Granted: 1910-07-21
Abstract: 17,478. Lannmark, J. K. July 27. Corking. - A corking-machine is provided with an auxiliary compressor, connected to the ordinary compressor, to squeeze the liquid out of the cork, and with means for preventing such liquid from finding its way into the bottle. The auxiliary compressor 10, Figs. 1 and 5, is connected with the ordinary compressor 3, so that when one is in pressing position the other is out of action. To prevent the liquid from entering the bottle, a tongue 12, formed on the underside of the compressor 10, covers the channel 16 leading to the mouth of the bottle, and passes through openings 13 in the frame 8 in its forward movement to facilitate the discharge of the liquid. On the opening of the compressor 10, the ordinary plunger 15 inserts the cork that was previously in the compressor 3, and the cork just released from the compressor 10 falls down the channel 16, or is pushed down by an arm 19.

Title: Improvements in Carbureters for Internal Combustion Engines.
Inventor: MORTON HENRY SHAW
IPC: F02M7/12
Filed: 1910-02-22
Granted: 1910-10-20
Abstract: 4343. Morton, H. S., and Anderson, L. Feb. 22. Spray carburettors.- The air and mixture throttle valves and the fuel valve are actuated simultaneously; the fuel valve may be independently adjusted. The main passage of the carburettor has an air-inlet 11 and mixture - outlet 12, and is interrupted by two concentric cylindrical throttle valves 14, 15, with closed upper ends between which is a piece 57 engaging pins on these closed ends, so that movement of one of the valves in one direction produces motion of the other valve in the reverse direction. The valves may be adjusted by a handle 33 fixed to a rotatable cap 30 working over a flange 31 on the casing 25 of the carburettor. Fuel is admitted to the float chamber 39 through :a valve 43 controlled by floats 49. The fuel nozzle is shown at 84, and the supply to this nozzle is regulated by a valve 55, to the upper end of which is pivoted a lever 59, one end 60 of which is pivoted to the casing 30, the other end being guided by a slot 62 in an adjustable block 63 secured in position by a nut 68. By altering the inclination of this slot, the fuel valve 55 is adjusted relatively to the valves 14, 15. The block is adjusted by worm gearing actuated by milled heads 73. Spraying of the fuel is produced by compressed air or other fluid admitted by a pipe 80 and issuing through a nozzle 78 on to the fuel-nozzle 84. Atmospheric air is admitted through a grating 81. The floats may be depressed at starting to flood the carburettor.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the Production of Glazed, Enamelled or analogous Surfaces upon Tiles, Bricks, Metal Sheets and the like.
Inventor: DRESSLER CONRAD
IPC: B28B11/04
Filed: 1910-05-03
Granted: 1911-04-13
Abstract: 10,966. Dressler, C. May 3. Enamelling.-Tiles, bricks, metal sheets, &c. are coated with liquid enamel by means of whirling spraying-nozzles q. The tiles &c. are delivered on to an inclined plane, either by hand or by an endless conveyer, and slide down the plane on knife-edge wheels g to a chain conveyer d. The conveyer d carries the tiles with their edges in contact beneath the nozzles q and delivers them over rollers c to a second conveyer e, which moves more quickly than the conveyer d and consequently causes the tiles to become spaced apart. Guide-wheels may be arranged to engage the sides of the tiles during their movement, but are unnecessary if the tiles have recessed backs. The elevator used comprises two opposing chain carriers i, fitted with ledges j supporting the tiles, a rotating brush k being arranged above the elevator to move the tiles on to the plane g. The liquid enamel is supplied to the spraying-nozzles through a pipe p from a closed reservoir m, into which compressed air is injected through a perforated ring s. The compressed air agitates the liquid and passes off through a pipe o to the spraying-nozzles. A vent valve t permits the air to escape from the reservoir when the sprayers are not in use. The surplus enamel is collected in a trough or troughs u arranged beneath the carrier d, and may be removed or returned to the reservoir m from time to time.
