Class 20(4) In a building element having a gridlike carrier for a surface-type, apertured lath, the latter, which is preferably of welded wire net, is affixed to one set of rods of the carrier and an interlayer impermeable to plaster and consisting preferably of a foil is arranged adjacent to the contact surface of the two sets of rods of the carrier to limit penetration of the the plaster through the lath. As shown in Fig. 1, the element comprises an apertured lath a of expanded metal or a closemeshed wire net of crossed, straight wires welded together at the crossings, arranged on one side of a gridlike carrier b formed by spaced, longitudinal rods or wires 2 of round section and parallel, transverse rods or wires 3 of round or rectangular section welded at 4 to the rods 2, an interlayer c of metal foil, close-meshed net, paper fabric which may be impregnated, or of synthetic plastic, being disposed above the lath a. The foil c is provided at the crossing of the rods 2, 3 with holes 5 to facilitate making of the welds 4. The element may be galvanized or coated with bituminous or plastic-base substances. In modifications, (a), further longitudinal rods 7, Fig. 3, are connected by a zig-zag rod 8 to increase the load-carrying capacity of the element, (b) two elements, Fig. 5, are connected by an intermediate structure to form a single element for a wall, laths a being disposed on both sides of the element, (c) the laths a are prestressed by bending the carrier b during manufacture, affixing the laths to the concave side of the carrier and then bending back the carrier to produce the initial stress in the laths, (d) the carrier is formed with bends f, Fig. 7, which are bridged by the flat laths a; the bends may be reinforced by grid-like or expanded metal strips, (e) two wall elements are connected by welding at the apices g, Fig. 15, of the bends f, plaster j being applied to the lathing, and the cavities h between the bends being filled with creased aluminium foil, or mortar or concrete when objects are to be affixed to the wall; a guide strip of channel-shaped sheet metal nailed to a floor holds the wall in position. Various ways in which pairs of elements are connected by welding to form a wall structure are described.

Title: Improvements in or relating to pneumatic rock or coal drills
Inventor: RITCHIE WILLIAM
IPC: E21B21/01
Filed: 1956-11-21
Abstract: 794,955. Percussive tools. CONSOLIDATED PNEUMATIC TOOL CO., Ltd. Nov. 21, 1956, No. 35544/56. Class 124. A pneumatic rock drill having a manually operated air valve and means for supplying a spray of liquid against the rock being cut, has an obstructor co-operating with the air valve to preclude movement of the valve to open it, and means to retract the obstructor when the liquid pressure is above a predetermined value. As shown, a mushroom air valve 10 is operated by a trigger 5 which presses on a sleeve 4 surrounding the valve stem and having a space between the end of the stem and the cap of the sleeve to give some lost motion. An obstructor 3 in the form of an extension to a piston 36 is urged by a spring 17 into engagement with an annular groove 7 in the sleeve 4 and prevents movement of the sleeve to open the air valve. Water under pressure is introduced through an inlet 11 and by way of passages 13 and 16 enters a space 1 above the piston 36. When the water pressure is sufficient to overcome the resistance of the spring 17 the piston is moved to retract the obstructor from the groove 7, so allowing the sleeve to move and open the air valve. The stem 39 of a water supply valve 20 engages a cam 19 on the surface of,the sleeve and opens the water valve during the lost motion movement of the sleeve. The opening of the water valve takes place before the opening of the air valve so that water is supplied to sprayers 8 before the drill starts operating.

Title: A multi-stand reducing apparatus having means for presetting the rotational speeds of the blocks of rolls of the stands
IPC: H02P5/46
Filed: 1970-07-23
Abstract: 1291623 Drawing; rolling mills OFFICE TECHNIQUE DES TREFILES 23 July 1970 [5 Aug 1969] 35730/70 Headings B3M and B3P The required rotational speeds of the rolls or blocks of a multi-stand strip or rod rolling mill or a wire drawing machine are automatically set when the desired diameters of the material at each stand are set on dials or rules having logarithmic scales. In one embodiment, the scale of each dial 13 of an intermediate wire drawing block is angularly offset with respect to that of the finishing block in accordance with a particular ratio between the speeds of the intermediate and finishing blocks. Each dial 13 is mounted on a toothed wheel 14 engaged with a worm 15 on a shaft 16. The desired finish diameter of the material is first set by rotating the dial 13 in front of a fixed hairline by the shaft 16, the dials 13 of the intermediate blocks being rotated by an equal amount. The shaft 16 is then locked by a clamp 18 and the desired diameter of material at each intermediate block set by moving a hairline on a wheel 21 in front of the dial 13. The position of the wheel 21 determines the position of a slider of a potentiometer 11 which sets the required speed of an electric motor driving the block. The speed of the finishing block is variable by a potentiometer (AB) (Fig. 6, not shown). In another embodiment (Figs. 9 and 10, not shown), the position of the wheel 21 determines the position of a spigot (30) relative to a lever (25) which controls an hydraulic motor driving the block. The machine may include dancer rollers and a wire coiler.
