Abstract: 508,556. Hydraulic presses. RUSSELL, G. A. V., and IMPERIAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES, Ltd. Dec. 31, 1937, No. 36291. [Class 69 (ii)] In an hydraulically-operated extrusion, drawing and like press in which an auxiliary ram or rams 4 are provided for returning the main ram 2 after a working stroke, the auxiliary cylinder or cylinders 3 are juxtaposed end-toend with respect to the main cylinder 1 and the valves controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid to the cylinders are provided with remote control means and are housed in a block 9 connecting the ends of the cylinders and forming a distance piece between the main cylinder and the auxiliary cylinder or cylinders. Admission and exhaust valves 5, 6 respectively are provided in the block 9 for the main cylinder 1 and similar valves 7, 8 are provided for the auxiliary cylinder, and are connected by passages 48, 49, 50 to the supply main 55 and exhaust main 53. The stems 22, 23 of the four valves are pivoted to a rocker-member 10 which can be actuated manually if desired. As shown, however, the actuation is obtained through a servomotor system comprising a pair of plungers 30 beneath either of which fluid. may be admitted according to the position of a valve 45 operated by a solenoid 44 controlled by a lever 43 adapted to close either of two pairs of contacts la, 2a or 3a, 4a. A trip member 40 on the cross-head 39 of the main ram engages at the ends of the stroke and opens switches 41 or 42 so that the solenoid 44 becomes de-energized and the valve 45 closed. During movement of the rams, the fluid pressure in the servo-system acts on a piston 38 so as to keep closed a valve 36 in the connection 37 between the mains 53, 55. When one of the switches 41, 42 is opened, the valve 36 opens and short-circuits the pressure fluid. A valve 33 is provided in another connection between the mains 53, 55 for adjusting the speed of the press. Instead of a servomotor system, a suitable manually-operated linkage may be employed for actuating the control valves.

[Also in Group XXXIV] In a liquid-cooled rotatable drum for a friction brake or clutch, a continuous partition member is provided within a closed chamber formed in the drum to direct the flow of heated liquid from the inner surface of a cylindrical wall of the chamber directly opposite a cylindrical frictional surface towards the innermost portion of the chamber along one of the faces of the partition member and then direct the flow back of cooled liquid along the other face of partition member. In the embodiment illustrated, a liquid-cooled brake drum is constructed of aluminium or magnesium integrally with the vehicle wheel, as shown in Fig. 1, and is formed as a hollow chamber filled with a cooling liquid (viz. water) and includes a hub portion 4 having spaced-apart walls 5, 6 extending radially outwardly therefrom, the latter wall merging into cylindrical portion 8 forming also part of the wheel rim. The walls 5, 6 are connected by means of a plurality of radial fins 9 which also connect the walls with a continuous partition member 10. When the friction lining 35 of the brake shoe or shoes 34 engages frictionally the inner surface of the brake drum friction element 21a, the liquid contained in the hollow chamber is heated and water is circulated by a thermo-syphon effect from the reservoir portion 13 adjacent the hub 4 and, due to the presence of the partition member 10, the flow is directed through radial passages. 15, through passages 40 between V-shaped teeth 25 formed in the outer surface of the friction element 21a and via chambers 11a and 14 back to the reservoir portion 13. A filler plug 36 is provided for initial filling of the hollow chamber and a relief valve 38 prevents the formation of high vapour pressure inside the chamber. The outer wall 6 is additionally cooled by the passage of air drawn in at the centre portion of the hub past cooling fins 16, 17 to an outlet at the periphery 21 of the brake drum. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 4, the brake is of the external contracting band type in which a continuous conical partition member 48 is formed integrally with fins in a cooling chamber 49 of the brake drum 43.
