Title: A storage structure for loading and supporting articles in a vehicle
IPC: B60P3/05
Filed: 1961-02-28
Abstract: 919,003. Overhead runways in vehicles. LEARMONT, R. K., and WILLIAMS, C. J. Feb. 28, 1961 [March 7, 1960], No. 7289/61. Class 78 (4). Articles, for example carcases, are supported in a vehicle by members 37 (Fig. 2) which move transversely of the vehicle on rails 32 which in turn are supported by carriages running on rails 8. In the form illustrated the carriages are moved to the rear of the vehicle, where they are secured by hook members 25, when the members 37, shown as trolleys for supporting carcases, are to be run off on to a rail at the loading bay. The carriages can be run off the rails 8 on to registering rails in the bay when a pawl 39 (Fig. 5) is lifted. In the alternative arrangement of Fig. 8 a portion of rail 58 secured at the rear of the vehicle feeds the trolleys to and from the rail 50. To effect this transfer the carriage 49 must be moved to a lower portion 42 (Fig. 6) of its rails connected to the main portion 43 by a slope 45. The curved portion 60 (Fig. 8) of the rail 58 is pivoted about a hinge 62 when carriages 9 are to be run off the rails. A stud 66 on the curved portion 60 pushes aside a switch 51 on the rail 50. A socket in a bracket 67 receives a stud 57 on the rail 50 to locate the curved rail 60.

Abstract: 609,342. Permutation locks. MASHEDER, P. R. March 12, 1946, No. 7613. [Class 44] A permutation lock comprises a casing consisting of a base 1, and a cover 2 with openings in the side and apertures in the front, having interposed between them a slidably-mounted spring-controlled bolt 4, tongues 5 on which co-operate with notches 6 in discs 10 associated with setting discs 13, a portion of whose peripheries project through the openings in the side of the cover 2, and a hasp 19 provided with a knob 16 which enters a further aperture in the cover 2 transversely of the path of the bolt. On rotation of the setting discs to angular positions corresponding to a code shown by indications carried by the discs, and appearing through the first-mentioned apertures in the cover, the notches 6 are brought opposite the tongues 5 (as in Fig. 3), permitting retraction of the bolt on forcing home the hasp 19, or retraction by the knob 20 to release the hasp. The edges of the discs 13 are milled for ease of manipulation, and for engagement with springs 26 to prevent free rotation of them, and thereby to prevent discovery of the code by " feeling." Each of the notched discs 10 has an eccentric pin 11 engageable in one of a series of holes 12 in its associated setting disc 13 to enable the code to be varied on removing the cover 2.

A photo-hardenable element comprises a support coated with a transparent photo-hardenable layer which exhibits an increase in stick temperature on exposure and a contiguous photo-hardenable stratum containing a coloured material, which stratum may comprise a distinct coloured photohardenable layer or merely a coloured zone at the unsupported surface of the transparent layer produced, for example, by pressing a particulate colouring material into the unsupported surface of the transparent layer. The material may be imagewise exposed and the unexposed areas removed by washing, or by transfer to an integral or separate receptor sheet. Two or three coloured images may be produced by applying a differently coloured photo-hardenable layer to the coloured image produced as above and repeating the exposure and development steps. The transferred image may be used as an etching resist or a lithographic plate, or be enhanced by applying developer or exposing or heating to harden the image. There may be a uniformly hardened photo-polymerizable layer between the support and the transparent layer. The unpolymerized areas of the element may be transferred at room temperature if transparent particles such as alumina or silica are added to the transparent layer or by increasing the monomer content of this layer. Specified photo-hardenable materials include photo-polymerizable monomer and monomer/binder compositions and photocross-linkable polymer compositions.
