236,155. Naamlooze Vennootschap Philips' Gloeilampenfabrieken. June 25, 1924, [Convention date]. Vacuum tubes; vacuum apparatus with reflecting surfaces; low-pressure metallic-vapour apparatus.-Electric discharge tubes in which a light - radiating positive column appears and which comprise two electrodes within a sealed envelope filled with a rare gas in contact with the electrodes are operated at 500 volts or above and are provided with one or more conductive members extending over a considerable length of the tube and along or in the wall thereof out of contact with the gas. Each conductive member may comprise a conductive layer 6, Fig. 1, such as aluminium paste or a silver mirror reflecting light in a predetermined direction, or a copper or other metal wire or band 20, Fig. 3, arranged helically around the tube, disposed within the walls of the tube or enclosed in an insulating tube within the discharge tube. An auxiliarycapacitive discharge between the conductive members or between one member and an electrode lowers the initiating and operating high voltage of the main discharge and permits a reduction in the resistance in series with the tube. At least one conductive member may be connected with one electrode of the tube and two members, such as two helices with their ends near together at the centre of the tube, may be connected to the two electrodes. One member connected to the electrode may be connected to earth, as in Fig. 3, so that nearly the whole tube is at earth potential, the member extending close to the other electrode. Alternatively, the auxiliary discharge may be produced by a voltage separate from the main discharge voltage and preferably of such phase that the auxiliary voltage is a maximum when the main discharge can be initiated. Two conductive layers 6, 7, Fig. 1, on opposite sides of the outer surface of the tube may be supplied with voltage from a transformer 13 separate from the transformer 10 supplying the main discharge, between the electrodes 4, 5 in widened parts 2, 3 of the tube. To prevent discharges along the outer wall of the tube when two conductive members are used, one at least is arranged inside the tube. Several tubes may be connected in parallel across a single transformer. Specification 154,199 is referred to. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) comprises also the mixture of a small quantity of mercury or like vapour with the gas. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Diaphragm electrolytic cell
|
en
|
In producing chlorine and caustic alkali e.g. caustic soda by electrolysis in a diaphragm electrolytic cell, a foam of chlorine and brine is led from the cell to a separate foam-breaking space in which foam is separated by gravity and from which the separated brine is recycled to the cell. Preferably make-up brine is added to the foam-breaking space. A plurality of diaphragm cells may be electrically connected in parallel and share a common foam-breaking space.

1,048,646. Sewing machines. UNION SPECIAL MACHINE CO. Aug. 8, 1963 [Aug. 8,1962], No. 31280/63. Heading D1G. A sewing machine comprises a lower conveyer belt, an upper and yieldable conveyer belt, and power-driven auxiliary feed means operating on the work in advance of the presser foot for assisting the passage of work under the latter, the auxiliary feed means being free to move upwardly substantially independently of the upward movement of the presser foot. As shown, lower endless belts 30 are mounted on end rollers, one of which is driven via a variablespeed gear box, and the top runs of the belts pass over a work table 29. An upper endless belt 39 is mounted on end rollers 48 carried by a frame 49 which is connected by rods 51 to a horizontal pivoted shaft. The bottom run of belt 39 engages idler rollers 50 carried by frame 49. One end roller 49 is driven by a shaft 54 having a universally jointed connection to a variable speed gear box. The presser foot 68, co-operating with feed dogs 67, is carried by a lever 69 which is mounted for pivotal movement both vertically and horizontally and is biased downwardly by a light spring 70. A plate 69a, loosely mounted on lever 69, journals a feed wheel 36 which has two work-engaging surfaces. Feed wheel 36 is located in front of the presser foot and is connected by a flexible shaft 37 to a variable feed gear box. The arrangement is such that work 21, 22 on approaching the stitching point initially raises wheel 36 independently of the presser foot 68 to facilitate introduction of the work by wheel 36 under the lightly spring-loaded presser foot. A bar 23 positioned on table 29 in advance of the stitching point has a hollow portion which increases in depth in the direction of work feed, and through which a stream 25 of compressed air is directed on the lower workpiece 21 for straightening or uncurling the edge thereof. A tube 24, mounted on frame 49, is formed with perforations through which a stream 27 of compressed air is directed downwardly on the upper workpiece 22 for straightening or uncurling the edges thereof and thereafter holding said edge against the already straightened edge of the lower workpiece. The edges are trimmed by a stationary knife 40 positioned after wheel 36 and ahead of the needle, the trimmings being carried away by a shoot 83. A pivoted blade 65 positioned at the rear of the needle, is arranged to be oscillated, for cutting the thread chain, under the control of a photo-cell 71 which is mounted on frame 49 and acts when the trailing end of a workpiece passes thereunder. A pair of spaced photocells 42, 43, Fig. 4 (not shown), positioned at the loading point of the belts 30, are arranged to stop the driving motor when neither detects work thereunder. The completed workpieces are stacked on a pivoted arm 58, Fig. 7 (not shown), oscillated by means 62 under control of a photo cell 60 which is positioned above the discharge end of belts 30 and acts when the trailing end of a workpiece passes thereunder. In a modification feed wheel 36 is replaced by a further upper belt supported by the leading roller 48 and a roller 50 so positioned as to press said belt upon the work immediately in advance of the presser foot.

1,007,540. Valves. NORMALAIR Ltd. Nov. 30, 1962 [Aug. 31, 1961], No. 31291/61. Heading F2V. A valve comprises a main valve unit 11 having an inlet 15 and two outlets 16, 17 which are controlled by diaphragm valves 28, 29 cooperating with seats 26, 27 and connected by a rod 32. The valves are actuated by fluid pressure supplied and exhausted through small bore pipes 12, 13 under the control of a pilot valve unit 10. The pilot valve unit 10 has a fluid pressure inlet pipe 21 which feeds pressure to a chamber 52 and by a passage 53 to chamber 51 and acts on valve closure members 47, 48 to urge them towards seats 41, 42 on the valve body. A spool 43, reciprocable in the bore of the housing by a lever 57, has an axial bore open to the atmosphere and seats 44, 45 for the valves 47, 48. The spindles of the valves 47, 48 are a loose fit in the bore to allow exhaust of fluid from the pipes 12, 13. With the pilot valve in the position the valve 48 is on the spool seat 44 to close the connection between pipe 12 and exhaust and allow fluid pressure to flow through pipe 12 to act on the diaphragm 28, the pipe 13 is open to exhaust. When the lever 57 is moved to the dotted line position fluid pressure is fed to pipe 13 and pipe 12 is open to exhaust. The diaphragm 28, 29 need not be connected by the rod 32 and the spool 43 may be of such a length that in a mid-position both valves 47, 48 seat on the spool seats and fluid pressure is supplied to both pipes 12, 13 simultaneously to close both valves 28, 29. Specification 944,931 is referred to.

648,146. Frame constructions. THOMPSON BROS. (BILSTON), Ltd., and HAND, K. Dec. 3, 1948, No. 31292. [Classes 79 (iii) and 79 (iv)] The frame of a tanker is constituted by two longitudinal tubes of relatively large diameter rigidly coupled together and supporting the tank. Such tubes may be used for carrying liquid additionally to the tank. Figs. 1 and 2 show the complete tanker and the tubular frame with tank in side elevation, Fig. 3 is a section on A-A and Fig. 4 on B-B of Fig. 2. The frame comprises a pair of tubular members 2 whose forward ends 6 are swaged in to a tapering rectangular section to carry the engine 7, gearbox 8 and spring mounting brackets 9, and whose rear ends are formed into a hollow T section, Fig. 4. The T section is formed by removing a strip from along the bottom of each tube, bending the sides upwardly and again inwardly upon themselves to form and reinforce the top of the T, then welding in a deep channel member 10 to form the leg of the T. The two tubes are secured together by channel members 3 and gussets 4, and the tank 1 is secured to the assembly by gussets 5. The inner sides of the tubular members 3 are recessed at 16 to accomodate the propeller shaft, and are provided with internal stiffening plates 17 to relieve the strain where their cross section changes. The whole of the hollow frame members may be used for carrying liquid, but preferably only the portions of large diameter are so used, the ends of which are sealed off by plates 18. The tank 1 and frame members 2 are covered by a cowling 21 which may extend forwardly to the driver's cabin to enclose a space 20 to house hoses and other equipment.

