Abstract: 10,828. Peake, A. C., and Crosthwaite, J. R. May 24. Elevated railways. - Relates to an overhead travelling hoist or jenny for electric or other power with or without lifting - apparatus, and consists in constructing the traveller so that it may be guided at junctions without movable points. Fig. 2 shows a pair of bogies c, c' for supporting a hoist. The travelling wheels d run on the bottom flange of the joist a, and for use in passing junctions, auxiliary wheels d' are mounted on the axle e. Fig. 1 shows the traek with the carriage passing a junction. The joists a, b are cut away to allow the frame to pass round the curve, and the portions a are thickened underneath. The auxiliary rails f, f of channel section serve to support the outer wheels d' when the inner wheels d are passing a gap. Fig. 5 shows an arrangement for guiding the carriage at a junction. A lever g controlled by the operator actuates the rollers h, h adapted to bear on the side beams f, f . When the carriage passes a junction, one or other of the rollers h is lifted, and the carriage is steered into one or other of the two directions. The invention is stated to be applicable to travelling carriages in general.

Abstract: In preparing precooked legumes, the legumes are macerated in water, cooked in a caramel solution and then dried. As described, navy beans are soaked in cold water, e.g. for 10-12 hours at room temperature, until they have swollen to maximum size separated from the water on a draining screen and cooked in distilled or softened water which has first been brought to boiling point and has had the caramel solution added thereto. The caramel solution is made by heating cane, beet or other sugar with small amounts of ammonium sulphate and hydrochloric acid in an oil bath at 180-200 DEG C. The beans are next placed in the cooking pans in fine-mesh wire containers in which they are subsequently withdrawn to baking ovens in which they are kept for 1 1/2 -2 hrs. at 175-200 DEG F. They are then dried in driers operating at about 28 in. vacuum and at 100-110 DEG F. to a moisture content of about 12-14 per cent. The beans are next screened and passed to containers for packing or to grinding apparatus for reduction to a powder for use as a base for soaps &c.

Abstract: 468,857. Piston-and-spring pressure gauges. OKILL, J., and TATE, J. R. Jan. 23, 1936, No. 2110. [Class 106 (ii)] In a pressure gauge of the type in which a piston floats between the fluid whose pressure is to be measured and an adjustable compression spring, for instance, as described in Specification 351,003, the spring is interposed between the piston and a non-rotatable, axiallyadjustable pressure block whereby adjustment can be effected without twisting the spring. A spigot member 22, Fig. 1, is adapted to be 'fitted to an indicator cock and carries a piston 46 which is subjected to the pressure to be measured. A counterbalancing spring 39 bears on the piston through the medium of a ball 43 and is held at its upper end by a block 37 which is prevented from rotation by a key 3 7 a, Fig. 4, sliding in a keyway and attached to the block 37 by screws 37c, which screws also carry a rack 65 to drive a pinion 67 and pointer 73 to indicate on a scale 69. The block 37 is raised and lowered by a screw 25 prevented from axial movement by a collar 31 running on a ball bearing and by the hub of a hand wheel 35 which also carries a scale 76 reading against a fixed pointer. The lower end of the traversing screw 25 serves as a stop for the piston 46. A spring-controlled magnifying lever 62 indicates small movements of the piston. In an alternative form, a counter geared to the hand wheel indicates the pressure. To allow for rotatably adjusting the instrument for better observation, the casing is, in a modification, connected by a flange and nut 95, Fig. 9, to a spigot 26a screwed for engagement with the indicator cock.

Abstract: 451,972. Travelling head cross-cut saws. ROBINSON & SON, Ltd., T., and ROBINSON, C. J., Railway Works, Rochdale. April 5, 1935, No. 10524. [Class 145 (ii)] The canting head of a travelling head crosscut saw machine is pivoted about an exhaust pipe mounted horizontally at one side of the machine and immediately behind the saw, the axis of the exhaust pipe if produced being substantially tangential to the bottom edge of the saw at its point of lowest cutting whereby sawdust created by the saw blade at all cutting positions is immediately passed into the exhaust pipe without any adjustment thereof. The saw 16 is mounted on the spindle 15 of the driving motor 14 carried by the slide 12 movable by the handle 13 on the base 11 ; the latter is pivotally mounted by extensions 10 on the exhaust pipe 9 which is carried by parts 8 on the member 7 mounted on top of the ram 6 which can be adjusted vertically and rotationally in the column 5. Canting is effected by a screw 18 working in a pivoted block 20 and pivoted nut 21 having a locking handle 22. Specification 435,789 is referred to.

