The company's success was assured in 1851 when Dudgeon was granted a patent for a "portable hydraulic press" - a jack which proved to be vastly superior to the screw jacks in use at the time.  Other ingenious, practical devices for construction continued to pour out of Dudgeon's shop, among them were roller boiler tube expanders, pulling jacks, filter press jacks, steam forging hammers, railroad lifting equipment,  heavy plate hydraulic hole punches, steam powered street carriages (see below)  and many types and sizes of lifting jacks. Richard Dudgeon's Steam-powered street carriage is in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, DC. Painting by Carl Rakeman.                 Richard Dudgeon's contribution to innovation was recognized by the United States Postal Service via a 4 cent postage stamp.
