Abstract: A mobility aid comprises a four-legged walking frame characterized by the front legs of the frame having ground-engaging wheels (9) with axes (8) movable in unison in the direction of the lengths of the legs, by one-way wheel-driving means responsive to upwards movement of said wheel axes (8) to cause forward rotational motion of the wheels (9), and by resilient means (14) acting to urge said wheel axes (8) downwardly of the front legs. In the freestanding condition of the frame, the resilient means (14) lift the front of the frame so that when the frame is pressed down the user bearing down on the frame, the wheels (9) are caused to rotate in the sense to cause forward movement of the aid, the rear legs dragging as a result. A repeated bearing down action, easily accomplished even by the severely handicapped, thus results in easily controllable forward motion of the aid.

Abstract: A method of making a games racket frame by injecting thermoplastics material into the space (13) between a fusible core (14) and a mould at a temperature above the melting point of the core. The core (14) is shaped to have locating lugs (15) to abut against the internal walls of the mould and hold the core in the desired position. The moulding is allowed to set and the core then melted out by raising the temperature sufficiently for that purpose but insufficiently to deform the moulding. The lugs (15) enable the core (14) to be located in the desired position in the mould and to resist displacement from that location during injection. The holes formed in the wall of the frame because of the abutment of lugs and mould wall can conveniently be utilized as stringing holes.

Abstract: A mixture of substances is fed to an extruder and, after being homogenized and liquefied, is extruded on an electric conductor or as a pipe. To meet electric cable specifications, the insulating material used is a polyolefin, such as polyethylene, cross-linking of which is brought about by the addition of a silane, a free-radical generator, and a silanol condensation catalyst. After extrusion, cross-linking takes place in the presence of moisture. To facilitate penetration of the moisture and accelerate cross-linking, an agent capable of reducing the rate of crystallization of the polymer, such as vinyl acetate, is used as a further additive.
