Patent GB-191314077-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Taper Turning Attachments for Capstan and Automatic Lathes.
Inventor: PRICE FREDERICK
IPC: B23B5/38
Filed: 1913-06-18
Granted: 1914-02-26
Abstract: 14,077. Price, F. June 18. Turning. - A taperturning attachment for lathes and like machines consists of a body a adapted to be attached to the turret head or cross-slide, so as to move with it, and having thereon a slide - way t for a poppet head b held in position on the end of the slide by a spiral spring s surrounding a guiding-tube v. The forward end of the body also carries slide-way f on which moves a cross-slide g carrying an adjustable tool post h, and fixed to the slide g is a slotted bar e adapted to be adjustably secured to a block which can slide in a longitudinal guide d adjustably fixed to the poppet head b. As the body a is fed up to the work, the poppet engages the end of the work, whereupon the poppet head and guide d become stationary while the body a and tool move forward against the action of the spring and the tool cuts a taper on the work. In the form shown in Fig. 7 for attachment to the cross-slide of a turret lathe, a member b is adapted' to come against a stop p to stop the motion of the member. When used for taper boring, an arm pivoted to a fixed part of the machine may engage the member b, the boring- tool being mounted on the tool slide, and the arm swung out of the way when not required. For use on long work, the poppet may be replaced by a bush q, Fig. 4, through which the work slides until the bush engages a shoulder or collar on the work, thus arresting the movement of the poppet head.

Granted: 1914-03-12
Abstract: 19,268. Rushton, T. Aug. 25. [Addition to 10,100/13.] Electric clocks.-In a clock of the kind described in the parent Specification, in which a longitudinallymovable worm is employed, the worm gears with the clock-train directly, without the interposition of a driving-spring. The arrangement is such that at each make and break of the circuit of the electro-magnet, due to the movement of the wormspindle, the armature makes a single vibration only. In the arrangement shown, the spring 14 normally drives the clock-train through the wormspindle 10, acting as a rack. While this occurs, the armature 2 is held up by a spring 4, with its back-contacts 6, 7 closed. When the circuit is completed at 15, the armature makes one vibration, re-energizing the spring 14 by rotating the spindle 10 through a pawl 8 and ratchet-wheel 9. As the armature recedes from the magnet-poles, the contacts 15 are opened before the back-contacts 6, 7 are again closed. The spring 14 may be replaced by a weight.

Title: Improved Apparatus for Target Practice.
Inventor: SMITH WILLIAM
IPC: F41A33/02
Filed: 1914-11-19
Granted: 1915-11-18
Abstract: 22,765. Smith, W. Nov. 19. Teaching rifle practice.-Consists of apparatus wherein the aim is indicated by a spot of light thrown on to the target by a light-projector mounted independently of the rifle but controlled thereby. The target is preferably a moving picture on a screen. Special means is provided for disconnecting the light-projector from the rifle and for stopping the film of the kinematograph so that, after the trigger has been pulled, both the spot of light and the picture remain stationary. The apparatus may be coin-freed. In the construction shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, the rifle is mounted so as to be universally movable on a stand q and communicates its angular movements to a frame h. The frame h carries horizontal and vertical drums o<1>, l round which pass wires which transmit the movements of the frame h to a bar v, Fig. 3, carrying the light-projector. The gun is held in a fixed angular relation to the frame h by a clutch, one member of which is a sliding rod e normally held in the forward or clutched position, shown in Fig. 1, by a catch a controlled by the trigger of the rifle. When the trigger is pulled, the rod c is released and is moved rearwards into the unclutched position by a spring g. The rifle can then be moved without affecting the frame h or the position of the spot of light on the screen. The mechanism for stopping the movement of the picture film comprises a sliding catch f, Fig. 4, keyed to the shaft of the kinematograph and operated by the armature h of an electro-magnet l, a stop j on the armature adapted to engage a stop k on a wheel fixed to the shaft, a driven pulley c freely mounted on the shaft and adapted to be engaged by the clutch f, and a fly-wheel a freely mounted on the shaft between friction washers. The fly-wheel is for the purpose of preventing rebound when the apparatus is stopped.

IPC: F16C29/04
Filed: 1915-02-01
Abstract: 1606. British Mathews, Ltd., [Buck, H. J.]. Feb. 1. Roller-ways.-The cage of an antifriction bearing for gravity roller-way conveyers is loosely mounted on the shaft supporting the roll and fits in a head permanently attached to the roller in such a manner that the cage may be readily withdrawn without the necessity for ramoving the head member from the roller. In the form shown, the shafts 4 of the rollers 7 rest in slots 3 in the side plates 2 of the conveyer and are secured by locking-plates 5. The end pieces 8 are secured to the rollers by pressed indentations 9 and are bent inwards at 12 to form chambers to receive the ball races, consisting of pairs of flanged rings 17, 19. Each ring 17 has projections 21, preferably bent slightly to retain the ring 19 and adapted to enter corresponding recesses in the flange 13 of the ring 12 to lock the ball race in position. The race is thus free to be withdrawn longitudinally from the chamber in the end piece 8, which remains permanently in the roller. The rings 17 may alternatively engage the chambers 12 frictionally, in which case the flange 13 may be continuous and the projections on the rings 17 may be shortened or omitted. In this form, the race is reversed, so that the flanges 18, 13 are in contact with each other. The balls rest in grooves on sleeves 14 which fit the shafts in such a manner as to allow them to turn slowly when the conveyer operates and so expose all parts of the grooves successively to the pressure of the balls. The sleeves may alternatively be locked on the shafts.
