Title: Improvements relating to shutter release mechanisms for photographic cameras
IPC: G03B9/58
Filed: 1943-01-20
Abstract: 562,989. Photographic shutter mechanism. HOUGHTON-BUTCHER MANUFACTURING CO., Ltd., and HUNTER, D. G. Jan. 20, 1943, No. 1016. [Class 98 (i)] The shutter mechanism of a folding camera is operated by a slide guided in the camera and actuated by a member, such as a press button, which projects from the camera body when the camera is open, but is retracted automatically into said body when the camera is closed. As shown in Fig. 3 in plan with the front a open, the shutter trigger e is engaged by the upstanding end f of a member d held against the front a by a tongue h and integral with a sleeve g which is slidably and rotatably mounted on the hinge-pin b connecting front a and body c. A spring k encircling pin b presses on the end of sleeve g so as to urge the member d into inoperative position against an upturned edge u of the front a. Also slidable on pin b is a sleeve q held from rotating by the engagement of a depending tongue o, Fig. 4, on it with a recess n in a shutter-actuating press button m mounted to slide in the body parallel and adjacent to the pin b; the sleeve q is urged by a spring r, weaker than spring k, tending to retract the button m into the body c. The abutting ends of the sleeves g, q are cam-faced in such a way that on closing the front a, rotation of the sleeve g relative to the sleeve q permits sleeve q to slide inwards under the action of spring r, thereby retracting button m into the body c, whereas on opening the front a, the reverse rotation of sleeve g forces the button out again. On pressing the button m inwards, the member d is displaced across the front a against the action of spring k, causing its end f to trip the shutter trigger e. Specification 484,400 is referred to.

The remaining part of the incoming air is compressed by the blades 10 and supplied direct to the combustion chambers for cooling and combustion purposes. The turbine exhaust gases pass through the opening 4. The air entering through the shaft takes up heat from the rotating parts.

Abstract: 280,749. Siegel, R. Jan. 26, 1927. Casings; impeller blades.-The pump chamber tapers on the suction side from its connection with the suction pipe and flares on the pressure side to its connections with the delivery pipe, there being disposed in a substantially annular chamber, between the suction and pressure sides an impeller wheel having its blades or blade ends axially disposed thereto and adapted to exert a radial centrifugal action upon the medium therein. The pump casing consists of the parts q, r connected by an annular member s on which the suction pipe f and pressure pipe g are mounted. These pipes communicate with the inlet and outlet pipes d, e respectively and form parts of a helical path which is situated beside the axially-arranged blades of the impeller wheel b. The casing-walls approach closely the two sides of the impeller wheel at h, h' between the inlet and outlet passages in order to prevent the liquid pumped from flowing back from the outlet passage e to the inlet d. During the initial suction period the priming water is projected into the pressure pipe, but falls back into the outlet pipe, as shown in Fig. 4, and repeatedly entrains more air until liquid rises sufficiently in the suction pipe for pumping to commence. The discharge of air may be improved by making the outer wall of the passages e, d approach the impeller wheel at one or more points. The application of a laterally-closed impeller wheel with internal blading is described.

[Class 110(iii)] [Also in Group II] In a gas turbine plant a centrifugal separator for removing dust and the like from gases comprises an annular flow passage 4 of, radially convergent form, the passage having at its upstream end, means to impart whirl to the gases. Dust and other heavier material is discharged through an annular slot 3, or a number of peripheral slots in the wall 4. Stationary vanes 2 may be used to whirl the fluid, or the latter may enter the passage tangentially. Fig. 3 shows a gas-turbine plant comprising a two-stage axial-flow turbine rotor 5, on a shaft 6, which is supplied with working- fluid by combustion chambers 7 to which air flows through ducts 8. Combustion gases pass between guide blades 2. The whirl velocity of the gases reaching the turbines enables them to be fed directly to the blading without first passing through nozzle blading.
