Granted: 1913-08-14
Abstract: 26,626. Ross, R. L., and Ross & Co., R. L. Nov. 20. Multiple-delivery piston pumps. - Lubricating- pumps are operated by two tappets, one for the suction and one for the delivery stroke. The oil reservoir 1, Fig. 1, fitted with screen 3, has two sleeves 4, mounted in opposite sides, each sleeve carrying a pump barrel 5. The two plungers 13, having suction passages 15, 16. are carried by a cross-head 14, which may also carry another similar set arranged parallel with the first set. The plungers are actuated by two cam-tappets 35, 36, which are geared so as to rotate at equal speeds, but in opposite directions. Ratchet gear 21 prevents reverse rotation, and a hand-wheel 22 is provided by which the pumps may be operated. The delivery is varied by altering the position of the pump barrels 5 relatively to the suction ports 16, this being done by turning the squared extremity 7. The ball valve 9 forms an air or test valve when the nut 12 is slackened. In an alternative form, the two cam-tappets are so shaped that one is rotated by contact with the other without the intermediary of pinions, while only one end of the plunger may operate in a pump cylinder, the other end reciprocating in a dummy cylinder.

Abstract: 11,969. Dicker, S. G. S., [Stromberg Motor Devices Co.]. May 22. Spray carburettors. - The carburettor is of the type in which an auxiliary nozzle delivers fuel into the induction pipe on the' engine side of the throttle, from an auxiliary reservoir which is supplied, through a calibrated opening, from the passage leading to the main nozzle. The casing 4 is water-jacketed at 6 and contains a choketube 12 into which extends the main nozzle 19 supplied through, and removble by unscrewing, a plug 20 with restricted orifice 21. This plug may be replaced by a longer plug as shown in Fig. 3, so as to vary the resistance to the flow of fuel. The auxiliary nozzle 33 extends beyond the throttle 10 and into an auxiliary reservoir 25 fed through the restricted passage 27. The auxiliary reservoir is open at the top to a chamber 28 which surrounds the choke-tube 12 and communicates through an orifice 31 with the atmosphere and through orifices 29, 30 with the mixing-chamber. The chamber 25 is surrounded by a well 22 communicating through an orifice 23' with the atmosphere and through an orifice 23 with the main nozzle 19. The casing 4 is provided with a shelf 14 which supports the float-chamber 15. At small throttle openings, fuel is supplied by the nozzle 33 and the reservoir 25 gradually becomes emptied. At increased opening, the nozzle 19 and well 22 become operative, and when the suction becomes most energetic, these become emptied and fuel is supplied through the passage 21 by the combined action of the suction. through the nozzle 19 and the rush of air through the passage 23. An opening 16 in the float-chamber ensures atmospheric pressure on the top of the fuel.
