Granted: 1911-12-01
Abstract: 25,397. Akt.-Ges. Brown, Boveri, et Cie. Nov. 1, [Convention date]. Drawings to Specification. Alternating-current commutator and induction machines.-The primary phase-displacement of induction motors connected in cascade with single-phase or polyphase commutator machines, having shunt-excited field-magnet windings, is automatically compensated for all loads by so adjusting the ohmic and inductive resistances in the field circuits of the commutator machines that, with increasing slip, the magnitude and phase of the terminal voltage of the commutator machines are varied in the requisite manner. Adjustable resistances and choking-coils may be inserted in the field circuits of the commutator machines; or their exciting-windings may be designed with increased resistance; or their field-magnets may be designed with increased leakage or iron losses (hysteresis &c.). Machines may be similarly arranged for over- and undercompensation. The invention is also applicable to induction generators connected in cascade with commutator machines.

Granted: 1911-09-14
Abstract: 29,555. Dietrich, P. Dec. 20. Giffard injectors.-To prevent interruption in the working of an injector, especially when dealing with hot water, the feed is supplied under a pressure greater than the saturated vapour pressure of steam at the temperature of the water leaving the injector. Steam from a boiler c passes by a pipe d to a four-way cock c, which during the operation of the injector b allows steam to pass to the injector and also, by a pipe f, to a vessel a. The water in the vessel a, which may be that from a preheater, is thus supplied under pressure to the injector by a pipe g and is forced into the boiler. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 2292/85.

Abstract: 191110,223. Still, W. J., and British Still Tube Co. Oct. 27. Metal pipes and tubes.-In a method of expanding a duct a into intimate contact with external gills or plates b by passing through the duct mechanical means such as is shown at i, Fig. 7, gradually increasing the diameter uniformly from end to end at a single operation, the force is transmitted through flanged contacting portions of the gills or plates in order to assist in resisting longitudinal movement of the duct. To this end also the tubes may be flanged as at a<1>. In the example shown in Fig. 7 the actuation is hydraulic. A roller expander may be used. The tubes a as placed in position may be slit longitudinally and have a slight overlap (Fig. 4), the edges abutting after the expanding operation. The tubes may be united to the gills or plates by introducing a fusible mixture in powdered condition between the gills in excess of requirements, vibrating the assembled parts so as to work the material into the joints, and applying heat. The flanged holes in the gills may be produced by a stamp h as in Fig. 3 so as to shape the metal b in part before the hole is punched and thereafter to complete the shape. In a surface apparatus for exchange of heat similarly constructed the vertical tubes a are provided with additional gills b<1> between those b which are flanged at e to form the outer casing. Steam enters at r and water of condensation is removed at u, holes t being provided to permit water to pass from place to place.

Granted: 1912-11-12
Abstract: 18,312. Kohnle, F., and Hunter, G. S. Aug. 12. Stapling.-Relates to apparatus for attaching tickets by means of staples to textile fabrics &c., and having means for printing the tickets. The tickets a, Figs. 9 and 10, are supplied to the machine in the form of a strip, slit as at b between adjacent tickets, and having the staples c previously inserted. The various parts of the machine are actuated from the tubular slide 3, which is connected by a rod 1 to an operating- treadle &c. The strip of tickets is fed over the table 4, with the legs of the staples depending in the recess 5, by means of the pawl 12 mounted on the bell-crank lever 14, which has a recess 16 engaged by a stud 17 on the arm 18 carried by the operating-slide 3. The pawl 12 engages the slits b in the strip, which is guided at its edge by a grooved spring-controlled plate 9 and is prevented from rising by an overlying finger 8 on a plate 7 fixed to the frame. A spring is provided on the face-plate 6, to prevent the last ticket of a strip from dropping off the table before the clinching operation. The tickets are severed from the strip by the knife 22. The staple-clinching mechanism consists of a tubular member 26, Fig. 5, supported by a spring 30 on a pin 28, and having at its upper end a spring- supported block 32 provided with two pivoted clinching dogs 34. This mechanism is operated by a bell-crank lever from the slide 3, the lever having a handle 43 by which it can be thrown out of operation when it is desired to feed the tickets without clinching the staples. When, on its upward movement, the head 32 comes in contact with the fabric to which the tickets are to be attached, it stops, and the further upward movement of the member 26 causes the dogs 34 to be actuated to bend the legs of the staple outwardly, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 9. During clinching, the staples are supported laterally by a spring plunger 41 mounted on the plate 7.
