Granted: 1912-06-12
Abstract: 9151. Wilson, G. April 12. Pressure-regulating valves; valves closing with rush of fluid; pressure-relieving devices for fluids.-A combined gas governor and automatic safety gas cut-off is arranged so that, as the pressure rises in the outlet, one valve tends to close the port, while, when the pressure falls, another valve tends to close the same port. The valves E<1>, E<2>, E<3>, E<4> mounted on the spindle Fare controlled by a diaphragm D, which takes up its load L only after rising beyond a predetermined point. The weights are supported by a hollow stud G, which also serves as a guide to the valve spindle and a vent passage to the diaphragm chamber C<1>. A bypass is arranged between the inlet and outlet so that, when a leak at the outlet side has been stopped, the pressure in the outlet again rises until the valve opens. In Figs. 1 and 2, the by-pass is shown in the valve spindle, and in Fig. 1 surrounding a spindle-guide M. A safety liquid seal 0, Fig. 3, may be connected by a pipe R to the vent opening C<4> and to the valve outlet through a pipe o<2> dipping into mercury. Any undue pressure in the outlet is relieved through the seal and produces a pressure above the diaphragm tending to close the valve, the released gas gradually escaping to atmosphere through a restricted orifice Q<2>. The diaphragm may be replaced by a bell, the weight loading by spring loading, or the lift valves by sliding or piston valves.

Blowing; shearing; delivering molten metal -An apparatus for making glass hollow-ware consists of a number of separate glass-working machines a, Fig. 16, each arranged below a delivery opening in a working tank m<1>. All the machines a are operated by a common se of rods h<1>, n<1>, n<2>, n<3>, e<5>, which are actuate( by a single central control mechanism M. In this, two cam cylinders are provided which are rotated at intervals from the main driving-gear through the medium of two clutches r<9>, s<9> Fig. 15, respectively. A continually rotating wheel t is fitted with adjustable dogs u<1>, u<2> and curved plates v<1>, v<2>, v<3>, which operate the clutches r<9>, s<9> and hence control the cam cylinders and machines connected with them. The duration of the various operations is adjusted to suit the properties of the molten metal employed by altering the positions of the parts u<1>, u<2>, v<1>, v<2>, v<3>. The moulding-mechanism is of the turnover type as shown in Fig. 1. A vacuum is employed in forming the neck of the article. The metal discharged from the hole m<2>, Fig. 1, into the parison mould a is cut off by shears m<3>, and the metal in the hole is forced back into the tank m<1> by compressed air from a nozzle o, which is swung into position below the hole m<2>.
