Abstract: 1,239,304. Fuelling reactors. BROWN BOVERI/KRUPP REAKTORBAU G.m.b.H. 28 June, 1968 [1 July, 1967], No. 31150/68. Heading G6C. Apparatus for feeding a reactor with spherical fuel elements comprises a pressure vessel 1 having a base 2 supporting a number of similar hexagonal-shaped housings 8 through spacer sleeves 9 of different height. Each housing 8 has six openings 33, 34, 34a, 35, 36, 36a, Fig. 4, for passage of the fuel elements. Within each housing 8 is a movable control member 11 for determining by which discharge pipe 6 the fuel element leaves the vessel 1, the vessel having a single fuel element supply pipe 7. Three different types of control member 11 are described with reference to Figs. 3-11, but each control member is driven along the length of the housing by a similar actuator 13 disposed in a hole provided in base 2 beneath each housing 8. Each member 11 has a passage for the transverse movement of a fuel element and each actuator 13 comprises a gas-operated piston. The actuator may be replaced by removing a flange 14. As shown in Fig. 1 the spherical fuel elements move through the vessel 1 under the action of gravity due to the downward inclination of the passages through the control members 11. As shown in Fig. 2 control members 11 serving as switches direct the fuel elements so that they do not follow a straight line course through the vessel, alternative paths for the elements being shown by the dash lines. A central control member shown in housing 8a, Fig. 1, serves to elevate the fuel elements and a supply of conveying gas may-be connected to this housing by a pipe 18. A switching control member, Figs. 3, 4, comprises an axiallymovable member 11a having a straight through passage 31 and a curved passage 32. A control member acting as a gate admitting one fuel element at a time is described-with reference to Figs. 5-7 (not shown) and a control member serving a pressure lock when permitting the passage of a fuel element therethrough is described with reference to Figs. 8-10 (not shown).

Abstract: 1,251,909. Displacing water by other fluids. HENKEL & CIE. G.m.b.H. 21 Nov., 1969 [22 Nov., 1968], No. 56981/69. Heading F4G. [Also in Division C7]  Metal surfaces having aqueous films or layers thereon are dried by immersion in a composition comprising an organic water-immiscible solvent, or mixture of such solvents, with a density less than 0À9 g./ml., from 0À1 to 10 wt. per cent of a monocarboxylic acid, or mixture of monocarboxylic acids, with 7 to 12 C atoms, and 0À1 to 8% of an alkylamine with 6 to 10 C atoms or a mixture thereof, the sum of C atoms in the carboxylic acid and alkylamine being 15 to 17. Water is displaced from the metal surface, and does not form an emulsion or multiphase system, and can thus be easily separated, the metal surface after evaporation of the solvent being dry, hydrophobic, and having enhanced corrosion resistance. Acids mentioned are benzoic, oenanthylic, pelargonic, caprylic, capric, and lauric, a technical mixture of the last three being preferred, and suitable amines are hexylamine, octylamine, and decylamine. The organic solvent may be a hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon fraction having a boiling point or range within the range 150-250‹C., and may have a chlorinated hydrocarbon, such as perchlorethylene added thereto.

In the embodiment shown, the customer enters a cheque at slot 10, Fig. 1, and an identification card at slot 12. These documents are read, and the read data compared. If the comparison is satisfactory, a currency decoder causes actuation of appropriate ones of solenoids 46 to cause dispensing of notes from respective canisters 32 via cam, ratchet and pawl mechanism 48-58, Fig. 2. Dispensed notes are received in receiver 74 of receptacle 66 and if the counts are the same (see above), a door (26), Fig. 4 (not shown), which comprises plates (218, 220) separated by a resilient pad 222, is released by a lock assembly (70) and may be swung inwardly about spring hinge (216) to allow access to receiver 74. Finally, the cheque is transferred to a store and the identification card returned to the customer. If the comparison of data is unsatisfactory the cheque and card are immediately returned to the customer. If comparison is satisfactory, but the counts differ, receptacle 66, Fig. 2, is rotated and the contents of receiver 74 are dumped in cash box 84. Door (26) remains locked and the cheque and card are returned to the customer. If coinage is required, this is delivered to receiver 74 from coin dispenser 69, Fig. 1. In a modification, the dispenser is described as coupled to a data processing system (142), Fig. 6 (not shown), which for example, contains details of an entire payroll, the dispenser being actuated by an employee's identification card. Alternatively, direct entry against accounts may be made as cheques are cashed. Note dispensing.-Canisters 32, which may be grouped together in casings 85, 86, Fig. 1, uniquely positionable within the dispenser by means of a keying assembly 282-288, Fig. 8 (not shown), each comprise interhinged plates (250) pivoted on pins (256). The notes are stored between adjacent plates (250) to be released when the plates separate as pins (256) are engaged by sprocket (262). Released notes exit as pairs of plates are indexed into alignment with shoot (44). Each receiver 74 has a re-entrant internal surface (202).
