Title: Improvements in or relating to internal combustion engines
IPC: F02M25/00
Filed: 1932-03-14
Abstract: 398,259. Lubricating. FRY, C. L., Herbert Hill, Dundrum, Co. Dublin. March 14, 1932, No. 7547. [Class 12 (iii).] A mixture of superheated steam and lubricating-oil is supplied to the combustible mixture before it enters the engine cylinders. In the construction shown in the figure, water is drawn by suction from a reservoir 5 through a pipe 6 and past a non-return valve 15 into a pump chamber 11, and is forced through a pipe 8, past a regulating-screw 17, a sight feed 18, and a pipe 19 into a chamber 20 provided on the exhaust pipe 2. The generated steam passes through an orifice 21 and is superheated in a chamber 22 before it issues through a lagged pipe 23 and a nozzle 24 into the induction pipe 3. Heat-radiating fins 42, 43 and baffles 43<1> are provided in the chamber 22 and in the exhaust manifold 2. When the engine throttle valve is suddenly opened, the suction in the manifold 3 is transmitted through a pipe 14 to depress an elastic diaphragm 10, which, in returning to its original position, forces water out of the pump into the chamber 20. A reservoir 29 feeds oil to a vaporizing-device 28 when the level of the oil in a compartment 30 falls below the lower end of a pipe 34, the device 28 consisting of two compartments 30, 31 which communicate through a passage 32. Air admitted by a pipe 37 is bubbled through lubricating-oil in the compartment 31 and through a saturated pad 38, the oil-laden air traversing a passage 40 containing a regulating- valve 41, a sight feed 40<1>, and a delivery pipe 27 which leads to the induction pipe. In a modified construction, water is fed to a saddleshaped member around the exhaust pipe, and the steam generated is superheated in a coil which is heated by the exhaust gases.

Abstract: 345,801. Changing signs. MESSERER, L., 62, Baumweg, Frankforton-Main, Germany. March 11, 1930, No. 7963. Convention date, March 11, 1929. [Class 3 (i).] Optical-projection apparatus.-An optical-projection apparatus in which different displays can be built up by manual switch control comprises a distributer 6 which moves over a network base 29 of cells, some of which act as magazines 20 for display elements 70 and others as the display positions of the elements. The distributer runs on four rollers 25 .. 28, two of which are provided with driving wheels 34, 36, whereby the distributer can be moved to any position on the base 29 by first advancing it in one direction, and then in a direction at right-angles thereto. A motor 30 is geared to a crown wheel 32 which drives the wheels 34, 36 through clutches 33, 35. Electromagnets 41, 42 control a clutch 31 whereby the direction of rotation of the wheel 32 is determined, and magnets 43, 44 control simultaneously the clutches 33, 35, thus at will making the roller 25 or the roller 28 the driver in either direction. The elements 70 are gripped for conveyance by claws 67, 68 carried by arms depending from a platform 40 reciprocated vertically by a screw 38 rotated by a belt 39 driven from the wheel 32. The screw 38 is started and stopped by a clutch 37 controlled by a magnet 45. The claws are normally held towards each other by a spring 72, and are opened out to grip an element 70 by the pressure thereon of curved handles 69 on the element. The claws are opened out, when carrying an element 70, by a rocking stop 78, thus releasing the element. The opening out of the claws in each case actuates a switch roller 64 by a pawl and ratchet 75 and reverses the direction of motion of the platform 40. In rising after depositing or gripping an element a pointer 82 on the platform 40 comes opposite a lamp 19 on the distributer, and casts a shadow on the viewing screen 5, Fig. 2, to indicate the position of the claws 67, 68, and at the same time an abutment 79 moves forward the ratchet wheel 75 to rotate the switch 64 which is placed in position for energizing automatically the magnet 41 when the platform 40 is next to be moved, and ensuring that it shall move downwardly. A switch 66 is broken when the platform reaches the top, and stops the motor 30. A brake 52 is raised and lowered before and after each movement of the distributer by an electromagnet 51. The elements 70 in the display position are illuminated by lamps 11 and their shadows cast by a mirror 12, 13 on to the screen 5. The screen 5 is marked so that the position of the distributer 6 can be seen by the reflection thereon of the lamp 19 by a mirror 14.
