Title: Improvements in and relating to Coin Actuated Mechanism for Delivering Golf Balls and the like.
Inventor: NORBURY PAUL FITZ GERALD
IPC: G07F11/22
Filed: 1913-08-07
Granted: 1914-07-16
Abstract: 18,020. Norbury, P. F. G. Aug. 7. Sale apparatus; delivery mechanism.-A golf ball or other spherical article is delivered at each operation from a vertical column 2 in a container 1 by means of reciprocating arms 3, 4 which .move in opposite directions. Having inserted the necessary coin or coins, the operator turns an external handle 15, thereby rotating a pinion 10 and reciprocating racks 6, 8 attached to the arms 3, 4 respectively. On releasing the handle, the parts are returned to the normal position by a spring, and the lowest ball passes by a shoot 26 to a delivery tray. Coin action, mechanical-connexion and multiple-coin.-The inserted coin couples a carrier 18 on a slotted sleeve 13, to which the handle 15 is fixed, to a slotted spindle 11 on which the pinion 10 is mounted. After half a revolution, the coin falls out or is forced out by a spring 25. A spring connected to the sleeve serves to return the parts. The carrier 18 is slotted to pass a curved stop 21, which prevents the return of the parts unless the coin has been discharged. To render the insertion of several coins necessary, the sleeve may be divided into a corresponding numberof parts each provided with a slot, all the coins except the last serving to couple the different parts of the sleeve together, the last coin coupling the sleeve to the spindle. The slots may also be arranged so that a single coin or several smaller coins of equivalent value may be inserted. By the use of a series of sleeves and a single operating- handle, the apparatus may be adapted to deliver balls of different values from separate containers. Diverting improper coins.-A spring-controlled flap 29 pivoted in the shoot 19 is normally in position to divert a coin to one side of the carrier 18. A coin of correct size, however, as it is pressed into the shoot, thrusts back the projecting arm of a lever 31, thereby throwing the flap into the position shown in dotted lines and opening the passage to the coin-carrier.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Photographic Apparatus and Processes for Producing Designs on Printing Surfaces.
Inventor: PILKINGTON HERBERT MORRIS
IPC: G03F7/22
Filed: 1913-03-20
Granted: 1914-03-20
Abstract: 5827. Pilkington, H. M. March 20. Enlarging, copying, and reducing.-In the production of designs on printing-surfaces, means are provided whereby a series of reproductions of a design may be produced all in exact relation to certain register marks, and whereby such reproductions may be each registered accurately with the other. The step and repeat copying or enlarging machine described in Specification 13,517/11 may be used. The sensitive-plate carrier is fitted with transparent register slips B, Fig. 1, at the four corners which overlap the sensitive plate when in the carrier. The register slips are of transparent material with opaque crosses 1, 2, 3, 4. These may be arranged horizontally or vertically or both on the slips. To set the carrier and the slips, an image of a cross is projected on to one of the register slips and brought to register on one of the outside crosses. The plate carrier is stepped horizontally and vertically and the register slips adjusted so that they lie horizontally and vertically. A screen is then placed in the carrier and the image of a design is projected on to the screen and adjusted so that the projected image of the design is in defined register relative to certain definite register marks on the strip B. If repeats of the design are required the design is projected so that the left-hand edge lies in alinement with two definite register marks on the left-hand side. The machine is then stepped vertically and horizontally to produce repeats. Note is taken of the degrees of stepping and also of those register marks on the right-hand side of the carrier which register with the right-hand ends of the group of designs projected. The screen is then replaced by a sensitive plate and the projected design or series of designs reproduced on the plate. The register marks B', Fig. 2, on the strip B to which the design or series of designs have been set are then produced on the plate by a local application of a small printing- light behind the marks. The register marks can be chosen outside the boundary of the design or set of designs if a margin round the designs is desired or if repeats of the series are to be spaced. The design or group of designs is then placed in exact position relatively to definite register marks which define the boundary of a rectangle within which the designs lie. Different sets of designs D, D', D', D' may be included in the series. These register marks B' may be utilized to repeat the plate several times on a stone by the process described in Specification 24,487/11, [Class 98 (ii), Photographic processes &c.]. The register slips can also be utilized for producing a series of plates from different units, such as from different component colour units, by repeating the successive series with reference to the same register marks on the slip.
