Abstract: 1,227,576. Reciprocating pumps. CATERPILLAR TRACTOR CO. July 17, 1968, No.33996/68. Heading F1A. [Also in Divisions F2 and G3] In an internal combustion engine injection or ignition timing device, adjustment is controlled by oil pressure centrifugally generated in a vortex chamber. An axially fixed rotating cam-shaft 12, Fig. 1, of an injection pump 11, is coupled by a helical spline connection 21 to gear 16 engaging an engine drive gear 17; a cavity 24, disc 26 and flexible diaphragm 27, define a vortex chamber in the gear 16, into which oil 53 may be introduced by way of bore 31 and passages 43 from chamber 48. A rod 28 fixed to 26 extends through bores 31, 32 and a spring 34 acts on flange 36 to force the rod and gear 16 toward cam-shaft 12, and oil continuously admitted to chamber 48 acts against surface 49 to urge the gear 16 away from cam-shaft 12; at constant speed these forces balance. Increasing the engine speed increases the centrifugal force on the oil 53 which exerts a greater pressure against 26 moving rod 28 away from cam-shaft 12, as this occurs a section of rod 28 having reduced diameter acts with control edge 42 of bore 31 to reduce the flow of oil from chamber 48. Thus increasing the oil pressure acting on 49 and moving gear 16 away from shaft 12, and the rotation imparted to 12 causes advancement of the timing. Decrease in engine speed reverses the action. In another embodiment Fig.2, an axially movable cam-shaft extension 61 is coupled by helical spline connections 64, 59 to an axially fixed drive gear 63 and a pump cam-shaft 58, and extends through the drive gear to bear against a spring 74. Fluidpressure generated in the vortex chamber defined in the drive gear 63 acts against a disc 76 which is carried by the shaft 61, thus causing axial movement of 61 and rotation of the cam-shaft 58.

Abstract: 1,228,682. Measuring viscosity. AGENCE NATIONALE DE VALORISATION DE LA RECHERCHE. July 18, 1969 [July 19, 1968; Feb. 26, 1969], No. 36241/69. Heading G1S. [Also in Divisions F1 and G4] An automatic viscosity meter, particularly for polymers, comprises a transparent measurement tube 1 having a section 9 of reduced section, and at least partially transparent jacket 2 surrounding the measurement tube to receive thermal regulating liquid, a reading device comprising radiation sources 11a and 11b, a single radiation detector 12 and means 61 for directing radiation from each source on to the detector, and a timer 13. The lamps 11a and 11b may be visible light, U.V. or I.R. sources and the detector 12 a photo-diode. Means comprising a bi-stable circuit 67 controlled by detector 12 may be provided to black out one or other of the lamps. In use, with lamp 11a lit, air pump 32 is started to lift liquid L in measurement tube 9. As the meniscus passes beam 44, pump 32 is switched off after a delay by a signal from detector 12 via flip-flop 47, relay amplifier 48 and time relay 49. The liquid falls in tube 9 and as the meniscus passes beam 44 lamp 11a is extinguished and lamp 11b lit, and gate 50 is opened to connect generator 51 to counting decade 53 to start the time measurement. When the meniscus passes beam 45, lamp 11b is extinguished and lamp 11a lit, gate 50 is closed to end the time measurement, and pump 32 is actuated after a delay to start another measurement cycle. After a given number of cycles, further liquid may be added to L by automatic burette 26 and a further cycle of measurements commenced. Instead of two lamps 11a and 11b a single lamp with a beam splitting device may be used. Instead of switching lamps 11a and 11b electronically, a shutter arrangement may be used, or the beams from the two lamps may be pulse coded and separated from the output of the detector. The means 61 for directing the beams on to the detector may be a prism, as shown or with an additional triangular prism added to the upper face, two mirrors or optical fibres. A cylinder of compressed gas may be used instead of pump 32.

Abstract: 1,231,384. Cigar-making machines. MOLINS MACHINE CO. Ltd. and D. W. MOLINS. 31 July, 1968 [3 Aug., 1967], No. 35794/67. Heading A2C. In a process of forming a continuous stream of tobacco leaf portions for the manufacture of cigars, in which the leaf portions are deposited on a travelling conveyer and thus tend to lie substantially parallel thereto so that after compressing to a circular cross-section and wrapping the pieces of leaf tend to revert to their original flat condition causing the rod produced to assume an oval cross-section, the distortion of the rod after wrapping is reduced by segregating smaller leaf portions from larger leaf portions and so supplying the smaller leaf portions that they lie at the upper part of the stream and constitute a zone of relatively fluid and easily deformable leaf portions. Smaller and larger leaf portions are pneumatically fed through a passage 6 to sections 1A and 1B respectively of a suction conveyer 1, and the tobacco stream so formed is trimmed on its underside at 7. Preferably rods 10 project a short distance into-the passage.6 from the right as viewed in Fig. 3. This causes the smaller leaf portions to build up on the conveyer 1 in longitudinal ridges between which the later supplied larger leaf: portions arrange themselves in random fashion. In another embodiment, tobacco is showered downwardly to form a stream on a further conveyer, the smaller leaf portions being fed last at the downstream end thereof and the stream then transferred to the underside of a suction conveyer.

Abstract: 1297536 Coating apparatus LOCKWOOD TECHNICAL Inc 5 June 1970 27218/70 Heading B2L Apparatus for applying viscous fluid to workpieces 21 comprises an applicator wheel 50 and a pot assembly 60 having a block 62 with a cylindrical concave face 64 which fits a portion of the wheel surface, an inlet 92 for coating material and an adjustable doctor blade 84 to control the level of coating material on the wheel as it leaves the pot the arrangement being such that rotation of the wheel causes a viscous drag on the coating medium which tends to prevent coating medium from rising out of the mouth 82 of the chamber which it would normally do due to pressure feed to the chamber. The block 62 is spring urged towards the surface of the applicator roller. The coating medium may be fed to block 62 by a pump which fills a reservoir, pressure in the reservoir being maintained by a regulated compressed air supply or by gravity feed of coating material. When the applicator wheel is stopped the supply of coating material is cut off in each case by the use of one or more solenoid valves. The surface of the applicator wheel may have a series of indentations to recieve coating medium, the pressure of the medium at the doctor blade ensuring that these indentations are overfilled to produce a convex meniscus. In a modification (Fig. 6) coating medium is received in a series of chambers 154 in the applicator wheel from a supply passage 150 and carried thereby to a slot 136 in the chamber 132 where it is released, air trapped in the chamber 154 being compressed by the supply and this compressed air acting to release the coating medium to the slot 136. When the applicator wheel stops the supply of the coating medium is never directly connected to the chamber 132 so that coating medium does not escape therefrom. In a further modification (Fig. 10) applicator wheel 160 rotates in a coating chamber 170 and is fixed to a shaft 162. Coating medium supplied from a container 177 enters an axial bore 174 in the shaft through a valve port 175. On rotation of the applicator wheel a slot 180 in the axial surface of the wheel opens into the wheel chamber 170 to release the coating medium thereto. If the applicator wheel is stopped there is no direct path between the container 177 and the wheel chamber 170.
