Filed: 1976-05-25
Abstract: 1504447 Labelling SANT' ANDREA NOVARA OFFICINE MECCANICHE E FONDERIE SpA 25 May 1976 [3 Oct 1975] 21717/76 Heading B8F [Also in Division D1] Apparatus for incorporating a marker in a roll or reel of textile material wound on to a rotary support comprises a member for applying the marker to the surface of the roll, reel, or support, means for positioning the marker on the member, and an arrangement for co-ordinating the movements of the member and the means. In the Figure, bobbin 6 is rotated by drive roll 5. Sliver coming from guide 7 is wound on to the bobbin, which is traversed, e.g. by roll 5. An applicator 10 on the end of arm 8 is pivotable about drive-shaft 9 to apply the end 11 of the sliver to the bobbin. The applicator also supports a container 15 in which markers 12 in sheet form are retained by lips (not shown) around an upper opening. A suction head 23 is pivotable on hollow arm 22 about spindle 21, and arm 22 is connected through rotary valve assembly 21 to hollow arm 26 leading to a suction source 25. Link 29 connects lever 28 on drive-shaft 9 to an eccentric position on valve body 27 by a somewhat elongated slot 30 affording a little lost motion. The geometry is such that on rotation of spindle 9, suction head 23 lifts off applicator 10, carrying the top marker, valve 27 then cuts off the suction so that the marker drops on to applicator 10, and thereafter head 23 swings clear of the path of the applicator as it raises the marker to the bobbin. Spring bias on arm 23 and the lost motion slot 30 accommodate variation in the marker stack height.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the automatic regulation of the parallel working variable speed dynamos and accumulators
Inventor: MAURON FRANCOIS
IPC: H02J7/18
Filed: 1919-09-10
Abstract: 132,519. Mauron, F. Sept. 10, 1918, [Convention date]. Lighting systems; regulation, automatic systems and apparatus for; systems of charging galvanic batteries. - In an electric supply system using a variable-speed dynamo D and a battery B, the generator voltage is controlled by a fieldregulator I having a shunt coil M and a series circuit the resistance R by overlapping some or all of the contacts by means of the flexible metal band P. The coil M is in series with a coil s and a resistance W<1>. Assuming the load switch J is open and the battery is on charge, the current passes to the battery through the regulator coil N and a coil v, which opposes the action of the coil s. At the end of the charge, when the voltage is high and the current low, the switch lever H is attracted by the coil s, and the parts 1, 2 of the resistance W<1> are short-circuited at the contacts e ; the coil M is then energized sufficiently to insert resistance into the field circuit and stop charging. When the load is switched on, a coil T in shunt to the load circuit controls the lighting-current by means of the resistance R'. A coil t, also across the load circuit, acts on the switch lever H' to place a resistance K in parallel with the regulator coil N, and to close the contacts f, so as to short-circuit the part 2 of the resistance W<1>. The exclusion of this part of the resistance from the circuit of the coil M enables the generator to supply the load, and, if necessary, charge the 'battery at a slow rate. To ensure that the contacts e are open when the load is on, the switch lever carries a projection m which moves the lever H to the open position and opens the short circuit around the two resistance parts 1, 2.

Title: Improvements in air cleaners
IPC: A01M23/30
Filed: 1937-08-13
Abstract: 482,249. Filtering air. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. Aug. 13, 1937, No. 22298. Convention date, Sept. 5, 1936. [Class 8 (ii)] In apparatus for cleaning carburetter air for internal-combustion engines, wherein the air picks up liquid from a reservoir before passing through the filter, the oil bath is divided into two compartments which are in communication below the oil level only. One compartment in it is not subject to the velocity pressure of the air, and the level in the other compartment falls in consequence of it. The cleaner 11 communicates through a central tube 39 of a resonator silencer 10 with a carburetter. At the bottom is arranged the oil and other liquid bath comprising two annular compartments 34, 35 above which is mounted an annular filter element 13. The compartment 35 has a shelf 18 connected with the bottom bv a vertical wall. The cleaner 11 has orifices 23 23 separated by narrow bars 24, 25. A perforated inclined skirt is preferably arranged outside the chamber 34 which is perforated at the bottom and communicates with an annular recess connected by vents 36 with the filter. The vents may have tubes leading to the cover 14. The air is drawn in through the passage 27 and passes upward through the filter by orifices 22, 23. The air strikes and picks up liquid from the shelf 18. The surface of the liquid in chamber 34 is subjected to static pressure ; that in chamber 35 is also subject to the velocity pressure of the air. The skirt 31 serves primarily as a baffle to inhibit weltering of the liquid in the chamber 35. The velocity pressure of the oil prevents the passage of liquid from its inner to its outer face.

Abstract: 1,019,170. Continuous heat treatment furnace. A. ZERVER, and H. ZERVER. June 5, 1963 [June 9, 1962], No. 22302/62. Heading F4B. In a heating furnace more particularly for small forgings in swaging shops, the furnace hearth is inclined and constitutes the beginning of a discharge shoot for the heated forgings, the shoot being inclined at the same angle as the hearth. In the form shown, the furnace 1 is inclined upwards towards its rear end and is also canted sideways. Forgings 2 are loaded into a magazine 4 from which they are fed by a piston and slide into the furnace 1, pushing each other along in an upward direction to the end of a straight-edged guide bar 7. The sideways cant of the furnace then causes them to slide sideways and discharge into a shoot leading to a drop-hammer, said shoot being adjacent the heating zone of the furnace. The shoot and hearth are inclined and canted at the same angles to prevent the forgings tipping over. The slope in either direction can be adjusted by a telescopic means 13 on leg 11 and pivots by which the furnace is attached to the legs 10, 11. In a modification, the hearth is canted only transversely to the longitudinal centre line of the furnace and the discharge shoot runs sideways out of the furnace at the same cant as the hearth, the forgings swinging around the end of the bar 7. The furnace may be fired by coke or coal, fuel oil or gas or may be heated by an electrical heating resistor or an induction coil.
