Granted: 1911-12-30
Abstract: 13,947. Fehde, P. Sept. 29, 1910, [Convention date]. Exhaust, dealing with; exhaust-silencers.- The exhaust issuing from a nozzle d enters a return pipe b, the outlet o to the atmosphere being placed near the nozzle d, some of the exhaust passing round the pipe b more than once. Air may be admitted through non-return valves e, so that unconsumed particles in the gases may be burnt by the-hot exhaust at the nozzle d. As shown, the main exhaust pipe is bifurcated, one branch d<3> having air-admission valves e and delivering past the other branch d<2>, the mixed gases burning in the chamber d<5>. Slots may be provided near the outlet end of the pipe b to act as additional outlets to the atmosphere.
Patent GB-191118861-A (GB)
Title: Improved Automatic Steering Mechanism.
Inventor: BRANDAO MARIO GOMES
IPC: B63H25/04
Filed: 1911-08-22
Granted: 1912-03-07
Abstract: 18,861. Brandao, M. G. Aug. 22. Boats; flying toys; mechanical and like toys.-Relates to steering-mechanism for moving bodies such as torpedoes, small boats, balloons, and toy automobiles, and consists in an arrangement of movable and adjustable stops acting at certain moments on a lever controlling the steering- gear whereby the moving body is made to travel along a predetermined path, which, in the case of toy automobiles, will render them more attractive. The invention is illustrated as applied to a small motor vehicle. Stops 22 are detachably mounted on drums 7 at certain distances in holes 21 along helices on these drums, and the drums are screwed along fixed screws 6, when rotated by rods 8 attached to gear - wheels 10, so that the stops are brought in succession against. the projection 17 of a steering- lever 18 and thereby deflect this lever about its pivot 19 and give set in one direction or the other to the steering-rod 37. The rod 37 carries a slide 36 connected to the lever 18 by a pin 20, and adjustable laterally by a screw and nut 39 to permit the steering-gear to be correctly set at the zero position; a screw 41 serves to clamp the slide 36 to the rod 37 after the adjustment has been made. To lock the lever 19 in various positions, an arm 29 is pivoted in brackets 31 on the lever 18 and is drawn by a spring so as to snap into one of the notches 34 in a fixed sector 35. This locking-device is released before every new setting of the lever by a second lever 23, which is also pivoted at 19, and which, at one end 24, is forked loosely about the projection 17 of the main lever 18, and, at the other end 25, is provided with a notch 26 for the locking-arm 29. The stops 22 first deflect the lever 23, to a small extent, thereby lifting the locking-arm 29 up the side of the notch 26 and out of a notch 34; the lever 18 is then deflected, and just before the stops 22 leave the projection 17, they release the fork 24 and the arm 29 is brought down by its spring and snaps into the notch 26 and the other notch 34 to which it has been shifted. The wheels 10 are geared to the back axle 13 to which only one wheel is fast, the other being a free wheel, as is well known to be required for curved paths.

Patent GB-191123190-A (GB)
Title: Improved Process for the Manufacture of Formates of Chromium, Aluminium and Iron.
Inventor: WOLFF ALBERT
IPC: C07C51/41
Filed: 1911-10-20
Granted: 1912-03-14
Abstract: 23,190. Wolff, A. Oct. 20. Aluminium, chromium, and ferric formates are obtained by treating a strong solution of the metal sulphate with equivalent quantities of solid sodium formate, 'sodium sulphate being precipitated. The solid salts can be obtained by evaporation in vacuo of the solutions after separation of the sodium sulphate. For use as mordants it is not necessary to separate the sodium sulphate but the reaction mixture may be diluted to the desired strength. It is preferable to use commercial sodium formate which contains a small quantity of sodium carbonate, or to add a small quantity of sodium carbonate or hydrate to avoid the production of insoluble basic salts. It is stated that, if sodium acetate is used instead of sodium formate, difficultly soluble aluminium acetate, for example, will be precipitated with the sodium sulphate.

Abstract: 28,095. Wilson, J. T. Dec. 5. Piston packing.-Packing-rings are locked against undue expansion, the degree of expansion being increased as the ring wears until a predetermined limit is reached. The edges of the packing are arranged to break off if the packing catches in a port. The split rings 4, Fig. 1, are formed with grooves receiving flanges on a middle split ring 5. The rings 4 are expanded by the fluid pressure, but are locked by undivided rings 6 which are pressed axially by a wedge ring 7 expanded by the fluid pressure. The engaging surfaces of the rings 4 and 6 are bevelled so that, as the rings 4 expand further on account of wear, the rings 6 approach one another, and the flanges 30, 30<a>, or the ends of the ring 7, come in contact. The ends of the rings 4 are prevented from catching in the ports by a joint plate 13, Fig. 4, attached to one end of each ring, and formed with a slot 18 in which a lug or pin 24 on the other end of the ring engages. The rings 4 are grooved as shown at 12, Fig. 1, so that, if the edge of a ring catches in a port, it will break off.
