Patent GB-1302112-A (GB)
IPC: B23Q3/155
Filed: 1970-04-06
Abstract: 1302112 Tool changers CINCINNATI MILLING MACHINE CO 6 April 1970 [10 April 1969] 16140/70 Heading B3B In a numerically controlled machine tool having a vertically movable saddle which carries a horizontally movable spindle head 21 and a tool storage rack 23, a tool interchanger 24 is provided to exchange tools between a spindle 22 and an interchange position 25. The interchanger 24 comprises a base 26 in which is mounted a housing 27 which is rotatable through 180 degrees about an axis A-A. This axis A-A lies in a common plane with the axis of the spindle 22 and the axis of a tool in the interchange position 25 and is at a substantial angle to both of these axes. On each side of the housing 27 is mounted an arm 28, 29 which is pivotable about a hinge axis B-B at right angles to the axis A-A. Each of the arms 28, 29 include clamps made up of pivotable fingers 97, 98 and 102, 103 for gripping a tool holder. During a tool interchange a tool holder is gripped at the spindle and position 25 and in a continuous operation, with simultaneous movements each tool holder is gripped by the clamps, the arms 28, 29 initially move towards each other about axis B-B, the housing 27 is rotated 180 degrees about axis A-A during the latter part of which the arms 28, 29 move away from each other in the reverse direction, and at the end of the movements the clamps release the tool holders. The movements are all operated by a single hydraulically operated piston 31. The clamps are operated by a direct drive of a pinion 33 engaging with a rack 32 formed on the piston 31. The pinion 33 rotates a shaft 34, bevel gears 37, 38 and a cam plate 41 which reciprocates a plunger 89 to pivot the fingers 97, 98. Rotation of the shaft 34 also rotates a plate 79 and a slotted drive-plate arrangement 62. Separate slide members 75 on each side of plate arrangement 62 move in slots across the said arrangement 62 as it is rotated by the action of followers 67, 78 which engage in fixed cam grooves 59, 61. Movement of the slides 75 cause rotation of gears 47 and 71 to pivot the arms about axis B-B, and to rotate the housing about axis A-A.

Title: Improvements in the manufacture of a cream substitute
IPC: A23L9/20
Filed: 1942-11-18
Abstract: A cream substitute is prepared by emulsifying an edible vegetable or animal oil or fat base, e.g. an oil of the leguminos  group such as hardened or unhardened arachis or soya bean oil, an oil of the palm group such as hardened or unhardened palm kernel or coconut oil, processed butter fat, hardened whale oil, premier jus or oleo oil, with an aqueous serum containing a vegetable flour, e.g. a flour derived from the Glycin  group such as soya bean flour, preferably the brand known as "Trusoy," or from the Graminos  family, particularly from the Secale group such as rye, or from the Avena group such as oats, stabilizing the emulsion with a harmless ionizable inorganic compound such as a salt of a tribasic acid, e.g. a phosphate or citrate, and incorporating an edible vegetable gum such as Gum Kuraya or a marine vegetable gum, preferably an alginate such as the sodium alginate known under the Registered Trade Mark "Manucol."  A harmless chloride such as common salt, glyceryl monostearate, a phosphatide such as lecithin, a substance rich in vitamins, particularly vitamins A and D, colouring and flavouring may also be incorporated.  In an example, the aqueous serum is prepared by dispersing a mixture of soya flour, disodium hydrogen orthophosphate, common salt and Gum Kuraya in water, adding glyceryl monostearate and a dilute solution of HCl to adjust the pH to approximately 7 and pasteurizing.  A fat base consisting of hardened arachis oil, lecithin and mixed colouring and flavouring of the kind described in Specification 555,361 is injected into the serum and the resulting emulsion is pasteurized, cooled, homogenized and allowed to mature substantially as described in the above-mentioned specification.

Abstract: 1,059,483. Travelling-band filters. EMICO CORPORATION. April 20, 1964 [May 1, 1963], No. 16332/64. Heading BID. A travelling band filter medium 14 (Fig. 3 not shown) is entrained, between a vacuum drum (1) where it picks up filter cake (20) and a discharge roll (16), over a rotatable roll 15 having a concave support surface, whereby the edge portions of band 14 move further than the centre portion to compensate for centre sag under the weight of cake 20 (Fig. 4, not shown). The roll 15 may comprise two frusto conical members 24, axially adjustable on central shaft 21, with set screws 26. Additional adjustment of the concavity of roll 15 is achieved by changing the members 24 for others of different taper. Drum 11 rotates in a slurry tank and drives the band 14. Roll 15 may replace discharge roll (16).

Title: Improvements in or relating to brushes
IPC: A46B3/16
Filed: 1922-06-15
Abstract: 203,797. Bateman, M., Bateman, J., Lee, W. R., and Squire, E. V. June 15, 1922. Bristles, fixing. - A brush comprises one or more plates or discs having means for retaining the bristles in looped bunches, and clips to grip the looped portion of each bunch. In the construction shown in Fig. 2, a plate 1 is provided with integral clips 2 and an integral flange 3, the latter being perforated, notched or slotted to embrace bristle-tufts 4, the loops of which are held by the clips 2. In a modification, the plate mav be of inverted channel section and adapted to hold two rows of tufts. A number of plates may be arranged parallel to each other in a recessed stock, and clamped by a flanged casing of channel section provided with an end wall. In the construction shown in Fig. 6, the stock 13 of the brush is made from sheet metal and tongues 15, preferably formed by being pressed inwardly from the sides of the stock, are adapted to grip looped bristle-tufts passed through perforations or slots in terminal flanges 14. A paint or like brush, Fig. 7, comprises a strip 18 bent to form a ring and provided with inwardlypressed tongues 20 co-operating with perforations in a flange formed on the lower edge of the ring to hold the bristles. The top of the ring is provided with a flange which cuts into and grips the handle when the latter is pulled upwardly through the ring. The stock of a rotary brush may be formed from a number of coaxial plates or discs, one of which is partly shown in Fig. 8. The disc is provided with a peripheral flange 22 perforated to locate bristle-tufts which are held within loops formed on radially-disposed clips 23. Instead of a continuous flange, the edge of the disc may be provided with spaced tongues bent at right-angles to the plane of the disc. Both constructions may be modified by the use of clips integral with the disc and comprising radial strips pressed out and bent to form loops. In a further modification, a number of units, each comprising a clip and a perforated flange, are arranged radially around the disc, on one or both sides. In the construction shown in Fig. 13, the edge of the disc is slotted to form tongues 24 which are perforated and are made to project alternately from the two sides of the disc, and corresponding clips 25 are pressed out and bent, each clip co-operating with two of the tongues 24 to hold a tuft of bristles. This construction may be modified by having only one tongue associated with a clip. A rotary brush may comprise a number of interengaging discs with tongues projecting alternately from either side, the discs being mounted on a hub between a pair of end disc provided with a continuous flange or with tongues bent inwardly. In the construction shown in Fig. 19, the discs are mounted on a wooden hub 29 and clamped between a flange 33 and an endplate 32 by a nut 31 screwed on a spindle 30.
