Title: Improvements in machines for mounting or lining cardboards and the like with paper and the like
Filed: 1931-12-03
Abstract: <PICT:0393638/III/1> In a machine for lining cardboard sheets with paper, a paper sheet A is transported over a gumming roll c by a transverse row of suckers h mounted in a carriage e adapted to be reciprocated in a frame d by links g<1> and cam-operated gearing from the main shaft of the machine.  The suckers are provided with springs adapted normally to hold them in the raised position, the arrangement being such that when in this position the suckers are connected to the suction pipe and disconnected therefrom when depressed.  In the position shown in Fig. 1, the suckers are depressed by inclined plates p engaging rollers j<1> on a frame j in which the upper ends of the suckers are mounted.  As the carriage moves away from the plates p the suckers rise and clear the card B and gumming rollers c, but a spring-controlled roller or brush k<1> is held in the depressed condition by a plate l so as to pass over the lined card and cause the paper to adhere thereto.  As the suckers reach a position over the end of the paper sheets A, a pair of arms n carrying a roller o is rocked through a cam-operated rack m<2> and a pinion m<1>.  In their downward movement the arms move forward spring-retracted plates r formed with inclined surfaces adapted to depress plates s which engage the rollers j<1> and force the suckers on to the top sheet, which is picked up thereby.  Reversal of the movement of the carriage e carries the sheet over the gumming roller c against which it is pressed by the roller o moved down by the arms n and rotated by a pinion on the roller c.  The suckers continue in the raised position until the rollers j<1> strike the plates p by which the suckers are depressed to release the paper sheet.  After the roller k<1> has completed the adhesion, the mounted sheet is moved forward between heated rollers u and delivered ready for use.

Title: Method of treating tin-plate
IPC: C25D11/38
Filed: 1948-12-31
Abstract: 651,707. Electrolytic treatment of tin surfaces. CARNEGIE-ILLINOIS STEEL CORPORATION. Dec. 31, 1948, No. 33657. Convention date, Oct. 27. [Class 41] A method of treating electrolytically sheet material having a tin surface, in order to prevent sulphide staining and increase the adherence of lacquer, consists in making the material a cathode in a solution containing a passivating radical, thereby reducing the oxide film initially existing on the material, then finally making the material an anode while still in the solution, thereby re-oxidizing the tin surface and forming thereon a water-insoluble film of a complex combination of the oxide and the radical. The radical may be a phosphate, chromate, or a phosphate mixed with a chromate, for example sodium di-hydrogen phosphate and sodium dichromate. In the arrangement shown, tinned steel strip is unwound from a coil 10 and passed through a bath containing a passivating radical in a tank 11 provided with spaced pairs of electrodes 15, 16. A current source 17 is connected to the electrodes 15 so as to make the portion of the strip between them the cathode. A similar source 18 is connected to the electrodes 16 to make the portion of the strip between them the anode.

