Patent GB-189804919-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Registering or Recording Apparatus.
Inventor: VOIGT HEINRICH JULIUS FERDINAN
Filed: 1898-02-28
Granted: 1899-01-14
Abstract: 4919. Voigt, H. J. F., and Haeffner, J. A. Feb. 28. Secondary batteries.-The invention, which is stated to be widely applicable, depends upon the principle that, if a piston moves under gravity in a cylinder filled with viscous fluid such as glycerine, the speed of the movement will depend on the size of the aperture through which the fluid passes from one end of the cylinder to the other. The aperture is controlled by a valve which may open it more or less according to the condition of the apparatus of which the performance is being tested. The number of times the cylinder descends and is wound up again is registered on a counter. Fig. 3 shows a device for indicating the condition of an accumulator. Two equal pistons b, b<1> in the cylinders a, a' are connected by the cord r passing over the pulley d, and the cores of solenoids f, g by the cord r<1> wound round the pulley e. The index-finger x is mounted on the common axis of the pulleys d, e. When charging the accumulator, the current is passed through the solenoids k, f, causing the piston b to fall and opening the valve more or less according to the current. Then, in discharging, the current passes through the solenoids k, g, the movement is reversed, and the index finger x shows the amount of energy remaining in the accumulator. When the invention is applied to electric apparatus, the fall of the piston to its lowest position breaks circuit so that a continued unregistered use of the apparatus is prevented. In the case of electric lighting, the circuit is not broken, but a resistance is inserted.

Abstract: 20,564. Nutt, J. N., [Johnston, A.]. Sept. 29. Surfacing and polishing.-Relates to apparatus for grinding the surfaces of dies for rolling or forging the blades of table knives, or of workholders for use in grinding such blades. The curved die x, for use in rolling, is retained in a holder E which fits in a guideway in the turntable D. This is provided with handles d' by which it may be turned on a slide C, adjustable to and from the annular grinding-ring B. A vertical plane, passing through the centre of the turntable and parallel to the axis of the grinding-ring, passes outside the periphery of the ring, so that a concave surface is produced upon the die as it is swung in front of the ring. The requisite twist in this concave surface is imparted by mounting the front end of the holder on a pivot f, and guiding its rear end over an inclined path h. This path is readily removable, and may be replaced by another, according to the work to be performed. If the centre of the turntable is nearer the axis of the grinding-ring, a flat surface is produced ; if still nearer, so that the plane passing through it passes within the inner edge of the ring, a convex surface is produced. For grinding straight dies, for forging &c., the die is secured to a T-shaped holder, the tail of which rests upon an inclined guide ; the edge of the die itself is guided on a straight guide. The inclined guide is in the form of a double-ended lever, which may be tilted to reverse the inclination.

Title: Process for Obtaining Ferric Sulphate and Metal Sulphates from Iron Pyrites and other Sulphide Ores.
Inventor: MEURER OTTO
Filed: 1899-11-27
Granted: 1900-09-08
Abstract: 23,664. Meurer, O. Nov. 27. Iron, copper, zinc, and nickel sulphates.-Ferric sulphate is obtained from pyrites by heating the latter out of contact with air with an alkaline polysulphide, or with an alkaline monosulphide or with a mixture which will yield an alkaline monosulphide, whereby the iron bisulphide is converted into iron monosulphide, and then allowing the mass to oxidize in the air until the iron monosulphide has become ferric sulphate, which is subsequently leached out. Other metal sulphates, such as copper, zinc, and nickel, are similarly obtained from sulphide ores containing iron bisulphide as well as the sulphides of these metals, it only being necessary to add either ores containing iron bisulphide or sulphide ores free from iron, as the case may be, so as to obtain a mixture in which the sulphur combined with the iron is just sufficient to convert all the metals, except the iron, into sulphates.
