Machinery in the Crystal Palace - Clayton's tile, brick and pipe-making machine - the property of Mr. Henry Clayton, Atlas Works, Dorset Square. It consists of a vertical cylinder in which the clay is placed and a piston with a rod, cross head and side rods attached to two vertical racks that are moved by two pinions on a shaft, with a cog-wheel on the end, that takes into a pinion turned by a winch handle to which the power is applied. When the cylinder is filled with clay the piston is pressed down by the vertical racks, and squeezes the clay out through the die plate fixed to the bottom. There are two cylinders, each 18 inches diameter, attached by swing brackets, so that whilst one cylinder is at work the other is on the table at the back, being filled with clay, ready to take the place of the first described one as soon as it is emptied. This version has an added extention with box under the cylinder. 固opFoto *** Local Caption ***
