Title: Improvements in and relating to Non-conducting Coverings for Steam and other Pipes.
Inventor: COLEMAN ALBERT BERTRAM
IPC: F16L59/04
Filed: 1909-08-21
Granted: 1910-05-05
Abstract: 19,281. Coleman, A. B., and Hasluck, W. Aug. 21. ' Non - conducting coverings for heat. -A cylindrical casing a is built up on supporting-disks b, and has an aperture c on the periphery of practically the same dimensions as the pipe &c. to be admitted. The space between the pipe and the casing is packed with non-conducting material, and the space is closed by a plate f. The corresponding apertures in the disks b are closed by plates g of suitable shape, with fastening-devices having a wedging action, for example, drawn up by bolts, as shown in Fig. 4, or pivoted as shown at s, Fig. 10. In other forms, a sliding plate is employed, for example, as shown in connexion with larger casings to protect the flange joints in Fig. 17. The outer plate may be fastened by bolts or sprung into place. To reduce conduction the pipe is supported only on wires v, m where it passes the disks b.

Title: Method of and Apparatus for Making Lids of Cardboard and the like.
Inventor: LESKE GUSTAV
IPC: B31B50/59
Filed: 1909-11-24
Granted: 1910-07-07
Abstract: 27,361. Leske, G. Nov. 24. Cupping and the like.-To obtain cardboard box lids of high rigidity and with smooth rims, the lids are formed by stamping in a mould and then shortening the formed lid in the closed mould by pressure from a counter die which presses the edge of the rim against a support as the plunger is being withdrawn, and so forms a flange on the lid. Two matrices are employed. The blank is cut out from a strip g by a cutter x and is forced by a stamp a through a matrix b to form a lid in the usual manner. The lid is then forced through the tapered faces f of four spring-pressed slides c, and into a second matrix h fitted with a counter-stamp l, which is formed with an annular groove m adapted to form a flange on the lid. The stamps a, l and the matrix h are now moved to the right until recesses k on the matrix h meet conical faces e on the members c, and then the stamps move alone and cause the front edge of the lid to be arrested against the faces e as shown in Fig. 4, and the movement is continued until the edge of the lid is shortened as shown in Fig. 5, and a flange o is formed on the lid. The stamp a then moves to the right, the matrix h and stamp l move to the left, and the finished lid drops. The stamps a, l and matrix h are reciprocated by eccentric or lever mechanism from a main driving-shaft.

Title: Improvements in Speed Governing Devices for Electrically Driven Shafts.
Inventor: OLMSTED ALEXANDER HOLLEY
IPC: H01H35/10
Filed: 1909-12-24
Granted: 1910-08-11
Abstract: 30,187. Olmsted, A. H. Jan. 9, [Convention date]. Differential governors; transmitting-mechanism. - A differential governor for electricallydriven shafts comprises two disks B, M driven from the shaft A, connected to the motor to be governed, and from a centrifugally-controlled shaft I respectively. A friction clutch is placed between the disk M and a gear-wheel L the latter gearing with a wheel on the shaft I, which is driven from the shaft A through the toothed disk B, pinion C, friction clutch E, and centrifugal governor G, the governor maintaining the speed of the shaft I practically constant. Two slip-rings W on the shaft A are connected (1) by brushes to a resistance Y in the field of the motor and (2) to an arm P on the disk B and a stop N on the disk M; when the arm P and stop N are in contact, the resistance is short-circuited. At normal speed the governor clutch E slips, so that continuous regulation takes place; on increase of speed the resistance is short-circuited for a considerable time. A second stop R limits the relative forward movement of the disk M with respect to the disk B. In a modification, the two disks may carry a number of contacts, over which two stationary brushes wipe ; a relative displacement determines the length of time during which the resistance is short-circuited.
