Abstract: 23,769. Petersen, A. J., and Holstein & Kappert Maschinenfabrik "Phonix." Oct. 13. B o t t l e s, washing.- Comprises a bottlewashing machine in which the bottles, when placed on a revolving table or spider, are brushed internally and externally, and are then automatically inverted and d rinsed. Fig. 2 shows the machine in plan and Fig. 1 is a sectional elevation. The spider comprises double radiating arms a and is driven from a shaft k through gearing k<1>. The central casing of the spider carries exterior brush spindles f which are driven as the spider rotates from a fixed bevel-wheel i<1>, and each of which drives a pair of brush spindles f<1>. The bottles are supported in pairs by pivoted carriers c which slide on the arms a and are moved to or from the centre of the spider by curved sliding crossheads o<3>, o<4>, operated by cranks n and connecting-rods n<1>, n<2> from the upper shaft k. The bottle-carriers are provided with sliding brushes p<1> which clean t h e bottoms of the bottles. The inner ends of the bottle-carriers are normally supported by rollers c<3> resting on rods e<1> on the spider, but when the carriers are in their outer position they are free to be tilted into an inclined position, as shown at the right-hand of Fig. 1, in which position the bottles are rinsed by jets h<1>.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the Control of Alternating Current Electric Motors.
Inventor: BARBOUR RALPH HENRY
IPC: H02K17/30
Filed: 1911-07-15
Granted: 1912-03-07
Abstract: 16,361. Barbour, R. H. July 15. Controllers, induction type.-In a starter and controller of the induction type for slip-ring induction motors, a controlling-force is arranged in opposition to the magnetic force acting on the movable member of the controller. The controller may be of the construction described in Specifications 8489/11 and 20,512/11, with primary coils in series with the rotor windings, and secondaries arranged in inductive relationship with the primaries. In the form shown, the magnetic force is opposed by a spring 5 between an arm 3 on the controller spindle 1 and a handle 4. At starting, the handle 4 is moved to the full ' on ' position after the stator circuits have been closed. The spring then pulls over the arm 3 against the magnetic action between the primary and secondary windings. Similar apparatus may be used as an automatic speed regulator for varying loads. The spring 5 may be replaced by a weight on a disk so placed that it tends to turn the movable member in opposition to the action of the inductive windings. When the motor load increases, the increased current moves the controller member against the action of the weight to a position for lower speed.

Abstract: 2701. British Insulated and Helsby Cables, and Bayles, E. A. Feb. 2. Condensers.-In the manufacture of electric condensers of the kind in which strips of paper and metal are rolled together, the condenser is immersed in liquid wax &c. subjected to pressure, and then cooled gradually, beginning at the point opposite the direction of pressure. The condenser d formed of strips of metal and paper rolled up tightly and bound and dried, is placed in a metal container e deeper than the condenser and having an open top and closed bottom, The containers are placed in a vessel and subjected to a vacuum, and, while under the vacuum, filled with molten paraffin wax &c. The container, while the wax is still molten, is placed in the cylinder a of a press which contains liquid wax &c., and is subjected to a large pressure, and is then gradually cooled from a point opposite the direction of pressure of the ram c, The cylinder is formed with a series of cooling-chambers 1 ... 6 having inlets and outlets f for heating or cooling fluid. The chamber 1 is cooled first, being the part furthest away from the direction of pressure, and the other chambers 2 ... 6 are cooled in succession. The chamber 5 is always supplied with a hot fluid to maintain the top surface of the wax molten until the rest is solidified, whereupon it is allowed to cool gradually. Between a cooled part 1 or 2 and the heated part 5, one or more empty chambers are allowed, so as to cool the whole gradually. By this means, the condenser and container are subjected to a liquid pressure throughout the cooling process. The ram c is preferably fixed and the cylinder moved towards the ram. The cylinder a rests on a base-plate b which forms a removable plug to it. By moving the cylinder over the ram, the condenser and container are removed embedded in a mass of wax.

Plug couplings.-In a seat or holder for connecting-plugs of telephone or telegraph exchanges, the cap forming the detachable part of the seat is locked to a tubular base in such a way as to prevent relative rotation until the force of a spring or equivalent weight has been overcome. In the form shown in Figs. 2, 3, 5, and 6, the seat consists of three parts, a fixed tubular base 1, Fig. 3, a detachable cap 10, Fig. 6, and a split locking-ring 6, Fig. 5. The base 1 has lugs 2 for fixing to the underside of the plug shelf, projections 3 for engaging L-shaped slots 11 in the cap 10, and a vertical slot 4 in which engages the inwardly turned end 5 of the ring 6.
