From Summary: "The usual type of altimeter contains a pressure element, the deflections of which are approximately proportional to pressure changes. An evenly divided altitude scale is secured by using a mechanism between the pressure element and pointer which gives the required motion of the pointer. A temperature-compensated altimeter was constructed at the Bureau of Standards for the Bureau of Aeronautics of the Navy Department which contained a manually operated device for controlling the multiplication of the mechanism to the extent necessary for temperature compensation. The introduction of this device made it difficult to adjust the multiplying mechanism to fit an evenly divided altitude scale. To meet this difficulty a pressure element was designed and constructed which gave deflections which were proportional to altitude; that is, to the logarithm of the pressure."

Patent for an "improved truss or abdominal belt" (lines 40-41) that provides a simple design with added pads.

Patent for a machine that catches insects and their eggs by using beaters and a catch pan as the machine is drawn over crops. The parts are adjustable to adapt to the size of crop rows and crops.

Patent for improved ties and fastenings for securing and binding together railway rails.

Patent for useful improvements to surface-treating machines with a "rapidly moving surface treating member," (lines 12-13) including illustrations.

Patent for a water heating attachment for internal combustion motors that will allow the cooling fluid in said motors to remain heated even when the motor is at rest, especially during freezing temperatures, including illustration.

Patent for a machine to cut sorghum and similar standing crops

"In this report tests are described in which the distribution of pressures over models of the wings of the PW-9 Airplane was investigated. The wing models were tested individually and in the biplane combination. The investigation was conducted in the atmospheric wind tunnel of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics" (p. 315).

Patent for an automobile attachment which protects the said automobile from adverse weather conditions. The apparatus is unique in its simple construction, practicality, and ability to "be rolled into a small compass" when not in use (lines 20-21).

Patent for an improved strap-binder or lock and record-check that is "simple, effective, and comparatively inexpensive" to manufacture (lines 8-11).

"The rate of change in power of aircraft engines with altitude has been the subject of considerable discussion. Only a small amount of data from direct measurements of the power delivered by airplane engines during flight, however, has been published. This report presents the results of direct measurements of the power delivered by a Liberty 12 airplane engine taken with a hub dynamometer at standard altitudes from zero to 13,000 feet. Six flights were made with the engine installed in a modified DH-4 airplane" (p. 323).

Patent for concrete wall construction which is light in weight and inexpensive to fabricate. Frames may be previously constructed in a manner to allow for windows and other common wall features.

Patent for a planter attachment. It allows quick attachment of a stalk cutter that would let a planter serve two purposes.

This report presents the results of an extension to higher angles of attack of the investigation of the rolling and yawing moments due to ailerons of various chords and spans on two airfoils having the Clark Y and U. S. A. 27 wings. The measurements were made at various angles of pitch but at zero angle of roll and yaw, the wing chord being set at an angle of +4 degrees to the fuselage axis. In the case of the Clark Y airfoil the measurements have been extended to a pitch angle of 40 degrees, using ailerons of span equal to 67 per cent of the wing semispan and chord equal to 20 and 30 per cent of the wing chord. The work was conducted on wing models of 60-inch span and 10-inch chord.

Patent for improvements in bee-hives by providing means in which the hive can be ventilated during warm weather. The invention provides means in which the ventilating means can be removed or rendered inoperative whenever desired or during cold weather.

Patent for a tire mold that improves the viability of a tire mold due to the adjustable levers used during the tire curing process.
