Title: Improvements in Nailing or Slugging Machines for Boots and Shoes.
Inventor: CUTTER SOLOMON MARCELLA
Filed: 1897-05-11
Granted: 1897-07-03
Abstract: 11,705. Cutter, S. M. May 11. Nailing.-The machine is actuated by means of a hand-wheel 6 attached to a loose pulley 5 which can be locked to the driving-shaft by means of a clutch controlled by the starting-lever 42. The awl 81 is driven into the stock by means of the cam-groove 75 and the lever 72 ; the stock support 10 is then slightly withdrawn from the stock by the action of the cam-groove 28 on the block 26. The stock is then fed by the action of the cam surface 87 on the lever 84, which communicates motion to the awl, and causes the block 65 containing a portion of the nail tube to move out of line with the driver and causes the end of the knife 121 attached to the movable block to be withdrawn from the nail strip 97, and also places the hole in the stock made by the awl in a line with the driver. The spring 23 now causes the stock support to return to its normal position by the cam-groove 28 acting on the block 26 and the unclamping of the rod 22 from the block 26 by the stop 34 acting on the levers 30. The awl is then withdrawn from the stock by the action of the cam-groove 75 on the lever 72, and at the same time the nail strip is fed to the nail tube by the action of the cam surface 112 on the lever 106. The awl is then returned to its normal position by the action of the spring 71 on the lever 84 ; at the same time the block 65 is moved so as to bring its throat under the driver, and its attached knife 121 is introduced between the first and second nail on the nail strip by the action of the cam surface 70 on the lever 67. The driver 94, which is actuated by a connecting-rod 91, now comes in contact with the nail, causes it to be cut off, and drives it into the stock. The stock support can be lowered at any time by means of the foot-lever 19. In stopping the machine, the lever 42 is released and the rod 43 depressed by the action of the spring 47, when the lever 57 moves towards the rod 22, which is then looked in position by the catch 61 engaging with the rack 62, thereby preventing the spring 23 from pressing the stock support upwards ; at the same time the toggle-joint 16, 17 is bent by the movement of the lever 57 and the stock support is lowered slightly. The action of various parts of the machine can be adjusted according to the thickness of the work ; there is also a gauge at the front of the machine to determine the distance from the edge of the stock at which the nails are driven in.

Granted: 1898-10-22
Abstract: 26,801. Grist, C. J. Nov. 16. Balls.-Balls for golf and the like are formed by the following process:-Cleansed and dried hemp or other fibre is immersed in linseed or other drying-oil, which has been partially oxidized and dried by heating to 400‹ F. and by adding litharge. The fibres with the oil adhering are then separated from superfluous oil by means of a hydro-extractor, and the oil is afterwards completely oxidized by loosely spreading the fibres on wire gauze and passing a current of heated air through them. The processes of dipping &c. are repeated twice, after which the fibres are masticated between grinding-rolls of different diameters running at a high speed. The homogeneous mass obtained is ground between crushing-rolls twice, first with an addition of 5 to 10 per cent. of sulphur, and second with 5 to 50 per cent. of guttapercha or other suitable substance. The mass is finally moulded to form the balls, painted, and allowed to dry.

