Title: Improvements in or relating to Vehicles specially intended for Removing Sweepings, House Refuse and the like.
Inventor: ROMANET EMILE EUGENE
IPC: E01H1/10
Filed: 1917-07-06
Abstract: 111,087. Romanet, E. Nov. 6, 1916, [Convention date]. Taking up mud and refuse for removal.-Consists in loading sweepings or refuse into a cart by a scoop or box 1 secured to bars 2 swinging about an axle 3 within which is arranged a spring adapted to raise or assist in raising the scoop. According to Fig. 3 the scoop is lowered by a cable 7 disposed within the shaft 13 and connected to a pulley 6 on the axle 3 and to a sliding handle 10. To lock the scoop in the lowered position a piece 8 is pivoted to the terminal 9 of the cable 7 so that it tends to assume a vertical position and thus to jamb within the shaft, when the thumbpiece 11 is released and is moved away from the handle by the spring 12. According to Fig. 6, the scoop is operated by a handle 4 and a crank connecting rod 21, 22. The raising movement of the scoop is effected by depressing the handle 4 with the assistance of the spring, but to complete this movement it is necessary to raise the handle slightly at the end of its downward stroke and the scoop can thus be brought to its position on the cart without shock. In a third arrangement, suitable for horse drawn carts, the handle lever is connected directly to the axle 3. The vehicle shown in Figs. 3 and 6 is of the kind having a run out box 14 for the refuse. According to the Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a), the raising spring device may be replaced by an apparatus of the " Blount " type. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in or relating to pressure responsive valve
IPC: F16K17/30
Filed: 1954-04-05
Abstract: 762,219. Fluid-pressure servomotor-control systems. OTIS ENGINEERING CORPORATION. April 5, 1954 [July 17, 1953], No. 9884/54. Class 135. A pressure responsive valve comprises a body with a flow passage therethrough, a valve seat in the passage, a valve carried by a piston, the latter forming part of a variable volume control chamber which decreases in volume as the valve closes on to its seat, and a restricted passage for admitting fluid to the control chamber; and the ratio of the volumes of the control chamber for the seated and fully unseated positions of the valve is approximately 2 or more. The solid valve head 9 is carried by a tubular member 9a which also carries a piston 11, the latter travelling in a chamber formed in a sleeve 7 which is provided with an inturned abutment forming the valve seat 10. The valve is shown in the closed position, and to open it, a needle valve (not shown) situated in a by-pass passage leading from the inlet conduit 6 to the chamber control 13 at the back of piston 11 is opened temporarily to allow inlet fluid to act on the piston and so push the valve forward off of its seat. After the valve has been opened, fluid can flow from the inlet 6, through openings 9c in the tube, and through the tube to the downstream conduit 8. Fluid can also flow from the tube through a restricted aperture 39 into the chamber 13 and so maintain inlet pressure in that chamber to keep the valve open. Should a predetermined high or loss pressure develop in the fluid passing through the valve, one of two relief valves 47, 48 will open and chamber 13 will be vented, and the inlet fluid acting on the valve will close it to shut off flow along the conduits 6, 8. The valve is loaded to the open position by a spring 56. Tube 9a is packed where it passes through the end of sleeve 7 by a sealing ring 24 with backing rings 25. The piston is packed in a similar manner.

Title: Storing vessel with locking member
Inventor: MCSHERRY THOMAS
IPC: B65D77/10
Filed: 1984-08-14
Abstract: A container provided with means for sealing and opening the interior thereof with positive locking action in either position, comprises a self-enclosed resilient side wall (16) defining an inner region (14) and having an undeformed stable configuration. The side wall (16) has a first end and a second end with an opening (18,20) at each end. An end wall (22, 44) is secured to the side wall member (16) adjacent the second end so as to sealingly secure the second end opening. The container also comprises closure means (12) integrally and movably secured to the side wall (16) adjacent the first end opening. The closure means (12) is configured and dimensioned so as to be bi-directionally selectively movable from a generally locked first position, wherein the closure means (12) positively seals the first end opening (18), through an intermediate position to a generally locked second position wherein the closure means (12) positively unseals the first end opening (18). In cooperation, the side wall (16) resiliently deforms as the closure means (12) moves between the first and second position through the intermediate position and thereby generates forces tending to return the said wall to its undeformed stable configuration. In this fashion, the return forces generated by the deformation of the side wall (16) aid further movement of the closure means (12) from the intermediate position to either the first or the second position. A frangible closure strip (58) which renders the container tamper proof is also provided. A method for forming the container of the present invention is also disclosed.
