Title: Improvements in Apparatus for Gumming Envelope Blanks and the like.
Inventor: WANTZEN ANTON JOSEPH
IPC: B31B19/00
Filed: 1913-07-14
Granted: 1914-05-21
Abstract: 16,207. Wantzen, A. J. July 14. Coating - machines. - For gumming envelope blanks &c., the pile of blanks is supported partly on a gumming-slot which gums the lowest blank, and partly on moving devices which periodically liberate the lowest blank to permit its withdrawal. The pile of blanks a rests on the gumming-slot h of an L-shaped container g, the slot being closed when not in use by a spring valve e. The blanks are also supported by disks b rotating in opposite directions, and so arranged that cut-away portions come opposite one another as shown in Fig. 2, when a pneumatic suction device k has moved up to flex the lowest blank and is on its downward path. The blank is flexed along the edges b<1> of the cut-away parts of the disks, and the continued rotation causes the edges b<1> to recede and the edges b<2> to enter between the flexed lowest blank and the rest of the pile, so that, on the farther rotation of the disks disengaging the edge b<1>, the lowest blank is free to be withdrawn. The withdrawal, which effects the gumming, is effected by overhanging edges of rollers m which are cut away as shown in Fig. 2. The rollers m are carried on spindles o, which also carry rollers p, the spindles o being carried by arms q which are pulled by springs r towards a feed-roller n which may communicate their motion to the rollers m, p. The roller n is recessed where it comes opposite to the gummed part of the blank. An arcuate guide k<1> may be provided to guide the blank between the tapes w on its way to the folding-apparatus z. The moving nozzle k may be operated by an arm s pivoted at t and a cam u. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 10,589/13.

Abstract: 29,240. Widegren, E. H., and Widegren, K. A. Dec. 30, 1912, [Convention date]. Electro-magnetic switches.-A relay 143 comprises a winding in each of the lines 125, 126, the windings being held in place on a polarized core 167 by springs 165, 166 so that the contact 171 is normally closed. Alternate positive and negative impulses of equal strength do not open the contact 171, as this contact is placed at a node of vibration of the spring 170. When, however, an unbalance is produced between the positive and negative impulses, the coils move to the right and open the contact 171. Make-and-break switches, mechanical. -- A make-and-break device for transmitting a continuous series of current impulses of alternating polarity from a continuous current source and provided with means for varying the effective values of the positive and negative impulses comprises a drum 93, shown as developed in a plane, and comprising a number of segments 94 ... 100. Mounted on the axis of the drum are two commutators 104, 105, also shown as developed in a plane, and comprising a number of segments 106, 107, 108 and 113, 114, 115 respectively. The brushes 101, 102 are adjustable in an axial direction, and with the brush 101 in the position shown a positive impulse from half the battery 74 is sent to the line 125 over the lead 129, segment 114, lead 120, and segment 94. When the segment 95 is reached, a positive impulse is sent from the battery 74 over the lead 127, segment 107, and lead 121. Assuming that the contact 134 is open, the segment 98 has the effect of reducing the strength of part of the impulse, as a path is made from the segment 106 to the segment 107 over the resistance 140. When the segment 96 is reached by the brush 101, the brushes 112, 119 have reached the segments 107, 114 respectively, and a negative impulse is sent from half the battery 74 over the lead 130, segment 114, lead 120, and segment 96. The segment 99 has no effect upon this impulse as the segments 113, 114 are bridged by the contact 135. When the segment 97 is reached, a negative impulse is sent from the battery 74 over the lead 128, segment 107, and lead 121. The segment 100 causes the strength of this impulse to be reduced through the resistance 124 being inserted in the circuit. The same cycle of current is sent by the brush 102 into the line 126. When the contact 134 is closed, the effect of the segment 98 is annulled, and the opening of the contact 135 causes the segment 99 to produce a break in the current. Similar variations in the transmitted current may be produced by inserting resistances in the circuit by separately-operated keys.
