All mechanical patents were formally written and published in patent books in the year in which they were registered. Copies of these books can be found at a handful of libraries in the UK. All of the mechanical patents available on this website were originally searched at the Business and Intellectual Property Centre of the British Library in London. However, this library was unable to make copies because the books in their collection were in a fragile state. Instead, copies were obtained from the reference desk at the British Library in Sheffield. Details regarding how the patent research was accomplished can be found at Patent/Design Representation Research.
