Granted: 1911-11-30
Abstract: 16,519. Sims, F. L. H. July 18. Bolts.-A slotted bolt for railway rail joints &c., for use with a tapered key, is bent from a blank a, Fig. 5, of half-round or semi-elliptical metal, and in the finished form has a longitudinal division G, Fig. 1, extending from the head A to the slot B. The blank has a protuberance b which forms the end of the bolt and a cut-away portion c forming the slot. The underside of the blank, opposite to the protuberance b, may be hollowed out. The end of the slot remote from the head of the bolt is bevelled to fit the key C. Projections H on the sides of the bolt fit closely in a hole in the angleplate D, and prevent the bolt from turning when the end of the key is bent down. A projection e on the bolt-head indicates the correct position in which the bolt should be inserted in the bolthole.

Abstract: 27,665. Maw, P. T. Dec. 2. [Cognate Applications, 28,711/12 and 29.910/12.] Mud-guards carried by wheels.-In a revolving protecting-device for that kind of vehicle-wheel splash-guard comprising an apron -or the like carried by a non-revolving rod or framework, this rod or framework is arranged in a deep groove formed by the wheel and the revolving protecting-device so that no part of the rod or framework projects below the lowest part of the said device. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, a ring g protecting the rod m of the splash-guard is detachably secured to the rim z<3> of a skeleton wheel with a hub z, spokes z<1>, and a wooden rim z<2>, this rim being secured to brackets n, n<1> bolted to the rim c of the road wheel. As applied to a driving-wheel, the hub z is keyed onto the main axle; but when applied to a front wheel the hub may be loosely mounted on the non-rotating stub-axle, or both the road wheel and guard wheel may be mounted on a sleeve or long hub rotating on the stub-axle. By removing the ring g, the rim z<3> may be used to take a spare rim and tyre. The apron rod ends m<1>, m<2> are carried round to the back of the wheel, where they are fixed to a ring or collar m<4> freely mounted on the axle but prevented from rotating by connexions with a fixed part of the frame ; or, for a front wheel, the ends may be secured to the stub-axle or. its attachment, or otherwise, so that the mud-guard always occupies the same position relative to the face of the wheel. The ring g may be shod with rubber. To prevent further the rod m from being damaged, small rollers r upon bolts r' passing through the brackets n, n<1> are so placed that if the rod receive a blow the rollers provide support. In cases in which the rollers are not used, the bottom part of the rod need not be curved. The skeleton wheel z-z<3> may be omitted, and a plain ring g may then be secured upon the outwardly-turned ends of the bracket portions n, n<1>. The skeleton wheel, keyed to the axle or hub, may also be used without the brackets n, n<1>, and further, if it is not desired to make the ring g detachable it may be replaced by the rim z<3> of a larger skeleton wheel. The forward part of the apron rod may be carried upwards and then across the face of the tyre so that there is no rigid framework in front of the lower half of the wheel. The protecting-ring may be attached to and project from the face of the wheel. According to the Provisional Specifications, the apron rod is continued upwards on either side to points above the lower half of the wheel so that there is also no rigid framework behind that portion of the wheel, The lower part of the apron rod may be horizontal, the skeleton wheel may be connected to the rim or spokes of the road wheel, and the apron rod need not project beyond the road wheel.

Abstract: 28,378. Goss Printing Press Co., Raabe, O. L., and Terrey, A. Dec. 9. Printing - surfaces. - Relates to means for clamping the printing - plates on cylinders adapted to carry more than two plates end to end, of the kind comprising loose intermediate clamps whereby the inner plates can be positioned without the outer plates and can be secured for use without the use of dummy plates in the outer position. The inner plate B<1> abuts against the central ring and is held by a clamp C' locked up against the plate by the outer plate B which is secured by a clamp C on a screw c<Î>. In order to permit of the inner plates being placed in position without the outer plates, the clamps C<1> are furnished with screws c, the head of each of which abuts against a stud a. The head of the screw is formed with means for turning it, with a slot c<3> to allow it to pass over the pin a when the clamp is being moved up against the plate, and a cam-surface c<2> which abuts against the stop a and forces the clamp up to the plate B'. When no plate is being used in the outer position, the clamp C<1> is operated by the engagement of the screw c<Î> with the head c<1> of the screw c. In order to raise the outer plate B when it is unclamped, a nut c<4Î> is fitted on the screw c<Î> to which are pivoted two arms c<2Î> which, when the clamp C is withdrawn, engage stops a<Î> and are thereby tilted to lift the plate.