1,013,847. Clutch-brake control; electromagnetic brakes. F. H. SHEPARD. Aug. 20, 1962 [Aug. 21, 1961], No. 31889/62. Headings F2C, F2E and F2L. In an electromagnetically actuated friction clutch-brake arrangement for operation at high speed, in order to reduce the delay in starting or stopping the output shaft when the current to a brake or clutch coil is turned off and the current to the other coil is turned on, a reverse pulse is applied to the first coil to repel the driven clutch disc. The clutch-brake unit may be used for driving the paper shift mechanism of a high speed printer. The unit comprises a clutch electromagnet 16 which is driven by a motor (not shown) and a brake electromagnet 30, between which is positioned a disc 26 fast on a driven shaft 24. The disc 26 is formed of non-magnetic material and has magnetic clutch elements 28 loosely fitted therein. The right-hand face of the clutch electromagnet is formed by two steel rings 18, 20 separated by an annular gap 22, and the left-hand face of the brake electromagnet is similarly formed by rings 32, 34. Each clutch element 28 is formed by a soft iron core 40, the outer faces of which are coated with brake linings 42, and when first placed in the unit the iron core extends at 44 on each side beyond the vertical plane of the brake lining. The portions 44 bridge the gaps between the clutch and brake rings, and after some operation the portions 44 are worn down into the same plane as the friction linings to give maximum engagement. The electromagnets are energized alternately by a circuit including a first output transistor 50 and a second output transistor 52 which are alternately conductive. The collector of transistor 50 is connected through a low resistance 60 to the clutch coil 16 and the collector of transistor 52 is connected through a resistance 72 to the brake coil 30. The base of the transistor 50 is connected to the emitter of an input transistor 82, the collector of which is connected through a silicone diode 90 to the base of the transistor 52, and the input transistor 82 is controlled by a signal from the output of a flip-flop unit 92 which has two inputs 94, 96. When the input 94 is actuated by a momen. tarily trigger pulse, the input transistor 82 becomes conductive, and when input 96 is energized the transistor 82 is blocked. When the input transistor 82 is blocked, the output transistor 50 is blocked and the output transistor 52 is conductive so that the brake coil 30 is energized. When the input transistor 82 is conductive, the base of transistor 50 becomes negative and the transistor conducts. The voltage drop across a resistor 86 in the circuit to the base of the transistor 52 is sufficient in conjunction with the voltage drop across a diode 54 to its emitter to block the transistor 52. When the transistor 52 is blocked, a capacitor 74 which was charged during its conductive phase, is discharged through a capacitor 66, providing a damped resonant discharge circuit causing a very rapid decay of the current and then a reverse pulse in the electromagnet. The clutch elements 28 are therefore rapidly shifted from contact with the brake to the clutch electromagnet. A similar sequence of events occurs when the brake electromagnet is energized. U.S.A. Specification 2,924,314 and U.K. Specification 825,646 are referred to. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 803,268.

[Class 30] [Also in Groups XVII and XXIII] A cutter for opening packages comprises a handle 15, Fig. 1, a cutting blade 27, Figs. 1 and 2, carried by the handle and projecting forward therefrom, and a U-shaped guard 39 covering the blade, the guard being pivotally connected at its rear with the front of the handle and having a spring 45 urging it to bladecovering position, and the blade being longitudinally adjustable in the handle. The handle comprises two parts 16, 17 having blade-clamping jaws 26, 25, the jaw 25 having a stud 33 to engage one of the notches 32 in the blade, and a pin 34 to engage one of the slots 35 in the blade, whereby the blade is longitudinally adjustable and reversible. The parts 16, 17 are secured together by a screw 30 and located by a tubular portion 29 and an annular seat 28. Walls 37 define a truncated triangular magazine for blades held therein laterally in position by a lug 38 on the part 16. A screw 36 abuts the blade to clamp it tightly, and acts as a pivot for the guard, which has a notch 44 to hold a cord to be cut. In another form, for cutting a wrapper along an edge of a package, the guard 57, Fig. 9, has no notch 44, and for cutting a wrapper other than along an edge of a package, the guard may have a horizontal flange 59 to rest on the package.

A lever lock 10 is provided with a plurality of levers 13 mounted on a common lever pivot 17 for actuation by a double bitted key 19 which has different lever steps each for engaging in a cutout 18 in an associated lever, each cutout having a generally rectangular shape adapted to the size of the double lever bit to be inserted therein and provided with substantially arcuate oppositely located curved depressions 18a, 18b on its longitudinal sides, the oppositely directed lever steps of the key each acting substantially simultaneously on one of the arcuate depressions of a lever when the. key is turned, each pair of oppositely located lever steps complementing one another to the same length, in which the curved depressions of all or substantially all the levers are congruent and correspond to outer curves created by arcs of all the different circles described by individual lever steps each about its respective centre relatively to its lever, the centres of adjacent circles being spaced corresponding to the interval between the depth of one lever step and that of the next longer or shorter lever step and lying on an arc centred on the lever pivot, each such interval subtending substantially the same angle at the centre of the arc. As shown, the lever group 13 and a flank lever 15, are each provided with a pocket 23 for engagement with a bolt stump 20 in the path of the bolt 12 when all the pockets are aligned by the key to unlock the lock. The bolt is guided on a stump 27 by a lanket hole 26 and the key steps are arranged to engage the upper and lower depressions in the levers at an angle of about 65 degrees to a line L connecting the lever pivot and the centre line of the key bit. The flank lever 15 is provided with a pin 28 which restores the levers to the locking position under the influence of a spring 29 and a projection 30 on the flank lever 15 prevents withdrawal of the key in a position other than the locked position of the levers. When the key is turned to the 65 degree position a recessed bolt step 19b thereon engages in a recess 31 in the bolt talon to withdraw the bolt. In a modification, Figs. 7 and 8 (not shown) the levers are each provided with a pocket (34), the talon of the bolt is provided with recesses (35), (31), and the key is provided with an additional bolt step (19c) to permit rotation of the key through a further 180 degrees to move the bolt to a further unlocked position or beyond its unlocked position in which it actuates a door latch through a runner (36) or in which a door latch is actuated by the key. In this embodiment, a suitably modified flank lever (38) is used.

871,109. Steam superheaters. FOSTER WHEELER Ltd. July 11, 1957 [Oct. 23, 1956], No. 32273/56. Class 123(3) Saturated or partly superheated steam from a water tube boiler 12 is heated to its final temperature in a separately-fired superheater 10 which may be disposed near the turbines &c., supplied from the boiler. The superheater is fired by oil burners 22 and receives combustion air from a forced draughed fan 24 also supplying air to the burners 32 of the boiler. Air from the fan 24 is proportioned between the boiler and superheater by dampers 26, 28, the opening of the damper 26 being regulated in accordance with the flow of steam through the superheater and its temperature to maintain the latter constant. The superheater 10 is supplied with excess air, the final steam temperature being regulated by variation of the proportion of this excess air by adjustment of the damper 26. Hot, oxygencontaining gases leaving the superheater are led through a mixer device 30 into the duct conveying air to the boiler burners 32. In a modification, the boiler has an integral superheater from which the steam flows directly to the independently-fired superheater and provision is made for some of the partly superheated steam to be branched off for use when required in auxiliary machinery, the temperature of the withdrawn steam being adjusted in an air desuperheater disposed in the duct conveying combustion air to the boiler burners.

