Abstract: 411,879. Subaqueous audible - signalling apparatus ; acoustic reflectors. MARCONI INTERNATIONAL MARINE COMMUNICATION CO., Ltd., Electra House, Victoria Embankment, and HINTON, N. P., 57, Broughton Avenue, Finchley, both in London. Dec. 15, 1932, No. 35619. [Classes 13 and 118 (ii).] A pressure wave transmitter or receiver, more particularly for use in echo sounding, subaqueous signalling systems, and for detecting the presence of underwater bodies, such as icebergs, comprises in combination a magnetostrictive vibrator whose moving face area is such that at the working frequency substantially spherical radiation occurs and parabolic reflecting means whose focus is located substantially at the centre of said moving face area. As shown, a combined magnetostrictive transmitter and receiver unit 1 constructed as described in Specification 402,123 and comprising a bar-shaped magnetostrictive body 2 adapted to vibrate longitudinally at its fundamental frequency is mounted within a reflector 3, which may be a gunmetal casting. This reflector is of a shape obtained by dividing a hollow paraboloid into two halves and separating these by a horizontal distance substantially equal to the length of the bar 2, the curved surfaces 4, 5 having their foci located at the points 6, 7 which constitute the centres of the end faces of the body 2. The reflector is formed with a spigoted flange 12 for attachment by means of studs 13 and nuts 14 to an adaptor 15 riveted to the hull plating 16, a gasket 17 ensuring a watertight joint. The adaptor enables the unit to be positioned horizontally at a part of the ship's bottom which is sloping. The unit 1 is mounted by bolts 19 from the upwardly extending portion 18 of the reflector which is filled with paraffin wax &c. 24. An air drum 25 is provided as shown in order to exclude bilge water from the rear of the reflector and the cable 23 from the unit 1 is led out through a stuffing box 21 and gland 22 and through a conduit 28 secured to the drum 25. An air pipe 29 communicates with the interior of the reflector at the highest point within the reflector to which water has access in order that the reflector may be completely filled with water when the apparatus is in use. According to a modification, the portion 18 may be prolonged to form a chamber within which the unit 1 can be withdrawn from its operative position, the prolonged portion being split horizontally and a gate valve interposed between the two sections so that the upper section can be removed for inspection of the unit after the latter has been withdrawn into the upper section and the gate valve closed. Specification 402,830 also is referred to.

Title: Improvements in steam generating plant
IPC: F01K3/00
Filed: 1929-11-23
Abstract: 335,812. Kraftanlagen Akt.-Ges. Nov. 23, 1928, [Convention date]. Feedwater, supplying. - In a supply plant containing a hotwater storage reservoir 5, a separating chamber 12 is arranged between the storage reservoir and the feed pump 13 and above the feed pomp to prevent the generation of steam in the feed pipe line. Gases and vapour are discharged from the chamber 12 through nozzles 17, Fig. 1, under the control of a valve 18, which opens when a certain pressure is exceeded in the chamber, and the discharged gases and vapour serve to heat the incoming feed in a heater 15. A float-operated valve 19 maintains a constant water level in the chamber. A valve 8 in the water supply pipe 11 is controlled by the pressure in the steam supply pipe 9. The pump 7, Fig. 2, discharges the feed water into the upper part of the storage reservoir through a distributor 20 to condense surplus steam. The separating, chamber, in this modification, is arranged well above the storage reservoir and the gas discharge pipe 16 is fitted with a valve 21 so operated by a float 12 in the chamber that the valve is closed when the water level in the chamber rises. In a further modification, valves in the water supply and gas discharge pipes of the separating chamber are operated by diaphragms acted upon on one side by the vapour pressure in the chamber and on the other side by the saturation pressure of the steam given off from the feedwater in a separate receptacle in order to maintain a definite pressure drop between the storage vessel and the separating chamber.

Title: Improvements in steering gears for motor vehicles
IPC: B62D7/22
Filed: 1930-11-29
Abstract: 349,420. Motor vehicle steering-gear. BœLOW, A., 21, Derfflingerstrasse, Stettin, Germany. Nov. 29, 1930, No. 36001. [Class 79 (v).] In motor vehicle steering-gear of the kind having a spring coupling between the worm gear and the rocker shaft, the springs of the coupling are made to act on the rocker shaft through the medium of levers mounted on the worm wheel. In the construction shown the worm wheel a carries levers d pivoted at o and acted upon by springs c mounted on pins b fixed to the worm wheel. The levers act on lugs i fixed to the rocker-shaft g and their ends f bear against the shaft and act as brakes so as to retard relative movement between the worm wheel and the shaft. The steering movements of the worm wheel are imparted to the shaft g by the springs and levers without any material compression of the springs. Reaction of the road wheels through the drag link m and rocker arm h is transmitted by the lugs i to the levers and absorbed by the springs. The outward movement of the levers is limited by the pins b.

Abstract: 395,599. Glass manufacture. GLASHUTTENWERKE VORM. J. SCHREIBER & NEFFEN, 22, Leichetnsteinstrasse, Vienna. Dec. 21, 1932, No. 36219. Convention date, Nov. 9. [Class 56.] Relates to a process and apparatus for the formation by pressing of flashed glassware, of the kind described in Specifications 355,887 and 355,899, which shows different colours according to the angle at which it is inspected. According to the invention, a charge of glass is pressed in a mould partly to its finished shape, next a charge of glass of another colour is placed in the mould, and finally the combined glasses are pressed to form the finished article. The glasses that compose the article are so chosen that the outer layer is partly or wholly transparent to the colour of the inner layer, while the inner layer is opaque to the colour of the outer layer. A press for carrying out the invention comprises a plunger 4, Fig. 1, which has in its undersurface an annular recess in which a ring 5 is housed. The plunger 4 is kept in an elevated position by a weight 13, and the ring 5 is kept in its recess by a comparatively light weight 9. In use, the weight 9 is lifted so that the ring 5 descends into and rests on the bottom of the mould 1. A quantity of molten glass is placed in the ring which serves as a measure, the ring is then raised and the weight 13 is lifted so that the plunger 4 descends and presses the glass in the mould. The plunger 4 is of smaller diameter than the mould, so that the glass is formed into a parison 15, Fig. 2, having a thick rim 16 that retains heat for a relatively long time. A second charge of glass, 17, is then placed in the parison 15, and pressing is completed in the usual way by means of a plunger of the normal size. The heat retained by the thick rim 16 allows the outer glass 15 to spread to the edge of the mould.
