Title: Improvements in or relating to grinding machines
IPC: B24B41/04
Filed: 1948-03-31
Abstract: 650,383. Grinding-machines. CINCINNATI MILLING MACHINE CO. March 31, 1948, No. 9084. Convention date, April 12, 1947. [Class 60] [Also in Groups XXIV, XXVI and XXXIV] A grinding-machine comprises a spindle 12 journalled in a support 16, means 56 for rigidly clamping a resiliently mounted journal for one end of the spindle, an automatic balancing mechanism carried by the spindle and including hydraulically-releasable balancing elements 98, and means 62 for effecting successive releasing movements of a control device which is movable into one position for unclamping the journal, and into a second position for unclamping the balancing elements hydraulically. An assembly unit carrying the spindle 12 is mounted in a bore 14 in the machine frame 10. The spindle 12 is supported at its forward end by a bushing 77 and rocking shoes 78 carried by a sleeve 53 which is normally clamped in the bore 14 by the pin 56. The sleeve 53 is unclamped by manually turning the pinion 62 to move a cam-bar 59 against a stop 71 to release the pin 56. The sleeve 53 is then resiliently supported from the sleeve 16 by a series of rods 79 and tubes 80. The rear end of the spindle is supported to pivot about a centre 102 by spherically-seated bearings 21,22 and rocking shoes 18. A driving pulley 31 is mounted at the rear end of the spindle about the centre 102. The spindle 12 is bored at 88 to receive a piston 90 which is acted upon by a spring 92 to clamp the three balancing elements or balls 98 against a resilient washer 97. Pressure fluid is supplied by a pump P, the minimum pressure being controlled by a valve 48 and the unclamping of the sleeve 53 and the balls 98 by a valve 50. The valve 50 is actuated by a cam 51 on the end of the pinion shaft 62. Initial movement of the shaft 62 therefore releases the sleeve 53 and partially releases the valve 50; further movement depressed the stop 70 against a spring 76 allowing a spring 52 to raise the pressure in the fluid system and move the piston 90 to release the balls 98. The spindle, being rotated above its critical speed, is balanced automatically by the balls 98 which, together with the sleeve 53 are then reclamped. The pump P also serves to lubricate the shoes 78 and 18 via the tubes 80 and a passage 37 respectively. The assembly may be removed and inserted into the bore 14 in the opposite direction, the opposite end of the cam-bar 59 then being effective. A vibration indicator is provided. U.S.A. Specification 2,142,021 is referred to in the Specification as open to in spection. under Sect. 91.

IPC: C23C2/02
Filed: 1925-04-06
Abstract: 253,275. Wade, H., (Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co.). April 6, 1925. Tinning, galvanizing, and coating by dipping.-To prevent crystallization of the coating on articles, the articles leaving the coating bath are deflected by a hood 5 on to a conveyer 6 passing over rollers 7, 8 where they are heated by burners 16, located near the roller 7 and also if desired, by burners 17. The coated article is then conveyed through a leer or tunnel 9 having a supporting sheet 10 for the conveyer 6. To produce a gradually decreasing temperature in the leer 9 so as gradually to cool the coated article, a series of transversely-arranged burners 12 provided with controlling valves are arranged under the sheet 10.

Abstract: 370,639. Directive wireless signalling. MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CO., Ltd., Marconi House, Strand, London.- (Assignees of Carter, P. S. ; Port Jefferson, Long Island, New York, U.S.A.) March 27, 1931, No. 9433. Convention date, April 9, 1930. [Class 40 (v).] For end-on-directional transmission or reception, a series of half-wave transversals 10 are spaced a half wave-length apart along a feed or transmission line 8. The length of the transversals may be made less than half a wavelength provided they are tuned, as at 12, to the working wave-length so that their impedance is effectively a pure resistance load across the feeder. In these circumstances the current distribution will be as shown in Fig. 4, and the length of the transversals can be made such as to match the surge impedance of the transmission line, so that the usual impedancematching device 6 can be dispensed with. For unidirectional action, two lines 14, 16, Fig. 5, are staggered so that their respective transversals are effectively spaced a quarter wavelength apart, or two such pairs may be used in combination as shown in Fig. 7. In Fig. 6 the line 16, spaced co-linearly away from the line 14 by an odd number of quarter wavelengths, functions as a reflector. Specification 300,211, [Class 40 (v), Wireless signalling &c.], is referred to.

Abstract: 577,097. Recording-speedo meters. ETABLISSEMENTS E. JAEGER. May 30, 1940, No. 9475. Convention date, June 14, 1939. [Classes 106 (iii) and 106 (iv)] In a recording speedometer for vehicles comprising a totalising meter, instantaneous speed indicator and means for recording said speed by means of a stylus which can be removed from the casing, the dial comprises an observation aperture through which can be seen the stylus markings on a strip which is unwound from a roll disposed in a removable drawer, the recorded part of the strip being stored in a compartment of the drawer .so that it can be separated from the remainder of the strip after the drawer has been removed. As shown' in Fig. 10, the apparatus is provided with a speedindicating hand 27 and a totalizer 26, both actuated in usual manner. The dial of the apparatus is provided with an aperture 10 through which may be viewed a paper strip 43 carried in a removable drawer 8. On pushing in the drawer, a pinion 39 on the feed shaft: of of the paper strip meshes with a pinion geared to the speedometer drive, whereby the strip is advanced continuously from a removable roll 44. At the same time, a stylus 57, Fig. 4, actuated by gearing 68, 67, 66 from the spindle of the speed-indicating hand, moves across the strip to make a record of the speed as shown in Fig. 10. The loose end of the strip 43, after passing the opening 10 accumulates in a compartment 54, Fig. 6, of. the drawer. The paper roll 44 is removed or replaced by way of lateral grooves 59 after first raising a resilient presser wire 61. The dial bears a reference mark at a predetermined speed and if this speed is exceeded a cam 71 in the speed-hand drive closes electric contacts 75, 76 and illuminates a lamp 77 behind a red signalling plate 83. The drawer, after insertion, may be locked by a key 94. The mechanism is covered by a casing 14 which is detachably secured to the back-plate by internal spring- pressed locking levers operated by screws projecting through the back-plate.

Title: Method and apparatus for generating smoke for treating foods by smoking
Inventor: GOVENIUS KARL-JAN
IPC: A23B4/052
Filed: 1988-04-25
Abstract: The invention concerns a method and an arrangement for generating smoke for smoke treatment of foodstuffs. The smoke is developed by means of a technique in which combustion takes place from above, the smoke being used only when there is a charcoal layer of 0.5 to 100 mm on the fuel stack, which has arisen during combustion of the fuel. The charcoal layer acts as a regulator of the combustion air flow, the combustion being allowed to take place at a temperature which is advantageous as regards the development of odours and hazardous substances. The layer of charcoal also acts as a selective filter and removes hazardous substances from the smoke. <IMAGE>
