No. 28165.—26th July, 1910.—CHARLES ALEXANDER HENDERSON, of Chicago, Illinois, United States America, Gentleman (assignee of Elsworth Ephraim Flora, of Chicago, Illinois, United States America). Metal-bound box.

Claims.—(1.) A metal-bound box comprising a body-portion formed of sheet material, sheet-metal binding-strips formed with single trough-shaped sections, in which the edge portions of the sheet material are contained and secured, flanges projecting from the inner edges of said trough-sections and forming box-end abutments, and box-ends abutting against and secured to said flanges.

[NOTE.—Here follow three other claims.]

(Specification, 5s. 3d.)

No. 28174.—29th July, 1910.—CHARLES COOPER, of Mangatoki, New Zealand, Factory-manager. Improved apparatus for cooling and heating milk and the like.

Extract from Specification.—A vessel contains a plurality of removable tubes, through the interior of which milk flows, while the exteriors of the tubes are surrounded by flowing cold water, or by water heated by steam.

[NOTE.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]

(Specification, 3s. 6d.)

No. 28178.—30th July, 1910.—FREDERICK WILLIAM JOHN HENNING, Printer, and ALEXANDER HENRY VARNIER, Gentleman, both of 37 and 39 Essex Street, Strand, London, England. Improvements relating to elastic rollers or cylinders.

Extracts from Specification.—This invention relates to rollers or cylinders which consist mainly of a gelatinized-starch composition, such as a composition made from approximately equal weights of starch and concentrated solution of magnesium-chloride. . . . We apply the composition in two or more concentric layers, so that only the outer layer need be removed after the surface has become damaged or worn out. The centre or core of the roller carrying the flexible composition may be an iron spindle or tube, with or without the addition of a detachable sheath or sleeve.

[NOTE.—The above extracts from the specification are inserted in place of the claims.]

(Specification, 4s. 3d.)

No. 28192.—2nd August, 1910.—WILLIAM LAURENCE JOHNSTONE, Dairy-factory Engineer, and ARTHUR HOSKING, Mechanical Engineer, both of Palmerston North, New Zealand. Improvements in apparatus for preventing the formation of froth on liquids.

Extract from Specification.—A cone has a spindle projecting through the top of its casing, and a weight acting upon the spindle by means of levers for the purpose of closing the cone on, or relatively to, its seat. The weight is readily removed by merely lifting it off the spindle.

[NOTE.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]

(Specification, 2s. 9d.)

No. 28198.—3rd August, 1910.—JOHN J. BERRIGAN, of Stockholm, Sweden, Manufacturer. Continuously working apparatus for expression of liquids from solid matters.

Claims.—(1.) A continuously working apparatus for expressing liquids from solids mixed therewith, characterized by a travelling flexible endless-belt-like member provided with transverse depressions or with projecting transverse members spaced apart, forming a series of relatively small press-chambers, and of a plurality of parallel rollers of proper curvature around which the belt is looped alternately over and under the rollers, whereby the press-chambers successively become alternating convex and concave bends, thereby exerting alternating lateral compressions and release of pressure on the contents of each chamber, the material to be treated being fed into the chambers prior to a concave bend and removed from the chambers during a convex bend, and the expressed liquid drawn off through perforations in the belt or in the walls of the chambers.

[NOTE.—Here follow seven other claims.]

(Specification, 14s.)

No. 28201.—3rd August, 1910.—FRANK BARNES GLADMAN, of 281 Collins Street, Melbourne, Victoria, Gentleman. An improved copyists’ indicator apparatus.

Extract from Specification.—The improved apparatus consists, briefly, of two locking-devices, adapted to be actuated alternately by spring-pressure or weight when released by the to-and-fro movement of a finger key or lever. The alternate locking and unlocking of the said devices, and the intermittent movements of the same at each operation of the finger key or lever, permit an indicating-member connected to the above-mentioned devices to be moved instantly from one line to another of and as the matter is being copied. The amount of movement of the indicating-member at each successive operation of the finger key or lever is determined by setting suitable adjustment-means to correspond to the spacing of the matter to be copied.

[NOTE.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]

(Specification, £2 5s.)

No. 28222.—16th September, 1909.—GEORGE RANDOLPH BARHAM, of 17 Princes Avenue, Wood Green, London, England, Draughtsman, and JOHN HUSON WILLIAMS, of 94 Chestnut Avenue, Walthamstow, Essex, England, Foreman Glazier. Improvements in reinforced leaded lights.

Claims.—(1.) In the construction of leaded lights, the employment of a frame of rigid metal, and the method of securing reinforcing-strips of copper or rigid metal to the frame by passing the ends of the strips through holes in the rigid frame; said rigid strips being strained across the frame so as to produce a tension effect, and their ends bent back and clamped against the frame to produce a secure and strong joint, the whole arranged as set forth, and substantially as shown. (2.) In the construction of leaded lights, the method of securing reinforcing-strips of copper or rigid metal by passing their ends through holes in the frame and bending them as described for the purpose specified.

(Specification, 3s. 9d.)

No. 28224.—9th August, 1910.—THE PITTLER UNIVERSAL ROTARY MACHINE SYNDICATE, LIMITED, of Norwich House, Southampton Street, High Holborn, London, England, Manufacturers (assignees of Wilhelm von Pittler, of Norwich House aforesaid, England, Mechanical Engineer). Improvements relating to rotary fluid-pressure machines.

Extracts from Specification.—Independent abutment-slides are provided for each side of the piston-disc, which are set in motion independently by suitable means, and the abutment-slides move with their outer face on guiding-surfaces of the stationary casing, while on the inside they move along stationary bushes, which surround the axle of the piston-disc and extend to the sides of the disc or preferably somewhat into the disc. . . . Setting out of action the controlling-device for the abutment-slides, if the desired pressure or vacuum is exceeded, and the engine therefore runs without load.

[NOTE.—The above extracts from the specification are inserted in place of the claims.]

(Specification, 7s. 3d.)

No. 28228.—8th August, 1910.—WILLIAM MORTON, of Princes Street, Dunedin, New Zealand, Mechanical Engineer. Improvements in resilient wheel-tires, for minimizing and obviating puncture troubles.

Extract from Specification.—I use the inner canvas tube or the like and make slits in it looking towards the centre of the wheel, and fill the said tube with rubber balls through these slits, or in other convenient manner.

[NOTE.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]