1431072 Non-foamed pressed glass UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA REGENTS OF 6 July 1973 [5 July 1972 (2)] 32332/73 Heading C1M A method of making a non-foamed glass product comprises mixing particulate usedcontainer glass together with a glass filling agent which is defined as an inert substance that will not foam under the conditions of the method, said used-container glass having the following concentration of foreign inclusions contained therein in per cent by weight, 0À1- 3 Fe, 0À1-2 Sn, 0À1-2 Al, 0À1-1 other metals, 0À1-1 cellulosics, 0À1-1 other organics and having an average reflectance of 5-95%; subjecting the resulting mix to temperature and pressure conditions sufficient to sinter and soften said glass but insufficient to melt said glass; maintaining said mix under said conditions while pressing said mix until said glass has been converted into a pressed glass coherent mass having a decorative multi-coloured appearance; and thereupon cooling said mix to below the solidification point thereof and recovering the glass product. The glass filling agent may be fly ash, sand, clay, asbestos, fibreglass together with additives such as pigments may also be added, but is preferably heat treated excreta which may be derived from sewage plant cake, livestock excreta and poultry excreta. Heat treatment is suitably carried out at 200- 1000 C. Typical heat treated excreta derived from human sewage cake contains 17À5 wt. per cent carbon, 1À7 wt. per cent hydrogen, 14À7 wt. per cent Si, 1À0 wt. per cent Al whilst heat treated excreta derived from cow dung may contain 31 wt. per cent carbon, 10 wt. per cent silicon, 3 wt. per cent alumina and 2 wt. per cent hydrogen. The treating temperature of the mix of glass and glass filling agent is usually kept at 500-1000 C. while treating pressures of 10-10,000 p.s.i.g. are applied. Typical evidence times for pressing operations are 1 second-60 minutes. The hot pressing can be supplemented by applying to surface(s) of the pressed product pigments in the form of inorganic oxides such as ferric oxide or lead oxide, or metals and/or sheets of glass to which the pressed product is bonded under suitable heat and pressure. Products may be used for roofing, floor and wall tiles, artificial slate or marble.

522,421. Tables; chairs; easels. MAINA, J. Nov. 10, 1938, No. 32725. [Class 52 (iii)] [Also in Groups XXIX and XXV] Drawing tables, easels, dentists' chairs, surgical operating-tables &c. are mounted so as to be capable of vertical adjustment by means of a hydraulic-apparatus comprising a ram 4 capable of sliding in a cylinder 3 containing oil &c. and connected by a valve 7 to surrounding reservoir 2 containing oil and formed with airtight connection between itself and the cylinder 3 so that air under pressure can be pumped into the upper end of cylinder 2. The valve 7 is normally closed under spring action but by means of a pedal 8, or other device operable at a distance, the valve 7 may be opened to allow the ram to be raised to the desired position by the passage of the oil from the reservoir 2 under the action of the compressed air. The valve 7 is finally cut off, and the load on the ram 4 is then supported by the fluid beneath it. As applied to a draughtsman's table 6 carried by arms 28 on a shaft 26, the shaft 26 is mounted in a casing 27 carried by the ram 4, and the shaft 26 is angularly adjustable relatively to the casing by means of a pivot adjustment comprising a fixed gear 29, Fig. 3, with which engages an axially movable gear 30 secured to the shaft 26. The gears 29, 30 are normally held in engagement by balls 35 which are moved radially of the shaft 26 by a cam 36 on a sliding rod 32 which is moved axially by lever mechanism when it is required to adjust the table. This releases the locking action of the balls 35 and permits the table to be moved to the right in order to throw the gears 29, 30 out of engagement and thus permit of angular adjustment of the table.

1,187,953. Rotary compressors. HYDROVANE COMPRESSOR CO. Ltd. July 20, 1967 [July 21, 1966], No.32756/66. Heading F1F. A fuel-control device to regulate the speed of an I. C. engine for driving a rotary positivedisplacement compressor of the outwardly-sliding vane type includes a bellows 10 made of e. g. plastics material, and fixed to an immovable body 11 containing an axially-movable rod 15, which is attached at end end thereof to a disc 12 engaging with the bellows and is furnished with an annular disc or washer 30 that constitutes a piston, the latter being loosely lodged in a cylinder 17 that is charged with either a liquid or a paste through a passage 32, whereby movement of the disc 12 in response to changes in the pressure of gas within an inlet in the compressor (not shown) produces corresponding movement of the rod 15 against the retarding action of the piston. The pressure aforesaid is communicated to the interior of the bellows through a pipe-union 20 in a bore 21, containing a non-return valve-member 23, and a passage 24, the latter being in communication with a flow-restricting orifice 25 constituting a vent. The disc 12 abuts a compression spring 27 that effects inflation of the bellows through the orifice 25 when the pressure in said inlet rises and causes the valve-member 23 to move into its closing position. The rod 15 is connected by a lever (not shown) to a further rod that is coupled to a fuel-control member in the engine. Inflation of the bellows results in an increase in the rate of flow of fuel to the engine; and, to regulate the maximum speed of the engine, an adjustable stoprod 37 for the disc 12 is lodged in a boss 36 upon a cover 35 for the bellows. Axial movement of the rod 37 can be effected by rotating a screw 38 having an eccentric portion engaging with a circumferentially-orientated limb of an L-shaped groove 39 in the rod. Coarse adjustment of the rod can be performed when the rod is rotated to bring the axially-orientated limb of the groove into alignment with the said portion of the screw. The rod 37 may be replaced by a screw (45, Fig. 2, not shown), which has a circlip (47) thereon to restrict outward displacement thereof. The walls of the bellows are reinforced by rings 26.

1432666 Automatic exchange systems JEUMONT-SCHNEIDER 11 July 1973 [20 July 1972] 32989/73 Heading H4K A subscriber line circuit includes in addition to a speech circuit including a threshold circuit adapted to detect when the subscriber goes offhook, a second branch controlled by a ringing relay so as to be connected to the subscribers line for each burst of ringing signals, said second branch including a transformer for the supply of ringing current, a battery and connected in parallel a capacitor, a diode and a further threshold detector, said further detector being adapted to detect off-hook signals during the ringing signal bursts. As shown the exchange is connected for speech at S and normally supplies power to the subscribers line connected at L. To send ringing bursts the exchange energizes a relay 8 which moves its contacts to positions 9 and 10. Ringing tones supplied from the mains over transformer T2 are then coupled to line and via resistors R3, R4 back to the caller. If the called party answers during a ringing burst D.C. current from battery 12 flows through relay 20 enabling it and supplying an off-hook indication at 21. Diode 18 by-passes the unwanted half of the ringing current. Zener diode 17 prevents the capacitor which is electrolytic from being reverse biased and Zener diode 19 is provided to prevent relay 20 responding to residual voltage due to Zener diode 17. Thermistors 2, 3 and resistors R1, R2 which may also be thermistors protect against short-circuits and relays 4 and 20 and their contacts 5 and 21 may be replaced by photo-emissive diodes and phototransistors.

