Title: Improvements in Submergible Tubes or Dry Wells for Submarine Work.
Inventor: WALLER PER ARON
Filed: 1897-03-01
Granted: 1897-05-08
Abstract: 5440. Waller, P. A. March 1. Caissons.-A cylindrical working chamber 1 is arranged to slide on a tube 2 extending above the water line, and is ballasted by weights hung below or around it. Water is admitted to an annular compartment 3 between the tubes 1 and 2 by valves 5, 6, and is expelled by compressed air supplied by a pipe 4. A clamping-tool, for holding the tube against the hull of a vessel or other object while it is drilled or operated on, is formed of telescopic rods 8, 9 mounted in a tubular ball- and - socket j o i n t 7. The drilling or other tools are also arranged to slide or turn in tubular ball- and - socket joists. In order to facilitate the exchange of tools while the tube is submerged, the space outside each ball-joint is encased by walls 10 and a sliding cover operated by a rack and pinion. Water is admitted to the enclosed space, to equalize the pressure on both sides of the slide, by a pipe 15 fitted with a three-way cock 16, and can be drawn off by the cock when the slide is closed. Weights 17, connected by cords 18 to the tool or clamp spindle, counteract the pressure of water tending to force the spindle inwards.

Title: Improvements in and Connected with Superficially Coloured Paper, Carboard, and Similar Materials.
Inventor: VOIGT CARL HERMANN
Filed: 1897-05-18
Granted: 1897-07-31
Abstract: 12,304. Voigt, C. H. May 18. Paper, coating and colouring.-Instead of using glue as a binding-material when coating or colouring paper, cardboard, and like material, a mixture is used consisting of 100 parts of starch or other carbohydrate, or vegetable matter, such as agaragar or carragheen, 2 parts of solid alkali, and 300 to 500 parts of water. The whole is heated to 110‹ to 200‹ C. under pressure. The colouring-matter is subsequently added according to requirements and, if necessary, a suitable quantity of wax or soap. The colour paste thus obtained may be applied to the sheets of unsized paper or cardboard without any preliminary sizing, and when the coloured paper is required to serve as a base for multicoloured prints, from 4 to 6 coloured impressions may be applied to the same sheet in one day.

Inventor: KOCHS WILLIAM EDWARD
Filed: 1897-12-03
Granted: 1898-04-16
Abstract: 28,503. Kochs, W. E. Dec. 3. Loading and unloading.-Upon a fixed staith C is mounted a travelling frame B fitted with a crane arm and having a band conveyer A, of the type described in Specification No. 18,459, A.D. 1896, pivoted at D. The frame B travels on rails at right-angles to the dock side, and the free end of the conveyer is adjusted vertically by a hydraulic ram M. The coal wagons are run into either end or side tippers and discharged on to the conveyer. The latter delivers the coal by a shoot F to a telescopic tube G with a valve arrangement at the bottom to regulate the discharge and thus prevent breakage. The small coal may be screened off by F. The apparatus may be mounted on a travelling staith. For unloading a ship, the coal is lifted in buckets by the crane arm and discharged on to the conveyer, which then discharges into the wagons.

