Title: Improvements in and relating to wire binding elements
IPC: B42B5/10
Filed: 1988-03-28
Abstract: A binding element for perforated sheets of the type comprising a length of wire bent so as to form curved prongs on which the sheets may be impaled, the wire being in the shape of a flat comb, the prongs of which are closed at their tips and opened at their bases or roots which are connected to their neighbours by aligned lengths of wire forming the stock or the spine of the comb, the strip being designed to be converted to a slotted tube by suitable bending of the prongs. In accordance with the invention the concave surface with part of each prong which is midway between its tip and root is formed with an indentation, which indentation assists the closing of the binding element very effectively and without any visible sign.

Title: Porous material and its preparation
IPC: B01J20/281
Filed: 1988-04-22
Abstract: A porous polymeric material has cell sizes within the range 100 to 0.5 mu m and total pore volume with respect to the overall volume of the material in the range 75 to 98% and includes cross-linked polycondensation polymeric material. The material can be made from a high internal phase emulsion in which the cross-linked polycondensation polymer is formed in the continuous phase. The materials are preferably open interconnected cellular structures. They can be made of a wide range of polycondensation materials. The materials are thus highly porous and light weight and have a range of properties depending primarily on their constituent polycondensation materials.
Patent EP-0310253-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01V1/38
Filed: 1988-09-05
Abstract: A method is described of reducing phase 
distortion in a detected seismic signal resulting from 
Doppler shifting of the transmitted signal. An operator is 
convolved with the seismic data to correct the dispersion. 
The operator is determined for the particular transmitted 
signal and boat speed. The operator is normally determined 
in the frequency-wave number domain. The seismic data may 
be transformed to the frequency-wave number domain for 
performing the convolution. The transformed data may then 
be transformed back to the time-space domain. 
Alternatively, the determined operator may be transformed 
to the time-space domain and the convolution performed in 
that domain.

Title: Method and device for cooling and lubricating cylinders and rolling stock during cold rolling
IPC: B21B45/02
Filed: 1989-09-27
Abstract: A method and a device for cooling and lubricating formed metal and its forming means is proposed, in particular a method and a device for cooling and lubricating the rolls 4, 5; 6, 7 and/or the rolling stock, for example during the cold rolling of metal strip 8 in a roll stand 1 while feeding if need be emulsifiers and emulsions containing at least one oil phase. The proposed method is distinguished by the fact that the emulsion is produced by separate feed of the media forming the emulsion not until directly in front of the rolls 4, 5; 6, 7 of the roll stand 1 or directly before the entry of the strip into the roll gap 11 formed by the working rolls 6, 7. After it has fulfilled the cooling/lubricating function, the emulsion is collected behind the roll stand 1 and broken or demulsified and the liquid phases thus separated are separately prepared and re-used for forming the input emulsion. The associated emulsion-circulating unit is distinguished by the fact that dispergators 15, 16 are arranged in spatial proximity or directly next to the rolls 4, 5; 6, 7 of the roll stand 1 and/or to the roll gap 11, into which dispergators 15, 16 in each case a pressurised line for a water phase 17, 18 and an oil phase 19, 20 having at least one emulsifier leads, the dispergator 15, 16 being connected to spray nozzles 12, 13 for the emulsion, which spray nozzles 12, 13 are distributed over the length of the rolls. Arranged below the roll stand 1 is a collecting tank 21 which is connected to catch and separating containers for demulsifying the used emulsion, which catch and separating containers are in turn connected to return lines 38, 39 for the separate liquid phases oil/water to the dispergator 15, 16.
Patent EP-0331278-A3 (EP)
IPC: F16H63/36
Filed: 1989-01-12
Abstract: A shift rail interlock mechanism (18) for a 
transmission having a plurality of parallel shift rails 
(16a,16b,16c) is operative to inhibit movement more than 
one shift rail from its neutral position at a given time. 
The interlock mechanism includes a support member (20) 
which supports the rear ends of the shift rails for axially 
shiftable movement along their respective axes. The 
support member (20) has an aperture (30) formed therein 
which extends transversely to and intersects the shift 
rails. A separate interlock pin (31,32) is slideably 
mounted within the aperture between each pair of shift 
rails. Each of the interlock pins is provided with tapered 
end portions (31b,31c) defining end surfaces (31d,31e) 
engageable with end surfaces of adjacent pins. Each of the 
shift rails (16a,16b,16c) is provided with a separate notch 
(933a,33b,33c) for receiving the tapered end portion of at 
least one of the interlock pins and which is in transverse 
alignment with the notches of the other shift rails when 
the transmission is in a neutral position. Movement of any 
one of the shift rails from its neutral position causes the 
notch of the shifted rail to engage the tapered end portion 
of one of the interlock pins such that the pin is moved 
axially within the aperture. The shifted rail secures the 
interlock pins in a predetermined fixed position within 
the notches of the other shift rails to prevent the other 
shift rails from moving from their neutral position until 
the shifted rail has been returned a neutral position.

Title: Brake power assist unit
IPC: F16D65/28
Filed: 1989-01-19
Abstract: A cylindrical casing (12) accommodates an 
operator piston (24) and a power piston (28) separated 
by a fixed barrier (18) which serves to define with the 
former a reservoir and with the latter a power chamber. 
A piston rod (30) affixed to the operator piston (24) 
extends through the barrier into manual brake actuating 
relation with the power piston (28). Hydraulic fluid 
under pressure is introduced to the reservoir from 
which it flows through barrier passages (70), past a 
check valve (73), into the power chamber and out 
through venting ports (82) formed in the piston rod. 
To apply vehicle brakes linked to the power piston, the 
operator piston (24) is manually propelled toward the 
barrier (18), and the power piston (28) is thus forced 
away from the barrier (18) by the piston rod (30), 
resulting in rapid transfer of hydraulic fluid from the 
reservoir to the power chamber. The venting ports (82) 
then close, such that the power chamber is pressurized 
to exert a brake power assisting hydrostatic force on 
the power piston. Also preferably included are 
provisions (34) for developing feedback forces to 
afford operator brake feel.

Title: Electronic component insertion machine
IPC: H05K13/04
Filed: 1989-05-03
Abstract: A machine for inserting DIP components having 
different centre spacings. The magazine has a number of 
component magazines (30) dedicated to components of one 
size. The central processing unit retains the data 
concerning the centre spacing for each of the magazines from 
the previous insertion program (LAST PROGRAM MAGAZINE DATA 
LIBRARY) and compares this data with similar data for the 
next insertion program (NEW PROGRAM MAGAZINE DATA LIBRARY). 
If the next program requires a change in one of the 
magazines (a small component magazine must be changed to 
a large component magazine for example), the centre spacing 
data for the last and next programs is visually presented 
(38) in an adjacent format to alert the operator that a 
change was required.
