Title: Method and apparatus for treating elongate objects or a succession of objects
IPC: F16L58/02
Filed: 1965-11-01
Abstract: 1,113,485. Coating apparatus. R. O. WALLACE. 1 Nov., 1965, No. 46223/65. Heading D1L. [Also in Division B3] A method, for treating, e.g. cleaning or coating, an elongate object or a succession of objects comprises the steps of (i) suspending, by centrifugal force, a supply of treating material in an annular space extending around said object (s), (ii) diverting a portion of said supply of treating material from said annular space and (iii) impelling said diverted material against said object(s). Apparatus for coating a pipe line comprises a frame 74, Fig. 5, having wheels 75 by which it is supported on the pipe 76 which has been uncovered and raised above the ground. A drum 77 surrounding the pipe 76 is rotatably mounted in the frame 74 by rollers 80 carried by a member 81 secured to the frame 74 and to a base 82. The drum 77 is rotated, through a chain 84, by a motor 83. The drum 77 carries at its outer end a rubber ring 78 sealing with the pipe 76. The drum 77 also carries a slip ring 112 for supplying current to motors (88) mounted in the drum 77 and driving impeller wheels 86 also mounted in the drum 15. Scoops 87 conduct coating material into the impeller wheels 86. A drum 95 surrounding the pipe 76 is rotatably mounted in the frame 74 by rollers 97 carried by a member 98 secured to the frame 74 and the base 82. The drum 95 is rotated, through a chain 100, by a motor 101. The inner end of the drum 95 has internal flanges 102, 103 forming a trough. A fixed plate 105 is located outside the flange 103. Coating material from a hopper 109 passes through a spout 108 into the trough where it is held centrifugally for collection by the scoops 87. Spent or excess coating material passes through a gap 104 between the inner ends of the drums 77, 95 into a collector 110. A fan 111 circulates air through the apparatus.
Patent GB-975129-A (GB)
Title: Process for converting hydrocarbons
IPC: C01B3/38
Filed: 1962-12-07
Abstract: Sulphur-containing hydrocarbons are gasified by catalytic reaction at elevated temperature with free and/or combined oxygen, e.g. as steam and/or CO2, and before being mixed with the gasifying agents are exposed to the action of finely divided sodium compounds wherein the sodium atoms are covalently bonded to an atom or atoms which form bonds with hydrogen on hydrolysis. Compounds mentioned are sodium monoxide, hydride, nitride and carbide, preferably precipitated on to or mixed with inert supports containing common salt or carbon. Gaseous or vaporized liquid hydrocarbons are passed through a desulphuring tower containing the sodium compounds, the hydrocarbons having been heated to e.g. 150 DEG  C. or to a temperature 20 DEG  to 30 DEG  C. above the boiling limit of the hydrocarbons.  Higher hydrocarbons may be trickled over a bed of the compounds, or the compounds may be introduced into the liquid hydrocarbon.  The catalyst, which may be nickel, may be disposed in externally heated pipes or in a shaft through which the desulphurized gas is passed. An example in which a benzine containing C6-C8 hydrocarbons was cracked is described.  Specification 967,316 is referred to.

Title: Method for making an image screen structure for an aperturedmask cathode-ray tube using a mask having temporary apertures
IPC: H01J9/14
Filed: 1972-10-13
Abstract: 1370948 Luminescent screens RCA CORPORATION 13 Oct 1972 [15 Oct 1971] 47376/72 Heading H1D In the manufacture of a colour television screen by exposure of a photo-resist through a shadow mask, the apertures in the mask are reduced in size by covering one side of the mask with a pre-formed film, heating the film and the mask so that the film adheres to the mask and and completely closes each aperture, and then removing the parts of the film which cover the central parts of the apertures. In one example a preformed thermoplastic solid sheet is placed over one surface of the mask and heated so that the material flows over the apertures; the material may be polyvinyl acetate, lacquer, wax, gelatin, fish glue, cellulose acetate, polyvinyl acetate or methyl methacrylate. In another example an organic film such as methyl methacrylate or cellulose nitrate is prepared by flotation casting and applied to the mask. The portions of the coating overlying the central parts of the mask apertures may be removed by radiant heating, either slowly to decrease the surface tension so that the film breaks, or more rapidly so as to melt or rupture the thinner central region of the film, orextemely rapidly to burn or vaporize the central regions. Alternative methods comprise the use of a slow-acting solvent which removes the thinner central portion of the coating, or abrasion by silica particles 40-100 microns in size and carried by a liquid (liquid honing) or in an air blast.

Abstract: 1,066,014. Controlling reactors. UNITED KINGDOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY. Nov. 19, 1964 [Dec. 2. 1963], No. 47443/63. Heading G6C. In a nuclear reactor control rod mechanism, the rod is fitted with a piston which is subjected to forces from a coiled spring and from the pressure of the reactor liquid coolant. The rod may be urged rapidly into the core by the spring and then moved out of the core, against the spring, by the coolant pressure. The outward movement is effected slowly by a shaft, against the end of which the control member is urged by the liquid pressure. The shaft is withdrawn by a screw and nut mechanism and during this action the end of the shaft closes a coolant port in the control rod structure to maintain the coolant thrust on the rod.
