Such a machine, for applying cement to the channel flap 26 and the channel <PICT:0464865/III/2> <PICT:0464865/III/3> <PICT:0464865/III/4> bed 28 of a shoe sole 24, comprises a cement receptacle 14, a gear pump 16, and a tube 18 through which cement is forced to the V-shaped nozzle 20, from which it is extruded directly on to the work as the latter is moved progressively past the nozzle. Between the side plates 30, 32 of the frame 10, is mounted a block 36 supporting a lengthwise adjustable rod 40 provided with an adjustable nozzle carrier 42.  The nozzle stem 51 has a flange 48 bolted to spaced flanges 50 on the carrier 42.  The work is fed by means of a rubber-tyred roll 60, carried by an arm 62, pivoted at 64 and driven from the main drive shaft 74 through gears 76 and shafts 78, 80, 72, so that the feed roll may be lifted slightly by the work without interfering with the drive.  The channel flap 26 is pressed against the side of the nozzle 20 by means of an oscillated finger 82, connected through the rod 88 and toggle links 92, 94 with a drive lever 90 which is oscillated by the serpentine-path cam 116.  A treadle rod 130 controls the cement valve 54 through the shaft 146, and also the vibrations of the flap-pressing finger 82 by breaking or straightening the toggle 92, 94.  The rod 130 controls also the feed roll 60, through the members 164, 174 and 62.  A V-shaped applying nozzle is shown in Fig. 7, comprising a cover plate 180 at its trailing end, and cement is extruded from the opening 186 and from both sides of the slot 194. The modified nozzle shown in Fig. 6, has an intermediate shouldered plate 230, providing two cement-applying slots.  In the modified form of machine shown in Fig. 12, the nozzle 340 is carried by links 370, 372 and is oscillated by a driven eccentric 390, while the work is fed by a rounded resilient roll 400, the flap 348 being held against one side of the nozzle by a cylindrical work-engaging member 405. Specification 411,815 is referred to.

Abstract: 1,198,258. Data collection systems; queuing arrangements. INTERNATIONAL COMPUTERS Ltd. 30 May, 1968 [8 June, 1967], No. 26554/67. Heading G4A. A data collection system for receiving data in bit form from a plurality of sources, assembling the data into characters having predetermined numbers of bits and feeding the assembled characters to an output register in the order in which they are assembled includes a store having a plurality of sections equal in number to the number of data sources with each section having a first location in which bits received from a respective data source are stored during assembly of a character and a second location, and queuing control means operable to form a queue of completely assembled characters if the output register is full, the queuing control means being arranged to transfer a newly completed assembled character into the queue into the second location of that store section in which the immediately preceding completely assembled character was stored during its assembly. Each time a new character is assembled and the output register is full or a queue formed it is stored together with the address of the storage section in which it was assembled in the second location of the storage section in which the immediately preceding new character was stored during assembly. The address so stored is also stored in a queue register and is utilized to determine the storage section to receive the next new character in the queue. When a character is removed from the output register (which may comprise a processor interface register) the address accompanying the character is used to access the next character from the queue. Sequential scanning of the data sources and other operations are controlled by a counter. Queue formed and output register full indicators are provided. If a character is assembled before the preceding character from the same source has been removed from the queue, the character is rejected and the source instructed to retransmit same. A detailed embodiment is disclosed.

Title: Speed governor mechanisms, applicable to gas turbine engines
IPC: G05D13/10
Filed: 1961-07-26
Abstract: 923,937. Speed governors; gas turbine plant. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. July 26, 1961 [July 27, 1960], No. 27062/61. Classes 57 and 110 (3). A speed governor mechanism comprises two concentric independently rotatable shafts, a centrifugal governor on each shaft, a speed control member movable against spring resistance, independent connections whereby either governor can move the speed control member, and a clearance providing for lost motion in one of the connections. In the gas turbine engine shown, comprising high pressure and low pressure turbines driving high pressure and low pressure compressors respectively through concentric independently rotating shafts, the high pressure shaft 32 and the low pressure shaft 34 are connected to the concentric shafts 60, 58, respectively of a speed governor through bevel gearing and concentric shafts 48, 46, respectively. The engine speed is set by means of a manually-operable lever (not shown) which adjusts the loading of a spring 136 through a lost-motion connection. If the speed of the high-pressure shaft exceeds the selected speed, centrifugal governor masses 102 carried by the shaft 60 act through a collar 116, plungers 118 and a plate 124 to move a spindle 126 axially against the resistance of the spring 136, thereby moving the control lever 134 of a fuel control unit 154 to reduce the supply of fuel to fuel nozzles 18. If the low pressure shaft overspeeds sufficiently relative to the high pressure shaft, centrifugal governor masses 100 carried by the shaft 58 move a plate 146 against the resistance of a spring 142 to a sufficient extent to bring the plate 146 into engagement with a flange 140 on the spindle 126, whereby the spindle 126 is thereafter moved axially to reduce the fuel supply. The loading of spring 142 is adjustable by means of screw 144A. Accessories, such as an oil pump 164, are driven from shaft 60 through gearing 160.

