89,177 Apr. 20, 1869 Planing Metals Dwight Slate Hartford, Hartford County, CT The nature of this invention will be understood from the specification and drawings, the object of which is to simplify and make more direct the action of the whole mechanism of the shipping-apparatus of a planer. It has heretofore been the most difficult part to arrange in a planer, involving many joints, rods, &c. By this arrangement, many parts heretofore used, are dispensed with, by substituting a rock-shaft, or a rolling, or oscillating cam, secured upon a rock-shaft, which carries or actuates the shipper-rod, thereby-rendering it more simple, efficient, and durable.

150,253 Apr. 28, 1874 Profiling-Machines Edward G. Parkhurst Hartford, Hartford County, CT Abstract:
My invention consists in the construction and arrangement of certain parts of a profiling- machine, whereby a former can be cut from a model or pattern while both are fixed upon the bed-plate, and the model removed and duplicates cut from the former exactly similar to the original without turning the bedplate or in any manner altering the position of the former after it is cut. In the profiling-machines of ordinary construction the model is fixed to the bed-plate, and a former-pin attached to the slide which carries the cutting-tool is held in close contact with it while the cutting-tool passes around the piece to be cut to the same form, likewise fixed to the bed-plate, and makes a former which shall reproduce the given model. Then the bedplate is turned around one hundred and eighty degrees, so as to change the relative position of the two pieces and bring the former under the forming-pin and the cutter in a position. to cut duplicates as the forming -pin travels around the former. In this operation it is impossible to exactly change the relative position of the pieces, so that inaccuracies will occur which prevent the duplicates from being exactly like the original. To remedy this is the object of my invention.
Claim:
The two parallel spindles f g, with interchangeable former-pin and cutting-tool, when arranged with intermediate gearing, so that either can be driven by the pulley while the other is clamped, and this mechanism is attached to traversing frames which cause the spindles always to move in similar and parallel directions.

165,519 Jul. 13, 1875 Protractor Ambrose Swasey Hartford, Hartford County, CT Swasey's Bevel Protractor

The accompanying illustration represents a new instrument intended for the use of draughtsmen, machinists and surveyors. It was invented by Ambrose Swasey, at the shops of the Pratt & Whitney Co., of Hartford, Conn.

First, we have a plain steel square, one-eighth of an inch thick, the two sides of which are each five inches in length. A swinging rule, or blade A, is attached to the square by means of a circular piece B, which moves in a dovetailed slot, and may be set to move tight or loose by means of two screws and the binder C, depending upon the friction to hold it. The edge of the slot is marked with the different degrees, from zero up to 90°. In the illustration, each mark on the arc represents 5°, while in the regular instrument each of these degrees is marked. Both sides of the protractor presents a level face, so that it may lie flat upon the paper, and be used equally well on either side. The protractors in general use have a thumb-screw (to hold the blade), which projects from one side, in consequence of which only one side can be used.
The Swasey instrument is so arranged that any angle may be measured or drawn, whether acute or obtuse. Should the draughtsman wish to draw a line at an angle of 65° from his T square, set the zero mark on the sliding arc to that number, as indicated by the graduations, and placing the base of the square forming that angle with the swinging rule against the T square; then draw the desired angle. By simply turning the instrument one-quarter turn, round towards the right, so as to bring the other base of the square against the T square, will give an angle of 155°. If the instrument be now lifted by the right-hand corner and turned over towards the left (upside down), the angle formed will be 25°
Again, if the instrument be placed in the first position, as shown in drawing, the angle being 65°, taking hold of the left-hand corner and turning it over (upside down), will give an opposite angle of 115°. From the foregoing illustrations, the reader will understand that after drawing an angle of 60°, by turning the instrument over the same angle may be drawn but pointing in the opposite direction. The advantages of these problems may be readily understood by draughtsmen, as by simply turning the instrument, any angle, or its complement, may be drawn at once. This instrument is particularly adapted to the measurement of angles drawn upon paper or any other plane surface, as the swinging rule being the same thickness as the square, the edges of both lie even upon the paper, thus the protractor can be more accurately adjusted to the lines than if one edge were raised above the surface, as is the case with most protractors.
Another practical advantage in having both sides of the protractor even is, when the angles of solid bodies are to be measured, as in the case of crystals, pieces of machinery, etc., there is no difficulty in holding it firmly and squarely upon the piece to be measured, at the same time forming the angle between the swinging rule and body of the tool, open to the apex. The cross-section lines of complicated parts of machinery, where a number of angles are required to bring out the different parts distinctly, may be readily drawn by adjusting the swinging rule.

560,171 May. 12, 1896 Multiple drill August J. Oehring Chicago, IL This was apparently a fairly important patent because the drill spindles were both universally (i.e., simultaneously) and individually adjustable. No previous drill had provided this combination of adjustability, where all adjustments could be made in all directions.
The patent specification says "Assignor of one-third to the Pratt & Cady Company, of Hartford, Connecticut." A lawsuit involving this patent indicates that the assignee was the Pratt & Whitney Company. The lawsuit was against Wm. Gardam & Son of New York. The lawsuit originally resulted in a finding largely against the complainant, Pratt & Whitney, but the decision was reversed on appeal.

The pinion-gear is carried on a lever that can slide side-to-side to align with the chosen cone gear, and then rocks forward to engage both the cone gear and the driving gear. This basic design was not new but many design details were covered by this patent, most of these refinements intended to strengthen and stiffen the mechanism.

