Patent GB-1300011-A (GB)
Title: Web registry control apparatus
Inventor: CALLAN JOHN GURNEY
IPC: B65H23/02
Filed: 1971-01-01
Abstract: 1300011 Registering webs KNOX Inc 1 Jan 1971 129/71 Heading B8R Apparatus for transverse registering of a continuously moving web 12, Fig. 1, comprises a pair of rollers 22, 23 mounted on a frame 15 which is pivotally mounted on a vertical pivot 18 and actuated by a fluid piston cylinder assembly 28, 30 under the control of a threeway valve 42 actuated in turn by pressure differentials applied through lines 61, 62 to the ends of the valve, the pressure differentials being produced by transverse displacement of the web with respect to first and second sensing zones defined by fluid jet orifices in a sensing head 55. The sensing head has a first sensing zone defined by ports 74, 66, Fig. 3, associated with respective orifices 92, 102, a second sensing zone defined by ports 78 and 76, 64 and associated with respective orifice 118 and 106, 112, and a null zone disposed between the first and second zones and corresponding to the registry. The sensing head is connected to fluid supply means by conduits 70, 71, 72 such that when the web is in the null zone a jet from orifice 92 passes into the orifice 102 and a jet from orifice 106 passes into the orifice 112, the orifices 102, 112 being connected through lines 61, 62 to the ports 67, 68, Fig. 6, of the valve 42 and since both jets act on the respective diaphragms 126a, 126b of the valve no pressure differential is produced and hence the registering device is not actuated. The jet passing from the orifice 106 to the orifice 112 is adapted to be deflected by the jet from orifice 118 when the web edge has moved from the null zone towards the free end of the sensing head uncovering the bore 110 which allows the jet from the orifice to enter the bore and disrupt the jet passing between the orifices 106, 112, whereby a pressure differential is applied to the valve port 68 by the orifice 102 and the valve plunger 134 is displaced towards the valve port 67 and fluid pressure is applied to the cylinder chamber 36 through line 40. Displacement of the web in the opposite direction causes the jet issuing from the orifice 92 to be interrupted whilst the jet issuing from the orifice 106 is enabled to register a pressure differential at the diaphragm 126a associated with the valve port 67. In consequence fluid is admitted to the opposite cylinder chamber 34. Respective other chambers are vented through discharge ports 47, 48 formed by adjustable sintered discs.

Title: Improvements in and relating to resilient supports
IPC: F16F1/54
Filed: 1939-01-18
Abstract: 524,258. Resilient supports. JULIEN, M. F. A. Jan. 18, 1939, Nos. 175/40 and 176/40. Convention dates, Jan. 27, 1938. Divided out of 524,203. [Class 108 (iii)] Two circular frames 1a, 2a, Fig. 1, are separated by resilient material 3a which is adhesively connected to both, so that it is subjected to shear stress when relative movement of the frames occurs parallel to their planes, and to compression or tension when movement at right angles thereto occurs. The frames are connected by bolts 20a, 20b to an engine or vibrating body, and to the support. The frames are provided with cylindrical rims 4d, 5d, the intervening space being partly filled with resilient material 7c, 7d enclosing a wedge-shaped space 8d. When the material 3a is subjected to shear, a progressively increasing resistance to movement is provided by the gradual closing of the space 8d. In a modification the progressive resistance is provided by alternate projections and depressions 7f, 8e, Fig. 4, in place of the space 8d. In another modification, the axes of the bolts 20a, 20b are displaced so that they come into line only when the support is under load. In another modification, the frames 1a, 2a are rectangular. In another modification Fig. 7, one member 2h is embedded in the resilient material 3d, which is enclosed in a casing 21a. The wedge-shaped spaces 8g, 8'g provide the same conditions of progressively increasing resistance to movement

Title: Improvements in or relating to straight bar knitting machines
IPC: D04B11/00
Filed: 1946-01-03
Abstract: 630,851. Knitting-machines. BLACKBURN & SONS, Ltd., G., COOPER, W. A., and START, E. Jan. 3, 1946, No. 214. [Class 74 (ii)] A straight-bar machine has some of the jack sinkers 1 formed with recesses 2 which receive yarn introduced to the needles by an incoming carrier 3 to enable the sinker in conjunction with the sinker bed 10 to sever the yarn extending from the selvedge to a cleat 6 which anchors the end of the yarn when the carrier is in an inoperative position. As described in connection with the production of a stocking, recessed sinkers 1 are provided at the selvedge ends of the needle row required for the welt and at spaced intervals therebetween to correspond with the selvedges or edges of the narrower leg and high splice portions. When a yarn is introduced a recessed sinker is projected under control of pattern mechanism to receive the yarn extending between the cleat and the carrier. The sinker is then withdrawn by the normal action of the catch bar and the edge of the recess co-operates with the front edge of the sinker bed to sever the yarn. A recessed sinker is also provided at a position midway of the width of the blank to sever the last course of the toe centrally and thereby reduce the tendency of the yarn to be unravelled. Mechanism is described whereby the jacks receive an additional movement when the sinkers are to be projected or alternatively the sinker butts may vary in height and the catch-bar be so positioned and shogged as to project the relevant sinkers at the appropriate time. Specification 605,248 is referred to.

[Also in Division E2] A member, e.g. a beam 10 carrying a moving coil, is pivotally mounted on a support member 11 by flexible mounting means 12 the opposite ends of which are secured to the two members and part of which overlies the support member, the flexible mounting means being adapted to buckle laterally (see Fig. 4) to absorb shocks, &c., which produce movement of its ends towards one another. Preferably a second identical mounting means 13 is provided. The means 12 comprises a flange 30 secured to the beam 10 by a large headed rivet 16 and connected by a short narrow flexible portion 31 to a relatively long, wide portion 32 terminating in a portion 33 which is adjustably clamped to the support member 11 by rivets 36, 37. The portion 32 overlies the support member and is provided with two tabs 34, 35 which, together with the portion 31, are held firmly against the support member in a manner permitting movement parallel thereto by a retainer 50. The latter comprises a thin spring sheet bent as shown to provide a pressure portion 56 and a body portion 52 which is clamped, so as to preload the retainer, between spacers 54, 55 by the rivets 36, 37. If the mounting means is subjected to a compressive load the portion 32 will buckle within its elastic limit, excessive buckling being prevented by contact between the beam 10 and the edge 38 of the support member. Stops are provided to limit the movement of the beam in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the mounting means. In a modification (Fig. 7, not shown) the retainer 50 is a rigid member.
