Patent EE-200200332-A (EE)
IPC: B27M3/00
Filed: 2000-12-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing composite products. Thereby a number of elements to be assembled is provided and glue is applied to at least one surface of each element. The elements are assembled, and the assembled elements are subjected to pressure in a press. The invention is characterized in that amount of at least one component of the glue, applied at a specific point of glue application on an element, is controlled to be a function of the waiting time it takes before the point of glue application is subjected to the pressure in the press. It also relates to an apparatus for carrying out the method which is caracterized by a control unit (15) which is programmable to run a control sequence for the glue applicator (10) and/or the element feeder (6; 16) to provide an optimal applied glue amount.

Title: Method of and Means for Measuring the Work performed in a Rotary Phase Current System.
Filed: 1898-02-25
Granted: 1899-02-25
Abstract: 4746. Siemens Bros. & Co., [Siemens & Halske Aktiengesellschaft]. Feb. 25. Energy meters.-In electrodynamometers and motor meters for three-phase alternating currents, two pressure coils i<1>, i<2> are connected mechanically together, and move in two fields produced by main current coils arranged so that their effects are additive. A star connection between the three mains J<1>, J<2>, J<3> is made through three non-inductive resistances w<1>, w<2>, w<3>, two of the connections including the pressure coils. These resistances are usually equal, but may be adjusted to compensate for inaccuracy in the relations of the coils. Tn the arrangement illustrated, two field coils inserted in the main J<3> oppose the magnetic action of the other coils, which are inserted in the mains J<1>, J<2>, connected with the respective pressure coils. In other arrangements the main J<3> includes no field coil. Each of the other mains may include two field coils, one of which has twice the number of turns contained in the other, and which are placed so that the pressure coil i<1> is in a field due to the sum of the effects of the large coil in the main J' and the small one in the main J<2> ; the other coils are related similarly. In a modification of this arrangement, the large and small coils in each main J<1>, J<2> are replaced by single coils, placed so as to act on the two pressure coils unequally. In a third arrangement, the mains J<1>, J<2> contain equal field coils, but each part of the movable armature has two windings ; one of these in each part of the armature is between the main J<3> and the star connection. The other windings, situated in the fields due respectively to the currents in the mains J', J<2>, are respectively between these mains and the star connection, and oppose the action of the windings connected with the main J<3>.

Abstract: 18,063. Gustafsson, K. G. Aug. 22. Acetylene.-In apparatus in which the carbide is fed into water through a layer of oil, the formation of an emulsion of oil and water and consequent premature production and escape of gas are avoided b the following arrangements:-The carbide is fed into oil in a passage b with a sloping bottom d, and passes thence into the water and through a hole h in a funnel g, which is closed by a removable bottom. The gas produced rises in the funnel, and causes an upward current of water therein. This overflows the wall i, and descends a passage k, carrying with it the oil detached from the carbide. The oil escapes from the bottom of the passage to the surface outside the funnel, and the water circulates back to the opening h. The bottom of the funnel is opened occasionally for detaching the lime.

Abstract: 23,125. Justice, P. M., [Garcia - Rabell Trading Co.]. Nov. 3. Cigarette-making machines.-Relates to applying and crimping or pasting the wrapper strip in continuous - rod cigarette machines. The rod of tobacco, with its wrapper strip and carrier belt, enters the bell-shaped mouthpiece 6 of a tube 5, Figs. 1 and 4, the edges of the paper strip being guided by the channels 9 until they meet, upstanding vertically. By means of suitably-shaped folding-blades the upturned edges are turned over and folded on themselves as shown in the sectional views, Figs. 8, 10, and 12. The cigarette rod now enters a tube 12 split horizontally so that it can be opened for inspection of the interior. The carrier belt leaves the tube 5 at the opening 11, joining the rod again as it enters the final pressing- ring 18. During its passage through the tube 12, the joint is crimped between the wheels 14, 15 as shown in Fig. 14, and the crimped seam is pressed down by the wheel 16. The wheel 14 is driven through a universal joint, and its pressure on the wheel 15 is adjustable by means of the screw 46. A blade may be supported from the left end so as to extend within the cigarette rod beneath the crimped seam and afford support for a single crimping-wheel. A suitable pasting-device may be substituted for the crimping-wheels.

Title: Improvements in Match Machines.
Inventor: COOK WILLIAM EDWARD
Filed: 1898-12-19
Granted: 1899-02-04
Abstract: 26,780. Cook, W. E. Dec. 19. Matches.-A machine for making matches comprises a splint-cutting apparatus, a travelling carrier for conveying the splints to the paraffining, dipping, and drying apparatus, and mechanism for ejecting the matches from the carrier. There are an upper and lower series of cutters 5, Fig. 4, which are tubular and double for the purpose of cutting two splints simultaneously from blocks of wood w, fed intermittently along converging channels 12, 13. The cutters are carried by plates 11, 6, secured to reciprocating crossheads which simultaneously approach towards or recede from each other under the action of rods 3 and cranks 1 on the main shaft 2. The blocks w are preferably fed forwards by means of fluted rollers actuated by pawl and ratchet mechanisms which are driven by an eccentric on the main shaft. Supplementary cutting-edges are formed upon the cutters 5, for trimming the wavy edges formed upon the blocks w by the tubular cutting - edges. The splints are directed into the carrier 29 by guides preferably made and actuated in the mannerdescribed in Specification No. 14,825, A.D. 1898, the rods carrying the guides being connected to levers 38 actuated by cams 40, driven by means of bevel gearing 45, 46, 51, 52, and 42, 43 from the main shaft 2. The carrier may be of any suitable form, but preferably is mainly composed of a series of parallel slats 16, Fig. 9, connected by links 21, and a series of pairs of toothed slats 18 which are longitudinally movable and are fitted witbin slots formed in the links 21. The splints are directed into the spaces 24 between the outer and inner slats, and the latter are then moved into the positions shown in Fig. 9, so as to grip the splints. Bands 27 are preferably employed to bind the slats together. The slats 16 have reduced ends 19 which engage with cams 28 having curved and straight portions adapted to drive the carrier intermittently. There are two sets of heating, paraffining, and dipping or heading apparatus, one for treating the splints fed to the lower part of the carrier and the other for treating the splints fed to the upper part. After the matches have passed through the drying-chamber, they are ejected from the carrier by two series of plates 69, 70 mounted upon bars 72, and moved simultaneously towards or away from each other, the series 69 by means of a bell-crank lever 77 and gearing 83, 84, 86, 87, 48, and 49 from the main shaft, and the series 70 by me ans of a bell-crank lever 88 and gearing 43, 44, 45, 46, 48, and 49. The carrier with its load of matches travels vertically between the plates 69, 70, and is propelled by cams 60 mounted on shafts 61 driven by means of gearing 62, 63, 64, 67, and 68. The matches are preferably discharged upon belts 91, 92, passing over pulleys which are driven by means of chain gearing 99 and wheel and worm gearing 103 from the shaft 47.
