Title: Improvements in or relating to clockwork actuated valves and electric switches
IPC: F23Q9/02
Filed: 1925-08-18
Abstract: 261,466. Ebdon, E. E. Aug. 18, 1925. Clockwork actuaction. - A clockwork-actuated gas controller adaptable for controlling electric switches is actuated by tappets on a 24-hour dial which act directly to open the main cock or switch and indirectly through a compound lever mechanism to close the same. The Figure shows the device arranged to actuate main and bye-pass valves. The clock movement is detachably secured by nuts 6 to slotted arms 2 on the main casing which is of hard aluminium alloy and has a 24-hour dial 33 mounted on the winding arbor. The lighting tappet has a pin 37 and is mounted below the dial while the extinguishing tappet is arranged above the dial. The dial and tappets are held against the shoulder on the winding arbor by a forked spring held in position by a screw 40 and by engagement with a groove on the arbor and compressed by a nut 42. The winding ratchet and pawl are protected by a safety cover adapted to prevent the displacement of the pawl and pawl spring screws. The lighting tappet is adapted to engage a projection 24 on a plate 19 secured to the main cock while the extinguishing tappet engages a lever 27 pivoted at 26 to the casing and arranged to engage a second lever 30 pivoted at 29 and provided with a pin 32 adapted to engage the projection 24 and return the main valve to its closed position. The time-indicating arm 50 is hinged to the casing so that it may be moved out of position to give access to the main cock. The escape platform of the clock movement may be arranged at the front of the movement, the front plate being cut away and fitted with a removable cover so that all adjustments without exception may be effected from the front of the device. When adapted for actuating electric switches the plate 19 is carried by a pillar on a washer screwed over the plug opening and has an arm coupled to the switch.

Filed: 1939-07-18
Abstract: 531,338. Cables : cable joints. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES, Ltd. July 18, 1939, No. 20878. Convention date, July 20, 1938. [Classes 36 and 38 (i)] A barrier or a termination is formed in an impregnated single or multi-core cable by introducing a solvent, such as benzene, to dissolve impregnant in the lower fluid-resistance paths of the section of the cable, removing the solvent and dissolved impregnant, introducing a polymerizable material such as styrene, polymerizing the material to bar said lower fluidresistance paths, and then repeating the process to bar the higher fluid-resistance paths. A joint may be formed by building up insulation of impregnated fibrous material such as paper, filling interstices with fibrous material, disposing a sleeve around the insulation and successively treating the lower and high fluid resistance paths as above. Tappings 6, 7 may be inserted in the cable sheath, which may be heated between the tappings, and solvent is admitted from container 13 and drawn through to the tapping 7 by pump 15 to remove impregnant from paths of low resistance ; when pure solvent is received in trap 14, the supply is stopped, solvent is boiled out of the section of the cable under treatment, styrene is drawn into said section, and the cable sheath is heated to about 120‹C. to polymerize the styrene, the process then being repeated to seal paths of high resistance, using tappings 8, 9, and afterwards, if necessary, tappings 10, 11. In another method, solvent is applied through a tapping between the tappings 6, 7 and withdrawn through tappings 6, 7, simultaneously.

[Class 7 (iii).] A constant proportion of fuel to air at all engine speeds, and without the use of any moving parts, is obtained by the employment of a simple unobstructed orifice disposed substantially at fuel level and formed in a wall or diaphragm separating a relatively .large fuel chamber from the mixing chamber, the edge of the orifice being very thin in order to diminish the resistance to fuel flow therethrough. The fuel chamber 3, Fig. 2, communicates with a float chamber 1 through a passage 6, and with the mixing chamber 4 through the thin-edged orifice 12 formed by a conical depression 12b in the lower surface of the dividing wall. A cover 13 is held in place by a bolt 17 by rotating the head 16 of which the float chamber may be drained through clearance 18 and a groove 19 before removing the cover. In a modified construction, Fig. 4, the orifice 25 is formed in a removable diaphragm 21 screwed into the carburetter casing. Fuel enters the float chamber through a pipe 8, and a part 26 which may be adjusted to vary the fuel level. In both forms, the fuel in the chamber 3 is substantially at rest.

Abstract: 441,620. Circular looms. BRITISH CELANESE, Ltd., 22, Hanover Square, London, and HALE, F. C., and YEADON, R., c/o British Celanese, Ltd., Spondon, near Derby. July 23, 1934, No. 21466. [Class 142 (ii)] The rotatable vane wheels 20, which pass between the warp threads into engagement with the shuttles are mounted on shafts 25, each driven by helical gears 30, 31 and a flexible shaft 27 running in a sheath 28 and terminating in a spindle 29 carrying the gear 31 and in a spindle 46. The shuttles may be stationary and the warp rotating, or, as shown, the shuttles may rotate, each shaft 25 being supported by brackets 26 adjustably bolted to a ring 19, which is rotatably supported by grooved pulleys 36 engaging an annular lip 37 and is driven by spur gearing, a vertical shaft 40, and belt gearing, whereby the shuttles are carried round the loom. Teeth on a fixed ring 43 concentric with the ring 19 engage teeth on the spindle 46 whereby the vane wheels are rotated. The supporting ring, the brackets and shuttles may be of light aluminium alloy. A casing 32, covering the gears 30, 31 bears on the shaft 25 and is prevented from turning by an extension 33 secured to a tie bar connecting the brackets 26. Oil introduced into the casing is prevented from escaping by absorbent washers. The shaft 25 is provided with collars for countering longitudinal thrust. Each shuttle has flanged rollers 21 engaged by the wheels 20 and a roller 33 engaging a circular race 24. If warp failure or breakage occurs, relative rotation between the shuttle supporting ring and the warps may be brought to an end by means of a feeler on each shuttle. Thus a brake may be applied to the shuttle supporting ring and the drive may be disconnected as described in Specifications 441,617 and 441,618. Where the shuttles are normally stationary, they may be rotated under the control of the feeler. Shedding may be effected by means of a reed with eyed dents and a co-operating shedding wheel. Specification 413,376 also is referred to. According to the Provisional Specification, the bearing for the vane wheel shaft is pivotally mounted on a bar and may be clamped thereto.
