Title: Improvements in or relating to Railway Signalling.
IPC: B61L5/16
Filed: 1913-06-28
Granted: 1914-06-29
Abstract: 14,947. Sykes Interlocking Signal Co., W. R., Sykes, J. C., and Tarrant, R. W. June 28. Visual outdoor signals; slots, reversers, and like apparatus. - Relates to mechanism for operating railway signals by power, with electro - magnet control, and consists of a crank 14 coupled to the signal arm, a rotary disk 15 turning as one therewith, and a rotary member 16 loose on the shaft 11, worm-driven from an electric motor 18, preferably by reduction gearing, adapted to be clutched to the disk 15. The clutch mechanism consists of a series of pins 25 on the member 16, one of which contacts with a semicircular gudgeon pin 26 rotatably mounted on the disk 15 and mounted fast on an arm 28 carried by, or coupled to, the armature 29 of an electro-magnet 30 mounted on the disk. The armature 29 normally lies in contact with the pole-pieces 33. When the parallel circuits of the motor and magnet are closed in the signal cabin, the magnet holds the gudgeon 26 in contact with the pin 25, whereby the disk 15 is turned and the signal arm lowered. The motor circuit is broken by a quick-break switch consisting of a pair of spring tongues 34, 35 in the motor circuit, normally connected by a roller 36 carried by a lever 37. The roller is brought up by an arm 39 contacting with a pin 40 on the disk 15, and is then locked by a spring-pressed trigger-lever 41, Fig. 8, An arm 44 on the lever 41 contacts with an adjustable stud 45 when the signal is lowered, to allow the spring 43 suddenly to depress the roller 36 and break the circuit. The magnet may have a low-resistance winding in series with the motor, and a high-resistance winding which is energized to hold the signal off. When the magnet is de-energized, the counterweight turns the gudgeon 26 to allow the pin 25 to pass, whereupon the disk 15 returns. A dashpot 48 is provided to damp the return, the piston having a cup-leather 49 to offer the minimum resistance to the operation of the signal. Other damping-means, such as a centrifugal governor, may be employed. Spur gearing may replace the worm drive, in which case a ratchet may be employed to prevent reverse driving.

Abstract: 17,086. S i e m e n s Schuckertwerke. July 25,1912, [Convention date]. Arc lamps.-A device for regulating the light emitted by a lamp is constructed so that, in diminishing the light, first a resistance is inserted gradually into the arc circuit until the current reaches the minimum value at which the are will burn steadily without spoiling the shape of the electrode tips, and then, without further alteration of the current, a shutter is moved to cut off the light. In the arrangement shown, a switch arm 16 controls the series resistance 17 and also connects in shunt to the lamp, through a variable resistance 22, a solenoid 18, the core of which is connected by a cord passing over pulleys 21 to the shutter 12, hinged to a casing 11 enclosing the arc or the whole lamp. The shutter may alternatively be connected mechanically to the switch arm.