1,062,717. Buckles. A. ROSSI. Aug. 14, 1964, No. 33155/64. Heading E2A. A buckle for waist and other belts comprises a buckle housing having a front panel 22, top and bottom longitudinal rearwardly projecting flanges 24, a pair of slidable members 46, 48 slidable in the flanges rearwardly of the panel 22, resilient means 50 coupling the slidable members together and biased to constantly urge the plates toward one another, means for fixing one end of the belt 14 to one slidable member 46 to extend through one of the buckle body open ends, and means carried by the other slidable member 48 for detachably coupling the other end of the belt 16 thereto to extend through the other open buckle body end. Each flange 24 has a longitudinally projecting rib 30, the inner channel 32 of which forms a guide track for the slidable members. The rearward ends of the flanges 44 are outwardly convergent to retain a cover slide 78 in position. The flat plate slidable member 46 has a cut out tongue 54 projecting towards the front plate and two pointed spurs 56 which pass through apertures in the fixed belt end 14. The inner transverse edge of the slidable member has forwardly turned tabs 62 which abut against the slidable member 48 when the slidable members are drawn together by springs 50 which are connected to tongues 54 and 72 on the slidable members 46, 48 respectively. The slidable member 48 carries the anchoring pin 64 with which the apertured free end 16 of the belt is detachably connected, the pin being slightly angled to ensure that the belt is securely held. The cover slide plat 78 can be positioned on the rear of the buckle to cover the anchoring pin when the buckle is engaged, the cover plate being slid along the flanges while the buckle is fastened to uncover the anchoring pin. When the two ends of the belt are pulled in opposite directions the slidable members are pulled apart against the action of the springs to give resilience to the belt.

Method and apparatus for measuring residual rainfall
|
en
|
1486412 Measuring rainfall BESTEL-DEAN Ltd 11 Oct 1974 [12 July 1973] 33279/73 Heading G1N(A) Apparatus for measuring rainfall comprises a capacitor and means for supplying a predetermined change to the capacitor each time the increment of fallen rain equals a predetermined amount, a resistor across it, adjustable so that the rate of charge leakage through it is a function of the rate of rain dispersal, and means responsive to the resulting capacitor voltage indicating residual rainfall. The method is also claimed. Preferably the rain gauge comprises two buckets on a common pivot. When one bucket has a certain weight of rain it tips the arrangement to empty, to substitute the other bucket and operate a switch of a cricuit which causes a constant current generator to supply a predetermined amount of change which is adjustable to the capacitor, which is connected to high input impedance FET in an amplifier feeding an ammeter reading mm of rain, and a threshold detector, which causes a thyratrom to fire when the value exceeds that of a reference voltage, adjustable by a variable resistor, changing an output line from logic 1 to 0, which closes a relay setting off an alarm, or maintains it closed. A logic circuit on a second input to said relay only allows it to be operated immediately following the tipping of a bucket, and only when the voltage applied to the threshold detector falls below cut off level will the relay contacts open and reset the alarm. The above circuit can be for high intensity rain, with a second similar circuit for low intensity steady rain with the resistor across its capacitor adjusted to a different value, and operating a second alarm. The low intensity relay is inhibited by a logic circuit when the high intensity alarm is sounding. A plurality of such circuits having capacitors receiving charge increments may be used. Detailed diagrams and description of the circuit are given.

Process for the preparation of unsaturated fatty alcohols
|
en
|
Preparation of unsaturated fatty alcohols by the continuous hydrogenation of unsaturated fatty acids with 8 to 22 carbon atoms, or their esters with monohydric aliphatic alcohols, at elevated temperatures and pressure, with a large excess of hydrogen, in the presence of zinc-chromium or zinc-aluminium catalysts in tablet form, which have been subjected to a high-temperature treatment at 400-1000 DEG C. in a reducing atmosphere. The starting materials may be mono- or poly-unsaturated fatty acids occurring in natural fats or specified esters thereof particularly the readily volatile esters with C1- 4 monohydric alcohols such as methanol. The catalysts are obtained by mixing zinc oxide with aqueous chromic acid or with an aqueous suspension of chromic hydroxide, g -aluminium oxide or amorphous or crystalline aluminium hydroxides (the hydroxides preferably being freshly prepared); drying the slurry; forming the dried mixture into tablets; optionally roasting in air or oxygen when chromates are present in the mixture and, finally, heating at normal pressure for 1 to 10 hours at 400 DEG to 1000 DEG C. in hydrogen and/or carbon monoxide (e.g. derived in situ from methanol vapour). The unsaturated fatty acids or their esters are hydrogenated, optionally in the presence of monohydric alcohols having 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as methanol, substantially in the vapour phase at 250 DEG to 330 DEG C., 100 to 500 atmospheres and with 10 to 100 Nm3 of hydrogen per litre of material to be hydrogenated. The hydrogenation of oleic acid, methyl and iso-propyl oleate, soya bean fatty acid methyl ester and sperm oil to give the corresponding alcohols is described and the dependence of the activity of the catalyst on the mode of pretreatment is demonstrated by comparative examples.ALSO:Zinc-chromium or zinc-aluminium catalysts, preferably in tablet form, which have been subjected to high temperature treatment in a reducing atmosphere are obtained by mixing zinc oxide with aqueous suspensions of chromic oxide or hydroxide, g -aluminium oxide or amorphous or crystalline aluminium hydroxides (the hydroxides preferably being freshly prepared), drying the slurry, forming the dried mixture into tablets, optionally roasting in air or oxygen when chromates are present in the mixture, and then heating at normal pressure for 1 to 10 hr. at 400 DEG to 1000 DEG C. in hydrogen and/or carbon monoxide (e.g. derived in situ from methanol vapour). The preparation of catalysts from zinc oxide (8.1 Kg.) and chromium (VI) oxide (5 Kg.) or chromic hydroxide obtained by reducing chromium (VI) oxide (5 Kg.) with methanol, zinc oxide (1 Kg.) and amorphous or crystalline aluminium hydroxide (1 Kg.), g -aluminium oxide, aluminium hydroxide precipitated from Al2(SO4)3.18H2O (4.26 Kg.), or chromium (VI) oxide obtained by treating chromic sulphate (2.2 Kg.) with ammonium hydroxide.

1,158,074. Copying process. COLUMBIA RIBBON & CARBON MFG. CO. Inc. 21 July, 1967 [10 Oct., 1966], No. 33614/67. Heading B6C. [Also in Division D2] A copying process uses pressure-sensitive transfer paper that comprises a flexible foundation paper or plastics sheet carrying a transfer layer of synthetic thermoplastic resinous binder in which are dispersed uniformly solid discrete particles of a hectographic dye and discrete crystals or pulverized particles of a solid material that melts between 90 and 200 F. to form a solvent for the dye. The resinous binder may be a cellulose ether such as ethylcellulose, vinyl resin or acrylic resin; the dye may be triphenyl-methane or colourless colourforming reactants such as gallic acid and ferric chloride, or a carbinol or azo dye whose coreactants are included either in the transfer layer or on a copy sheet. The reactants do not react until heated to 90 to 200 F. and dissolved. Black iron oxide may also be present as an infrared absorber. Examples of dye solvents are triphenyl phosphate, soaps such as calcium stearate, metallic resinates and hard waxes. The composition may also include oily modifying agents for the binder material, such as rape-seed and mineral oils, that do not dissolve the solid dye and its solid potential solvent. A soft wax supercoating. of beeswax and microcrystalline wax containing polybutene resin, or a resinous binder supercoating such as chlorinated rubber, polyethylene or cellulose plastics material, may be applied. The transfer sheet is used to image a hectograph transfer sheet by typing, and copies made from the master by heating master and the copy sheet in contact with it to melt the dye solvent and dissolve the dye to form a coloured image on the copy sheet, or the master may be first heated and then brought into contact with each copy sheet while the dye solvent is still in melted condition. Preferably the master and copy sheets are exposed to infra-red radiation in a conventional exposure machine. Alternatively a heated platen or oven may be used.

