Filed: 1971-12-21
Abstract: 1352859 Radio signalling SIEMENS AG 21 Dec 1971 [21 Jan 1971] 59260/71 Headings H4R and R18A1 In a radio transmission system comprising a plurality of radio relay links, on the occurrence of fading, the power of a transmitter in a link section is increased automatically. Reduction of signal strength at a receiver causes a control signal to be fed back via an auxiliary channel to increase the transmitted power at a preceding stage. The system is applicable to PCM transmission and to the use of a single carrier frequency with highly directional aerials. The auxiliary channel may form part of a service channel or free data capacity may be used and it may be a radio or a line channel.

Title: Supporting Deflated Tyres
IPC: B60C15/028
Filed: 1979-02-08
Abstract: A structure for supporting a deflated tyre and preventing displacement of the tyre beads comprises a number of elongate blocks (1, 2) which lie transversely across the rim well (10) and are interconnected by reinforced rubber belts (13). To enable a tyre to be fitted or removed the blocks (1) are in two parts (6, 8) with a pivotal interconnection (15) allowing the centre of the block to move away from the rim and the ends to move together thus allowing space for the tyre bead to enter the well, this being effected automatically on insertion of a tyre lever under the tyre bead. Springs (16) ensure the parts of the block return when the tyre beads are seated normally. The blocks may include lugs (9) which bear on the base of the well. The belts may be replaced by pivotally interconnected flexible lugs on the blocks. A further embodiment is disclosed in which one-piece blocks, which can flex so that their ends move towards one another, are formed integrally with flexible connecting means. <IMAGE>

Title: Backwash System for Diluting Apparatus
IPC: G01N35/10
Filed: 1979-05-14
Abstract: United States Patent Specification No. 3,976,429 describes a diluting apparatus including a backwash system. A problem encountered with that backwash system is splashing in the course of delivery which might result in contamination of the environment. In a backwash system (100) according to the invention a rinse fluid from supply 80 is driven back as backwash along the same path as that taken by sample and passes from a sample probe (48) to be discharged to a receptacle (110) temporarily sealingly coupled to said sample probe. One or both of the receptacle and the delivery end of the sample probe is movable along a predetermined path to a first condition where the receptacle and the sample probe end are proximate to one another and a second condition where they are sealingly engaged one with the other. A switch (51) is provided for sensing the establishment of the sealed condition and preventing premature feeding of rinse fluid to discharge from said delivery end. Movement to the first and second conditions can be in stages or continuous. <IMAGE>
