Title: AN Improved Grindstone.
Inventor: DREADON JOHN STURTRIDGE
Filed: 1908-11-03
Granted: 1909-09-23
Abstract: 23,479. Dreadon, J. S. Nov. 3.

Title: A New or Improved Leakage Indicator for Drain Pipes and the like.
Inventor: BUTCHER WILLIAM
Filed: 1908-11-26
Granted: 1909-11-26
Abstract: 25,492. Butcher, W. Nov. 26. Testing draina.-A device for testing drain pipes, locating leakages therein, or ascertaining the fall, and preferably used in conjunction with a stopping - device of the kind described in Specification No. 25,679, A.D. 1907, [Abridgment Class Pipes &c.], comprises a glass tube g with a slotted and graduated metal sheath h, the lower end of the device being put into communication with the interior of the drain-pipe through a tube k and the hollow bolt or cross-head of the stopper a. Cocks o, o<1> are provided. When the fall of the pipes is known, the level to which water from the drain rises in the tube g gives the position of the leak. Conversely, the instrument may be used to ascertain the fall of the pipe by testing a known length. The liquid may be retained in the tube g for reference by closing the cock o. The upper end of the device has a cap with a vent hole closed by a swivel plate n. The lower end has an adjustable foot p. A removable plug r allows the tube g or the drain pipe to be vented if desired. To facilitate transport, the tube g and sheath h may be in sections connected by suitable swivel joints, or, according to the Provisional Specification, by telescopic joints. To enable readings to be taken above ground, a tube with an S-bend d may be used. The position of a liquid indicator in the bend indicates the height of liquid in the tube g below. A graduated quadrant b with a weighted pointer c may be attached to the upper end of the sheath so that the inclination of the pipes may be read directly. According to the Provisional Specification, the quadrant may be pivotally connected to the test tube, or may be fixed to the stopper, in which case the test tube is capable of angular adjustment. A suitable screw plug is used to close the cross-head or bolt of the stopper when it is to be used alone.

Title: Improvements in Devices for Locking the Cylinder Doors of Carding Engines.
Inventor: TURNER ROBERT
IPC: D01G31/00
Filed: 1909-01-20
Granted: 1910-01-20
Abstract: 1362. Turner, R., and Fairclough, J. Jan. 20. Guards, controlling.-Relates to a device for locking the cylinder door of a carding-engine to prevent the opening of the door as long as the cylinder is rotating, and to prevent the return of the belt on to the fast pulley, to re-start the cylinder, until the door is closed. A sliding bar a, Fig. 1, connected to the door lever h by a rod f, carries at its free end a yielding piece c of leather &c., which, when the door is closed, abuts against the cord pulley d or the driving- shaft e slightly below its centre. As long as the shaft e rotates, the piece c and the bar a are held down against the action of a spring n. A rod p carrying a slotted plate q, which embraces the strap-fork stud t is jointed to the bar a. The movement of the belt fork to transfer the belt on to the loose pulley removes a pin v out of a hole in the plate q and frees the rod p. When the shaft e stops rotating, the bar a is raised by the spring n and is free to be moved by the opening of the door. The plate q acts as an obstruction to the pin v, to prevent the return of the belt on to the fast pulley until the door is closed. The rod p may be connected rigidly to the bar a, and the yielding piece c may be connected to a hinged piece at the end of the bar a and controlled directly by a spring. When applied to a carding-engine with a pivoted belt fork or shifter, the bar a, Fig. 9, enters a casing i behind the pulley, and is locked by its end abutting against the arm s carrying the strap-fork, and by the flexible piece, c in contact with the rotating pulley and held by it in a groove x in the rod. The transfer of the belt on to the loose pulley moves the arm s out of the path of the rod a and the stoppage of the pulley allows the piece c to be raised by a spring or weight. The bar a is then free to move as the door is opened.

Abstract: 7140. Ayling, G. F. March 25. Bookbinding.-Relates to a method of rebinding much-used books, applicable also to the binding of new books issued in single sheets, such as plans, maps, &c. With old books, the cover is removed, and the back edges are cut off by a guillotine, thus transforming the folded sections into single sheets. This surface is glued, and, when it is dry, saw-cuts are made for the final kettle-stitch sewing. The block of sheets is then divided into a number of sections which are separately lock-stitched close to the back edge. This stitching is rolled into the paper, and the sections are then finally sewn together.
