Title: Dead-man parking brake
IPC: B60T11/04
Filed: 1975-02-12
Abstract: 1473606 Automatic parking braking mechanism EATON CORP 12 Feb 1975 [28 Feb 1974] 6022/75 Heading F2E In a braking mechanism of the type in which departure of the vehicle operator automatically causes brake actuation, the brakes can only be released on re-occupation of the vehicle by operation of a separate mechanism from that causing actuation. As shown, the mechanism includes a toggle 22, 23 which acts on the vehicle brakes through cranks and links 28, 31, 34, 39. A guide rod 45 is connected between the knee of the toggle and a bell crank 65 and mounts a spring 47 acting between washer 48 (which is connected to rod 45) and a bearing member 50 (which is restrained against upward movement by casing 26). Member contains a detent which acts on a grooved portion of rod 45 and is actuated by lever 20; the latter is movable by either of cables 61, 62 respectively connected to a pivotable drivers seat and a push-pull hand actuator. When the operator leaves the seat, lever 20 releases the detent and spring 47 forces toggle 22, 23 to its dead-centre position thus actuating the brakes. The brakes are released by rotating handle 72 which acts through crank and linkage mechanism 21 and rod 93 on bell crank 65 to cause longitudinal movement of rod 45, buckling of the toggle, recompression of spring 47 and, if the seat is now occupied, re-engagement of the detent. Linkage 21 provides a lost-motion connection so that handle 72 may be returned to the vertical after operation. The mechanism may be platform rather than seat actuated and is intended for industrial vehicles, e.g. a fork-lift truck.

Abstract: 1465392 Solasodine and glycosides thereof ESCUELA POLITECNICA NACIONAL 11 Feb 1974 [9 Feb 1973] 06137/74 Heading C2U The invention comprises a process for preparing a solution of a solasodine glycoside (e.g. solasonine or solamargine) from an aqueousalcoholic extract of a fruit containing the glycoside, by removing a major part (preferably all) of the alcohol from the extract (e.g. by distillation) and precipitating impurities (e.g. by adding or distilling off water and/or cooling) which may be removed by filtration or centrifugation. The glycosides may be precipitated from the resultant solution by adding aq. ammonia or aq. sodium hydroxide. The fruit may be of a plant of the stellate Lepstostemonum group, e.g. "huapag" or "tree solanum", and may be fresh or dried, and cut or broken provided that rupture of the seeds is minimized. The extractant may comprise MeOH, EtOH or i-PrOH. Solasodine is prepared from the obtained glycosides (or the above purified solution thereof) by acidolysis (e.g. with HCl) in aqueous isopropanol, precipitation of the product (e.g. by adding sodium or potassium hydroxide or carbonate) and isolation (e.g. by filtration or centrifugation).

Abstract: 220,251. Chad Valley Co., Ltd., and Whitehouse, F. R. B. March 14, 1924. Card games; discs and the like.-Apparatus for playing a game comprises a number of playing pieces divided into groups or suits, the pieces of each group bearing a design or portion of a design, the arrangement being such that a number of designs are thus provided, some or all of which can only be completed by assembling a number of pieces together. The pieces may consist of small square blocks 1 of a thickness about half their width, and the apparatus may consist of 150 blocks which form three identical sets of 48 pieces and six additional pieces each of which bears a complete design. Each set may be divided into three groups or suits 3, 4, 5, each having a characteristic and different colour as a background, and all the designs upon each group or suit may be of a similar nature and different in character from the devices on the other suits. Each suit may have designs 6, which are each complete on three or four pieces, respectively. Each pair or group of pieces which forms a. complete design may be numbered successively, as shown. In use, the pieces are placed face downwards and shuffled and then built into a pyramid. Players draw pieces and endeavour to complete designs and the game ceases when a pyramid of a particular number of discarded pieces is completed.

[Also in Group XVII] A lifting head for bottle de-crating apparatus (see Group XVII), comprises a number of bars 11, Fig. 10, carrying nozzles 12, means being provided for varying the spacing of the bars 11 so that the lifting head will accept a series of bottles which are in close-up formation in rows transverse to the bars and will space the bottles in such rows in order to conform to the spacing in the crate. The bars 11 are supported on side plates 10 and each end of the two outer bars 11 is connected to a piston and cylinder unit 52 and is free to slide in slots 53 in plates 54 which can themselves slide on the plates 10. whilst the two inner bars adjacent the outer bars are carried in and move with the plates 54. Slots 55 in the plates 10 accommodate sliding movement therein of both the outer bars 11 and the adjacent inner bars. The centre bar 11 is fixed. When adjusting the spacing, compressed air applied to the pistons 52 will first move inwardly the outer bars 11 until they reach the inner edges of slots 53 in plates 54. The latter will then slide along the plates 10 carrying with them the two inner bars 11 into the close-up formation. The bottle gripping nozzle, to be operated by compressed air, comprises a bush 56, Fig. 11, having mounted for sliding movement therein a stem 57 whose lower end is provided with an inverted cup-shaped member 58 forming a cylinder for a piston 59. A nose member 60 which is flared to locate and guide the bottle tops is screwed within the cylinder 58 and a rubber gripper member 61 is located between the piston 59 and the nose 60. When compressed air is passed through the inlet 62 the piston 59 will be forced downwards against the pull of a spring 65 and the resilient gripper 61 thus being compressed will bulge inwardly around the neck of a bottle to hold it in the gripper. Specification 747,140 is referred to.

A rotary impact breaker includes a balanced rotary body 1 with a single integral impact tooth 2. As described, the tooth terminates in an edge 3 for breaking lumps of rock 4 supplied on a chain conveyor. The body is balanced so that the centre of gravity coincides with the axis of the shaft 11, by providing six holes 6 on one side and two lead-filled holes on the other side. The body is suspended eccentrically between the discs 8 by an elastic pivot shaft 9 with two sets of springs 14, 15 at right angles to each other to maintain the centre of gravity in the axis of rotation against the force of gravity, as long as no impacts occur. The body is thus free to move in all directions limited by stops, and when it turns the springs which are prestressed prior to mounting, are subjected to torsion. In a second embodiment four sets of springs are used.
