Notice of Acceptance of Complete Specifications.

Patent Office,
Wellington, 4th October, 1911.

COMPLETE specifications relating to the un-
dermentioned applications for Letters Patent
have been accepted, and are open to public inspection at this office. Any person may, at any time
within two months from the date of this Gazette,
give me notice in writing of opposition to the grant
of any such patent. Such notice must set forth
the particular grounds of objection, and be in duplicate. A fee of 10s. is payable thereon.
The copies of claims and extracts from the specifications and drawings are merely intended to give some further indication of the invention than is disclosed in the title, and the complete specifications and drawings should be referred to for a description of the invention.

No. 28448.—16th September, 1910.—THOMAS Kidd, of Invercargill, New Zealand, Engineer. Improvements in milking-apparatus.*
Extract from Specification.—It is somewhat on the same lines as that described in my specification No. 28449, filed simultaneously herewith, but it differs therefrom as regards the pulsator in that one piston-casting has three washers instead of two, and there is air on both of the small ends of the piston-castings, and an extra air-hole. Constant vacuum is maintained in only one part of the cylinders, and there is constant air-pressure behind both small piston-heads, and there is an extra port. The pulsator has five piston-valves, instead of four.
(Specification, 3s. 3d.)
[Nom.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]

No. 28449.—16th September, 1910.—THOMAS Kidd, of Invercargill, New Zealand, Engineer. Improvements in milking-machines.*
Extract from Specification.—A leading feature is forming the pulsator with twin cylinders in which opposite ends are reduced so that at the instant required the larger end of the cylinder contains a larger vacuum or body of air to produce the greater power necessary at that instant to reverse the piston. Subsidiary features are the provision for easily removing the covers so that the pistons may be readily removed for oiling, cleaning, or repairing, or for cleaning out the various parts; protecting all ports or passages from injury by placing them within the pulsator, and making them straight for easy cleaning. Further features are providing reversed pistons for compactness, arranging the vacuum at one point in the middle of the pulsator, instead of at two points as heretofore, so that a simpler piston can be used, and providing two washers on each piston-casting.
(Specification, 4s. 9d.)
[Nom.—The above extract from the specification is inserted in place of the claims.]

No. 28472. — 22nd September, 1909. — DONALD MUNRO McDONALD, of “Armidale,” Donnybrook, Victoria, Australia, Dairy-farmer. An improved apparatus for cooling and aerating cream and the like.

In an improved apparatus for cooling and aerating cream and the like, a water-chamber consisting of an outer and an inner shell between which is an annular bottom, an inner top extending across said inner shell, an outer top extending across said outer shell above said inner top, a water-inlet pipe at the bottom of said chamber, a water outlet-pipe at the top of said chamber.
(Specification, 6s.)
[Note.—Here follow five other claims.]

No. 28681.—4th November, 1910.—HORACE VICTOR WALLACE, of Sherwood Road, Mount Eden, Auckland, New Zealand, Fibrous Plasterer. Improved plastering for walls, ceilings, and the like.

No. 28692.—7th November, 1910.—WILLIAM LIVINGSTONE HATCHWELL BURGESS, of Auckland, New Zealand, Venetian-blind Maker. Improvements in or relating to venetian blinds.*
Claims.—(1.) In venetian blinds constructed and operating in the manner described, a ratchet-wheel secured upon one end of the blind-supporting roller, and a pawl pivoted upon the head-board and underlying such ratchet-wheel and so constructed as to be raised into engagement with the ratchet-wheel by the manipulation of the blind-operating cord, substantially as specified. (2.) In venetian blinds of the class described, a ratchet-wheel secured upon one end of the blind-supporting roller, a crank-bar pivoted upon the head-board and underlying such wheel, and a second crank connected with the crank-bar and extending forwardly from the pivot-point thereof and arranged adjacent to the depending portion of the blind-operating cord, substantially as specified. (3.) The improvements in or relating to venetian blinds constructed and operated substantially as described and explained, as illustrated in the drawings, and for the purposes set forth.
(Specification, 4s. 9d.)

No. 28702.—7th November, 1910.—JETHRO R. C. Jones, of Auckland, New Zealand, Farmer. An improved two-wheeled vehicle-brake.*
Claim.—(1.) An improved two-wheeled vehicle-brake constructed by mounting above the axle of the vehicle, a horizontal rod running across beneath the under-frame of the body and having its ends formed into or secured to diagonal side rods carrying brake-blocks at their lower ends, said lower ends of the diagonal rods being respectively connected beneath the axle to an arm, and the lower end of a hand-lever mounted or formed on the ends of a front horizontal rod, running across beneath the under-frame of the body, in the manner and for the purposes set forth, as described and illustrated.
(Specification, 4s, 3d.)
[Nom.—Here follow two other claims.]

No. 28708.—10th November, 1910.—UNITED SHOE MACHINERY COMPANY, of Paterson, in the State of New Jersey, United States of America, a corporation duly organized under the laws of said State of New Jersey, carrying on business as Shoe-machinery Manufacturers, and having a place of business at 205 Lincoln Street, Boston, in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, in said United States of America (assignees of Arthur Ernest Jerram, Joseph Gouldbourn, and Arthur Bates, all of Leicester, England, Engineers).

Claims.—(1.) For a heel-attaching or heel-nailing machine, the combination with mechanism operated hydraulically, or by other power, for moving relatively work-engaging members so as to exert a predetermined pressure upon the work located between them irrespective of its thickness, of a hydraulic or other device to lock the said members in such position of pressure against relative movement, for the purpose described, with or without the provision of means by which the said device unlocks the members after the nails have been driven into the work. (2.) For a heel-attaching or heel-nailing machine, the arrangement that work-engaging members are moved relatively to one another to engage the work by a preliminary movement of a manually operable part, and by a further movement of the said part automatically operating hydraulic or other power mechanism is thrown into action first to exert pressure on the work, then to lock the said members against relative movement to maintain the pressure on the work, and finally to unlock the said members to permit removal of the work.
(Specification, £1 2s. 6d.)