Title: Improvements in Water-tube Boilers.
Inventor: MAY THOMAS WILLIAM
Filed: 1898-01-12
Granted: 1898-12-10
Abstract: 919. May, T. W., and Davis, H. T. Jan. 12. Water-tube boilers.- In order to promote circulation and separate water from the steam, a trough c and baffle-plates d, e are provided in the steam and water drum. When tubes of the Field type are used, the inner circulation tubes open into the space above the trough as shown in Fig. 1. When downcomers are employed, as shown at f in Fig. 3, the rising water is deflected by the trough and plates to the ends of the drum, whence the downcomers take it to the water drums. The lower edges of the plates d and e are preferably serrated. In the case of a boiler with conicallydisposed water-tubes connecting a vertical steam drum with an annular water chamber as shown in Fig. 7, the trough and plates are replaced by conical deflectors d and e. When Field tubes are similarly arranged, the conical deflectors are inverted.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Brake Apparatus for Road and other Vehicles.
Inventor: REMONDY LEON
Filed: 1898-06-11
Granted: 1899-06-02
Abstract: 13,142. Remondy, L., and Hallot, P. June 11. Brakes.-The cable 1, Fig. 1, fastened to the vehicle at 2 and to the lever 41 of the draw-bar 4 at 3, is wound round pulleys 5, 6, the former of which is connected to the lever 10 and the latter to the brake shoe S. The spring 8 is normally balanced by the pull on the chain 4<a>, but, should the speed of the vehicle exceed that of the horse, the chain slacks and permits the spring to apply the band and rim brakes. The tension on the cable may be regulated by the lever 10. The brake described may be applied to existing brake fittings by providing " play " between the brake operating- bar and brake arm, either by a chain or a pin and slot. In a modification, the part 8 is formed as a leaf spring placad under a pivoted foot-lever, and the automatic brake mechanism is arranged independently of the brake device proper. The brakes may also be applied by a weighted lever.

Inventor: GIBSON GEORGE
Filed: 1898-12-13
Granted: 1899-12-13
Abstract: 26,398. Gibson, G., and Montgomery, J. Dec. 13. Wheels readily detachable; axles.-Relates to means by which the driving-wheels of velocipedes &c. may be removed without disconnecting the chain &c. The wheel hub A<1> is mounted in ball bearings on a hollow axle A<7> as shown, the chainwheel D being secured to a sleeve B mounted in similar bearings on an axle B<6>, the screwed extension of which is secured to the fork E by a nut and washer B<11> as usual. The axle A<7> is supported by a bolt C which is passed through the fork end and axle A', and is screwed into the axle B<6> so as to clamp the axles B<6>, A<7> together.

Title: Improvements in Cold Water Storage Tanks.
Inventor: WALLER JAMES FRANKLIN
Filed: 1899-01-18
Granted: 1899-11-25
Abstract: 1205. Waller, J. F. Jan. 18. Water supply.-Relates to a sealed tank for cold-water storage. The bottom G slopes to the outlet B. The ball valve C may be attached to a manhole cover D. An air trap E, shown in section on a larger scale in Fig. 2, maintains a water seal between the tank and the atmosphere, and also acts as an overflow. When the water is falling in the tank, air enters by the pipe H, and passes the trap E. As the water rises again, the seal is re-made, and, when the air in the tank attains sufficient pressure, it passes out again through the trap. A small hole F, in the inner wall of the trap and on a level with the normal water level, allows the trao to be replenished with water. If the valve leaks and the water rises, the excess can overflow through the trap, which thus prevents the pressure in the tank from approaching that in the main. An additional air passage J may be used when required.

The ends are provided at the top with flaps D, which have also creases corresponding with the creases c, but adapted to fold outwards. When the flaps D are raised, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 4, or turned down on the lid, as shown in full lines, the ends are prevented from folding. The bottom creases f, f<2>, fold inwards, and the crease f<1> outwards. The crease between the bottom and ends is angular as shown in Fig. 2. A handle H may be used with or without the flaps D.

Abstract: 13,995. Veritys (Limited) and Ridings, W. R. July 6. Arc lamps.-Brake regulating - mechanism is constructed as shown. The heavy upper carbon-holder a<2> and the lower holder a<4> are connected by a cord passed over a small pulley c, and round another pulley e<2> attached to the brake-wheel e. The small pulley c is carried by one end of a lever c<2>, the other end of which has a screw f to bear against the top o of the lamp frame. The brake is a cord d, attached to the pulley lever c<2> near the screw, passed round the brake-wheel e, and attached on the series side to a regulating-lever g, which carries cores over series and shunt solenoids h, i. As the carbons burn, the series core rises, allowing the brake-wheel to turn under the action of the weight of the upper holder, until the screw f touches the top of the lamp frame ; further movement of the series core slackens the brake cord so that the brake-wheel slips.
