Title: Improvements in or relating to soot blowing apparatus
IPC: F28G3/16
Filed: 1932-05-10
Abstract: 385,837. Soot-blowers. AKTIEBOLAGET SUPERIOR, and WESTERBERG, C. A. A., 10, Kungstradgardsgatan, Stockholm. May 10, 1932, No. 13460. [Class 99 (ii).] Relates to soot-blowers of the kind oomprising a blower tube 3, provided with an end nozzle 5 and inlet openings 6, which is disposed within a casing 1 provided with a steam inlet 2 leading to a chamber 4 surrounding the tube 3, and is rotatable and also axially displaceable therein between an inoperative position, Fig. 1, and a working position with the openings 6 in communication with the chamber 4 by a rotatable hand-wheel or sprocket 10. The axial displacement of the tube 3 is effected by a radial pin 13 on the tube which engages with a helical groove 12 in a sleeve 7 secured to the sprocket and also an axial groove 14 in a casing 8 surrounding the sleeve 7, and rotated by an annular groove 15 provided in the casing 1 adjacent the inner end of the groove 14 and into which the pin 13 is caused to slide upon completion of its axial travel, stops 16, 18, Fig. 3, being provided in the casing to limit this latter movement. In order to overcome the reaction force of the jet which ensues during the opening of the ports 6 the last portion of the helical groove 12 may be made with a smaller pitch than the remaining portion. In a modification the helical groove is formed in the casing 8 and the axial groove in the sleeve 7. The helical groove may terminate in an annular groove 15 as before ; alternatively the last turn of the groove may have a reduced pitch so that when the openings 6 are in communication with the chamber 4 the blower tube will perform a rotary movement without any appreciable axial displacement.

Title: Improvements in or relating to cathode ray oscilloscopes for indicating pressure variations, mechanical vibrations and other phenomena
IPC: G01L23/32
Filed: 1948-05-19
Abstract: 646,751. Indicating working conditions. SHELL REFINING & MARKETING CO., Ltd., ROBSON, R. C. May 19, 1948, No. 13594. [Class 7(ii)] [Also in Groups XXXVI and XXXVIII] Variations with time of pressure and other conditions in connection with engines and other machines are caused to produce a display on a cathode ray oscillograph the time base of which is synchronized with a moving part of the engine &c. a marker spot being produced on the trace and a stroboscopic lamp being caused to flash simultaneously so that a point on the trace may be identified with a particular position of the moving part. An arrangement is shown for obtaining indicator diagrams of internal combustion engines. A pick-up head 14 is formed as a plug which can be screwed into the side of the cylinder and may consist of a small disc or diaphragm which alters the air gap in a magnetic circuit in accordance with pressure variations in the cylinder, thereby inducing a voltage in an associated coil proportional to the rate of change of pressure with respect to time. This voltage is applied through a pre-amplifier 15, integrating circuit 2, and amplifier 3 to the Y-plates Y1, Y2 of a cathode ray oscillograph. A generator 16, which is synchronized with the engine crankshaft, produces one pulse per revolution which can be adjusted to occur at any crankshaft position by varying the angular position of the stator. These pulses are amplified at 4 and trigger a time-base circuit 5, the output of which is applied to a push-pull amplifier 6 the main output of which passes directly to the X-plates, Xl, X2 of the oscillograph. Part of the output from the amplifier 6 is passed through a potentiometer 35 to a trigger circuit 7 which produces a square wave form 37. This is passed to a frequency divider 8 which produces a square wave form output 38 of half the frequency of its input, the two anodes providing outputs in opposite phase. The output from one anode is fed through a differentiating circuit 17 to the grid of the oscillograph, which thus receives sharp positive pulses corresponding to the rising voltage of the square wave output 38. The output of the other anode is fed to a second differentiating circuit 18, which supplies sharp negative-going pulses 39 to the ignition grid of a neon tube 9 in synchronism with the positive pulses fed to the oscillograph grid from the circuit 17. The marker spot produced on the trace is thus in synchronism with the flashing of the neon tube 9, which illuminates a scale on the engine flywheel. The position of the marker spot is adjustable by means of the potentiometer 35. The apparatus may also be used for examining fuel line pressures and injector needle movement in diesel engines, for determining ignition lag, and in checking distributer contact duration and timing. By using a crystal pick-up, vibration analysis of machine and engine parts can be effected.

