Caoutchouc is the technical or archaic term for natural raw rubber, a highly elastic, tenacious, and waterproof plant substance. Abstract: I have invented, made, and applied to use a new and useful improvement in the preparing, coloring, and applying India-rubber to cloth of all kinds, leather, and other articles without the use of a solvent, which I call "Chaffee's Improvement in Rubber". The India rubber undergoes an operation preparatory to its being applied to the cloth, and other articles, and the following is a description of that part of the machinery, and apparatus employed for the purpose. A hollow cylinder, or roller six feet long, and twenty seven inches in diameter heated by steam, or otherwise to about two hundred degrees of Fahrenheit, is surmounted by another cylinder of like length, and heated in like manner, and eighteen inches in diameter, the large, and small cylinders come in contact with each other on one side at about ten inches distant from the top of the larger one. The large cylinder revolves much faster than the small one, so that there is a compound rolling, and slipping action between the cylinders. Five bars are placed on the top of the large cylinder side by side each other leaving a space of about three fourths of an inch between them, the bars are one and a half inch thick, twelve inches wide, and about six feet long, the edges which lie in contact with the cylinder are convex or circular, and so constructed that when one corner of the edge touches it, the other recedes from it thus leaving a wedge like space for the rubber to enter beneath the bars. What I mean by the corner of the edge is the angles formed by the two sides of the bars, and their circular edges, the one being; an acute, and the other an obtuse angle, which are more or less acute or obtuse according to their situation on the cylinder, the said bars being substitutes for so many cylinders, but are better adapted to sifting the coloring between them, the), are held in contact with the cylinder, or nearly so by weights or screws arranged for the purpose. If the rubber is to be colored, the coloring matter in fine powder should be sifted, or otherwise put into the spaces between the bars where it will be incorporated with the rubber as it passes between the bars and the cylinders. Claim: The preparation, and application of India rubber to all kinds of cloths, leathers, and other like substances without the use of a solvent in the manner aforesaid.

Listed in A List of Patents Issued by the United States, from 1790 to 1847, pgs. 60 & 388. Abstract: This improvement in the manufacture of spoons consists in plating and cutting a bar of silver in the shape, thickness and just proportions of a spoon by means of a mill in all its outlines precisely like a common plater's mill. A common plater's mill with eight inch rolls may be converted to this purpose, and as these are in common use, and well known, further description is deemed unnecessary. The drawing exhibits its appearance. The first operation of this mill is to take a bar of silver, about half an inch shorter than the spoon required. This must be rolled through widthwise, the bar of silver should be very little thicker than the thickest part of the spoon handle required, and as wide as the handle at the shoulder. One end of this bar will then be placed directly over the center of the rise, or peen marked a, upon the upper roller, and the mill turned, and it will come through plated, and widened at one end in the shape of a spoon bowl, and at the other widened like the fiat part of a spoon handle. Claim: The shaping of a roller of a common plater's mill, so that it shall receive a bar of silver widthwise, and roll it into the shape of a spoon, one end for the bowl, and the other for the handle, leaving the bowl in its proper shape with the silver thickest at the edges and thinnest in the middle, and this to be made separate from though designed for a cutter.