1434433 Clutch control; reversing gearing ELITEX 18 July 1973 [8 Aug 1972] 34147/73 Headings F2L and F2D In an open-end yarn spinning machine wherein yarn withdrawing and winding rollers, 3, 4 respectively are driven through a gear-box 2 having a forward electromagnetic clutch 7 and a reverse electromagnetic clutch 8, the clutch 8 is operated by closure of a switch to return a selected length to a spinning chamber on breakage of the yarn and then the coil 10 of the forward clutch 7 is operated, after disengagement of clutch 8, through a circuit comprising a first voltage source 20, a second voltage source 13 and a pair of switches 17, 16 for selecting between these sources. In the embodiment shown a source 12 is used to charge up a capacitor 20 (forming the first source) and on closure of switch 17, switch 16 is also moved, from the capacitor-charging position shown, to discharge capacitor 20 through the coil via a resistor 19 and so close clutch 17. When capacitor 20 has discharged sufficiently the diode 18 allows the source 13 to maintain the clutch 7 in engagement, source 12 being of higher voltage than source 13. In an alternative embodiment (Fig. 2, not shown) there is no diode 18 and a changeover switch (11) automatically switches to the source 13 a predetermined time after closure of switch 17, source 12 where being permanently connected in parallel with a capacitor (15). The circuits for operating clutch 7 ensure that while the clutch 7 is braking the reverse rotation induced by clutch 8 it is overexcited to speed the process.

176,507. Burdon, C. B., (Wilson, W. G.). Dec. 8, 1920. Sliding-valves; rotary spherical v a l v e s ; seats. - Sliding and rotary spherical valves are arranged to work only between yielding parts, one of which consists of a yielding valve seating. As shown in Figs. 2 and 9, the valve member works between a tubular seat b which is yieldingly backed with elastic packing b<2>, and a tubular or perforated presserpiece c held against the valve by spring pressure. This arrangement permits the valve proper or its seat, or both, to be made of glass, porcelain, or other vitreous, ceramic, or brittle material so as to resist acids or corrosive liquids. The slide valve a, Fig. 2, is connected by a pin to a crosshead e<1> of the screwed valve spindle e<2> which is prevented from rotating by the guide-plates e<5>. The valve is guided at the lateral edges by guiderods. The tubular presser c is formed with external side pins c' engaged by a forked member g on a shaft g<1> which passes to the outside of the casing. An adjustable spring operates upon an external arm of the shaft g<1> to provide the spring pressure. In a modification the presser tube c Fig. 9, is wedge-shaped with the spring c<3> disposed within a removable cap. In another arrangement the spring is disposed coaxially around the tubular presser. The drawings also show the application of the seat and presser tube illustrated in Fig. 2 to a rotary spherical valve.

Optical-projection apparatus. applications of; prisms and like elements, rotating. - An intermittently rotated wheel 31 carrying transparencies 42 arranged round its rim in planes parallel to its axis is operated in timed relation to two light shutters. An actuating motor 12 is geared to a cam which moves a pawl acting on a ratchet on the wheel shaft, and a spring-retracted pawl 44 engages notches 43 in the wheel rim 32 to register the transparencies in the light beam. The transparencies are detachably mounted on the rim between posts 33, Fig. 6, comprising a halt-round portion slotted at 36 to receive a spring 37 and the tongue 38 of a securing bar 39, screws 40 passing through both parts being tightened by nuts 41 to grip the edges of the transparencies. The condenser 59 is contained within a rectangular box 57 having a hinged door. The lamp 68 is adjustably mounted on an insulating base 62, and the reflector 71 is also adjustable to effect arrangement of their relative positions so that heat reflected by the reflector 71 is not focused back on to the lamp filament. A removable perforated plate inserted in guides 96 on the box 57 assists in this adjustment. The light beam is interrupted during the change of transparency by two recessed shutters moved vertically in guides 81 by a. rock shaft 87 operated by a lever 93 actuated by a cam arranged alongside the cam which rotates the wheel 31. An oil reservoir is provided having pipes leading to the bearings &c.

1325234 Automatic rectroactive control EX-CELL-O CORP 26 July 1971 [28 Oct 1970] 34935/71 Heading G3R The speed of a tape storage reel, from which tape is transferred upon demand, is controlled by comparing a speed signal from the real drive means with a signal dependent on the demand to provide a control signal that switches the reel drive means between fully 'on' and fully 'off' conditions. A speed signal from tachometer 26, coupled to the reel drive motor 25a, and a tape demand signal from potentiometer 20, connected directly, or through linkages, to a dancer wheel (16) Fig.2 (not shown), which detects the tension in a tape loop, are fed to a comparator and operational amplifier 30, whose output is fed via a "dead zone" trigger 31, the threshold levels of which are determined by Zener diodes Z 1 Z 2 , to switching power amplifiers 32, that switch the motor 25a between the 'fully on' condition and the 'fully off' condition, where the drive means coasts, so as to maintain balance between tape supply and demand. The tachometer signal may be 1 volt per 200 rpm and the potentiometer signal 1 volt per 10 degrees of rotation. The above reel speed control system may be used in a system for feeding tape especially paper tape from a single reel e.g. to a reader, or from reel to reel, having an intermediate reader driven by a reluctance type stepping motor, each reel having its own control system.

Improvements in or relating to controlling the flow of molten glass through a furnace forehearth

832,120. Delivering molten glass. OWENSILLINOIS GLASS CO. Nov. 11, 1957 [Nov. 9, 1956], No. 35025/57. Class 56. In a forehearth having a channel through which molten glass is conveyed from a furnace to a mould-charge forming apparatus, a movable flow control element is disposed in the channel between the furnace and the forming apparatus and is moved by operating means which are actuated by means responsive to the level of molten glass in the channel in order to maintain a constant predetermined level of molten glass in the channel. As shown a horizontal forehearth 10, Fig. 1, is provided with a channel 11 through which molten glass 12 flows to a conventional gob feeder. The depth of glass in the forehearth and its rate of flow are controlled by a skimmer block 20 which extends downwards into the channel 11. The skimmer block 20 is raised and lowered by a piston motor 22 to which the block is connected by a horizontal lever 23 and screw-threaded telescopic connections. A vertically disposed probe 40, Fig. 3, extends downwards through a hole in the forehearth roof and carries at its lower end a platinum electrode 41 which makes electrical contact with the glass 12. The probe is periodically moved up and down by a motor 44, a rocker bar 411 and link connections 55 and 40c between paralell bars 42-43, the arrangement ensuring that the probe 40 is held vertical during its movements. Cooling fluid may be circulated through the probe. Temperature regulating devices 125 are provided to maintain the temperature of the molten metal in the forehearth at a constant level. The motor 44 not only controls the movement of the probe but also the operation of a pen driving motor of a recording instrument. When the electrode 41 makes contact with the glass the motor 44 is stopped momentarily and the pen driving motor is rotated to move the pen to a position corresponding to the level of the glass. Thus the position of the pen driving motor and its shaft depends upon the glass level. The electrical circuits are shown in Fig. 9. The motor 44 is two winding : application of power between points 2-4 drives the probe downward, and between points 2 and 5 drives the probe upward. Safety switch 151 opens by a cam when the probe reaches an extreme low position, and a similar uplimit safety switch 152 is also provided. Power is supplied from mains a and b. Voltage is supplied through a transformer T having its primary connected across a and b. The transformer T, rectifier tube 130 and condenser 131 constitute a full wave filtered power supply furnishing D.C. voltage for operating the rest of the electronic control unit, which includes relays R1, R2 and a thyratron 132. The contact arm 134 of a potentiometer 133 has a mechanical driving connection 135 with the motor 44 or the probe operated by it, the contact arm 134 oscillating about its pivot with the movement of the motor. The level of the glass in the forehearth is recorded by a recorder 136 operated under the control of motor 44 and potentiometer 133. This recorder includes a pen driving motor 137 and a clockwork operated chart driving motor 138. When the probe 41 touches the molten glass 12 there is a low resistance between the probe and the ground. As soon as the upward motion breaks contact the voltage across resistor 143 supplies a negative bias to the thyratron through resistors 147 and 146. Relay R2 is energised, its' cirucit being closed by contact 148 and contact bar 149, thyratron 132 and up limit switch 150. This limit switch opens on the upward stroke before the extreme limit switch 152 would open. Relay R1 is de-energised at the same time. As switch 150 opens the thyratron is cut off and breaks the circuit for relay R2. Contact bar 159 of relay R2 completes a circuit through lead 160 to point 4 of motor 44. The motor is reversed, probe 41 is driven downwards and limit switch 150 closes, the negative bias on the thyratron preventing energising of the relays R1 and R2. When the probe touches the hot glass the bias to the thyratron is reduced because the resistance between the probe and ground is lower than that of resistor 147. The thyratron conducts, energises relay R1 and charges condenser 161, and the contact bar 162 completes a circuit for relay R2 which operates so that the contact bar 154 opens the circuit of relay R1. Operation of R2 de-energises the downside of motor 44. The charge condenser 161 keeps R1 closed for a brief time, and as soon as this charge is dissipated R1 is de-energised. During the period that the circuit for R1 remains closed, motor 44 is stopped owing to contact bar 158 opening and the pen drive motor 137 is energised, the pen moving to a position corresponding to that of the arm 134 of the potentiometer, that is, to a position corresponding to the level of the glass at the probe tip. When relay R1 opens, contact bar 158 completes the circuit for the motor 44 to move the probe upwards and the cycle repeats. The automatic means by which the operation of the piston motor 22 is controlled by the movement of the pen drive shaft includes an air line control mechanism of known construction.

