To all fivhom it ma/y .concem Be it known that I, H. E.

Figurel of the drawings is a representation of y a plan Figure 2 is av longitudinal sectionof the same.

,The object of myinvention is to provdefor family nse-aehurn, operated with a .vertical dasher, that shall be more eicient and useful than anysimilar device. heretofore invented; and

ism by which th'dasher is operated.

Butteris held in creamV and milk in su1all`capsules,

j andthe process` called churning consists in breaking the caps ofthese capsules and gathering the butter i so released 'into one mass. f

To accomplish this resultwith` expedition, regard must be paid to the temperature of the uid, but the `principal means necessary consist in sharp, rapid move-l ments of a dasher, so as to keep the fluid ineonstant and thorough agitation.

My'device enables Y the operator to accomplish this object, and it is so arranged that it may be applied to nearly all upright churns without diliculty.

` The letter A of the drawings represents an ordinary i uprightchurn,- to which my Adevice may be attached.v

'The letter B is a ring, designed for adjustment by set-screws a around the top of the churn,in the man` ner shown. l l 'l The `letters O are standards attachedl to the ring B and having 'cross-piece b setin dovetails 4upon their summits. This cross-piece is removable.

The letter c isl a. crank-shaft, and

d is a pinion adjusted thereon, in the manner represented. A i i The letter c' is a shaft, having a crank, f, at its centr'e, a small pinion, g, Working with the pinion d, and a ily-Wheel, 71., as represente The letter i is a short standard aixed tothe ring -dasher'handle, as shown in fig. 2. y The letter s is the upper end of `the dasher-handle,

hinged or pivoted to the handle itself in such manner as to allow suilcient play therefor, without binding or wedgin'g -in the cover'of the churn.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-` f' The combination and arrangement of the ring B, withits set-screws, standards C and i, shafts e and e, pinions d, and slottedarm, and pivoted dasher-handle for the purposes .speciiied In testimony that I claim the above, I have heres, when constructed andfoperating substantially as and' nes'ses.
