Granted: 1897-12-04
Abstract: 1674. Barnes, J., Kenyon, R. W., Kenyon, W. H., and Shorrock, J. L. Jan. 21. Mangling and wringing machines.-Machines, especially those with three superposed rollers, are fitted with means for reversing the direction of rotation of the rollers without altering that of the flywheel and handle. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the flywheel F drives the double wheel 5, 6, which is keyed upon the shaft of one of the rollers, either through the train of wheels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or through the train 1, 2, 3, 6. To permit of the change, the pinion 1 is a long one, so that the wheel 2 may be slid along it by the lever G for bringing the pinion 3, which is fixed to 2, into gear with the wheel 4 or 6. In another form, the wheel 5 forms a double wheel with 4, and 6 is a single wheel. In another form, this wheel 6 is movable upon a feather on the roller shaft instead of the wheels 2, 3 being movable. In another form, the flywheel and pinion 1 slide upon the roller shaft for shifting the wheel 1 from the direct to the indirect train of gearing. A form is also described in which a large wheel on the roller shaft gears with one of two pinions which gear together, and the driving-handle may be put upon the shaft of either of these pinions. In the form shown in Figs. 11 and 12, the roller shaft carries a disc L upon which is pivoted a lever l carrying a train of pinions 2, 3, 4, and an internally-toothed wheel or rack 5 is fixed upon the frame. When the pinion 4 runs on the rack 5, the pinion 2 gears with the flywheel pinion 1. When 2 gears with the rack, 3 gears with 1. In a modification, the disc L is fixed and the wheel 5 rotates.

Abstract: 13,211. Coughlin, E. W. Nov. 18, A.D. 1897, [date claimed under Sec. 103 of Patents &c Act, A.D. 1883]. Points and switches.-In a switch-box for operating a set of points and also a frog for crossing an unbroken main rail, the working parts are so arranged that the points and frogs are not moved simultaneously, but one after the other. Two sliding plates 4 and 5, connected to the frog and points respectively, are formed with vertical extensions 8 having oppositely-curved cam slots 12, 12<a> which are engaged by rollers on cranks 20 at about a right-angle to one another. The cranks are operated by a weighted lever 14. On lifting the latter to a vertical position the plate 5 only is moved, but with a further movement of the lever the plate 5 is left stationary and the plate 4 only is operated. If the pointsman through negligence leaves the frog lying across the main rail after moving the points, the contact of a car wheel on the main line with the frog is sufficient to bring the switch-box into action so as to move the frog.