Title: A control system operating with optimum conditions for an automatic regulation of position
IPC: G05D3/14
Filed: 1959-08-10
Abstract: 924,473. Electric correspondence control systems. ZAVODY V.I. LENINA PLZEN NARODNI PODNIK. Aug. 10, 1959 [Aug. 9, 1958], No. 27202/59. Class 40 (1). In a closed loop servo system optimum response is obtained when the absolute value of the signal to the power part is constant and produces maximum power response, but for small deviations the input signals are proportional to the deviation. This is obtained by the use of non- linear elements in the feedback loop. As shown (Fig. 1) for maintaining two shafts 31, 32 in positional agreement, the shafts are electrically coupled by fine and coarse selsyn units 1, 2 respectively having a two to one gear ratio. The output from the fine selsyn unit 1 is fed via a limiter 14 and phase discriminator 15 to supply a constant voltage, whose sign depends on the sense of the positional error, to a coincidence circuit 19. The output from the coarse selsyn unit 2 is similarly fed through a reversing relay 22, and a phase discriminator 16 to coincidence circuit 19, which thus produces an output voltage only when its two inputs are of the same sign. This voltage is fed through a relay 21 and switch 22 to reverse the sign of the signal from selsyn 2 fed to phase discriminators 16, 23 each time the relay 21 is pulsed. The output from circuit 23 is fed through a non-linear member 24, together with the velocity difference signal obtained from tachogenerators 3, to a differencing member 25, so that their algebraic difference is fed to a coincidence circuit 28 together with the constant output voltage from discriminator 15, to produce an output when these voltages have the same sign, which is fed to relay 30 to add the constant output signal from tachogenerator 4 at member 11 with the signal from selsyn 2. The output from tachogenerators 4 is made constant over a wide range by feeding the field windings through a non- linear amplifier C from the output of selsyn 2. Thus amplifier 10 feeds amplidyne 9 with a signal which is proportional to the positional and speed difference between the shafts 31, 32 for small differences, and is otherwise of a constant magnitude having a polarity determined by a combination of the signs of the outputs from selsyns 1 and 2.

Filed: 1920-09-24
Abstract: 151,626. Zeiss, C., [Firm of]. Aug. 21, 1919, [Convention date]. Void [Published under Sect. 91 of the Act]. Pendulum-weight apparatus; spring balances. -Relates to a weighing-balance wherein the goods pan is at the top and is supported from the peripheries of two rotary drums by means of at least three bands which do not lie in one plane. The invention consists in coupling the two drums together, for instance by a flexible band. The dimensions of the bands used are chosen so that when the balance is depressed the work done in bending certain bands round the drums is equal to the work freed by the other bands in unwinding. Tn the construction shown in Fig. 3, the pan i is supported at one side on two bands j<2> and is supported at the other side on a single band j<3>. The bands pass round drums k, Z, which are each suspended at the ends by bands m and are coupled together by a flexible band j<4>. A suspended weight o<2> co-operating with a curved arm n<2> on the roller k balances the load placed on the pan. A wire r<2> loosely suspended from the axis of the drum l operates an indicating pointer q<2>. In another construction, the drums are mounted on knife-edges and are spaced apart, a rack being carried by the band j<4> for operating an indicating pointer. In the construction shown in Fig. 5, the goods pan is supported on a spring X and is steadied laterally by drums U<1>, D<2>. The drums are controlled by steel wires t<1>, v<2>, looped round the drums and connected respectively to rods t<2> and to guiding standards V'. Crossed wires V<1> pass round the two drums.
