Improvements in Machines for Winding Yarn or Thread.
I, JOHN WILSON, of 5, Derby Street, Werneth, Oldham, in the County of
Lancaster, Mechanic, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement :-
This invention relates to improvements in machines for winding yarn or thread
from hanks into pirns or from cops or hobbins onto spools as the case may be and
has for its object to provide selfacting means which will renove snarls, knots or the
like irregularities in the yarn or thread on being wound and thus improve its
quality.
And in order that my invention may be more fully understood I have caused to be
appended hereunto one sheet of drawings marked with letters of reference indicating
like parts in the various figures.
Fig. 1 is a front view and Fig. 2 an end view of my invention.
In carrying out my invention the improvements consist in applying to the
movable or other rail, or convenient positioned part a of the winding machine as
the case may be, for each thread 7, a detector, consisting of two jaws c & d, the jaw c
being stationary and the jaw d movable and fitted to a plate e or to the movable
or other rail or convenient positioned part a of the winding machine itself.
The jaw d is made movable on a fulcrum or stud f and the lower end of the
jaw d heavier than the upper end so as to cause the latter to always press slightly
against the yarn or thread 6 and the stationary jaw a. The upper end of the jaw d
I furnish or form with a finger or cross piece 9 which prevents the yarn or thread b
leaving the jaws c & d.
It will thus be seen that any snarls, knots or other irregularities in the yarn or
thread & arriving at the jaws c & d are stopped through the stripping action of the
latter and are taken out of the yarn or thread b.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim, is-
"In machines for winding yarn or thread."
1st. The application of a detector, consisting of a stationary and a movable
jaw c&d respectively, between which the yarn or thread b is passed, adapted to
nip and strip the yarn or thread 6 of snarls, knots, or any other irregularities,
substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2nd. The jaw d, specified in the preceding claim, formed or furnished with a finger
or cross piece g, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

Improvements in Door Fastenings.
WILLIAM BAINBRIDGE BROOKER, Clerk 18 Kings Road Bootle do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
It consists of a stop placed to prevent the raising of a door latch when it is
engaged in the catch, and thereby making the latch act the part of a bolt.
For this purpose a button may be used, attached to either the door post or the
door, immediately over the latch, in such a situation that when its position (the
buttons) is perpendicular or thereabouts, it thereby prevents the raising of
the latch.
When not in use the button is turned on its axis out of the perpendicular
position.
A peg and a hole for the same immediately over the latch, on either the door
post or the door, will answer the same purpose, the peg to be attached to the door
post by means of a small chain.

declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
Consisting of a stopper placed to prevent the raising of a door latch when it is
engaged in the catch, and thereby making the latch act the part of a bolt.
For this purpose an oblong button may be used, attached to either the door post
or the door, immediately over the latch, in such a situation that when the position
of the button is perpendicular, or thereabouts, it prevents the raising of the latch.
To release the latch the button is turned, on its axis, out of the perpendicular
position sec number one on the accompanying drawing.

post or the door, will answer the same purpose, see number two on the drawing.
The peg may hang by means of a small chain attached to the door post, when
not in use.
For the purpose of applying the principle to my patent latch (Patent
Number 10047 26 May 1892) I may prefer to use a hook attached to the door post,
in such a position that the point of the hook may be passed over the bow of the
latch, to hold it down-see number three on the drawing.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is,
The application of a stopper to door latches, substantially as described.

An Improved Knitted Fabric Adapted for Underwear.
I, WILLIAM EDWIN HEYS of 70 Market Street Manchester in the County of
Lancaster, Patent Agent, do hereby declare the nature of this invention, and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascer-
tained in and by the following statement :-
This invention relates to a new or improved composite fabric which combines the
advantages of linen with those of wool in a practical manner without the disad-
vantages and drawbacks which attend the use of the materials separately. The
composite fabric has the same absorbent property and porousness as wool, whilst it
is much more durable; it is also more elastic and does not irritate or inflame the
skin of the wearer.
The new fabric is manufactured according to this invention by knitting the fabric
with linen and woollen yarn or thread, the wool being left on the face, and the linen
threads forming the backing. This may be accomplished on a circular stockinette
machine by means analogous with those at present in use. The composite fabric is
more particularly useful for underwear.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what 1
claim is :-
As a new article of manufacture, a composite textile fabric having a wool face
and a linen backing knitted together, substantially as set forth.

