Title: Improvements in or relating to machines for wrapping caramels, blocks of confectionery, or the like
IPC: B65B11/28
Filed: 1927-01-13
Abstract: 288,717. Rose, A. G., and Rose Bros. (Gainsborough), Ltd. Jan. 13, 1927. Packeting by wrapping-up. - Caramels, blocks of confectionery, &c. are wrapped up by first folding the wrapper around three sides of or partially around the article leaving projecting wrapper portions at the fourth or open side and at the ends of the article, secondly, tucking in the projecting portions at one end of the article, then folding down wrapper portions on to the fourth or open side so as to hold the end tucks in place, and completing the wrapping by twisting the wrapper portion at the other end of the article. A machine for effecting this comprises an intermittently rotated mould wheel 1 having several eyually spaced mould boxes provided with side members 6, 7 between which a ram 3 forces an article 4 and its wrapper 5 thereby folding the wrapper about three sides of the article. The wheel then turns to its next position where the folding of the inner end of the package is effected, first by a folder 9, on a cam operated lever 10, which turns down the flap 13, Fig. 8, on to the article, then by a folder 15, pivoted on a stud 17 and actuated through toothed racks 18, 19 by a cam operated lever 24, the folder 15 turning down the end flap 31, and finally the flap 33 is turned down by a stationary folder 32 as the mould wheel commences its next movement. On completion of this movement, the upstanding parts of the wrapper are folded down on to the uncovered side of the article. A folder 34 on a rocking lever 35 folds down the end portions 48, 49, Fig. 14 to be followed by a folder 50, on a rocking arm 54, which turns down the side portion 64 adjacent the side member 7 of the mould box. As the mould wheel makes its next movement, a stationary folder 65 folds down the remaining flap 67 and at its next position of rest grippers 68 of known construction twist the outstanding portions of the wrapper to form the complete package, Fig. 20. On the next stoppage of the wheel, the package is ejected from the mould box by an ejector 70.

Filed: 1943-01-27
Abstract: 564,483. Filters. ROWLANDSON, E. S. Jan. 27, 1943, No. 1342. [Class 46] A method of filtering liquids consists in alternately allowing the liquid to percolate through reticulate material in one direction under a pressure head and then allowing part of the liquid behind the material to flow back by gravity in the reverse direction to draw air through the material. The filter shown comprises two cylindrical containers 14 each composed of a skeleton cage supporting a wire mesh body 17 on its side walls and curved surface. The interiors of the containers communicate with the arms 5 of a T-piece, the centre limb of which is journalled in a bearing 7 and passes through a gland 6 on a supply pipe 2. The latter is connected to a tank 1 holding unfiltered liquid and is fitted with an adjustable cock 3. Several pairs of filters similarly mounted may be arranged in line above a collecting tank, each pair being fitted with a sprocket 9. A chain engages the sprockets and passes around a sprocket on the shaft of a handle 11 which thereby serves to rotate the containers simultaneously. In use, liquid filters through the lowermost containers of each pair, and when the containers become full the handle is actuated to bring them into the uppermost position. The contained liquid then passes by gravity through the pipes 5 to the opposite containers.

Abstract: 582,145. Circular slide-rules. WITTGENSTEIN, G., F. Jan. 31, 1944, No. 1777. [A Specification was laid open to inspection under Sect., 91 of the Acts, Dec. 18, 1944.] [Class 106 (i)] A circular slide-rule comprises a fixed and a rotatable member, threes or more logarithmic scales arranged on said members and a slidable index which can move with tho rotatable member, but which at times is stopped in a fixed position to enable the result of any calculation to be read opposite a fixed index. In the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2, a disc f has inscribed thereon two logarithmic scales q graduated in opposite directions of rotation, a ring b which can rotate round the disc f is also provided with a logarithmic scale. A slider g, Fig. 2, is fitted in a groove d of the ring b and moves with the ring b until its finger h causes the lever l to abut against a stop m or m<1>, according to the direction of rotation, whereupon the index k which is attached to the slider g is stopped along the same radial line as a fixed index p (see Fig. 1). The operation is as follows: the ring b is rotated so as to bring the index k into the main reading plane (i.e. in line with fixed index p) where it stops automatically, as shown above. This rotation of ring b is then continued until the first factor of the calculation read on scale b is brought under the fixed index p. The ring b is then rotated in the opposite direction so as to bring the sliding index k opposite the second factor of the calculation read on the outer scale q if it is a multiplicand or on the inner scale q if it is a dividend, the result of the calculation is read on the scale of ring b under the fixed index p. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 7, the movable scale is traced on a disc t and the double scale q is traced on the cover s. The shaft T revolves in the axis of the cover and drives the slider g carrying- the index k which is stopped in the same radial position as the fixed index p when the finger h of the slider strikes the washer l and drives it until the broach i abuts against the end of the indenture r.
