Title: Improvements in or relating to methods of and apparatus for mounting filaments for electric incandescent lamps and similar articles
IPC: H01K3/10
Filed: 1929-06-25
Abstract: 314,353. British Thomson-Houston Co., Ltd., (Assignees of Flaws, J.). June 25, 1928, [Convention date]. Filaments, attaching; supports for.- In mounting a filament on a stem it is positioned adjacent to the straight ends of the anchor wires and within hooks formed at the ends of the lead wires, and the ends of the anchor wires are bent around the filament and the lead wire hooks are clamped on to it. The stem shown is of the ordinary kind described in Specification 147,293. In the machine described, the stems 13 are mounted in clamps arranged around an intermittently rotating spider and brought to the filament-mounting mechanism, which is carried by brackets 18 adapted to be rocked aside to allow passage of the stems. A number of radial slides 34 are moved inwards to grip the middle parts of the anchor wires 17 between them, but before the wires are gripped the slides are moved vertically downwards so that pins 37, Figs. 8 and 11, which bridge the gaps between them depress the wires from the horizontal to a fixed angular position, several of the intermediate positions being shown in Fig. 8. Straight lengths of filament 52, Fig. 2, are fed to formers arranged around an intermittently rotating table 49, and when each former arrives opposite the mounting- mechanism the filament has been shaped around a die 54 by a forming-plate 53 provided with a central spring clamp 55 that holds the middle of the filament against the die. Two pairs of grippers 66, 67 then seize the ends of the semicircular filament and are rotated through a halfrevolution by means of a rack 74 and a pinion 73 and then moved along a slideway 72 to position the filament beneath the ends of the anchor wires 17, which have been bent to the position shown in broken lines in Fig. 14 by a rising die 81, Fig. 11, having a groove 82 adapted to guide the wires. The ends of the filament are located' in the hooks on the lead wires 14, Fig. 1. The dies 81 are then raised further so that the semi-circular ends of the grooves 82 coil the ends of the wires 17 around the filament as shown in full lines in Fig. 14, and pincers 86, 87 on a vertical slide 88, Fig. 1, rise and secure the ends of the filament in the hooks of the leads 14.

Title: Improvements in or relating to apparatus for holding and adjusting cutting tools in lathes
IPC: B23B29/16
Filed: 1944-10-11
Abstract: 600,725. Turning. HARRIS, C. S., and GOLD, B. Oct. 11, 1944, No. 19616. [Class 83 (iii)]  A lathe tool box comprises a transversely adjustable slide carried on a head with clamping means for a tool on said slide enabling the tool to be adjusted longitudinally of itself on the slide, and a setting block, against a face of which, the tool is adapted to be set, the block being mounted so as to be movable towards and away from the axis of the workpiece. The tool box is similar in construction to that described in Specification 567,108 with the added features that (1) the setting block 12 is carried in a slide and frictionally held by a spring clamping device 36, 37 so that it may be withdrawn vertically when not in use ; (2) an additional slide 7 is provided for the tool which permits limited transverse movement under control of adjustable stops 8 and 9 and fixed abutments 10. The slide is spring-biassed into the position shown in Fig. 4 with the tool overhanging the work which occurs at the end of a cut but on engagement with a fresh piece of stock to be cut it is pushed back so that stops 11 contact the fixed abutments 10. The slide 7 may be slightly inclined so that the tool rides clear of the stock at the end of a cut.

Abstract: 424,258. Washing granular materials. HUNTER, S., Newlyn, Penzance, Cornwall. July 13, 1933, No. 19882. [Class 82 (ii)] Coal or other mineral to be washed and graded is passed over a perforated shaking table divided into sections or over a series of perforated shaking tables and in passing from one section to the next or from one table to the next it is caused to pass over a grading grid of slat-like formation, on which it is subjected to the action of sprays of water delivered under high pressure, e.g. 400 pounds per square inch. In the form shown coal from a shoot 1 passes on to a perforated shaking table 2 on which it is washed by jets from nozzles 3 connected to the usual water mains. At the end of the table 2 it passes over a grading grid 5 mounted on the table framework on which it is washed by high pressure jets from nozzles 9. It then passes on to the table 6 to which are secured two grading grids 7 and 8, one between successive sections of the table and the other at the end of the table, nozzles 10, 11 for high pressure jets being provided above the grids 7, 8 respectively. The nozzles preferably are arranged to produce needle jets of water or they may deliver revolving sprays. The grading grid is preferably formed of spaced bars of substantially triangular cross-section, the bars tapering in width in the direction of travel of the material. Collecting boxes or trunks 12, 13, 14 may be arranged beneath the grids, for returning the washing water to circulation, preferably after settling.

Title: Improvements in or relating to self-destruction devices for electrical capacitor fuzes for explosive projectiles
IPC: F42C9/18
Filed: 1960-06-09
Abstract: 923,521. Ammunition fuzes. RHEINMETALL G.m.b.H. June 9, 1960 [June 9, 1959], No. 20357/60. Class 9 (1). An electric fuze for a projectile in which a condenser 4 is charged electrostatically as in Specification 751,579, is provided with self-destruction means 7 which prevents charging of the condenser during transport and storage. The body 1 of the projectile is in electrical connection with the fuze body 2, the nose 3 of the fuze being insulated from the body 2. The condenser 4 is in series connection with the nose 3, a primer 5 and a percussion member 6, which during transport is in contact with the means 7. Means 7 is a spring which is also in contact with the nose 3 and so short-circuits the condenser 4. After the projectile is fired, due to the rotation thereof, the spring 7 is deflected and the condenser becomes charged. As the angular velocity decreases, the spring returns to the first position. The condenser then discharges through the primer 5 and ignites the latter. Movement of the spring may also be governed by the linear acceleration of the projectile. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 751,579.
