Title: Improvements in Appliances for Smokeless Combustion.
Inventor: RECK ANDERS BORCH
Filed: 1909-11-24
Granted: 1910-07-21
Abstract: 27,362. Reck, A. B. Nov. 24. Grates; air, supplying for combustion. - At the rear or at each side of a grate for a furnace or stove is arranged an inclined sliding plate, and means are provided for regulating the air supply through the grate and over the top of the inclined plate. As shown in Fig. 3, the grate e is an ordinary or movable one, and the inclined plate f is formed with lugs g sliding on a support l. The plate f is moved backwards or forwards by two arms t fixed to a shaft h, which is rocked by an arm k connected by a forked link i with an arm at right-angles to a shaft n. A partition r divides the ash-pit into two parts; and air supplied to the grate e is regulated by a valve x in the ash-pit door, while the air supplied above the inclined plate is regulated by a valve arranged at the front of a passage o in which the shaft n is arranged. Projections q are provided to prevent ashes from passing over the top of the plate f, and a door s is arranged in the partition r to allow any ashes to be removed from the compartment under the plate f. In operation, fresh fuel is placed on the inclined plate and behind the burning fuel left from a previous charge, and air is then supplied to the rear part of the ash-pit so that the fresh fuel is subjected to a gradual gasification. In the modification shown in Fig. 6, inclined plates f are fitted on each side of the grate and are rocked directly by a shaft h. In the form shown in Fig. 9 the ash-pit partition is dispensed with and the plate f in its rear position fits against the back wall of the fire-place so that air is prevented from passing over the top of the plate. In a further modification in which the ash-pit partitions are dispensed with, the inclined plates may be arranged to fit against the side walls. The upper surfaces of the plate f may be formed of firebrick, Fig. 9, or they may be provided with projections between which ashes may collect, as shown in Figs. 3 and 6. In all the forms described, the grate e, or a part of it, may be connected to the movable plate.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Excavating Machines.
Inventor: SPRECHER ANTON VON
IPC: E02F5/02
Filed: 1910-05-26
Granted: 1911-06-26
Abstract: 12,842. Sprecher, A. von. May 26. Picking apparatus, - An excavating - machine comprises picks pivoted at the circumference of rotating wheels, and a conveyer for removing the detached material. In the form shown, two toothed wheels 10 each carry two picks 9, and are driven by toothed wheels 11 having each a striking- arm 12 for accelerating the movement of the picks. Between the wheels 10 is a bucket chain 30 delivering to a hopper 31. The wheels 11 are driven through a spring coupling, Fig. 1<a>, comprising lateral unsymmetrical projections secured to the wheel 11, and bent springs 36 fixed at one end and sliding at the other, secured to a shaft 6 driven by a motor. Should the picks meet too great a resistance, the spring slide up the steeper surfaces ; should the picks meet with too little resistance, the springs slide up the less steep surfaces. To traverse the machine, a cam 19, Fig. 6, on a rotating shaft 5 actuates either one of two pawls 17, driving, through bevel and chain gearing, the wheel axles 22 of one of the two bogies carrying the machine. The machine is moved transversely on its supporting-bogies by two screws 23 passing through nuts on the frame and engaging the pivot pins of the bogies. The jib 2, carrying the excavating and conveying mechanism, is raised and lowered above the shaft 5 by two pinions 25 operated by a handle 57, and gearing with teeth on arcs 24 fixed to the frame. The striking-arms 12 may be dispensed with. When excavating under water, a suction pipe may be substituted for the bucket chain.

Granted: 1911-07-05
Abstract: 16,053. Hallensleben, O., [Firm of]. July 5, 1909, [Convention date]. Picking-motions. - The two picking-sticks p are operated by rods o pivoted to disks m, which are loosely mounted on the shafts a, a<1>. The disks are each provided with a projection l<1> adapted to be engaged by a pawl l carried by a disk h also mounted loosely on the shaft a or a<1> and provided with a cam h<2> arranged to tension the picking- spring i. Each of the disks h has a projection h<1>, and is turned, to tension the picking-spring i, by means of a projection c<1>, which engages the projection h<1> and is carried by a gear-wheel c rotated by means of a toothed sector f. When the spring i is fully tensioned, a catch k enters a recess in the disk h and locks it against rotation. To perform the picking operation, the catch k is withdrawn, thereby releasing the spring i, which, during its contraction, turns the disk h. During this movement, the disk m is turned by the catch l. The momentum of the disk m causes it to continue rotating after the disk h has stopped, and the disk m is brought to rest by a catch n after it has made a complete revolution and has returned the picking-stick to its original position. The catch n is released just before the catch k. When the loom has a pick- and-pick motion, the sector f and gear wheels c are replaced by mechanism which drives the systems of disks independently of each other.
