Title: Improved means for converting wrought iron blooms into round bars
IPC: B21J9/12
Filed: 1945-08-24
Abstract: 597,748. Making rods. BUTTERLEY CO., Ltd., and PODD, P. A. Aug. 24, 1945, No. 21790. [Classes 83 (ii) and 83 (iv)] Forginy machines; rolling.-A machine for converting a wrought iron bloom into a round bar comprises a temporary support for the bloom located between two vertical tables, one of which is horizontally reciprocated in its own plane while the other is advanced to compress the bloom and means for applying end pressure to the bar after the temporary support has been withdrawn. The temporary support a for the bloom is vertically movable in a carriage b supported by wheels c on a carrier d which rides on a frame e which also carries two end-closure cylinders f. One of the vertical tables q is reciprocated horizontally in its own plane by a crank and connecting rod and is supported at its rear by a series of rollers x. The other table o is supported on rollers y and is advanced towards the table q by steam or hydraulic cylinders r at a rate controlled by screws s which are rotated by a chain from the shaft of the crank. In operation, a bloom is placed on the support a, the table o is advanced to squeeze the bloom and at the same time the table q is reciprocated to roll the bloom into bar form. The carriage b moves freely between the tables, following the reciprocations of the table q, whilst the carrier d is coupled to the table o by cable and pulley mechanism so that the carriage b and support a move towards the table q at half the speed of the table o. When the table o has advanced a predetermined distance, a plunger m is allowed to rise, this, in turn, permitting the support a to move down wards clear of the tables o and q against the action of a counterweight g. Further movement of the table o allows a lever 13 to turn about its fulcrum and release the frame e which is then moved by weights 10 to bring rams 15 in cylinders f beneath the bar being formed and opposite rams 2 located above the bar. Steam or hydraulic fluid is then admitted intermittently to the cylinders so that the ends of the bar are given a series of blows by the rams 2 and 15. When the table o recedes after a complete operation, the bar falls over on to a series of rollers which transport it to the finishing rolls.

Title: Improvements in or relating to apparatus for casting and handling blocks
IPC: B28B7/00
Filed: 1943-12-29
Abstract: 595,595. Casting concrete blocks. ATTERBURY, G. Dec. 29, 1943, No. 21797. [Class 87 (ii)] [Also in Group XXX] The mould is supported in a cradle and is raised out of the cradle by a lifting device which is so constructed that when the mould with its cast block has been removed from the cradle and lowered on to a support, and the sides and ends of the mould have been disconnected from each other, the sides and ends of the mould may be stripped outwardly and downwardly away from the block and disengaged from the mould bottom. As shown, rods 86, 104, which carry the mould sides, run down ramps 126, 109, to give the stripping movement. The mould comprises hollow sides 16, hollow ends 18 and a base comprising U-beams 40 and a plate 40<1>. The sides and ends are connected to each other by pivoted latches 54 and to the base by hooks 26, 27 which engage the beams 40. The hooks are held in position by levers 42, 43 urged by springs. The base carries a hollow core 36. Steam is injected into the hollow mould and core through pipes 66, 67, 68. The cradle comprises spaced vertical beams 28 connected by a transverse base platform 32 and transverse beams 37. Horizontal beams 30 are secured to the beams 28 and carry guide rails 31 which co-act with vertical guide rails 34 attached to the mould sides 16. When the mould is lowered into or drawn out of the cradle, brackets 33 on the ends 18 co-act with rails 35 on the cradle to align the mould. To the sides of the mould are pivoted lifting hooks 58 and to the ends are removably secured lifting rods 86. Operation:-When a block has been cast in the mould, the rods 86 are removed and a lifting appliance 14 is lowered from the position shown in Fig. 1 on to the mould, Lifting bars 104 on the appliance cam aside hooks 58, against springs 60, and the hooks then snap back into the position shown in Fig. 5. Rods 86 are then replaced and engaged with hooks 120 on the appliance. The appliance is then raised by means of hook 130, taking with it the mould and casting which are then deposited on the ground. The latches 54 are then disengaged, the locking levers 42 are moved to the left-hand (released) position, Fig. 5, and racks 94 which carry the bars 104 are moved away from the cast block by manual rotation of a pinion 98, taking the sides with them. As the bars 104 move away, the weight of the sides causes the bars to run down ramps 109, the hooks 26 being thus disengaged from the beams 40. Then the ends 18 are disengaged from the block by lowering hook 130, the weight of the ends causing rods 86 to ride down ramps 126, and hooks 27 being disengaged from beams 40. If the ends stick to the block, the rods 86 are pushed outwardly by means of a hand-operated linkage 136, 112, 116, 120. The rolls 86 may be cam-operated and permanently attached to the mould.

