Title: Apparatus for applying liquid colouring material at intervals along an elongate member for identification purposes
Inventor: STOCKER RUDOLPH
IPC: H01B13/34
Filed: 1964-03-25
Abstract: 1,009,584. Apparatus for coating wires. SIEMENS-SCHUCKERTWERKE A. G. March 25, 1964, No. 12742/64. Heading D1L. Apparatus for applying colouring bands for identification purposes to an elongated article such as an insulated conductor comprises two rotors 6, 7 each carrying at least one nozzle 63, 64 to which liquid colouring material may be supplied to emerge as jets which form a series of longitudinally-spaced half-rings on a travelling insulated conductor 1, the rotor 6 being mounted so as to be angularly adjustable in position in order to arrange the half-rings formed on the conductor by the jet from that rotor should coincide with and be completed into rings by the jets from the rotor 7 and a stroboscopic device being provided which forms an image of the applied marks in a viewing mirror. In addition one of the rotors may be mounted so as to be longitudinally adjustable on its driving shaft. Liquid colouring material is supplied by a pump via pipes 23 and rotary connections to the hollow shafts 8, 9 upon which the rotors are mounted. Shafts 8 and 9 rotate synchronously and are driven by a common drive chain not shown through sprockets 41, 42. The drive to the shafts 8, 9 is taken from a variable speed motor, which also drives a haul pulley forwarding the conductor, and includes gear means and electrical means for varying the speed of the shafts 8, 9, so that the ratio of the speeds of the shafts 8, 9 to the forwarding speed of the conductor may be varied to the desired value to provide suitable spacing of the markings. Annular shroud members surround the rotors to catch the jets of liquid which do not impinge upon the conductor. These may carry masking members for the conductor and may be adjustable in position as described in Specification 1,009, 585. The liquid colouring material not deposited upon the conductor is recirculated (Fig. 1, not shown). An electro-magnetic generator comprising a toothed rotor 43 is mounted on a hollow shaft 30 keyed to shaft 9, and amplified pulses so derived light a lamp to illuminate the conductor markings and produce a stationary image in a viewing mirror.

Title: Bar windings for electrical machines
IPC: B21F1/00
Filed: 1975-03-26
Abstract: 1496445 Bending; shearing; making electrical coils NI I EXPERIMENT INST AVTOMOBIL ELECKTRO I AVTOPRIB 26 March 1975 12742/75 Headings B3E B3A and B3W [Also in Division H2] A single turn bar winding made from wire of rectangular section, and comprising two substantially parallel legs 3 connected by an end portion 2, is formed by bending the wire in the plane of the shorter side face of the wire, the end portion also being bent without being twisted so as to be depressed asymmetrically out of the plane of the winding. Fig. 2 shows apparatus for performing the bending in three stages. The wire is fed by a reciprocating gripper device comprising a carriage 16 movable on rods 19, and a slide 17 movable by piston and cylinder 18 and connected to the carriage by pins 23, and slotted levers 22 mounted on rotary discs 21. These discs also actuate reciprocable spring loaded plunger 24 for gripping the wire. On the extension stroke of cylinder 18, the carriage is initially held by brakes (not shown) so that the slide advances and rotates the levers 22 and discs 21 and the wire is gripped by plungers 24. Thereafter the slide moves the carriage against its brakes, to feed the wire until the carriage abuts stops 20. On the return stroke, the wire is released by the plungers, and return of the wire is prevented by device 25, 26. A storage loop of wire is maintained by a loop size sensor 14 operating limit switches 15 which turn feed motor 5 on and off. The wire also passes through cold working device 11 and straighteners 12, 13. The advanced wire, passes through guides 27 to abut a stop 28, and is cut off by dies 29, 30 shaped so as to taper the wire ends in two planes as seen in Fig. 1. Die 34 then descends on to die 32, asymmetrically shaping' what is to become the end portion of the winding in the plane of the broader faces of the wire. Die 35 then advances to bend the end section into the V-shaped leading portion of a groove 33, then dies 35 and 38 are moved together, past a yoke 36 which presses the leg portions of the winding into the remainder of groove 33. A final shaping of the end portion is achieved by die 38, which has a hook to remove the winding from die 32.

Title: Vaporizing volatile components from viscous liquids or plastic solids
IPC: B29C48/64
Filed: 1956-04-25
Abstract: Volatile components are removed from thermoplastic polymerized material, e.g. solvent or monomer is separated from a vinyl type polymer, or water is removed from synthetic rubber, by heating the fluid material in the form of a flat, helical ribbon and then subjecting it to reduced pressure so that vaporization of at least some of the volatile component occurs.  The heating in ribbon-formation may be repeated, if desired, and the material is then finally passed through a second low-pressure chamber where the remainder of the volatile component evaporates.  In the apparatus shown, the material is conveyed through the apparatus in the form of two helical ribbons by means of two worms.  Figs. 2B and 3 show the rear or feed-portion, and Figs. 1A and 2A show the front or discharge portion, of the apparatus.  The viscous liquid is introduced through inlet <PICT:0798912/III/1> <PICT:0798912/III/2> <PICT:0798912/III/3> <PICT:0798912/III/4> 47 into hopper 15; and gas-pressure is maintained on line 48. Alternatively, the liquid may be pumped into the apparatus. Replaceable liners 18, 19, which resist wear and chemical reaction, are provided in the barrel of the apparatus.  The barrel is divided into successive jacketed sections 11, 12, 13, 14 and 17, through which heating medium may be passed.  The material is also heated by the mechanical work performed by the flights of the two worms, which rotate in opposite directions.  The pitch of these flights decreases from the inlet and to two resistors 24. The material is forced through the close clearance existing between the rotary resistors and the liners; and enters chamber 34 where some of the liquid evaporates.  The vapours are removed through passages 40, which are connected to a condenser and a vacuum system.  The worm flight depth 60 decreases in chamber 34 from the rearto the front-end.  The material discharged from the front-end of chamber 34 is conveyed through the reheating section of the apparatus, and then enters secondary chamber 35, where the remainder of the volatile component is vaporized.  The depth of the flights in both the reheating section and the chamber 35 decreases in the direction of flow.  The processed material is finally carried forward by rotary member 32, and extruded through die orifices 37.

Title: Process for the continuous production of zinc in vertical reduction chambers
IPC: C22B19/14
Filed: 1937-05-04
Abstract: 483,256. Distilling zinc. METALLGES. AKT.-GES. May 4, 1937, No. 12773. Convention date, June 10, 1936. [Class 82 (i)] In a process for the continuous production of zinc in vertical reducing shafts, a shaft made of highly refractory material having good heat-conducting properties (such as silicon carbide) is divided in its top portion, outside the heating zone, into a middle chamber and an outer chamber or chambers of which the former is charged with non-slagging lumps of a material not attacked by zinc vapours, such as coke, silicon carbide, porcelain or quartzite stones, and the latter is or are charged with zinciferous material and reducing agent; the arrangement is such that when the charges reach the heating zone the outer material is heated through the shaft walls, the zinc vapours and reduction gases pass to the condenser through the middle column and the various residues are constantly or intermittently withdrawn, those from the middle shaft being recovered for further use preferably by sifting. In the Figure, the shaft is divided into three chambers by walls c carried by arches b and the middle and, if desired, the side chambers are each closed by a cover &c. h. The middle and outer chambers communicate by slits in the arches and the middle chamber communicates with the condenser by an aperture g. The outside of the shaft may be insulated as at a<2> to prevent heat loss and to effect drying and preheating of the charge. The subdivision of the shaft may be effected by providing a central chamber of round, oval, or polyhedral form, and the refractory material may be preheated.
