Patent GB-141130-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in and relating to the indicating and controlling mechanism of measuring-instruments
IPC: G01R5/14
Filed: 1919-01-07
Abstract: 141,130. Gardiner, W. C. Jan. 7, 1919. Indicating; modifying scales of readings. - Relates to the restoring-force arrangements of the indicating-mechanism of measuring-instruments wherein the force at the zero reading and at various points on the scale may be varied for obtaining a more or less open scale, and consists in an arrangement whereby the indicating-needle has more than one fulcrum or fulcrum lines and, in the zero position, rests on all its fulcra, while in measuring positions the needle rests on one fulcrum only, the tension of the restoring-spring at zero also being adjustable. The casing 4 of the volt-meter &c. supports the automatic moving element 5 on centres 7. The moving element operates a pointer 8 by means of a slotted arm. The pointer is attached to an inverted-U shaped member 9, the extremities of which are knife-edges resting normally in V- shaped seatings in a support 11 adjustably attached at 12 to the casing. A spring 13, attached to the centre of the member 9 and to an adjusting- screw 14, tends to retain the knife-edges in their seatings. The pointer is adjustable longitudinally and laterally on the member 9 by screws and nuts 16, 17 and 18, 19. In the instrument shown, the zero is central of the scale 15, and the axis of the spring 13 must be normal to a line joining the knife-edges on the member 9 when the needle reads zero. Where the scale has a zero at one end only, the device swings on one knife-edge, the other acting as a zero stop. The support 11 may be inverted and the control device held up by the initial tension of the spring.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Submarine Mines.
IPC: F42B22/16
Filed: 1916-01-15
Abstract: 124,470. Vickers, Ltd., and North, T. K. Jan. 15, 1916. Mines, marine.-Relates to automatic anchoring-devices comprising a spring pawl controlled by a plummet to stop a drum paying out the anchor cable from the anchor, and consists in the provision of a trigger for holding the pawl out of action until the plummet touches bottom, and then holding the pawl in the locked position if the plummet line should be accidentally pulled. As shown in Fig. 1, the pawl A and the trigger B are pivoted at ax, bx respectively on a bracket C. The pawl A is urged by a spring a towards a ratchet wheel A' on the cable drum of the anchor, but is held away by a plunger D, which is withdrawn in a known manner after the first few revolutions of the drum. The trigger B is drawn towards and over a flat a<2> of a pin A<2>, on the pawl A by the pull of the plummet line B<1>, and thus holds the pawl out of action until the plummet touches bottom. A spring b then pulls the trigger away from the pin A<2>, which thereupon locks the ratchet wheel A'. Any accidental pull on the plummet line will again draw the trigger against the pin A<2>, but the trigger will then bear against an oblique side face a<3> of the pin and thus cause the pawl to be more securely held in the locking position.

Patent HK-36987-A (HK)
Title: Device for flushing sewers by siphonic action
Inventor: TEGLUND LARS
IPC: E03F7/00
Filed: 1987-05-07
Abstract: A liquid-plug-creating device includes a collection tank or basin into which liquid flows such as the outflow from sanitary appliances. From the outlet at the bottom of the tank a riser extends upwardly at an acute angle to the horizontal. At the opposite end from the tank outlet, the riser terminates in a bend which reverses the direction of flow through the riser into a downwardly extending vertical pipe. A U-shaped piece of pipe with a horizontal outlet is connected to the lower end of the vertical pipe and provides a special form of trap. When the tank and the riser are completely filled with liquid, any additional liquid added exceeding a minimum flow, causes a liquid seal to be formed in the piece of pipe at the lower end of the vertical pipe. The excess flow creates a vacuum in the vertical pipe which sucks the liquid through the riser out of the tank in the manner of a siphon. The liquid immerges from the device in the form of continuous plugs with high kinetic energy content. The device permits the use of small-diameter pipes in house drainage systems while assuring the required self-cleansing effect, even if water-conserving flush toilets are connected to the device. Other fields of application of the device are irrigation and the metering of liquids in batches.

CONSTITUTION:A receptacle 3 is secured on a receptacle holder 4, and with a vibrator 2 actuated, the receptacle 3 is filled with powder in a hopper 1. An overflowing heap of powder in the receptacle 3 is levelled by a levelling plate 5. In case the weight of the powder contained in the receptacle 3 is measured, the receptacle 3 is taken out and is carried to a balance. In case a tap density is measured, after the receptacle 3 is secured to a receptacle holder, an auxiliary receptacle 7, supported by a finger 8, is lowered by a motor 11 which stops running at a position allowing the receptacle 7 to be coupled to the receptacle 3. The finger 8 is then opened by a motor 12, and the finger 8 is restored to its original position by reversing the motor 11. The container 3 is then filled with the powder, and tapping is performed with a receptacle holder 4 moved vertically. The overflowing heap of the powder is then levelled by a levelling plate 5 to measure the weight of the powder in the receptacle 3.

Title: Paper sheet feeding device
Inventor: TSUKAMURA KIYOSHI
IPC: B01D53/04
Filed: 1992-01-06
Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide a paper sheet feeding device inexpensive, simple in structure and excellent in paper sheet feeding transportability by providing a rotation fulcrum member jointing a first bottom plate and a second bottom plate and furnished with a member free to rotate against the first bottom plate and to restrain the first bottom plate from being inclined by more than a specified angle from the horizontal surface. CONSTITUTION:A second bottom plate 24 comes to be in the fixed state in accordance with weight of a sheet material S, and only a first bottom plate 21 works up to an angle theta2 of a bottom plate 21 against the horizontal surface. When the sheet material S decreases and the first bottom plate 21 tries to rotate by more than the angle theta2, rotation at a rotation fulcrum 23 is restrained by a claw part 30 working for rotational prevention of the second bottom plate 24. That is, even if the claw part 30 forms a restraint part so that even if the first bottom plate 21 tries to incline by more than the angle theta2, from the horizontal line it cannot rotate more than this angle. Consequently, it is possible to specify an approaching angle theta of the sheet material S within a usage allowable range and to increase stability of transportation of a paper sheet feeding device.
