Patent GB-191228336-A (GB)
Title: Overspeed and Overwind Prevention Gear for Colliery Winding Engines and the like.
Inventor: YATES ROBERT
IPC: B66B5/08
Filed: 1912-12-09
Granted: 1913-08-21
Abstract: 28,336. Yates, R., and Miller, J. D. Dec. 9. Stop-gear.-In mechanism for preventing overwinding and overspeeding of winding- engines &c., a sliding-bolt is actuated by a linkage operatively connected to a governor and to the depth indicator, such bolt being adapted to release pivoted members connected to devices for shutting-off steam, applying the brakes, and centring the reversing-lever. A rotary disk, shown in Fig. 3, driven from the winding- engine at the rate of one revolution per wind has a series of radial slots r<3> and a pair of circumferential slots s<1> in which stops are adjustablv mounted. These stops act in conjunction with a pin r<1> adjusted vertically by a governor e, and, when the pin is moved laterally in either direction by engagement with one of the stops, it operates a trip-gear through a linkage k, i, l. The trip-gear comprises a sliding-bolt held centrally in a box by spring-controlled arms p and having three shoulders engaging corresponding projections on three pivoted arms n, which are connected by cords n<3> to weighted levers controlling the brake, throttle, and reversing-levers. When the bolt is raised or depressed by the linkage k, i, l the arms n and cords n<3> are released. The cord n<3> for controlling the brake is attached to a hammer lever n<4>, which in falling releases a pawl from engagement with a ratchet-wheel w<2> and allows this wheel and its shaft to be rotated by a weight w. The motion is transmitted to the brake lever v<4> by a sprocket chain v<5> tensioned by a weight w<1>. The mechanism is reset by pulling a hand cord v<8>. The cord n<3> for operating the throttle valve is attached to a hammer lever x, which in falling on a lever x<3> raises a pawl x<2>, shown in plan in Fig. 10, and allows a weighted rope x<9> to rotate the quadrant arm x<4>. This arm has segmental stops y which close the throttle by engaging a cross-pin x<5> on the valve spindle, while allowing freedom for the normal operation of the valve. The third cord n<3> is attached to a hammer lever t which in falling releases a catch t' and allows weighted arms t<3>, geared together by spurwheels, to fall. Swivel blocks pivoted on these arms slide on rods u<1> attached to arms u<3> on the reversing-shaft u<30> and by engaging nuts u on the lower end of the rods u<1> swing the shaft into the central position.

Abstract: 1510. Leymarie, A. E. Jan. 23, 1912, [Convention date]. Composite spring; dash - pots; connexions, attachments, and adjustments applicable generally for tensile and compressive springs. - Relates to shock-absorbing devices of the kind inserted between the end of the usual laminated spring and the spring or dumb-iron on the vehicle frame, and consists in providing a twoarmed lever pivoted to the frame spring or dumb-iron shackles connecting one arm of the lever to the end which is operated upon by a piston connected with the other arm of the lever, the spring being compressed against a member carried by the axle. Fig. 1 shows a bell-crank lever in the form of two annular disks 4 having eyes 10, 9, and an arm 4<a> joining the disks. The pivot 10 of the bell-crank is carried by the frame spring or dumb-iron 2, and the eyes 9 are connected bv links 3 with the end of the axle spring 1, while the arm 4<a> is connected by means of an adjustable ball joint 5 to the rod 11 of a piston 13 working against the action of a helical spring 7 pivotally connected to the axle cylinder 12. The cylinder is perforated so as to act as an air dash-pot damping the movements of the piston. The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a) describes also (1) an arrangement in which the spring 7 operates in tension between the arm 4<a> and the axle, and (2) an arrangement in which the spring 7 extends horizontally outwards on the other side of the arm 4<a> and is connected to a bracket on the frame. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Abstract: 10,706. Boidot, C. May 6. Composite and helical springs; connexions, attachments, and adjustments applicable generally for tensile and compressive springs.- Relates to vehicle shock-absorbers, in which are employed three springs, one to take the weight of the vehicle, the second to absorb road-shocks, and the third to absorb the rebound of the first two springs after a shock. The invention consists in the particular construction and arrangement of parts described. In the form shown in section in Fig. 1, the vehicle frame spring a is pivotally connected at its end to a casing c in which slides a flanged plate f connected by sliding rods i to a cross-piece m. pivotally mounted on the end of the vehicle suspension spring. A compression spring e is disposed between the plate f and the top of the casing c, and a second spring r, fully compressed, is disposed between the plate f and a plate q at the bottom of the casing. The spring e bears the weight of the vehicle, while the spring r serves to cushion the rebound after a shock. A compression spring p is also inserted between the flange h of the plate f and the lid of the casing. This spring is not stressed under normal loads, but only when shocks occur. The bottom of the casing c may be detached by removing the screw-bolt y, and the resiliency of the springs may be adjusted by means of nuts l, t. In a modification, the plate f is inverted, and the spring p rests inside the spring e.
