Granted: 1910-01-27
Abstract: 1998. Br³ll, M. Feb. 1, 1908, [Convention date]. Drawings to Specification. Resistances, self-reducing, applicabla for motor starting, may consist, according to the Specification in the original form, as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a), of stable halogmides, oxides, sulphides, selenides, tellurides, phosphides, arsenides, carbides, silicides, and borides, for instance copper chloride, lime, magnesia, rare-earth oxides, copper oxide, nickel oxide, iron sulphide, tin sulphide, zinc phosphide, optionally mixed or with addition of conductive material; they may be agglomerated by beat, pressure, or chemical action ; and may be used in a solid or in a liquid state, either dissolved or fused, or in a gaseous state. Auxiliary heating-means may be provided. One construction consists of a cylindrical resistive core cast into a porcelain case and having conical ends connected to metal terminals, good contact being assured by galvanically coating the conical ends. In a modified form, the resistance material is enclosed in a porcelain case upon which a heating- coil is wound, one terminal of the resistance being connected to the heater. The terminals are split to engage tubular connexions on a board. In a modification of this, the heater is embedded in the resistance material, the two having common terminals; this form is suitable for polyphase currents. This subject-matter does not appear in the Complete Specification as accepted.

Title: A Method of and Apparatus for Stoppering Bottles with Capsules.
Inventor: LASSEN AXEL JULIUS LAURITS
Filed: 1909-02-02
Granted: 1909-04-01
Abstract: 2538. Lassen, A. J. L. Feb. 2. Capsules, crown corks, and the like, applying. -Relates to a machine for making capsules and applying them to bottles. The bottle d is placed upon an adjustable spring rest f beneath a camoperated punch 6, which fits a circular die u fixed to the table p of the machine by a screw ring v. The metal strip n, from which the capsules are formed, is fed intermittently from a reel 27 by feed-rolls 28, 29 over the die u. A paper strip may be fed from another reel 27 to form a packing-washer. On the descent of the punch 6, a disk is punched from the strip n. The edge of the disk, after its severance from the strip n, is held between the punch 6 and a ring t fixed to a plate q, which is yieldingly supported by balance weights (not shown). The bottle-neck enters an aperture 9 in the punch 6, and the capsule is closed round it by a rubber ring 10 as usual. A clutch 41, operated by a pedal 47, is arranged so as to allow the mainshaft 20 to make one revolution only each time the pedal is depressed. The momentum of the moving parts is absorbed by a spring 49, which acts against a cam 24 during the latter part of each operation. Overrunning of the clutch is thus prevented.

The delivering-device in each case comprises a bar o carrying two slotted arms n, in which rest the staves, and an arm r, and kept in the position shown in Fig. 5, by the action of a spiral spring coiled around it. A projection u, Fig. 3, on the receiver forces back the arm r, which is caught by a spring- controlled hook k and so turns the holders n into the delivery position. The receiver comprises a frame a carrying a basket or net b and flexible plates z to retain the transferred article, and buffer plates L, L<1> normally vertical under the action of spiral springs to arrest the transit of the article. The devices at the station are balanced at the ends of rods by means of weights D, such that the receipt or delivery of the article causes the arms to assume the approximately vertical positions shown. The receiver on the train may carry an inclined plane q to tilt up the stationary delivering-apparatus, and a projection g may be provided to steady the stationary receiver by engaging an eye on the upright post. The devices on the train are pivoted on axes c, d and may be vertically adjustable under the action of screws h. A cylindrical casing in two parts with end pivots is used to carry correspondence to be transferred; an arm with a recess may be used for transferring articles like balls.