Title: Automatic Rhythm Player
IPC: G10H1/40
Filed: 1967-07-21
Abstract: 1,165,070. Automatic rhythm player; readonly stores. NIPPON COLUMBIA K.K. 21 July, 1967 [23 July, 1966 (2); 6 Aug., 1966; 2 Feb., 1967]. No. 33669/67. Headings G4A and G5J. In an automatic rhythm player, rectangular pulses of period # from an oscillator 1 are fed to a pulse developing circuit 2 comprising multivibrators F 1 , F 2  and F 3 . A unique combination of three outputs from the positive terminals a, b, c and negative terminals a, b, c is connected to each of the AND-gates G 1 -G 8 , which produce pulse outputs of duration # and period 8#, each phase shifted from adjacent ones by a degree corresponding to #. The pulse outputs are fed to a rhythm circuit 4 which comprises a matrix of conductors L 1 -L 8  and S 1 -S 4 , selectively connected at their crossing points by diodes 6, to produce rhythms which, via switches 7 1 -7 4  drive circuits M 1 -M 4  which produce percussive, e.g. drum or maraca, tones. These tones are amplified at AM and drive a speaker Sp. Alternative memory circuits.-In a modification of the memory circuit shown in Fig. 3, a matrix of photo-electric elements e.g. photo-cells or phototransistors is disposed on one side of a selectively apertured opaque base-plate 4<SP>1</SP>. Lights from sources L, on the other side of the plate, pass through the apertures to sensitize corresponding photo-electric elements to produce rhythm pulses, which via a photoelectric switching matrix C L11 -C L14 , CL 21 - C L24  and C L31 -C L34  drive the percussion sound sources M 1 1-M 4 <SP>1</SP>. In another embodiment (Figs. 4-5, not shown) a single photo-electric element corresponds to each row of apertures and eight light sources (L 11 -L 18 ) respectively connected to the outputs of the pulse developing circuit (2) and sequentially switched on and off thereby provide pulse trains corresponding to the apertures of the previous example, which pulse trains can be combined with a desired sound source. In a further modification (Figs. 6-7, not shown) a matrix of apertures is formed in a non-magnetic base-plate (4<SP>111</SP>) and magnetic pieces (X) of permalloy or ferrite, selectively inserted in the apertures, couple rows and columns of coils disposed on both sides of the plate. In a still further embodiment (Figs. 8-9, not shown) the coils are replaced by electrodes which are electromagnetically coupled by ferroelectric pieces (Y) of barium titanate inserted in the apertures. In each embodiment of the memory circuit, accented rhythms may be produced as by connecting resistors in series with the diodes, or by using apertures of different diameters, or by using magnetic or ferroelectric coupling pieces of different thicknesses.

Title: Improvements relating to group selection receiver devices for remote control installations operating by the impulse interval method
IPC: H02J13/00
Filed: 1955-12-02
Abstract: 799,782. Actuation of switches. ZELLWEGER, Ltd., FACTORIES FOR APPARATUS & MACHINES, USTER. Dec. 2, 1955 [Dec. 16, 1954], No. 34589/55. Class 38 (5). [Also in Group XXXVIII] The selector of Specification 799,406 is modified by arranging the switches in " groups " so that the switch can only be operated when an impulse is transmitted and received during the given group selection interval. The drum 227 carries in addition to selector rings 251 &c., rings 291 &c., each of which is adjustably mounted on a ring 41 on the drum. A spring ring 261 is riveted to the ring 251 at 31 and carries a switch actuating pin 271. The ring 251 is held in adjusted position by a detent 255 engaging grooves 401 &c. in the drum 227, and ring 291 can be held in adjusted position by a spring 35 on ring 41 engaging grooves 501 &c. in ring 291. A pin 38 and the rivets 31 pass through slots 37, 37<SP>1</SP>, 37<SP>11</SP> in the ring 41 which is biased counterclockwise, Fig. 7, by a spring 36 secured to the ring 41 and to the spring ring 261 so that an arm 34 on ring 41 abuts the side of pin 271, Fig. 11 (not shown). Before the receipt of an impulse, however, the ring 261 and pin 271 have been deflected away from the disc 251 by a guide vane 45 during the final movements of the drum during the previous impulse, and hence the ring 41 has moved slightly further counter-clockwise into a position behind pin 271 preventing return thereof, Fig. 10. The pin 271 is thus clear of both. of the operating levers of its switch 241. When a starting impulse is received, the drum 227 rotates. If, after an interval a " group ' selection impulse corresponding to the group " for which the receiver is adjusted is received, the plate 218 moves into the position 218<SP>1</SP> to bring a projection 39 into the path of a cam 39<SP>1</SP> on the drum. Further rotation of drum 227 then stops the rings 291 and 41 and relative movement between these rings and ring 261 occurs so that the pin 271 is moved in the direction of arrow h in Fig. 10 so that it is freed from arm 34 and moves back towards ring 251. It is now in position to co-operate with the operating levers of the switch 241.
