COPPENBUSEN v. FOLKE et al.

[Betts' Scr. Bk. 681.]

Circuit Court, S. D. New York.

Feb. 24, 1862.

PATENTS FOR INVENTIONS—“TIN FOIL”—OIL PATENTS—VALIDITY.

[In equity. Bill by Conrad Coppenbusen to restrain the infringement of certain patents by the defendants, Oscar Folke, Eberhard Faber, Edward Simon, and others.]

Charles M. Keller, E. W. Stoughton, and George D. Sargeant, for complainant.

John Ashmead and W. J. A. Fuller, for defendants.

Before NELSON, Circuit Justice, and SHIPMAN, District Judge.

PER CURIAM. Both patents of L. Otto P. Meyer, known as the “tin foil” and the “oil” patents, for improved methods of vulcanizing hard rubber compound, embossed and plain surfaces, are valid; the re-issued patent covers no more than the original invention. It is also adjudged that the respondents have infringed both patents; that an injunction be issued, and an order of reference to account.
