Title: Improved method of and apparatus for applying closure caps to jars, bottles and likereceptacles
IPC: B67B3/18
Filed: 1934-10-31
Abstract: 444,219. Applying closure caps to jars, bottles, &c. AKTIEBOLAGET G. AREHNS MEKANISTCA VERKSTAD, 20, Alstromergatan, Stockhohn. Oct. 31, 1934, No. 386/35. Convention date, Nov. 24, 1933. [A Specification was laid open to inspection under Sect. 91 of the Acts, May 6, 1935.] [Class 125 (ii)] In apparatus for applying a closure cap 30 having a depending skirt to the mouth of a jar, bottle or like receptacle 29, Figs. 1 and 2, the capping tools 20, 21 are mounted in substantially different levels and adapted to press different longitudinal sections of the skirt yieldingly against the receptacle, the tool or disc 21 being mounted for progressive movement longitudinally of the receptacle 29 at a range of action beyond that of the tool 20 to press the material of the skirt into intimate contact with the receptacle, e.g. into a screwed groove while the disc 20 presses the material into a groove or below an annular rim 31. Each disc 20 is mounted in a lever 61 while each disc 21 is carried by a link 23 pivoted to a lever 22, the levers 22, 61 being weighted at 26 and provided with anti-friction rollers 27 which roll on the substantially conical surface 64 of an annular trackway 28. The levers 22, 61 are carried by four radial brackets 59 integral with a sleeve 6 which is keyed to a sleeve 57 and rotated through gear wheels 4, 5. In operation, a cap 30 is placed on the threaded neck of the bottle 29 and is then pressed upwardly against a plunger 17 which lifts the sleeve 6 so that the rollers 27 move outwards on the track 28 and the discs 20, 21 are brought into engagement with the skirt of the cap, the discs 20, being nearer the axis, operating first to force the material into the groove 31 and discs 21 then spinning the material into the threaded groove. The discs 20 therefore hold the skirt downwardly against the action of the discs 21 in traversing along the bottle neck. On removing the bottle, the apparatus is returned to its original position by the spring 12. In a modification, the discs 20 are mounted on arms 33, Figs. 3 and 7, secured to rock shafts 34 carried in brackets 35 while the discs 21 are mounted on arms 46 pivoted to forks 47 on the shafts 34, the movements of the discs 20, 21 being governed by rollers 38 engaging an annular track 40 and the discs 21 moving down the bottle neck to form the screw-thread. In a further modification, the discs 21 are resiliently mounted on vertical spindles carried by the forked ends of arms keyed to the shafts 34, while in another arrangement the arms 22, 61 carrying the discs 21, 20 are urged inwardly by springs, the discs 21 being mounted on shafts axially movable in the forked ends of the arms 22 and the discs 20 being resiliently mounted on fixed shafts. For irregularly shaped bottle necks the spinning tool 21 may be formed as a ring loosely mounted on a spindle while the spindle supporting the disc 21 may also be mounted obliquely to conform with the pitch of the thread on the bottle neck.

Abstract: 673,721. Making heat-exchangers. DALIN, D. Jan. 6, 1950, No. 426/50. Classes 83 (ii) and 83 (iv). Welding by pressure; forging.--A method of making a composite article, such as extended surface heat-exchangers, having a metal base wall and a plurality of closely spaced rod-like elements of metal having a high thermal conductivity comprises gripping an element in a chuck, cooling the chuck, pressing the element against the base wall, passing an electric current between the base and the element so that the contacting portions are brought to welding temperature and maintaining the current flow and the pressure until the end of the element is spread out over and welded to the base wall. A rod-like element 6, preferably round, is gripped in a chuck 12 at a specified distance from one end and pressed against a base wall 5 supported in a saddle 13. The chuck 12 and saddle 13 are connected to a source of electric current 14 and as the element and the base are pressed together the contacting portions are brought to welding temperature which is maintained until the portions are welded together the end of the element being spread out and formed into a foot 8 by the bottom of the chuck 12. The chuck is cooled by circulating a coolant through a jacket 17. For optimum heat exchange conditions the area of the foot 8 at its junction with the base wall, should not be less than one and three-fourths times the crosssectional area of the element 6. The elements may be fixed to both sides of the base wall as in Fig. 3. Specification 661,909, [Group XIII], is referred to.

Abstract: 1487971 Bearings for metallurgical converters VEREINIGTE OSTERREICHISCHE EISEN - UND STAHLWERKE - ALPINE MONTAN AG 6 Jan 1975 [10 Jan 1974] 434/75 Heading F4B [Also in Division F2] In a combined gearing and bearing assembly 8 for a tillable-converter trunnion 7 comprising a housing 14 common to a spur gear-wheel 12 secured to the trunnion 7 to effect rotation thereof and to a drive 20 for the spur gearwheel, spherical bearing means between the spur gear-wheel and the housing 14 are provided to accommodate angular and wobbling movements of the trunnion. The housing 14 is secured directly to a base or support member (9 Fig. 1). As shown bearings 15 and 16, each consisting of inner and outer races having part-spherical coacting faces 17, permit angular movement of the trunnion 7 relative to the housing 14 about a centre point M. As shown the spur gear-wheel is a two-part construction comprising a spherical.hub 10 shrunk fitted on to the trunnion 7 and surrounded by an annular toothed wheel 12; torque is transmitted from wheel to hub by internal straight teeth 13 on the wheel intermeshing with arcuate teeth 11 on the hub. Alternatively crowned rollers inserted into corresponding semicircular recesses in both the hub 10 and the wheel 12 may be used instead of intermeshing teeth. The external surface of the wheel has two sets of teeth, with the teeth of one set being inclined at equal and opposite angles to the teeth in the other set, there being a recess 18 between the sets. Three eccentric rollers 19 spaced around the periphery of the housing 14 and received in the recess 18 serve to locate and support the toothed wheel 12 within the housing. Drive is applied to the wheel 12 by means of gears 21 and drive pinions 20. In an alternative embodiment (Fig. 6, not shown) a further bearing arrangement (23, 24) is provided between the housing (14) and the toothed wheel (12), with the rollers (19) being omitted. In a further embodiment (Fig. 7, not shown) a one piece gear-wheel having arcuate external teeth (26) is placed directly on the trunnion.
