Filed: 1912-04-19
Granted: 1913-04-17
Abstract: 9313. Moelants, L. April 19. Three-colour systems; kinematograph apparatus.-In three-colour apparatus, a spectroscope system is used to give, with the aid of auxiliary lenses, coloured images of an external object 2 in the plane B' B'. In the plane A<1> A<1> where the spectrum is focused a diaphragm 8 is placed, apertured as shown in Fig. 3 to allow bands of red, green, and violet light through in amounts that will allow of equal exposures for the three images projected into the plane B' B' by the lenses 11', 11 and 11<11>. By placing positives in the plane B', B', a natural-colour effect is produced on looking through the system from the objective end. Kinematograph pictures can be produced and projected by the apparatus.

Granted: 1913-08-07
Abstract: 23,849. Masson, R. L. March 26, [Convention date]. Moving and changing apparatus.-A uniform string of liquid and gaseous beads is formed by forcing one of the fluids into the midst of the other at a curved part of a tube. A tap 13, Fig. 7, of a liquid-container d is closed and the air-tap 12 is opened until the liquid is cleared from the tube a; the tap 13 is then opened and regulated relatively to the tap 12 to obtain the desired length of air bubbles. Here the air forces the stream of bubbles forwards. The tube b may branch off the tube 9 at a certain distance from and plumb with the summit of the bend of 'the tube b. In the apparatus shown in Fig. 9, the liquid in a constant-level reservoir e forces the stream forwards, a valve 16 admitting the air. which breaks into bubbles at the junction of the tubes 7, b. The liquidsupply tube 7 may join the air-supply tube b above a loop 4 of various shapes or an S or like shaped tube. Bubbles will be formed at the junction of the tubes 7, b of a length that varies with the pressures of the fluids and the shape of the curved piece 4.

Abstract: 7804. Hay, W. G. April 3. Starting and stopping, automatic.-In vacuum cleaning - apparatus of the steam-ejector type, the weight or action of the collected dust is caused to control the s t e a m supply valve. Dust-laden air entering by a pipe 2 is discharged by a conduit 5 into a vessel 1 so as to deposit the dust in a movable chamber 16. The dustfree air is withdrawn from an annular chamber 7, communicating with the vessel 1 by an aperture 10, by the ejector 12. Dust accumulating in the chamber 16 G first seals its open conical end 17 and then by the weight of the dust causes the chamber to move down together with the rod 18, which is connected to a weighted lever 40 fulcrumed at 41. The spindle 44 consequently drops and c l o s e s the valve 45. When the dust has been discharged, the weighted lever 40 lifts the spindle 44 and steam is again supplied to the ejector.
