Abstract: ABSTRACT        A tubular sheath for particulate nuclear fuel has micro porous retaining elements formed by winding metal strip about a central pin and pushing the resulting spiral into the sheath ends.    The metal strip has transverse grooves formed by a photo-etching process, which form axial gas passages narrow enough to prevent passage of fuel particles.    Suitable materials for the strip include molybdenum and tungsten.    A stainless steel strip can be used if a molybdenum or tungsten disc is placed between it and the fuel.

Abstract: ABSTRACT     METHOD OF MANUFACTURING PHOTO-VOLTAIC DEVICES      The invention relates to the manufacture of a cadmium sulphide photo-voltaic device.   A substrate such as a glass is coated with successive layers which are made, in order, of tin oxide, cadmium sulphide, cuprous sulphide and copper to build up a photo-voltaic junction.   In order to achieve a fast deposition rate of the cadmium sulphide while achieving a well ordered crystal structure the cadmium sulphide layer is deposited in two stages, the first involving spraying of a weak precursor solution and the second a substantially more concentrated solution to achieve at least a five times increase in the deposition rate.   The invention also describes improved techniques for spraying and reducing the effects of the resistivity of the tin oxide first electrode.

Abstract: COMPACT, PLANAR, MULTI-DIRECTIONAL VIBRATION                 ATTENUATOR SEAT SUPPORT               ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A compact, planar, multi-directional vibration attenuator seat support permits attenuating movement of an attached seat in any direction within a horizontal plane in response to vibration and other motions.  The seat support includes a thin, generally planar seat supporting frame having opposite sides which mount the opposite ends of a first plurality of rods slidably received within a first plurality of bearings coupled to the opposite ends of an intermediate frame so that the seat supporting frame is movable along a first axis relative to the intermediate frame.  The intermediate frame which is substantially completely contained within the plane of the seat supporting frame has opposite sides mounting the opposite ends of a second plurality of rods slidably received within a second plurality of bearings which mount the entire seat support and which permit movement of the intermediate frame along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. Shock absorbers damp movement of the seat supporting frame relative to the intermediate frame and movement of the intermediate frame relative to the second plurality of bearings, while opposed pairs of springs hold the seat supporting and intermediate frames in nominal center positions.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Apparatus and process for the beneficiation, or for the continuous hydraulic elutriation of particulate solids.  The apparatus is characterized generally as an elongate vessel, with a width of V-shaped cross-section. The upper side of the vessel is provided with launders, or overflow weirs, suitably arranged in series along the two side walls of the vessel.  An elongate upwardly faced compartment is provided at the bottom of the vessel by the converging side walls, and preferably it is compartmented.  The vessel is provided at one end with a particulate solids inlet, and the opposite end with a particulate solids outlet; and means are provided at the bottom of the vessel for the introduction of liquid.  Pumps are employed to withdraw overflow liquid from the launders, and inject same into the vessel bottom compartment, or compartments.  The particulate solids, or slurry introduced into the slurry inlet end of the vessel is contacted with an upwardly flowing stream of liquid, the upward rate of which is progressively reduced such that the solids enter into a state of hindered settling.  The solids are displaced, and transported in seriatim from one zone, or stage to another, washed, elutriated and discharged at the outlet end of the vessel.  Contaminants, or chemicals, or both, and reject size fines are discharged from the vessel with the overflow liquid.

Abstract: INTERLOCK SELECTOR CONTROL VALVE     FOR ROUND BALE WAGON                    ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A control valve for the hydraulic system of a round bale wagon is disclosed wherein the valve spool is selectively positionable between a cross conveyor mode and a pusher mode and also provides a hydraulic interlock for the operation of the load bed to pivotally rotate for the unloading of bales therefrom.  Movement of the valve spool between the cross conveyor and the pusher modes effects a selection of the operation of the bale handling mechanism to either convey bales laterally across the load bed or rearwardly on the load bed. The provision of 2 hydraulic interlock prevents the operation of the load bed to pivotally rotate the forward end above the frame of the bale wagon and unload accumulated bales therefrom, unless both the cross conveyor and the bale pickup are in a position that would not interfere with the movement of the load bed and, therefore, prevent damage thereto.  Although the pusher advance mechanism could be positioned in an interferring position with respect to the tilting load bed, the massive size of these two members prevents any substantial damage, should they impact with one another; however, the pusher advance mechanism is positionable in a non-interferring position relative to the load bed.

Interengaging clamping members and wedging members force the top housing down on the base housing when the top housing is rotated relative to the bottom housing.  This forces the thin deformable extension into a tight gripping contact with the vibratory element clamping it against the ledge while the thin portion deforms.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           A process of bleaching chemical pulp without loss of pulp strength is disclosed.  In the manufacture of printing paper furnish, small quantities of chemical pulp are mixed with mechanical pulp to provide a fur-nish with the necessary physical strength properties resulting in papers with better tear resistance.  The bleaching process  includes first treating a chemical pulp with chlorine under aqueous conditions, followed by an alkaline extraction step, wherein the chlorinated pulp is treated with an alkali, and in a third step treated with sodium or calcium hypochlorite at a pH above about 8.5.   The improvement for retaining the physical strength properties of the chemical pulp com-prises the steps of adding urea or urea derivatives in an amount of about 0.05% to 0.2% by weight of oven dry fiber to the chemical pulp prior to or simultaneously with the addition of chlorine in the first step.

Abstract: DYNAMIC ULTRASONIC LAMINATING APPARATUS HAVING POST-BONDING PRESSURE     ROLL, AND CONCOMITANT METHOD           Coenraad Eduard Riemersma ABSTRACT An improved method and apparatus for bonding together juxtaposed webs which are subject to being ultrasonically bonded together such as, for example, thermoplastic films or non-woven thermo-plastic webs or elastomeric films to form a laminate as the webs are being driven forward at a relatively high velocity. The apparatus includes an ultrasonic horn and a power-rotated anvil cylinder which define a bonding passageway there-between, and a rotatable pressure roll which is biased towards the anvil adjacent the downstream end of the bonding passageway to apply a pre-determined level of compressive force to the bonded regions of the laminate issuing from the passageway before the bonds in the bonded regions become fully set upon cooling. In a preferred apparatus embodiment of the invention the anvil has a relief-type bonding pattern on its cir-cumferential surface; and the pressure roll is sufficiently rigid and so configured and disposed that substantially only the portions of the laminate juxtaposed raised elements of the bonding pattern are subjected to such post-bonding com-pression.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE     A power supply system for portable floodlighting equipment employing high-intensity electric discharge lamps comprises an alternating current generator having two inde-pendent armature windings, one for producing current at a standard voltage and the other for producing current at a voltage sufficiently high for starting a discharge lamp in series with a capacitor.  The two windings are out of phase and interference with the operation of the lamps energized by the first winding and electric apparatus energized by the second is effectively eliminated.  The use of the generator winding for starting and energizing the lamps eliminates the usual starting ballast and decreases the weight and cost of the portable floodlighting unit.
