IPC: B02C21/00
Filed: 1935-12-24
Abstract: 454,125. Power-generating systems. GRAEMIGER, B., 2, Seegartenstrasse, Zurich, Switzerland. Dec. 24, 1935, No. 35773. [A Specification was laid open to inspection under Sect. 91 of the Acts, July 9, 1936.] [Classes 110 (iii) and 122 (iii)] [See also Groups II and XXVIII] Into the gaseous medium operating a pneumatic pulverizer there is introduced by compression and heating a quantity of energy greater than is necessary for the operation of the pulverizer, the excess energy being utilized in a power engine driving the compressor which supplies the gaseous medium. As shown in Fig. 1 a motor 1 drives a compressor 3 and the air or operating medium after passing through a heatexchanger 11, 12 is expanded in an engine 4 coupled to the compressor shaft. The exhaust from the engine 4 may heat the air from the compressor 3 in the heatexchanger 16, 17. Compressed air for the pulverizer 5 is tapped off by the pipe 10 or 10a, the fuel being admitted through pipe 15 and the pulverized coal led to a furnace through pipe 14. Additional air to the furnace may be furnished by the exhaust from the engine 4. In Fig. 2 the motor 1 drives an auxiliary compressor 2 arranged in the pipe 8 or parallel with the main compressor 3. The air from the compressor 3 is heated in a combustion chamber 13 and is expanded in the engine 4, water vapour, if desired, being admitted through pipe 41. The air to the pulverizer 5 is supplied through pipes 38, 39 the temperature of the air being controlled by the quantity of air admitted through valve 40. The combustion chamber 13 may be replaced by a heat-exchanger, the exhaust from the engine 4 passing direct into the pulverizer, or it may be returned to heat the air leaving the compressor 3 before entering the pulverizer. The gas from the combustion chamber 13 may heat the air passing between the compressor 3 and engine 4 and the exhaust from the engine 4 to the pulverizer. Further modifications are described in which the pulverizer discharges into a cyclone separator, part of the separated air being byepassed, to a combustion chamber, the two streams meeting in a heat-exchanger which heats the air passing between the compressor 3 and engine 4. The air to the pulverizer may also be taken from an intermediate stage of the engine 4, the exhaust passing back to the combustion chamber 13 to heat the air between the compressor 3 and engine 4.

Title: Lifting jack
IPC: B66F1/02
Filed: 1937-12-24
Abstract: 513,103. Lifting-jacks. AUTO SPECIALTIES MANUFACTURING CO., and LUCKER, M. B. Dec. 24, 1937, No. 35804. [Class 78 (iii)] In friction-grip ratchet jacks the load-sustaining sleeve 3, Figs. 6 and 10, is moved step-by-step up the fixed standard 2 by lifting and retaining gripping-members 9, 10 respectively. On raising the handle 5 the projection 23 turns the member 9 into its non-gripping position and by forcing it downwards against the pressure of the spring 12 causes the casing as a whole to rise on the standard. Meanwhile the rising casing by engaging the pin 19 rotates the retaining member into the non-gripping position, but as soon as the lifting-effort ceases, the falling casing depresses the pin 19 and rotates the member 10 to apply a sustaining grip. Forcible depression of the opposite lug 20, by using a tommy-bar engaging the lug 26 as a fulcrum, allows the load to be lowered. The casing can be pulled bodily up the standard by hand for rough adjustment. The gripping surfaces of the members 9, 10 are bevelled off at the top on one side of the standard and at the bottom on the other side as shown at 17a, 18a, and the two halves are slightly offset as seen in Fig. 10. In one modification the retaining-member is underneath the actuating- member. Modifications in the arrangement of the springs and of the lugs on the lever 5 also are described.

Title: Improvements in or relating to electrode structures for thermionic valves
Inventor: ATHERTON ALBERT HORACE
IPC: H01J19/38
Filed: 1953-12-24
Abstract: 789,215. Thermionic-cathode tubes. ELECTRIC & MUSICAL INDUSTRIES, Ltd. Dec. 10, 1954 [Dec. 24, 1953], No. 35838/53. Class 39(1). An insulating electrode support comprises two oppositely disposed surfaces, with at least two electrodes extending between them, with their ends resting on and secured to said surfaces, the electrodes having deformed or " loop " portions to accommodate longitudinal expansion. In the drawing, the supporting surfaces 6 and 7 are formed by ceramic members 2, 3 which may be integral with a valve base 1. The cathode is a hollow box 8, the grid a frame-like construction of two pressed parts placed together, Fig. 2 (not shown), and the anode 10 similarly of two flat parts placed together. The electrodes may thus be nested one within the other before being finally placed on the supports. The flat ends of the electrodes rest on the surfaces 6, 7, which have been previously metallized, and are brazed thereto. The inter-electrode spacing is thus accurately referenced from the surfaces 6, 7. The insulators may be slotted between the electrodes, as at 22, to reduce leakage. Metallized portions 26, 27 connect the electrodes to the leads. Valves with two or three grids may be similarly constructed. Specification 730,483 is referred to in the Provisional Specification.