840,300. Bells. ERICSSON TELEPHONES Ltd. Nov. 1, 1958, No. 35128/58. Class 13. In a magneto bell in which two electromagnets 1 and a permanent magnet 10 are secured by means of a yoke member 5 to form an E-shaped construction, on the free end of the middle limb of which a substantially flat armature 15 is pivoted by a cylindrical pin 14 passing through the limb and the armature, the pin being retained in position by a clip 17, the permanent magnet 10 forms part only of the middle limb. One end of the core 2 of each electromagnet 1 is formed into a circular polepiece 4 and the other end, which is threaded, passes through a hole in the yoke 5 and is retained by a nut 6. The yoke 5 includes a flat rectangular projecting arm 7 provided with two slotted holes which accommodate two brass screws 9. The screws 9 pass through holes in the channel-shaped member 12 and screw into tapped holes in the long limb 19 of a hook-shaped member 11 of mild steel strip, the member 12 clamping the rectangular permanent magnet 10 between the arm 7 and the limb 19. The hooked end 13 of the member 11 has a circular hole in each limb 19 and 20 to accommodate the cylindrical pin 14 on which the armature 15 is pivoted, each ear 27 of the armature 15 having a non-magnetic bush 16 through which the pin 14 passes. The pin 14 has a circumferential slot at each end which co-operates with the corresponding bifurcated end of the U-shaped clip 17. The central portion 21 of the hooked end 13 of member 11 is bent to provide a camber the two plane faces of which are inclined towards the polepieces 4, and the positions of screws 9 in the slotted holes are adjusted so that the spacing of the armature 15 from the polepieces 4 is such that physical contact between the armature 15 and the cambered face of member 11 is prevented when the armature 15 is tilted to co-operate with either of the polepieces 4. A thin resilient rod 25 is welded to the free end of the projection 23, fastened to one free end of the clip 17, so as to be substantially parallel to the striker 18 mounted on the armature 15. The free end of the rod 25 is placed within a selected one of a number of slots 26 provided in a flat rectangular member 24, secured to the yoke 5 by nuts 6, so as to bias the armature 15 towards one or the other of the polepieces 4. The U-shaped clip 17 may be replaced by two circlips.

884,840. Photographic silver halide emulsions. AGFA A.G. Oct. 16, 1959 [Oct. 16, 1958], No. 35152/59. Class 98(2). Photographic emulsions are prepared by precipitating an aqueous gelatine silver halide dispersion by means of a water-soluble polystyrene sulphonic acid or salt thereof at a pH of 6 or less, separating the coagulum and redispersing it in an aqueous liquid. The polystyrene compound may first be added to the silver halide dispersion, or included in one of the solutions from which the dispersion is formed, and then the pH adjusted to 6 or below. Alternatively, the pH of the dispersion may be adjusted before the polystyrene compound is added. The flocculation is assisted by the presence of heavy metal salts such as the chlorides or bromides of cadmium or copper. The redispersion in water may be effected by adjusting the pH to between 6 and 10 and more gelatine or other colloid can be added to the resulting emulsion. The quantity of polystyrene compound used may be more than is necessary to effect precipitation so that it replaces some of the gelatin as the colloid binder. The usual adjuvants including colour couplers may be added to the emulsions before coating; or the colour coupler may be incorporated before precipitation with the polystyrene compound. Specifications 648,472 and 651,318 are referred to.

In a method of controlling the temperature of a region, a mass of known thermal properties is controllably heated or cooled and the temperature difference between the mass and the region is determined which difference controls the temperature of the region which is independently heated or cooled to reduce the temperature difference towards zero. Alternatively the region may be initially brought to a determined temperature, and the mass heated or cooled until the determined temperature is reached. A circulatory air oven 1 has an air heater 2 connectable by a switch SW1a, b through lines 5, 6 to a controller (not shown) which maintains the oven 1 at a determined temperature. Mounted within the oven 1 is a lagged enclosure 9 with a heater 8 connectable over a switch SW2a, b to a differential amplifier A1 and a supply 11, and a mass 7, in the form of a one inch metal cube, attached to a junction 12 of a thermocouple, the other junction 13 of which is in the oven at a suitable point. The thermocouple is connectable through a switch SW3a, b to the input of amplifier A1 or a pre-amplifier A2 connected to an amplifier A3, the output of which is taken through switch SW1a. With the switches in the position shown, oven 1 may be brought and maintained to a determined temperature, say 200‹ C. and amplifier A1 will supply power to heater 8 to bring it to the temperature sensed by thermocouple element 13. With the switches reversed the mass may then be arranged to increase at a determined rate e.g. 4‹C. per minute, hence the oven temperature will follow this until another determined temperature e.g. 400‹ C. is reached. The switches will then be reverted to the position shown when the oven temperature will be maintained at 400‹ C. The oven is stated to have applications in gas chromatography, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential thermal analysis. The current supply and amplifiers may be replaced by any suitable arrangement. The mass may be a pure metal, an alloy, or a non-metallic substance in the solid liquid or gaseous state. The switches may be operated automatically.

470,060. Directive wireless signalling. SOC. FRANCAISE RADIO-ELECTRIQUE. Dec. 30, 1936, No. 35752. Convention date, Dec. 30, 1935. [Class 40 (v)] A direct-reading radiogoniometer comprises a vertical aerial A, Fig. 1, and two fixed frames C, C1, set at right-angles, the signal voltage from the latter being periodically reversed, or suppressed, by a pair of diodes V1, V2, shunted across the tuned circuits CV1, CV2. The diodes are energized in phase-quadrature at U, U1 from a two-phase alternator, and give the same effect as if the frames were rotating. After passing through amplifiers E1, E2, the frame voltages are combined with the pick-up from the aerial A in a common circuit CV3, which is coupled at G to further amplifiers feeding a phase indicator. The effect of the diodes is to damp the circuits CV1, CV2 alternately, and thus cut down or suppress the energy passed to the amplifiers through first one and then the other of the two coupling condensers C2. Fig. 2 shows an alternative method of coupling the aerials to the common combining circuit, and of reversing or suppressing the frame voltages so as to give the effect of constant rotation. A pair of diodes V1, V1 and V2, V2 are inserted in series with each of the two transformer secondaries, the two sections of which are wound in opposite directions. One or other of the diodes is put out of action as its cathode is thrown positive by the low-frequency voltage developed across the windings U1, U2. Both frames are coupled to the same tuned circuit CV3. In another modification, each of the transformers has five windings, one of these forming part of the common tuned circuit.

