Title: Improvements in and relating to Furnaces for Heating and Burning Refuse.
Inventor: WEGENER CARL
Filed: 1897-02-13
Granted: 1898-01-15
Abstract: 3927. Wegener, C. Feb. 13. Refuse-consuming furnaces.-Two arrangements embodying the same principles are shown in Figs. 1 and 5. The refuse is cast from the hopper k, Fig. 1, into the more or less vertical shaft i around which the furnace gases play as they escape to the flue h. From this heated shaft the distilled gases are carried off by the conduit m, and passed into the front of the furnace on each side of the fuel aperture a. From the combustion chamber b, the gases pass into the refuse chamber d, and so on as indicated by arrows. In the arrangement shown in Fig. 5, a pair of charging-flues i, immediately above the combustion chamber b, converge to the chamber d. The gas passages are shown at m. In this case the escape flues return at g above the charging-flues i before passing to the flue h.

Granted: 1898-04-23
Abstract: 13,665. Young, W., and Fyfe, J. June 3. Distillation, destructive.-Comprises improvements in retorts of the class described in Specification No. 1377, A.D. 1882, for the destructive distillation of shale. The retorts A are provided with enlarged multiple hoppers B for the reception of the fresh shale, and with enlarged chambers F for the reception of the exhausted shale. The hoppers B are built up of steel plates, and are bolted at the bottom to flanges b on the upper ends of the retorts, so as to permit of differential expansion. The shale is fed continuously into the retorts by rods or chains C carried by a rocking shaft or by a slit tube D, attached to a rocking shaft D', and in connection with the hydraulic main E. The spent shale is discharged into the receiving-chambers F by means of a series of prongs G extending through a grating I and carried by a rocking shaft H actuated by levers J engaging with reciprocating bars K. In an alternative arrangement, the pronged rocking shafts are replaced by worms or screws formed one half with a right-hand thread and the other half with a lefthand thread.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Controllers for Electric Motor Circuits and in Blow Out Magnets for Use with same.
Filed: 1897-06-08
Granted: 1897-07-24
Abstract: 13,972. British Thomson-Houston Co., [Potter, W. B., and Case, F. E.]. June 8. Motors, controlling.-Consists of a combination of resistance switch, reversing-switch, commutator (to vary the relations of the motors), and switches to cut-out either of the motors in case of disablement. The switches interlock, and a magnetic blow-out is fitted to minimize arcing. Fig. 2 shows an elevation, and Fig. 3 a part sectional plan. The shaft A' of the resistance switch A<2> is supported by bearings in the cover and in a footstep above the shaft K of the reversing-switch. It carries spiders C, C' to which are secured insulating-strips A<5> on which the contacts A<3>, A<4> are fitted. The contacts bridge the fixed contacts D', arranged in vertical rows, when the switch is reciprocated. The ends of the contacts or brushes are fitted with tips D<6>, which are arranged within chutes E<8> to separate them from the pole-pieces E<1> of the blow-out magnets. These consist of a number of coils E<4> mounted on a core, each coil being in a separate circuit and separated by the pole-pieces. The magnet structure is so mounted that it may be locked in position or be drawn aside by the handle E<5>, in order to inspect the contacts. The contacts are so arranged in the switch that the circuit is broken on either side alternately. The reversing-switch J, J<1> is mounted on the shaft K and turns within the resistance switch to save space. It consists of rotary contacts which engage with fixed contacts. The shaft A' of the resistance switch carries a cam L which operates a rod L<2> and locks the handle K<1> of the reversing- switch, so that it cannot be operated except when the resistance switch is in the 'off' position. The commutator switch for varying the relation of the motors is contained within a casing M, and is operated by the handle P<2> through the shaft O<3> and rod O<1>. The shaft O<3> can only be rotated when the resistance switch is off. The cut-out switches for the motors are so connected to the commutating switch that they can only be operated when the motors are in series, and when operated they lock the commutating switch. The discs of the reversing-switches are so mounted on the square spindles as to give an universal joint of limited play.

Granted: 1899-04-15
Abstract: 10,729. Boylan, J. May 11. Feeding sheets.-Fig. 2 shows a sectional elevation of the feed end of a printing-machine. The pile of sheets is placed on a table A raised by chains A<2> &c. and guided by inclined guides A<5>. At the front edge of the table is an inclined plate A<9>, against which the front edges of the sheets rest and are partly feathered. The upper sheets are further feathered by a curved separating- pad C of rubber. This pad may be pivoted, and may be adjusted by a pivoted arm C<2>. Above the pad C is a quadrant D on a rocking-shaft D<2>, and on each side of the quadrant D is a feed-roller E. The shaft E<2> carrying the rollers E is journalled in an arm E<3> pivoted to the quadrant. The feed-rollers are prevented from rotating, as they move forward with the quadrant, by a ratchet and pawl E<8>. The feed-rollers preferably consist of a covering of rubber e on spongy rubber e<2> fixed to a wood core. The arm E<3> is pressed by a spring E<4> to press the feedrollers on to the sheets. The chains A<2> pass over sprocket-wheels on the shaft B<2>, and are provided with weights i. The shaft B<2 >is operated by a ratchet-wheel B<4> and pawl B<5> on an arm connected by the rod B<7> to a stud on a collar on the rock shaft D<2>. The action of the pawl B<5> is regulated by an arm H having a stop screw H<3> for engaging an arm B<9> of the pawl. The arm H has a roller H' resting on the pile. The roller H<2> is made more or less star-shaped, as shown, to assist in feathering the sheets. The sheet is drawn by the feed-rollers E on to the first tape-roller, which is in rotation and in conjunction with the rollers E completely draws off the sheet. The sheets are registered sideways against side gauges by moving the bottom tape roller longitudinally of its axis. This is effected by a slide engaging the roller, operated by levers and a cam &c. The slide also moves the rod carrying the bottom lays.
