Title: Improvements in or relating to Valve Stoppers for Preventing Refilling of Bottles.
Inventor: DECHAUME MAURICE
IPC: B65D49/02
Filed: 1910-01-26
Granted: 1910-03-17
Abstract: 2028. Dechaume, M. Jan. 27, 1909, [Convention date]. Bottles, non-refillable.-A float valve 24 is assisted in its movements by the impact of balls 18, 30 on rods 15, 22 respectively. The upper ball 18 is carried in a baffle-case as shown, and bears on a rod 15 free to move in guides 17. The valve is seated at 20, and is guided by contact with the sides 8 of the casing, and by a rod 22 passing freely through an orifice 21. The lower ball 30 is carried in a tube 27, and impinges against the rod 22 and a spring 29 when the bottle is tilted to start the valve off its seat.

Granted: 1911-03-14
Abstract: 6399. Palmer, C. March 14. Autographic cash registers; keys for special transactions. - Autographic strip feed mechanism of the kind described in Specification 18,359/09 is now adapted to machines of the kind described in Specifications 9400/97 and 12,981/03. The sliding rocking bar 73 is slotted to work on a pin 75, and is operated by a link from the main rock-shaft 23. A pin 76 on the end of the slide can engage a stirrup 70 on a slide 67 which is linked to an arm 64 carrying the feed - pawl for the autographic strip. In the position shown, the slide 73 rests on a cam 78 loose on a shaft 51 so as to bring the pin 76 into action on every operation of the machine. An arm 79 secured to the cam is pivoted to a bar 81, so as to be held in the position shown or in inactive position by notches 82, 83 engaging a pin 84. When the notch 82 engages the pin 84, the slide 73 falls and rests on a pin 86 on an arm 87 fast on the shaft 51, so that the pin 76 is only raised thereby to engage and operate the strip feed for special transactions. The shaft 51 is rocked by a link from the special transaction key detent plate as described in Specification 12,981/03 referred to above.

Abstract: 15,648. Scott, R. W. June 29. Circular machines.- The machine described in Specification 11,481/06 is applied to the production of plain stockings, spliced in the feet and having turned welts. A setting - up course S is first fed to the rib needles, and to alternate cylinder needles, and, to prevent running- down, a second course may be fed to all or a few rib needles. The rib needles holding the setting-up course are then put out of action, and the whole of the cylinder needles are put into action until a welt of the required depth is made, the rib needles are then projected so as to transfer their loops to the cylinder needles, and are taken back out of action while the knitting of the leg continues. When more than one full setting-up course of loops is fed to the rib needles, some or all of these are provided with fingers 10 on the jacks engaged by a supplementary cam 9. A corresponding number of the cylinder needles may be provided with short butts, so that the lifting- cam starts on the first long butt and delays the lift of the needles corresponding to the fingered rib needles. The manufacture of a complete stocking is described, and the process is applicable to the manufacture of shirt sleeves, drawer legs &c.

Title: Improvements in a Central Energy Electrical Signalling System.
Inventor: GOLDSTEIN ALBERT
IPC: G08B25/00
Filed: 1910-07-08
Granted: 1911-02-02
Abstract: 16,330. Goldstein, A., and Pool, C. July 8. Fire, police, and like alarm systems.-In systems of the kind in which a number of transmitting-stations as M, M<1> are arranged in series in a closed circuit with indicating-devices D at a central station, switching - means are provided for arranging for a signalling circuit being completed during a fault in the line, and for the recompletion of the normal circuit after the fault has been repaired. The normal circuit is from the generator A through the magnets D, D<1>, one winding of the neutral relay F, over the contacts of the transmitters T, T', the second winding of the relay F, contact 9, lead 24, contact 1, and magnet B. In the inoperative positions of the transmitters, as shown, the contact n falls into a recess in the wheel o, and breaks the connexion to ground at G'. When a transmitter is operated, the wheel M breaks contact at m, m<1> to send the signalling impulses. The resistances 17, 18 in the leads of the second transmitter T<1> ensure the impulses from its operation being weaker than those from the transmitter T. The stronger impulses operate the four magnets D, D', E, E<1> while the weaker ones operate the magnets D', E' only. These magnets close the circuits of indicating-lamps O, P, Q, R. When a break occurs in the line at X, the normal circuit is broken, and magnets D, D', B are de-energized. A signalling circuit, however, now passes from the generator A, through magnets E, E', relay J, lead 27, contact 2, lead 24, contact 9, relay F, to the transmitters. Similarly, when a break occurs in the line Y, a signalling circuit passes from the generator, through the magnets D, D<1> to the transmitters. When a ground occurs in the line X, the magnet F is energized, and the signalling circuit passes through the magnets E, E<1>, contacts 10, 8, relay F, to the transmitters. When a ground occurs in the line Y, the signalling circuit passes through the magnets D, D'. When the break has been repaired, and the magnet F is de-energized, there is a path for the current, through the magnets D, D', the transmitters, the relay F, the contact 9, lead 24, contact 2, lead 27, relay J, contact 11, lead 28, and contact 3. The armature j of relay J now closes the contact 12, and brings the magnet B into circuit. The contacts 2, 3 are now broken, and contact 1 is made, thus re-establishing the normal circuit.

Fig. 4 shows a modification in which the dough portions 16 pass on to a drum 42, which carries them beneath an adjustable sheeting-roller 43, a curling - plate 46, and a spring - sustained plate 49. Several sets of sheeting and curling apparatus may be employed in sequence, and the final curling-members may be fitted with side plates to limit the length of the rolls. The sheeting may be effected by passing the dough between rolls, or beneath a roller or a series of rollers arranged above a travelling band.
