Title: A New or Improved Process for the Preparation of Compounds for Fuel Briquettes.
Inventor: WAGNER BERNHARD
Filed: 1905-01-07
Granted: 1905-07-13
Abstract: 351. Wagner, B. Jan. 7. Composition fuel.-In making briquettes, a watersoluble agglutinant, e.g. waste liquors from cellulose factories, is heated to about 60‹ C. and mixed with anthracite or other material which has been heated separately to about 140‹ C., the compound being fed to a press at about 100‹ C. The briquettes are weatherproofed by heating them to coke the agglutinant.

Title: A New or Improved Method and Apparatus for Separating Wort from Mash by Centrifugal Action.
Inventor: BAEGER RICHARD
Filed: 1905-04-20
Granted: 1905-09-21
Abstract: 8576. Baeger, R., and G³ttner, M. April 20. Separating liquids from solids.-Relates to means for the separation of mash into wort, albuminoids, and returns. The mash passes down the hopper 14, and is thrown by the distributor 15 against a sloping perforated plate 9 resting on an annular plate 6, which is attached to arms 4 on a rotating shaft. This plate form the bottom of the annular drum, into which the liquid and albuminous portions of the mash pass through the uuderwall 9. The returns form a filtering-layer on the inner side of the plate 9, which, according to the slope of the plate 9, increases or decreases in thickness towards the bottom. The former arrangement, obtained with a gentle slope of the plate, as shown, is suitable for mashes rich in albuminoids. The liquid, passing through, deposits the heaviest albuminoids on the bottom and the outer wall 8 of the drum, and flows on through a series of concentric chambers formed between the lid and the disk 27 and communicating alternately at top and bottom of the circular partitions, which are held apart by distance-plates. The albuminoids are deposited on the circular partitions. The clear wort is finally discharged through the pipe 25. The distributor 15 may be on the same shaft as the drum, or it may be driven at a different rate through a worm-wheel 43, a worm, and intermediate belts and pulleys from the shaft. The layer of returns on the plate 9 may be washed by means of hot water passing through the perforated pipe 12. When the drum is stopped, the returns fall on the sloping plate 28 and into the trough 53, whence they are conveyed by a screw. The casing 17 of the apparatus may be surrounded by the steam jacket 78, and may be provided with apertures or doors by which the air circulation is regulated.

Title: An Improved Machine for Making Vulcanized Fibre and like Cylinders.
Inventor: HANSEN THORVALD
Filed: 1906-01-08
Granted: 1906-12-06
Abstract: 520. Hansen, T. Jan. 8. Paper tubesÀ-In a machine for the manufacture of vulcanized fibre or the like cylinders, more particularly for roving cans, a strip of paper is led from the adjustably-mounted roll C over a steam - heated roller D round a frame b, which is suspended in a tank of sulphuric acid or other liquid with which the paper is to be treated, past scrapers b<2>, b<3>, which remove the excess of acid, over a heated compression roller E and on to a forming mandrel F, which is made collapsible to permit the easy removal of a formed tube. The mandrel is rotated by gearing from the driver shaft, and the roller E is rotated by friction from the mandrel or the paper wound thereon, and to allow of this it is mounted in bearings in the pivoted arms E<1> on the other end of which is a pivoted block e<1> attached to a rod e<2>. This rod e<2> is attached to a crank e<3> on the shaft e<4> at the back of the machine. This shaft e<4> carries a handle e<6> which, on being turned, simultaneously lifts the roller E and removes the bearing from under the mandrel spindle. For this purpose, the bearing is carried in a bent lever F<5>, pivoted to the framework, one end of which is forked and the other is supported by a link carried by a roller j<12> on the bearing-plate f<13>. On the handle being turned, the tappet e<9> engages with a pin which slides the rod F<4> along, allowing the link to fall away, and at the same time the pin eg engages with the forked end of the lever and lifts the bearing away from the spindle. To stop the machine when sufficient paper is wound on the mandrel, a rack carries an adjustable stop h and is moved upwards step by step by means of a pawl h' actuated by the lever h<2> which is actuated by a cam h<1> carried by the mandrel sleeve; a lower pawl h<5> holds the rack and prevents its return. The rack is raised until the stop h ccmes in contact with a trigger which releases a rod and which the spring k draws towards the left, pulling the belt shifter on to the loose pulley. To throw the belt on, the lever K<1> is moved to the right. To return the rack H to its starting point, the pawls are disengaged by means of a rod j<1> attached to the lever j, the other end of which is attached through the bellcrank j<2> and rod j<4> to the handle j<6> To trim the ends of the tube formed on the mandrel, knives L attached to the rod l are provided.

Abstract: 671. Herbert, E., and Whyatt, H. J. Jan. 10. Felloes or rims.-Rims or felloes of solid, cushion, and pneumatic tyres for cycles, motorcycles, and motor - cars, are formed with detachable side flanges, secured by a bayonet-joint, the slots cut in the flanges being provided with terminal enlargements, into which studs or pins co-operating with them are forced by the pressure of the tyre, and lock the parts together against relative circumferential movement. The flange a is secured to the felloe b by headed bolts c, while the slotted flange d is slipped in laterally under the fixed flange a and turned so that the bolts c engage with the circumferential portions of the slots. In another form, a metal ring g, Fig. 3, embraces the felloe, and the flat face of the fixed flange a is bent to form a pocket for the detachable flange d. In another modification, both flanges are detachable.

Abstract: 8028. Marold, E. April 3. Lathes ; chucks. - A stop - motion for an automatic screw-machine, which operates when the bar stock x is finished or when there is an undue pressure between the tool and the work owing to the tool being blunt or improperly adjusted, is shown in Figs. 1, 4, and 6. A clutch on the countershaft is connected with a rod n and is disengaged by a spring when the catch i for retaining the rod is withdrawn. The catch is withdrawn, when the bar stock is finished, by a, projection 20 on a lever e, which is pivoted in the chuck a, is acted on by a spring, and has a pivoted pin f projecting into the centre of the hollow spindle or chuck. The tool levers v are oscillated by cams y, z acting on pins 14 carried by slides 15 normally locked by spring bolts 16 to the levers v. When the pressure between a tool and the work is excessive, the resistance of the bolt 16 is overcome and the lever falls, as shown at the lefthand. side of Fig. 6, and by means of a yoke 12 and a lever 6 or 8 oscillates the cam-shaft k directly or indirectly through a rod 4, and thus withdraws the catch i. The levers 6, 8 are splined on shafts k, 2 and move along with the tool rests.

Granted: 1907-02-14
Abstract: 12,477. Fairweather, W., [Electrical Devices Co.]. May 29. Switches.-In order that the resistance may not be cut out too quickly from the circuit of a street car, the controller is provided with a dog 18 carried by a bracket on the head 14 which rotates with the controller handle. This dog engages with a series of cam-surfaces 7 and stops 9, which together form a zigzag channel in a plate 11 carried by the controller casing. The dog 18 is bent as shown, and is carried by a ball 21 which allows movement in two directions, movement in the third direction being prevented by the bracket on which the ball, is mounted. On the handle being turned in a clockwise direction, the dog is forced by a camsurface 7 against one of the stops 9, and is held there until the handle is released slightly, when it falls by gravity against the next cam-surface 7. By this means, a step-by-step movement is permitted to the controller. On the handle being turned in the opposite direction, the ball permits the dog to ride over the projections, and thus allows a continuous return. To prevent the plate 14 from being 'lifted, it carries a pin which engages with an annular channel 13 in the plate 11.
