Title: Improvements in manometers
IPC: G01L9/00
Filed: 1922-10-09
Abstract: 213,625. Martin, H. Oct. 9, 1922. Indicating. - Relates to improvements in the manometers described in Specifications 12371/16 and 165,177. The circuit of the electromagnet described in the latter Specification is energized by an intermittent direct current or by a pulsating or alternating current so that sticking of the soft iron armatures to the sides of the manometer tubes is prevented and vibration is set up in the instrument which serves to reduce frictional effects between the mercury and the containing tubes. The mercury chambers 29 containing the floats 30 are of larger area than the tubes 28 in which move the rods 51 carrying the armatures 26<a>, 27<a>. Pole pieces 26, 27, Fig. 3 are fitted to the magnets 23 and the common core is surrounded by an exciting coil 24. The spindle 14 of the core 15, Fig. 2, is connected by gears 18, 19 to a sleeve 12 carrying a recording arm 13, and by gears 16, 17 to a pointer spindle 11. The recorder may be omitted. Fig. 4 shows a device suitable for interrupting the current in the exciting coil 24, and Fig. 5 the connections. The interrupter comprises a solenoid winding 31 which when energized draws up a plunger 32 and by a pin 32<1> on the plunger rod breaks a contact 33. This action breaks the circuit of the solenoid and also the circuit of the coil 24. A spring-pulled three armed lever then makes contact at 34 and re-energizes the coil 24, and the plunger 32 falls under gravity and breaks contact 34 and makes contact at 33. A non- inductive resistance 35 is inserted to allow of adjustment and to prevent sparking at the contacts, and an equivalent resistance 36 is provided. The frequency of the interruption may be varied by altering the resistance 35 or by cushioning or loading the solenoid plunger. A brass screw 34<1> prevents sticking of the solenoid. The sensitiveness of the instrument may be increased by fitting a coiled spring 48, Fig. 1, to the pointer, or a counterweight 49, attached by a spring 50 to the magnets 23. Solenoids may be arranged to act on the magnets for the same purpose. According to the Provisional Specification when the instrument is used for boiler water level indications, the moving part may be fitted with electrical contacts adapted to operate a lamp or bell signal, or to control plant for maintaing the flow or level of the liquid, and arrangements similar to those described in Specification 164,828, [Class 106 (ii), Dynamometers &c.], may be provided for repeating the indications at distant points.

Title: Improvements in or relating to a method for operating internal combustion engines with fuels with gasify at low temperatures and apparatus for use according to said method
IPC: F02K9/00
Filed: 1936-10-10
Abstract: 480,879. Reservoirs; special fuels. BRAUER, E. Oct. 10, 1936, No. 27554. [Class 7 (ii)] A reservoir, in which a normally gaseous fuel is stored in liquid or solid condition, is maintained, during the operation of the engine, at a pressure below one atmosphere. Examples of such fuels are hydrogen, carbon-monoxide, and methane, or mixtures thereof. A degree of sub-cooling is maintained so that the fuel does not become heated substantially above its atmospheric boiling temperature during normal pauses in the operation of the engine. In Fig. 1 the heat-insulated reservoir 15, which has a pressure gauge 17 and a safety valve 19, is connected to the engine cylinder 8 through a pump 20 which maintains the necessary negative pressure in the reservoir, air being mixed with the gas before admission to the cylinder. In a modification the pump is omitted and the gas is drawn directly into the cylinder during the first part of the suction stroke, air being admitted subsequently in the stroke by a separate valve. Fig. 2 shows an arrangement in which the reservoir is subdivided into parts 32, 33, 34 and the load on the pump is reduced by supplying. heat to the part in use, the remaining parts being kept under negative pressure and the whole connected by operating cocks 38, 39, 40 during pauses of operation of the engine. If the cock 39 is open so that the pump 20 draws gas from the part 33, this gas is heated in a surface heater 35, kept at atmospheric temperature, and returned to a dip tube 36 by closing a cock 37. By opening appropriate cocks 58, 58<1>, the gas is either supplied to the engine cylinder 8 or recirculated through the dip tube, Fig. 3 shows a part. 41 of a subdivided reservoir in which a pump 13 by alternative operation of cocks 46, 47, maintains a suction or pressure in a dip tube 48 provided with non-return valves 49, 50 which thus acts as a pump to force the liquified gas into an engine cylinder 51 operating on the Diesel cycle ; alternatively the liquified gas may be vaporized before it reaches the engine cylinder. The dip tubes may be heated by an electric heating coil 42, or by exhaust gas. The operation of the cocks may be effected automatically through a contact-monometer and electromagnetic devices or an electric motor 45.
