No. 14279.—27th November, 1901.—JAMES PALMER CAMPBELL, of Wellington, New Zealand, Registered Patent Agent (nominee of Benjamin Garver Lamme, of 230, Stratford Avenue, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, United States of America, Electrical Engineer). Improvements in windings for electrical machines.

Claim.—A bar winding for electrical machines, the bars of which are arranged close together in groups in the core-slots in such a manner that there is a minimum difference of potential between the bars of the same group, the ends of the bars being spread apart so that the end connectors may be attached for completing the winding, substantially as described.

No. 14280.—27th November, 1901.—HENRY LANE WALLACE, of 1335, North Pennsylvania Street, Indianapolis, Indiana, United States of America, Capitalist (assignee of Joseph Wilson Nethery, of 65, Blancharne Building, Indianapolis aforesaid, Building Superintendent). Valves.

Claims.—(1.) In a valve-body containing a single large cylindrical chamber having a main-valve seat at one end and small-valve seat at the other end, a main-valve-and-piston structure presenting differential areas to the fluid and with the valve and piston arranged on different sides of the fluid-inlet, a by-pass leading from the small-valve seat around beneath the main-valve seat, and a starting-valve at said small-valve seat which is closed by the valve-and-piston structure as it rises. (2.) In connection with the subject-matter of claim 1, making the lower end of the cylindrical chamber convergent towards the main-valve seat. (3.) In connection with the subject-matter of the foregoing claims, providing the convergent end of the chamber with wings extending above the main-valve seat to guide the main valve in its movement. (4.) In connection with the subject-matter of the first claim, constructing the piston to permit the passage of fluid from one side to the other in the cylindrical chamber, and of larger area than the pressure-surface of the main valve. (5.) In connection with the subject-matter of the first claim, providing the valve-and-piston structure with a strike for closing the starting-valve.
(Specification, 3s. 9d.; drawings, 1s.)

No. 14281.—27th November, 1901.—HENRY LANE WALLACE, of 1335, North Pennsylvania Street, Indianapolis, Indiana, United States of America, Capitalist (assignee of Joseph Wilson Nethery, of 65, Blancharne Building, Indianapolis aforesaid, Building Superintendent). Valves.

Claims.—(1.) In an automatically acting valve having a main valve and an actuating piston-head, a small auxiliary starting-valve sliding loosely in a small chamber within the main-valve-and-piston-head structure, which chamber is connected by a by-pass with the water-supply so that by manipulation of the starting-valve from the outside the main valve may be opened to any desired point and then caused to remain to provide for any desired flow. (2.) A valve-body containing two chambers divided by a diaphragm constituting the main valve-seat, the main valve being in the lower chamber and having a valve-stem extending to a piston-head in the upper chamber, which head has a small chamber therein connecting by a longitudinal passage through said valve-stem and main valve with the lower chamber and by a second passage with the upper chamber above the piston-head, which second passage is normally closed by an auxiliary valve having a stem extending up through the head of the upper chamber and terminating in a push button. (3.) In connection with the subject-matter of the last foregoing claim, forming the main-valve stem of a gradually increasing size as it approaches the main valve. (4.) In connection with the subject-matter of the two foregoing claims, providing the main-valve stem with guiding wings extending along the enlarged part. (5.) In connection with the subject-matter of the second claim, providing the piston-head with the small perforations p.

No. 14282.—27th November, 1901.—HENRY LANE WALLACE, of 1335, North Pennsylvania Street, Indianapolis, Indiana, United States of America, Capitalist (assignee of Joseph William Nethery, of 65, Blancharne Building, Indianapolis aforesaid, Building Superintendent). Valves.

Claims.—(1.) A faucet having a valve-seat around the inlet and below the nozzle, a chamber above the nozzle connected with the nozzle by a by-pass, a main valve resting on the valve-seat and extending above the nozzle to close the lower end of the chamber and having a perforation extending through it, and a by-pass or starting-valve above this main valve and closed by the latter in its movement to open the inlet. (2.) In connection with the subject-matter of claim 1, making the aperture through the main valve of smaller size than the by-pass from the chamber to the nozzle and providing the main valve with a tapered extension extending through the main-valve seat to gradually increase or decrease the opening as said valve rises or falls.
(Specification, 4s.; drawings, 1s.)

No. 14283.—27th November, 1901.—WILLIAM ERNEST HUGHES, of Queen’s Chambers, Wellington, New Zealand, Patent Agent (nominee of Benjamin Garver Lamme, of 230, Stratford Avenue, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, United States of America, Electrical Engineer). Improvements in windings for electrical machines.

Claims.—(1.) A winding for electrical machines having closed or partially closed core-slots, comprising a plurality of coils each of which has one end bent at an angle to its sides before insertion into the slots, the other end being approximately straight and connected after insertion into the slots, so as to form a continuous winding, substantially as described. (2.) For an electrical machine having partially closed slots, a two-phase winding comprising a plurality of coils, those for one phase being inserted into the slots from one end of the core and those for the other phase being inserted into the slots from the other end of the core, substantially as described. (3.) A winding for electrical machines, constructed and arranged substantially as described with reference to any of the forms shown in the drawings.
(Specification, 6s. 6d.; drawings, 1s.)

No. 14292.—27th November, 1901.—EDMUND TAYLOR, of Queen’s Bridge Street, Melbourne, Victoria, Refrigerating Engineer. Improvements in refrigerating-apparatus.

Claims.—(1.) In refrigerating-apparatus, a boiler, condenser, and absorber in combination with a storage cylinder communicating with the absorber and with the lower part of the boiler, substantially as and for the purposes described and explained, and as illustrated in the drawings. (2.) In refrigerating-apparatus, a boiler, condenser, and absorber in combination with a storage cylinder communicating with the absorber, as well as, through the medium of a cooling-coil (as m), with the lower part of the boiler, substantially as and for the purposes described and explained, and as illustrated in the drawings. (3.) In refrigerating-apparatus, a boiler and absorber connected together by a valved pipe connecting the lower part of the absorber with the upper part of the boiler, in combination with a valved pipe leading from the lower part of the condenser to the upper part of the absorber, substantially as and for the purposes described and explained, and as illustrated in the drawings. (4.) In refrigerating-apparatus, a boiler and absorber in communication with each other combined with a pipe fitted with a valve (as q) leading from the lower part of the condenser to the upper part of the absorber, substantially as and for the purposes described and explained, and as illustrated in the drawings.
