Title: Apparatus for enabling a uniform flow of liquid containing matters in suspension to be maintained over a length of weir lip
IPC: C13B10/06
Filed: 1923-11-15
Abstract: 213,857. Stewart & Co., Ltd., D., and Kilpatrick, W. Nov. 15, 1923. Continuous discharge apparatus with stationary containers. - A uniform flow of liquid over a weir A<3> is maintained by means of a driven fluted or faceted drum B running in a trough A. A cover A<2> extends over half the width of the trough and the fluid is admitted through it by a pipe A<4>. The weir lip may be serrated. To bring the fluid to a relatively narrow weir-lip, the fluting on the drum may be helical or double helical. The device may be used in sugar-cane mills to secure an even distribution of dilute juice containing a large proportion of finely divided cane fibre over the partially crushed cane as it passes from one unit to another in the mill train. The device maintains the liquid in agitation and its solid content in suspension.

Patent GB-230013-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in methods and apparatus for the measurement of depths or distances at sea by means of the ultra-audible echo
IPC: G01S15/14
Filed: 1924-12-02
Abstract: 230,013. Langevin, P. March 1, 1924, [Convention date]. Addition to 227,801. Thermionic valve circuits.-Comprises a thermionic valve system for use in connection with acoustic depth sounding, so arranged that current flows through the main valve during the interval between the emission of a signal and the return of the echo, but is interrupted at other times. The piezo-electric instrument Q acts as a sound-transmitter for the original signal and subsequently as a sound-receiver for the echo. In the first case the oscillations in the circuit QL, passing via the secondary 131 and amplifier M are too powerful to have any effect on the valve L1, since the amplifier is so adjusted as to reach saturation when the input is large. The secondary B2 is able, however, to influence the valve L4, the current in which is normally inhibited by the grid bias P2. Some current therefore passes in the plate circuit of the valve L4 during each cycle; the grid potential of the valve L3 is therefore made more negative, and the plate current in this valve is stopped; consequently the grid potential of the valve L2 rises and current flows through the ammeter. It is stated that this current will continue to flow until the arrival of the echo. When the echo is received the oscillations generated in the coil B2 are too feeble to effect the valve L4, but in this case the amplifier M enables those in the coil B1 to cause flow of current in the valve L1. The grid of the valve L2 thus becomes more negative and the flow through the indicator A is stopped. Specification 226,795 is referred to.
Patent GB-193905-A (GB)
Title: Improvements relating to the simultaneous spinning and winding on to bobbins or the like of rovings or the like
IPC: D01H1/00
Filed: 1921-10-31
Abstract: 193,905. Zachariadis, T. Oct. 31, 1921. Spindle-apparatus; stop-motions.-In apparatus for spinning a roving into thread of any desired degree of twist and simultaneously winding the thread on a bobbin, the roving is passed through the hollow spindle 9 of a rotating frame, passed around a cylinder 50 which rotates about its own axis and also with the frame, and wound on a bobbin 51 which is frictionally rotated by the cylinder 50. The frame comprises an outer rectangular frame 1 and an inner frame 2 screwed together at the ends. A disc 7 is secured to one end of the frame and is mounted on the tubular spindle 9. A disc 6 is secured to the other end and to a gear 13 loose on a shaft 14, which also carries a fixed gear 15. The main shaft 31 drives from a gear 29 a counter shaft 25 carrying a gear 24 and through this a second countershaft 18 carrying gears 21, 22 meshing with the gears 15, 13. The bearings of the countershaft 25 are adjustable to allow an idle gear to be interposed between the gears 24, 23 to reverse the direction of rotation. The gear 29 is mounted on a squared portion of the shaft 31, which is connected by a clutch 33 to a continuously driven shaft 34 and is capable of longitudinal movement in its bearings. The shaft 14 carries, inside the frame, a bevel wheel 35 meshing with a bevel wheel 36 on a shaft 37 mounted in bearings carried by the disc 6. A worm on the shaft 37 drives a shaft 40, and, through gearing 45, 46, 47, the drum 50. The bobbin 51 is carried by a cradle 53 and can slide in the frame. Springs 55 press the bobbin against the drum and are coiled around arms 57 secured to the frame. The frame is enclosed in a two-part cylindrical cover 59, 60, one part of which can be slid over the other. When the bobbin is full it presses against sliding spring bolts 67, 68 mounted in rings 65, 66 and moves the ring 66 into contact with a spring trigger 70 mounted in a framework 69 carried bv the base plate of the device. A slot 73 in the trigger 70, when the trigger is moved, allows a spring part 74 to move and bring a screw-headed portion into engagement with a screw on the shaft 31, and thus moves it longitudinally and opens the clutch 33, stopping the device. The loving passes to the device through a guide at the end of a counterweighted rocking arm mounted on an arm on the framework 69. When the roving breaks, the counterweight falls in a slide secured to a sliding bolt 83 in the framework 69 and is engaged by an eccentric 87 on the shaft 31, whereby the bolt is forced to one side and, by a sloping portion 85, moves the trigger 70 and stops the shaft 31 as described above.
