Abstract: 4025. Heyden, W. Feb. 17. Tyres, pneumatic.- The tyre is provided with a diagonally-woven strip of fabric 4 and cross-woven strips 5 and 6 from the tread portion of which the warp threads are omitted or replaced by covered rubber threads. In a modification, a layer of knitted fabric or elastic webbing is placed between the strips 5 and 6 or attached to the outside of the strip 6. The strip 4 divides the tyre into two air chambers, causing the inflated tyre to assume an oval form, and is in some cases made in two flaps solutioned or vulcanized on their exterior and adapted to be joined by lacing or otherwise so that, in case of a puncture to the chamber 1, admission can be obtained to the interior thereof for the purpose of repair. Rubber linings 7 and 8 may be provided, and the divided upper portions 16 of the tyre are held securely in the rim by means of an air tube 3 provided with an aperture 18 leading to the inner air tube and covered by a corrugated rubber flap 19, so that both chambers may be inflated by one valve 17. The chamber 1 may be filled with cork, felt, or the like, and thereby prevents injury to the other air chamber. Fig. 10 shows two modifications of a valve suitable for inflating the tube 3. A washer 26, inserted in the air-supply tube 25, serves as a valve seat for the valve plug 30, which is capable of being depressed to close the tube 25 by a closing-cap 32 acting on its spindle 31. The right-band side of the valve shows the stem 27 attached to the washer 26, and the left-hand side shows it attached to the nut 28. Other forms of valves are described in the Specification. Fig. 15 shows one such form adapted to be attached to be tyre itself, whereby tearing of the air tube when the tyre creeps and weakening of the rim are prevented. 34 is a conical lip valve, and is connected with the air tube 3 by a separate pipe 37. The other branch 43 communicates with the other air chamber by way of a valve. The chambers can be inflated separately by inserting through the passage 38 the piece 41 provided with a bent passage 42 adapted to be put in communication with either of the said valves. In another modification, two valve joints are provided with separate feed-pipes, lying in the valve body, adapted to be separately connected to the air pump. In some of these valves a plug is inserted to close the air passages in the valve body, and in some cases the said plug has a projecting stem against which a screw cap presses to force the plug tightly against these passages. Fig. 17 shows a deflating-apparatus consisting of a bent tube 45 for entering the valve body and provided with a lateral opening 55 and a screwed end for attachment to a manometer.

Granted: 1900-03-24
Abstract: 8320. Brookes, A. G., [Ely, E. 0.]. April 20. Forging,. shearing.-Relates to machinery for forging horse-shoe calks of the form shown in Fig. 35 from red-hot bars of rectangular section. Figs. 3 and 4 show transverse sections of the machine, Fig. 36 shows the feeding-mechanism, and Fig. 17 the shearing-mechanism. Two heated bars K, Fig. 36, are alternately advanced through tubes b, b<1> with rectangular bores by push-rods c' which bear against springs c' in barrels c<3> fixed to rods c<5> which are drawn forward by constantly-rotating rollers c‹. When the bar K, Fig. 17, is arrested by the adjustable stop d<8> or the cutter d<5>, the springs c<4> first give way, and then the feed-rollers c<6> slip on the rods c<5>. The extent of this slipping may be varied by adjusting the bearings of the rollers by screws c<20>. The rollers are actuated from the shaft c<12> by spur and bevel gearing as shown. The tubes b, b<1> serve to retain the heat of the bars k, and to turn the bars over after each cut so that the sheared blank k<7>, Fig. 28, has reversely-bevelled ends k<2>, k<3>. The tubes b, b<1> are rocked alternately by toothed sectors which are carried by camactuated levers and engage with pinions on the tubes. The bars are sheared alternately by pairs of cutters d<5>, d<6>, Fig. 17, the ends of the bars being supported by arms d<7>. The cutters d<5> are carried by slides actuated by toggles d", d<13>, Figs. 4 and 17, connected by a link d<16> and worked by an arm d<22> on a rock shaft d<24>. The cutters are advanced when the toggles are bent out to ensure rapid action. The sheared blank is seized by a spring clip carried on the edge of the carrier wheel E, Fig. 4, and is then pushed by a rod e<7> against an anvil, where it is gripped by a piece e<16>. The rod e<7> is carried by an arm e<8> with a looped end e<9> to slide upon a bar e<10> fixed to the wheel E parallel to its axis. The loop end has a projection engaging a fixed cam. The gripping-piece e<16> is actuated by a lever e<17> pivoted to the wheel E and oscillated by a cam. The blanks are thus carried round by the wheel E past the dies, which gradually draw out and shape the projection k<5>, Fig. 35, on the calk. The forging-dies 1 to 12, Fig. 3, are carried on rotating or oscillating heads, and act alternately singly and in pairs as shown. The die 1 and the pairs of dies 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11,12 have the axes of their heads parallel to the shaft F, while the dies 4, 7, 10 have axes at right-angles thereto. The bearings of the spindles carrying the dies are arranged in the part f<5> of the machine frame, and rotation is imparted by spur gearing g, g<2> and bevel gearing g<7>, g<8>. The end thrust of the machine is taken by a plate carrying a series of conical radially-arranged rollers which bear against two plates between which the first plate is pressed.
