Patent GB-201312408-D0 (GB)
Title: Automatically adjusting gravity-equilibrator
Filed: 2013-07-11
Abstract: A parallel support arm 2 is attached to a fixed structure 1. At the other end of the arm 2 there is a vertically sliding hook 6 which slides within a vertical end bar 3. The end bar remains vertical throughout the range of movement of the support arm 2 about the two fixed pivot points. The hook is held in place by a spring 7, attached to the end bar 3. One end of a zero-free-length spring 4 is attached to the underside of the support arm 2, and the other end of the zero-free-length spring 4 is attached to the sliding hook 6. With no supported mass attached, the spring 7 will fully retract the sliding hook 6, and the vertical attachment point of the zero-free-length spring 4 will be raised and the support arm 2 will be in balance. On picking up an object, the weight of the object will proportionally stretch the spring 7, which will, in turn, lower the effective vertical attachment point 5 of the zero-free-length spring 4 to maintain balance.

Title: Gas blast switch
Inventor: GRAF RUDOLF
IPC: H01H33/24
Filed: 1980-07-19
Granted: 1982-09-16
Abstract: A gas-blast switch provided with two coaxially arranged contact elements which can be brought into and out of engagement with one another by carrying out an axial movement. The first contact element which is connected with a drive is arranged in a fixed reference position forwardly of a blast nozzle. The blast nozzle is connected at its inlet side with a compression chamber or space which can be pressurized during the cut-off stroke of the gas-blast switch. In the cut-on stroke of such gas-blast switch the second contact element engages with the blast nozzle. The second contact element is surrounded by a screening body which, in turn, can be shifted back by means of the blast nozzle, during a cut-on stroke of the gas-blast switch, out of its advanced position in the cut-off position, against the action of a spring, along the second contact element. In order to more rapidly increase the spacing between both contact elements at the start of a cut-off stroke than such would correspond to the path of the cut-off stroke, the screening body and the second contact element are coupled with one another so as to perform opposite movements in relation to one another.

Title: Method for treating elongated bodies by hot-dipping metallization
Inventor: METZ PAUL
IPC: C23C2/24
Filed: 1983-01-21
Granted: 1986-06-12
Abstract: A plating method comprises the steps of melting the metal and forming a bath of the molten metal, and displacing a strand to be plated longitudinally through the molten-metal bath so the strand leaves the bath at a surface thereof. Thus the molten metal of the bath sticks to the strand and forms a molten metallic layer thereon. A helicoidal, that is at least generally helical or corkscrew-shaped, magnetic field generally centered on the strand is formed and positioned to exert on the metallic layer a magnetic force generally parallel to the strand and on the conductive metallic bath a rotary force centered on the strand. The field is polarized to exert the magnetic force upward to thicken the layer on the strand and is polarized oppositely to exert the magnetic force downward to thin the layer on the strand. The rotary action on the bath serves to move any impurities floating on the bath outward away from the rising strand. Similarly the kneading action of the helicoidal field smoothes the molten-metal layer on the strand so it is of uniform thickness.
