Title: Improvements in gas purifying by filtering
IPC: B01D46/02
Filed: 1939-02-25
Abstract: 514,236. Filtering gases. SOC. LILLOISE DE MATERIEL DE CHEMINS DE FER LA LILLOISE. Feb. 25, 1939, No. 6319. Convention date, May 13, 1938. [Class 8 (ii)] In order to prevent clogging of the filters during the filtering of a gas such as producer gas due to the condensation of vapour thereon, the filters are heated. This may be done electrically, but in the arrangement shown, a portion of the gas coming from the producer through the pipe 7 is bye-passed through a pipe 17 for this purpose, the remainder passing through a cooler from which it is delivered from an opening 12 in a pipe 9 into the filtering apparatus 11. This comprises two vertical tubes 26 opening at their upper ends into a chamber 20 connected by a passage 19 to the pipe 17 which is controlled by a valve 18. A central tube 35 is connected at its lower end to the outlet pipe 41 leading to the engine, and at its upper end opens into a chamber 24 situated beneath the chamber 20 and connected by annular passages 33 with gauze filters 33a to the spaces outside the pipes 26. To the lower ends of the outside walls 32 of the passage 33 are connected the upper ends of the filter cloths 30, the lower ends being connected by collars 31 to the tubes 26. Between the filters and the tubes 26 layers of wire gauze, iron straws or like heat-conducting material are placed. Perforated sheet-metal discs 44, 45, 46 are fixed to the vertical tubes. The hot gas passes down the pipes 26 and heats the filters through which the cold gas is passing into the chamber 24 and pipe 35. When it leaves the lower ends of the pipes 26 the hot gas will mix with the cold gas so that its moisture will condense, and by impact with the discs 44-46, the larger dustparticles will be removed. The filtering-devices are rotatably mounted at their upper and lower ends 16, 38 respectively, so that by means of a handle 53 dust can be shaken off the filters. Emptying and inspection covers 13, 14, respectively, are provided for the apparatus.

Title: Improvements relating to control apparatus for battery operated vehicles
IPC: B60L3/00
Filed: 1936-03-02
Abstract: 468,720. Interlocked controllers ; twopart couplings combined with switches. MILLAR, G. H., GRAY, W. T., and METROPOLITAN-VICKERS ELECTRICAL CO., Ltd. March 2, 1936, No. 6323. [Class 38 (iii)] [Also in Group XXXVI] Control apparatus for a battery-operated vehicle having a socket 12 adapted to receive a charging plug, a combination drum 6 for changing the battery connections for running or charging, and an accelerating drum 3, is provided with interlock means for preventing movement of the combination drum except when the accelerating drum is in the " off " position, interlock means whereby the accelerating drum can only be moved from the " off " position or such movement is only effective when the combination drum is in a running position, and interlock means whereby the charging plug cannot be inserted unless the combination drum is in the charging position. and when inserted, locks the combination drum in this position. In the arrangement shown, the apparatus is located beneath the driver's seat, and the combination drum gives parallel connection of the batteries for slow running forward or reverse, and series connection for charging or fast forward running. The accelerating drum 3 is carried by a shaft 2 connected through a rack drive to a heel-operated pedal 1. The drum 6 is carried by a shaft 5 connected to a lever 4 which is linked to a control lever. The shafts 2, 5 carry Ranges 9, 11, the paths of which intersect in order to provide the interlock between the two drums. The charging socket 12 has an opening 13 normally covered by a shutter 14 mounted on a spindle 15 with operating handle 16. The shaft 5 carries a disc 18 which normally lies in the path of a finger 17 on the shaft 15 and prevents movement of the shutter, but when the drum 6 is in the charging position, the finger 17 is opposite a notch 19 in the disc, and the shaft 15 can be rotated to uncover the charging socket. While the finger is in engagement with the notch, the drum 6 is locked, so that it cannot be moved until the charging plug has been withdrawn and the shutter 14 has been moved to its screening position. A roller 21 carried by a pair of pivoted arms 20 under the control of a spring 23 is adapted to engage notches 22 in the disc 18 to hold the combination drum in the position to which it is moved by the control lever.

The space between strainer 30 and casings 31 and 32 is separated by walls 39 into cells 40, each cell having an outlet 42 and the discharge ducts 44 from all the outlets being formed by helical partitions 45 between casing 32 and drum 35. The ducts 44 emerge into the open space between the outer end portions of casing 32 and drum 35. In Figs. 5 and 7 cells 55 formed by partitions 56 have a flat V shape according to Specification 710,478 and are narrowed down at the left-hand end by an inner cover 62 under which helical partitions 61, Fig. 7, provide discharge ducts 60 from outlets 65 formed by the axially inner edge of the cover 62 and the innermost casing 51. In each embodiment, two discharge ducts from each cell may be provided-one to each end of the drum. Specification 730,917 also is referred to.
