What is this antique iron kitchen? item pat. 1884

Does anyone recognize this item? It is solid cast iron, and it is marked Pat. Mar. 1884.
I think it’s something to do with shaping tarts or pastry shells, but not sure. It has an overall length of 7", and the round part is about 3" in diameter.

Thanks, Barntiques for your reply! I had forgotten about google’s patent search. I had tried searching on the government patent office website, but I wasn’t able to get the pictures, etc. to load. Google’s patent search makes much easier to search.

I’ve looked at hundreds of items on google patents, so many items that I got one of these notices, [URL removed]
“Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it’s really you sending the requests, and not a robot”

Still haven’t found it, it’s a bit tricky without a specific date, I have only the month and year, March 1884. Tried using key words, too, with no luck.

FabFinds, thanks for that link, will check it out!

Process, it will be for sale, sooner or later….
