Abstract: A method of forming a double timing belt wherein a belt preform is firstly formed with teeth on one face thereof. The opposite face of the belt in which the tensile cord is embedded is provided with oppositely projecting teeth in accurate alignment with the teeth of the preform by a successive molding of pluralities of such teeth to the opposite face, with the preform entrained about a pair of adjustably spaced toothed pulleys. Accurate uniform pitch line difference is maintained by providing shims between the mold and belt support during the molding of the second set of teeth to the preform. The mold and support are retained in accurate alignment by cooperating dowels and recesses on the support and mold members. Cooling devices are provided at opposite ends of the mold for preventing full vulcanization of the tooth rubber thereat.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing glass-lined tube. An undercoat of glass is fused onto the surfaces of nozzle-shaped flange-pieces, from their outer peripheral edges to their molded and curved inner faces, welding flange components then welded to either end of the metal tube to form a complete flange at each end. The inner faces of the weld zones are then shaped by grinding and polishing. A glass tube that is greater in length than the metal tube is fitted loosely into the latter tube. The glass tube is supported at either end within the wells of conical caps which are fitted around the flanges by air-permeable spacer-rings, with the ends of the glass tube extending beyond the outward faces of the flange joints and with the glass tube being securely positioned at the center line of the metal tube.
