IPC: F16K17/38
Filed: 1913-10-07
Granted: 1914-06-25
Abstract: 22,649. McNutt, W. H. Oct. 7. Alarms; safety-valves; materials, special.-A safety-valve for use with receptacles containing gasolene or other explosive fluid, and shown in Fig. 8 as applied to the tank of a motor-boat, automobile, &c., consists of a seat 6 of fusible metal nf a shape suitable for engagement with a wrench, and a spring-pressed valve 7. In the event of a fire near the tank, the seat 6 melts and is blown out, allowing a free passage for the vapour. The tension of the spring 8 can be adjusted by turning the valve head 7. The valve head 7 is cylindrical so as to leave a narrow annular space 9 between it and the seat 6, which causes the escaping vapour to produce an audible signal. The spindle of the valve is surrounded by a shield 38 perforated at the bottom. A spring-controlled air-inlet valve 42 engaging a fusible seat 60 is also provided, and is fitted with a knob 59 for testing the valve. The two valves are mounted in a cap 34 screwed into a bushing 33 fitted with a perforated flame-proof shield 36. When the tank 30 is to be filled, the cap 34 is removed with the valves.

Title: Improvements in the Tanning of Butts or Hides and in Apparatus to be used therefor.
Inventor: WILSON EDWARD
IPC: H04M1/272
Filed: 1914-03-27
Granted: 1915-02-25
Abstract: 7762. Wilson, E. March 27. Rotary-drum apparatus; controlling flow of extracts to vats.-Hides or butts are mounted between outer and inner drums rotating in a vat into which strong extract is introduced at a predetermined rate, the weaker content being simultaneously displaced. The outer drum 6, Fig. 3, is positively driven by a worm-wheel 9 and the spindle 14 of the inner independent drum 5 passes freely through the boss 15, the hides being secured along the belly edges to rails 11, 12 which constitute the drum surfaces. Bv means of a band-brake applied to a wheel 13, the inner drum is caused to lag behind the outer one, the hides being thereby kept in tension. In an alternative construction, the hides are attached only to the outer rails 11, and the two drums are connected positively so as to rotate together. The drums rotate in a vat 3, Fig. 1, having a swivelling outlet pipe 20, the mouth 20<Î> of which is set to the required height by means of a chain 40. Strong extract passes from a tank 16 into the vat at 19 through a swivelling pipe 17, the mouth 17<Î> of which is lowered gradually by a screwed rod 18 and nut 28 through a pawl and ratchet-wheel shown in Figs. 7 and 8. A worm 21 on the driving-shaft 10 reciprocates an arm 26 through gearing 22, 23 and :a rod 25, and the arm carries a pawl engaging a ratchet-wheel 32 integral with a worm 30. This worm drives a wheel 29 having a face ratchet 37, Fig. 8, which drives the nut 28 through a pawl. Adjoining the ratchet-wheel is a disk 33 adjustable on its axis by means of handles 34 and having a peripheral part 33<Î> extending beyond the ratchet teeth. By means of a hinged stop 35, which engages notches 36 at another part of the disk, the pawl 27 may be made to engage any desired number of the ratchet teeth 32 during its oscillation and the rate of descent of the extract pipe 17 is thus controlled by the setting of the disk 33. By means of a hand-wheel 41, Fig. 1, the nut may be turned independently of the ratchet-wheel. An index 38 on the rod 18, and a scale 39 show the amount of extract added as the tanning proceeds. The Provisional Specification states that the drum-actuating mechanism may be arranged to reverse the rotation automatically at intervals.

Patent GB-191409103-A (GB)
Title: Improved Circuit Arrangements for Telephone Systems.
Filed: 1914-04-09
Granted: 1915-07-08
Abstract: 9103. Siemens & Halske Akt.-Ges. April 9. [Addition to 22,013/10.] Semi-automatic exchange systerns.-Relates to systems of the kind described in the parent Specification in which, when all the operators are engaged, further calls are connected to relief lines which lead to the same operators. According to the present invention, the operators' instruments are automatically transferred to a relief line, on which a call is waiting, as soon as the operator has attended to the call over the ordinary line on which she is engaged. A calling line I is shown connected over preliminary selectors VWI, VWII to a group selector GW associated with a service selector 2, the first three terminals of which are shown connected by trunks L, . LI, LII to operator's positions P, PI, PII respectively.. The last three terminals are connected by relief trunks ha, hb, hc to each of the operators' positions, and both sets of trunks end in terminals of automatic switches 21, 22, 23, the wipers of which are connected to the operators' instruments SP. When a call is made the relay 3 energizes the rotary magnet 5 of the service selector 2, which rotates under the control of the test relay 13. If an idle operator's position is found, the relay 13 energizes in series with a relay T at that position. The relay 13 disconnects the relay 3 and the rotary magnet 5, and shortcircuits its high-resistance winding 12 over contact 10, so as to mark the operator's position busy. The relay T short-circuits its highresistance winding y, and closes a contact t in the circuit of a relay G, common to all the operators. The selected operator attends to the call in the usual manner and then releases the service selector by opening the circuit of the relays 13, T. When all the operators are busy, the relay G connects battery through resistances w, w1, w2 and relays A, AI, AII to the test leads hc of the relief trunks. If a call arrives when all the operators are busy, the service selector 2 rotates until it engages the first idle relief line, when the relay 13 is energized over a test lead hc and the relay Ar, for example. The relay 13 marks the relief line as busy, and the relay A1 energizes a relay B, which closes contacts b at each position, so that as soon as an operator P, say, becomes free, the corresponding relay T energizes the rotary magnet D of the selector 21, which rotates to find the first relief line handling a call. The relay T is then energized, opening the circuit of magnet D and short-circuiting its highresistance winding y so as to prevent the relief line from being seized by the selector of some other operator.
