Title: Improvements in paper feeding devices for typewriting machines
IPC: B41J13/16
Filed: 1920-01-02
Abstract: 160,946. James, R. W., (Remington Typewriter Co.). Jan. 2, 1920. Sheet feeding and guiding arrangements.-(i) The feed-roller mountings are constructed in the manner described below in order to equalize the pressure of the feed-rollers, while permitting the latter to accommodate themselves to different thicknesses of paper. The rear feed-rollers 10, Figs. 3 and 6, are arranged in pairs, each pair being carried by a support 30 which is mounted loosely on a spring-urged hinged plate 21 and is engaged midway between the feed-rollers by a finger 24 on the plate. As shown, the support 30 is apertured at the middle to engage loosely a neck in a collar 33 on the plate 21, and the finger passes through a slot in the support and engages the spindle 32 of the feed-rollers. The feed-rollers can move bodily with the support and plate, and the support can rock slightly about a vertical axis, the finger 24 preventing movement about an horizontal axis. The plate is urged towards the platen roller 1 by a wire spring 41 which engages fingers 35 on the plate and is supported in the ears 40 of a bracket 37 on the carriage 2. The front feed-rollers 11, Figs. 1 and 6, are carried by a single hinged plate 42 having two T-head parts 45 each carrying a pair of feed-rollers. Fingers 44 on the plate engage a wire spring 41 on the bracket 37. The parts 45 can yield horizontally about the vertical axis of the flexible parts 46 to permit of the feedrollers adjusting themselves to different thicknesses of paper. (2) A paper-apron 12 is provided with hinged arms 54 and is urged towards the platen roller by a plate-spring 55 secured to the bracket 37. A pressing-plate 13, serving also as a scale, is secured to the paper-apron by screws 52 and nuts 53. (3) A lever 57 for releasing the feed-rollers and the pressing-plate is pivoted on a stud 58 on the carriage and is formed with a cam 61 engaging a pin 62 on the plate 21. When the lever is drawn forwards, the plate 21 is rocked to release the rear feed-rollers, and humps 36 on the fingers 35 engage the fingers 44 and rock the plate 42, thereby releasing the front feed-rollers; further, the spindles 48 of the front feed-rollers engage hooks 56 on the apron and thereby rock the apron and release the pressing-plate. The cam 61 is formed with a concentric part for retaining the parts in the released position. The movements of the releasing- lever are limited by the platen bearing. The plates 21, 42 and the arms 54 of the paper-apron are hinged to plates 15 which are detachably secured by screws 16 and dowels to the base 2 of the carriage. Specification 159,705 is referred to. Paper-shelves.-Folding bars 14, serving as a paper-shelf, are pivoted to the fingers 24 by means of screws 26 provided with friction washers 27.

IPC: H01J17/49
Filed: 1932-01-06
Abstract: 397,107. Discharge apparatus. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd., Crown House, Aldwych, London.-(Assignees of Foulke, T. E. ; 30, Evelyn Place, Nutley, New Jersey, U.S.A.) Jan. 6, 1932, No. 423. Convention date, Jan. 6, 1931. [Class 39 (i).] A cathode-glow device has at least one electrode consisting of a foundation (e.g. of nickel) having a portion of its surface to which the glow is to be confined coated with an activating substance having a work function lower than that of aluminium, whilst the remainder is coated with a material having a higher work function than that of the activating substance ; the material is such that activating substance deposited thereon is "poisoned," i.e. does not endow the material with its own lower work function. The activating substance may be barium mixed with barium oxide, whilst the other coating may be of aluminium, aluminium oxide, antimony, selenium or copper oxide. The electrode may be kept cool by mixing a material of high thermal emissivity, e.g. carbon, with the aluminium or equivalent coating. In one construction, as shown in the Figure, two plane semicircular electrodes 4 are mounted 1 mm. apart in the same plane. One face of the electrodes is coated with alkali or alkaline earth metals or compounds, preferably by the method set forth in Specification 362,347, whilst the other face is covered with finely powdered aluminium, aluminium oxide, copper oxide, antimony, selenium, or osmium. The substance is affixed bv a binder such as nitrocellulose dissolved in amyl acetate, which is reduced to carbon on heating. The edges of the electrodes 4 are turned downwards in a 90 arc having a radius of a few millimetres. It is stated that this reduces blackening of the bulb by sputtering. The filling may be neon or helium with a small percentage of argon at a pressure of 15-60 mm. In a modification, part of the surface of the electrodes, representing a letter or sign, may be covered with the activating substance and the remainder with the material of high work function, or vice versa. The electrodes may be semi-cylindrical or quadrants of a sphere. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specifications 173,737 and 220,040, [both in Class 39 (i), Electric lamps, Arc &c.].

Title: Improvements in or relating to the manufacture of pile fabrics
IPC: D03D27/06
Filed: 1926-01-07
Abstract: 261,569. Smith, G. R. Jan. 7, 1926. Pile-fabric looms.-In looms for weaving carpets and like loop-pile fabrics, at least two sets of grippers for the selected pile warps are provided between the pile warp beam or creel and the loop-forming mechanism, so that one row of loops may be cut before the next row is formed, and the tension on the pile warps is reduced. As shown, three sets of grippers f, g, h are employed. 'The grippers f comprise a series of teeth adapted to pierce the pile threads e and to move in curved guides f<1> so that, as the grippers rise and fall, thev move substantially in an arc of a circle centred at the fell d of the fabric. The grippers g, which may be similar to the grippers f, comprise sets of fixed and relatively-movable notched bars adapted to clamp the pile thread. The grippers h comprise notched bars h<2> adapted to co-operate with rods h<1> for clamping the pile threads from the creels. When a pile warp beam is employed, the grippers h may be dispensed with. In operation, the selected pile warps are raised into engagement with the grippers f, which then rise. The pile warps are then moved into engagement with the grippers g, which close and clamp these. The grippers then move forwardly and draw off sufficient pile warps to form the loops, and the grippers h close. As the pile warps descend, they are forced from the grippers f, g, so that the loop-forming means may draw forward the slack, the grippers g being opened. The rearmost grippers h move forwardly as the binder picks are being woven in, and remain closed until the grippers g are again ready to move forwardly. when the grippers h open and move to their initial position. The loops may be formed over transverse wires, by means of hooks, or otherwise.

Abstract: 1385301 Cooling wire COMPAGNIE D'ETUDES ET DE PARTICIPATIONS INDUSTRIELLES 4 Jan 1973 [6 Jan 1972] 567/73 Heading C7N Wire is continuously patented by subjecting it to surface cooling by immersion in a co-current stream of cooled molten lead, the wire being then submerged in a lead bath receiving that stream so that temperature equalisation occurs by transmission of heat from the core before any structural transformation takes place. Transformation then takes place within the bath at uniform temperature. Suitable apparatus includes a tank 1, surrounded at its head end by cooling chambers 2, 3 through which air is blown; the tank is subdivided by partition 70 over which lead overflows from zone 8 to zone 9 as it is recirculated by pump 15 from the wire discharge end of the tank through conduit 14 to the head end, where it is caused by deflector 17 to follow a circulatory path 'f' adjacent to the cooling jacket. Parallel wires 23 enter the tank over guide 19 at a temperature T 3 , e.g. 950C and then pass into the overflowing stream of lead where the surface temperature is reduced to T 1 . Temperature equalisation to T 2  then occurs before guide roll 26 is reached, and transformation occurs at that constant temperature between guides 26, 27 in the time interval S 1 -S 2 .
