The mixing mill should, like the washing rolls, be provided withinstantaneous safety-clutches, as already described (figs. 12 and 12a),the most suitable being those based on the friction-clutch principle. A little further consideration may now be given to the mixingmills fitted with revolving sieves, which have been already men- tvirss.,. Fig. 20. tioned. (The rights of manufacturing these machines have beenacquired by C. G. Haubold, jun., a firm of engineers in Chemnitz.)The rolls are constructed as in an ordinary mixing mill, but abovethe front roll at a height of about 20 to 25 cm. (8 to 10 inches) thereis fixed a cylindrical sieve containing a revolving brush, drivenby toothed-wheel gearing from the axle of the roll (fig. 21). Thecylinder can be raised in its bearings in a backward direction bymeans of an eccentric movement, in order to throw it out of sifted material falls into a funnel-shaped sieve fixed belowthe cylinder, and kept in continuous vibration by means of an 46 RDBBER MANUFACTURE. eccentric so that the materials passing through the cylindricalsieve are passed through the second sieve on to the rubber. Acelluloid cover is fitted over the whole sifting apparatus in sucha way that it can b