1,287,732 Dec. 17, 1918 Machine for Milling Knurls Friederich Müller Hartford, CT The invention relates to a milling machine primarily, intended and adapted for the cutting of spiral grooves in cylindrical blanks to form knurls. It will be understood, however, that while the machine is especially adapted for forming knurls, it may by suitable modifications, be adapted for other uses, and it will further be understood that several of the parts of the machine may be used separately from other parts and may be embodied in machines quite different in construction and operation. One of the objects of the invention is to provide a knurl milling or equivalent machine having two or more spindles upon which knurl blanks may be carried to be simultaneously milled. Another object of the invention is to provide improved means whereby all of the spindles may be simultaneously and uniformly indexed. A further object of the invention is to provide improved means whereby the knurl blanks and the milling cutters are separated from each other on the return movement. Another object of the invention is to provide improved means whereby right or left spiral grooves may be formed as required. Another object of the invention is to provide means for stopping the operation of the machine after a blank has been completely milled. Still another object of the invention is to provide an improved indexing mechanism. Additional objects of the invention will be apparent from the following specification and claims. In the accompanying drawings I have shown the embodiment of the invention which I now deem preferable, but it will be understood that the invention can be embodied in other ways and that the drawings are intended to be merely illustrative and are not intended to define or limit the scope of the invention.

This invention relates to a machine which is similar in many respects to that set forth in my contemporaneously pending application filed April 5, 1917, Serial No. 159,883 (patent # 1,323,276. The present machine like that in said other application can be utilized in widely different arts, although it is of especial advantage in the production of bullets such for instance as are used in small arms. The present machine, like that in the aforesaid application, comprises mechanism for supporting a blank and for supplying to the blank one or. a succession of blows upon its surface. In the earlier application before referred to, I have shown a machine having two rotatable rollers for applying a plurality of blows in rapid succession to the surface of the blank, these blows being delivered by means of ribs formed on the surface of two rapidly rotating rollers arranged side by side. In the present case I make use of an outer annular roller and an inner roller which is surrounded by the outer roller and which is arranged eccentrically with respect thereto. The bullet blank is engaged and acted upon by the surfaces of the two rollers at the throat where the surfaces are close together.

1,547,514 Jul. 28, 1925 Thread Testing Device Paul M. Mueller Hartford, Hartford County, CT Joseph K. Schofield, patent attorney
This invention relates to a thread testing device, and in particular to a device for rapidly determining the accuracy of a number of similar screw threaded members. An object of the present invention is to provide a screw thread testing device which may be adjusted over a wide range of sizes and adapted to quickly compare the accuracy's of a number of screw threads with a standard screw thread of the same nominal size. Another object of the invention is to provide a device which by substitution of different forms and sizes of screw thread contacting members and by adjustment of the positions of the screw thread contacting members may be used for comparing the dimensions of a number of different types and sizes of screw threads within a wide range. One feature which enables me to accomplish the above objects is that I provide a pair of oppositely disposed screw thread gaging or contacting members having serrated edges corresponding in outline to the particular form of screw threads being examined and, by permitting different sets of contacting members to be readily and quickly substituted, any number of different forms of screw threads may be tested. Another feature which is advantageous is that one of the screw thread contacting members is so mounted that it is adjustable over a wide range to accommodate screw threaded members of varying diameters and the oppositely disposed contacting member is flexibly or resiliently mounted so that it may have a limited movement toward or from the first contacting member. Means are also provided whereby the position of the flexibly mounted contacting member may be determined to a high degree of precision when in screw thread engaging position, so Another object of the invention is to provide contacting members adapted to engage but one thread on either side of the specimen being tested so that the inaccuracy in diameter can be determined independently of any error in the lead or pitch of the screw threads. By the use of both forms of gaging or contacting members upon a specimen and a standard, the error, if any, in lead or pitch can be approximately calculated. It is also an object of the invention to arrange the contacting members and to support the member being tested in such a way that light may be reflected and transmitted through the base of the device so that the contact between the contacting members and cs the screw threaded body may be visually examined, and errors of pitch and angle of sides of the screw threaded body being tested may be readily ascertained. A further object of the invention is to provide a suitable adjustable support for the specimen being tested permitting the specimen to be rapidly placed in operative position relative to the contacting or gaging members. It is also an object of the invention to provide a support suitable not only for plain screw threaded members but for such members as taps in which the gaging members must contact at points on the screw threaded portions near the cutting edges.
1,549,635 Aug. 11, 1925 Thread Gauge Paul F. Vokal Hartford, CT This invention relates to gauges and particularly to a thread gauge for measuring the pitch diameter of threading taps. Such a tap ordinarily comprises a plurality of spaced thread cutting lands there around, as shown in the accompanying drawing. It is of course essential that the pitch diameter of these taps shall be accurate within certain
limits and it is the primary object of this invention to provide a gauge particularly adapted to measure such diameter.
It is a further object of the invention to provide a U-shaped gauge having a pair of anvils on one arm thereof for engaging the threads on two adjacent lands of a tap and a cooperating micrometer-operated thread engaging element on the other arm for engaging the threads on a land opposite the said two adjacent lands, the said anvils and their supporting element preferably being loosely mounted whereby to freely adjust themselves to the threads being gauged.

Raber Simsbury, Hartford County, CT "This invention is directed to a three-phase DC motor drive for use in conjunction with machine tools for driving a spindle or a slide. In particular, the invention comprises a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) assembly, utilized to permit three-phase line voltages to be applied across the armature of a DC motor. A tachometer is utilized to generate a signal indicative of the motor speed which is combined with a command signal and a current limit signal. From the combination of these signals, a signal is generated to control the firing of the SCR assembly. This invention includes the use of saturable reactors to prevent one of the SCR's of the assembly from firing while another is conducting. Also as an important feature of this invention, there is provided tachometer ripple cancellation in order to obtain a low noise output signal from the tachometer."
