Granted: 1913-04-22
Abstract: 9443. Buckton, A. R. April 22. Steam cooking - apparatus. - Cooking - apparatus of the kind in which an upper foodholding pan having an imperforate bottom is fitted on to a lower water-holding vessel, is arranged to cook under pressure by forming the upper vessel with a single or double bottom rim which forms a steam-tight joint with the lower vessel and fixes the upper vessel in position so that its bottom is approximately level with the top of the lower vessel. Fig. 7 shows one form of cooking-vessel in which the upper vessel is formed with a single bottom rim a, and also with a gallery A<4> which receives steam through perforations A<3>. The lid is fitted with a rotary hit-and-miss ventilator D. In a modified construction, an upper vessel without a gallery is fitted with a double rim forming a recess which fits over the top edge of the lower vessel.

Abstract: 11,904. Marks, E. C. R., [International Concentrator Co.]. May 20. Pneumatic separating.-In a dry ore concentrator in which air under pressure is used to separate the components according to their specific gravities, the ore is fed through a hopper 21 on to an imperforate reciprocating table 3, the air being drawn over the ore by a fan 1 and passing up through a perforated plate into a chamber 11, the lighter particles being deposited in a chamber 2. The clean concentrates are discharged at the outer end 10 of the table. The ore bed or table 3 is provided with longitudinal ridges 8, as shown in crosssection in Fig. 4. The size of the air-slots 19 is regulated by a screw 20. An elastic partition 25 is placed at the head of the table to prevent backing up of the ore fed to the head of the table against the canvas throat of the air passage 23. A pneumatic joint 15, Fig. 4, prevents the passage of air between the sides of the frame and the suction box. The table is supported by an adjustable spring 5. Screws 27 provide for a further adjustment of the suction box 11.

Abstract: 8022. Gilbert, W. V. April 5. Operating doors by lever mechanism. - Mechanism for transforming movement in one plane into movement in a plane at an angle to the first suitable for closing and locking a porthole of a ship or an orifice in any other structure, comprises a lever such as d, Fig. 1, rotatable about an axis d<1>, a lever such as c rotatable about an axis c<Î> in a plane at an angle to that in which the lever d rotates, and a connecting- link e connected by universal joints to the levers and so constructed that it may automatically change in length during the operation of the mechanism. The change in length is effected by the rotation of the link e in the screwed socket e<0>. Fig. 5 shows the mechanism applied as a combined operating and locking mechanism for ships' portholes &c. The lever d is hinged at d' to a lug b<0> on the rim b of the port-light, which is hinged in the usual manner to the side of the ship. The connecting-link e carries an operating-handle x at the outer end, and at the inner end is connected to a lug c‹ on a locking-ring c, which passes round the light and carries locking - devices engaging with lugs projecting from the sides of the porthole. The rotation of the ring e about the centre of the porthole corresponds to the movement of the lever c about the axis c<Î> in Fig. 1. When the handle x is pulled forward, the ring e is first rotated until the port-light is unlocked, after which the port-light swings forward without any further relative movement between the parts of the mechanism. Adjustment of the parts may be effected by disconnexion of any particular joint and adjustment of one of the screw-threaded connexions. In a modification, the lever d may be pivoted to the side of the ship instead of to the port-light, the lengths of the levers being correspondingly varied.

Granted: 1915-01-14
Abstract: 2430. Ross, Sir C. H. A. F. L. Jan. 29. Breech actions, sliding breech-block.-Relates to straight-pull rotary bolt actions, and consists mainly in a special construction of the bolt, operating-slide, and breech body. The operating-slide comprises a sleeve 5, shown developed in Fig. 16, having internal steep helical grooves 30 formed by the edges of interrupted screw-threads 28, 32. These grooves are engaged by ribs 27, Fig. 9, on the bolt, these ribs being formed at the rear by interrupted screw-threads 27<1>. When the sleeve 5 is pulled back, the bolt 6 is rotated by the ribs 27 and grooves 30 until the interrupted screw 25 on the bolt head is released from the corresponding recesses in the breech body. When the bolt begins to move rearwards, it is given a slight further rotation by means of a cam-surface 34, Fig. 8, on the breech body; this rotation causes the interrupted screws on the bolt and bolt sleeve to interlock and thus lock these parts together. Near the end of the closing movement, the bolt is given a slight rotary movement in the reverse direction by a cam 37, Fig. 7, to free it from the operating-sleeve. The firing-spring 10, Fig. 3, is compressed when the sleeve 5 is pulled back, a shoulder 61 on the sleeve engaging the cocking-head 9. The shoulder 61 is so placed that the firing-pin cannot reach the cartridge unless the sleeve 5 is fully forwards with the bolt completely locked. When the trigger is pulled, a pawl 20 pivoted to the sear is raised behind the shoulder 61, so that the breech cannot be opened until the trigger is released. The extractor 40, Fig. 14, is slidingly mounted by its shank 39 in a longitudinal slot in the operating-sleeve 5, and has a transverse circular rib 45 fitting into a slot 46, Fig. 9, in the bolt head; hence the extractor moves longitudinally with the bolt. but does not rotate.

Abstract: 3726. Bellens, C. Feb. 18, 1913, [Convention date]. Cylindrical and like valves.-In hydraulic transmission apparatus, more particularly of the kind in which the valve devices are arranged to place each of the primary pumps either in short circuit or in the working circuit, the solid portions of the valves e in cross-sections through the ports are made to exceed 180 degrees, as shown. By this means, back pressure forces each valve tightly on its seating, thereby minimizing leakage. The passages d communicating with the working circuit are also well flared so that the back-pressure can act freely on the valve.
