Granted: 1909-02-25
Abstract: 1691. Edmonds, H. Jan. 23. Pins, dress and like. - In a support or spreader for ladies' l a c e collars, neck bands, &c., the fastening - pins are permanently attached to the body of the support, but are arranged to slide thereon, so that they can be engaged with the material of the collar &c., shields being also provided on the support to receive the points of the pins. As shown in Fig. 2, the pins c<1>, c<2> at each end of the support are formed on the stem c<3>, which can slide but cannot rotate in the guide or keeper b fixed to the body a<1>, b<1> of the support. The parts a<1>, b<1> are provided with shields d', d<2> for the pin points. In use, the material of the collar &c. is drawn over the shields, and the pin slides are then forced in, so that the pins pass through the material and engage in the shields. Fig. 8 shows a modified form of the pin-slide and its guide. In another modification, the pin shields are formed by coiling the ends of the wire forming the support. In other modifications, only a single pin is provided at each end. In the form shown in Fig. 12, which is made entirely of wire, the shield band the guide c for the pin-slide are formed by coiling the body wire a. In the form shown in Fig. 13, the pin-slide consists of a loop or frame e provided with a single pin.

Web feeding and guiding arrangements; paper-supports; line-spacing mechanism.-Relates to arrangements wherein the web is fed intermittently for line-spacing by means of a swinging presser-bar arranged between the platen and a feeddevice co - operating with a feed-roller. (1) The web 28 is led from a storage - roller 29 over guide-rollers 24, 26 and a platen 13 to a feed-roller 11. The roller 11 is ball-mounted on a rod 9 and the rollers 24, 26 are ball - mounted on rods 22, 25 which are secured between cheeks 20 on sidearms 14. (2) The platen 13 consists of a bar secured to the side-arms 14, which are pivoted on the rod 9 and are formed with extensions engaging beneath an abutment 15 and provided with spring catches which engage lugs 15<a>. (3) The presser-bar 46 works in slots 21 in the cheeks 20 and is secured to bell-crank levers 44, these being secured to a rod 42 which is journaled in the arms 14 and is connected by a crank 48 to a tension spring 47. The levers 44 are connected by links 49 to a frame 30 which is pivoted on the rod 9 and is pinned to links 31, which are suspended by links 33 and are connected by a universal bar 32, engaging the type-levers 5. The roller 11 is engaged by a feed-device and a retaining-device, the feed-device consisting of spring-metal plates 36 which are secured in inclined position to a cross-bar 35 on the frame 30 and are each engaged by a spring. The retaining - device consists of a plate 40 which is pivoted on a fixed bracket 38 and is held in engagement by a weighted arm 41. When the key-lever 2 of any of the type-levers 5 is depressed, the bar 32 swings the frame 30 and raises the presser-bar 46, the slack let off by this bar being taken up by the feed action of the plates 36. When the key-lever is released, the frame 30 and the presser-bar are returned by the spring 47, the retaining-plate 40 holding the web at one end and the presser-bar acting to feed the web forward for line-spacing.

Abstract: 248. Eiane, H. O. Jan. 4. Aerial machines without aerostats; planes, arrangement of; propelling. -An aeroplane is provided with an automatic stabilizing-apparatus which comes into action when the machine glides transversely. The main plane 6 is adjustable about a transverse axis 15 in order to check the speed of the machine. Two motors with two propellers may be used. Steering and balancing.-When the machine glides transversely, say in the direction indicated by the arrow a, Fig. 2, a vertical hinged plane 3 is turned about an axis 5. By virtue of cords 7 passing over pulleys 8, 9 to the lower part of the rocking lever 10 of a stabilizing- plane 12<a>, the movement of the plane 3 causes the plane 12<a> to be lowered about its axis 11. The plane 12<a> is connected by a cord 13 with the upper part of the rocking lever 10 of the opposite plane 12<b>, which is thus raised about its pivot 11. The movement of the plane 12<b> in turn causes the vertical plane 2 to move similarly to the plane 3. The reverse of these movements takes place, if the plane 2 is moved in a direction opposite to that indicated by the arrow a.

Abstract: 7242. Chambers, F. J. March 25. Drawings to Specification. Wireless telegraphy.-Signals are transmitted from horizontal aerials hv means of waves having a frequency within the audible range, the signals being received directly by a telephone or siphon recorder. The aerials are laid horizontally in or a short distance above the earth, one at least being insulated therefrom. The aerial may comprise one horizontal conductor insulated from the earth, and a second conductor, insulated or not, may be arranged beneath the other or as a prolongation of the first, but pointing in the opposite direction. The aerial may receive energy from a highfrequency alternator, or from a Duddell circuit, being tuned to the frequency of the received current or to a harmonic, by means of condensers and inductances arranged between different parts of the aerial or between the aerial and earth. When the energy is supplied to the aerial by shock-excitation, dots ' and ' dashes ' may be transmitted by the two-tone method. The receiving-instruments may be tuned mechanically to the wave frequency. Directive working may be obtained bv the Bellini-and-Tosi method, or by arranging a number of aerials pointing in different directions. Multiplex signalling may be effected by supplying the aerials with polyphase current, each phase being controlled and detected independently.
