Abstract: 360,561. Thumb and lift latches. HARRISON & SONS, Ltd., H. and HARRISON, F. H., Villiers Street, Willenhall, Staffordshire. Sept. 8, 1930, No. 26731. [Class 44.] A thumb latch which is reversible for use either way up has its latch arm B spring-biased to a midposition so that it is moveable in either direction against spring action. As shown, the arm B is pivoted to the upper plate C of a casing secured to, or in place over, a baseplate A by the attaching screws &c. and is guided by a strap a punched up integral from plate A. The thumb-lever E passes through slots in the plates A, C, sufficiently long to leave spaces c<3> through which the lever may be inserted at either side of arm B, so that the latch may be used on either hand. The major cross section of lever E is horizontal to minimize the required spaces c<3>, and the lever has lateral projections e serving as pivots, housed under pressed-up portions f of the back-plate F of the handle G, and secured in place by the portion g of the handle. A member H having a thumb-piece, and a neck working in a slot c<4> in plate C, is pivoted to latch arm B. When the thumb-piece is horizontal, the latch arm is free for operation, but the latch arm is locked when the thumb-piece is vertical by the edges of the neck engaging the upper and lower edges of the slot. The latch-arm is biased to midposition by a plate spring D housed in the casing and bearing against the inner end of the arm which may be straight, as shown, or concave.

Abstract: 298,892. Bienaime, R. Oct. 15, 1927, [Convention date]. Hook fastenings; grips, sliding wedge and roller type.-A fastening device, applicable generally, but described as applied to a motor-car bonnet, comprises an apertured member a, adapted to be engaged by one part of the fastening and drawn thereby against the action of springs d into a position where it can be engaged and held by a second part of the fastening. Fig. 1 shows an operating lever f pivoted at i to a bracket on the bonnet c and provided with hook members g<1>, h<1> pivoted at j, i respectively and urged towards each other by a spring k, inward move ment of hook h<1> being limited by a stop h<2> engaging the lever f. When the bonnet is lowered, member a is guided between two plates carried by the bonnet and having apertures e<0>, e<00>. Hook g<1> passes through aperture e<0> into the aperture a<0> in member a and when the lever f is depressed, hook g<1> raises member a against the action of springs d to a position in which hook h<1> snaps through aperture e<00> into engagement with aperture a<0> and secures the bonnet. When lever f is raised, stop h<2> causes the pivotal movement of book h' out of engagement and hook g<1> is moved clear of member a by contact with an abutment l, thus releasing the bonnet. Fig. 4 shows a modification in which the fastening members g, h are pivoted to links g<3>, h<3>, themselves pivoted at i and provided with movementlimiting stops g<2>, h<2>, and the hook h<1> is replaced by a roller h<4> adapted to engage frictionally in a wedge-shaped space between member a and an abutment e carried by the bonnet.

Title: Improvements in and relating to automatic safety brakes
IPC: B61H11/02
Filed: 1921-10-10
Abstract: 191,173. Miyagi, T. Oct. 10, 1921. Fluid-pressure; hand actuated; force-transmitting mechanism-Movement of the draw-bar of a vehicle consequent upon the overrunnig of the vehicle with respect to the locomotive or other vehicle consequent upon the overrunning of the brake cylinder so as to apply the brakes. The brakes may also be applied bv hand either directly or by the brake cylinder. The draw-bars 15 are connected by link 14, lever 13 and rods 11, 12 to the rotary valve member 7 which has two ports 8, 9 adapted to register with ports 5, 6 in the upper and lower fixed valve members 2, 10. The chamber of the member 10 is connected by the pipe 18 with the brake cylinder 19; the chambers 2<1>, 2<11> of the member 2 are respectively connected with the train-pipe 1 and to a cavity 22 in the rotary member 42 of a second valve by which the brakes can be operated bv hand through connections 47. The valve cavity 22 normally connects the pipe 21 from the valve chamber 2<11> with an exhaust port so that the brake cylinder is exhausted. If however the locomotive is retarded, the inward movement of the draw-bar 15 of the vehicle turns the valve member 7 so that the port 8 thereof is moved out of register with the ports 6 in the chambers 21<1>, 10 and the port 9 is moved into register with the ports 5 whereby the brake cylinder is cut off from the exhaust and connected to the supply pipe 1, 1x. To apply the brakes by hand, the valve member 42 can be turned by the chain 47 to bring the cavity 22 into register with a branch pipe 40 from the train-pipe 1 and a pipe leading to the brake cylinder. To enable the brakes to be applied directly by hand, the brake piston-rod, the rods 29, 30 from the brake blocks or equivalent and the rods 34, 35 connected to the hand-wheels 36 are connected respectively to discs 25, 28 and 31 mounted to turn upon the shaft 37. The discs 25 and 28 have each a pair of pins 26, 27 and 32, 33 for engagement with projections respectively on the discs 28 and 31 whereby the disc 28 can be turned independently either by the disc 25 and the piston of the brake cylinder 19 or by the hand-actuated disc 31.

Abstract: 337,121. Robertson, J. H. Sept. 5, 1929. Variable-speed friction gearing controlled by a centrifugal governor is driven through multiplying gearing so as to be suitable for use with slow-running engines upon light locomotives. The gearing shown is as described in Specification 306,752 with a driving-disc a moved axially by the governor g to vary the speed, while resisting torque tends to move driven member b to its lowestspeed eccentric position. The governor preferably comprises weighted cams g, as described in Specification 321,588, regulated manually from a thrust collar h<1>, as described in Specification 322,906. According to the invention, the shaft a2 of the governor and friction gear is driven from engine shaft j<1> through a gearing-up pair j, k, which may be toothed, as shown, or chain. A reducing train c', c<2>, c<3> is incorporated in the radius arm c of the driven member b, as described in Specification 314,700, so that shaft d is driven at a suitable range of speeds.

Title: Improvements in smelting of zinciferous ore
IPC: C22B4/04
Filed: 1950-11-06
Abstract: Oxidic zinciferous ores are smelted in an electric furnace with a carbonaceous reducing agent so that the zinc vapour produced is substantially free of dust-forming impurities and the slag is substantially zinc-free.  The ore and reducing agent are charged into the furnace in a loose dry condition, the charge having an iron oxide content sufficient to provide by partial reduction thereof a body of molten iron product underlying the slag and at least 1 1/2 per cent by weight of non-oxide (calculated as Fe) in the molten slag; the amount of reducing material is correlated to the zinc oxide and non-oxide components of the charge so as to effect reduction of all the zinc oxide component of the ore to metallic zinc while effecting reduction of only such portion of the iron oxide component of the charge as to leave in the slag at least 1 1/2 but not more than 6 per cent by weight of iron oxide (calculated as Fe); the lime and silica contents of the charge are adjusted to produce slag in which the ratio of CaO to SiO2 is within the range of 0.8:1 to 1.4:1, and the dry charge is smelted on the surface of the molten slag at a temperature not in excess of 1450 DEG C.  The furnace may be heated by a combination of submerged arc and slag resistance heating with a peripheral resistance within the range of 0.2 to 0.8 inch-ohm. A crackable hydrocarbon may also be introduced into the furnace atmosphere to produce a floating cloud of incandescent carbon particles.  The charge components may be fed separately, in simple admixture or as agglomerates.  Specifications 601,246, 601,247, 620,644, 648,529 and 657,205 are referred to.
