Title: Strata reinforcing dowel members
IPC: E21D21/00
Filed: 1973-06-05
Abstract: 1435126 Laminates COAL INDUSTRY (PATENTS) Ltd 9 May 1974 [5 June 1973] 26676/73 Heading B5N [Also in Division F2] A strata reinforcing dowel member of laminated form comprises an outer layer or layers of a base material to which is bonded at least one lamina of a filler or a strengthening material. A "filler material" is defined as meaning a material which is of relatively lower tensile strength than the base material which in conjunction with the base material gives the dowel member its transverse crosssectional dimension and which in use, serves to transmit the strength of the base material to surrounding strata without detracting from the overall strength of the dowel member. A "stengthening material" is defined as being a material which is relatively stronger than the base material which provides strength to the dowel member. In one embodiment, the base material is of relatively high tensile strength, e.g. steel and the lamina is of the filler material, e.g. wood. In an alternative embodiment, the lamina is of the strengthening material, e.g. steel or a dispersion of glass fibres in a resin matrix and the base material comprises a relatively weaker material, e.g. wood. The completed dowel is preferably of circular crosssection and may be made by bonding the lamina between flat outer layers of the base material and shaping, e.g. by turning, the resultant composite assembly to the desired dimension. In an alternative method of fabrication, the outer layers of base material are of semicircular or substantially semi-circular crosssection, the lamina being bonded between the chorded surfaces of the outer layers. A channel may be provided either within the lamina or interadjacent the outer layers with a boundary surface of the lamina as the channel base.
Patent GB-268377-A (GB)
Abstract: 268,377. National Cash Register Co., (Assignees of Goldberg, M. M.). Nov. 21, 1925, [Convention date]. Transfer-mechanism.-A cash register totalizer moved into and out of engagement with its actuators is provided with transfer-mechanism tripped during actuation, and re-set to effect all necessary transfers simultaneously by the return of the totalizer to home position. Each numeral wheel 116 of the totalizer has a ratchet-wheel 140 provided with enlarged teeth 141 at the transfer points and engaged by a pawl 143 carried by a spring-controlled lever 142. Normally this lever is held by a shoulder 148 of a latch 149 pivoted at 150 and yoked at 151 to a lever 152 co-operating with the pawl of the next lower wheel. At transfer the passage of an enlarged tooth rocks the pawl outwardly to cause a stud 153 on the pawl to displace the lever 152 and so the latch 149. The pawl-carrying lever 142 of the higher wheel is thereby released and retracted by its spring, the pawl riding over the next oncoming tooth. If the higher wheel is at 9 this tooth will be a transfer tooth and will unlatch the transfer pawl lever of the next wheel and so on. The actual transfer movements of the pawls occur as the totalizer rocks back to its home position, for a fixed comb 164 is then engaged by all tripped levers 142 so as to restore these to cocked position and effect transfer. To hold the totalizer wheels against movement when the totalizer is in normal position, the studs 153 on the transfer pawls are blocked by arms 176, fixed to a shaft 175, so that the pawls cannot give way to the teeth of the ratchet wheels 150. Specifications 261,773 and 268,376 are referred to.

Title: Free rotor gyroscope
Inventor: DUNCAN DONALD BAKER
IPC: G01C19/28
Filed: 1960-08-05
Abstract: 1,021,650. Gyroscopic apparatus. NORTH AMERICAN AVIATION, Inc. Aug. 5, 1960, No. 27182/60. Heading G1C. The rotor 1, Fig. 1, of a gyroscope is supported for three degrees of angular freedom by a spherical gas bearing 3 formed between complementary surfaces of a ball support 12 and the rotor, the support being carried at the end of an arm 11 rigid with a case 13. To limit relative movement between the rotor 1 and the case 13 about axes normal to the rotor spin axis the support 12 carries a shaft 52 by means of bearings 53a, 53b, this shaft lying along the spin axis and carrying a stop 4 co-operating with a recess in the rotor. To keep the rotor centralized within the casing a flat side of the rotor forms electrical capacitances with pairs of plates 5a, 5b and 5c, 5d insulatedly mounted on the opposed flat wall of the casing, Fig. 3, each pair of plates being connected in a normally balanced electric circuit (Fig. 4 not shown). A difference in the spacing between the rotor and the two plates of a pair unbalances the circuit and a servo system ( not described) operates to restore the balance. The stop 4 prevents actual contact between the plates 5a, 5d and the rotor 1. The rotor is driven by windings 2 supplied with A.C., a magnetic ring 10 inducing eddy currents in a copper sleeve 9 attached to the rotor, the latter being non-magnetic. Constantly-acting and adjustable error-correcting torques may be applied to the rotor by four windings, only two shown in Fig. 1 viz. 6a and 6b, angularly spaced around a further electrically-conducting sleeve 8 fixed to the rotor, a further magnetic ring 7 being secured to the case 13. The four windings are connected in pairs in two similar circuits (Fig. 5, not shown). The gas bearing may be formed by gas supplied under pressure or, (as in Fig. 7, not shown) it may be self-generated by spinning of the rotor, the rotor having bands 39 separated by inclined wedge-shaped sectors 40. In a modified construction (Fig. 2, not shown) a spherical gas bearing 38 supports a rotor 31 within the case 34, a stop pin 35 rotatable in bearings 16a, 16b limiting relative movement between the rotor and case about axes normal to the spin axis.

