Granted: 1910-06-02
Abstract: 16,646. Dibben, G. July 16. Vehicles with removable bodies.-A collapsible van of variable capacity is constructed with vertically and horizontally divided side and end sections, a divided roof, and a boxlike base adapted to contain the parts of the van when collapsed. The boxlike base a may have a hinged portion a<1> at one or both sides. The sides of the van are made in removable sections, which may be tongued and grooved or otherwise interlocked together and are built up against channelirons c, of the section shown in Fig. 5, hinged to the floor or sides of the base a. Inverted U- shaped irons c' preferably of T-section are detachably secured to the roof and slide in the channel-irons c to form an end frame of variable height. Overlapping irons h are arranged around the sections, and at the ends they are bent round as shown at h<1> to embrace the end sections. The sections e above the parts a<1> are removed for unloading, and the parts f above the sections e are turned up ; doors g may also be provided in the sections e. Lifting-irons j are provided, each having two eyes j<2>, k<3> adapted to fit over projections k on a bar k<1>, the upper eye k<3> being used when the height of the van is reduced by removing upper panels n. The upper end of each iron j is retained in one or other of the two grooves in a fitting l on the roof by a pin l<1>. Channel-irons o are hinged to the base a at o<1> or o<2> according to the height of the van, and between the upper ends of these bars struts are inserted to take the crushing stress on the roof due to the lifting-irons. The base a may have sides and ends q, r, Fig. 5, connected by a metal strap s so as to form a socket t to take a projection on one of the side members of the van. The van may be constructed without the-removable panels n.

Patent GB-190919420-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to the Production or Manufacture of Metal Rods or Tubes from Billets.
Inventor: DICKS WILLIAM
IPC: B21B19/06
Filed: 1909-08-24
Granted: 1910-08-18
Abstract: 19,420. Dicks, W Aug. 24. Rolling tubes; skew-rolling.-In the rolling of tubes and rods, the rolls or disks are formed with grooves and ridges of varying depth which act in opposition to the feed given by another portion of the rolls or by external means. The process, which may be continuous or step-by-step, causes the work to have a screwed formation b, Fig. 6, which may be rolled out in a smoothing-portion of the rolls. When conical skew rolls A, A<1>, Figs. 1 and 3, are used, the edges a are bevelled off, and ridges and grooves a<1>, a<2>, a<3>, a<4> start at the edge and continue in spiral form to the flat smoothing-portions a<9>. Taking any point Y on one of the ridges, the tangent Z<1> Z<1> to the ridge is at a greater inclination to the work axis than the tangent Z Z to the circle with centre at the centre of the roll, so that the ridge always exerts a back-feeding action. The grooves may be concave or convex, or one roll may have concave grooves and the other convex. In the modification shown in Fig. 16, the grooves are arranged spirally on the skew rolls. For step-bystep rolling, a number of ridges A<2>, A<3>, A', Fig. 18, are arranged on the rolling-disks and terminate in finishing-portions A<14>, the work-piece moving backwards under the action of the rolling-surfaces against the spring feed.

Title: Improvements in Phonographs.
Inventor: ARNOLD OSCAR
Filed: 1909-09-27
Granted: 1910-03-24
Abstract: 21,969. Arnold, O. Sept. 27. [Addition to 13,823/08.] Feed - motions; stopping. - Relates to improvements on the parent Specification, and Specification 19,614/06, for phonograph mechanisms for dolls, and consists in substituting the feeding-device of the latter Specification for that in the former, and in making the device more compact. Fig. 2 is a side view, and Fig. 3 a plan of the mechanism. The sound-box d is carried by a two - armed lever pivoted at a<4> to a bent support a<3>, a, which is traversed by its attached feed-nut l on the feedscrew m. A latch e, slidably connected with the sound-box support a and normally pulled downwards by a spring, has a projection at the top adapted to hold the sound-box raised from the record when rewinding, or when the reproduction is finished. At the lower end of the latch is a projection e<3> adapted to slide along the arm f of a double-armed lever f, f<4> pivoted at f<1> to the base nf the machine. and to fall into a recess e<4> at the end of the arm f when the reproduction is finished and the feed-nut l has reached the right-hand end of the feed-screw m, and thus apply the end f<4> to a stop g on the governor and stop the mechanism. To start the device, the spring motor at the right-hand end of the feed-screw is wound by turning the left-hand end of the feed-screw; simultaneously the feednut l with the latch e and the sound-box d are retained to the left-hand end of the feed-screw, the projection e<3> slipping round the recess e' and constantly keeping the arm f<4> against the governor stop g. When a lever f<2> is depressed, its end f<3> raises the latch e by a projection l<2>, thus lowering the sound-box d on to the record, and at the same time lifting the projection e<3> above the lever f, thereby allowing a spring k to disengage the arm f<4> from the governor stop g and starting the spring motor.

Abstract: 9346. Schlumberger, R. April 18. Combing-machines. - In Heilmann combing- machines of the type in which the feed-trough, the feed-roller, and the top comb are moved towards the detaching-rollers in order to prolong the time of drawing, the feed-trough and the feed-roller are moved relatively to the nippers, which movement is utilized to effect the intermittent rotation of the feed-roller. The nippers 26, 29 are mounted on a lever 27, which is oscillated about its centre 21 by cams 33, 45 through levers 9, 10 and a connecting-rod 12. The sliding-carriage 34 carrying the feed-trough and the feed-roller 35 is mounted to slide on the lever 27, and is oscillated by the cam 38 through the bell-crank lever 8, 7 and connecting- rod 6. The shaft of the roller 35 carries a fixed ratchet-wheel 41 and a loose double-armed lever 42 with a pawl 44. The end of the lever 42 is linked to the nipper by a connecting-rod 43. When the feed-carriage continues to move forward after the nipper has ceased its motion, the pawl slips idly over the ratchet-wheel, but when the feed-carriage receives its backward motion relatively to the nipper, the pawl engages the ratchet-wheel and rotates the roller 35.
