Granted: 1913-07-31
Abstract: 25,069. Lake & Elliot, Lake, A. E., and Powell, A. D. Nov. 1. Variable-speed gearing suitable for motorcycle hubs comprises a driving-sleeve a<1> turning on a fixed axle a. A direct drive is produced by clutching to the sleeve a<1> a driven member c<2>, while two reduced speeds are effected through gearing by the alternative clutching to the same sleeve of sun gears b<3>, c. Three planet gears a<7>, which turn together on a spindle a<6>, mesh respectively with the gears b<3>, c, and with a gear upon the member c<2>. The spindle a<6> is carried by a dish a<5>, which is free to turn forwards, but is prevented from turning backwards by a ratchet c<4>. A double clutch c<1> sliding on the sleeve a' is adapted to engage the member c<2> or the gear c to produce the high and middle speeds respectively. When the clutch c' is moved to a middle position, a ratchet clutch b<4> on the sleeve a<1> automatically picks up the gear b<3> and brings the low speed into operation. A clutch c<3> may connect the member c<2> to a hub b. The arrangement may be modified by the omission of the middle gear train and used as a two-speed gear.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Valve Controlled Motor Devices.
Inventor: BREHMER HERMAN CHRISTIAN
IPC: B65H23/02
Filed: 1914-12-14
Granted: 1915-11-04
Abstract: 24,027. Brehmer, H. C. Dec. 14. Feeding webs. - Relates to valve - controlled motor devices more especially intended for use in tentering-machines to relieve the pressure of the stretching-rollers upon the cloth before the stretching limit of the fabric is reached. The valve comprises a hollow casing 26 with one or more ports 41 leading to the motor piston 21 in the cylinder 16, which controls the pressure between the rollers 3, 6. The valve member itself consists of a hollow radially-projecting member 39 carried in a hollow shaft 28, which has an axial conduit 35 for the passage of pressure fluid through the shaft and through the valve to the motor cylinder 16 by way of the port or ports 40, 41. When the valve is rocked through a small arc by the edge of the fabric contacting with the adjustably counterbalanced lever 44, the exhaust channel 42 is alined with the ports 41 and exhausts the cylinder to the atmosphere through the hollow casing 26 and its exhaust port 43, thus slackening the pressure between the rollers. Screw plugs 53, 51, in the casing and shaft respectively, can be removed to give access for adjustment of the valve member 39 A screw 50 secures the valve after adjustment. A screw 47 adjusts and limits the throw of the valve body for the open position, as shown.

IPC: H04Q5/16
Filed: 1915-03-04
Abstract: 3523. International Electric Co., Roose, H. E. R., and Le Noir, R. G. March 4. Party-line systems and apparatus.-In a stepby-step system, the receiving-instruments at all stations, except the calling and called stations, are automatically maintained inoperative. As applied to the system described in Specification 28,186/12, the spindle 2 of the ratchet-wheel is provided with a locking-disk 1 having camprojections 6, 7 co-operating with a spring lever 3 and a notched lever 4 to lock the receiver arms at the uncalled stations. The projection 6 is fixed at the same relative position on the disk at each station, but the projection 7 is fixed with regard to the situation of the conducting-segment f at that station. Thus, the ratchet at the called station having been operated to place its segment f to bridge the contacts g, it is only at this station that the projection 7 trips the lever 3 into the notch in the lever 4. The connecting-rod 5 thus allows the lever m to close the speaking circuits when the receiver is lifted. Instead of using a connecting-rod, the lever 4 and hook lever m may be combined in a single member. A separate and additional disk may also be provided at each station to carry the projection 7 and arranged sufficiently close to the disk 1 for both to be engaged by the lever 3.

Abstract: 8954. Aktiebolaget Lux. June 22, 1914, [Convention date]. Sprinklers, automatic; water supply.-Relates to automatic sprinkler systems of the type in which the water is expelled by means of compressed or liquefied gas. Carbon dioxide at a comparatively low presure is normally supplied to the pipes 3 from the gas receptacle 2 through a reducing-valve 5, a non-return valve 6 preventing this pressure from acting on the water in a tank 1. When a sprinkler head 4 opens, the consequent reduction of pressure in the pipes causes the opening of a spring-actuated valve 7, in the manner described in Specification 3093/14, and compressed gas passes through a pipe 8 to the tank 1. The gas is heated by means of a steam conduit &c., or by being passed through a coil 9 in the water. In a modification, the gas-release valve is operated electrically on the closing of a circuit at the sprinkler head.
