Description: |
| Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. There are no patent drawings available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
For an improvement in the Power Loom, for weaving diaper, and other figured fabrics; James M. Hoggan, an alien, who has resided two years in the United States; New Haven, Connecticut, October 14.
We shall not attempt to epitomize the description of this loom, which is of great length, and refers to drawings, in which the machine is minutely and fully represented. Many parts of it are, of course, perfectly similar to the power looms previously in use; the running gear, and the mode of communicating the power, do not differ from those employed in the broadcloth power loom. The points claimed relate exclusively to the construction and arrangement of the parts by which the figures are formed.
