Title: Improvements in Presser Rollers of Drawing and like Frames.
Inventor: FRASER JOHN
Filed: 1905-01-13
Granted: 1905-08-10
Abstract: 664. Fraser, J., Fraser, P., and Fraser, N. Jan. 13. Rollers for drawing and like frames are made up of two wooden disks A, B built up of thin layers glued with the grain lying in alternate directions to prevent warping. The periphery of the roller is recessed to hold a leather disk built up of two or more disks D, Fig. 1, preferably in segments, the grain surfaces abutting, or of strips F, Fig. 2, placed diagonally, the ends being scarfed to fit the recess. In the latter case, the grain surfaces are arranged so that hard and soft parts extend alternately across the ring. If the roller is broad, the strips may be in one or more pieces. The whole is held together by screws E or by bolts. Wooden pegs may be inserted to keep the leather in position.

Title: Improvements in Atmospheric Gas Burners for use in Cooking Ovens and for other purposes
Inventor: BROPHY MICHAEL MARY
Filed: 1905-02-06
Granted: 1905-10-05
Abstract: 2344. Brophy, M. M. Feb. 6. Atmospheric gas burners; burners, attaching and mounting.-An atmospheric gas burner, chiefly intended for cooking-ovens, consists of a hollow boss, to which the gas-supply pipe is fitted, provided with extended arms for supporting a removable box-shaped mixing-chamber. Figs. 1 and 3 show an elevation and crosssection respectively of the burner fitted to the wall of an oven. The tubular boss a is attached by bolts n to the wall, and projects through to form a connexion for the gas-supply pipe d. Two arms g support the mixing-chamber h, which is provided with an opening i, to allow it to pass over a projection on the boss carrying gas nozzles f, and to admit air. A partition k extends some distance in the chamber, and serves to direct the mixture of air and gas and to produce a more even flame from the nozzles l, which, as is also the top part of the chamber, are inclined in order to prevent accumulation of grease. The chamber h can. be lifted off for cleaning, and plugged holes m are provided at the ends of the chamber for the insertion of a brush. When a burner is placed on each side of a wall between two ovens, as in Fig. 5, two bolts may be passed through both bosses, and the gas pipes are inserted in apertures o on the neck of the fitting. The burner is shown as applied to an oven with a double wall, through which air for supporting combustion passes and becomes heated, as described in Specification No. 136, A.D. 1882, [Abridgment Class Stoves &c.].

Title: Improvements in Turbines
Inventor: JOHNSON WILLIAM BURGELAND
Filed: 1905-11-18
Granted: 1906-08-16
Abstract: 23,778. Johnson, W. B. Nov. 18. Elastic-fluid turbines.-A reversible turbine is constructed with the vanes and guide-blades fixed between pairs of concentric rings 2, 3 and 4, 5, Fig. 1, respectively. These rings are fitted loosely between the drum 7 and the casing 8 and are adapted to be locked to the drum and to the casing alternately, or to the casing and drum alternatively, for the purpose of reversing. The locking-devices consist of cams or wedges 12, 13, 14, 15, Figs. 1, 3, and 4, mounted on short slides 16 worked by cranks or eccentrics 18 operated by cranks 19 and rods 20. The rods 20 mside the drum are connected by arms 21 to a rod 22 passing through the shaft 9. Both sets of locking - devices are operated in conjunction by a lever. In a modification, in order to reduce the number of cranks, longer slides 16 are used, each slide carrying four wedges. In another modification, the slides are dispensed with and each wedge is operated by a separate cranked spindle. According to the Provisional Specification, the speed may be varied by locking several adjacent rings to one part, and the invention can be adapted to radial-flow turbines.

Title: Improved Dating Press with New Clamp Double Dating Type Carrier for Passengers Railway Tickets and other like purposes.
Inventor: EDMONDSON JOHN BEEBY
Filed: 1906-01-05
Granted: 1906-10-11
Abstract: 380. Edmondson, J. B., and Lewis, T. J. Jan. 5. Printing-surfaces.-Relates to a press for dating railway tickets and the like by means of which a return ticket may be dated at one impression. The press comprises a casing A to which are pivoted at F the upper and lower jaws K, D, the latter being themselves pivoted together at M. The inking- ribbon c is intermittently fed from the roll C to the roll G by means of ratchet gear g, E. The type is set in a box m made with a central division so as not to encroach on the perforated part of the ticket. The box m is held between the jaw K and a hooked plate t, secured by a screw a, which presses upon a plate p and thus clamps the type. The top of the box is closed by a pivoted plate s whose motion is limited by pins n'. The type faces are cut away so as to fit on a ledge b of the box whereby they are supported in alinement.
Patent GB-190600899-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Ink Distributing Devices for Printing Presses.
Inventor: MARX RICHARD
Filed: 1906-01-12
Granted: 1906-05-24
Abstract: 899. Marx, R. Jan. 12. Inking-apparatus.-Relates to apparatus for distributing ink upon the inking-plates of platen and other presses. An ink-distributing drum D, having a flat surface parallel to the inking-plate a of the press, is immovably held on a spindle C mounted on the machine frame. A fountain E, pivoted inside the drum on a pin e, may be moved so that its roller e<1> projects to a greater or less distance beyond the flat surface J. A rod f<4>, connected to the fountain at e<2>, has a strap f embracing an eccentric portion of a sleeve F on the shaft C, and, by varying the position of the sleeve F by means of an end portion f, the position of the fountain can be varied. The amount of ink delivered from the fountain is governed by the position of the roller e', which is mounted in eccentric bearings e<4> rotatable by arms e<5> and nuts e<7>. A frame G, G', carrying rollers h<1>, g<7>, is rotated by worm gearing b, b<2> from a shaft b<1> which is driven by chains from the frame of the press. The roller h<1> is carried by arms H pivoted to the frame G, G'. Stops h<4> limit the motion of the arms H under the influence of the springs h<2>. The bearings g<5> of the rollers g<7> are carried on plungers working in the members g of the frame, and are drawn upwards by springs g<8>. The fountain roller e<1> is partially rotated at each revolution of the frame G by means of a pin g<9> on the brace g<2> engaging a star-wheel e<9> on the fountain-roller shaft. The flat surface J contains a disk which is rotated by a pin g<10> engaging the teeth of a wheel j<1>. The rollers g<7>, which are always pressed towards the drum, take ink from the roller e' and distribute it upon the surface of the drum, while the roller h<1>, which never engages the flat surface of the drum by reason of the stops h<4>, conveys the ink from the drum to the inking-plate a which it traverses in a direction at right-angles to the line of motion of the main inking-rollers a3 of the press. The frame G, G<1> may be constructed with the arms g, g<1> at right-angles to one another. Fig. 7 shows the preferred construction of the invention, in which the roller h' will operate regardless of the direction of its motion with respect to the drum. The construction comprises hollow rods h<7>, nuts h<8> upon the rods, and springs g<13>. The roller h<1> is caused to press upon the cylindrical surface of the drum but not upon its flat surface. The quantity of ink fed from the fountain is here controlled by a rod e<12> part of the surface of which is flat. One edge of this surface bears against the roller e', and its proximity is regulated by an adjustable arm e<13>.
