Title: Improvements in and in connection with the Dunging and Mordanting of Cotton Piece Goods.
Filed: 1906-12-21
Granted: 1907-11-28
Abstract: 29,135. Calico Printers' Association, and Hadfield, J. Dec. 21. Dyeing. - In dunging and mordanting cotton piece goods, the fixation of the mordant, prior to washing and dyeing, is effected in a small tank containing the fixing-agent, which is maintained at a constant level and temperature, and combined with a pair of squeezing-rollers to return superfluous liquid, instead of in large tanks. The mordanted cloth x enters the small tank or trough e containing the dunging or fixing agent, passes under rollers g, through squeezing-rollers h which squeeze surplus liquor back into the trough, through a steam-chamber a in a zigzag path, then similarly over and under rollers in three washing- tanks d containing water at about 130‹ F., through a cold-water tank where dirt is removed by beaters m, to squeezing and drawing rollers k which deliver it to a wince l, from which it is plaited down for removal to the dye-beck. The dunging - liquor is supplied from a reservoir f through a pipe f<1> and a perforated distributing- trough f<2>, is maintained at a constant level in the trough e by a ball tap or float valve, and is kept at the required temperature by a steam-pipe i.

Title: Improvements in Protective Devices for Electric Transmission Systems.
Filed: 1907-01-03
Granted: 1907-12-05
Abstract: 156. British Thomson - Houston Co., [Allgemeine Elektricitõts-Ges.]. Jan. 3. Safety devices for use with electric conductors.- Electric installations are protected from excessively high potentials by placing a stream of water near a conductor connected to the system. A plate b is connected to the line at c<1>, and a stream of water a flows close to the plate b. In the modification shown in Fig. 2, the plate c is connected to the lice, and is carried by a boltf supporting an insulating-rod e. The water is supplied by a water nozzle h provided with a regulating-cock g; the nozzle h being insulated by a piece of pipe k. When the pipe k is used, the water may be allowed to fall from a plate connected to the line, so that small excess potentials pass directly to earth through the water in the pipe, while heavy excess potentials spark across to an earthed electrode placed near. The width and number of jets employed may be varied and a constant circulation of the water kept up by means of a pump.

Abstract: 27,485. Evans, W. E., [Minimax Consolidated, Ltd.]. Nov. 25. Aerated sprayers. - In paint or colour sprayers, the connexion between the paint-valve casing and the paint-conduit is such that it is made without turning the casing; in addition, the connexion between the valve-lever and the air-valve comprises an open frame embracing the pain-conduit. The connexion between the paint-valve casing c, shown in Fig. 2, and the end of the paint-conduit b is obtained by a union g, a slot h being formed in the casing to engage a pin i and to ensure the correct relative position of the nozzles u, t. The conical joint formed by the faces e, f is preferred, as it prevents the formation of projections in the path of the paint, but the joint may be made by using a packing-ring. Since the casing c is not screwed to the pipe b, less clearance is required between the nozzles, and their longitudinal axes are maintained at the correct angle to each other. Between the valverod r and lever k, and pivoted to them, is an open frame o, which embraces the paint-conduit b, its function being to reduce side play on the rod r on being depressed.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Bottling Machines.
IPC: B67C7/00

Granted: 1910-05-19
Abstract: 5888. Marks, E. C. R., [Crown Cork and Seal Co.]. April 19, 1909. Capsules, applying. -Relates to bottling - machines in which, after filling, the bottles are closed by caps, and comprises reciprocating means for automatically feeding caps to a cap port in the filling-head, worki n g alternately with means for automatically sealing the cap port during filling of the bottles. Also, means are provided for locating the caps at one side of the filling chamber during filling of a bottle, the caps being subsequently tripped by the bottle as it rises into capping position, and then impelled directly over the mouth of the bottle. Automatic means are also provided for compressing a jacket to make a tight joint between the bottle and the filling- chamber. The bottling-machine may be arranged in multiple form, each of the sets of mechanism being independent and the various devices of one set operated non-synchronously with respect to like devices of the other sets. The caps are supplied from hoppers L hinged by means of arms upon a countershaft B<2>. Each hopper is provided with a rotating agitator driven by bevel-gears 5; and rigidly attached to each hopper is a curved cap chute 6. During one rocking movement of the hopper, the agitator remains substantially at rest because the bevel gear on the agitator shaft moves bodily in the same direction as its driver; on the return movement it is rotated faster than the shaft B<2>. The caps are fed through a cap port K, Figs. 2 and 10, in the side of the filling- chamber, the movements of the chute being effected through linkwork by a lever H which also compresses a washer G<3> to make a tight joint between the bottle and the filling-chamber. The lever H is operated through a link H<2> by a cam on the driving shaft. The caps are positioned in the filling-chamber by a ring G<3>, Figs. 5 and 10, provided with shoulders h<2>, and an automatically operated pin L', Fig. 10, retains the remaining caps in the chute. On the withdrawal of the chute, the port K is sealed by a block K<1> provided with a washer 10 and held in proper position by a spring i<4>. The block K<1> carries the cap - impelling spring finger K<2>, which is pressed back against its spring by bearing against the cap in the filling-chamber. When the bottle rises into capping position, it tilts the cap free of the shoulders h<2>, when the cap is impelled over the bottle mouth by the finger. In a multiple machine, the sets are operated non-synchronously by a proper arrangement of their operating-cams, and any set runs idly if no bottle is inserted.
