Title: An improved continous water weir of reinforced concrete or the like
IPC: E02B3/06
Filed: 1933-11-29
Abstract: 414,263. Concrete weirs and like walls. LENA, J., 190, Rue de Paris, Les Lilas, Seine, France. Nov. 29, 1933, Nos. 33512 and 33513. Convention dates, Nov. 30, 1932 and Nov. 18, 1933. [Class 68 (ii).] Coffering for constructing a caisson, which will be dis-assembled after cement has been poured in and a weir of concrete cast therein, consists of sheet piles 2, 2<1>, 3 and 3<1> formed to interlock together and with transverse plates 8. The interlocking is effected by vertically-sliding dovetail projections on one plate into engagement with grooves in the next. The end plate 1 of the caisson is U-shaped. Plates 2, 2<1> may then be driven in vertically and interlocked in one operation with plate 1, and the transverse plate 8 is then driven in. Some of the plates 3, 3<1> may be longer than the others so that when driven in they may project further into the ground, and the monolithic structure cast in the caisson will then have integral piles projecting into the ground. Where the caisson plates are all of one length, piles may be formed by driving long tubes 22 down through a compartment of the caisson. The plates may be driven in by a mandrel 10 as shown in Fig. 2. Where tubes 22 are employed they may be provided with a plug at the bottom so that they can serve as mandrels. The part 5 of the interlocking joint may be divided and held together by a rod 14 passing through a projection 13. Removal of the rod allows the part 5' to be removed and breaks the joint thus facilitating dis-assembly. For use in deep water, a number of plates can he connected vertically one above another.

Class 108(3) [Also in Group XXIV] In a motor vehicle having its main friction clutch 19 disengaged by turning a lever 15 about its pivot point 16 in a clockwise direction (see Group XXIV), disengagement is assisted by a U- shaped spring 21 arranged so that it is only effective when the clutch has been at least partially disengaged. Knifeedges 22, 23 on the arms of the U-spring engage in notches 24, 25 in the end of the lever 15 and in a screw 42. The degree of compression of the arms of the U- shaped spring 21 can be adjusted by turning the screw 42, and the position of the notch 25 relative to the notch 24 is adjusted by screw means 41, so that when the clutch 19 is in the engaged position shown, the notches lie on a straight line passing through the pivot 16. As soon as the lever 15 is turned slightly clockwise about its pivot 16, the spring 21 takes up the position shown dotted, and the tendency for its arms to expand produces a turning moment assisting the clockwise movement of the lever.

Abstract: 954,737. Sight testing; projectors. TEXTRON Inc. Sept. 12, 1962, No. 34861/62. Heading G2J. A projector for sight-testing has in one wall a screen and an opening, a slide carriage movable in the projector housing to register a selected test slide in the light path from a lamp, means for projecting the slide on to the screen and means for projecting the slide through the opening on to an external screen. In this way, a refractionist is enabled to view on the screen in the wall of the housing the slide presented to the patient on the external screen without having to look around. As shown, light from a lamp 23 passes through a window 32 to a semi-reflector 35 whereby light is reflected to a monitoring screen 40 and light is transmitted to a further reflector 45 and thence through an opening 50, in the same wall as screen 40, to an external screen. On the two screens, images of a selected test slide are focused by lenses 37, 47 respectively. Each test slide is of twice the height of the picture gate 32 and they are supported on a rotatable and axially movable carriage having parallel arms 58, 59, the arm 58 being connected to a trunnion pin 57 slidable in a stem 55 and the arm 59 being slidable on a rotatable sleeve 62. Rotatable on the stem 55 is a wheel 70, accessible for rotation from outside the projector housing and carrying a bracket 72 which engages in a slot in the carriage arm 58, so that the carriage rotates with the wheel to bring a selected slide into the light path. The position of the carriage is indexed by a ball and detent operating on selector wheel 70. Any part of the selected slide may be projected by raising or lowering the slide carriage along its rotary axis, this being effected by a pinion operating on a rack provided on an arm 86 integral with the trunnion pin 57. The bracket 72 on the slide carriage also carries an astigmatic dial or chart 106 in a spur sleeve gear 105 and, when wheel 70 has been so indexed as to bring this chart into the light path, knob 107 may be rotated to make astigmatic tests, this knob being coupled through spur gears to the spur gear sleeve 105.
