Title: Improvements in or relating to typographical slug casting machines
IPC: B41B11/54
Filed: 1941-02-01
Abstract: 541,166. Type-bar-making machines. MERGENTHALER LINOTYPE CO. Feb. 1, 1941. No. 1338. Convention date, July 27, 1940. [Class 100 (iii)] Ejecting type-bars.-In means for automatically adjusting the ejector in accordance with the length of the mould, the adjustment of the blade is effected during the first machine cycle after the mould has been changed by means such as a cam on the cam-shaft of the machine, and the proper number of bladesections is determined by means associated with the mould. The blade-sections C<SP>3</SP>, Fig. 2, are selected by a vertically sliding bar C<SP>5</SP> operated by a spring- controlled lever D, which has at its forward end a pawl D<SP>2</SP> adapted to engage ratchet-teeth D3 on a pivoted arm D<SP>4</SP>, When the mould-disc driving- pinion B is drawn forwards by means of its hand-wheel B<SP>5</SP> for the purpose of changing the mould, an arm E, which is rocked by the pinion, moves the arm D' out of engagement with the pawl D<SP>2</SP>, and the bar C<SP>5</SP> is withdrawn by its spring to its lowest position, which corresponds to an ejector of minimum width. The selection of the blade-sections is determined by the left-hand liner a<SP>3</SP>, Fig. 1, of each mould, the liner having at its outer end a projection a<SP>4</SP>, the length of which depends on the size of the mould-slot. After the mould has been changed and the machine started, a slide G is advanced against the projecting end of the liner by a lever F<SP>4</SP>, to which is connected a link F<SP>4</SP>. A spring H<SP>3</SP> connects the link F<SP>4</SP> to a lever H<SP>1</SP>, Fig. 2, which is operated by a cam M<SP>1</SP> on the camshaft of the machine. The lower end of the link F<SP>4</SP> is connected by a lever F<SP>1</SP> and a rod F to the lever D, by which the ejector selecting-bar C<SP>5</SP> is adjusted. The movement of the lever D draws the pawl D<SP>2</SP> over the ratchet-teeth D<SP>3</SP>, so that the lever is locked in adjusted position. The link F<SP>4</SP> is locked out of action, except when a change of mould is to be made, by a pivoted latch-bar J, which engages a shoulder F' on the link. The latch-bar is withdrawn when the pinion B is drawn forwards prior to a change of mould. A sliding plate K, Fig. 1, is movable by hand into engagement with the teeth of the mould-disc A, so as to lock the disc against rotation when it is drawn forwards out of gear with the turning-pinion B. The setting of the ejector is indicated by a bar L connected to the lever D and bearing symbols which are visible through a hole L<SP>2</SP> in a plate L<SP>1</SP>.

Title: Ferrous sheets and method for improving the magnetic properties of ferrous sheets
IPC: C22C38/02
Filed: 1965-01-12
Abstract: A method of improving the magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic material comprises processing the material to produce sheet at least 10 mils. thick and having a surface smoothness reading on the profilometer of no more than 5 micro-inches.  The material is selected from the following: Magnetic ingot iron, low-alloy steel, non-oriented silicon-iron, cube-on-edge silicon-iron, nickel-iron magnetic alloys and aluminium-iron oriented alloys.  Examples are, in per cent by weight: .oriented silicon-iron.Si.2-4 ..C.0.15-0.303 ..Mn.0.50-0.15 ..S.0.03 max ..Al.0.01 max .non-oriented silicon-iron.. ..Si.0.5-5.0 ..C.0.03-0.1 ..Mn.0.3 max ..S.0.03 max ..Al.0.5 max .low alloy steel.C.0.05-0.1 ..Mn.0.15-1.0 ..Si.0.1 max ..S.0.03 max ..P.0.15 max .magnetic ingot iron.C.0.15 ..Mn.0.03 ..Si.0.003 ..S.0.025 ..P.0.005 .nickel-iron.Ni.20-80 e.g. 47-49 ..C.0.3 max ..Mn.0.3-1.0 ..Si.0.7 max ..S.0.02 max ..P.0.02 max ..Al.0.05 max  The magnetic characteristics improved are permeability and core loss at high induction from about the knee of the magnetization curve up to saturation.  Excitation requirements for establishing surface flux are decreased and permeability at high frequencies is improved.  The sheet stock may be hot rolled, pickled and cold rolled with a reduction of less than 10% to impart a smooth surface.  If the stock is reduced by cold rolling, smooth rolls are used only for the final pass or passes, reductions of less than 5% being sufficient to produce a smooth surface.  The stock may be hot rolled and then cold-rolled in one or more stages with or without intermediate annealing. A final heat treatment will normally be given. For non-oriented stock smooth rolls may be used after the magnetic properties have been developed. For cube-on-edge stock the smoothing should be performed before the ultimate heat treatment for perfecting the orientation.  In an example a steel is hot-rolled, coiled as rolled at a temperature not above 1150 DEG F, pickled, de-carburized at 1250-1600 DEG F to reduce the carbon content to no more than 0.005% and cold-rolled with a reduction of 40-80%.  A smooth surface was then produced by machining.  In a further example cube-on-edge stock was hot-rolled, cold-rolled, annealed, cold-rolled between smooth rolls and heat treated.

