Title: Improvements in self-exciting synchronous dynamos and motors
IPC: H02K57/00
Filed: 1925-10-07
Abstract: 245,068. Matabon, J. L., and Foucault, C. M. Dec. 26, 1924, [Convention date]. Alternating-current commutator and induction machines.-A self-exciting synchronous machine which will act as a generator or as a synchronous motor with the property of running as a compensated asynchronous motor when loaded beyond its synchronous power limit consists of a stationary compensating winding i, Fig. 2, and two rotor windings, one of which, g, gives or receives polyphase current at slip-rings e as a normal primary winding, while the other, a commutator winding h, is connected to the stator winding through starting and exciting resistances v, y, Fig. 3. For motor running, the machine is started up as an asynchronous motor on the mains w by cutting out resistance at v, and when the rheostat arm is moved beyond the studs 2 continuous-current is supplied to the windings i from the commutator j to an amount which is limited by the rheostat y, and the machine runs synchronously. If the load exceed that which the machine can take as a synchronous motor, it automatically acts as a compensated asynchronous motor. When the machine is used alone as an alternating-current generator, shaft-driven at s, the rheostat arm v is set on the compensating studs and the residual magnetism causes the windings h to supply an exciting current to the windings i, the value of which is regulated by the rheostat y. If the machine is to run in parallel with other generators, it may be started from the line as an asynchronous motor by means of the rheostat v, the excitation being given as soon as the rheostat arm passes from the last starting studs 2 to the compensating studs. The main drive is then established and the rheostat y is adjusted to make the machine take its share of the load. The Specification describes connections between the windings h, i in 3-phase and 6-phase groupings. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) shows also circle diagrams illustrating the transition from synchronous to asynchronous compensated running. This subjectmatter does not appear in the Specification as i accepted.

Title: Improvements in combined airplane-helicopter flying machines

IPC: B64C29/00
Filed: 1954-08-30
Abstract: 757,279. Convertible aircraft. MINISTERIO DA AERONAUTICA. Aug. 30, 1954, No. 25147/54. Class 4. In an aircraft having supporting wings in which propellers are swung about axes transverse to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft to enable it to take off vertically as a helicopter and then fly as a normal aircraft the wings 2 each carry a boom 3 extended forward of the wings to provide a mounting for a propeller 5 arranged so that when the propeller is swung about a transverse axis 7 from the forwardflight position (dotted lines) to the vertical flight position (full lines) the downwardlydirected airflows from the propeller discs are clear of the leading edges of the wings. To counteract the upward pitching moment resulting from this arrangement the booms 3 carry pivotal supports for an elevator 4 and a further rotor 9 is mounted on the elevator in the central longitudinal plane of the aircraft to be swung in unison with the propellers 5. The unbalanced torque resulting from the use of three propellers or rotors is compensated by inclining to horizontal planes the axes about which the propellers 5 and the elevator 4 are swung. A further embodiment is described in which this unbalanced torque is avoided by the use of four propellers.

Abstract: 676,236. Tea manufacture. KERR, W. A. Sept. 28, 1950 [Sept. 30, 1949], No. 25184/49. Addition to 633,261. Class 129. In the artificial tea withering process described in the parent Specification the pressure in the closed vessel containing the bruised leaf is reduced from atmospheric to the desired degree of vacuum suddenly. The apparatus is the same as that described in the parent Specification apart from the introduction between the vacuum pump 19 and the closed vessel 3 of an intermediate receiver 22, which is connected to the pump 19 by a pipe 23 and to the closed vessel 3 by a pipe 9 provided with a cock 24. The volume of the internal space of the receiver is at least one third of that of the closed vessel. Opening of the cock 24, after the receiver 22 has been exhausted by the pump 19 to a vacuum somewhat greater than that required in the closed vessel 3, causes sudden exhaustion of the vessel with the result that withering of the bruised leaf therein is effected in from half to three-quarters of an hour.
