Title: Improvements in or relating to speed governor mechanism
IPC: F02D9/00
Filed: 1938-08-26
Abstract: 518,622. Speed governors. KEMP, W. E., and PIERCE GOVERNOR CO. Aug. 26, 1938, No. 25147. [Class 57] [Also in Group XXXII] Fuel mixture flows from the carburetter 5 of an internal-combustion engine to the inlet manifold 10, through a bore 9 containing a throttle valve on a shaft 13. The position of the valve is regulated to maintain constant speed at varying loads, by a diaphragm 76 in a casing 26 the interior of which communicates through a passage 70 with the intake manifold 10, and is thus subject to the changes of vacuum therein. The diaphragm is open to atmosphere on its upper side, and carries cantilever leaf springs 46 the ends of which coact successively with roller &c. supports 77 or with adjacent springs. The motion.of the diaphragm is thus controlled, and this motion is communicated to the throttle valve through a roller 31 on an arm on the valve shaft, co-operating with a lever 62 adjustably connected to the diaphragm by a differential screw. A relative fall in the vacuum effect is experienced near the fully closed position of the throttle, and this may be offset by providing an auxiliary port or ports allowing restricted passage of mixture into the chamber 26 from the carburetter side of the valve at large throttle openings, this passage being gradually cut off at nearly closed positions, e.g., by a damper on the valve shaft. The springs are separated by spacers, and these parts may be held together by rivets extending into tubular bolts. In a modification, a single spring having a linear characteristic is employed, the vacuum effective in the diaphragm being correspondingly modified.

Filed: 1962-07-02
Abstract: 1,015,356. Shock-absorbing wheels. G. A. WALLACE. July 2, 1962, No. 25308/62. Heading B7C. An energy-absorbing wheel comprises a hub flange member 12 and a rim member 13 connected by a plurality of rigid links in such a manner that the impact energy of a radiallydirected force applied to one member is partly absorbed by deflecting the periphery of at least one member into an undulatory shape, as represented by the line 52 in Fig. 8 for the case of the rim 13 being deflected. To achieve this the link 15 must have a " connecting point " and a " fulcrum point " of contact with the deflected member. In Fig. 8 the link 15 is welded to the rim 13, and points 66, 62 respectively fulfil those functions for the link 15b. In Fig. 3 a protuberance 23 acts as a fulcrum for deflecting the rim 13, while Fig. 1 (not shown), illustrates a link with two such protuberances, bearing on both members, so that both members 12, 13 are deflected. Figs. 6, 7 (not shown), illustrate other constructions. Fig. 2 shows circumferential slots 24 in the hub flange 12 adjacent to each link 15 allowing the flange 12 to deflect independently of the axle engaging face 11 of the hub 10.
