Hammer Exhibit – Sketch of Defendant’s Motor
Drawing
A hand-drawn and partially colored technical illustration depicting a motor, likely used as part of a legal case or patent dispute. The document features three labeled diagrams (Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3) showcasing different views of the motor's components and structure. The drawing includes detailed mechanical parts, such as rotating disks, a cylindrical body, and a framework supporting the motor.
The heading "Hammer Exhibit – Sketch of Defendant’s Motor" suggests that this diagram was used in a court case or patent litigation related to electrical or mechanical engineering. Given that Lewis H. Latimer was instrumental in early electrical patents and worked on legal defenses for inventors, this exhibit could be linked to his expert testimony or patent defense work in the late 19th or early 20th century.