Granted: 1899-08-12
Abstract: 24,018. Waterhouse, M., Mitchell, J. B., and Robinson, L. E. Nov. 15. Fog and audible signals; indicators and repeaters, signal. -Detonating cartridges are inserted in chambers in the disc a, which is rotated by pawl and ratchet mechanism d, c to bring the cartridges successively in front of the firing-hammer l. The pawl lever d is operated by means of a diagonal slot in the slide h, this slide also effecting the cocking of the hammer l through the weighted lever s, chains q, and cam drums n on the hammer spindle. The slide h is set to operative position by the transverse slide 11, Fig. 9, which is actuated by a lever in the cabin, the incline 16 engaging the pin 3 on the slide h and forcing back the latter, which then becomes locked by the pin 3 engaging the edge of the slide w connected to a trainoperated treadle - lever on the rocking-shaft y. When the train passes over the treadle, the notch 5 in the slide w is brought opposite to the pin 3, so freeing the slide h, on which the hammer l is actuated by the lever s to explode the cartridge, the lever s at the same time returning the slide h to its original position. When the signal is put to ' safety,' the pin 3 is engaged and held by the jaw 21 of the slide 9, Fig. 7, so that the apparatus is rendered inoperative. In the arrangement shown, two slides 14, 15, connected to the 'home' and 'distant' signals, are provided with pins 12, 13, which project through slots in the slide 9 and engage the pivoted segment 20. The segment permits one of the signals to be lowered without moving the slide, but is locked by the corresponding pin 12 or 13, so that the lowering of the second signal effects the movement of the slide. Bell or gong signals may be employed instead of the detonators, in which case the ratchet feed-mechanism is omitted. The hammer l may also be actuated by a spring, instead of by the weighted lever s.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Stapling devices for Box-blank and other Machines.
Inventor: BOULT ALFRED JULIUS
Filed: 1899-04-20
Granted: 1899-06-10
Abstract: 8292. Boult, A. J., [Rosback, F. P.]. April 20. Stapling.-Relates to stapling-mechanism, more particularly for stapling box blanks and for replacing the stapling-mechanism described in Specification No. 18,736, A.D. 1898, which relates to a box-blank making machine. The blanks may be afterwards step-mitred in a machine such as that described in Specification No. 2451, A.D. 1899, [Abridgment Class Boxes &c.], and then bent to form the box. Fig. 5 shows a plan of one of the stapling-devices, Fig. 8 an elevation of it, Fig. 9 a section of Fig. 8, and Fig. 11 a similar section taken a little further to the left. The wire Y passes beneath the straightener f<3> and holding-pawl l<1> to the feeding-pawl K<2> on the slide K. The slide is moved to and fro on the bar s by the connecting-rod M pivoted to the bar L, which is moved to and fro longitudinally by a bellcrank lever, connecting-rod, and eccentric. The feed is varied by altering the effective arm of the bell-crank lever. The wire then passes through the slide H, and then between the jaws m<2>, m<3> of the sliding spring anvil G. The slide H moves close up to the anvil to form a guide for the wire, and then moves back out of the way of the section of wire to be bent. The cutter preferably consists of a movable part H', Figs. 8 and 11, of the slide H, but a separate cutter may be used. The bending of the staple is effected by the bar E, which has a longitudinal T-shaped slot across which the wire passes. The anvil G is pushed aside, and the staple driven into the work Z by the driver bar F, which slides in the slot in the bar E. The slide H is actuated by a link H<4> and bell-crank lever H<3> with a second arm H<5>. A bent rod K<5> acts on the arm H<3>, and a set-screw K<6>, Fig. 5, acts on the arm H<5>. Both the rod K<5> and set-screw K<6> are carried by the vertical post K<3> of the feed-slide K. By adjusting the set-screw the position of the cutter can be varied so that both arms of the staple have the same length. The stapling-mechanism is supported by a cross-bar D'. Above this crossbar and parallel to it are two crossheads worked by eccentrics. One of these actuates the stapleforming bar E, while the other actuates the driver bar F and the bar H<6> working the cutter. The box blanks with the cleats beneath them and wires above them as described in Specification No. 18,736, A.D. 1898, are fed by chains running over chainwheels. The chains carry pushers, and the blanks are held down by stationary adjustable bars. After the staple has been driven and clinched, the work is fed between rollers which press the staples flat into the work.

Granted: 1900-08-04
Abstract: 17,027. Gaillet, H. P. A. Aug. 22 Water, purifying and hardening; decanting and settling.- Part of an apparatus for this purpose is shown diagrammatically. In order to prevent the access of air which may contain microbes &c to the water while under treatment, the communication with the atmosphere of the distributing-tank C, saturator F, and settling-tank G, necessary to allow the free flow of water through them, is made through air filters N placed at the top of tubes bent at their lower ends to form liquid seals. For the same purpose, the inspection openings 0 and bearings for agitating-shafts &c. are fitted with liquid seals, preferably containing lime water. The water, after driving the wheel B, passes to the distributing-tank C through a preliminary purifier similar to the tank E, which can be rotated for cleansing and has a bye-pass e. From the tank C part of the water flows through the tank E to the saturator F, to be mixed with lime or other reagent, and the rest to the mixing and settling tank G. Thence it may flow to the final filter, but if it contains too little lime it' is passed to a vessel H, where it is mixed with carbonic-acid gas and lime water, and thence to a second settling-tank and the final filter. The carbonic-acid gas is produced in a vessel J from the calcareous sediment in the settling-chambers. It is washed in the vessel K, and then passes to the carbonating-vessel H referred to above, which consists of a drum revolving partly in water and partly in gas, and having a number of longitudinal partitions and the same number of serrated openings parallel with the axis. Thus, as the drum rotates, the gas is carried down into the water and escapes through the serrated openings.
