Channel-Ring Dasher Churn: A Hollow Column of Cream Traps Air at Every Stroke

Moses D. Wells of Morgantown, Virginia, received US 13,281, dated 17 July 1855, for a dasher of a central disk and a ring "separated by a passage or channel whose sides incline inward and upward, toward the dasher shaft." Each down stroke throws up a hollow column of cream that closes over air. This rung prints the dasher and lever bracket, builds the churn and makes butter.
