Abstract: 4554. Ollivier, A. Feb. 19. Motor road vehicles; locomotive tramway engines.-Relates to belt and toothed differential variable - speed and reversing driving-gear, to means for operating the brakes, and to the steering-gear. Fig. 1 shows a sectional elevation, and Fig. 2 a plan, of a vehicle with the invention applied. The shafts from which the vehicle wheels are driven receive motion through balance gear h<7> which derives its motion from differential gear a. The latter derives a differential motion from the motor countershaft b through belts b<2>, b<7>, the amount and sense of the difference being regulable by the shifting of the latter belt. The shafts a<2> and a<4> in the belt gear, in order to relieve the belts of excessive strain, may be connected by differential or balance gear A. Starting and stopping is provided for by a longitudinal adjustment of a frame e supporting the shaft b, which may be effected by a hand-lever g<5> By this means the belts are tightened or slackened. The movement of this frame is made to apply the brakes h<6> whenever the belts are slack. The brakes are arranged so as to be also capable of independent application by the depression of the pedal i. In order that steering shall not be affected by oscillation of the vehicle on its springs, a sliding connection in the linkage is provided at k.

Granted: 1897-10-30
Abstract: 22,217. British Thomson-Houston Co., [Thomson, E.]. Sept. 28. Motor meters, having permanent magnetic brakes, are provided with means to prevent alteration of the strength of the magnets by the accidental passage of excessive currents through the main coils of the meters. Either the magnets or the coils, or both, are enclosed or partly enclosed by non-magnetic closed conducting-circuits, in which opposite currents are induced by any sudden variation in the main current, and the strong magnetic field of the latter thus limited. Fig. 1 represents one arrangement applied to an energy meter, in which the main-current field coils C are surrounded by parallel copper conductors S, made either solid or of wire. Such shields may be otherwise arranged near or between the layers of the coils, or round the brake magnets and disc D. Fig. 5 shows a brake magnet enclosed in a copper casting.

Granted: 1899-01-07
Abstract: 1810. Martin, E. Jan. 22. Wire.-Relates to making wire having a steel core and an outer coating of silver. A steel bar is turned to the shape shown in Fig. 1, pickled, and coated electrically with copper or copper and either tin and zinc. The bar is then placed in a bath of water and rubbed with a compound of cyanide of silver and cream of tartar. The bar is then washed, cleaused, and dried, and wrapped up in a series of overlapping longitudinal strips of silver or silver alloy foil, Fig. 5. A hempen band is wound helically round the silver-covered bar, which is then placed ou supports s, Fig. 7, in iron tubes T over a firegrate where, when the tube T has been closed, the coated bar is heated to 500‹ or 600‹ C. The bar is taken out by tongs p placed against a support D, Fig. 8, and acted upon by burnishing-tools to cause a first adherence of the silver to the steel. The bar, while still hot, is reheated in a furnace burning wood fuel and passed through rolls with round grooves to complete the adhesion of the two metals, and is finally rolled and drawn down to the required size. This compound wire can be used for telegraph and telephone wire, wire gauze, hooks and eyes for garment, wiring for bottles, wire rings, metallic brushes, and other purposes.

Granted: 1899-02-04
Abstract: 24,478. Wood, A. Nov. 19. Brakes operated by a movement of the handle-bar. Figs. 1 and 2 show the application of the invention to a bicycle. The brake shoe I<1>, Fig. 2, is carried by the rod E, which passes up the steering-post and is adjustably connected to a short tube K by means of the screwed portion G and the nut H. A spring, the tension of which may be adjusted by a nut, surrounds the rod E and serves to bring the brake out of action. The handle-bar stem D carries a chamber L in which is rigidly fixed the handle-bar tube. A tube or shaft N works within the handle-bar tube, and is provided with a pin 0 adapted to act upon the end of the tube K. By depressing the handles Q which are attached to the shaft N, the brake may be applied. One end of a bell-crank lever S may be pivoted to the fork crown C, and the other end connected by a link U to an extension piece T provided on the brake block. To the knuckle of the lever S a wire W is connected which may be used to apply a rear-wheel brake, as shown in Fig. 1, simultaneously with the front-wheel brake. This brake consists of a bridge-piece a carrying a piece b to which is pivoted a lever c carrying at its upper end the brake block d, and attached at its lower end to the wire W. A spring f is interposed between the piece b and the lever c. By this arrangement of brake mechanism the vibration transmitted to the hands of the rider is stated to be decreased.

Abstract: 18,980. Crehore, A. C., and Squier, G. O. Sept. 20. Telegraphs.-Relates to improvements applicable to use with the apparatus described in Specifications No. 23,556, A.D. 1898, No. 4931, A.D. 1899, and Nos. 21,630 and 23,687, A.D. 1893. The Provisional Specification also refers to Specification No. 6787, A.D. 1897. When two or more impulses of the same sign are sent to line in series, the electromotive force of the generator is reduced, by an impedance coil, shunt, resistance coil, counter electromotive force, electrostatic capacity, the combination of two or more of the above, or by breaking the generator circuit either between the generator and transmitter, or between the transmitter and line. Fig. 1 shows how an impedance coil &c. 11 is inserted in the generator circuit. 1, 2 are the ordinary + and - brushes in circuit with the magnets 3 and 4 for putting either pole to the generator to line or earth. I, II are additional pilot brushes, which close the local circuits of magnets I<b>, II<b> when two or more impulses of the same sign come in immediate succession. The magnets I<b>, II<b> attract the armature 12, introducing the impedance &c. 11 into the generator circuit. When levers, instead of contactbrushes, are employed, the action of both pilot and ordinary lever simultaneously closes the local circuit, inserting the impedance &c. in the generator circuit. The armature 12 may close a shunt across the generator, or may open the generator or line circuit.

Feedwater, controlling. -In water - tube and d other boilers the water level is adjusted by a thermostatic device. Assuming that the water is below the normal level, steam will enter and expand the hollow casing 23, causing the knife edge 69 to raise the pivoted arm 38, which is connected by an adjustable rod 42 to the pivoted lever 61, the outer bent end 64 of which depresses the spindle of the valve 4 and allows water to flow to the boiler until the mouth of the stand-pipe is covered, when the steam in the condensing- coil 6<e> is liquefied and the thermostat contracts, and closes the valve. When steam is again admitted to the thermostat, the water therein is forced through a valve into a waste pipe. A free supply of water to the boiler may be obtained by depressing the cap 18 of the valve 4 and locking it by a pivoted hooked lever.
