Title: Improvements in and relating to machines for stretching and rolling crepe paper
IPC: B65H23/26
Filed: 1933-12-12
Abstract: 414,567. Artificial flowers. NIELSEN, A. K., 116, Hunderupvej, Odense, Denmark. Dec. 12, 1933, No. 34978. [Class 63.] In making roses &c. of crepe paper, the paper is stretched along one edge and an enlargement or lip is rolled on that edge by a machine in which these two operations are effected by mechanisms driven from a common shaft. The unstretched part of the crepe paper passes between three parallel pairs of rollers 10, Fig. 1, carrying sleeves 11 of sponge rubber &c., and one edge of the paper is stretched by a single pair of rollers 8 with sleeves 9 and supported in a C-shaped support 3, all rollers being driven, e.g. by gears 15, belts 14 &c. at the same angular speed. The stretched edge then passes between two plates 20, Fig. 3, surfaced with rubber &c. which are on bent rods 23 passing through guide openings in a tube 31 and through balls within the tube 31 and pressed against adjustable wedges 32 by springs adjusted by screws 35, the plates 20 being reciprocated by cams 24, 25 so that they approach when the upper plate moves forward, and separate when it moves back, thus rolling the edge of the paper 16 into a lip or enlargement 17. The cam-shaft 26 of the cams 24, 25 is driven as illustrated, with or without speed-changing means interposed. Alternatively, the lip &c. may be formed by obliquely-arranged rollers rolling the edge of the paper around a thin spindle.

Abstract: 1434220 Electro-photographic apparatus RICOH KK 30 July 1973 [31 July 1972 (2) 3 Aug 1972 (2)] 36102/73 Heading G2H The length of electro-photographic copying material 2 supported on the peripheral surface of a drum 1 of a copying apparatus is periodically changed as the material becomes worn by driving a take-up reel 4 mounted inside the drum so that a fresh length of material is drawn from a feed reel 6 also mounted inside the drum. The drive means for the take-up reel is mounted outside the drum and preferably comprises a main drive gear 55 for rotating a shaft 3 and the drum 1 and being itself driven from a chain 70 through a gear 51, a transmission gear 57 driven by gear 55 and connected to a connection gear 61 through a solenoid operated spring clutch, a sun gear 68 arranged to be driven by the connection gear and mounted for free rotation about shaft 3 and a take-up reel advancing gear 69 meshing with the sun gear. The arrangement is such that with the spring clutch disengaged the gear 69 is not rotated by the sun gear but with the clutch engaged (by actuation of solenoid M) the clutch is engaged and the sun gear is rotated to drive the gear 69 and thus the take-up reel. The chain 70 also oscillates a pawl 78 which advances a ratchet 73 by one tooth for every rotation of the drum 1 (i.e. each cycle). After a predetermined number of copies has been made the solenoid M is energized to transmit drive to the take-up reel.  A solenoid M, is also energized to release a control member 72 for rotation with ratchet 73. This control member actuates a pawl 93 to move a ratchet 92 by one tooth when a fresh length of copy material has been driven into place. The control member then actuates a switch S, to de-energize solenoids M and M 1  and so disable the drive to the take-up reel. The movement of ratchet 92 is indicated on a dial 100 by a pointer 99 so that the number of lengths of copy material remaining on the supply reel is indicated. Every time the control member 72 is actuated the switch S 1  waves for a different position around the periphery of the control member to compensate for the effective increase in size of the take-up reel (and thus the amount of material taken up per revolutions) as the copy material is wound thereon. When the supply of copy material is exhausted a switch S 2  is actuated to activate an alarm.

Title: Method of separating materials of different specific gravities
IPC: B03B5/40
Filed: 1934-12-19
Abstract: 449,085. Washing granular materials. CHANCE, H. M., 843, Drexel Building, Philadelphia, U.S.A. Dec. 19, 1934, No. 36358. [Class 82 (ii)] Materials of different specific gravities, e.g. wood chips and gravel, coal and slate, limestone and barytes, &c., are separated by introducing them into a body of separating medium in which the lighter particles will float and the heavier materials will sink, the peripheral layers of the body of medium being maintained in circulation. The lighter particles are carried to a point of discharge by the horizontal flow at the top of the vessel and the heavier particles fall through the substantially stationary central part of the medium and through the reverse stream at the bottom of the vessel to a point of discharge. Any light particles carried down with the heavy particles are picked up by the reverse stream and carried up to join the light particles in the horizontal stream at the top of the vessel. A stream of separating medium is preferably introduced on to the horizontal stream at the top of the vessel, travelling in the same direction as and at a greater velocity than the horizontal stream to carry the light particles rapidly to the discharge. The medium may be water, e.g. for separating wood chips from gravel, a solution, or a suspension of solids, e.g. sand, in a liquid such as water. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the circulation is produced by tangentially disposed jets 4 of water or suspension and the light particles pass over a weir 16 to a dewatering screen 17. The medium drains from the screen into a sump 18 from the lower part of which it is withdrawn by a pump 20 and passed to a box 21 from which it flows on to the top of the circulating medium to assist in carrying the lighter material over to the weir. The heavier particles sink into a classifier column 5 which may be provided with a slide valve 28, Fig. 2, and are removed by means of a refuse chamber 7 controlled by valves 8, 8<1>. The materials may be fed on to the top of the medium through a hopper 13 with an adjustable gate 14, or they may be fed into the central part of the medium by a shoot 29. Instead of discharging the light materials over a weir they may be withdrawn by an elevator, preferably a bucket elevator 24, as shown in Fig. 3, with perforated buckets in which the material is subjected to jets of water from sprays 25. In the form shown in Fig. 2, the circulation is produced by one or more rotating paddle wheels 9, preferably of openwork structure, the paddles 10 being attached to spiders or discs on the shaft 11, the materials being introduced by shoots 29<1> into the paddle wheel. Water or suspension is introduced at 4 when a suspension is used as the separating medium to assist in maintaining the suspension. When a suspension is used a layer of water may be maintained on the top of the medium, as described in Specification 119,038, [Class 82 (ii)].
