Filed: 1924-02-14
Abstract: 233,069. Batty, J., and Bill, R. W. Feb. 14, 1924. Disc and like plate hinges; hinges readily separable about hinge pin. - The box-like cover 6 of a case for fuse units or other electrical apparatus is hinged to the batten 1 by pins 10 which are driven into overlapping portions of the batten and cover and are thus wholly enclosed and protected against corrosion. The two opposite sides 8, 9 of the cover may project beyond the other sides so as to overlap the top and bottom of the batten, or two sides of the batten may overlap the ends of the cover. Openings 11 adjacent the inner ends of the pins 10 allow a tool to be inserted under the ends of the pins to facilitate the removal thereof.

Title: Process for the separation of undistilled products
IPC: C10G21/14
Filed: 1934-02-06
Abstract: Hydrocarbon oils, other than distillates or residues, are fractionated at ordinary temperatures under pressure, by treating with natural gas consisting mainly of methane.  Crude heavy petroleum oil, or a topped lubricating oil is treated with a mixture of propane and butane to remove bituminous substances, and the resulting solution is treated with methane under pressure.  By increasing the pressure in stages oil fractions are formed and are separated. Specification 389,113 is referred to.

Filed: 1926-02-11
Abstract: 247,573. British Thomson-Houston Co., Ltd., (Assignees of Hall, C. 1.). Feb. 11, 1925. Recording by distinctive marks. - Relates to gas or other fluid-meters and consists in the provision of an attachment for recording the supply for the purpose of imposing an extra charge if the consumption over a given period is in excess of an agreed amount. As shown applied to an ordinary gas-meter 10, Fig. 2, the usual lever arms 14, 16 through links 18. 19 operate a shaft 22 driving the actuating shaft 24 of the dial indicating mechanism 11, and by means of a forked lever 25 embracing the arm 16 rock a shaft 26 extending through a gas-tight seal 29, Fig. 3, in the top of the meter casing. The shaft 26 at its upper end carries an arm 27 to which is connected one end of a flexible rod 28 mounted in a tube 13, the other end being operatively connected with a spring-controlled rod 39 co-operating with an arm, 37 on a pivot 36. Movement of the rod to and fro rocks the pivot 36 and through an arm 35, pawl 33, ratchet wheel 46, and train of gearing actuates a recording pen arm 49 in a radial direction over the surface of a record disc 50 driven by clockwork 53. The recording arm 49 is returned to zero periodically by the clock cam 52 operating a clutch to throw out the pinion 51, whereupon spring 54 returns the arm. A pin 40 on the rod 39 prevents withdrawal of the rod from the arm 37 and the rocking of the arm 35 is controlled by an adjustable stop 45 and the pin 47. The gas seal 29. Fig. 3, which is soldered into a hole in the top of the casing, is provided with a partition 30 enclosing a chamber 31 filled with a heavy grease.

Title: Sheaf shockers
IPC: A01D75/06
Filed: 1922-02-14
Abstract: 197,417. Hamill, O. F. Feb. 14, 1922. Reversing-gearing. - In a shocking-machine for grain, when the shock-forming member is full a trip lever engaging a pinion 57 meshing with a pinion 59 on a shaft 60 is operated, freeing the pinion and permitting the shaft 60 to rotate due to the pull of cables 62 supporting the shock-forming member as this member falls under its own weight. The pinion 57 carries cam plates 64, 65, Fig. 10, which are engaged by a roll 67 on the end of a spring-held rod 68 connected to the lever 69 operating the clutch sleeve 71. With the shocking-member in receiving position the roll is in a recess in the cam plates as shown in Fig. 12. On rotation of the pinion 57 the rod 68 is pushed outwards against the tension of its spring and moves the lever 69 to couple the shaft 60 to the member 73. The pinion 57 and the pulley 82 are thus positively driven, the shocking-member being pulled by cables to discharging position while the cam plate 64 moves under the roll 67. When the roll reaches the end 84 of the plate the rod is forced inwards by its spring, and moves the lever 69 to reverse the direction of rotation of the shaft 60; the cam plate 64 then moving round on the other side of the roll until the end 87 of the plate 65 engages the roll and forces the rod 68 outwards to disengage the clutch. The shocking-member during this movement is drawn by the cables 62 to receiving position. As it reaches receiving position the roll 67 passes under a spring portion of the plate 64 to its original position.

Title: Air distributing devices
IPC: F24F13/075
Filed: 1955-02-15
Abstract: 768,300. Screw fans. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Feb. 15, 1955 [Feb. 15, 1954], No. 4519/55. Class 110 (1). [Also in Group X] A fan imparting a conically-diverging whirling motion to the air comprises a grille interposed transversely in the path of the air stream and divided into four quadrants symmetricallydisposed about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the grille, each quadrant containing a group of parallel louvres arranged so that the groups of louvres in adjacent quadrants are perpendicular to each other. The grille of the enclosed fan shown is divided into quadrants A, B, C and D by a vertical slat 20 and a horizontal slat 22. Quadrants A and C are filled with vertical louvres 26, and quadrants B and D are filled with horizontal louvres 28. The impeller 32 rotates in a clockwise direction, producing an air stream which has a clockwise whirl and consequently meets each quadrant with a component of flow at right-angles to the length of the louvres. The louvres therefore tend to suppress the whirl, giving a concentrated air stream having a localized effect. If, however, the air stream is required to be distributed over a wider area, the louvres are arranged at right-angles to the positions shown, so that the air stream meets each quadrant with a component of flow along the length of the louvres. The louvres are then less effective in suppressing the whirl, and the air stream consequently describes the path of a conical spiral of increasing diameter and is dispensed throughout the room. If the impeller is of opposite pitch and rotates in an anticlockwise direction, the opposite effect will be obtained for a given disposition of the louvres. The body 14 of the fan is mounted, adjustably or otherwise, on a base 12 by legs 18. The fan may, however, be of the floor, wall, desk or window types and may be oscillating or non-oscillating. An existing fan grille having either horizontal or vertical louvres may be modified by clipping on additional louvres over two of the quadrants.
