Title: Apparatus for Finding Shoals.
Inventor: SJOESTRAND ULRIK SEVERIN
IPC: B63B43/00
Filed: 1913-08-28
Granted: 1913-12-18
Abstract: 19,502. Sjostrand, U. S. Aug. 30, 1912, [Convention date]. Sounding - apparatus. - A device for locating shoals comprises a pair of kites 6 connected to each other by one or more sweeping-lines 7 and to buoys 4 by lines 5. The buoys are connected to the winding-apparatus 2 by lines 3 and the arrangement is such that this connexion becomes broken when the line 7 or either of the kites 6 strikes a shoal, the buoys being thus left floating over the shoal. Each buoy 4 has a keel 8 and a helm 9, arranged obliquely so that the buoys tend to separate. Attached to each keel 8 is a coupling- device ccmprising a pivoted hook 10 to which a ring at the end of the line 3 is attached. This hook is kept in position by a pivoted hook 14 which is acted on by a spring 13 and which has an extension 15 pressing against the end of a bolt 17. This bolt is surrounded by a spring 18, stronger than the spring 13, and has the line 5 attached to its lower end, so that, when the pull on the line 5 ceases, the hook 14 is rotated and the line 3 is released. Each kite 6, Fig. 8, has an eye 20 through which the line 5 passes, this line passing back along the kite and terminating in a ring which passes over a hook 21 and is retained therein by a hook 22 at the end of a pivoted arm 23. This arm is normally retained in the position shown in Fig. 8 by the arm 25, which is pivoted at 24 and which is acted upon by the spring 26. An arrow 19 is suspended from a rotatable member 27 so that, when the arrow comes in contact with a shoal, this member is rotated and presses against the arm 25, the line 5 being consequently released from the hook 21. A lever 28, Fig. 9, having an inclined surface 29 is attached to the upper side of the kite and has the line 7 secured to it so that, when the line 7 comes in contact with a shoal, this lever is rotated and the inclined surface 29 acting on the projecting part 30 of the arm 25 causes the line 5 to be released from the hook 21. Specification 16,080/00 is referred to.

Granted: 1915-12-30
Abstract: 11,461. Squibb, L. Y. Aug. 8, 1914, [Convention date]. Mechanically tripped and released switches.- The starting-switch of an electrically - driven talking-machine is automatically thrown into the 'off' position when the motor has made a predetermined number of revolutions, means also being provided for operating the switch by the tone-arm at the end of a reproduction. The switch arm 11 for opening and closing the motor circuit is pivoted on an horizontal plate 6 secured to the top plate of the machine. The switch contacts are carried by a sleeve arranged below the plate 6 and loose on the pivot 12, an upstanding lug 23 on the sleeve projecting through an arc - shaped slot 24 in the plate 6 and being connected, with slight freedom of movement, to an extension of the arm 11. The switch arm, during the playing of a record, is locked by a latch 25 pivoted on a pin 26. A spring 29 connects the switch arm to the latch 25. On the completion of a record, a projection 31 moving with the tone-arm engages a lever 30, which rocks the latch 25 out of engagement with the hub of the switch arm 11, permitting the switch arm to move to the off' position under the control of the spring 29. A quick break at the contacts is obtained by the lost-motion connexicn of the lug 23. In order to stop the motor in case the above mechanism is not in operation, the latch 25 is released by a device which operates after a predetermined number of revolutions of the motor. A rachet-wheel 35, driven from the turntable spindle 5 through a double chain of worm reducing-gear, engages the outer end of a pawl 50 centrally pivoted to a carrier plate 52, which is itself pivoted to the extension of the switch arm 11. The inner end of the pawl 50 lies opposite a bevel 63 on the latch 25, and a spring 56 coupled to the switch arm extension holds the pawl 50 in the position shown, a stop 55 being in contact with the carrier plate 52. After a predetermined number of revolutions of the motor, the inner end of the pawl engages the bevel 63 and raises the latch 25, and as the switch arm moves over, the carrier plate is drawn to the right and is swung clockwise by the engagement of the sloping surface 70 with a fixed stop 58. The pawl 50 is thus moved away from the ratchet-wheel 35 and is ready to engage another tooth when the switch arm 11 is again operated to start the motor. A stop 60 on the pawl 50 positively operates the carrier plate 52 and switch arm 11 if the spring 29 fails.