Abstract: 696,731. Universal joints. SOC. APPLI= CAZIONI GOMMA ANTIVIBRANTI S.A.G.A. SOC. PER AZIONI. Sept. 18, 1951 [Sept. 30, 1950], No. 21920/51. Class 80 (ii). In a coupling of the type in which a ring of rubber blocks is pre-compressed between alternate abutments on driving and driven members it is so arranged that the strain due to precompression at points remote from the coupling axis is not less than that at points nearest to the axis. In the embodiment shown the rubber blocks are compressed in two stages. In the first stage the adjacent ends of the blocks 1 are bonded to a member 2 the limbs of which are close together initially but which are forced into the position shown in Fig. 6 by wedge members 4. This applies a compression 2d, Fig. 4, to the outer edge e of the block, the compression falling to zero at the inner edge i. The members 4 are then moved radially inwards to the assembled position which further compresses the rubber by an equal amount 2a at all radial distances. It is so arranged that a+d=k/a.e/i Where k is not less than 1. If k is greater than 1 a bending moment is set up which opposes deflection of the blocks due to centrifugal force at high speeds. The members 4 serve as the abutment members and are provided with holes 4' for bolting to the coupling members. Specification 662,337. is referred to.

Title: Method of canning salmon and product resulting therefrom
IPC: A23B4/00
Filed: 1934-07-30
Abstract: In preparing salmon, particularly of low grade, for food by cleaning from inedible waste and packing the edible portion in cans or other containers which are subsequently sealed, free water is removed from the salmon and salmon oil is added thereto.  The fish is cleaned and the edible portion cooked and the backbone and skin are removed and the liquid separated.  The oil is extracted from this liquid and added to the containers to which also are added the cooked salmon meat and salmon oil extracted from the heads, fins, entrails and other waste portions.  Common salt or other seasoning is next added and the cans are sealed and heated to above the boiling point for about 90 minutes to sterilize and complete the cooking of the salmon. The waste products are treated to obtain the oil by boiling in a vat until substantially all the oil has passed into the liquid, separating the liquid from the solids, e.g. by a filter press, and extracting the oil from the liquid by centrifuging, heating, decanting, &c. and clarifying it by further heating or filtering or both.  The solid residue is dried to give a press cake which may be used as a fertilizer or a food for poultry and cattle.  Oil obtained from salmon of one grade may be added to salmon of another grade. The free water may be removed from the fish by methods other than cooking, e.g. by salting or by evaporation by exposure to the atmosphere in shallow trays.ALSO:The heads, fins, entrails and other waste products from salmon are boiled in a vat till substantially all the oil has passed into the liquid which is then separated from the solids, e.g. in a filter press, and the solids are dried giving a residue which may be used as a fertilizer or a food for cattle or poultry.

Title: Improvements in controls for electrically operated stoker mechanism for coal furnaces
IPC: F23N1/00
Filed: 1935-08-06
Abstract: 464,129. Electromagnetic switches and clockwork actuation of switches. McCABE, I. E. Aug. 6, 1935, No. 22178. [Class 38 (v)] [Also in Group XXXV] A furnace stoker motor SM, Fig. 1, is controlled by a room thermostat T through a relay R, an overriding control comprising a stack switch SS and delay switch A being provided to ensure that the furnace temperature does not fall below a minimum. The relay R has a fixed winding 27 connected to the supply and a movable winding 28 which carries a mercury switch L in the motor circuit. The thermostat T and mercury switch 20 of the delay switch A are connected in parallel with the windings 28 so that operation of either short circuits the winding to cause operation of the switch L, the delay switch A is operated by a motor which is connected across the supply circuit through the stack switch SS. The motor 4, Fig. 2, drives a spindle 11 carrying a fixed gear 15 and a loose mounted gear 14. The mercury switch 20 is mounted on a plate 18 which is loosely mounted in the spindle 11 and has a pin 21 carrying gears 28, 22 which engage the gears 14, 15 respectively. When the motor circuit is completed a pawl operated by the motor magnet engages the loose gear 14, fixing it, so that the gear drive results in the disc 18 carrying the switch 20 being rotated, the switch operating a predetermined time after initiation of rotation. If the fire has gone out so that the delay relay motor continues to operate, a switch 40 is tripped by a lever 56 after a predetermined amount of rotation, to de-energize the delay switch motor and relay R and shut down the installation until the switch 40 is reset manually. De-energization of the motor 4 causes the pawl to disengage the gear 14 so that the plate 18 and switch 20 move back to the open position determined by a stop 48 and lever 49. The lever 49 is in frictional engagement with the plate 18 so that the delay period may be varied. In a modification, day and night thermostats are provided and the particular one is selected by clock-operated switches. In this.form the clock motor replaces the motor 4 of the delay switch, the stack switch being in the circuit of an electromagnet which operates the pawl.
