Title: Improvements in or relating to Electric Railway Systems.
Inventor: STUART KENNETH EMMONS
IPC: B60L15/00
Filed: 1912-02-05
Granted: 1913-05-05
Abstract: 2957. Stuart, K. E. Feb. 5. Indicating movements of trains. - In an electric railway system suitable for the despatch of mails &c. in which the cars carry no motormen, automatic means are provided whereby the operator at the station receives an indication of the position of every car between his station and the next station on each side. The fields of the car motors receive their energy from a sectioned track conductor T1 each section of which is permanently connected to the positive supply main through a solenoid S11. When a car passes on to any of these sections, the corresponding solenoid is energized and operates a relay whereby contacts W3 are connected and contacts W6 disconnected. The closure of any of the contacts W3 connects the corresponding conductors 50 ... 65 to the positive main. thus lighting the corresponding lamps L1 ... L14 on the station indication board and thereby giving to the station operator an indication of the sections engaged by cars. Each of the conductors 50 ... 65 is also connected to the return rail through the solenoid S12 of the relay in the next rear section so that. when the cars pass on to the next forward section, the circuit of the indicating-lamp for the section they have just left is broken. In order that an operator at a station may know as each car approaches whether or not it is to stop at his station, means, as described in Specification 3588/13, are provided on the cars whereby, when the train is to stop, a roller thereon is automatically caused to engage a selective rail and light a lamp L68. The circuit of this lamp is broken when the car passes the short insulated rail I73.

Granted: 1912-07-11
Abstract: 6213. Shephard, J. W., and Jones, F. A. March 12. Dirt and the like, excluding. - In order to exclude dirt from the outlet of a tap, a cover is provided which normally closes the outlet but which is automatically removed when the tap is actuated. As shown in Fig. 1, a guard 12 is hinged to the tap at 12<b> and is maintained in contact with a seat 9, clamped to the outlet of the tap, by a spring arm 13 secured to the plug 4 of the valve by a nut 8. When the plug 4 is rotated, the arm 13 is removed from the guard 12 which then opens under the influence of a spring 12<c>. When the plug 4 is again closed, the arm 13 abuts against the guard 12 and presses it against the seat 9. The seat 9 may be formed integral with the mouth of the tap. Fig. 5 shows a modified form of spring arm consisting of two similar members 13, for use in taps in which the valve plug is rotated in the same direction both in opening and closing. Fig. 6 shows another form of spring arm in which the two ends are inserted in tubular holes in a plate 23<c> having a central aperture 23b by which it is secured to the lower end of the valve plug.

Title: Improvements in Weight Recording Devices for Weighing Machines.
Inventor: DENISON SAMUEL
IPC: G01G23/00
Filed: 1912-12-12
Granted: 1913-10-09
Abstract: 28,626. Denisson, S. Dec. 12. [Addition to 22,484/11.] Printing-apparatus combined with weighing- apparatus.-In the weighing machine described in the parent Specification, wherein a locking- bolt or equivalent engages the end of the steelyard and is connected with printing-mechanism so as to prevent a record being printed unless the steelyard is in equilibrium, the steelyard poises are manipulated directly by hand, but printing is rendered impossible until the steelyard has been completely enclosed by the closure of a door. The printing-handle F can be operated to obtain a record only after the withdrawal from the path of the printing handle of a projection F<1> carried by a sliding bolt F<2>. After adjustment of the poises 1, 2, 3, to bring the steelyard into equilibrium, a door C, in this case of the revolving type, is rotated to enclose the steelyard. The bolt F<2> under the influence of a spring enters a recess in the end C<1> of the door, and two pivoted jaws G, G', connected to the bolt by a link G<4>, enter a hole in the end of the steelyard. This movement of the bolt F<2> sufficiently withdraws the projection F<1> to permit of the printing operation. When the door C is re-opened the bolt F<2> and the jaws G, G<1> are returned and the printing-handle F is again locked. According to the Provisional Specification, a supplementary poise unconnected with the printing type may be used to give a finer balance to the steelyard, and a tooth on the printing-lever may be arranged to prevent printing unless the poises are positioned in their notches.

Title: Improvements in Automatic Timing Apparatus particularly applicable to the Regulation of the Stoking of Boiler Furnaces and the like.
IPC: G08B7/06
Filed: 1913-06-07
Granted: 1914-03-26
Abstract: 13,228. Evershed & Vignoles, Kilroy, W. D., and Needham, J. C. June 7. Time - alarms. - Relates to improvements in apparatus for signalling the time for stoking boiler furnaces &c., as described in Specifications 11,698/02 and 17,141/11, in which a timing-apparatus is used to send currents periodically to an in. dicator in each stokehold to move it step by step to display the f urnace numbers in turn, an electric bell being rung at each change of indication. The bells are caused to give more than one stroke by an interrupter in their circuit controlled by the timing- device, and comprising a magnet which, when energized, rotates a toothed disk, controlled by a fan or an eddycurrent brake or the like, which rocks a lever to press together a pair of springs, separate pairs of springs being operated by the lever during the advance and return of the armature, or a separate switch moved by the disk serving to direct the impulses to one or other of the two sets of bells. In a modification, the interruptions are produced by a self - interrupter, the circuit for which is closed for a definite period at each operation of the timing-device. The bell, Fig. 6, comprises two gongs W, W<1>, the latter struck by the hammer V when the armature S is attracted, the former when the spring s retracts the armature S, the inertia carrying the hammer V past its rest position. Two improved forms of indicator are described. In the form shown in Fig. 6, the indicator spindle carries a ratchet-cam h and a detentdisk K. The ratchet-cam is rotated by the pawl g on the armature lever f, the tooth m preventing overdrive, and the detent-disk, in conjunction with the spring-pressed roller-arm n, serves to ensure a complete movement. In the form shown in Fig. 8, the armature B of the magnet F has teeth adjacent to a pair of the pole-pieces of the second armature K which is fast on the indicator spindle; when the magnet is energized, the armature B is rotated and carries the armature K with it, but on deenergization only the armature B is spring- returned, a detent - disk serving to hold the armature K.

Granted: 1914-05-07
Abstract: 17,513. Weidmann-Meyer & Co., G. July 31, 1912, [Convention date]. Starting and stopping, automatic.-In a vacuum cleaning-installation, the suction is produced by an ejector to which water is supplied from the main A by a hollow piston valve F moving in a casing D. Two apertures J in the cover of the casing put the chamber L above the piston in communication with the piping S. When the outlet from the piping S is closed, pressure water which has passed through the bore M in the piston accumulates in the chamber L and acting on the larger face 1 of the two faces 1, 2 forces the piston to its lower seating, cutting off the water supply to the ejector. When a valve U in any compartment is turned so as to place the piping S in communication with the waste pipe T, the pressure in the chamber L is relieved and a spring P raises the piston and allows water to flow to the ejector.
