Title: Process for the production of a cementing or binding agent for cementing abrasive to steel discs
IPC: C08K3/22
Filed: 1923-11-23
Abstract: A cementing or binding composition, particularly suitable for securing abrasive coverings to steel discs, consists of a mixture of shellac with a porous mineral such as chalk, heavy spar or pumice and a non-porous metallic oxide of great heat capacity, for example iron oxide with or without Bakelite A or Resinit for increasing the fluidity.  A preferred method of preparation consists in mixing equal parts of Bakelite A, pumice and iron oxide and adding the mixture to rather less than its own weight of shellac.  An alternative composition for discs of intermediate size consists of equal parts of shellac pumice, iron oxide and Bakelite A.  The product may be melted, stirred, solidified and ground.  Specification 10374/13, [Class 60, Grinding or abrading &c.], is referred to. p   The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) describes the use of artificial resins in general for increasing the fluidity of the composition.  This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in or relating to gramophone and like machines
IPC: G11B19/265
Filed: 1925-11-24
Abstract: 266,791. Billing, N. Pemberton-. Nov. 24, 1925. Speed-regulating. - Relates to gramophones and the like provided with means whereby the turntable may be run either at a constant angular velocity or at velocity so varying that the linear speed of the record surface relatively to the stylus is constant. The main feature of the invention consists in providing, in combination with a cam driven by the gramophone motor so as to regulate the governor of the motor and thus vary the speed progressively, means for releasing the cam-driving connection when desired, to permit of manual actuation of the cam, and a friction clutch which is comprised in the connecting gear between the cam and the motor, so that adjustment of the cam may be made at any time without interrupting the drive. The mechanism comprising the cam and parts actuating or directly controlled thereby may constitute a unit capable of attachment to an ordinary gramophone motor. In the construction shown, an arm 29 is secured to a bracket 30, from which the usual brake-arm 17 of the governor (not shown) depends, the bracket being adapted to rock about a pivot pin 32. The outer end of the arm 29 engages with a snail cam 28, mounted on a spindle 24, which is geared to one of the main wheels 21 of the spring motor. The train of gearing comprises a wheel 20 which rotates with but is slidably carried by the spindle of a worm 22, meshing with a worm-wheel 23. This drives the camspindle 24 through a friction-clutch, comprising a disc 25 solid with the wheel 23 and spring arms 26 fixed to the spindle 24. The driving connection between the motor and the cam is broken when required by turning a spindle 41 which carries a cam 40 adapted to lift the wheel 20 against the action of a spring, out of gear with the wheel 21.

Abstract: 815,713. Seats. LORENZ, A. Oct. 25, 1955 [Nov. 5, 1954], No. 30457/55. Class 52(2) In a reclining chair of the type in which a body supporting structure is movably mounted in a support and movement thereof to reclining position actuates a linkage which projects a leg-rest to extended position, the linkage includes two pairs of links, each pair being pivoted together, the links of the first pair being pivoted to the support and the leg-rest respectively and the links of the second pair being pivoted to intermediate points of the links of the first pair. As shown in Fig. 1, a back rest 16 and seat 22 are mounted on a support 10 by a common pivot 20. The first pair of links 38, 84 are pivoted together at 36 and respectively to the support 10 and the leg-rest 48 at 40, 50. The second pair of links 26, 30 are pivoted together at 28 and respectively to a downward extension 18 of the back rest and link 34 at 24, 32. Rearward movement of the back rest causes link 26 to swing the linkage about pivot 40 and link 34 projects the leg-rest. During this motion a link 44 lifts the seat 22. The motion of the leg-rest is controlled by a link 54 pivoted at 56 to the front of the seat and having a telescopic connection 52 with the leg-rest. In a modification, Fig. 2, the movement of the legrest is controlled by a link 158 pivoted to the front of the seat at 160 and to a link 168 at 166, link 168 being pivoted to the leg-rest at 170 and link 158 having a pin- and-slot connection 162 with link 134.
