Title: Improvement in Coolers for Motor Road Vehicles.
Inventor: HEISIG JULIUS
Filed: 1904-03-16
Granted: 1904-05-26
Abstract: 6451. Heisig, J. March 16. Gas or explosive - vapour engines, cooling in. Radiators for motor road vehicles are constructed of sheet-metal plates bent and soldered together in such a way as to form front-to-back passages for the air, separated by vertical and horizontal passages for the water. A number of forms and arrangements of metal plates are described ; Figs. 3, 13, and 17 are typical examples. In Fig. 3, the air passages i are bounded on one side by flat plates, and on the three other sides by corrugations in plates h. In Fig. 13, all four sides of the air passages i are formed by corrugated plates, which, further, are so arranged that the water passages are oblique instead of vertical. In Fig. 17, the air passages are of octagonal shape, and the water spaces are interconnected by holes drilled in the plates as at m. In a further modification, Fig. 18, the water takes a zig-zag course along horizontal passages, and by means of movable plates o<1> two or more of these passages may be put in parallel, as shown in the lower part of the Figure, to obtain a more rapid water circulation when the weather is cold enough.

Granted: 1905-04-05
Abstract: 7846. Pinckney, P. April 5. Plates, securing tubes to coating pipes and tubes. -Methods of securing water tubes of special forms of steam generator are shown in Figs. 11, 22, and 23, Fig. 22 also showing a coating for the tube. The stud B, Fig. 11, is suitably secured to the tubeplate A so as to contain the hemispherical piece D to which the tube is secured. Around the stud B is screwed the ferrule E which carries the cap F for pressing upon the collar G, which, in its turn, forces the piece D against its seating in the stud. As regards the method shown in Fig. 22, the cap or socket 8<A> is employed, while in Fig. 23 the tube-plate A is shown as formed with projections into which the tubes are screwed or expanded. To prevent the conduction of heat from the tube shown in Fig. 22 to an outer tube in which it is placed, the glass-tube covering 7<A> is provided, a brass casing being fitted for protective purposes.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Stoppers and Caps for Bottles, Jars, and the like.
Inventor: JULIEN RAMON GABARRO
Filed: 1904-04-19
Granted: 1904-06-16
Abstract: 9020. Julien, R. G. April 19. Stoppers; capsules, bottle and like; corks, retaining.-Bottles, jars, and the like are closed by means of a cork or stopper, which is secured in place by means of a second stopper or cap permanently held in the bottle neck by a spring catch or equivalent. As shown in Fig. 1, a cork stopper c is retained in place in the neck of a bottle a by means of a cap h. The cork is provided with a hole d, two bolts f in which are normally pressed outwards by a spring g. When the cap is placed in position over the mouth of the bottle, the bolts f engage in holes b in the bottle neck, thereby securing the cork in position. To open the bottle, it is necessary to break the cap h. Fig. 3 shows a method of securing the stopper or cork c by means of a second stopper m. The stopper m and the bottle neck are formed with corresponding grooves k, i, in either of which is placed a split annular spring l, which secures the stopper m when it has been forced far enough into the neck. A cap h is also secured by means of a split ring engaged by grooves. According to whether a stopper m or a cap h is used as a retainer, the bottle neck is provided with an inner or an outer groove i. In a modified form, ifig. 9, a cap h is secured by the use of balls r, which, when the cap has been put on, rest in an annular channel, one half of which is formed by a groove k in the cap, the other half being formed by a groove i in the bottle neck. Before the cap is applied, the balls are retained in recesses w, situated in the back wall of the groove k of the cap. Fig. 12 shows a transverse section of a modified form of retaining-stopper m, which is provided upon its periphery with four spring tongues o, taking into the groove i formed in the bottle neck. The stopper m, Fig. 13, is retained in the neck by means of springs g, arranged in transverse holes p in the stopper, the springs pressing balls r into the groove i. In a further modification, the stopper m is kept in place by one or two spring blades s, Figs. 17 and 18, which are engaged by the groove or grooves i. While the stopper is being forced into position, the blades s are bent around curved portions v of the stopper.

Abstract: 23,754. Moore, J. S. Nov. 17. Interlocking - apparalus; indicators. - In a detector mechanism, toggle mechanism operates the two locking- bolts, which have a further motion beyond the locking- motion to release the signal, a further pair of sliding bolts being combined with the apparatus to control electric circuits indicating that the points are exactly in place. The locking-bolts a, a', Figs. 1 and 3, are actuated by toggles c, c' through a rod d and a T-lever e connected to the ordinary locking-bar f and the connexion g to the cabin. According to the position of the points, one inoperative bar a or a<1> forms the fulcrum for the toggles to move the other bar a<1> or a through the locking - notch in the stretcher bar h. The continued movement of the bar a or a<1> causes a projection j, Fig. 1, to turn a pivoted lever i, and actuate a sliding bar l connected with the signallocking or detector slide. Additional sliding bars m, m<1>, Fig. 5, connected each with a point tongue carry a lever n pivoted at o, o<1> on each bar. Relative movement of the tongues will cause rotation of the lever n, and thereby break an indicating- circuit at contacts p, p<1> closed by the lever n.
