Title: Coin-freed machine for delivering tickets and mechanically releasing a revolving door
Inventor: BARBERIS GIOVANNI
IPC: G07F17/14
Filed: 1956-10-30
Abstract: 804,210. Coin-freed ticket-printing machines and turnstiles. RIV OFFICINE DI VILLAR PEROSA, S. P. A. Oct. 30, 1956, No. 33122/56. Class 27 A coin-freed device 4 releases the lock of a turnstile and at the same time prints and issues a ticket. Coin mechanism. A lock mechanism 9 switches on the electrical supply for the device and also moves a mask 10 clear off one or more coin slots 11. An inserted coin G, if not rejected to a return shoot 18 and outlet 7 by a tester 17, or held in the tester falls down a shoot 19 and raises a lever 20 so that the support of a pin 22 is removed from beneath a lever 23, thus allowing the lever to fall and close a mercury switch 25 in the circuit of an electromagnet and a driving motor. Towards the end of an operating cycle, a cam 87 driven by the motor acts on a lever 86 and returns the lever 23 to its initial position. Another electromagnet is supplied from the switch operated by the lock 9 and is connected to a slide which moves behind the mask 10 and blocks the coin slots if the electromagnet is not energized because of current failure, the locked position of lock 9 or failure of the paper supply to a printing unit. The slide also operates an "out of use" sign 5. Ticket-printing. Paper unrolling from a spool 43 is fed over a printing plate 49 below a unit 45 containing the feed, fixed inscription and date members and below a unit 44 having an inking ribbon 47 and printing discs which co-operate with a printing lever 46. Tickets cut by a cutter 50 fall into a channel 51 which is of a length greater than the ticket length in order to prevent tampering with the ticket before it is cut. A lever 39 bears on the paper strip and on failure of the paper moves to a position in which a switch 37 cuts off the current to the electromagnet for preventing operation of the device. For testing the ticket-printing mechanism without releasing the turnstile, a pin 84 which operates a gear sector 62 controlling the turnstile can be moved from one end of a slot 85a to the other end in Which it rocks freely in a branch 62a of the slot. A ticket counter is visible through a slot 12, Fig. 2. Turnstile release. During the operating cycle, the motor rotates the gear sector 62 which, through racks 64, 67 on an axiallymovable rod 65, rotates a gear sector 68 and by removing an abutment 68b from a tooth 70 frees the turnstile shaft 3. The end 68a of the sector 68 engages a surface 71a on a lever 71 and is held in the freeing position until the following tooth 70a on the turnstile shaft raises the lever 71, the return of the sector 68 to locking position being assisted by the tooth 70 engaging a lever 74 connected through a spring 75 to the sector. For rotation of the turnstile independently of the device, a cam 80 can be rotated by a sliding bar 76 to pivot two levers 81, 82 so that they raise the lever 71 and rotate the sector 68 to the freeing position.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the flat contact tempering of glass
IPC: C03B27/004
Filed: 1964-08-14
Abstract: <PICT:1048237/C1/1> A flat contact tempering plate having a yielding surface is made up of a series of juxtaposed independent elements each element comprising a flat head 1 fixed to the top end of a spindle 2 which extends into, and slides resiliently within, a plate support 3, the spindle 2 also being used to transmit and remove heat from the flat head portion 1 to a cooling fluid, circulating within passages 4 in the support 3, during the tempering of a glass sheet. A spring or spring washer 5 interposed between the head 1 and the support 3 gives the element its resilience which can be regulated by a nut 6 at the lower end of the spindle 2.  A duct 9 within the spindle 2 terminating in an orifice in the head 1 allows a gas to pass through and form a cushion at the plate surface below a glass sheet.  By depressing predetermined numbers of the elements it is possible to differentially temper a glass sheet. The elements may be hexagonal in shape and the whole unit forming the full plate is covered with a woven fabric such as glass fibre.  The head 1 and spindle 2 may be made of copper. A plate made up as above may be used in conjunction with the upper plate described in Specification 1,043,903 to contact temper a sheet of glass laid flat between two such plates.

Abstract: 1485885 Boxes for cassettes SENSORMATIC ELECTRONICS CORP 8 Aug 1975 [15 Oct 1974] 33245/75 Heading B8P [Also in Division E2] An anti-theft container for a tape cassette includes an electromagnetic re-radiator and has clips retaining the cassette in the container and which can only be released by a device at the checkout point. The container 10 has electromagnetic re-radiator T secured to one wall thereof and has two clips 44 engaging the end of the cassette. After inserting a cassette into the container the clips are pressed inwardly to the position shown in Fig. 1 and a spring 34 retains each clip in its inward position by the engagement of legs 40a, 40b in notches 50, 52 thereby preventing removal of the cassette. At the checkout point, the container is placed on the releasing device 100 and pressed down whereupon a spring loaded plate 86 moves downwardly and two keys 96a, (96b) having bifurcated upper ends enter slots 24a in the container and move the spring legs outwardly whereupon the clips are released and the cassette is freed and falls on to resilient pads 82a The container may be of transparent material but its lower part is opaque so that the operation of the clips and springs cannot be seen.

Cartons are transferred by a suction member G from a magazine D and set up each in a holder F carried by a pair of endless chains E, which carry the cartons past base-closing members H, filling members J, closure members K and gluing members to a removal member 239. A spring-loaded follower 63 urges the stacked cartons towards the member G which is cam-operated to pivot about a pin 119, Fig. 11, vacuum being applied to a cup 112 through intermediate passages from a pump 153. A rotary air valve 150 interrupts the air flow to release the carton when the arm 110 of the member G has passed between the pair of chains E and the carton is positioned in the holder F. As the carton is carried forward its flaps 180, 181 are pressed back by a bar 166, Fig. 13. A bottom bar 173 raises a lower flap 182, and a second lower flap 186 is lifted by a bevel arm 190 of a rotary member 195. A striker arm 194 then raises the lower flap tongue 195. A guide rail 197 holds the tongue 195 as the carton is advanced to a shoe 205 which has inclined surfaces for tucking in the tongue 195. The carton is advanced to the filler J rotating about a shaft 84. The top carton flaps are closed by members K, identical with the members H but inverted. After passing through the gluing assembly L, a cam-operated arm 239 ejects the closed cartons from the holders F.

Abstract: 1422829 Explosively-actuated fastener driving tools HILTI AG 16 July 1973 [2 Aug 1972] 33753/73 Heading B4C An explosively-actuated fastener driving tool comprises a swingable feed device 5 for effecting stepwise transportation of a strip 6 holding fasteners 26, and a tool body 1 having a muzzle 2 and, if desired, a supporting and operating rod 36 for lowering the tool into, for example, chill moulds to fix plates or tiles, the feed device being provided with a pawl or other control member 16 which effects the stepwise transportation when the feed device is swung about its pivot 8 towards and away from the muzzle. Notches 19 in the strip are engaged in turn by a ball catch 27 and the pawl 16 which is urged into its engagement by a leaf spring 21. Movement of the pawl is effected by a pin 14 operating in a slot 15 against the action of a draw spring 12 on a link 7. When the feed device is swung towards the muzzle 2, the pawl 16 is lifted to the notch 19b ready to advance the strip when the feed device is swung outwards again under the influence of the draw spring 12. With the feed device swung inwards, the head of the fastener enters the muzzle 2 and displaces the driving piston (when this is provided) into its position ready for firing. Firing of the fastener causes its head to tear off a portion of the strip 33a to form a washer. The pivot 8 may be on the rod 36 instead.
