Title: Improvements in or relating to apparatus for recording data magnetically
IPC: A47G19/26
Filed: 1951-03-12
Abstract: 679,603. Statistical apparatus. NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO. March 12, 1951 [March 18, 1950], No. 5875/51. Class 106 (i). Apparatus for recording data magnetically on record material comprises a plurality of permanent magnets and means for producing relative movement between the record material and selected ones or all of the magnets to produce the desired record. In one arrangement, Fig. 3, a plate 40 of non-magnetic material has a hole bored in it in each position corresponding with a possible data-position on the record material. Headed cylindrical permanent magnets 41 are inserted into the holes corresponding with the data to be recorded and are held in the plate frictionally or by a further plate (not shown). The record material is fed by rollers 46, 47, which co-operate with spring- loaded rollers 48, 49, on to a non-magnetic support 50 guided for vertical movement. The support 50 is raised by a cam 55 to produce the required record. The magnets preferably have bifurcated lower ends each portion being shaped to produce a rectangular magnetized area and are so magnetized that the two portions of the bifurcation are of opposite polarity. Since the magnets may be set in different angular positions, it is possible to represent a wide range of data. Alternatively, the magnets may have unbifurcated ends and be magnetized longitudinally. In another arrangement, Fig. 1, it is possible to select one magnet of each row for effective operation by setting a lever 26 geared to a rack 28 carrying a sprung plunger 29 which moves over the magnets 20. The latter are mounted in stationary plates 21, 22 and urged upwardly by springs. When a record is required, a toggle linkage is operated to depress a plate 30 which, by engaging all of the plungers 29, depresses the selected magnets into engagement with the record material 36.

Title: An improved method of and apparatus for forming glass hollow-ware
IPC: C03B9/24
Filed: 1941-05-19
Abstract: 547,611. Glass manufacture. McNISH, A. F., and MONCRIEFF, Ltd., J. May 19, 1941, No. 6393. [Class 56] A method of making a thin hollow glass article, such as an electric lamp bulb, consists in gathering a charge of glass by suction into a mould open at its lower end, forming an indent of small diameter in the top of the charge of glass, and blowing the core of the charge in a finishing mould while 'the skin of the charge is still held in the gathering mould by suction. A gathering head, of which one or more may be fitted to a suitable forming machine of known type, comprises a hollow 'spindle 7 rotatable in an outer sleeve 9 having pipes 10, 11 fitted thereto. The lower end of the spindle carries a two-part gathering mould consisting of an inner part 16 and a cap 17, the crown of the inner part being formed with a central hole 18 in line with an axial passage in the spindle in which a pin 20 slides. The hole 18 is connected with a passage 13 that registers with the pipe 10, and the pipe 11 registers with a passage 14 connected to the joint between the mould parts 16, 17. In operation, the spindle 7 preferably is rotated while the head is being dipped into the glass in a forehearth 27, in order to assist, the circulation of the glass in the forehearth. A charge of glass is sucked into the mould 16, 17, the pin 20 being lowered so that it projects into the mould cavity. Suction is applied to the mould through the passages 13, 14, both of the pipes 10, 11 being connected to the suction pump. The suction is maintained while the head is lifted, and the trailing string of glass is severed in the usual way by a shear blade which is moved across the bottom of the mould. The rotation of the spindle causes the glass to be severed by a circumferential cut. The blade is allowed to remain in position below the mould to support the charge of glass, while the pin 20 is raised and the pipe 10 is connected to a supply of compressed air, so that the air enters the glass charge by the indentation left by the pin and compacts the glass. Next, the blade is removed to permit the charge to elongate, suction being maintained through the pipe 11 to hold the charge firmly in the mould. Finally, the elongating charge is enclosed in a finishing mould and blown to shape, the spindle being rotated during blowing. The finished article is ejected from the head by cutting off suction from the pipe 11, and, if necessary, applying compressed air through the pipe 11. Specification 547,612 is referred to.

Abstract: 1,141,923. Trueing grinding wheels. LEAR SIEGLER Inc. 15 Feb., 1966 [24 May, 1965], No. 6546/66. Heading B3D. A wheel trimmer for a gear grinding machine comprising an adjustable wheel support 12, a table 26 reciprocable adjacent the wheel support, a rotary gear support means 20 for mounting a work gear 18 with its axis parallel to the direction of reciprocation of the table, and a shaft 30 for mounting the wheel trimmer on the table for reciprocation therewith adjacent the wheel support and for angular movement about the axis of the gear support, comprises a first diamond 60 movable in a concavely curved path relative to the grinding wheel to trim a side of the wheel, and a second diamond 62 movable in a convexly curved path for trimming the edge of the wheel. The grinding wheel 24 is carried by a slide 14 vertically adjustable on a column 12 which is adjustable about a vertical axis to adjust the plane of the grinding wheel to the helix angle of the gear. The gear 18, which is to have teeth of circular arc Novacoff form, is mounted on a shaft 20 which isrotatable in accordance with the helix of the gear by a lead screw 22 during reciprocation of the table 26. The shaft 30 for the trimmer is mounted between stocks 32, 34 on the table 26 and is connected by a driver 36 through an index mechanism 50 to a base roll 44 connected by tapes 40, 42 to a slide 38 engaging a sine bar 48 whereby movement of the table effects rotation of the shaft in accordance with the helix of the gear. The shaft 30 carries blocks pivotally supporting arms 56, 57 which are manually rockable about the axes of the pivots by means of knobs 58, 59 and carry holders 61, 63 for diamonds 60, 62. The diamond 60 is carried below the axis of its pivot so that when rocked it forms a convex contour on the grinding wheel, whereas the diamond 62 is carried on the opposite side of its axis so that when rocked it forms a concave contour on the grinding wheel. The index mechanism 50 has a single notch 68, Fig. 3, and diametrically opposite, a group of notches 70, 72, 74. When a plunger 66 is engaged in notch 68 and the diamond 60 is rocked by rotation of the knob 58 as the trimmer is moved in a helical path during traverse of the table, the diamond forms a convex profile on the periphery of the wheel. When the plunger is engaged with one or other of the notches 70, 74, the diamond 62 is in operative position and, when rocked by means of the knob 59, forms concave profiles on the sides of the grinding wheel. The trimmer may incorporate stops for limiting the rocking movement of the arms 56, 57 which may also be adjustable axially of the shaft 30 to determine the thickness of the grinding wheel profile. The diamond holders may be normal to the plane of the grinding wheel and the trimmer may have one diamond for forming the convex profile and a separate diamond for each concave profile.
