Title: Improvements in or relating to hydraulic follow-up valves
IPC: F15B9/12
Filed: 1947-03-10
Abstract: 632,513. Fluid-pressure servomotor-control systems. WATSON, C. D., and MANSELL, R. C. S. March 10, 1947, No. 6693. [Class 135] A follow-up valve for a hydraulic jack, suitable for operating aircraft wing flaps, comprises a main valve-member arranged for linear displacement in a ported cylinder, the displacement of said member being controlled by an axially-displaceable servo-valve member which controls the application of pressure-liquid to alternative reaction faces of the main valvemember and which, when displaced axially, also rotates. Rotation of an input shaft 47 gives an axial and rotational movement to the servo-valve 17 through bevel-gears 46, 45 and a screw 42, the latter being splined to the gear 45 and engaging a relatively-fixed nut 44. This movement of valve 17 allows pressure liquid, from an inlet 13, to act on one end or the other of the main valve 15 which slides on valve 17. The valve 15 moves to centralize itself with respect to the valve 17, and connects the lefthand face of the jack piston 10 to pressure or exhaust. The subsequent axial movement of piston 10 imparts rotary motion to a shaft 48 through a screw-and-nut or pin-and-slot, and this rotary motion is transmitted through bevels 49 ... 52 to nut 44. Since screw 42 is now held against rotation by the shaft 47, the valve 17 is given a recentring axial movement which is followed up by valve 15. The righthand face of piston 10 is permanently loaded by pressure-liquid from the inlet 13. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 636,679.

Filed: 1943-05-05
Abstract: 574,904. Canning fish &c. BORG, E. M. May 5, 1943, No. 7104. [Class 49] In canning fish, particularly halibut, sole, sandabs and cod, and the meat of shellfish, crustacea, gastropods and mammals of fishlike character, the cleaned raw fish or meat is subjected to mechanically-applied force for the extraction of a predetermined amount of the liquid content. Filled cans, open at the top, are preferably first carried by a conveyer through a dipping machine for treatment with water at a temperature of 98‹-210‹F. for about 15 minutes to tenderise the tissues and then directly through a similar machine, or a separate compartment of the first machine, for cooling by immersion in water at 50‹F. for 4-7 minutes. In the case of tuna fish or dogfish, the hot water treatment is extended to about 30 minutes and the cooling step omitted. The cans may then be conveyed to the pockets of the rotary turret 25, Fig 2, of a can filler, the plunger-actuating cam of which has been reset or reformed to cause the plungers 27 to compress the meat, e.g. in the case of halibut to about #ths of its original volume, the liquid dra:ning from the cans. Alternatively, the meat may be compressed by a tubular plunger 31, Fig. 3, fitted with a fine mesh plate 32 and connected to a suction tube 33 for removing the liquid, a spring-pressed collar 35 being provided to retain the can against the baseplate 30 when the plunger is withdrawn, or the can may be placed on a spinning pad for removal of liquid by centrifugal action. After extraction of the liquid, the cans may pass to devices for adding salt or other seasoning and for filling the head space with a vegetable oil or pure water and are finally sealed in vacuo.

[Class 106 (i)] A calculating-apparatus comprises means for entering an integral number expressed in a first radix, electrically-operated means for transforming each digit of said number in turn, commencing with the highest digit, into the equivalent in a second radix, means for computing a number in said second radix equivalent to the value of said digit when raised to the next higher denomination in the first radix and for adding to the result the number expressed in the second radix which is equivalent to the value of the digit of next lower denomination of said number expressed in the first radix. Figs. 1 and 2 show a circuit diagram of an electrically-operated calculating-apparatus by means of which an integral number expressed in radix ten is converted into the equivalent number expressed in radix 2. Keys 1-9, 0, contacts of relays or a multi-position switch may be utilised to enter the integral decimal number. As each digit is submitted, the radix two equivalent is displayed on a lamp indicator NL-OL, Fig. 2, by the operation of sequence relays and calculating relays A, Z and B arranged as described in Specification 577,893. Each time a digit key is depressed, after depression of the start key, one or more translating relays PA ... PE operate followed by control relays DC and J and timing relays AP, C and T. Relays K, L and M serve to count the cycles of the timing relays. Each time the relay C is operated, a calculation is effected, the relays Z operating in a combination determined by the condition of the relays A and B. After the first digit has been entered and stored in the relays Z, the key of the next digit is depressed and by means of the circuit arrangement shown the number initially sorted on the relays Z is multiplied by 1010 which is the equivalent of ten in radix' two and finally the value in radix two of the digit last entered is added thereto, the final sum appearing on the relays Z. In this summation, the carry-over values are effected automatically. If the capacity is exceeded, the relay AL operates to release 'the relays Z to display zero.

Title: Taper gauge
IPC: G01B5/24
Filed: 1959-03-03
Abstract: 856,502. Measuring internal and external tapers. HIRT, W. March 3, 1959 [March 5, 1958], No. 7274/59. Class 106 (2). [Also in Group XX] A taper gauge for testing internal or external tapers comprises three measuring heads 17, 16, 19 of graduated diameters and arranged coaxially at spaced intervals, one, 19 being arranged stationarily on the device, whilst the other heads 16, 17 are displaceable from an initial position along the common axis against spring means 26 and are associated with dial gauges (not shown) which indicate their displacement. As shown for gauging an internal tapered surface, the feelers 16, 17, 19 are mounted on an inner sleeve 5, a rod 6, and an outer sleeve 3 respectively. The sleeve 3 screws into the body 2 of the device and carries a pin 13. The sleeve 5 and the rod 6 slide relatively to the sleeve 3, their ranges of movement being determined by the lengths of slots 9, 11 in which the pin 13 is guided. The ends 22, 23 of the parts 5, 6 are in contact with spring-urged plungers 27, 28, the axial movements of which are transmitted to the dial gauges by levers 29. Before use, the springs 26 urge the parts 5, 6 outwards to the limits of their travel as determined by the slots 9, 11. The device is then inserted in a standard bore and the dial gauges adjusted to zero. When testing a bore, the device is inserted until the measuring head 19 contacts the walls [of the bore]. If the dial gauge corresponding to the head 17 does not then read zero, the overall taper of the portion BC is incorrect. If the two dial gauges have different readings, the points B, A, C are not collinear and the taper is either convex or concave, the deviation from standard being indicated by the difference between the two readings. A similar device for checking an external taper is also described (Figs. 4 and 5, not shown). If desired, the set of measuring heads 16, 17, 19, may be exchanged with another set for measuring a different taper.
