Granted: 1913-10-10
Abstract: 23,124. Jamieson & Co., A., and Hastings, H. J. Oct. 10. Lace.-Relates to the production of twist lace curtain fabric with a double Swiss shading effect arranged in staggered lines as shown. The machine is provided with four guide-bars, carrying thick spool threads a, fine spool threads b, c, and warp threads d.

Abstract: 19,679. Soc. Anon. des Etablissements Delaunay-Belleville. Nov. 14, 1912, [Convention date]. Clutches and speed - varying mechanism.-The apparatus for varying the speed-ratio and power transmitted in an hydraulic transmission mechanism is controlled by a motor device instead of by direct manual control. The apparatus is shown applied to a gear of the "Janney" type. The constantspeed shaft A is connected to an auxiliary shaft carrying a roller D by chain or belt gearing. The roller D can bear on either of the flanges of a drum M slidably mounted on the shaft V operating the swash-plate of the transmission gear. The drum M carries a screw N working in a non-rotatable nut C carried by the pivoted hand-lever L. A movement of the hand-lever brings the roller D into contact with one or other of the flanges of the drum M and rotates the shaft V. The movement of the drum M and the screw N causes the drum to leave the roller, thereby maintaining the setting of the swashplate until the handle is again moved.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the Reversing and Braking of Alternating Current Motors.
IPC: H02P23/00

Granted: 1915-02-15
Abstract: 28,933. Akt.-Ges. Brown, Boverie, et Cie. Dec. 27,1912, [Convention date]. Alternating-current motors.-In the control of alternating - current motors, the stator-reversing switch 1 is so connected with the lever 5 controlling the brushes or the starting-member that it is moved with the lever for starting and then arrested and locked, and the release of the switch 1 can be effected only when the lever 5 is in its middle position, after which it can be operated again by moving the lever 5. With the reversing- switch 1 locked, the lever can be moved in either direction from its middle or zero position for controlling and braking. The reversing-switch 1 is released by allowing the pawl 8 to enter a recess 17 and so depress the end of a lever 10. A lever 15 is thus raised, thereby releasing a cam-lever 7 and allowing springs 2, 3 to return the reversing-switch 1 to its mid-position. The lever 5 operates the switch 1 to close it by means of a cam 18 and rollers 19, 20 on a plate 4 secured to the cam-lever 7. Means, such as an electro-magnet 26 and an armature 27 on the end of the lever 10, may be provided to prevent the release of the switch 1, by the pawl 8, except when the mechanical brake is applied by the handle 28 or the machine has come to rest.

The slides are mounted in a barrel 23 and are drawn flush with the surface when the key is inserted. Master - key mechanism. - The barrel 23 is mounted in a cylinder 29 adapted to revolve in a fixed casing 26, but normally held against movement by master - key mechanism. This mechanism comprises a second series of slides 42 similar to those described above, which are carried by the cylinder 29 and are adapted to engage a notch 44 in the casing 26. The masterkey 49, Fig. 7, is adapted to pass through the ordinary mechanism, and has its end constructed to set the slides 42. The bolt 34 is withdrawn by means of the follower 38 on the barrel 23 either by the ordinary key, which releases the barrel 23 from the then fixed cylinder 29, or by the master-key which releases the cylinder 29 from the fixed casing 26 and turns the whole mechanism including the barrel 23.

Filed: 1914-03-02
Granted: 1914-12-03
Abstract: 5306. Carey, R. F. March 2. Revolving-cylinder pumps.-In pumps having revolving cylinders of any type, the pistons have their working ends of spherical or roller shape. The radial revolving cylinders 2, Fig. 1, are provided with ball pistons 3 with a rigidly attached connecting-rod 4 and gudgeon 5. The gudgeons are journaled in a ring 6 running on fixed eccentric tracks 8, and the rings 10 are carried round by the n. Variable delivery is obtained by band adjustment of the central valve 1. In a modification, variable delivery is obtained by adjusting the position of the eccentric track relatively to the valve. In the form shown in Fig. 5, the positions of the pistons 3 and cylinders 2 are reversed. Admission and delivery of liquid are obtained by passages through the pistons. Fig. 7 shows the application of the invention to the axially-disposed cylinder and swash-plate type of machine, the variable delivery being obtained by adjustment of the valve 1. In a modification, the delivery is varied by altering the inclination of the swashplate. The ring 10 is employed to drive the swashplate 6 by contact with the piston-rod 4. Roller pistons 3, Fig. 10, may be used in cylinders of rectangular section, and any other means may be used to drive the rings 6 at the same speed as the cylinders. The invention is applicable to machines working with liquid or gaseous fluid.

Granted: 1915-05-13
Abstract: 16,330. Blanchard [nÚe Dubois], J. M. July 12, 1913, [Convention date]. [Addition to 22,543/13.] Dials.-Relates to 24-hour dials of the type described in the parent Specification, and consists in a modification of the mechanism whereby the figure-bearing disk is moved every twelve hours. The figure-disk G is shifted by the action of levers D, C alternately upon pins E projecting from the disk G through slots in the fixed plate A. Each pin E carries a pulley H, the pulleys being joined by flexible connexions M' to weighted detents L which co-operate with another pin I projecting from the disk G. When one of the levers C or D becomes freed from the periphery of a rotating cam B, it bears upon a pin F carried by the adjacent pulley H, causing the pulley to turn on its pivot, and, by means of the flexible connexion M<1>, to withdraw the respective detent L from the path of the pin I. The lever C or D, descending further, then moves the figure-disk G by bearing on the pin E, the disk being automatically held for the next period in its new position by the other detent L. Instead of having a fixed plate with apertures through which the figures are visible, a glass or like plate, parts of which are rendered opaque by suitable means, may be employed.