Improvements in and connected with Greenhouses and other
Horticultural Buildings.
I, THOMAS FLETCHER, of Grappenhall House, Grappenhall in the County of
Chester, Manufacturer of Gas Apparatus, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention relates to horticultural buildings and plant houses, and its object
is to prevent the dripping from the wood-work of the roof, of the water of con-
densation. This dripping is very destructive, especially in orchid houses and in
stoves where high temperatures are used, and a moist atmosphere is necessary.
At present the sloping bars are painted, and beads of condensed water gradually
accumulate, increase in size without running down the bar, until they drop from the
under side.
To prevent this, according to the present invention, I attach to the under-sides
of the bars where the drops of water at present accumulate, strips of unpainted
wood, indiarubber and rubber compounds, canvas, Willesden paper, or other
vegetable tissue cord or fabric preferably treated with cupro-ammonium as in the
Willesden process, or any other suitable material which is not greasy, painted, or
water repellent.
In the majority of cases it will be found best to employ simply a strip of natural
wood, tacked lightly on the under side of each bar spar or beam, since this material
is cheap, easily removed, and readily and quickly replaced. A wood such as
ordinary elm which does not soon rot or decay under the conditions to which it may
be exposed, may advantageously be used.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
In horticultural buildings, strips of natural wood or other suitable material
which is not painted with oil colour greasy or water repellent, upon the under
side of the bars spars or beams, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore
described.

48° Beaumé, the result, according to the theory of combustion, is an explosive of
the formulæ :
2CH,(NO,) + 8 NHO, = 12 CO,+8 H,O + 12 N.
If from 10 to 40 per cent. of nitro cellulose, or of kieselguhr are added to such
an explosive, the result is, according to the percentage of absorbent employed,
a more or less gelatinous explosive which can be put in cases in the ordinary
way.
For the use and application of the above described explosives, a special soft
metal case or cartridge has been patented.

ARNOLD KRAMER Civil Engineer 35, New Broad Street London E.C. do
hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
When nitric acid hydrate of 1.50 specific weight, 48° Beaumé, is mixed with
nitro benzol, the result according to the theory of combustion, is an explosive of
the formulæ :
C,H,NO, +5NHO, = 6 CO, + 5H,O + 6N.
The same nitric acid hydrate mixed with binitro benzol forms an explosive of the
formulæ :
2 CH (NO) + 8 NHO3 = 12 CO₂ + 8 H₂O + 12 N.
The explosives are liquid, but mixed with 10-40% nitrified cellulose or
kieselguhr more or less gelatinous.
Hitherto the general use and convenient storage of liquid explosives has been
rendered impracticable, owing to the want of a proper hermetically closed case,
which should at the same time permit of the insertion of the detonator into the
centre of the cartridge.
The cases employed in the present invention are made in one piece from soft
metal, (such as lead, tin, aluminium, brass, etc.) and has at the closed bottom a
small tube of the proper dimension for receiving the detonator, this tube being drawn
inside from the material of the bottom by suitable machinery.

page_text: The said cases, after being filled with the explosive, are then closed by the
application of a moderate pressure all round at the open end or neck giving this at
first a conoidic form and thus closing the opening. The conic tenon formed by
the metal side pressed together is then pushed back into a permanent hermetical
stopper.
By this method of sealing the occurence of minute flaws in the metal of the
cartridge case, by which the gases of the explosive might communicate with the
outer air, is made impossible, and thus the liquid explosive can be kept for a long
time before being used, without any alteration in its chemical composition.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:
The novelty of the above described method of using liquid explosives in hermeti-
cally closed cartridge cases, of soft metal, by which method liquid explosives can be
kept unaltered for a long time after being made.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Spring Device for the Splinter Bar of Vehicles.
I, HERMANN WUNDERLICH of Werderstrasse 2 Dresden in the Empire of
Germany, Artilleryman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention relates to spring devices which are inserted in a suitable way
between the main load of a vehicle and the beasts drawing the same, with the object
of lessening the strain upon the starting of the vehicle, and it consists in an improved
arrangement of such a spring or combination of the same with other parts which
will not only effect the purpose intended but in the case of two-horse vehicles will
cause the draught of both animals at the commencement to have equally a forward
pull on the vehicle and so avoid the lateral pull experienced when the two animals
do not start evenly or pull equally.
The accompanying drawing illustrates this invention applied to the splinter bar
of a vehicle such as a wagon.
is the splinter bar. The spring a is arranged to act by tension and is placed
parallel with the splinter bar d. The ends of the spring a, which is otherwise free,
are attached at bb to the ends respectively of two levers c c pivoted in the ends of
the splinter bar, and having their outer ends projecting forward and terminating in
hooks e e to which the traces are attached if one horse alone is used to draw the
vehicle or to which the trees are attached respectively if two horses are used.
-
The tension of the spring a holds the levers c c so that their outer ends are
diverged as shown in the drawing, a pull on these levers in a direction perpendicular
to the splinter bar will thus tend to extend the spring, and if one lever is pulled
more than the other, the pull will be transferred through the spring to draw back
the other lever until the pull is equalized.
To prevent the spring a being drawn too far two bars ff may be connected to the
ends of the levers ce at these bars being connected one to the other by forming
elongated links at their inner ends which engage one in the other.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is;-
1.) In a vehicle the combination with the splinter bar d of two levers ce pivoted
in the ends of said bar respectively, hooks e at the forward ends of said levers and
a spring a connecting the rear ends of said levers each to each said spring lying
parallel with the splinter bar.
2.) In a vehicle the combination of the splinter, bar d, the two levers cc pivoted
respectively in the ends of said bar the spring a connecting the rear ends of said
levers and two bars ff connected respectively to said levers and engaging the one
with the other by means of elongated links at their ends for the purpose set forth.

