Title: Liquid fuel burner
IPC: F23D11/06
Filed: 1975-04-23
Abstract: 1486128 Burners DOWA CO Ltd 23 April 1975 [24 April 1974 (2) 15 Oct 1974] 16890/75 Heading F4T A burner for burning liquid fuel as a mixture of gasified fuel and water vapour comprises a cylindrical main body 1, Fig. 1, a rotary shaft 5, having fixed thereon a cup-shaped fuel gasifying member 6, means 30 for supplying liquid fuel to the interior of member 6, an air blast supply duct 11, an annular gas-air mixing plate 9 secured for rotation with member 6 and defining a gas passage 18 and a liquid fuel scattering gap 8, means 28 for supplying water to the inner surface of member 6, an annular water-evaporation chamber 20 disposed along the inner periphery of the closed end of member 6, having at least one water inlet port 22, and being filled with material 26 for promoting evaporation of water, and having a multitude of steam ejection aperture 25, and ignition means. In operation, shaft 5, member 6 and member 28, are rotated, whilst liquid fuel is supplied through line 30, and an air blast is supplied through ducts 11, 12. The fuel is diffused, and moves over the inner surface of member 6 and is scattered in atomized particles through gap 8, where it is ignited by means 33. Part of the air passes through chamber 15 and is injected through openings 17, 18, so as to form a curtain which prevents the flame heating wall 2. Member 6 is thus heated, so that the fuel passing through line 30, is vaporized, and gasified, and passes into gas chamber 4. This fuel-air mixture is ejected through ports 3a and is ignited by means 34 to burn as a blue flame. Water is supplied through line 29 to member 28 and then scattered evenly through passages 32 on to the inner wall of member 6, and then moves along the latter into chamber 19 through inlets 22, where it is converted to water vapour. The water vapour is ejected through steam outlets 25 into member 6 where it forms a mixture with the gasified fuel which has been produced by vaporization and gasification of the liquid fuel. The fuel-air vapour is ejected from chamber 4 through ports 3a, to sustain combustion of the gasified fuel. In a modification, gas chamber 4, Fig. 5 (not shown), is not disposed along the entire inner periphery of body 1. In a further modification, air injection chamber 15 is omitted, Fig. 6 (not shown). In yet a further modification, steam outlets (39) Figs. 7 and 8 (not shown), are provided in the outer wall of chamber 19. In another modification, member 6 is formed with a skirt (40) Figs. 9-11 (not shown), having ejection slits (41) therein.
Patent GB-844517-A (GB)
Title: Power-operated turret for boring mills and like machines
IPC: B23B29/32
Filed: 1958-05-27
Abstract: 844,517. Boring-mills; turrets. GIDDINGS & LEWIS MACHINE TOOL CO. May 27, 1958 [June 14, 1957], No. 16915/58. Class 83 (3). A power-operated tool turret for boring-mills and like machines comprises drive-mechanism for rotating the turret in either direction to a desired index-position, and automatic means for unlocking and locking the turret before and after the required rotation. The tool-turret 15, Fig. 3, is carried on a vertically-adjustable ram 11. The drive for clamping and indexing is provided by a reversible electric motor 60 carried by the ram above the turret, and is transmitted by a chain 62 and sprockets at the back of the ram to a toothed wheel 65 which engages another toothed wheel 66 secured to a hollow shaft 70. The latter passes up through the stationary support-member 20 for the turret, and has a gear 71, Fig. 5, on its upper end which drives the various gears arranged in a stationary housing 25 extending beyond the turret proper. The gears comprise two similar drives 73, 75, both driven from wheel 71 and including electric clutches and differential reduction gears. The drive 73 rotates a crankpin 47 with a roller 48, moving in a recess 49 of a rotatable disc 41, which effects turret-clamping and unclamping through toggle levers 44. The drive 75 finally rotates a pinion 51 engaging a ring-gear 53 fixed to the inside of the top of the turret. An electric-brake 95 is secured to the front end of the turret drive 75 to halt the turret in the predetermined index positions (five in the example described). A flexible coupling 129, 89, is embodied in the turret drive, so that dogs on the locking rings 31, 32, Fig. 3, on the turret and the ram respectively, may slide into engagement. Operation.