Patent GB-191126040-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Presser-lifting and Machine stopping Devices for Sewing Machines.
Inventor: VANNETTE JASPER
IPC: D05B29/00
Filed: 1911-06-28
Granted: 1912-02-15
Abstract: 26,040. Vannette, J., and Yingling, C. J. June 28. Sewing - machines; stopping - gear, non- automatic; presser-bars, lifting.-A device for automatically lifting the presser-bar is moved by hand into operative position just prior to stopping the machine, and the device either is associated with a second device which causes the machine to stop in a position with the needle out of the work and the take-up arm in its highest position, or is itself constructed to perform this function. In the construction shown, a pin 13 on the presser - bar passes through a slot 17 in a plate 14 slidingly mounted on the outside of the machine head and carrying the pivot pin 19 of a plate 20. Normally, the plate 20 is pressed outwards by a spring-pressed plunger 25, but, prior to the final stopping of the machine, it is pressed inwards manually and a cam 21 on an auxiliary needle-driving shaft 22 engages the plate and thereby raises the presser. The edge of the plate 20 is formed with a notch 27 which obstructs the passage of the cam and causes the machine to stop. The edges of the plate and the cam are bevelled as shown in Fig. 8 so that when the cam engages with the plate it holds the latter from moving outwards. When the machine is started again, the cam releases the plate which then remains inoperative until moved again by hand. The plate 14 engages at 32 with a lever which separates the threadtension disks when the presser is raised. Needles, driving. - An auxiliary shaft 22, mounted eccentrically to the main shaft 3, carries a needle-bar actuating-crank 23, and is rotated with varying velocity by the engagement of the crank-pin with a radial slot 4<1> in a disk 4 secured to the main shaft.

In the form shown in Fig. 1, the header a is made in one piece, with inspection openings in its upper surface, and the partitions b, which are arranged as shown, are attached to the header by welding, riveting, &c. In another form, the partitions are made in one with an enclosed casting held in place by the cover of the header. In a further modification, the partitions and header are cast in one piece. In each case the steam passes through the' several sets of Field-tubes in series.

Patent GB-191205065-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in and connected with Bottle Washing Machines.
Inventor: HOBSON FRED
IPC: B08B9/36
Filed: 1912-02-29
Granted: 1912-12-19
Abstract: 5065. Hobson, F., and Fletcher, J. Feb. 29. Bottles, washing.-Bottle-washing machines, of the kind in which the bottles, mounted in pivoted holders radiating from a soaking-wheel, are carried through a tank fitted with external brushes and at one point during the revolution are entered by internal brushes, are fitted with internal brushes which are mounted outside the tank and inserted into and withdrawn from each bottle in turn without arresting the rotary movement of the wheel; also the tank is fitted with oscillating brushes for cleaning the exterior of the bottles. Fig. 1 shows one construction of machine in which the bottles are inserted singly in holders pivoted on each end of the shafts e so that their necks point towards the axis of the wheel. They are retained in this position while passing the oscillating brushes i by means of cams on the shafts e engaging a fixed ring h. The external brushes are oscillated by means of a crank and connecting-rod m from the main driving-shaft, and rotate the bottles in the holders while in engagement therewith. After passing through the tank, the bottle-holders are rotated by means of a stop 5 until their mouths are in line with rotary internal brushes, which are spring- mounted on a pivoted frame o and are normally held by the spring 8 with their stems in a direction tangential to the adjacent portion of the ring h. The continued movement of the wheel then turns the brush frame about its pivot and first pushes the bottles on to the brushes and afterwards withdraws them again. When the bottles have been released from the brushes, the frame is restored to its original position to receive the next pair of bottles while the released bottles are turned again so that their necks point inwards by a second stop 5 and are then carried over rinsing nozzles 3. At the common delivery and feed point, two additional stops 5 are fitted, by means of which the bottles are presented neck outwards for delivery and the empty holders are then reversed to receive the new bottles. In the modified apparatus shown in Fig. 3, the ring h is fitted in the tank and in proximity to the rinsing-nozzles, but during the remaining portion of the revolution, the bottles hang freely with their mouths downwards. The ring h ends before the brushing station is reached, and the bottle-holders are received by side members h<1> which permit them to fall by gravity into the position in which the bottles are in line with the brush spindles. The pivoted frame carrying the internal brushes is supported by pivoted rods 11, which are weighted at their lower ends. The frame is oscillated about its pivot to raise and depress the brushes by mechanism actuated by the cam 22, and at the same time is moved to and from the wheel to advance and withdraw the brushes by mechanism actuated by a second cam 17.

