Title: Improvements in or relating to the locking of track-guided carriages on their tracks, particularly applicable to such carriages in gun mountings
IPC: F41A27/12
Filed: 1940-05-15
Abstract: 553,268. Clamps. RICE, E. A. B., ROSE, A. G., CURTIS, S., and ROSE BROS. (GAINSBOROUGH), Ltd. May 15, 1940, No. 8688. [Class 44] [Also in Group XXI] Relates to carriages movable along a track and clamped by a friction shoe slidably mounted in the carriage for movement into and out of engagement with the track by cam or eccentric means. According to the invention, the cam or eccentric is continuously urged into engagement with the shoe by a spring which normally effects the locking, the release being effected by actuating the cam or eccentric by operating means. The invention is shown applied to a gun support 24 movable round a track 11 as described in Specification 553,267, [Group XXI]. Sliding shoes 73, faced with anti-friction material 766, are moved into and out of engagement with the track by eccentrics 71 fast with a spindle 68, a pinion 67 on which is rotated by a rack moved by an arm 62 on a lever 52. This lever, fulcrummed at 51, is pressed upwardly to urge the friction shoes against the track by a spring 61 mounted on the support 24 and acting through a pin 54 on the lever. By moving the lever to the dotted-line position where it is locked by a catch 81, the spindle 68 is rotated to release the friction shoes. The lever may be operated by a knob 79 or hand-grip 53.

Abstract: 184,773. Aeronautical Instrument Co., (Assignees of Briggs, L. J., and Heyl, P. R.). Aug. 13, 1921, [Convention date]. Signalling any of a number of possible indications. - In earth-inductor direction-finding devices applicable to aircraft and ships, the collecting brushes of several generator circuits are connected to a common galvanometer or the like through means which can be adjusted so that a null reading is obtained on the galvanometer &c. when the craft takes the desired course. In one form, a single pair of opposite commutator brushes are connected to a galvanometer, and, when the craft is to be steered to any angle to the magnetic meridian, the brushes are turned relatively to the craft through this angle in the opposite direction, so that the galvanometer gives a null reading when the craft is steered correctly. In another form, applicable to remote course-setting when the inductor coils are at a distance from the navigator, several pairs of opposite commutator brushes fixed relatively to the craft are connected to a galvanometer through a potentiometer adjusted so that a null reading is obtained when the craft is steered in the desired course. The potentiometer may comprise two resistances 10, 11, Fig. 6, the ends of each resistance being connected to a pair of opposite commutator brushes and four equidistant brushes being used. One end 18 of the resistance 10 is connected to either end of the resistance 11, and the galvanometer 12 is connected to adjustable contacts 13, 14, the position of which may be altered by an amount corresponding to the desired change in course in order to maintain a null reading. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) comprises also forms of the tworesistance potentiometer in which different connections are made, the galvanometer being connected between an end of one resistance Vs, Fig. 3 (Cancelled), and an adjustable contact 11 on the other resistance, and one end or point of one resistance being connected to an adjustable contact on the other. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