1,253,993. Hydraulic reciprocating-piston pumps and motors. HYDRAULIC-DRIVE A.G. July 1, 1969 [July 27, 1968(2)], Nos. 35958/68 and 35960/68. Heading F1A. In a pump, or motor, a rotary member 20 has radial bosses 35 defining cylinders 36 for spring-loaded pistons 40, a slipper 45 for each piston having a socket engaging a part-spherical element 44 and abutting a cam ring 47, which is pivotally supported by a pin 48 so that its eccentricity can be varied by a rod 51. The working fluid e.g. oil, is supplied to and discharged from the cylinders through passages 29, 30 in a casing 10, passages 27, 28, 31, 32 in a fixed pintle 25 supporting the member 20, and passages 38 in said member. Lubrication of the slippers is effected by a proportion of the working fluid flowing through passages 60, 61 into distribution grooves in the outer faces adjacent the cam ring, Figs.3 and 4 (not shown). A power input, or output, shaft 13 carries a pulley 14 and is coupled to the member 20 by a flexible member 17. Shoulders 75, 76 prevent lateral movement of the slippers and thereby obviate appreciable axial-displacement of the member 20 along the pintle.

448,675. Drying bricks and the like. MONNIER, J. B., 2, Route de Provence, Gap, Hautes-Alpes, France. Dec. 30, 1935, No. 35962. Convention date, Jan. 17. [Class 34 (ii)] [See also Group X] Ceramic products, particularly bricks or tiles made of clay of small capillarity and high shrinkage, are dried in two phases ; in the first, they are dried slowly and progressively by the intermittent circulation of hot air ; in the second, they are dried intensely by the continuous circulation of hot air. As shown, the plant. comprises two tunnels 1, 2 arranged in line, with a shorter, final, drying tunnel 6 between them. Goods to be dried are entered, on wagons 3, into the tunnels 1, 2 by doors 4, 5 and advanced intermittently towards the tunnel 6, from which the dried goods are removed by doors 19, 19<1>. A fan 7 draws air through an adjustable opening 8 and forces it through a heater 9, the heated air circulating by either of the paths indicated by the arrows 18, 18<1> according to the setting of the dampers 12, 13. The latter are reversed periodically, so that the heated air always passes through the tunnel 6 and alternately through the tunnel 1 or 2. Hot air from the cooling zone of the plant, or from a furnace, may be drawn in by the fan 7. Moist air may be discharged through dampers 17, 171.

801,547. Automatic fluid level control systems. PROPERZI, I. Dec. 16, 1955 [Dec. 31, 1954], No. 36195/55. Class 38 (4). In a system for automatically controlling the level of the surface of molten metal in a continuous casting machine the mould is formed by a channel round the circumference of a rotating wheel and a strip of material wrapped round a portion of the circumference, and changes in temperature of liquid sprayed on the outside of the strip are utilized to control the speed of the wheel through an electric control system. In Fig. 2 a continuous casting mould, e.g. for aluminium bar, is formed between a channel round the circumference of a rotating wheel 12 and a strip 32 which meets the wheel tangentially and encloses a portion of the circumference. The molten metal is supplied through a nozzle 31 and the wheel is rotated at such a speed that the level of the molten metal remains approximately at the point where strip 32 meets wheel 12. The level of molten metal is detected by spraying fluid from a conduit 33 on to the outside of strip 31 and arranging two thermocouples 20, 21 or alternatively two temperature-variable resistors so that one of them is associated with boiling fluid and the other is not when the level is correct. Deviation of the level from the desired position affects the relative temperatures of the thermocouples or temperaturevariable resistors and a potentiometer (not shown) is arranged to be set automatically to a corresponding position. This potentiometer is associated with limit switches which when operated start an electric motor to maintain the level of molten metal between limits by adjusting a variable-speed gear in the drive to wheel 12. A clutch is provided between the motor and variable-speed gear to permit manual adjustment of the latter.

A clamping and mounting device for transformers or the like having a magnetic core 3 partly surrounding the windings 2 comprises two shells 4, 5, each of which wholly and closely surrounds one end of the core 3, the two shells meeting and overlapping at the middle of the transformer and finally mechanically interlocking with each other. The shells are similar to each other and each comprise an end piece 4 and two side pieces 8 which are at right angles to the end piece 4. The edges 4<SP>1</SP>, 6 of the pieces 4, 8 are bent inwardly at right-angles so that the shell when pushed over the core clamps the laminations thereof together or grips it if it is of a compacted powder construction. The edge of the shell which meets the other shell is formed with a shaped edge such as shown at 9 so that after meeting a corresponding edge and passing over it the corresponding edges finally snap back into the same plane, thereby becoming interlocked with one another. The shells may be stamped from a metal sheet or may be of a moulded plastic construction. Mounting lugs 10-13 are formed integrally with the shells. After assembly the shells may, if desired, be soldered together along the edges marked X.

1,033,176. Hydraulic brakes. BARMER MASCHINENFABRIK A.G. Sept. 17, 1963 [Sept. 19, 1962], No. 36554/63. Heading F2F. In a method of hydraulic braking heavy-load vehicles a brake lever 29 is loaded to produce a control pressure in chamber 32 of a braking pressure governor 27 which pressure acts on a spring-loaded piston 33 to open a valve 9 to permit pressure fluid to flow via ducts 8, 39 from a pressure storage device 7 to a brake cylinder 40. The braking pressure acts via duct 54 on piston 35 integral with piston 33 to oppose the control pressure and close valve 9 so as to regulate the braking pressure according to the control pressure. The control pressure also acts on a piston 49 of a return-flow governor and when the braking lever is released to reduce or eliminate the control pressure the valve 46 opens to permit the braking pressure to be released via duct 25 to a storage container 1. The pressure storage device 7 is fed from the container 1 by a piston pump 3 acting through a non-return valve 5. A storage pressure governor 12 acts to limit the pressure of device 7, a device 21 damping the pressure peaks from the pump 3. Other embodiments of braking pressure governors are described.

1,143,055. Angular bending. HAMMERLE A.G. MASCHINENFABRIK. 10 Aug., 1967 [19 Aug., 1966], No. 36673/67. Heading B3E. A bending machine has a work-table and a movable ram, each having a tool-holder on which are mounted several tools, which can be moved from a stand-by to an operative position, the tool-holder associated with the work-table being a movable carriage and being characterized in that a support bar is provided which is pivotable between a stand-by position and an operative position in which it co-operates with one of the tools on the work-table toolholder to form a doubled-over bend in a work-piece, and a means for controlling the support bar mounted in the path of movement of the tool-holder on the work-table. The machine comprises a work-table 1 on which a tool-holder carriage 2 is movable in the direction of the arrows 3. Two bottom dies 6, 7 are mounted on the carriage, their positions being adjustable by wedges 5. A movable ram carries tools 15, 16 and 17 any of which can be brought into the operative position. The support bar 18 has a surface 19 which co-operates with a surface 20 on the die 7, and is keyed to a shaft which is rotatably mounted in the tool-holder. Secured to the ends of the shaft are control arms 21, which as the carriage moves from left to right engage resilient stops 22 which rotate the control arms and lift the surface 19 from the surface 20. Operation.-To form a doubled-over bend in a sheet metal workpiece, the tool 15 is used to form two right-angled bends and then the tool 17 and the die 6 together form the workpiece to the shape shown in Fig. 5. The carriage is moved to bring the die 7 under the ram, the control arms 21 lifting the support bar 18. The partially formed double-bend is placed under the support bar, as shown in Fig. 6, and the tool 16 is brought to the operative position. As the tool 16 descends it engages the upper surface of the workpiece and acts through the workpiece on the bar 18 and hence on the double-bend. The resilient stops 22 permit the downward movement of the free ends of the control arms 21.

