Patent GB-191407224-A (GB)
Title: New or Improved Hydraulic Machine.
Inventor: GEORG EMIL GJUKE
IPC: B25D9/12
Filed: 1914-03-21
Abstract: 7224. Gjuke, G. E. March 22, 1913, [Con vention date]. Void. [Published under section 91 of the Act.] Percussive drills.-In an hydraulic rock drill, the cylinder, slide valve, and valve-chest are so arranged that, on reversing the valve, no sudden change in pressure occurs, and the pressure in the cylinder can never exceed the maximum pressure in the supply pipe. In the form shown in Fig. 1, water from the inlet 8 passes through a port 20 to move the piston 1 forward. An annular groove 17 in the piston admits water from ports 3, 18 through the first port 21 and passage 5 to a chamber 10 to hold the valve 7 to 'the left. When the groove 17 connects the two ports 21, the chamber 10 is opened to exhaust 13 through passage 5, ports 21, passage 4, chamber 9, and ports 12, 11 in the valve; the valve then moves to the right. The rear end of the cylinder is then opened to exhaust, and the fluid constantly supplied through port 3 moves the piston rearward. When the groove 17 connects port 18 with the first port 21, the valve is moved to the left to admit fluid to the rear end of the cylinder again. A sudden increase in pressure is prevented by making the valve head 19 narrower than the port 20, so that the inlet 8 momentarily communicates with the exhaust 13. In the form shown in Fig. 2, fluid admitted through ports 25, 34, 27, 35 moves the piston forward. When the port 34 is closed, fluid in the chamber 40 moves the valve 24 forward, opening the rear cylinder space to exhaust through ports 32, 31, 33, 26, and the piston is then returned by the constant pressure at its forward end. When the piston closes ports 32, the increase of pressure causes the valve to move rearward, and fluid enters ports 35 to move the piston forward. The increase in the rear cylinder space due to the rearward movement of the valve prevents a sudden rise in pressure.

Abstract: 2139. Still & Sons, W. M., and Still, E. H. Feb. 10. Projectiles; projectile fuses. - Relates to percussion and time-fuses for grenades, and consists in releasing the striker by the action of throwing the grenade previous to the grenade being released from the hand, and in locking the striker of both hand and gun grenades by one or more springs which release the striker, when disengaged from a holding-device which moves in relation to the grenade at the moment this is thrown or discharged. In the hand grenade shown in Fig. 1, the firing-pin 6 is screwed to a sleeve handle 9 and locked by leaf springs 11. When the grenade is grasped by the handle and thrown, the shank 3 of the grenade moves slightly out of the handle, owing to the inertia of the grenade, and the springs 11 are released and swing out. As soon as the grenade leaves the hand of the thrower, the firing-pin is driven by its spring 7 against the percussion cap 5 and ignites the time-fuse 4. During transport, the fuse is held at safe by a pin 13. In a modification for percussion fuses of grenades fired from a gun, the springs 11 are released by the set-back of a sleeve on discharge, and release the firing-pin, which is held by a spring away from the percussion cap during flight until impact.

Title: Improvements in and relating Electric Switches.
IPC: H01H3/30
Filed: 1915-12-23
Abstract: 17,962. Trechmann, H. K., and British Thomson-Houston Co. Dec. 23. Switches, quick-break ; oil switches ; contacts.- The quick - break movement of a circuit-breaker, of the oil-immersed type, is made more rapid by mounting the light movable contact member loosely in relation to the quick - break mechanism and interposing in the loose connexion elastic means in which energy is stored when the switch is in the closed position and released during the first part of the break movement, so as to react upon the rapid-moving operating-mechanism and give a further acceleration to the contact member. In the construction shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the contact-carrying member 5 is mounted on a plunger-rod 7 capable of longitudinal movement in the guide-tube 8. A collar 9 is loosely mounted on the rod and is connected to the contact-carrying member by the spring 20. The collar is pivoted to links 10 forming part of the mechanism, which, when tripped, is given a quick movement under the action of a spring 12 and of gravity. When the switch is tripped, the collar 9 moves down the plunger-rod 7, carrying with it a trigger 13, which is pivoted thereon and serves to hold the contact-carrying member in the closed position with the spring 20 compressed. The cam-shaped end 16 of the trigger engages the cam 18 pivoted on the guide-tube 8, and the trigger is consequently disengaged from the pin 14 on the contact-carrying member, so that the spring 20, reacting on the moving mechanism, further accelerates the contact-carrying member. The spring 20 is placed under compression, and locked by the trigger, by the follow-up movement of the main quick-break mechanism. In a modified construction, the trigger has a detent at either end and is pivoted on the fixed sleeve. A laterally projecting pin on the top of the plunger-rod acts on the trigger and serves to liberate the contactcarrying member when the main mechanism moves after being tripped. In this form, the spring 20 is reset by the closing movement of the circuitbreaker. The arcing-contacts of a switch blade doubly accelerated, as described, may be themselves accelerated in relation to the switch blade itself.
