  • Apparatus for agitating and polishing materials
    Patent number: 4143491
    Abstract: A vibratory polishing machine for minerals, gem stones and the like in which a carriage is resiliently mounted to a base and is provided with a motor fixedly mounted to the carriage. The motor output shaft is eccentrically connected via a crank to a drum supported on the carriage. Activation of the motor vibrates one end of the drum while the other end of the drum pivotally mounted on the carriage remains relatively stationary. The drum vibration causes materials inside the drum to rotate continuously in a circular path providing a polishing action.
