Title: Improvements in Cotton Gins.
Inventor: DOREMUS WILLARD DELMONT
Filed: 1908-06-01
Granted: 1909-06-01
Abstract: 11,855. Doremus, W. D. June 1. Gins.-A series of saw cylinders, the saws of which project into the adjacent cylinders as shown, rotate in the same direction at progressively increasing speeds. The saws at the inlet end are preferably provided with larger teeth, and the cylinders are of gradually increasing length, each cylinder being overlapped at the end by the succeeding cylinder. The cotton is fed to the saws through a hopper 4 provided with an adjustable plate 5 and each saw separates cotton from the seed and moves the seed and excess of seed cotton to the succeeding cylinders. Each saw has an upper covering consisting of two adjustable parts 7, 8, the second of which has bristles of metal, hair, fibre, or similar material 11, which keep the cotton in contact with the cylinders. The coverings towards the discharge end of the machine have the portions 8 shortened so as to leave a space through which seeds, bolls, stones, dust, &c. are projected. These seeds &c. strike adjustable inclined flanges 12, Fig. 10, and are deflected out of the machine. The cotton is removed from the saws by the brushes 41 and passes to separate conduits '46, which may be connected by doors 48. The last saw cylinder is provided with a fixed comb 19, and the seeds bearing cotton fibre are delivered down a shoot 18 and returned to any desired part of the machine by a worm and a telescopic tube. Seeds free from cotton are thrown over an adjustable board 17. Heavy foreign bodies passing through the saw cylinders with the cotton are thrown over adjustable mote boards 53 into troughs 59. To facilitate lengthening and shortening, the machine is made in sections.

Title: Improvements relating to Gas Lighting and Extinguishing Apparatus.
Inventor: ELTON EDMUND HARRY
Filed: 1908-09-08
Granted: 1909-09-08
Abstract: 18,860. Elton, Sir E. H., and Stephens, R. Sept. 8. [Patent of Addition to No. 15,067, A.D. 1906.] Lighting and extinguishing gas.-In a modification of the lighting and extinguishing apparatus described in Specification No. 15,067, A.D. 1906, the valve-controlling mechanism is arranged externally to the expansible chamber in which one or more valves are mounted. A spindle 14, Fig. 1, on the diaphragm 2 or bell forming part of the expansible chamber is provided with a flange 14<d> or a projection for engaging a flange or flanges 51, 61 on the valves 5, 6, and is connected to the weighted control-lever 11, or is formed with a pointed or knife-shaped end engaging the lever. The spindle 14 may be of two parts screwed one into the other. The lever 11 is provided with a swinging arm 24, Fig. 3, which, by means of a stop 282 and a notched cam-piece 281, prevents the fall of the lever 11 beyond a certain extent when the first decrease of gas pressure takes place, the second temporary increase and decre se of pressure disengaging the arm 24 from the notch in the cam-piece 281 ' and allowing it to return to a position below the cam-piece. By arranging two or more notches in the cam, two or more valves may be closed in succession. The pilot-jet passage may be always open, or may be controlled by means of the main valves, valve spindles, or diaphragm spindle acting through the pilot-jet valve lever. In some cases flanges on the main valve contact with the pilot-jet valve lever. In order to give an additional flash for the pilot jets when igniting the main burners, the passages connecting the pilot jets to the main burners are each provided with a loosely fitting ball, valve, or the like which, when the burner valve opens, is driven along the passage and causes a momentary rush of gas towards the pilot jet orifice, the gas being cut off when the ball &c. reaches the end of its travel. The control lever 11, Fig. 6, may swing laterally between stops e in order to give any desired variation in working pressure, and the axis of the pivoted weight arm is inclined to the axis of the lever, so that the pressure at which the lever falls may be varied independently of the pressure at which the lever rises according to the distance through which the weight arm is permitted to swing towards the fulcrum. In another form, the diaphragm spindle 14, Fig. 8, is connected by a hanging link 11<b> to a laterallyswinging arm 11<a> on the weighted control lever 20, the movement of the arm 11<a> being adjusted by stops in order to enable the difference between the lighting and extinguishing pressure to be adjusted. The projecting ends of the valves are enclosed in screwed caps 52, 62, Fig. 1, and the operating-mechanism is enclosed by a detachable cap 7<A>. The control lever may be replaced by controlling- devices such as is described in Specification No. 2816, A.D. 1908.

Moulding processes ; patterns.-In a process for making sand moulds for grooved wheels, I-sections, or other patterns with inwardly projecting grooves or corners in a moulding-machine, a divided pattern is employed, and a sand core is formed by hand. One half-pattern a with its section surface upwards is pressed on a heaped-up chest 1 so that the rim is flushed, as shown in Fig. 1. A chest 2 is put on and rammed, an insert, equal to the height the pattern stands out of the chest 1, being put between the chests. The reversed chest 2 with the half-pattern therein is levelled at the sides leaving a sand collar as wide as the templet c, Fig. 5, round the pattern, and a chest is rammed thereon. The chest is used to make a plaster pattern plate, over which the bottom box 6 of the mould proper is rammed. A pattern plate 5, Fig. 5, is made over the chest 2 with the halfpattern a and templet c thereon. The templet 5 with bolts d therein, and both pattern halves a, b, are placed on the pattern plate 5, Fig. 7, and moulding-sand is rammed by hand into the groove of the pattern to form the core e.