Abstract: 14,781. Junghans, A. March 6, 1912, [Convention date]. Projectile fuses.-Relates to mechanical time and percussion fuses provided with separate ignition means for shrapnel and common shell firing, and consists in the provision of a common releasable locking-means for both ignition pins, and of an adjustable control-member which, when the locking - means is released, permits of the firing of one of the means only. The shrapnel firing-pin i, Fig. 1a, and common shell firing- pin n, Fig. 1, are both locked by the lever h, the latter through the intermediary of a centrifugal slide l and pin k; but the setting of the lever q, Fig. 3, by the ring o, prevents the operation of one of the pins k, i when released by the lever h. The lever h is released by the lever g, either on the entry of the nose f<1>, Fig. 1, into a slot in the timing-disk after a predetermined time, or else, on impact, by the axial movement of the lever g along its pivot. Safety locking-means comprise centrifugal weights k<1>, i<1> for the pins k, i, and a centrifugal weight for the lever g, the weight @ being released only after the cam s has been rotated out of engagement with it by the mechanism.

Abstract: 26,201. Fearn, J. W. Nov. 15. Stapling, hand-tools for.-In a stapling tool or appliance of the type employing a continuous strip of formed staples, and applicable for fastening papers, attaching labels to boxes, &c., the staple strip is introduced into the magazine at the delivery or cutter end, and is automatically fed by a spring contained in the magazine. The frame of the appliance consists of a base b, a head c in which is mounted the spring- controlled cutting and driving plunger d, and a handle portion e. The base b is formed with a longitudinal recess f<1>, Fig. 3, which, with the bar f<2> fitted therein, constitutes the staple magazine, the staple strip i, Fig. 2, resting on the part f<3> of the bar j<2> with the legs of the staples depending in the lateral recesses f'. The staple strip is urged towards the cutters g<1>, g<2> by the spring j, which is connected at its rear end to a pin or stop j<3>, and carries at its forward end a feed-plunger j<4>; the head j<5> of this plunger is accominodated by the grooves j<1>, j<2> in the frame b and bar f<2> respectively, and bears against the rear end of the staple strip. The bar f<2> may be of hardened steel, and adapted at its forward end to form a shearing-cutter coacting with the cutter g<1>; but, preferably, it is provided with a detachable cutter g<2>. The forward staple, after being severed from the strip by the depression of the plunger d, is forced by the plunger through the guiding-throat m<1> into the work. For fastening papers &c., the appliance is provided with a bed-plate n having clinching recesses n<2>. The frame b at its rear end is detachably pivoted to the bed-plate, for example by spring-pressed ball pivots q<2>, so that the appliance can be used without the bed-plate for stapling boxes &c. The forward end of the magazine is normally closed by a stop k mounted, under control of a spring k<1>, in the head c. By means of the finger-piece k<3>, the stop can be raised clear of the entrance of the magazine, to enable this to be recharged. In a modification, the feed-plunger j<4> has a knob or finger-piece projecting laterally through a longitudinal slot in the base b. By pulling the knob &c. backwards and then turning it into a lateral notch or recess at the rear end, the feed-plunger can be latched in its retracted position during the charging of the magazine.
