Title: Improvements in the Production of Pictures and Patterns in Woven Fabrics.
Inventor: PICCIONI GINO
IPC: D03C19/00
Filed: 1913-12-30
Granted: 1914-07-23
Abstract: 29,985. Piccioni, G. DÚc. 30. Pile fabrics.-Any desired number of copies of pictures or patterns are produced simultaneously in the form of pile fabrics by a process comprising, firstly, the dissection of the picture &c. into units of colour and size, secondly, matching each unit with a thread or filament of corresponding colour, thirdly, drawing all the threads in order corresponding to the picture through the desired number of layers of fabric, and, finally, cutting the threads between the layers. The picture or pattern to be reproduced is painted or transferred upon the edges of a block of cardboard sheets a, Fig. 2, or the like held together in a frame b so that their upper edges form a flat surface. The sheets a are preferably numbered and are separated. A unit of length having been fixed, the edge of each sheet is measured and the colour values and number of units of each colour spot are entered upon a strip, which can be rolled up and is used to guide the operator in the reproduction at any time. Threads corresponding in number and colour to the indications on the strip are selected and arranged in a row in front of an apparatus in which the layers of fabric f, Fig. 3, are stretched between bars c, d. Upon a bed-plate g are supported a row of needles comprising a hollow part h, Fig. 4, and a hooked part i slidable within the hollow part. The needles are passed through the layers of fabric, being guided by eyelets m in fixed bars k, which separate the layers, the parts i are protruded to seize the threads and retracted to hold them, and the needles are drawn back, carrying the threads through the layers of fabric. Rows of threads are thus inserted in succession, the layers of fabric being raised or lowered through a distance equal to the thickness of the sheets a after each operation. Finally, the threads are cut between the layers by knives n. The back of each fabric may be covered with a suitable cement to assist in holding the threads.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Wheel Guards and Obstruction Removers for Motor Driven Road Vehicles.
Inventor: DAWS GEORGE
IPC: B60R19/54
Filed: 1914-01-30
Granted: 1914-10-15
Abstract: 2522. Daws, G., and Silk, E. Jan. 30. Wheel-guards.-In front of each steering- wheel of a motor road vehicle is disposed a guard I which is mounted by a vertical pivot 5 on the chassis and is connected to the wheel so as to partake of the steering movements, and within the guard is disposed a shield which, when an obstruction is encountered, is automatically released to move downwardly under the action of springs or of its own weight. The pivot 5 is in vertical line with the joint of the axle-end, and the guard is caused to turn laterally with the wheel by the provision of rollers 25 bearing against the sides of the wheel. In one form, Figs. 1 and 2. the shield, comprising a curved plate 8 having a lower tubular edging 11 of rubber or the like. is held in raised position by a bolt 13<a> carried by a lever 13 pivoted to lugs 14 on the guard 1. a catch 15 at the lower end of the lever being engaged by the rear end of a lever 16 also pivoted to lugs on the guard 1. When the curved outer end of the lever 16, or an horizontal rod 26 projecting therefrom, is raised by contact with an obstruction, the lever 13 is released and is operated by a spring 17 to withdraw the bolt 13<a>, whereupon the shield 8 falls under the action of springs 10. The shield is reset by means of a cord 18 passing through a hole in the guard 1. In a modification, Fig. 4, the shield 21 is hinged at 20 to a plate 19 adapted to slide in guides in the guard 1, and is held in raised position by a spring 22 engaging beneath the lower edge of the shield. The spring 22 is retained in this position by a cam 23 on the end of the lever 16, until the outer end of the lever is raised by an obstruction, whereupon the shield is released and falls.

Abstract: 19,334. Thomas, J. Sept. 2. Refuse-destroying stoves; closed solid-fuel stoves; air supply, regulating.-A destructor furnace or stove of the kind described in Specification 24,923/13 is provided with a vertically sliding door controlling the admission of air and access to the ashpit and to the grate operated by the action of opening and closing the charging-door at the top of the furnace, the two doors being so interconnected that the door controlling the air admission and access to the ash-pit and grate may be opened beyond its normal extent independently of the charging-door when it is desired to rake out the fire-chamber. As shown in Fig. 2, the charging-door 22 is mounted on horizontal hinge pins 23 and is provided with projections 24 which, when the door is closed, bear against the upper arms 25 of bellcranks mounted on a spindle 26. The lower arm 28 of the bell-crank is connected to a rod 30 engaging in a telescopic manner with the vertically sliding door 31 controlling admission of air and access to the ash-pit 7 and grate 6. Normally the door 31 is held open a short distance by a lug 33 on the rod 30 engaging a bridge piece 34 on the door to allow sufficient air for combustion to pass to the fire-bars. The bell-crank arms 25, 28 may be adjusted in position on the spindle 26 to vary the extent of opening of the door 31 or the rod 30 or other parts may be made adjustable in length for the same purpose. When the charging- door is opened, the door 31 falls by gravity to its closed position. The telescopic or sliding connexion between the rod 30 and door 31 permits the door to be raised above its normal position to obtain access to the grate. Fig. 3 shows a modification in which an horizontally sliding charging- door 36 is adapted to engage one arm 43 of a bell-crank lever, the other arm 41 being pivoted to the rod 30 connected to the door 31 as previously described. As the door 36 is moved to the right, the air-supply door is lowered and vice versa. The furnace or stove shown in Fig. 2 has an outer-air cooling jacket 13 communicating with the atmosphere at top and bottom. Gas-rings 11, 12 for supplying gas to the refuse and combustion products, and a baffle 16 to deflect the hot air rising from the space between the casing 5 and tubular cage 10 are also provided as described in Specification 24,923/13.

Fold-engaging and like files.-Envelopes E for containing gramophone records or other flat objects, and having apertures g in one edge to receive the cord adapted to bind them together in book form, are provided with wires W sliding in the folds of the envelopes and retained in position by guides formed from the envelopes themselves, or by a part attached thereto ; the wires serve to retain the cord in the holes, and any envelope can be withdrawn by first withdrawing the corresponding wire. In the arrangement shown in Figs. 2 and 4, the wire is bent so that only a partial withdrawal is necessary to uncover the holes g ; guides e,f are formed by cutting nicks in the edge of the envelope and a projection d on the wire by engaging the guide f limits the withdrawal. In the form shown in Fig. 5, a long straight wire is used, and a guide is formed by securing a piece of cardboard C to the envelope with its straight edge a slight distance from the fold ; to prevent complete withdrawal, a projection on the wire may engage a stop on the guide; in place of the long straight wire, two short wires may be used. The wire shown in Fig. 9 must be operated from the inside of the envelope, and, as the wire is provided with a central bend h co-operating with the guides e, f, only one hole can be uncovered at a time.
