Strana 301 - the improved application of air to produce heat in fires, forges and furnaces *where bellows r.gQj or other blowing apparatus are required...
Strana 105 - ... equilibrium when the power is to the weight as 1 to the number of strings at the lower block.
Strana 139 - I cause it to pass through a very hot funnel, flue, or oven, before it comes to the bottom of the boiler, or to the part of the furnace where it is proposed to melt metal or perform other office, by which means the smoke is still more effectually consumed. In other cases I cause the flame to pass immediately from the fire-place into the space under a boiler, or into the bed of a melting or other furnace.
Strana 140 - Lastly, be it remembered, that my said new invention consists only in the method of consuming the smoke, and increasing the heat, by causing the smoke and flame of the fresh fuel to pass through very hot funnels or pipes, or among, through, or near, fuel which is intensely hot, and which has ceased to smoke ; and by mixing it with fresh air when in these circumstances...
Strana 22 - ... is a thin steel spring, formed into a single broad hoop, and pressed into the undulated form represented, by which it is found to act with uniform energy upon the wedges, until they and the segments become so much worn in the course of time, that the steel spring recovers itself into its original circular figure; d is the frame-work, cast in one piece, with the lower plate of the piston ; e is the piston rod; the dark spaces shown on the plan within the circular frame...

Strana 166 - ... chambers, by means of tubes or pipes ; then is to be placed, either between this connection, or behind the condensing vessels, any machine, or machines, whose principle de-pends upon the known property of all fluids rushing in to fill up the vacuum caused by their action, that is to say, air pumps, water pumps, ventilators, bellows, air machines, &c.; these, however different their constructions, have all one common principle, and therefore the application of them, or others depending upon the...
Strana 319 - ... &c.
