Title: Improvements in Starting Systems for Internal Combustion Engines.
Inventor: BELL JOHN DALRYMPLE
IPC: F02N99/00
Filed: 1911-09-14
Granted: 1912-06-20
Abstract: 20,376. Bell, J. D. Sept. 14. Starting.-A pump is designed to supply a rich mixture for starting and to dilute it to a suitable strength for explosion. A measured quantity of fuel is supplied to an air-pump by the measuring-valve shown in Fig. 3. Fuel is supplied by a pipe G to the measuring-chamber L containing a piston M, which may be spring controlled. The valve is then turned and the fuel discharged through the orifice D into the pump. The pump first supplies rich mixture, and, after the first one or two strokes, pure air to dilute the charge. The ignition switch is closed from time to time until the charge is weak enough for firing. An indicating-stem N may be fitted to the piston M.

Abstract: 22,837. Speiss, G. Oct. 7. Throw-out arrangements.-A hand-controlled deflector for separating faulty sheets from sheets to be conveyed to printing, folding, and like machines is further controlled by cams which prevent the deflector from being operated except when the sheets are in suitable position. The deflector O is adapted to oscillate into the operative position about an axis carrying a spring- controlled arm Q normally held with the deflector in the inoperative position, as shown, by an arm S<1> of a spring-controlled hand lever S, and a lug T on the axis of the lever S is locked, except at the periods in the progress of the sheets at which the deflector should be operated in order to deflect a sheet, by a spring-controlled pivoted pawl X. As each sheet in passing along with the belt A in view of the operator approaches the deflector, a revolving cam W oscillates the pawl X to release the hand lever S, which can then be moved to release the arm Q and allow the deflector to operate. A cam V returns the arm Q and deflector to the locking position before the next sheet approaches.