Abstract: 1,235,392. Thermal switches. KING- SEELEY THERMOS CO. 17 May, 1968 [26 Oct., 1967], No. 1493/69. Divided out of 1,235,391. Heading H1N. An hydraulically actuated temperature respon - sive switch comprises a pair of movable contacts 74, 166, Fig. 4, operable over separate temperature ranges, one contact 74 co-operating with a fixed contact 78 adjustable in position by a cam assembly 120, Fig. 5, acting through arm 80 and the other contact 166 co-operating with a fixed contact 168 adjustable in position by a calibrating screw 84. Arm 80 carrying the fixed contact 74 has a threaded stud 124 engageable with the face of cam 120 on a temperature adjustment spindle 34 of an oven. A second threaded stud 126 engages a fixed stop 130 to determine a preset, high temperature for oven self-cleaning. The arm 170 carrying fixed contact 168 is adjustable in position by threaded stud 178 and determines the preset temperature above which the contacts 166, 168 remain open to control an enabling solenoid of the oven door lock whereby opening of the oven is prevented at the higher range of operating temperatures. The movable contacts 74, 166 are operable from a Bourdon tube assembly (not shown) through link 60, 62 coupled to a rigid arm 64 of a contact arm assembly 44, 68 riveted at 70 to this casing. At normal oven temperatures resilient contact arm 68 is yieldingly restrained relative to the arm 64 by engagement in a slot 94 of a bimetal extension piece 90. At the higher self-cleaning temperatures heater 100 of the bimetal extension 90 is placed in circuit whereby the extension bends (to the right in Fig. 4) to increase the contact oven-closure and operating range of the contact 74. At the higher temperatures arm 64 also moves to engage projection 166 on the movable contact arm 154 of movable contact 166 to control the oven door lock. The control spindle 34 carrying the temperature adjustment cam 120 also carries an additional face cam 202 for setting a spring contact arm 198, 210, Figs. 3, 5, into engagement with alternative fixed contacts, as 192, 206, Fig. 5, whereby "Bake" and "Broil" heater windings are selectively connected to high and low voltage supplies at the different temperature setting. A further edge cam 246 controls main on/off contacts 248, 250. An end stop and detent device is also described for the control shaft 34, Fig. 8, in which rotation of the shaft is normally limited to about 360 degrees by engagement of legs 266, 268 on the shaft against the sides of a fixed stop 262. In order to move the control shaft 34 to its selfclean mode the shaft 34 is pushed inwardly so that the legs 266, 268 move over to straddle the stop 262. Electric circuit arrangements for the control of a solenoid preventing the opening of the oven door lock during self-clean mode are described and claimed in the Specification 1,235,391.

Filed: 1973-01-12
Abstract: 1357311 Treating exhaust gas ROBERT BOSCH GmbH 12 Jan 1973 [14 Jan 1972] 1706/73 Heading F1B An exhaust gas decontamination system for internal combustion engines comprises at least one reactor and a burner in the exhaust gas pipe, the quantity of air fed through a burner air line to the burner being regulable to a constant value by means of an air regulating valve independently of the counter pressure at the burner and the delivery performance of an air pump supplying air to the burner. Exhaust gases flow into a reactor 2 in which oxides of nitrogen are reduced. The reactor is lined with a heat retaining material or a catalyst and is heated to its operating temperature by burning fuel supplied through a nozzle 4. Fuel is drawn by a pump 7 from a tank 8, the flow of fuel being regulated by a flat-seat diaphragm valve 9 provided with a passage 13 around the diaphragm, the passage containing an adjustable restrictor 14. The flow of fuel may be cut-off by a solenoid operated valve 6. Air is supplied to the burner from a pump 21 by a pipe 20 which includes an air regulating valve 22, which includes a diaphragm 26 biased by a spring 23 and mechanically connected by a linkage to a butterfly valve 28 and to an electrical switch 29. The chamber on one side of the diaphragm is connected to a venturi 25 in the air pipe and the chamber on the other side of the diaphragm is connected to a point in the air pipe immediately upstream of the butterfly valve. The switch 29 opens to deenergize the solenoid valve 6 and cut-off the fuel supply. When the engine is started from cold, the burner 3 operates to heat the reactor 2 to its operating temperature, the valve 22 maintaining a constant air-flow appropriate to the fuel metered by the valve 9. When the reactor 2  reaches the required temperature, a sensor (not shown) actuates a valve 30 in the air pipe, shuts off the air flow to the burner and instead supplies air to a second reactor 33, in which CO and HC are oxidized. When the air flow through the venturi drops below a pre-determined amount, the diaphragm 26 moves to open the butterfly valve, open the switch 29 and thus cut-off the fuel flow.
