Title: Method of shaving conical involute gears
IPC: B23F19/06
Filed: 1956-12-06
Abstract: 801,289. Gear-finishing; milling-cutters. NATIONAL BROACH & MACHINE CO. Dec. 6, 1956 [Jan. 30, 1955], No. 37317/56. Class 83 (3). A method of shaving a conical involute gear G consists in meshing it with a conical involute cutter C, the wide ends of the cutter teeth being adjacent the narrow ends of the gear teeth and the axes being parallel to a reference plane and crossed at 3 to 30 degrees, and effecting a relative traverse in a direction parallel to the plane, and perpendicular to the gear axis. The gear may be cut initially by a hob traversed in an inclined path, or by a relative radial in-feed during traverse. The blank may be cylindrical and the finished gear have teeth of decreasing depth, or may be conical and have teeth of constant depth. In each case, pairs of such gears will mesh correctly when engaged either way round; if big ends mesh, there will be point contact only between the teeth, but, if each big end meshes with a small end, line contact ensues. If a conical involute gear is shaved by a cylindrical cutter, a hollow lead modification is produced. By shaving a gear G with a helicallytoothed conical involute cutter C, correct teeth are produced. The cutter may be hobbed on the same fixture as the gear and have the same cone angle-say 7¢ degrees. The cutter teeth have serrations perpendicular to the cutter axis and extending helically round the cutter, and the root clearance grooves 33 are conical. A pressure angle of 22¢ degrees is used. The gear or cutter is rotated to give a surface speed of 250 ft./mm. and traversed from a position of loose mesh, through the position of minimum centre distance, to a second position of loose mesh, in a direction at right angles to the gear axis; the gear may then be fed to put on cut before the directions of traverse and rotation are reversed, and the gear and cutter returned to their initial position. Initially, the gear may be fed into tight mesh with the cutter and then traversed to its initial cutting position, and the gear then elevated to put on cut prior to the relative rotation and traverse. The teeth of the gear may be modified by providing an opposite modification on the cutter teeth. A further modification results if the angle of traverse is slightly offset from the perpendicular, because the gear is then moved into tighter mesh with the cutter due to the taper of the teeth, thus resulting in the teeth of the gear being more heavily machined at the ends which are in engagement at the end of the traverse. By decreasing the cone angle of the cutter, an increasing amount of hollow lead may be produced, the cutter and gear then being meshed with their axes slightly inclined at an angle equal to the difference in the cone angles. Regrinding of the cutter reduces the operating pressure angle and increases the operating cone angle. Specifications 635,020 and 672,022 are referred to.

Title: An improved lubricator for internal combustion engines
IPC: F01M5/00
Filed: 1938-12-29
Abstract: 523,234. Lubricating. ARMITAGE, J. A. Dec. 29, 1938, No. 37735. Convention date, Jan. 8, 1938. [Class 12 (iii)] A lubricator for internal combustion engines has a main oil chamber 6 which supplies a feed chamber 12 with a predetermined amount of oil at a predetermined rate through perforations 16a in a tube 16 and a restricted passage 14a. An air pipe 17 has its lower end 17a near the top of the chamber 12, and a U-tube 18 has one end 18a in the upper part of the chamber 12 and its other end is connected at 23 to a pipe leading to the induction pipe of the engine. The upper end of the tube 16 opens to the chamber 6 and the U-tube 18 opens to the chamber 6 through a pipe 20, chamber 21 and duct 21a. When the engine is stationary and cold the level of the oil in the chamber 12 coincides with the end 17a of pipe 17. Upon starting the engine the lubricant in the chamber 12 above the lower end 18a of the tube 18 is drawn into the tube 18 and passed to the engine cylinder. The remainder is drawn through the duct 14a back again to the chamber 6. Thereafter air passes through the duct 14a to clear it of foreign matter and thence into the chamber 6 and through the tube 18 to the engine. When the engine stops the chamber 12 'is slowly replenished. In a modification the chamber 12 is located within the chamber 6 and is supplied from a secondary reservoir also within and supplied from the chamber 6. In another modification a further intermediate chamber is located in the chamber 6. In these modifications a longer time elapses between the stopping and restarting of the engine before a predetermined charge of oil is supplied to the engine.

Heating liquids.-Liquids are, heated by circulation through a closed circuit under constant pressure being propelled as by a pump 18, the rate being predetermined to equal the average rate of withdrawal of the heated liquid, a heater 20 being provided and a storage body of liquid 10 being situated between the point of supply 11 and the point of withdrawal 25. The storage body is of sufficient size to compensate for temporary differences between the rate of withdrawal and the rate of heating. In the example the supply main itself is continued through the storage tank 10 to the pump 18, and the withdrawal pipe 25 similarly is connected to the heater 20, those parts 12; 22 of the connections which lie within the tank being perforated with graduated holes larger near the entry to the tank than near the exit. Means are provided for cutting off the supply of liquid from supply to heater when so much heated liquid has collected in the tank as to extend nearly to the bottom. In the Figure a bimetallic or like strip 40 is in the lower part of the tank and operates by a. rod 41 a slide valve 42 when the temperature reaches a predetermined point, to move a port in the valve out of communication with the ends of the pipe 48 and a drip pipe 57 and connects the pipe 48 with another pipe 45 joined to the supply main 11. Pressure is thereupon exerted on a diaphragm in a casing 55 to operate a valve for shutting off steam or other heating medium to the heater and to break the circuit to a motor driving the pump. A further storage tank 75 for hot water may be provided. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 184,198.

[Also in Group XXXIX]  In a cross-bar switch having so-called " reed contacts " of magnetic material operable by flux flowing therethrough, the two reeds forming a contact set are magnetically connected respectively to horizontal yokes N10 . . . N19 and vertical yokes N1 . . . N9, each yoke (such as N10) having an individual pair of coils (such as B10, B11, Fig. 3) and each group of yokes is provided with holding coils 11, 12 and 13, 14 respectively which surround the corresponding individual coils. The holding coils are permanently energized to produce a flux insufficient to operate any of the contacts, but capable of holding contacts once they are operated. Operation of a pair of contacts is effected by reinforcing the holding flux with a further flux by energizing the corresponding individual horizontal and vertical coils. This further flux is insufficient to operate the reed contacts by itself. Release is effected by energizing these coils in the reverse direction. Electrical connections may be established through the yokes, which may be insulated from the main magnetic frame 1 by means of ferrite bushings (not shown); or ferrite bushings may be provided in the yokes at the points where they are joined by the reeds, individual electrical connections being made to the reeds. The individual reed contacts may be enclosed in a casing filled with inert gas.
