Title: Improvements in fuzes for bombs and the like
IPC: F42C15/295
Filed: 1944-02-07
Abstract: 576,350. Bomb fuzes. MIDGLEY, A. H. Feb. 7, 1944, No. 2270. [Class 9 (i)] A multi-directional fuze after arming is actuated on impact by displacement of a member h within a sleeve f lightly held before impact only by contact of its flange h<1> with balls g, the latter normally holding in position the sleeve f by means of apertures in the sleeve and corresponding recesses in the body a of the fuze. The sleeve f holds from operation the firing mechanism which may consist of a spring-loaded striker b resting on balls c restrained from moving sideways by the flange d' of a sleeve d held between the body of the fuze and the sleeve f. The member h is initially locked by a screwed pin i engaging the member h and the body of the fuze with threads of equal pitch. When the fuze is attached to a bomb, the cap m and safety plate e<1> are removed and the fly-nut k on the end of the pin i coupled to a propeller shaft in the tail unit of the bomb. On release of the bomb, the pin i is thus withdrawn, leaving the member h held only by its contact with the balls g. On impact, the member h is jerked free from the balls g which are thus released, allowing the spring e to displace the sleeves d and f, thus releasing the balls c restraining the striker b. A detent l engaging a slot in the flange h<1> of the member h prevents the latter turning when the pin i is withdrawn.

Title: Electrode for measuring co2 tension in blood and other liquid and gaseous environments
IPC: G01N27/30
Filed: 1972-01-21
Abstract: 1368561 Electro-chemical analysis GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 21 Jan 1972 [29 Jan 1971] 3039/72 Heading G1N The invention relates to the construction, storage and calibration of a probe for in vivo monitoring of CO 2  in blood. It is stated to be applicable also to monitoring of:- fermentation activity; spacecraft rebreather systems; flue and exhaust gases. Probe construction:- comprises a concentric arrangement with a coating of PALLADIUM or IRIDIUM OXIDE on a central electrode wire or palladium or iridium (or a 5% gold or platinum alloy thereof or a Pd or Ir coating on a base metal wire). This is surrounded by an insulating sleeve 23, and silver tube (or alternatively a spiral of silver wire), with an Ag/AgCl coating towards the tip. These electrodes are dipped in an electrolyte of NaHCO 3 +NaCl (with surfactants and thickening agents if necessary) to provide an adhering electrolyte layer, and the whole probe is encapsulated in an insulating and CO 2  permeable layer of e.g. silicone polycarbonate block copolymer, as by dipping in a solution e.g. in chloroform or methylene chloride. The probe has a plastic cap and boss to mate with a canula inserted in a blood vessel Fig.1 (not shown). The soldering of a coaxial cable to the probe is described with reference to Figs.3 and 4 (not shown). Storage:- The completed probe is inserted in a plastic tubular casing of e.g. polypropylene or other material permeable to CO 2 , Fig.6 (not shown) and containing a saline solution or electrolyte similar to that in the probe, and may then be sterilized by gamma radiation. The encased probes are stored in a container with a CO 2  atmosphere at the expected partial pressure of the blood gas Fig.8 (not shown). Calibration: - The probe is calibrated in its plastic tube in which the CO 2  in the fluid will remain equilibrated at the expected partial pressure for a short while after removal from the storage container. The balancing potentiometer in the amplifier/meter circuit is adjusted to read this known "storage pressure." The probe is maintained at body-temperature in a heated socket in the meter during calibration Fig.9  (not shown).

The upper is made of soft leather textile fabric, or similar flexible material, The sole consists of two layers of leather, rubber or the like c, with an inside layer f of fabric pasted therein. The insole i may be of leather, rubber, or the like. A flange k overlies the upper as shown. At the front and rear portions of the insole there are grooves m, Fig. 5, which overlap the sections of the upright edge g of the outersole. First the stiffened edge b of the upper is inserted in the groove of the edge g of the outsole. Then the insole is introduced and pushed up to the front. The wires b, d, thus engage the groove m. The rear parts are then engaged by pushing up the centre of the insole. Finally the sides of the insole are engaged. In a women's shoe, Fig. 7, there are thin layers c in the sole and a heel may be provided. As the upper is flexible, it may be turned when soiled or worn. If the shoes are not symmetrical, a turned upper is used on the other foot and vice versa. A plurality of different coloured layers a, Fig. 9, may be used. In this case four layers are shown giving eight different surfaces on turning. Repairing is facilitated.

Title: Improvements in truing devices for grinding wheels
IPC: B24B53/12
Filed: 1950-02-10
Abstract: 678,813. Trueing grinding wheels. KOGANOVITCH, D. May 7, 1951 [Feb. 10, 1950], No. 3440/50. Class 60. A trueing device for grinding wheels comprises a diamond set in a tool shank 1, a tool head 2, a rotatable sleeve 3 in the tool head to receive the shank, means for determining two circumferential positions of the sleeve in the head, and means for securing the shank and. sleeve in position in the head. In the illustrated construction, the diamond is a octahedron and the cross-sectional shape of the shank is square so that successive edges of the diamond may be brought to operative position by removing the shank from its sleeve, rotating it through 90 degrees and replacing it. Diamonds which are not octahedrons may be used if a corresponding. shape of shank is chosen. When a complete rotation of the diamond has been made, the sleeve is rotated relatively to the head through an angle equal to half that between two adjacent faces of the shank so that further rotation of the shank from face to face will present edges of the diamond midway between those which have already been used. To secure the shank, the head and sleeve are split longitudinally to form a clamp which can be tightened by a bolt 5. The angle through which the sleeve is rotated is determined either by reference marks or by a slot 4 in the sleeve which co-operates with a bolt 7 in the head. The latter is secured by a set screw 6 to a base plate 8 which may be held by the magnetic chuck of a surface grinder.
