Filed: 1957-01-15
Abstract: 843,343. Doors for passenger vehicles. EAST LANCASHIRE COACH BUILDERS Ltd., and ALCOCK, A. M. April 10, 1958 [Jan. 15, 1957], No. 1463/57. Class 103(2). A double width sliding door 15, Fig. 1, in a vehicle 10 comprises a lower forward quarter 16 supported by the main portion of the door but slidable relatively thereto so as to enter a cavity in the lower rear quarter of the door, whereby fouling of the rear wheel housing 12 is avoided when the door is opened. The main portion of the door is provided with upper and lower runners 19, 21, Fig. 4, engaging in upper and lower rails 17, 18 supported in the doorway 13 whilst the quarter door 16 has runners 24 engaging an intermediate rail carried by the lower portion of the forward upper quarter of the door. When the door is to be closed the door parts shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, move together until a roller-carrying bracket 25 on the part 16 engages a stop 28 Fig. 3, whereafter the part 16 is held whilst the main poition moves relatively thereto. Similarly when the door is moved to the open position the parts as shown in Fig. 3, move together until the bracket 25 engages another stop (not shown) whereafter it is enclosed in the door cavity as the main portion continues to move. A sealing strip 29 is provided on the part 16. Specifications 771,672 and 813,272 are referred to.

Abstract: 817,172. Applying closures to bottles. METAL CLOSURES Ltd. April 13, 1956 [Jan. 18, 1955], No. 1491/55. Class 125(2). A headset for a closure sealing machine of the kind in which pressure is applied simultaneously in a radially inward direction and vertically on to the crown of the closure comprises a support, a series of radially movable closure sealing or applying tool assemblies independently mounted on said support in circumferentially spaced relation, each tool assembly comprising a slide and a tool (or a holder carrying a tool) mounted on the side, and yieldable pressure applying means mounted on the support and adapted to impart at least radially inward movement to the tool assemblies. As shown in Fig. 1, the headset, of the spinning tool type, includes a mounting plate 1 secured to a housing C and carrying in slots in the mounting plate six slides 4 having serrated under sides and fitted with a light return spring 5 abutting a central boss 1D of the plate 1. A tee nut 6 slides in a slot 4C in each cross slide and receives a bolt 7 securing a tool mounting block 8 in position, the blocks 8 as shown supporting three thread rolling assemblies 9 and three skirt rolling assemblies 10. The slides 4 have upward abutments 4A acted on by the side thrust means A, which is preferably that described in Specification 817,171. Each thread roller assembly 9 comprises a bush 9A carrying a thread roller 9B whose lower rim is profiled as required. Housed in the stem of the roller is a light spring 9D retained by a screw 9E which is threaded in a ferrule 9C rotatable on a ball race 9G. The skirt roller assembly is similar to the thread roller assembly except that the bush 10A is threaded to its block 8 to enable adjustment for closure skirts of different lengths. A central pressure block 11 is mounted on a non rotating shaft B. The slides 4 may be adapted to give the tools an oblique approach in a radial direction to the bottle neck. The abutments 4A may be replaced by a toothed rack to enable the headset to be used with an application head, described in the above mentioned Specification, in which the side pressure is applied by longitudinal expansion of an elastic element. Other assemblies than for spinning tools may be attached to the block slides 4, e.g. fingers for tightening screw cap, Fig. 9 (not shown). An attachment for use with a non- rotating headset consists of a mounting block having jaws between which are mounted segments carrying balls for transmitting side thrust to a beaded closure. Additionally the mounting may be adapted to clamp vacuum type closures in position.

Filed: 1976-01-15
Abstract: 1498923 Plasteins FUJI OIL CO Ltd 15 Jan 1976 [16 Jan 1975] 01601/76 Heading C3H A low-phenylalanine content plastein is made by (a) hydrolysing an albumin on a globulin protein with an endopeptidase specific for the aromatic amino acid constituents of the protein and subsequently with an exopeptidase to give a hydrolysate, (b) subjecting the resulting hydrolysate to a gel filtration to divide it into two fractions, the one containing the aromatic amino acid components and the other containing substantially no free or combined phenyl alanine, i.e. up to 1À9% by weight and (c) subjecting the latter fraction to a plastein synthesis. The protein source may be meat, fish, egg, oil-seed or single cell. Examples describe the hydrolysis of fish protein using pepsin and a mixture of carboxypeptidase A and leucineaminopeptidase. Elution of the hydrolysate through a dextran bed yielded a product low in phenylalanine content. A complete amino acid breakdown and plastein synthesis are reported.