Abstract: 20,512. Fischer & Co., vorm. H. L³tke, R. E. Aug. 5, [Convention date]. Envelopes, making.- In order to facilitate the making of envelopes of different sizes in one machine, the blanks are folded in two stages. Three flaps are folded in the first stage, and the blank is then conveyed to another set of folders, where the fourth flap is folded. The mould frame, through which the blank is pressed by the plunger 18, consists of two side pieces 8 adjustably connected to an end piece 3. The fourth side of the frame is open, the usual remaining end piece being replaced by short lugs 10 adjustably secured to the side pieces 8. The lugs 10 are at a little distance from the path of the plunger 18 so that they turn up the flap without sharply creasing it. The three flaps are folded on the bed 2 by pivoted wings 6, 16 of usual construction, and the envelope is then fed under a strip 26 by means of a revolving roller 22, which periodically projects through an opening in the folding-bed 2. The feeding of the envelope is continued by a foot 34 pivoted to a reciprocating cross-head C. The foot, during its movement towards the envelope, is held up by a pawl 36, which, when released by a projection 39, allows the foot to fall on the envelope. The envelope is fed against an adjustable stop 44 on a pivoted folding-table 42, and a gripper 41 mounted on a reciprocating carriage 46 holds the envelope against the table 42. A folder 40 then folds over the remaining flap, and the table 42 swings down to eject the finished envelope.

Abstract: 7446. La Fontaine, L. March 24. Life-boats.-Life-boats, of the kind comprising an outer cylindrical shell having conical ends and an oscillatory passenger car suspended within the shell, are fitted with windows and ventilators, normally open, but adapted to be closed when the life-boat rolls, by means of the upper side of the car. The car is approximately semicircular in shape and runs on ribs 7 on the outer shell 1, which are engaged by circular T-shaped rings 9 attached to the car 6. Means are provided to lock the car to the shell when in calm water. Look-outs 11 are fitted, together with a search-light 13. Sliding doors 30 provide a means of entrance to the vessel. The windows 34 are normally held open by a spring 42 and are arranged to be closed by means of the car when undue rolling takes place. This is effected by means of a lever 41 pivoted to the shell and the window 34 and having on its inner end a roller 39 which engages the side of the car when the vessel rolls, closing the windows 34. Ventilators 44 at the upper part of the shell are similarly operated by the movement of the car. In this case, the springs 45 tend to close the cover against the action of a pivoted strut 46. Hinged platforms 32 and life-lines 33 are fitted to the sides of the hull. The keel consists of an obtuse V-shaped construction as shown in Fig. 4, divided longitudinally.

Abstract: 14,670. Dawson, H. A. June 18. Tokens, holding and issuing; registering number of.-A machine for issuing admission checks and registering the number issued has a notched slide 25 moved backwards by a hell-crank lever 16 to receive the check 1; the slide is returned by the lever pressing against the check, the depressions 2 in which are engaged by the projections 30 in the slide. A counter 5 is operated on the return stroke, so that if no check is present no registration will occur. The check is moved by the return movement of the slide over a notched hole 10 in the bottom plate 8 and falls through when the notches register with the check; this affords a means of preventing the issue of checks of incorrect value in which the depressions are different. The checks are stored in a detachable tube 3, which is locked in position by the cover 40 of the counter.
