Title: Improvements in and connected with Apparatus for Drying Vegetables and other Substances or Materials.
Inventor: MORTON JOHN HENRY
IPC: F26B21/00
Filed: 1918-06-07
Abstract: 130,714. Morton, J. H. June 7, 1918. Chambers and buildings; air, controlling circulation and temperature of; heating-fittings.-Vegetable or other material to be dried is placed in trays mounted on trucks which can be run on rails through a long drying-chamber. Air drawn by fans through the apparatus is heated in a compartment at une side of the drying-chamber and passes through flues to an outlet, or may be partly or entirely returned to the heating-compartment. The trucks 1 carrying the trays, which may be separated into sets by partitions 16, are introduced into the chamber through double doors which act as an air lock. The heating-apparatus consists of tubes 10 made in sections and preferably mounted on wheel trucks to facilitate removal. The heating-chamber is separated from the drying-chamber by a well 10<a>, which may be provided with openings 10<b> fitted with flaps. Between the heating and drying chambers is a passage to which access may be obtained through doors 20. In this passage, an air-deflecting screen 12 is suspended. This screen consists of a series of slots 21 threaded on cords so that the distance between them and their inclination may be varied. The apparatus is divided into sections by transverse partitions, and each section is provided with a fan 4. Air enters the conduit 7 placed at the top of the chamber, passes down the passage 8, and enters the heating-chamber by an opening 9. From the heating- chamber, the air passes over the wall 10<a> and, if the flap is open, through the opening 10<b>, through the screen 12 to the drying-trays, and thence to the fan 5, which forces it along the channel 17, 19 communicating with the outlet 19<a>. A counterbalanced flap valve 18 disposed in the channel 17 can be lowered to direct all or part of the air into the heating-chamber. The outlet 19<a> being adjacent to the inlet conduit 7 causes the incoming air to be heated. A screen 15 similar to the screen 12 may be arranged as shown. In a modified construction, the whole of the seetions are supplied with air by a single fan, the various air passages being fitted with valves so that any section can be cut out of action.

Title: Improvements in or relating to means for measuring and recording the fuel-consumption of internal combustion engines
IPC: G01F3/20
Filed: 1937-02-08
Abstract: 475,030. Liquid-meters. BARRETT, J. B. Feb. 8, 1937, No. 9444/36. [Class 69 (ii)] In a liquid-meter of the kind comprising a chamber or chambers with a displaceable wall operatively connected with indicating means and with valve mechanism for alternatively placing the chamber in communication with the supply pipe the wall or walls is or are formed of metal and constructed with concentric corrugations. The metal chambers 2, 2a are formed in pairs connected by pipe 4 and having an upper wall fixed to the outer casing 1 whilst the lower wall is attached to a rod 5 slidable in a guide 6. The walls of these chambers are formed with discs with concentric corrugations. The valve for controlling alternatively the admission of the liquid by the pipes 3, 3a to these chambers is an oscillating one in a chest 21. The mechanism for moving this valve comprises links 7 attached to the wall of each chamber and passing to a pivoted lever 8 upon which is mounted disc 11 having connecting arms 12 with a cam disc 14 freely mounted on the valve shaft 15. The other face of the disc 11 is connected by telescopic spring links 13 with a disc 19 secured to the shaft 15 which inside the valve casing 21 has an arm engaging a slot in a double piston valve whereby it is oscillated. The disc 19 has notches 29 for coaction with detents 30 on arms which are movable by the cam disc 14 through spring- pressed push rods 32 and arms 31. Initial. movement of the disc 14 produces elongation of one of the spring rods until the detent is released whereupon the disc 19 is moved rapidly over and the valve is moved from one end position to the other without intermediate dwell. Movement of the shaft 15 may be used to operate an indicator direct. Pressure in the measuring chambers may be used to actuate the indicator. For this purpose pipes 42, 42a are led from the supply pipes to a pair of bellows 35, 35a, the inner ends of which are connected by a rod 36 having collars 36a with which engage a lever 38 on a shaft 39 which is geared through a ratchet mechanism with a spindle 41 that extends through the casing 1 and is coupled to an indicator pointer. In a modification, one pair of chambers only is used, the space between them and the outer casing forming the other measuring chamber. Instead of the double rocking lever 8, a single lever on a shaft corresponding to the shaft 9 is rocked by engagement with collars on a rod corresponding to the guide rod 5.

Title: Improvements in or relating to a device for dressing profiled grinding wheels
IPC: B24B53/075
Filed: 1940-05-31
Abstract: 540,588. Trueing grinding-wheels. SOC. GENEVOISE D'INSTRUMENTS DE PHYSIQUE. May 31, 1940, No. 9576. Convention date, June 24, 1939. [Class 60] In a device for trueing grinding-wheels such as are used for cutting screw-threads, the trueing tool is caused to move continuously over the straight flanks and the apex of the grinding- wheel by continuously operating in either direction a single driving member such as a handwheel. In the apparatus shown in Fig. 1, a slide 2, provided with a holder 2b for a diamond 1, is mounted on a swivelling bed 13 having a pivot 20 mounted on anti-friction bearings 21, 22 in a base 27. A rack 5 on the slide is geared to a shaft 10 which is geared to a shaft 12 provided with a hand-wheel. The slide is yieldingly coupled to the bed by a spring 23 which is mounted in a housing 6 in the bed and abuts on loose collars which are mounted on a rod 26 on the slide and abut on the ends of the housing and shoulders on the rod. Movement of the bed is limited by means of an abutment 19 thereon and co-operating stops adjustable in an arcuate slot 28 in the base. To true the round part a, b, Fig. 4, of the grinding-wheel W, the hand-wheel on the shaft 12 is turned and the diamond 1 is thereby caused to travel in a circular path about the axis c of the shaft 10. When the bed is arrested by the left-hand adjustable stop, further turning of the handwheel causes the spring 23 to yield, the slide is traversed on the bed, and the diamond traverses the straight part b, d. On reversal of the handwheel, the bed is maintained stationary by the spring until the diamond has re-traversed the part b, d. Thereupon, the spring again couples the slide to the bed, and the diamond again traverses the part a, b. The bed is then arrested by the right-hand adjustable stop, and the diamond traverses the straight part a, e. To grind a flat, instead of the round part a, b, the bed is locked by moving a forked lever 24 into engagement with the abutment 19.