Abstract: 474,987. Knitting. BRITISH CELANESE, Ltd., UPHILL, K. M., and JACKSON, T. May 15, 1936, No. 13811. [Class 74 (ii)] The invention relates to the production of knitted fabrics in which effect threads are laid into the fabric, without being knitted therein, the fabric being produced on a multifeeder circular machine having bearded needles. A row of loops, say 47, is carried by all needles when the first feeder is reached. The laid-in thread 24 is now fed to short butt needles 15, which produce wales 48, the long butt needles 14 lying below the feed level, and all sinkers 17 are advanced, and maintained in such position, to form loops of thread 24 about the shanks of needles 15, the loops lying in the nibs 26 of the sinkers. The long butt needles 14 are now raised to come up on the outside of the thread 24. Needles 15 are now lowered, without pressing, to pull the thread 24 downwardly into the throats 31 of the sinkers. Ground thread 32 is now fed (feeder 2) to needles 14 and loops drawn (wales 49), pressing being effected by a cam, the sinkers being operated in normal manner. Both sets of needles are now raised. Ground thread 38 is now fed (feeder 3) to all needles and all knit. Needles 14 are then raised and laid-in thread 41 is fed (feeder 4), the sinkers being advanced, and maintained in such position, to form loops about needle shanks 14. Needles 15 are then raised on the outside of thread 41. Needles 14 are now lowered, without pressing, to pull the thread 41 into the sinker throats 31. Ground thread 44 is now fed (feeder 5) to needles 15 which are pulled down and pressed, the sinkers being operated in normal manner. At feeder 6, ground thread 38 is fed to all needles which are drawn and pressed to knit and clear old loops. This process is repeated at feeders 7-12. Alternatively, the laid-in thread may be omitted at feeders 7 and 10, or at feeders 1 and 7 or only one may be incorporated out of the twelve feeders. For altering the quality of the fabric, the throw of the sinkers may be varied. The laid-in thread may be a yarn of irregular thickness.

Abstract: 1394731 Controlling maximum power demand of AC loads ST PAULS ENG CO Ltd and G D FORMAN 27 March 1973 [27 March 1972] 14168/72 Heading H2H Apparatus for distributing power from an A.C. source to consumer loads L1-L4 comprises triacs T1-T4 and a logic circuit for supplying pulses at the zero crossings of the A.C. supply to switch on, in a programmable sequence, the triacs selected by the operation of individual switches S1-S4 associated with the loads. The loads may be storage heaters, the hot plates of an electric cooker or industrial melting pots and the logic circuit prevents the simultaneous connection of, for example, two or more loads to the mains to restrict the maximum power demand. A pulse generator Y supplies pulses at the mains frequency to gates M1-M4 and a frequency dividing counter X, connected to frequency dividing counters W, supplies three out of phase pulse trains on leads t3-t5. A flip-flop F1 supplies anti-phase pulse trains on leads t1, t2 and a frequency dividing counter Z supplies four out of phase pulse trains on leads t6-t9. The pulse trains are fed to data selectors H1-H4 which also receive logical "1" or "0" signals on four further inputs depending on whether the switches S1-S4 are open or closed. The gates M1-M4 are connected to the trigger electrodes of the triacs via circuits X1-X4 provided with transformer or optical isolators. Alternatively the gates M1-M4 and the circuits X1-X4 may be replaced by integrated circuit, zero voltage switches. The outputs of the data selectors steer pulses from the generator 7 to the triacs so that if only one of the switches S1-S4 is closed, the associated gate M1-M4 triggers the associated triac continuously wheras if two or more of the switches are closed the associated triacs are triggered in sequence. Modifications are described in which the logic circuit includes a Mobius counter and in which the logic circuit includes a ring counter connected as a shift register. The triacs may be replaced by thyristors or thyratrons.
