Granted: 1899-06-02
Abstract: 15,011. Lee, W. B., and Fisher, W. July 8. C o m b i ng - machines.-Relates to drawing - off apparatus. The fringe is gripped between two spherical nipping-surfaces C<2>, F<2> carried on vertical and inclined axes respectively. The lower nipper is rotated by gearing at about the same speed as the comb, and the upper nipper is driven from the lower one by reason of the projections C<6> on the lower nipper engaging with the surfaces F<7> on the upper one. The axle of the upper nipper is pressed downwards by a spring J, and, when the latter is released by turning the handle H<6>, the axle is forced upwards, so that the nipping-surfaces are disengaged, by means of a spring J<2>. The surface F<2> of the upper nipper may be made springy by having leather strips e let into grooves d therein, by being made of steel and having inclined sawcuts therein extending from the lower edge ; or the upper nipper may be made in sections, which are forced outwards by springs and guided by a rib on a bottom or guide plate engaging with grooves in the sections. To hold the fibres slightly after they have been released by the nipping-surfaces F', C<2> and while being transferred to the endless travelling leathers, a curved metal band, pressed downwards by springs, is caused to engage in a groove C<7> in the edge of the lower nipper C<2>.

Title: Improvements in Column Printing Telegraphic Instruments.
Inventor: HIGGINS FREDERICK HERBERT WILL
Filed: 1899-03-22
Granted: 1900-03-03
Abstract: 6229. Higgins, F. H. W. March 22. Telegraphs.-Colour-printing telegraph receivers are arranged to work with Wheatstone transmitters sending alternating currents. The line currents are employed to operate a polarized double electromagnet 11, the armature 8 of which controls an escapement 6 on the type-wheel shaft 5, and a non-polarized magnet the armature of which is only released on the stoppage of the current to effect the printing. Two spring motors 4 and 27 are shown, but these may be replaced by weight motors, or one of them 27 by an electromagnet in a local circuit. The type-wheel shaft 5 is square, to allow the type-wheel to traverse it, but at the same time to rotate with it. The traversing of the type-wheel is produced by the action of a pawl 35 operated by the printing-lever. The pawl 35 acts on a ratchet-wheel 36 carried by the fast-pitched screw shaft 37, the nut of which carries an engagement for the type-wheel, a bracket for the inking-wheel, and a pointer moving over a graduated scale. The type-wheel is brought to its zero position to begin a new line by means of a pin 49 on the shaft 5 engaging a stop 50 on the link 51, when a spacing-key is depressed at the transmitter ; this releases the spring motor, and causes the shaft 37 to run back. The shaft 37 is also provided with a cam arrangement for striking a warning bell at any desired position. A second pin 62 is placed on the shaft 5 for engaging with a tripping-device in the paper-feed mechanism ; this acts through rods 63 and 67 on the escapement 69, allowing a ratchet-wheel 71 to make one revolution. The printing-lever also is provided with winding-up mechanism for the paper feed, tripping-devices for the release and to prevent overwinding being described. The Provisional Specification refers to Specifications No. 2128, A.D. 1887, and No. 25,644, A.D. 1896, for similarity of details.

Abstract: 7314. Benseler, H., Kahle, G., Henjes, T., and Beissner, L. April 7. Traps for catching rats, mice, and other like vermin. Fig. 1 shows a trap for catching field mice. A bottle-shaped body d is provided with a passageway m formed by a spiral spring. The spring is secured in the mouth g of the trap and by a catch n, but the rear end m<1> is free. A transparent partition o is arranged immediately at the end of the passage-way, which allows light which enters through the perforated sliding door a to pass into this passage-way. The mouth g is inserted in the mouse-hole. When the mouse enters the passage and passes the point n, the part m<1> assumes an inclined position, and immediately the mouse leaves the passage the part m springs back and the partition o cuts off retreat. A wire support p serves for a rest for the trap, and also as a carrying-handle. When the trap is used for catching house mice &c., the mouth end is provided with a block having recesses for bait on each side of the passage-way. The mouse &c. endeavours to reach the bait by entering the trap. In modifications, the spiral spring m may be replaced by a flexible tube controlled by a spring or by an elastic flexible tube.

Title: Improvements in or connected with Moulds for Making Concrete Paving or Blocks.
Inventor: BAKER WILLIAM HENRY
Filed: 1899-04-18
Granted: 1900-03-24
Abstract: 8084. Baker, W. H. April 18. Casting.-Cement or concrete building-blocks or paving-slabs are cast in a mould formed with a perforated bottom a and detachable angle-iron sides b, c clamped to a rectangular frame d. Lugs or projections of the frame d enter recesses in a lower frame g, and pivoted latches fasten the frames together. The frame g is mounted loosely on an eccentric portion k of a shaft which is rotated by a handle for the purpose of rocking or agitating the mould. Levers carrying antifriction rollers are pivoted to the frame s under the sides of the frame d, and normally support the sides of the mould. When the filled mould is rocked, the frame d bumps on the rollers, and causes the cement to settle down evenly. A sheet of damp porous paper is placed on the perforated mould bottom before the material is placed in the mould. When the cement in the mould has set sufficiently, the supporting-lever at one side is turned back out of the way, the mould is reversed, a trolley with an inclined platform is run under the mould, the sides of the mould are unclamped, and the block or slab is gently received by the inclined platform.
