(3.) The further amplification of the invention covered by
Claims 1 and 2, which consists in providing the pulley which
turns loosely upon the shaft with a thickened rim, so that
sufficient energy will be stored up in the wheel before it is
coupled to the shaft. (4.) The improvement in stop devices
for refrigerating-apparatus, which comprises a connection
between the pump, moving devices, and the expansion-valve,
with means for controlling the expansion-valve, and independent means controlled by the pump for closing the expansion-valve. (5.) The amplification of the invention covered
by Claim 4, which consists in connecting the pump with a
centrifugal device, which comprises spring-supported weights
and a sleeve surrounding and sliding upon a rod connecting
with the valve, and a stop so arranged on the rod that the rod
may be raised or lowered by the valve-controlling means only
when the centrifugal device is being turned by the pump, but
will be positively closed irrespective of its controlling means
when the centrifugal device is at rest. (6.) The improvement
in refrigerating-apparatus, which comprises a removable tank
used for carrying and storing the ammonia-gas, and connected
to the system so that it forms a part thereof, the tank having
valves by means of which it may be closed and sealed when
removed from the system. (7.) The amplification of the invention covered by Claim 6, which consists in forming valves
within a plug screwed into the top of the tank and having a
cap or cover secured to the neck of the tank and enclosing
the valves.
