Patent GB-963011-A (GB)
IPC: B65B3/32
Filed: 1960-09-22
Abstract: 963,011. Packaging; filling containers. Y. MARCHADOUR. Sept. 22, 1960 [Sept. 23, 1959; Feb. 26, 1960; July 26, 1960], No. 32608/60. Headings B8C and B8T. [Also in Division F1] Paste-like or semi-liquid material is fed from a container 2 through a rotary valve 7 into a plunger pump 10, the valve being then rotated to allow the pump to discharge its contents through the valve into an empty container R. A shaft 12 operates the valve 7 through a cam 22 and the pump plunger 11 through a crank 15, the shaft 12 being rotated intermittently through a disengageable clutch key 62a which is operable to connect or disconnect the shaft from a continuously rotating sleeve 51 which drives a Geneva mechanism 70 operating a star wheel 75, Fig. 5, to feed the cams R into filling position. The shaft 12 also drives a second shaft 27 which intermittently drives a feed worm 4 in the container 2. Filling operation.-At the beginning of a filling operation, valve 7 is positioned as in Fig. 1 and the shaft 17 is stationary. The Geneva gear feeds a can R into contact with a lever 67, Fig. 5, which releases the clutch key 62 so that shaft 12 is clutched to the sleeve 51 for rotation. The plunger 11 is thereby driven on its suction stroke and shaft 27 is rotated so that worm 4 is driven until a pawl 36 is disengaged from a ratchet 37 by a stationary ramp 43a. The Geneva gear then moves the can R to the filling position, whereby lever 67 is released so that it declutches the shaft 12 from sleeve 51, thereby stopping piston 11 at the end of its suction stroke. The succeeding can then contacts lever 67 so that shaft 12 is again clutched to sleeve 51 and rotated whereby cam 23 rapidly moves valve 7 to its discharge position and the plunger 11 drives the material through the valve into the can R through a replaceable outlet nozzle 8 in the valve 7. The valve 7 is then returned to its original position and the Geneva gear then rotates another step to disengage shaft 12 and feed another empty can for a repetition of the process. The stroke of the pump is adjustable by adjusting the position of a block 19, Fig. 5, connecting a swinging lever 15 to member 21 attached to the piston 11. In Fig. 7 the feed worm is very short and its lower blade scrapes over the container outlet 5. In a modification, Fig. 10, the cans R are moved intermittently by a chain conveyer 87<SP>1</SP>, actuated by a pawl and ratchet 92, into position beneath plungers 106 which are operated by a camactuated bar 110 to compress the contents of each cam through a sheet 103.

Abstract: 775,538. Spring suspensions. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. Nov. 17, 1955 [Dec. 15, 1954], No. 32926/55. Class 108(2). A vehicle suspension system comprises a pair of longitudinally spaced wheel-support arms pivotally connected to a frame, a torsion bar spring rotatably mounted on the frame and connected between the wheel support arms to be subject to reverse torsional stresses due to similar stresses on the arms, and control mechanism on the frame adapted to act directly on the spring resiliently to maintain part of the spring in a predetermined position relative to the frame. As shown, front and rear wheels 12, 18 at each side of a vehicle frame 2 are carried respectively by upper and lower swing- ing arms 8, 10 and a swinging arm 16 which are sprung against the frame by a single torsion bar spring 24. A lever 30 is clamped substantially mid-way between the ends of the torsion bar between a pair of guide plates 32, 34 welded to a bracket 36 which is secured to a frame member 4. The lever 30 extends through a spring cage 46 located between the guide plates 32, 34 and bears, through a roller 60, against spring- loaded cups 56, 58 which are slidable in the cage. The spring loading of the cups is adjustable by means of end caps 66 and 68. The spring cage is secured in a predetermined angular position by means of bolts 80 projecting from blocks 74 welded to the cage and which project through arcuate slots 78 in the guide plates 32 and 34. The arrangement is such that the torsion bar may be preloaded to levelize the vehicle by angular adjustment of the spring cage and thus the arm 30, within limits allowed by the slots 78. The adjustment may be effected manually, directly, or remotely or automatically in dependence upon vehicle loading. Intermittent and instantaneous forces tending to produce pitching are counteracted by the springs 52 and 54 and by a telescopic shock absorber 88.

Title: Improvements in and relating to automatic control mechanism for filters and like apparatus
IPC: B01D37/04
Filed: 1949-12-24
Abstract: 674,198. Fluid-pressure servomotor-control systems. BELL BROS. (MANCHESTER 1927), Ltd., and MACKRELL, W. Dec. 15, 1950 [Dec. 24, 1949], No. 33038/49. Class 135. Mechanism for automatically controlling the rate of flow from a filter or the like whereby changes in the rate of flow are effected slowly comprises a pipe 1 leading from the filter to a discharge tank 2, and a main regulating valve in the pipe 1 operated by a hydraulic piston in a cylinder 3 under the control of a four-way pilot valve 4 movable in one direction against the action of a spring or weight by the movements of floats in the filter and the discharge tank respectively. The pilot valve 4 which is shown is a piston valve and when raised against the helical spring 5 and the weight of a lever 8 admits liquid to the underside of the hydraulic piston to close the main valve and allows liquid to drain from the top of the hydraulic piston. Under the action of the spring 5, the connections to the cylinder 3 are reversed and the main valve is opened. The pilot valve rod 6 is pivoted to the lever 8 at a point 7 near one end 9 which forms the fulcrum. A float 11 in the filter is connected to a rod 10 which passes through a hole in the other end of the lever and has a stop 14 at its lower end. When the liquid level in the filter is at the minimum 12, the stop 14 causes the lever 8 and the pilot valve 4 to be raised against the spring 5 so that the main valve is closed. Upward movement of the float 11 has no effect on the lever 8 once the stop 14 is clear of it. Liquid in the tank 2 passes over a weir 15 and its level is controlled by a float 16 having a rod 17 which pushes the lever 8 up to cause the main valve to close. The main valve may also be controlled by the liquid level in a further tank 20, a float 18 in which acts through a rod 19 on the lever 8 to cause the main valve to close when the level in the tank 20 reaches a predetermined value. In each case, the float acts positively on the lever 8 in the upward direction only.
