Patent GB-191310018-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in Substitution Resistances for Electric Lamps.
Inventor: HEINS WILHELM
IPC: H05B39/10
Filed: 1913-04-29
Granted: 1913-12-24
Abstract: 10,018. Heins, W. Nov. 25, 1912, [Convention date]. [Addition to 9530/13.] Cut - out arrangements; holders. - A resistance of carborundum in the form of a disk or lens is placed in shunt with each of a number of lamps or groups burning in series, as described in the parent Specification, but a reserve lamp is now placed in a second shunt which is closed by a thermal switch heated by the carborundum on failure of the main lamp. Should the reserve lamp fail in turn, the carborundum takes the whole current. In the construction shown, having a cap p at one end for insertion into a lamp-holder, and a reserve lamp l at the other end, a lenticular piece e of carborundum is compressed between plates f by springs. The thermal switch consists of a spring strip n, normally prevented from making contact with the reserve lamp at m by a detent, such as a star-wheel o, the spindle of which passes through a mass of fusible metal, but released when the metal is heated by the carborundum. The reserve lamp then takes most of the current, and the metal solidifies, so that the switch can be re-set after the main lamp has been replaced by another.

Abstract: 12,808. Akt.-Ges. f³r Selas-Releuchtung. June 12, 1912, [Convention date]. Spray burners.-The angle between the longitudinal axis of a liquid-fuel burner and the stream line of the air or other spraying pressure-medium traversing it is made capable of variation so as to alter the character of the flame, without the use of helical guide-passages for the medium. In the construction shown, the air &c. is introduced by a perforated rotatable tube f, having a deflecting-tongue l, into the space k, and passes with fuel from the tube b through the nozzle d. The tongue l may be flexible and operated from the exterior of the burner. The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91(3) (a) states also that the speciallyformed pressure-medium supply tube may be replaced by a rotatable fuel-supply tube provided with a flap, spring, wing, or cam-shaped projection. Also, the burner may be steamjacketed, and steam may be used as the spraying-medium; when compressed air is used, it may be passed through a pre-heating tube in the furnace or furnace structure.

Abstract: 16,860. Siemens-Schuckertwerke. July 15, 1913, [Convention date]. Protective arrangements.-Relates to the protection of electric circuits by means of seriesconnected time-limit overload circuit-breakers which operate in succession, the time-lag of each circuit-breaker being a function of the currentstrength. According to the invention, the timelag of each circuit-breaker is calibrated from its lower limiting value, and this value is set in accordance with the position of the circuitbreaker in the system, being progressively greater towards the main bus-bars. The timelimit current-strength curves for two circuitbreakers 1, 2 are shown in Fig. 5, the circuitbreaker 2 which is nearer the main bus-bars having a time-lag the lower limiting value f<2> of which is greater than the corresponding value t<1> for the more remote circuit-breaker 1.

Abstract: 19,793. Gaede, W. Sept. 24, 1913, [Convention date]. Aspirating-apparatus, ejector.-A vessel to be exhausted is connected with a space closed by a diaphragm having openings of a width of the order of the mean free path of the molecules of the gas at the pressure at which the process is to begin. Past the other side of the diaphragm flows a stream of vapour. The air diffusing out is carried away by the vapour, and vapour diffusing in is condensed or absorbed. In the form of apparatus shown, the diaphragm is constituted by a steel cylinder 2 having a slot 3 about 0.1 mm. in width. Mercury is vaporized at 5 in the bottom of the apparatus by a burner 6, and the vapour, after flowing past the slot 3, flows with the entrained air to a condenser 8. Vapour diffusing through the slot 3 is condensed by a condenser 11, and the mercury returns to the part 5 of the apparatus through a seal 4. The condenser tube 10 is connected with a pump for producing the preliminary vacuum.

Title: Improvements in Signalling Apparatus for use in connection with Winding Engines at Collieries, Mines and other Places.
Inventor: BOLTON CHARLES HARPER
IPC: B66B19/06
Filed: 1915-12-31
Abstract: 18,198. Bolton. C. H. Dec. 31. Lamp signals; visible signals.-A device for indicating to the engineman whether the reversing-lever of a colliery or like winding-engine is in the right position to allow of starting the engine with safety comprises two signalling-devices each capable of showing a safety signal and a dagger signal, the safety signal of one and the danger signal of the other being towards the engineman, and the signals being simultaneously reversible. A shutter device covers the exposed signal and exposes the other just before the completion of each wind. The signals 1, 2 may be lamps, opposite sides of each being differently coloured, for example red and green, and having correspondingly coloured lenses; or boards painted or carrying coloured lamps may be used. The signals are simultaneously rotated through 180 degrees by pinions 5 and a rack 6 operated by a link connected to the reversing-lever. Shutters 10 exposing one signal at a time are carried by an arm oscillated on a pivot 8 by a weighted arm 14, which is carried over by one of two arms 17 on the pointer spindle 12 of an ordinary shaft indicator, so as to fall on one or the other of two vertically sliding rods 18, 19 connected to two arms of a three-armed lever 20. as shown, the other arm operating the shutters by links 24, 23. Assuming the exposed signal 2 to indicate safety, the engine may be started. Towards the end of the wind, the arm 14 falls on the rod 19, thus covering the signal 2 and exposing the danger signal 1. Before restarting the engine, the signals must be rotated by operating the reversing-lever, so that the signal 1 shows safety. Towards the end of the wind, the shutters are moved back by the arm 14 to the position shown, exposing the signal 2, which shows danger, until the reversing-lever is again operated. The arms 17 are adjustable on the spindle 12 and also carry adjustable stops 25.
