Title: Improvements in Steelyard Weighing Machines.
Inventor: AVERY WILLIAM BEILBY
Filed: 1895-05-22
Granted: 1896-04-18
Abstract: 10,108. Avery, W. B. May 22. Printing-apparatus combined with weighing - apparatus. - In steelyard weighing - apparatus, in which the counterpoises on the yard rotate the printing-wheels by means of rack and pinion gear, the yard 21 has secured to it, over the fulcrum 20, a bracket 22 with a pin 24, on which the :printing-wheels 23 with their, accompanying pinions 25 are mounted. By means of racks 26, 27, 28 the counterpoises rotate the printing-wheels. The numerals are arranged on the said wheels, as shown in Fig. 14, so that they may be made of much smaller diameter than if the numerals are arranged in natural order. The weight of the article is impressed on a ticket 36 introduced through a slot 51, and on a record strip 35, by drawing the roller 34 across the printing-wheels. The said roller is carried by a pin 42, the ends of which move in grooves or races 43 in a box 38, which is pressed downwards by springs 41. The printing is effected by a handlever 37, which is connected to the pin 42 by links 44. When the pin has reached the end of the lower portion of the race, it is thrown upwards by a spring 45 so that it travels along the upper portion, the roller being then out of action with the ticket. A pawl 46 engaging with a rack 47 prevents the roller from being moved in the wrong direction along the race.

Title: Starting Device for Oil Engines.
Inventor: STROH LOUIS
Filed: 1897-02-03
Granted: 1897-03-13
Abstract: 2849. Stroh, L. Feb. 3. Gas or explosivevapour e n g i n e s, starting. The cylinder A is first exhausted by turning the three-way cock B so that the cylinder is open to the ejector C and allowing air under pressure from the pipe a to pass the cock c, through the pipe b, and escape through the nozzle 2. The vacuum formed in the cylinder causes oil to enter through the valve d and become vaporized, and air to enter by the valve e. The cock B is then turned so that the air from the pipe a enters the cylinder ; the resulting increase of pressure causes the charge to ignite. To prevent the compressed air from propelling the piston before ignition, the flywheel E is held by a spring catch f on a lever g that engages a notch h in the wheel. The spring i is strong enough to withstand the pressure of the air, but not the explosion.

Title: Improvements in Apparatus for Filling, Transporting, and Registering Packages, and Compressing the Materials therein.
Inventor: NICKERSON WILLIAM EMERY
Filed: 1897-02-22
Granted: 1897-10-02
Abstract: 4772. Nickerson, W. E. Feb. 22. Packeting, machines for. Three-sided chambers F are mounted on balanced levers E on an intermittently-rotating table B driven by friction gear at the top of the shaft B<3>. Empty packets are placed by hand into the chambers as they pass an operative. The packets come successively beneath the shoot of an automatic weighing-machine, where they are arrested by a balanced lever C engaging a stop D on the table. The weight of the material when it has entered the packet depresses the balanced lever E and causes it to disengage the lever C and permit the table to make a partial rotation. The packet ultimately comes beneath a rammer J; here it is arrested by a spring lever L which engages it slightly before C arrests the chamber at the weighing-machine. The rammer J in descending carries with it a rod J<5> which through toggle mechanism closes the chamber by a door K. This door, shown in plan in Fig. 11, has arms K<2> which embrace the chamber and close the hinged side F<4>, which is normally thrown back to permit the free exit of the packet. At the bottom of its stroke the rod J<5> disengages the lever L and permits the table to move slightly until the lever C arrests it. On the up-stroke the door K is withdrawn, and on the chamber moving to the next station the plate M, Fig. 11, thrusts the packet out on to an endless band S. The plate M is operated by a cam N<4>, Fig. 2, engaging a crank-pin N<3> on the vertical shaft N<1>, to an arm N of which the plate is attached. The chamber is supported from below during ramming. A cam B<4> prevents the levers E from oscillating except when opposite the weighing-machine. The driving- mechanism is shown in Figs. 13, 14, and 16. The shaft B<3> is driven through friction discs Q, Q<1>, the upper of which runs continuously. The crank J<2> of the rammer is operated intermittently by a continuously-running toothed wheel P, which engages the pawl P<2>, when the projection P<9> on the latter is forced to the left by a tooth Q<5> on the disc Q<1> engaging its right-hand side, just as Q is brought to rest by the lever L, Fig. 2. By this means, P<2>, its lever P<1>, and the crank J<2> are carried through a complete revolution and disengaged when P<9> strikes the opposite side of the tooth Q<5> as shown in Fig. 14. The projection is held in the exact position to engage the teeth Q<5> by spring clips R, R<1> which engage the crank J<2>. The endless band is stretched by a weighted lever, and is driven by passing round a number of rollers geared together ; the end rollers are loose. Operatives on each side of the band fold and label the packets as they are fed to them. They then pass them through doors on to another travelling band in a casing which conveys them away. On entering the casing each packet passes a turnstile, which it operates after first lifting a detent to release it counters attached to the turnstiles register the work done by each operative.
