Recently I had the good fortune to acquire a number of English glass

patents that date from ca 1885 to 1904.  These include patents from

England, Germany, France, and the United States.  One of the 1904 patents

has a nicely detailed profile drawing of the Owens Bottle Machine Company’s

furnace that was developed to work with the Owens automatic bottle-blowing

machine.  This furnace featured a revolving circular pan from which the

Owens machine sucked glass into the blank molds.  I have done a scan of

that drawing and colored in some of the components of the furnace.  If you

would like to have a copy of this scan contact me off line.