-Automatic operation of the turret is through control-circuits, the ram 11 first being raised to close a switch LS8 before indexing can take place. A selector switch is then set to the index position required and then a two-directional switch is moved to set the reversible motor, moving the turret in the shortest circular path to reach the desired index position. The motor is thus started in the selected direction, and the drive 73 operates to unclamp the turret while the brake 95 holds the other drive 75 stationary. A switch LS7, Fig. 4, is operated when the turret is raised from its seating and is free to rotate, which releases brake 95, deenergizes clutch 73 and engages clutch 75 to start turret rotation. On reaching the selected index position, an arm geared to rotate with the turret closes one of a number of switches (one for each index position), and turret-rotation stops and reclamping takes place, the controlcircuit being finally inactivated when the ram is moved down to operate switch LS8. The turret may be indexed and clamped at intermediate positions by the insertion of hand keys into sockets 93a, 93b, Fig. 5, provided in the ends of the clutch-shafts 76, 77, respectively.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the manufacture of regenerated cellulose rayon yarn
IPC: D01G1/08
Filed: 1949-06-30
Abstract: Regenerated cellulose continuous filaments are stretched beyond their yield point whilst in a normally dry state, their moisture content is then increased and finally a portion of said moisture is removed, as by drying.  Filaments in the normally dry state are defined as filaments possessing an equilibrium moisture content under normal atmospheric conditions, i.e. having a moisture content of less than about 15 per cent by weight.  The stretched filaments may be formed into a package prior to wetting. Preferably, the filaments are stretched beyond their breaking point to produce staple fibre, which is wetted, dried and may be subsequently spun into yarn.  The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 comprises also a modification of the process in which the filaments, having been drafted and broken into staple fibre, are spun into a yarn which is then wetted and dried.  In an example, an untwisted bundle of viscose filament rayon of 2200 denier, dry strength 2.9 g./denier and 6 per cent stretch is drawn into 9-inch staple fibre between two sets of rollers.  The sliver so formed is immediately wound and twisted on a bobbin by a ring spinner into a yarn having a cotton count of 30/1, a strength of 2.5 g./denier and an elongation of 5.6 per cent.  The bobbin is immersed in water at room temperature for an hour and then dried in an oven.  The final yarn has a count of 30/3, strength 2.65 g./denier and an elongation of approximately 10.6 per cent.  This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in and relating to apparatus for feeding sheets of paper, cardboard andthe like from a pile
IPC: B65H3/22
Filed: 1921-06-27
Abstract: 181,983. Molins, W. E. June 27, 1921. Sheet separators and carriers; pile supports.- Apparatus for feeding thick sheets of paper, cardboard, &c. from the bottom of a pile, comprises a reciprocating feed table 10 fitted with a pivoted member 13 provided with pins d which are forced into the bottom sheet and carry the same into the grip of feed rollers 3, 4, which forward the separated sheets preferably to other feeding- means as described in Specification 169,341. The pins d are arranged in pairs in holders formed of a central portion 13, Fig. 3, with grooves 13<a> to receive the pins which are held in place by clamps 14 and screws 14<a>. One pin of each pair has its point ground away so as to act as a stop and prevent the other pin from penetrating beyond the thickness of a blank. The pin carrier 13 is pivoted to a slide 11 which is normally carried with the table 10 by means of a spring-pressed plunger 12 which engages a sloping surface 12<a> on the slide. If however, the sheet sticks, the plunger yields and allows the table 10 to reciprocate without the slide. and so prevents damage. The table 10 is formed with recesses in which engage rollers 10<a> which prevent side play of the table. The table is prevented from rising vertically by a roller 9<a> which engages a track 20 controlled by a spring 22. The table 10 is reciprocated by an eccentric rod 6 pivoted to a depending part 9, and formed with an extension provided with a roller 7 which, as the slide returns acts on a tail piece 15 of the pin carrier 13, and causes the carrier to move out of sheet-engaging position. A spring 17 brings the pins back into the position shown to engage the bottom sheet of the pile. A portion of the roller 3 is cut away so that the rollers do not grip the sheet until it is released from the pins.