Title: Improvements relating to railway vehicle bogies
Inventor: REES MORGAN WILLIAM TREHARNE
IPC: B61C15/04
Filed: 1963-07-10
Abstract: 1,068,043. Railway vehicle undercarriages. ASSOCIATED ELECTRICAL INDUSTRIES Ltd. June 26, 1964 [July 10. 1963], No. 27341/63. Heading B7L. A railway bogie has a frame 5, Fig. 1, supporting a vehicle body 6 and leading and trailing axles (only the leading axle 1 being shown) at least one (e.g. the axle 1) of which is driven by an axle-hung nose-suspended electric motor 2, Fig. 2, each axle casing 4 having secured thereto a fluid-pressure cylinder 7 having a piston, the rod 8 of which is connected to a roller 9 located between thrust plates 10 on the body, whereby when transference of weight from one axle to the other occurs during change of speed of the vehicle the load on the one axle can be increased to compensate for the weight transference. In the embodiment of Fig. 4 (not shown), one end of the cylinder (7) is closed at (11), connectible to a source of fluid-pressure at (16) and has an eye (12) universally bushed with rubber for connection to the bogie. The piston (13) is normally in the position shown under the urge of a spring (15) surrounding the hollow pistonrod (8). The latter has a lost-motion connection with a rod (8a) connected, by a universally rubber bushed eye (14) to the vehicle body. When the vehicle is moving at constant speed, the body can move relative to the bogie without movement of the piston. When acceleration, for example, occurs the motor current causes an electromagnetic valve to supply fluid to the cylinder and raise the rod 8, since the rod 8a will have risen above the leading axle, until a flange 17 on the rod 8 abuts the eye 14 and thereafter compensating action occurs. In another embodiment a double-acting piston and cylinder device is described, the piston being centralized normally by a pair of springs and only limited movement can occur between the rods 8 and 8a. This embodiment thus allows either an increase or reduction of weight on an axle. If desired, as one axle loading is increased by the fluid pressure device the other axle may have its load simultaneously reduced.

C. ; 65, Burnett Street, Providence, Rhode Island, U.S.A.) Sept. 12, 1930, No. 27345. Convention date, April 7. [Class 120 (ii).] Starting, stopping, and braking mechanism for machines for winding yarn, wire or other strand material into cops, cones, coils, or other packages, comprises idler pulleys 57 adapted to engage a belt 55 with the pulleys 40 of winding-units and each controlled by means adapted to maintain the drive or to release it automatically, and, upon release, to apply a brake shoe 90 to the driven pulley 40, resilient means, such as a spring 85, being arranged between the brake 90 and its actuating-means so as to be flexed when the brake is applied and thereby to delay the release of the brake to ensure smooth starting. The pulley 57 is journalled in an arm 70 so as to tend to move under the action of gravity to apply the belt, and is operated to release the belt by means of a lever 75 fast on a rock shaft 76 carrying the brake lever and provided with a cam-face 79 to engage the arm 70 when rocked by a stopping and starting lever 95 fast on the shaft 76. A detent 107 on a lever 108 engages a catch 106 on an arcuate lever 100 fast on the shaft 76, and normally holds the lever 95 in position to maintain the drive, and is released upon breakage or failure in supply of the yarn by a bail 115 normally engaged by the yarn and adapted to engage a wheel 120 on the cam shaft. The bail 115 is pivoted on a quadrant 110 integral with the lever 108 and serving as a track for the dogging-mechanism of the traverse frame 27. An adjustable stop 125 on the quadrant is engaged by the traverse frame when the package is fully wound and thereby releases the detent mechanism. A spring 88 attached to the lever 75 effects the raising of the pulley 57 and the application of the brake when the detent mechanism is released. The lever 95 is provided with an extension 101 to engage flanges on the expansion means of the winding-spindle and thereby release and engage the cop tube when stopping and starting; this arrangement, the detent mechanism and the automatic stopping mechanism are in accordance with the usual practice in yarn-winding machines.
