Patent GB-191316376-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Coin Freed Prepayment Devices for Telephone Systems.
IPC: H04M17/02
Filed: 1913-07-16
Granted: 1914-01-01
Abstract: 16,376. Siemens & Halske Akt.-Ges. July 17, 1912, [Convention date]. Hiring telephones.-Relates to prepayment devices for subscribers' stations in telephone systems, in which a coin must be inserted before the apparatus can be actuated for the purpose of setting up a connexion, and in which the coin can be returned if the wanted subscriber's line is engaged. According to this invention, three co-operating levers are employed, one of which is set by the inserted coin to effect the requisite circuit changes. In the arrangement shown in Fig. '5, which represents an automatic system, the impulse-sender 13 is normally shortcircuited bv contacts 5. On the insertion of a coin 1, the contacts 5 are opened and contacts 6 closed so as to short-circuit the microphone. The selectors can then be set, for example by means of. impulses over a relay A. If the wanted subscriber answers the call, the switches 5, 6 must be restored to their original 'position so as to put the microphone into action, this movement being accompanied by the discharge of the coin into the money-box. If, on the other hand, no answer is received, the depression of a key 10 returns the coin to the calling subscriber, and opens contacts 12, to effect the release of the selectors, while at the same time contacts 5, 6 are returned to the normal position. A magnet M in the ordinary working of the system releases the selectors that have been set, when contacts a2, v controlled by the relay A and a slow-acting relay V are closed. When, however, a subscriber calls up a special station, such as that of a trunk-record or enquiry operator, it is required that the releasing magnet M should remain inoperative after the key 10 has been depressed to return the coin. This is brought about by means of a relay V, which is energized when a connexion is set up with the special station, and keeps the circuit of the magnet M open until a switch 14 at the special station is operated. Coin action, weight.-The coin 1, dropped down a shoot 2, moves a lever 4 to change the position of the contacts 5, 6, as described, and rests between this lever and another one 3, Fig. 2. If, after the call is answered, a key 7 is depressed, a lever 8. shifts the lever 3,..as shown in Fig. 3, and directs the released coin into the money-box, the lever 4 being meanwhile held by a catch 9. When the key 7 is released, the lever 8 returns and frees the lever 4 from the detent 9, so that the contacts 5, 6 resume their normal position and the conversation can take place. By pressing a key 10 instead of the key 7, the ]ever 3 is moved directly, and the coin falls out of the apparatus through a channel 11.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Apparatus for Lifting Hay, Straw and the like.
Inventor: APPLEBY MARK
IPC: A01D87/08
Filed: 1913-08-15
Granted: 1914-07-30
Abstract: 18,575. Appleby, M. Aug. 15. Load, grasping and releasing. - Hay and like material is lifted on a spiral prong mounted on a swivel, the prong rotating when it is desired to deposit the load. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the prong a has a cross-bar b and is swivelled to a suspending - shackle c. The material is retained on the prong by a tine g pivoted on a sleeve f mounted between collars c on the prong, and controlled by a cord h connected to a lever k which, in the position shown, prevents the bar b from rotating. On pulling the cord m the lever k is lowered and the tine g raised. The weight of the material rotates the prong and the load is deposited. A pair of retaining-tines may be employed. In a modification, Fig. 5, a pair of spiral prongs a are employed. The prongs have star-wheels f at the upper ends gearing with star-wheels o normally locked by levers q but capable of being released bv a cord u. In a further modification, the star-wheel and catch lever are used in the arrangement shown in Fig. 1.

Granted: 1915-05-13
Abstract: 11,999. British United Shoe Machinery Co., [United Shoe Machinery Co.]. May 15. Rotating-tool machines and apparatus. - In a buffing - machine for leather &c., having a buffing-roller 5 adapted to project through a table 15 angularly adjustable about the axis of the shaft 19 of one of two lower feed-rollers 17 by means of a screw 21, means are provided, for ensuring that, independently of the thickness of the material operated on, an amount of material predetermined by the adjustment of the table relatively to the buffing-roller shall be removed, comprising a presser-roller 45 mounted to yield independently of the upper feeding-rollers 27 but connected with and positioned by these so that the pressure of the presser-roller on the material is constant, irrespective of the original thickness of the material. The upper feed-rollers are journaled in a frame 25 slidable on guide-rods 23 and suspended by posts 31 from the arms of a bar 49, slidably mounted on the guide-rods, and pressed downwardly by adjustable springs 51, and the presser-roller is mounted in a carrier 47, also slidable on the guide-rods, and pressed by a spring 55 which may be adjustable; the carrier 47 thus moves up and down with the feed-roller frame, but its downward movement is limited by stops 59 so that there is about 1/16 inch play between the carrier and the upper surface of the frame. The two feed-rollers 27 are constrained to move vertically by equal amounts by means of links 35 pivoted to the posts 31 at 39 and to the standards 33 at 37, the inner ends of the links being pivoted to slide-blocks located in vertical guideways in the frame 25. The feedrollers are driven by spur-gearing from a pulley 75 driven from a countershaft 13; a blower may be mounted on the bed 1 of the machine. A cleaning-brush 95 for the buffer is provided adapted to be moved by a handle 103, and a brush 63, driven by belting from the countershaft, is arranged beneath an adjustable spring- pressed foot 61 whereby the work, as it emerges, is pressed against the brush; the buffing-rolley is driven by a belt from the countershaft.