Abstract: 351,003. Piston-and-spring pressure gauges. OKILL, J., 14, Foxcovers Road, Lower Bebington, Cheshire, and TATE, J. R., 434, Chorley Old Road, Bolton. March 15, 1930, No. 8363. [Class 106 (ii).] Relates to apparatus specially applicable for measuring the maximum pressure obtained in a cycle of pressure variation and comprises a construction adapted for high pressures and provided with a differential piston or the equivalent so that the effective pressure is that on an annular area thus enabling the employment of sufficiently strong pistons while at the same time obviating the use of a heavy balancing spring. In the form shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the cylinder block B is provided with a screwed boss for engaging a screwed hole in the cylinder of an internal-combustion engine through a base b in which the pressure fluid is conducted to a space b between two plungers A3, A the other ends of which abut against cross-bars c , c connected together by rods c passing through lugs c on the cylinder block. The cylinder block B is secured in a U-shaped frame H having an opening h through which a pin c protrudes to engage the short arm E of a spring-pulled bell-crank lever fulcrummed on the part H the long arm e forming a pointer moving over a scale h . The spring S is located in a casing K screwed into the frame H and screw-threaded to take the screw-threaded portion of a compression sleeve P having a hand-wheel p and graduated indicating thimble p . A pressure transmission rod R has fixed to it a ring r and a ring s fixed to the spring has a pin engaging a hole in the ring r . A pin s on a ring s attached to the other end of the spring engages a hole in the wheel. The spring S and rod R both rotate with the hand-wheel p . The pressure in the engine cylinder acting on the pistons A3, A is effective on an area equal to the difference between the areas of the pistons, and the connected crosspieces are moved against the influence of the spring S which is tensioned by moving the hand-wheel until balance is effected against the maximum pressure, the pointer e then giving a slight fluttering movement. The pressure may be read off on the scales k , p . A wheel t on the rod R may gear with a wheel t on the shaft of a counter T registering the pressure. In a modification the pistons A , A may engage the legs of a bow-shaped frame which engages a washer acted upon by the spring. In another form, a piston is formed with two different diameters engaging corresponding bores, the pressure fluid being admitted to act on the annulus between the diameters. In a third form, the piston is tubular and the pressure acts on the annular end. The Provisional Specification also states that the device may be combined with the apparatus described in Specification 319,253, [Class 106 (ii), Dynamometers &c.], for measuring pressures below as well as above atmospheric pressure and with the apparatus therein described for indicating, and for cooling and lubricating the pistons.

Abstract: 349,765. Bowden mechanism. ROBINSON, F. J., 11, Warwick Row, Coventry. May 21, 1930, Nos. 15612 and 32614. [Class 80 (iii).] In a twist-grip control for cycle &c. handle-bars, the flexible transmission member passes through a guide on the handle-bar and is secured to the interior of the rotatable sleeve or grip, so that when the grip is actuated, the transmission member is wound in a single helix about the handle-bar, and thus drawn through the guide. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the rotatable sleeve or grip 2 is spaced around the handle-bar 3 and secured to a control cable 4 passing through a guide or eye 5 on a collar 14 supporting the inner end of the sleeve at 15, so that when the grip 2 is rotated in either direction, the cable 4 is wound helically around the handlebar 3 as shown. The outer end of the grip 2 is inwardly flanged at 6 and retained by a flanged split sleeve 8 adapted to be sprung &c. within the open end of the handle-bar. The cable 4 is attached to the grip 2 by means of a tubular nipple 9 fitting within a ferrule 10, which engages a recess in the grip and is longitudinally slotted at 11 to facilitate detachment of the cable. The guide 5 consists of an apertured peg, which may retain the collar 14 on the handle-bar and may form an abutment for the casing 16 of a Bowden transmission. In order to reduce friction, the cable 4 may be wound on a loose tube 50, instead of directly on the handle-bar. In another form, Fig. 2, the grip 17 has a longitudinal bore 18 to receive a longitudinally-slotted screwed ferrule 22 for the nipple 9 of the cable 4, the end portion of which is thus held away from the handle-bar to reduce friction, a helically-disposed guide 20 leading the cable around the handle-bar during winding. Two divergent guides 20 may allow operation of the grip in either direction. The ferrule 22 may be turned, for adjustment and removal, by means of a key engaging its longitudinal slot. The guide peg 28 may pivot in a hole 29 in the handle-bar. In a further modification, the longitudinal bore 18 and guides 20 are formed on the exterior of a rotatable liner, which is secured inside the grip and is provided with an extension of reduced diameter, on which the cable is wound. The rotatable grip may actuate two cables arranged diametrically opposite to one another.
