Title: Improvements in or relating to Wireless Telegraph, Telephone, or Submarine Sound Signalling Systems.
IPC: H04L15/26
Filed: 1913-02-06
Granted: 1914-05-06
Abstract: 3103. Radio Signal Co., Shephard, W. H., and McKechnie, A. E. Feb. 6. Subaqueous sound signals.-Wireless calling- apparatus of the kind described in Specifications 11,479/12, 31,743/12, and 22,036/12, [all in Class 40 (v), Wireless signalling &c.], combined in the manner shown in the Figures, is stated to be applicable for submarine sound signalling. A relay A in the receiving-circuit intermittently closes the circuit of a lamp A<5> controlling a mercury switch a<5> as described in Specification 22,036/12. The switch a<5> opens the circuit of a magnet B, which releases a weighted member B<1>, as described in Specification 11,479/12, so as to close the circuit of an alarm bell B<2> and of a magnet B<3>, which releases an automatic code transmitter C, described in Specification 21,743/12, and adapted to close intermittently the circuit of a relay D controlling the transmitting-circuit so as to transmit a prearranged signal indicating that the call has been received. When the operator removes the receiver, the rise of the hook E<1> (1) returns the weighted member B' to its normal position, (2) opens contact c<Î> in the circuit of the transmitting-relay D, (3) closes contact a<Î> so as to short-circuit the relay A, and (4) rewinds the clock-work driving the code-transmitter C.

Title: Improvements in Arc Light Electrodes.
IPC: H05B31/06
Filed: 1913-03-25
Granted: 1913-10-09
Abstract: 7108. Siemens & Co., Geb. March 28, 1912, [Convention date]. Arc-lamp electrodes.--An alkali-metal salt of boro-fluoric, silico-fluoric, titano-fluoric, tantalofluoric, or zircono-fluoric acid, or a mixture of such salts, is incorporated in carbon electrodes, to produce steady luminous arcs. There may also be added an illuminating salt such as fluor spar and, for enclosed arcs, calcium tungstate, which becomes reduced to tungsten and facilitates re-striking of arcs. Addition of an alkali carbonate also increases the luminosity and protects globes from corrosion. When potassium boro-fluoride is used, which is decomposed by heat, the electrodes must not be baked during manufacture. Potassium titanofluoride and potassium silico-fluoride are stable when heated ; mixtures of these may be employed. Suitable proportions are-two parts of fluor spar, two of alkali carbonate, and ona of potassium silico-fluoride or titano-fluoride. The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a) states also that any complex fluorine compounds of trivalent or tetravalent elements may be used and may be in the form of barium or calcium salts ; this subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Granted: 1914-03-19
Abstract: 8749. Dianovszky, J., and Schlegel, O. A. April 14. Axial-flow type; balancing movivg parts; blades, vanes, etc.; cooling and heating parts; regulating.-Relates to a balanced axial - flow turbine in which the direction of flow of the steam is reversed in the second and third stages. The admission of steam to a central chamber 25, Fig. 2, is controlled by the device shown in Fig. 3, which comprises a piston 58 subjected underneath to the pressure of fluid delivered by a pump operated from the turbine shaft. The movements of this piston operate a valve 56 controlling the inlet port 54, the upper end of the piston-rod 57 bearing against one arm of a lever 60 fulcrumed on a pivot 61 and counterbalanced by a spring 64 attached to a slide 63 which is adjustable along the lever 60. The other arm of the lever 60 carries a scale 67, over which moves an indicator 68 carried by an arm 69 hung on the pivot 61. The arm 69 is adjustably connected to the lever 60 by a screw 76 and is provided with a slot 71 which receives the pin 72 of the rod of a valve 75 adapted to admit auxiliary steam through a pipe 78<a> to the chamber 48, Fig. 2, communicating with the third stage of the turbine. Steam admitted to the central chamber 25 passes to the first stage 37 of the turbine through slots 27<a> in a hand-controlled ring valve 26, Fig. 6, and through slots 29 in a flange 30 of the rotor, and exhausts through ports 44 in a nut 45 into the interior of the rotor 31, and so to the second stage, which in turn exhausts into the chamber 48 and thence into the third stage, the rotors of all three stages being secured to the shaft 22. The third stage admission may be controlled by a ring valve similar to the valve 26. The shell 11 of the cylinder may be encased in asbestos or the like 12, and a water-jacket 17 may be provided in each end-cover. The nuts 45, 45<a>, which clamp the rotor blade-rings 40 together, may be formed with concentric grooves and flanges engaging similar flanges and grooves in the casing endcovers. Oil may be forced into the bearings of the turbine by a device comprising a piston operated by fluid-pressure.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Unloading Devices especially applicable to Railway Wagons.
IPC: B65G67/00
Filed: 1914-02-02
Granted: 1915-02-02
Abstract: 2677. Spencer & Co., and Sawyer, F. E. Feb. 2. [Cognate Application, 16,338/14.] Rotary tipplers.-The clamping of the wagon in the tipping frame is effected by flexible members, or by rigid members in combination with flexible members, in such manner that the clamping-members first make contact with one of the sides of the wagon and, as the frame is rotated, gradually approach until they make contact with the other side. In the form shown in Fig. 2, the wagon is run on to a platform j in the tipping frame, which platform, under the control of the rollers m contacting with the cams l, moves sideways when the frame rotates so as to rest the wagon against the buffer o. As the tipping proceeds, the chains q engage the side and top edge of the wagon, the counterweighted lever s allows the chains to engage the other edge of the wagon when the frame has rotated through more than a right-angle, and a further tension is imparted by the lifting of the weights u. During the return movement, the clamps are automatically cleared from the wagon, and by the cams l the wagon is cleared from the buffer. In the form shown in Fig. 5, the chains pass over pulleys on clamping-bars 7 mounted on a pivot shaft capable of moving in guides 6 on the tipping frame. In this case, on the return movement the bars 7 are cleared from the wagon by the raising of the pivot shafts through the medium of links 3 operated by levers 1 which come against the stops 2, the action in other respects being as before. To allow for the recovery of the vehicle springs on the removal of the load, the buffer o may be made capable of sliding vertically.

Granted: 1915-03-25
Abstract: 8697. Madsen, E. April 16, 1913, [Convention date]. Water-waste preventers discharged by pistons; protectiny from frost.-Relates to apparatus of the kind comprising a cylinder and piston, and consists in placing it underground, and in an arrangement of valves whereby the water in the flush-pipe sinks to a frost-free depth after each flush. When a cord 12 is pulled, a valve 10 on the spindle 11 is closed and a valve 9 is opened. Water then flows from the service pipe 6 to a cylinder 4 and forces the piston 7 along the cylinder to the left-hand end. The water previously in front of the piston is forced up the pipe 5 and into the basin 1. At the end of the flush, the valve spindle 11 is operated by the weighted sector 13 and then the pressure of water in the pipe 5 forces the piston back, the water in the narrow end of the cylinder passing by way of the pipe 8 to the other end. The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a) describes a construction in which the cylinder is of uniform bore and the arrangement of valves is slightly different. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

The back of the film may be provided with additional markings to enable the film to be positioned by bringing these markings opposite the inspection aperture h, or an additional inspection aperture n may be provided and a film with ordinary markings used. A circular indicator may be provided in connexion with the winding-handle for use in positioning the film. The mask may be in the form of a slide inserted into the camera through a lighttrapped slot. The view-finder may be provided with markings to indicate the restriction of the film area when the mask is in use. The invention may be applied to box cameras, the mask being engaged in a slot at one side and sprung into position at the other side, or a mask sliding through a slot in the side of the camera being used.
