Granted: 1909-11-18
Abstract: 15,399. Decker, W. H. July 1. [Addition to 15,269/09.] Moulding pulp hollow-ware.-Relates to improvements in the machine described in the parent Specification for making bilged barrel-bodies from pulp. A bilged auxiliary roll D, of the same size and shape as the forming - roll B, is provided between the roll B and carrying-off roll E. To hold the pulp web in bilged form, and to prevent wrinkling, graduated air blasts O, P are provided. The carrying-off roll E is driven frictionally from a drum F driven at the same speed as the rolls B, D. In operation, the web of pulp picked up by the roll B is lifted by hand on to the roll D, after passing around which it falls on to the roll E and is pressed on to the receiving-roll M. When a body of the desired thickness has been formed upon the roll M, the web is cut between the rolls D, E, and the drive-roll F stopped. The roll M is supported in open bearings n, and can be moved away from the roll E for the substitution of an empty roll by means of a lever h<1>.

Patent GB-191000678-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to the Manufacture of Chains.
Inventor: SCHAR FERDINAND
IPC: B21L3/00
Filed: 1910-01-10
Granted: 1910-08-18
Abstract: 678. Schar, F., and Schmid, M. von. Jan. 22, 1909, [Convention date]. Making wire and like chains; welding. - In a machine for making chains from links of the type in which there are two eyes at a rightangle, the link is placed on two pivoted jaws, a pair of vertical stamps move downwards to hold the link and to straighten out the previously - folded portion, and the jaws are then moved to bend the link. After the link is annealed, the part 1<a> is folded to facilitate insertion in a finished link by a cam-operated stamp 32, Fig. 11, which forces it against the sides of the perforation 31. The ends of the link, after removal from the annealing-furnace, are placed in grooved jaws 3, 4, Fig. 5, which are pivoted at 12 in a vertically-adjustable carriage and supported on horizontally-movable stamps 14. A cam-operated carriage having a stamp 6 descends to hold the part 1<b>, and a cam 10 on a stamp 11 also descends to press out the two levers 7 mounted on the carriage, and so open out the folded edges of the part 1<a>, which are then forced by the stamp 11 on to the jaw 4. The horizontal stamps 14, after the jaws have partially closed, then turn them about their pivots to form the eye 1, and to press the parts 1<a>, 1<b> together. The link, on release of the jaws, may be then gripped by tongs 15 mounted on a slide 17 vertically adjustable in an horizontally adjustable slide 18 to bring the link opposite welding-electrodes 20, which are moved inwards by cams and levers. When welding is completed, one of the levers moves a second lever so as to release a catch from a third lever, which is drawn back by a spring to break the circuit. On the return of the slide, the chain is raised by the tongs 15 to allow of the insertion of the next blank. Welding may be dispensed with. The Specification in the original form, as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a), states also that the closing of the rings may be effected by welding, and that electric welding may be along the whole surface of the rings, or the surfaces may have projections such as ribs, nipples, &c. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Control Systems for Electric Motors.
IPC: H02P1/20
Filed: 1910-04-15
Granted: 1911-04-18
Abstract: 9171. Adams Manufacturing Co., [Cutler Hammer Manufacturing Co.]. April 15. Systems for continuous-current motors only.-A motor is started by cutting-out step by step the series resistance 17 by moving the main arm 1 up to the fixed contact 7. The arm 1. then moves away from the resistance-controlling studs, and is held in position to connect the contacts 8, 9 by a no-volt magnet 12. Simultaneously, a predetermined amount of resistance is cut into the armature circuit, depending on the position of an arm 2 on a ring of contacts which are connected to the main resistance studs 6 of the switch. Under these conditions, the armature circuit is by way of the lead 26 and resistance 17, the arm 2, contact 8, and the arm 1 to the lead 21. The field circuit passes through the magnet 12 to the contact 9, and thence through the arm 1. Upon de-energization of the no-volt magnet, the arm 1 is pulled by a spring 10 to the " off " position, cutting resistance into and then breaking the armature circuit. The contact 7 is connected with the end of the resistance by a blow-out coil 18, to prevent an arc when the arm 1 is moved off it on to the contacts 8, 9.

Abstract: 14,350. Gaara, H, June 16. [Addition to 1935/11 (Void).] No Patent granted (Sealing fee not paid). Aerial machines without aerostats; propelling; steering and balancing. - Relates to means for automatically adjusting the rudders of aerial machines having a number of non - central propellers, in order to prevent the machine from turning laterally when the thrusts of the propellers are unbalanced about the longitudinal axis of the machine. The rudder is operated by the unbalanced torques of the motors, instead of by the propeller thrusts as described in the parent Specification. In the machine shown, having a pair of propellers b driven by rotary engines a, the crankshaft s d of the engines, instead of being fixed as usual, are mounted to rotate, and they are provided with bell-cranks e, f, the arms e being connected by a cord g. When the torques are unbalanced, the larger torque causes rotation of the bellcranks, and operates the rudder l by means of cords i connected to the arms f, so as to prevent turning of the machine. The movements of the bell-cranks may be controlled by springs and dash-pots. The rudder drum may be of non- circular shape, or may be mounted eccentrically, to ensure that the requisite balancing-couple is obtained. A front rudder m may be connected so as to be operated with the rudder l, but in the opposite sense, and the propeller axes may be inclined to the longitudinal axis of the machine, as described in the parent Specification. In order to reduce the frictional resistance offered to the turning of the shaft d, the rear end of the shaft, instead of being mounted directly in bearings, may be mounted on a bearing-pin o, Fig. 5<a>, of small diameter by means of lugs q. In other types of motors, such as engines with stationary cylinders, the part that constitutes the abutment for the power-producing or rotary part, is adapted to rock and is used for controlling the rudder. Planes, construction of.-In a modification (not shown), the main plane is formed in plan with the front edge at each side converging to a point at the centre, and with recesses at the rear edge to take the propellers.

Abstract: 26,631. Bullen, J. R. Nov. 28. Syringes. - An attachment for garden and other syringes consists of a length of tubing C having mounted at one end an elbow D fitted with an internal valve E and nozzle F. A cap G provided with a number of perforations H, through which the liquid is drawn on the.up-stroke of the syringe piston, is screwed into the elbow D, and a coiled spring I keeps the valve E normally against the screwed boss G<1> of the cup G. A hollow connexion, formed integrally with the valve E and nozzle F, forms a passage for the liquid between the two and enables the nozzle to be turned in any required direction. A spring plate K, Figs. 3 and 4, is coiled in the nozzle F and covers the nozzle end of the connexion J, and compresses sufficiently under the pressure of the liquid to allow the liquid to be diverted between it and the side of nozzle, thus creating a whirl, so that on emerging through the aperture L in the concave face N of the nozzle, the liquid is broken into a fine spray.
