drives the toothed wheel H together with the trillis I, which then further makes the mühlstein millstone M rotate. The beutel-stange bolting rod is K; it is arranged as was instructed above for the previous mills.

Note: These types of weight mills can be most conveniently arranged on a high tower so that one does not have to wind them up so often. These mills can be easily wound up with a wheel or haspel winch/reel, according to the artist's preference.

A Weight Mill.

This is another type of mill which is pulled and driven by the counterweight B. The cylinder A is turned by the help of two men via the windstangen winding bars F, F. A fairly strong rope is then wound around this cylinder, which is subsequently pulled through the pulleys at H, H, H, H, and the weight is hung at B. Whereby it is to be noted that one can hang or remove another stone or weight I for the increase or decrease of the power. Furthermore, above the cylinder A, the horizontal kam-rad cogwheel C is arranged, which engages with its teeth into the sticks at K of the wheel D, and thus drives the trillis lantern pinion E together with the mühlstein millstone F.

Note: The cylinder A should be secured with a sperr-feder ratchet/pawl, just as happens with the common cylinders of clocks, so that it cannot run down too quickly.

A Weight Mill.

This mill is almost equal to the previous one, and is only different in that it has two sets of stones. It is wound up by the haspel-waltze winch cylinder G, at which the weight H is hung. On the cylinder G, one further arranges the upward-standing, side-toothed wheel E, which further engages in the trillis of the wheel D, and then

drives the wheel A through the trillis C and B, as the figure clearly shows.

The XXVII. Figure.

A Weight Mill.

This mill is also wound up, like the previous one, with a cylinder A which has a ratchet wheel, which engages with the side teeth into the trillis of the wheel C, and thus further drives the wheel D together with the trillis E. The bolting rod can be arranged at F.

The XXVIII. Figure.

A Weight Mill.

This is another type of weight mill. It is wound up with a counterweight A, through the crank and the toothed wheel at K. At the wheel L, at C, a ratchet wheel should be arranged—just as with the cylinders of common clocks—on the rope cylinder B, so that in winding up, it cannot quickly return. The cylinder B further has a trillis at D, which grips the stirn-rad spur wheel E with teeth, and through this makes the large side-toothed wheel F rotate. Which large wheel finally grips the trillis M with its teeth, and still further leads the toothed horizontal wheel G together with the trillis H around, and through the arrangement at I, the grain is ground, either by a mühlstein millstone or as shown here in the figure.

The XXIX. Figure.

A Weight Mill.

This type is wound up by two counterweights, alternately, with ropes pulled through wechsel-scheiben change-pulleys/interchangeable discs. The ropes should wind themselves around the cylinder K. The stirn-rad spur wheel, which is fastened to the cylinder K, engages with its cog into the trillis at M, which subsequently drives the other toothed wheel L and makes the trillis upon which the mühlstein millstone P is fastened rotate.