An Improvement applied to Triple Bolt Drop-down Guns.
I PASQUALE VARRIALE of 17 Via Municipio, Naples in the Kingdom of Italy,
Gunmaker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement :-
This invention relates to an improvement applied to "Greener's "triple bolt
drop-down guns and it consists in the application thereto of a fourth fastening or
closure.
The accompanying drawing represents a triple bolt "Greener" gun to which the
fourth fastening is applied.
Figure 1 is a plan view;
Figure 2 a horizontal section at A. B Figure 3;
Figure 3 a vertical longitudinal section at C D Figures 1 and 2, and
Figure 4 rear end view of the barrels.
The top plate or rib d of the barrels is extended backward and terminates by a
suitable boss or enlargement e which sets into a corresponding cavity of the breech
block when the gun is closed. This enlargement e as will be seen Figures 3 and 4
extends the entire height of the extension d' of the plate d and at the level of the
lever b, which works the bolts c, it is provided with a notch o into which enters the
lever b (enlarged for this purpose) when the barrel is closed; it is this arrangement
which constitutes the fourth fastening. When the key a is worked to open the
gun, the lever b comes out of the notch of the enlargement e at the same time that
the bolt c comes out of the extension d' of the rib d of the barrels; the barrels may
then drop down.
Upon the drawing the enlargement e has the form of a truncated half cone, it
may however be of any other shape.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what 1
claim is :-
:-
The application to "Greener's" triple bolt drop-down guns of a fourth fastening
obtained by the extension backward of the top plate or rib d of the barrels, such
extension being provided at its end with an enlargement e having a notch o into
which takes the lever b that works the bolt c.

Improvements in and connected with Machines for Bashing,
Notching, and Stamping Bread.
I, JONAH JOEL HOUSE of 155 Muntz Street Birmingham, in the County of
Warwick, Baker do hereby declare the nature of my said invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in
and by the following statement:—
My invention has for its object improvements in and connected with machines
for bashing notching and stamping bread by which means the bread is stamped with
the name of the baker or other letters by the same operation which effects the
bashing and notching.
In order that my invention may be clearly understood and more easily carried
into practice I have appended hereunto a double sized sheet of drawings upon
which I have fully illustrated the nature of my said improvements applied to a
machine similar to that described in my Patent No. 20,248 November 21st 1891,
and from which its application in the case of similar machines which may vary in
detail will be readily understood.
Figure 1., is a part view of the bed A rod D and bearing a¹ of such a machine
shewing my stamping attachment F in sectional elevation.
Figure 2., is a plan of the stamping attachment when disconnected from the
machine.
Figure 3., is a view, looking up, of the basher B and stamping arrangement F
attached to the machine.
Figure 4., is a sectional plan of the table shewing the loaf being pressed through
the table by the basher with stamp not shewn.
In carrying my invention into effect above the basher B I provide the stamping
arrangement F which may consist of the central ring having the arms f upon each
of which are the letters f which may of course be of any combination, size, or
shape and these letters are so arranged that as the basher B is brought down in
the manner described in my before mentioned Specification the impression of the
letters is made upon the top of the loaf L at the same operation as shewn at
Figure 4. Of course I may form two letters on one arm or even more so long as
clearance is left to pass the knives e' in the ring e* as the loaf is forced through the
notchers.
I may vary the mode of attachment of the stamping arrangement to the rod D
and interchangeable bashers B may be provided so as to change in the case of
quartern and half quartern loaves and thus bring the stamp into the required
relative position with regard to the loaf.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is,
The improvements in and connected with machines for bashing notching &
stamping bread consisting of the stamping arrangement such as F for stamping the
bread at the same time it is being bashed and notched substantially as herein set
forth and shewn upon the accompanying drawing.
