Title: Improvements in and relating to Can Body Forming Machines.
Inventor: THOMPSON WILLIAM PHILLIPS
IPC: B21D51/26
Filed: 1912-10-07
Granted: 1913-08-14
Abstract: 22,797. Thompson, W. P., [Continental Can Co.]. Oct. 7. C u r v i n g; bending- formers; soldering. - In a lap - seam can - body forming machine, the edges of the successive blanks, after bending, are engaged by a single pair of separate and independent gauge members to position the blanks and ensure the same definite amount of overlap of each can body. The blanks are fed in succession by a chain through rolls 30, 31, a bending - plate 33, and guiding-plates 35, 36 to curl the blanks, which are then engaged by arms 24 on standards 19 mounted on a succession of travelling carriers 11 linked together so as to form a chain. The edge a engages a gauge 39 pivoted at its forward end and yieldingly connected by a spring 46 to a lead bar 37 bolted to the table 32, and the edge b after leaving the rolls drops on to a ledge 41 and during the traverse of the carrier moves against the rib 38 of the bar 37 over the recessed bar 21 in the horn 10, which is fixed to its standard by a nut and bolt, which may be formed integral with the horn. The rib 38 engages a recess in the horn. The guide-plates 35, 36, which are separated from the can body at the forming station afterwards close round and hold the can body in shape as shown in Fig. 13. The edges of the body move along in contact with the gauges 38, 39, until the cutaway portion 39<1> of the bar 39 is reached, when the edge a enters a groove 54 in the bar 37. Just at this point the inner edge b is provided with flux from a fluxing-device. On continuing the motion the edge b engages a plate 49 fixed to the back of the bar 39 and the edge a is pressed up by the bar 39 and engages the surface 55 of a spring-pressed U-shaped plate which at the same time holds the edge b on the horn 10. A finger projecting from an oscillating shaft then engages the end of the blank to press it evenly against the arms 24 on the carrier. At this stage a clamping-plate 29, pivoted to the carrier and tilted by a fixed cam-plate on the framing through a roller 28 comes into contact with the edge a so as to clamp it on to the horn, the bar 39 being forced down into a groove on the horn. The carriers pass on to the heating-devices where a number of burners are directed against the overlapped edges. They pass next to a soldering-iron, which may also be gas-heated. The solder is fed either to the joint or to the iron by ratchet mechanism from a supply spool. The joint next passes through a sweating station, is then cooled by air jets and a cooling-wheel, and is finally led to a conveyer. The carrier which may be of any form may be continuously or intermittently operated.

Title: Improvements in Spinning Tops and other like Toys.
Inventor: ARCHIBALD ROBERT DOUGLAS
IPC: A63H1/24
Filed: 1912-10-16
Granted: 1913-01-30
Abstract: 23,640. Archibald, R. D. Oct. 16. Tops; illuminating-toys.-Tops and other toys which depend on rotary motion for their actuation are provided with illuminating-means which are operative only when the toy is spinning. In one form, a lamp 5, Fig. 1, has one terminal connected to the top casing and the other to dry batteries 8. A flexible and weighted switch 12 flies outwards under centrifugal force and completes the circuit through the casing when the top is spinning. In another form of switch, Fig. 2, the casing 1 and spindle 2 are capable of limited relative movement controlled by a pivoted spring-controlled bell-crank lever 21, one end of which carries a flexible contact brush 24. When the top is not in use, the spindle is held depressed and the brush out of contact with the casing. Figs. 3 and 4 show an arrangement whereby lamps of different colours may be employed, the colours being changed during spinning. Lamps of two different colours are connected by leads 25, 27 with segments A, B respectively of a disk 26, a third segment C of which is connected by a lead 28 to the battery. A brush 30, mounted on the spindle 2, Fig. 3, connects segments A, C or B, C. The disk-carrier 29 is carried by the top body, the spindle 2 passing freely through the centre of the disk and only rotating with the casing by friction. If, during spinning, the spindle is tapped, its momentary stoppage permits the casing and disk to move relatively to the spindle and brush and so switches one set of lamps out and the other set in.

Abstract: 819. Richard, J. Jan. 12. Shutters with sliding plates.-In shutters with a speed-regulating brake or damper which can be put out of operation, and a supplementary spring for increasing the speed of instantaneous exposures, the brake is put out of operation and the auxiliary spring brought into operation by a single controlling-device. The brake or damper o, Fig. 5, is connected to the lever i effecting the release of the closing- member of the shutter by the supplementary spring l, which can be tensioned to supplement the action of the spring which nominally operates the lever i. Fig. 5 shows the parts set for normal exposures. The piston o is limited in movement to the left by the rod n. This rod n is carried on a movable mount m and is adjustable by a rack and pinion q<1>. Fig. 6 shows the spring l tensioned, and the parts in the position for rapid exposures and in which, on releasing the shutter, the brake o is inoperative. The invention is shown as applied to a sliding-plate shutter with plates a, b, Fig. 2, controlled by springs g, h. On setting the shutter, the pin c on the blade a engages behind the hooked end of the release lever d, and the pin e on the blade b engages behind the end f<2> of the leverf. On releasing the shutter, the pin c and the blade a are first released : the lever i then commences to act on the sloping part f<3> of the lever f under the control of the spring j and brake k, or, for very rapid exposures, instantaneously lifts the lever f and releases the blade b under the combined action of the two springs j, l. The adjustment of the tension of the spring l gives a range of rapid exposures.