1,159,764. Rechargeable fuel cell. GENERAL MOTORS CORP. 10 Aug., 1967 [7 Nov., 1966], No. 36790/67. Heading H1B. A fuel cell comprises an electrode assembly in which: a reservoir holds a liquid reactant and an electrolyte electrolytically dissociable into the liquid reactant and a gaseous reactant; an electrically conductive penetrable element in a wall of the reservoir and in contact with the cell electrolyte provides communication between the inside and outside of the reservoir; a path admits electrolyte to the reservoir during discharge, so permitting the liquid reactant to remain in contact with the penetrable element; an electrically conducting conduit extends from below the electrolyte level in the reservoir to a point above the cell electrolyte and forms an " air-lift " type pump during recharging, so maintaining a pressure drop across the penetrable element towards the reservoir interior, the conduit being insulated from the reservoir and connected electrically to the electrode generating the gaseous reactant during recharge. In the Li/LiCl/Cl 2 cell illustrated the cell container 1 is of carbon lined with ceramic 16 in a stainless steel casing 2; during discharge Cl 2 is supplied to the annular electrode 11 and Li floats in the molten LiCl against the penetrable element 5 which defines with a stainless steel casing the reservoir 3 which is electrically connected to the outer casing 2; as Li is consumed LiCl enters the reservoir through element 5 or via a capillary. The carbon tube 4 is insulated from the reservoir and cell electrolyte by a ceramic layer 9 and lined with a ceramic layer 6 which is wet by LiCl; during discharge Cl 2 is generated at the exposed base of tube 4 which is connected to the chlorine electrode via carbon container 1 and forms a " gas-lift " pump; the pressure differential across element 5 ensures that Li there formed is retained inside the reservoir. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 1,123,133.

946,465. Hydrofoil vessels. G. PIAZZA. Oct. 26, 1960 [Nov. 16, 1959], No. 36825/60. Heading B7A. An hydrofoil 10 (Fig. 5) is secured to one arm 2 of a lever pivoted at 4 so that the lift acts behind the pivot. The lift is balanced by a spring 7 at the end of the other arm of the lever, with the result that, if the lift increases, the incidence of the hydrofoil is reduced, or, if the lift decreases, the incidence is increased. The hydrofoil may be inclined upwardly, outwardly and forwardly as in Fig. 8, so that as the depth of immersion increases, and the waterline rises from N-N to A-A the centre of lift changes from n to a and the moment arm of the lift is reduced from x to z. Conversely, as the water line falls, the moment arm is increased. Hydrofoil units in the same transverse plane on opposite sides of the craft may be connected together. A water craft may be supported by two or more pairs of hydrfoils (see Figs. 9-12, not shown).

1317757 Centrifugal pumps WORTHINGTON CORP 30 July 1970 [31 July 1969] 36892/70 Heading F1C A single-inlet centrifugal pump of the type in which change of direction is imparted to fluid before it reaches the impeller comprises means adapted to effect a distribution of streams of sucked fluid along a substantially circumferential or spiral path with respect to the impeller axis, to effect a uniform inward deviation of the streams radially towards the axis and subsequently gradually and continuously to withdraw the fluid streams and convey them to the impeller in the direction of the axis in such manner that tangential velocity components are removed and a substantially uniform distribution of the axial velocity of the streams is effected. Liquid enters the pump via a volute 10 having a tangential inlet (not shown), the cross-sectional area of the volute being reduced progressively in the direction of rotation of the liquid about the volute axis by means of a reduction of either the radial depth of the volute or, as shown, the axial dimension. The liquid is progressively withdrawn from the volute through at least one row of blading 14 which produces a radially inward and axial deflection. As shown, the impeller (not shown) may be preceded by an inducer rotor 21. A chamber 15, exhausted via a port 17, may be provided for collecting gas and vapour from the liquid via an annular gap 16 between two castings 18, 19.

902,092. Fluid actuation of switches. TRICOFOLBERTH Ltd. Dec. 1, 1958 [Nov. 29, 1957], No. 37326/57. Class 38 (5). [Also in Group XXIII] A co-ordinating device for causing operation of the windscreen wiper when a windscreen washer is operated comprises a casing 2 through which the washing liquid flows via nipples 6, 8 in its passage from a pump to a washer nozzle, and which contains a piston 10 movable by the pressure of the washing liquid, against the action of a spring 22, to actuate a switch comprising a metal ring 16 on the piston stem 12 adapted to complete the circuit between contacts 18 to energize the wiper motor. During the movement of the piston 10 by the pressure of washing liquid air is discharged from the casing 2 through a non-return valve comprising a spring-pressed valve disc 26. When the liquid discharge by the washer is discontinued the piston 10 is returned by the spring 22 at a speed controlled by the rate of entry of air into the casing 2 through an adjustable needle valve (not shown). Thus, the wiper is not stopped until some little time after the operation of the washer has ceased. The washer pump may be replaced by a device operated by compressed-air as described in Specification 866,218. As a further alternative, the nipples 6, 8 may be replaced by a single nipple connected by a hose to a point in a path for liquid from the supply to the nozzle.

1,241,565. Hydromechanical transmissions. VOITH GETRIEBE KG. 5 Aug., 1968 [5 Aug., 1967], No. 37326/68. Heading F2C. In a hydromechanical transmission in which a number of different arrangements can be obtained from standard units, a mechanical gear input 6, 9 is coupled to a pair of hydraulic torque converters I, II, of different capacities, and either of which can be connected to the transmission output. The main external gear casing 5 is made symmetrical about the central plane 8 of the input gear unit and is formed with identical side bores 3, 3<SP>1</SP> so that either of them can accommodate the input shaft 1. The hydraulic converters which have common primary and secondary shafts 10, 11, are mounted in a common casing 12, the ends of which have bores 19, 20 of the same size so that either can accommodate the output shaft 18, while spigots 15, 16 can be inserted in either of identical bores 13, 14 in the external casing 5 to allow output drive in either direction.

909,940. Crimping thermoplastic filaments. EASTMAN KODAK CO. Nov. 21, 1958 [Nov. 27, 1957 (2); Aug. 28, 1958], No. 37482/58. Class 15(2). [Also in Group IX] Uniformly crimped tow is made by spinning continuous thermoplasfic filaments of a denier not greater than 16 per filament, gathering the filaments together to form a band of substantially uniform width and thickness and a total denier not greater than 160,000, imparting to the band a crimp not less than 8 crimps per inch, and applying to the filaments at a stage before the crimping operation a non-toxic lubricant comprising an emulsion containing at least one sorbitan compound. Suitable sorbitan compounds are the monolaurate, mono oleate, monopalmitate, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan mono-oleate or laurate; the emulsion is an aqueous one with white mineral oil or polyoxyethylene castor-oil derivative applied by a ceramic or metal roller which may be roughened or provided with a groove in which the filaments travel, and the amount applied may be controlled by a doctor-blade, by arranging the roller to deflect the path of the filaments through an arc which is varied as required, or by varying the speed of the roller, which may rotate oppositely to the direction of travel of the filaments. The emulsion may also be applied by a wick or surface to which the supply may be metered.

855,099. Walking-beam conveyers for furnaces. HEURTEY & CIE. Dec. 3, 1957 [Dec. 7, 1956], No. 37566/57. Class 51 (2). [Also in Group XXX] Tubes and other articles of substantially circular cross-section are transported by a conveyer having notched beams which is driven by mechanism capable of being adjusted during operation for the purpose of effecting rotation without conveyance. The conveyer consists of fixed beams 1 and one or more walking beams 2. The beams 2 rest on rollers 8 supported on the upper ends 7 of connecting rods 3. Each part 7 is connected pivotally to one end of a jack device 10, the other end of which is connected pivotally to a bracket 11 depending from a walking beam 2. By actuating the jack 10 from a remote position, the position of the beam 2 can be changed with respect to the rod 3 during the operation of the conveyer.
