Title: Improvements in Audible and Visual Indicators especially for use in Mines.
Inventor: ALLISON JOHN JOSEPH COLTMAN
IPC: B66B19/06
Filed: 1914-12-04
Granted: 1915-12-06
Abstract: 23,550. Allison, J. J. C., and Waller, J. Dec. 4. Mechanical telegraphs; bell signals. -In an audible and visible mine signalling - device, the first pull on the connecting - rope &c. serves to sound the gong and bring the indicating- pointer back to zero, and the first release of the rope moves the pointer forward one step. Subsequent pulls strike the gong, a n d the releases move the pointer forward, each a step. The rope &c. is attached to a member 6 which is yieldingly connectel by a spring 10 to a longitudinally movable member 5 supported by links 4 and returned, when the pull is released, by a spring 11. From the lever 5 depends a piece 12 having a transverse pin 13 which supports on one side of a plate 2 a rod 14, and on the other side of the plate a pawl 15, Fig. 2, which engages with a ratchet-wheel 38 whereby a pointer 37 is moved. The pointer 37 is mounted on a spindle 32 which is frictionally driven by the wheel 38 through the medium of a rubber or like block 41, collars 42, 43, and a compression spring 33. The rod 14 sounds the gong through an inclined surface 14<a> thereon engaging an inclined surface on an arm 19 of a hammer 17 when the member 5 is moved outwardly, and on the return of the member 5, the pointer is advanced one step by the pawl 15. During the first pull of the signal, the outward movement of the member 5 causes a bell-crank 21 to turn and actuate through inclined engaging surfaces a piece 30, whereby a collar 31 is moved to release the frictional connexion between the wheel 38 and the spindle 32, and so allow this spindle to turn under the influence of a weight 35 to bring the pointer back to zero. A dash pot prevents the immediate return of the bell-crank 21 and so allows additive movement of the pointer 37 for subsequent impulses of the same signal. A handle 29 provides means whereby the pit cage, on reaching a predetermined position, causes the pointer to return to zero.

Title: Improvements in Electrical Steering and like Gear.
IPC: G05D1/02
Filed: 1915-01-13
Granted: 1915-11-18
Abstract: 569. Harland & Wolff, and Bentley, H. H. Jan. 13. Systems for continuous-current motors only; systems controlling travel for a fixed distance or number of revolutions.-In an electric steering or like gear, the controlling-switch is operated from the hand-wheel through screw-and-nut gearing, and is returned to its neutral position by a second screw as the motor operates the rudder. The two nuts on the screws 2, 5, Fig. 1, are contained in the frame 4. The screw 2 can be rotated by the handwheel 1, and its rotation moves the screw 5 axially against the springs 15 to operate the arm 6 of the master switch 7 of the contactors 8, which control the steering-motor 9. The armature of this motor is provided with slip-rings 11 connected to the motor 12, which runs synchronously with the motor 9 and rotates the screw 5. This screw works back through its nut and returns the switch arm 6 to zero, thereby stopping the motor 9. A pointer 14 driven by the motor 12 indicates the position of the rudder. In a modification, the screw 2 is rotated by an auxiliary direct-current motor 19, Fig. 2, with differential field coils 18. Movement of the band-wheel moves the nut 16 to vary the parts of the resistance 17 in circuit with each of the field coils. The motor 19 operates the screw 2 and so moves the frame 4 until the contact 20 restores the balance in the field circuit, and the frame moves the screw 5 axially to operate the switch arm 6. The steering-motor then operates the rudder and also runs the screw 5 back until the master switch is in its off position. In a further modification, the nut on the screw 2 has teeth engaging a pinion 23, Fig. 3, turning with, but moving along, the rod 5. Rotation of the screw 2 moves the nut to operate the arm 6 and also moves the pinion 23. The steering-motor causes these parts to retrace their movements.

Title: A Method of and Means for Automatically Operating Bulkhead Doors, Sluice Gates and the like.
Inventor: SMITH DAVID JOSEPH
IPC: B63B19/00
Filed: 1915-02-17
Abstract: 2567. Smith, D. J., and Towl, C. Feb. 17. [Cognate Applications, 5432/15 and 11,327/15.] Controlling doors and gates pneumatically and by incoming leakage; operating doors and gates electrically, hydraulically, by springs, and by weights.-Bulkhead doors, sluice gates, &c., are controlled by gas, for example acetylene, automatically produced in a generator by the inflow of water thereto, for example by leakage. The gaseous pressure operates a piston or diaphragm, which operates the door &c. either directly through rods, links, &c., or indirectly through weights, springs, or hydraulic or electric means. As shown in Fig. 1, the gas is produced in a generator L and passes to a cylinder B, where it operates a piston-rod D', which first trips a detent I and then closes the door A. To assist the closing, the door may run on inclined guides A<1>. The movement of the piston may close an electric circuit, which allows the closing to be effected by electric or hydraulic means. In other forms, the piston frees a detent which either releases the pressure on the valve of a hydraulic operating system, or allows closing springs or weights to come into action. In the form shown in Fig. 3, in which the door A is closed by its own weight, the release of the detent I by the piston-rod D<1> allows the lever N<4> to fall, thus freeing the link N from the fixed block N<7>. A suitable detent to be released by the piston is shown in Fig. 6, and comprises a rod I which is freed when a recess D<3> in the piston-rod D<1> registers with the rod. Specification 17701/14, [Class 113 (i), Ship and boat fittings &c.], is referred to.
