IPC: H02K27/18
Filed: 1928-07-24
Abstract: 320,901. Weichsel, H., and McCormick, B. July 24, 1928. Alternating-current commutator and induction machines.-An alternating-current motor has a commutator on the inducing member, and the induced member is wound for more than two poles each pole having two exciting windings in good inductive relation to each other acting in the same direction and connected to different brushes of the same polarity, and the exciting circuits have a common point to which each brush is connected through at least one winding. As shown applied to a four-pole synchronous machine, the rotor is provided with a polyphase primary winding connected to slip-rings 1 - - 3 and a commutator winding 4. The stator has exciting windings 5, 5<a>, 6, 6<a> connected across the positive brushes 7, 8 and windings 9, 9<a>, 10, 10<a> connected across the negative brushes 11, 12. The brushes are slightly displaced from the axes of the exciting windings, and an adjustable resistance 13 is located in the circuit connecting the two groups of windings. If, for example, brush 7 should make imperfect contact and so interrupt the circuit through windings 6, 6<a>, the windings 5, 5<a> would act as damping windings and reduce the sparking at the brushes. The machine may be started as an induction motor by decreasing gradually the resistance 13.

Title: An improved method of isolation or extracting cellulose or paper-pulp from fibrous vegetable materials and apparatus therefor
IPC: D21C7/00
Filed: 1922-08-09
Abstract: 195,005. Raitt, W. Aug. 9, 1922. Addition to 171,482. Pulp, preparation of.-In order to carry out the process described in the parent Specification in digesters of the known type, such as Sinclair or Roeckner digesters, three or four digesters A, B, C are provided with upper and lower screens, and also screens 4 for outlet pipes 5, thus permitting discharge of liquor from above or below the mass of pulp in the digester, pipe connections being fitted to connect the digester to each other and to two or more liquor storage tanks D, E. Assuming that the digester A is charged with raw material, that the material in the digester B has undergone its second or high pressure digestion, and the material in the digester C its first or low pressure digestion, while tanks D, E contain strong and weak leach respectively, the method of operation is as follows :-The spent liquor in the digester C is discharged by steam pressure to the soda recovery plant, the supernatant liquor through the space 4 and pipe system 5, and the remainder through the pipe 2 and pipe system 5. The digester C receives its fresh charge of strong liquor and proeseds to its second or high pressure digestion. The liquor in the digester B is then transferred to digester A, strong leach liquor in sufficient amount to cover the raw material being admitted from the tank D. The digester A now proceeds with its first or low pressure digestion; the digester B begins its leaching operation, receiving the second or weak leach from the tank E, which leach thus becomes a strong leach and is discharged to the tank D. The second or weak leach is supplied through the stand pipe 1 or through a manhole a, and may be either weak liquor from a further washing operation given to the pulp, or may be fresh water. This second weak leach is discharged to the tank E for use on a first leach in the next digester in the series. The digester B having completed its cycle, the pulp is discharged. Leaching operations may be conducted with the aid of steam from the high pressure supply, or by low pressure from another digester. Economy in steam may be effected by using three stages : the high pressure stage, at, say, 50 lbs. pressure, the low pressure stage being supplied from the high pressure digester at, say, 15 lbs. pressure, and the steam from the low pressure digester at, say, 5 lbs. pressure, being used to heat up the liquors, in tanks D. E, or fresh water or weak washings in a further tank.

Title: Improvements in the method of manufacture of pre-cast pre-stressed concrete structures
IPC: B28B23/04
Filed: 1943-12-30
Abstract: 571,901. Reinforced concrete. PRE-STRESSED CONCRETE CO., Ltd., and MAUTNER, K. W. Dec. 30, 1943, No. 21832. [Class 20 (iv)] A method of making pre-stressed concrete elements consists in stretching high grade tensile wires, casting the concrete around the stretched wires, and subsequently releasing the wires gradually and intermittently in several stages during the hardening period with time intervals between each releasing operation. It is stated that by this method it is possible to secure adequate compressive as well as bond strength in a shorter time than if the wires are released in one operation. In one example wires of 40 feet in length and so stretched that they will shorten by 6 inches in the finished article are released to shorten by ¢ inch after three days hardening of the concrete. A further 1 inch shortening is allowed on the fourth day, another 1¥ inches on the fifth day, and the remaining shortening permitted on the sixth or seventh day.

Title: Improvements in or relating to antennas
IPC: H01Q9/26
Filed: 1938-07-25
Abstract: 517,342. Aerials. MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CO., Ltd. July 25, 1938, No. 21984. Convention date, July 24, 1937. [Class 40 (v)] A short-wave television aerial comprises a number of parallel conductors spaced apart by a small fraction of the operating wavelength, one free end being connected to the transmission line and the other being left open, or also connected to the line without the use of a terminating impedance. The arrangement presents a flat impedance over a wide range of frequencies without the use of a matching transformer. As shown in Fig. 1, the aerial consists of a closely-spaced pair of half-wave wires A, B connected together at both ends, the transmission line being directly coupled to a centre break in the wire B. The current distribution in each wire is shown in dotted lines, and is additive for the pair. For a given current, the radiation resistance of the two wires in parallel is four times that of a single dipole, thus giving the broad resonance and impedance characteristics required in television. Wires 3/4 or 5/4 of a wave in length can be used to present a higher impedance. The wire A may be broken in the centre, and the gap bridged by a quarter-wave loop. As shown in Fig. 8 three wires are used to give nine times the radiation resistance of a single dipole ; whilst the four-wire arrangement of Fig. 11 gives a 16 : 1 ratio. Fig. 14 shows an aerial assembly corresponding to Fig. 8. Specifications 424,698, and 438,326, are referred to. The Specification, as open to inspection under Sect. 91, comprises also an aerial in which a centre gap is bridged by a resistance ; this subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
