Title: Improvements in filtering apparatus
IPC: B01D29/00
Filed: 1922-01-04
Abstract: 195,738. Thermal Industrial & Chemical (T.I.C.) Research Co., Ltd., and Morgan, J. S. Jan. 4, 1922. Leaf filters.-Filter elements C, comprising corrugated or like plates covered with cloth, are connected by a hollow header E and pipe F to suction and pressure means. The header E is secured to a cross-bar H connected by guide-bars I to an upper bar K by means of which the elements C can be raised or lowered in the casing A. Filtration takes place under suction while the elements are immersed in slurry or other material under treatment in the lower part of the casing. When cakes have formed, the elements are raised into the upper part of the casing which contains air, steam or heated vapour under pressure. The suction is continued to draw in this vapour which thus dries the cake. The pipe F is then connected to a source of pressure and gas or vapour is forced outward to loosen the cakes. As the filter elements are lowered solid matter is detached therefrom by pivoted scrapers L which normally lie horizontal to form a tray on which the detached matter collects. Further downward movement of the guides I causes the tray to tilt and thus discharge the collected matter into a hcpper at the side.

Abstract: 326,589. Thompson Bros. (Bilston), Ltd., Thompson, F. S., Thompson, H. J., and Meredith, J. W. Jan. 4, 1929. Direct air - pressure apparatus, automatic; valves for pressure fluid, actuation and arrangement of.-In a means for raising a liquid by air pressure, two compartments A and B have similar fittings comprising feed pipes C, E, delivery pipes G, J, and vent pipes L, M, closed by valves N, P, attached to floats Q, R. The air is delivered by the pipe W to the two valve seats S, T which are closed by the ball valve V. With the valve in the position shown, the air enters compartment B and forces the liquid through pipe J until the level falls below the opening of the pipe, when the air escapes and the pressure in the compartment falls, opening the valve P. A pressure exists in compartment A, which is full of liquid, due to the head in the storage tank, and this pressure lift valve V which seats on the seat T. Compartment A is now emptied while compartment B fills. In a modification, a finger piece attached to a diaphragm is arranged in each compartment, and on being emptied air pressure acts on the diaphragm and the finger piece removes the valve V from its seat.

Press tools are located at either end of the stator and they are advanced until stops 22e on ring sections 22 abut end faces 10a of the stator. The axially extending parts 22a of the ring sections are a floating fit on the press tool body 15 and surfaces 22d thereon are tapered, so that as they enter the gap between the end turns and the stator housing ends, they move radially inwardly against springs 34 and are guided by pins 33. A force transmission element 14 is then moved axially against springs 28 to drive bolts 32 into abutment with the press rams 21. Wedge sections 32a on the bolts engage corresponding surfaces on the rams and drive them against the end turns to complete their shaping. As the press tool is withdrawn, springs 26 move the rams inwardly and the springs 34 move the ring sections 22 progressively outwardly as the tapered surfaces 22d thereon slide along the stator housing ends, thereby releasing the shaped end turns.

Title: Improvements in and relating to electric arc lamps
IPC: H05B31/30
Filed: 1934-01-04
Abstract: 436,203. Arc lamps. SPERRY GYROSCOPE CO., Ltd., Great West Road, Brentford, Middlesex, and THOMAS, H. L., 63, Iffley Road, Hammersmith, London. Jan. 4, 1934, No. 342. [Class 39 (i)] To shorten the time required to strike the arc in lamps of the type in which the position of the negative electrode is automatically controlled according to the voltage across the arc by means of a pair of pawls intermittently operated so as to engage oppositely disposed ratchet wheels on a spindle driving the electrode holder and serving respectively to advance and retract the negative electrode, one of the pawls is adapted when the current is switched on to actuate a linkwork which translates the negative electrode bodily towards the positive electrode to strike the arc. Preferably, the backward feeding pawl is formed with a projection which engages the linkwork when the arc is not burning. Figs. 1 and 2 show the invention applied to the arc lamp described in Specification 358,542. The feed screw 72 of the negative electrode is fed through gear-wheels 80, 81 by the spindle 82 which carries opposed ratchet wheels 83, 84 with which two pawls 85, 86 are adapted respectively to engage. A reciprocating motion is imparted to the pawls by a motor-driven disc 25, Fig. 2, with a crank-pin 26. A guide-member 90, controlled by the solenoid 93 in parallel with the arc, determines the engagement of the pawls. When the supply is switched on, the projection 95 on the fully-extended pawl 86 (dotted position) engages one end of a link mechanism ending in the cupshaped member 98, which advances the feedscrew and brings the electrodes into contact. When the arc is struck, the voltage across the electrodes falls and the pawl 86 returns to its normal position, the working of the lamp being then as described in Specification 358,542. In a modification, shown in Fig. 5, the negative electrode is fed forward by rollers actuated by a feed shaft 105 through a universal joint 109. The spindle 82 slides in a recess in the end of the shaft 105, but rotates it through a pin and slot connection. As before, a projection on the pawl 86 is adapted to actuate the linkwork 96, 101 ... 104, the member 104 engaging the end 108 of shaft 105 through a pin and slot connection. The shaft 105 is raised and tilts the whole electrode holder about the pivot 100, bringing the electrodes into contact.
