Abstract: 156,631. Adams & Westlake Co., (Assignees of Hamm, W. S., and Schuetz, F. A.). March 4, 1919, [Convention date]. Wick burners, solid flame.-A round wick burner for use in hand-lanterns consists cf a body section 12 of ordinary form provided with a wick tube 15 formed of two piecesof sheet metal seamed together, the lower parts of the plates being bowed to form a circular wick passage and the upper parts flared outwardly to a fan shape. Diametrally opposite portions 19 of the upper parts are bowed for a distance above the base of the fan to form a wick guide. The side walls of the upper parts are offset outwardly thereby forming channels 21 at the ends of the fan, and the offset portions 20 are provided with V-shaped notches 22. A shield plate 23 formed with an aperture having upstanding inwardly inclined lips 24 along its longer edges is supported above but preferably out of actual contact with the wick tube by means of legs 26 which depend from downturned outwardly flaring flanges 25 on the plate and are secured to the burner bodv 12. The wick 18 is adjusted by means of a starwheel carried by a spindle 14 and projecting through a slot in the wick tube. The upper end of the wick when burning is level with or slightly above the apexes of the notches 22. The air enters under the flanges 25 and through the notches 22, and the flame is flattened by the lips 24.

Patent GB-572770-A (GB)
Title: Abrasive articles and methods of making the same
IPC: B24D3/14
Filed: 1943-01-15
Abstract: An abrasive article, particularly a grinding-wheel, having the abrasive grains in a vitrified bond, has the bond formed of a mixture of two borosilicate glasses of different fusing-points, the glass of lower fusing-point having a silica content of 45-68 per cent, while that of the higher fusing-point has a silica content of 70-96 per cent, the difference in silica content in the two glasses being at least 5 per cent; the abrasive grains and comminuted glasses are mixed, shaped and fired at a temperature high enough to melt the low-fusing glass, while the high-fusing glass is not fully melted and acts to increase the viscosity of the bond mixture so as to prevent shrinking during cooling.  The abrasive is preferably diamond and firing is therefore effected at 850-1000 DEG  C. in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, and glasses are used which have been preformed.  The low-fusing glass may dissolve some or all of the high-fusing glass; in the former case, the high-fusing glass serves as a supporting structure.  The two glasses preferably have different coefficients of expansion so that bonds can be prepared having coefficients corresponding to those of the abrasives, e.g. below 40 x 10-7.  The glasses, in addition to silica contain 3.5-29.5 per cent and 20-40 per cent respectively of boric oxide and the balance mainly of the oxides of the alkalies and alkaline earths.  The bond may comprise 10-90 per cent by weight or 2-80 per cent by volume of the high silica glass, together with small amounts of a plastic clay to render the mass mouldable, a vitreous silica powder to act as a low-shrinking material, aluminium or silicon powder or a reduced boron compound of the kind described in U.S.A. Specification 2,132,005 to absorb any oxidizing gases present or evolved, and a temporary binder such as an aqueous solution of methyl ether of cellulose.  The abrasive consists of 2-60 per cent by volume of the bond.  Preferably, the wheel, which may be of disc, cup or flaring-cup type is prepared with an abrasive-containing grinding-portion and a core or hub section containing no abrasive, the glasses of the two sections fusing together at the junction to form a two-zone wheel having an abrasive portion integral with a central supporting core.  The comminuted glasses and the other materials in powdered form are mixed and wetted with the temporary binder and the two masses for the core and rim are placed in a two-zone mould and pressed and shaped under a pressure of 2-20, and preferably over 10, tons per square inch.  The article is then dried and fired below 1000 DEG  C. for 3-5 hours to cause the bond to fuse into adhesive contact with the abrasive and the bonds of the two zones to commingle.  With diamond grains as abrasive, firing is carried out in an atmosphere of nitrogen, carbon monoxide, or other non-oxidizing gas.  Specification 552,246 also is referred to.  The limitation of the difference of 5 per cent in the silica content of the two borosilicate glasses does not appear in the Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91.

Apparatus for starting up a reciprocating internal-combustion engine, such as a diesel engine, includes a compressed air source connected through a valve system to the engine, the valve system having a first state wherein air is supplied at a rate sufficient to cause the engine to rotate at its starting speed and a second state wherein air is supplied at a slower rate sufficient only to cause the engine to rotate slowly and includes means for ensuring that the valve system is in its first state when the engine crank-shaft has completed a predetermined rotation from its rest position. As shown the installation comprises a compressed air source 2 connected to the engine 1 through a starting air pipe 3 including a main starting air valve 4, means controlled by a manually operated starting member 12 for opening the valve 4, a by-pass 8 for the main starting air valve 4 and a by-pass valve 9 in the by-pass pipe. The apparatus includes a timing device which is set when the engine stops and which during its period keeps the valve system in its first state and a counting device which receives a pulse for each engine crank-shaft revolution. The counting device may be adapted to change the valve system to its first state only in response to the reception of two pulses. Instead of the electrical control means described it is possible to use hydraulic or pneumatic components or if desired, a combination of such components with electrical components.

Filed: 1995-01-05
Abstract: PURPOSE: To obtain a DC/DC converter outputting a plurality of signals for generating more than one type of DC output voltage by stopping the charging of an inductor when the output voltage from a voltage regulator exceeds a predetermined level otherwise charging a capacitor according to a switching signal. CONSTITUTION: When the difference VB-VA of a voltage component VB and a switching signal VA is larger than 2VBE (threshold voltage of transistors Q3, Q4), two transistors Q3, Q4 are turned on otherwise they are turned off. Consequently, if VB-VA is higher than 2VBE and two transistors Q3, Q4 connected through Darlington connection are turned on, on/off operation of a transistor Q2 is controlled by an inverted switching signal VA. When the Q2 is turned on, a power supply signal VCC is delivered to an inductor L which turns a diode D instantaneously and a capacitor C is charged with a voltage including a supply voltage from the inductor L and the power supply signal VCC.
