Examples

• The chalk was rotated by hand. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• In this instance, also, the breech is rotated by hand. Frederick C. Bakewell. Great Facts.
• A vertical shaft D is rotated constantly by a band on pulley _d_. Edward W. Byrn. The Progress of Invention in the Nineteenth Century.
• The record is constantly rotated until its entire surface is coated. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• Although the weight is estimated at several tons, so sensitive is its poise on the mercury that the enormous lantern may be easily rotated by the pressure of one’s finger. Edward W. Byrn. The Progress of Invention in the Nineteenth Century.
• The revolving disk-shaped cutter E is rotated by a pulley and belt from a drum, which latter is made long enough to accommodate the travel of the frame. Edward W. Byrn. The Progress of Invention in the Nineteenth Century.
• This, when rotated about its diameter, to bring alternately the bird and cage into view, appears to bring the bird into the cage, or to put the rider on the horse’s back, as the case may be. Edward W. Byrn. The Progress of Invention in the Nineteenth Century.
• But if the wheel is rotated rapidly, the ear ceases to hear the various taps and recognizes a deep continuous musical tone. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• The original phonograph, as briefly noted above, was rotated by hand, and the cylinder was fed slowly longitudinally by means of a nut engaging a screw thread on the cylinder shaft. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• The glass disks within are rotated either by a small electric motor shown on the floor, or by a hand crank above. Edward W. Byrn. The Progress of Invention in the Nineteenth Century.
• This shaft at one end was fitted with a handle, by means of which the cylinder was rotated. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• In this the pistons consisted of two cog wheels, their leaves intermeshing, and rotated in an elliptical shaped chamber. William Henry Doolittle. Inventions in the Century.
• With steam a drum is rotated over which a hoisting wire-rope is wound, to which the elevator car is attached. William Henry Doolittle. Inventions in the Century.
• As the sewing proceeds, the horn is rotated so as to bring every part of the margin of the sole under the needle. Edward W. Byrn. The Progress of Invention in the Nineteenth Century.
• Successive charges may be made, and at the proper time the puddler is rotated, slowly at some stages and faster at others, until the operation is completed. William Henry Doolittle. Inventions in the Century.
• The speed with which the armature is rotated influences the strength of the induced current, and hence the armature is run at high speed. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• If a toothed wheel is mounted and slowly rotated, and a stiff card is held against the teeth of the wheel, a distinct tap is heard every time the card strikes the wheel. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
