Abstract: 23,071. Bentley, F. C. Oct. 9. [Cognate Application, 24,437/12.] Portable pressure reservoirs.- In a fire - extinguisher of the type in which liquid is forced out of a container b, Fig. 4, by compressed gas from a cylinder a provided with a valve i controlled by a handle k and screwed spindle l, means are provided for (1) rapidly opening the valve i independently of the screw mechanism, (2) simultaneously opening the liquid-discharge valve, and (3) preventing unauthorized operation. The handle k has a threaded sleeve k<1> turning in a sleeve m, which is provided with diametrically-opposite pins n, Fig. 1, passing through vertical slots in the gland fitting d<1>. These pins are engaged by cam-slots r in the forked end of a lever o pivoted at q, so that when the lever o is depressed, the sleeve m, handle k, k<1>, and spindle l slide down bodily in the fitting d<1> to open the valve i. At the same time the lever o depresses a lever 8 engaging the stem of a spring-urged valve controlling the discharge of liquid. To prevent unauthorized opening of the valve i by the screw mechanism, the handle k is connected to its sleeve k<1> by a one-way clutch, which enables the valve i to be tightened on to its seat, but prevents opening of the valve by the handle, except when the handle and sleeve are locked together by a pin. The lever o is normally locked by a pin engaging the lower ends of the slots r and passing through a hole u in a lug v on the fitting d<1>. A safety-valve t is fitted.

Title: Improvements relating to Multiple Hydraulic Presses.
IPC: B30B7/04
Filed: 1912-11-26
Granted: 1913-11-26
Abstract: 27,217. Variable Speed Gear, Ltd., and Robson, J. Nov. 26. Presses, cylinder-and-piston; governing and controlling; relief and safety devices; ram-retracting devices; pressure producing apparatus.-Multiplecylinder hydraulic press tools are operated through the medium of a variable delivery pump, preferably of the type in which a swash-plate causes the reciprocation of the pistons. The movement of the press rams may be utilized to restore the swashplate to the mid position. A by-pass valve permits the flow of liquid from the hydraulic press cylinders direct to the suction tank, on the return stroke of the rams. Figs. 3 and 4 show the press cylinders A' arranged radially and fed from a common pipe a to which liquid is delivered from the pump B by a pipe b. The pump is connected also to the tank C. A pipe c leads liquid from the pipe b to the tank through a by-pass valve D, which may be outside the pump as shown or within the valve plate of the pump. A lever B' working on a quadrant and secured by means of a rod b<1> to the pivoted lever b<2> serves to move the swashplate of the pump to regulate the delivery of the same. The lever b<2> is connected to one of the press-ram rods through a pin-and-slot mechanism a<2>, b<2Î>. The lever B<1> being moved in the direction of the arrow, the delivery of the pump is started. The continued corresponding movement of the ram A<2> restores the lever to its midposition. By sliding the lever B<2> laterally, it is made to engage the operating-lever of the cock D. A backward movement of the lever B' then opens the by-pass valve D. The rams are retracted by means of a spring. Alternatively the by-pass valve lever may be attached, by means of the rod d, directly to the hand lever B<2>. The valve D may be in the form of a combined relief and by-pass valve so that the by pass would be opened on the attainment of a predetermined maximum pressure in the ram cylinders.

Patent GB-191319308-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Slicing Machines.
Inventor: BERKEL WILHELMUS ADRIANUS VAN
IPC: B26D1/143
Filed: 1913-08-26
Granted: 1914-02-26
Abstract: 19,308. Berkel, W. A. van, [U.S. Slicing Machine Co.]. Aug. 26. Cutting slices in succession. - The feed - mechanism of a slicing- machine is so arranged that the feed-table, after a certain travel, is returned to its starting position by the continued operation of the machine. As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the feed-table 46 slides transversely of a table 10, which is reciprocated along fixed guides 12, 13 by means of a crank and connecting-rod from the driving-shaft of the machine. The table 46 is fed towards the knife by a toothed wheel 44 engaging a rack 45, and the wheel 44 is turned by a worm 38 gearing into a worm-wheel 42. T h e worm 38 is feathered on a sleeve 23 carrying clutch members 24, 30 at its ends and movable in either direction by a lever 25. When the sleeve 23 is moved to the left, the worm is coupled to the shaft 19, which carries a ratchet-wheel 52 at its end and is operated for the forward feed in the ordinary manner by a pawl. When the sleeve 23 is moved to the right, it is coupled to a member 31 having a clutch connexion, arranged to permit slip if necessary, with a pinion 35 in engagement with a fixed rack on the underside of the guide 13. As the carriage 10 reciprocates, the pinion 35 is rotated, and the motion is transmitted to the toothed wheel 44 which effects the return of the feed-table 46 to its starting position. The gearing is so proportioned that the feed-table is completely returned during one backward stroke of the reciprocating table. The lever 25, by which the reversal of the feed is effected, is connected to an arm 58 which lies in the path of pins 59 on the underside of the feed-table 46. The shifting of the lever 25 is assisted by a spring-controlled lever 63 having bevel-surfaces acting on a pin 62 on an arm 61, which also carries a handle 66 for hand control. The feed-table 46 is covered by a plate 50 on which the material to be sliced is supported, and is guided on the reciprocating table 10 by spring pins 47. A spring-pressed block 67 ensures that a definite rotation is given to the shaft 19 for each operation of the feed-pawl. In a modification, Fig. 6, the spur pinion 35 is replaced by a skewwheel 75 which is driven by a similar wheel 76 mounted on feathers on a shaft 69 driven by chain- and-sprocket gear from the hand-wheel shaft 73. The wheel 76 is mounted between collars secured to the table 10, which is thus guided in its reciprocating movement by the shaft 69.
