Title: New or Improved Method of and Apparatus for Actuating or Driving the Travellers or Carriages in Machine used in the Manufacture of Tulle, Lace, and the like.
Inventor: FARIGOULE JEAN
Filed: 1899-05-19
Granted: 1900-04-14
Abstract: 10,595. Farigoule, J. Jan. 11, [date applied for under Sec. 103 of Patents &c. Act, A.D. 1883]. Lace machines.-Relates to a method of and apparatus for driving the carriages. Each carriage a has a notch b on its under edge. A number of levers c, one to each carriage, are pivoted at d, and by means of a rocking shaft f can be raised into gear with the notches b or lowered out of gear. Each lever is acted on, either above or below its pivot, by spring pins i in rocking frames j. A number of bars l with holes through them are controlled by a jacquard. If the bars are arranged so that any particular pin passes through the holes and meets no obstruction, it acts on its particular lever either above or below the pivot d, as the case may be, and so shifts the top end of the lever, and with it the carriage, either to the right or left. The catch bars g now separate, and take the carriages into the comb o or the comb p, as the case may be. Springs or weights return the levers c. The combs o, p are now traversed to right or left to produce crossings. This traversing is effected by a cam and lever ; an intermediate lever controlled by the jacquard is interposed at the required time between the end of the comb o or p and the constantly-operated traversing lever above mentioned. Figs. 6 and 7 show modified forms of the levers for moving the carriages ; the pins i cause the parts c<2> to engage with or disengage from the ordinary notches in the carriages a, after which the levers are bodily moved to bring the carriages into the outer combs ; hence the levers c<1> also act as catch bars. In a modification shown in Fig. 13, the levers c are pivoted at d, and are raised into gear with the carriages by a cam e on a shaft f. The levers are controlled by drawbars i, which are raised and lowered by pins m, m<1> acting on projections i<1>. The pins m are raised to one of two positions, or left at rest, by a double jacquard box o, which is raised or lowered by a cam q. The draw-bars are acted on by rocking levers j, j, and, if a bar is not raised by the jacquard, the corresponding lever c is moved in one direction ; if the bar is fully raised, the lever c and carriage a are moved in the other direction, and, if the bar is only partially raised, then the lever c remains stationary. The reciprocating motion of the outer comb bars may be obtained by a pivoted lever having a bowl running on a cam actuated by worm gearing from the main shaft, or by a rocking spindle j, Fig. 16, having right and left threaded screws upon which are mounted the two tappet sleeves of the supports of the comb bars. To allow of slight adjustment of the jacquard bars, auxiliary draw bars t, Fig. 15, with holes spaced slightly differently from the holes in the bars s, are interposed.

Granted: 1899-07-22
Abstract: 11,217. Urquhart, R. J., [Betche, H.]. May 30. Direct explosive-gas pressure apparatus; vacuum apparatus.-Relates to explosion apparatus in which the water forced out of one cylinder sucks out the products of combustion in another cylinder. When the charge is exploded in the cylinder A', the float B<1> forces the water through the valve C<1> and outlet s' to the sea, an ejector action'being established'in the pipe R<1> allowing the flow.of water to clear the cylinder A of fired gases and cause a vacuum, so that water enters this cylinder and forces up the float B. In the meantime, some of the water from the cylinder A' enters the vessel D<1> and forces up the piston f<1>, and the air compressed passes through the non-return valve d. When the cylinder A is nearly filled, the float B strikes the rod i, and swings the lever I so as to unlatch the hook h and allow the rod H to fall, close the valve c, and open the cock E, so that compressed air flows through the pipe e and draws in a charge of benzene &c. from the pipe z. The mixture enters at the top of the cylinder A, where it is fired as soon as the rod l operates the valve K to close the channel of the pipe R<1> and open that of the pipe R. The water discharged from the cylinder A raises the valve c and rod b, the cock E is shut, and the hook h afterwards snaps over the lever I.
