Inventor: NEWTON PHILIP ARTHUR
IPC: B29D30/10
Filed: 1912-03-05
Granted: 1912-11-28
Abstract: 5535. Newton, P. A., [Laski & Thropp Circular Woven Tire Co., de]. March 5. Tyres, elastic, special apparatus for making -A tyre - building machine comprises a casing 1, Fig. 1, on which is mounted a former 105 adapted to be driven at variable speeds in both directions, a cylinder 61 adjustable in a sleeve 43 mounted on a standard on the casing and carrying the supply roll 67 and take - up 79, mechanism for forming the layers of fabric on the former carried on a laterally - disposed bracket 83, and mechanism for trimming the edges of the finished tyre carried on an oppositely - disposed bracket 143. The forming - elements comprise rollers 132, Fig. 14, mounted on arcuate members 122 slidably carried by. members 97, which are pivoted at 98 to a carriage 85 and controlled by a weight 103 and the hand-operated worm gearing 112, by which arrangement the rollers can be held up to the work with any required degree of pressure. The rollers are caused, to move radially across the tyre by the movement of the carriage 85 under the action of screw-andnut mechanism, which can be operated by the hand-wheel 88 or from the main source of power through the gearing 89, 90, a roller 96 on an adjustable slide being provided to act on the lever 95 and throw out the clutch 94 at a predetermined instant. The rollers are fed over the outer surface of the beads by hand, the members 122 being then swung into the position shown in dotted lines to work over the inner surface. The rollers may be positively driven by electric motors 138, Fig. 1. The knives 151, Fig. 8, for trimming the edges are carried in holders 152 pivoted to swing vertically on slide-plates 156 traversed across bedplates 149 by screw-andnut mechanism and are kept up to . the work resiliently by springs 159. The plates 149 are pivoted to the arm 140, which is pivoted to a plate 142 adapted to slide on the bracket 143 fixed to the main casing. Rings 162, Fig. 11, of L-section are employed to adjust and hold the bead cores in proper position.

Abstract: 11,285. English Lace Co., and Mason, W. H. May 13. Lace.-Helates to the production, on curtainlace machines having two or three guide-bars, of the inclined thread and diamond effects shown from a centre bar h carrying patterning or ground threads l. A back bar g carries thick spool threads j by means of which two, three, and four gait clothing is obtained, and a front bar i may be used to provide warp threads k, which are pillared to strengthen the fabric. On the back motion, the bar h rises two gaits, after which the jacks enter ; the bar then falls one gait before the carriages pass to the back combs. On the front motion, the bar h rests, after which the jacks enter and the bar then falls one gait before the carriages return to the front combs. When the jacks are held in the position q clear of the threads l, the threads pillar with their own group of threads, and when the jacks are held in the position r on a back motion, the threads l will be tied to adjacent pillars. The effect A is produced by inserting the jacks to the position r on the back motions and to the position q on the front motions. By holding the jacks in the position r for a number of successive motions commencing with a back motion and then Lolding them clear of the threads fur a number of motions commencing with a front motion, the effect B is obtained. The effect C is produced by holding the jacks in the position q on a front motion and in the position r on the three succeeding motions. The effect D is produced by holding the jacks in the position q on the back motions and in the position r on the front motions. The inclined threads are then tied to the adjacent pillars by bolding the jacks in the position r on a back motion and the threads can then be caused to pillar or may be returned to the original position by holding the jacks iu the position q on a front motion. The effects E is produced by first tying the threads l to the adjacent pillars by holding the jacks in the position r on a back motion, after which the jacks are held in the position q on the back motions and in the position r on the front motions until it is required to take the threads back to the original position when the jacks are held in the position q on a front motion and in the position r on the succeeding back motion, or the threads may be tied to either pillar for more than one motion. The column F shows a combination of the effects A, C, D and E. Columns G show a combination of effects D and E giving a diamond effect.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Pulling-over and like Machines for use in the Manufacture of Boots and Shoes.
IPC: A43D23/02
Filed: 1912-12-24
Granted: 1913-12-24
Abstract: 29,754. Gouldbourn, J., and British United Shoe Machinery Co. Dec. 24. Pulling-over.-The rise of a pincer-carrying lever of a pulling-over or similar machine, when the pincers are released, is retarded by a plunger mounted on the machine frame entering a cylinder containing liquid, adapted to be engaged and pressed upwards by the pincer-carrying lever, the liquid being allowed to escape slowly from the cylinder. The device may also be used for controlling the updraw of the pincers. The cylinder A is arranged to slide in a bore formed in a boss B on the machine frame. It has a bore of small diameter A<1> at its lower end to take the plunger, and a bore A<2> of wider diameter at the top, into which oil from the lower part of the cylinder may escape. An overhanging flange A<4> prevents splashing. The plunger C is hollow, the upper part forming a guide for the stem C<8> of an adjustable valve by which the rate of escape of the oil through the passage in the lower part is controlled. A strong spring D normally forces the cylinder off the piston, thus allowing the oil to collect in the narrow part of the bore. The piston C is secured to the machine frame at its upper end, this part being made barrel-shaped to permit a slight rocking motion of the piston. Specification 6827/07 is referred to.