IPC: G01F11/04
Filed: 1958-11-10
Abstract: 864,392. Dispensing measured quantities of liquid. REXALL DRUG CO. Ltd. Nov. 6, 1959 [Nov. 10, 1958], No. 36015/58. Class 106(5) [Also in Group XXVIII] A device for dispensing measured quantities of a liquid, paste or aerosol comprises a cylindrical chamber 1 adapted to be sealed into the neck of a container and closed at its outer end by a sealing washer 9, a sealing ring 4 disposed inside the cylinder intermediate its ends, a piston 2 reciprocable in the cylinder in engagement with the sealing ring 4, and a discharge tube 5 which is axially movable through the washer 9 and is arranged so that, upon its inward movement against the action of biasing means 14, it engages with and forces the piston downwardly into a position in which it is no longer sealed by the ring 4 and, upon its return movement, separates from its previous sealing engagement with the piston after the piston has again made sealing contact with the ring 4 whereby the metered quantity of aerosol then located above the piston is vented through the tube. When the piston is depressed, it moves downwardly past the ring 4 to a point where a transfer part or parts 3 in the piston are below the ring and so allow the passage of aerosol, urged by the gas pressure in the container, to the upper part of the chamber 1. The parts 3 are again sealed as the piston returns and, when the tube 5 no longer makes sealing contact with the piston, the pressure differential between the inner and outer parts of the chamber 1 results in the upward movement of the piston and discharge of the metered aerosol. The upper end of the piston has a conical projection 17 for making sealing contact with the tube or instead it may have a recess for this purpose. A spring 8 may be provided for urging the piston upwardly, and, if desired, the spring biasing means 14 may be disposed inside the upper part of the chamber. In an alternative form, the piston is inverted and the transfer parts 3 omitted, and it is arranged so that on depression of the piston as a whole past the ring 4, aerosol passes around the piston into the upper part of the chamber. The piston, instead of being of cup-shape, may be solid with appropriately rounded ends to facilitate re-entry with the sealing ring.

Title: Improvements relating to electrical impulse counters
Inventor: WARMAN BLOOMFIELD JAMES
IPC: H03K23/00
Filed: 1955-12-19
Abstract: 807,528. Counting-apparatus. SIEMENS EDISON SWAN Ltd. Dec. 17, 1956 [Dec. 19, 1955], No. 36368/55. Class 106 (1). In an electrical impulse counter comprising five similar counting elements, each having a normal and a registering condition, connected in a closed chain, pulses are applied to all the elements simultaneously and each element changes its condition in response to an applied pulse if, and only if, the immediately preceding element is in the registering condition, each element whilst in the registering condition applying a signal condition to a corresponding one of five code signalling wires. As shown, counting elements A, B, C, D, E each comprise a bistable pair of cold cathode tubes of which tube VA0 ... VE0 is conductive in the normal " 0 condition and tube VA1 ... VE1 is conductive in the registering " 1 " condition. The output signalling wires, such as MA, are taken from the cathodes of the " 1 " tubes; if a " 1 " tube is conducting, this cathode output will be positive and will condition the trigger input of the succeeding pair to render it responsive to the next input impulse from PT applied to line P via self-extinguishing trigger tube V1. It is shown that, starting with element E only in the " 1 " condition, the counter performs a cycle of 15 steps in which four elements register " 1 " on every 3rd step and two elements register " 1 " for the other 10 steps. To enable the two-at-a-time combinations only to represent the counts (up to ten) e.g. of dialling impulses in an automatic telephone system, the four-at-a-time combinations are effectively eliminated by two coincidence gates comprising rectifiers MR2, MR4 and MR5, MR7 respectively which if A and B or C and D, in combination with E, are in the " 1 " condition supply an auxiliary pulse to V1 via line PL to step on the counter. These gates do not eliminate the combination A, B, C, D all " 1 " and E " 0 " which occurs at the end of a cycle; this combination can be neglected or can be used to give a special signal. In an alternative embodiment, the cold cathode tubes are replaced by transistors. Reference is made also to other forms of counting element, e.g. electro-magnetic relays.
