Title: Arrangements for securing data transfers in a communication system
IPC: H04Q3/545
Filed: 1974-07-26
Abstract: 1484472 Data processing systems PLESSEY CO Ltd 16 July 1975 [26 July 1974] 33051/74 Heading G4A Each message supplied by a data processing complex DPE, Fig. 1, includes an address used for routing the rest of the message through a switching network ICM to a particular one of a number of peripheral equipments PE each of which includes two control units PCA, PCB connected to different ports of the switching network so as to be conditioned by a received message to select one of a number of devices P0-P31 served by that PE via interface units PI0-PI31. Gating circuits in the interface units PI are responsive to signals, generated by the control units PCA, PCB from a control bit in a received message, to condition the interface units to receive messages from one or other of the control units PCA, PCB. By software control of the control bit, messages may be sent alternately via PCA and PCB of the addressed PE, or, if either control unit or its associated data path is faulty, via the alternative control unit and data path. The embodiment described uses the 3-line (activity, timing and data) bus and switching network ICM disclosed in Specifications 1,428,407 and 1,394,432. Peripheral control units PCA, PCB, Fig. 3.- When the activity wire AX is raised, timing pulses on TX clock message pulses on DX into a shift register SR until all the message address information has been registered. A check code SMCC is compared at COM1 with a wiredin check code CC to check that the correct route has been taken through the switching network ICM. A register address RA is decoded DC to provide a device select signal A0-A31 and is re-encoded CR for comparison at COM2 with a check code RCC to verify that the correct device selection has been set up. If both code check comparisons are successful, gate G3 is fully enabled to pass on timing signals TX to clock message data pulses on DX into the interface unit PI0-PI31 selected by address wires A0-A31. The control bits C passed on to each interface unit PI0-PI31 from PCA and PCB are compared in the interface unit, Fig. 4 (not shown), which is thereby conditioned to receive message data from PCA, PCB as follows: 00=idle state; 10=No fault, receive from PCA; 01= PCB faulty, receive from PCA; 11 = PCA faulty, receive from PCB.

Abstract: 337,600. Dehn, F. B., (Maurel Investment Corporation). Oct. 31,1929. Carbonizing processes and apparatus. - Briquettes are produced from ground coal and a hydrocarbon binding material by passing them through a liquid seal into a distilling zone where they are heated solely by indirect heat, thence into a hardening zone by way of a second liquid seal, and finally into a vertical retort. The moulded masses are fed into baskets 13 on an endless conveyer 14 and carried through a tank 15 containing water into the distilling chamber 9. They are conveyed through this chamber down a passage 16 into the liquid seal and by a second passage 10 into the hardening zone 11 and thence to the retort 20 into which the baskets discharge, the briquettes being received on a conveyer 18 after passing through the retort and returning to the baskets down a shoot 63 whence they are carried through the liquid seal to the point of discharge 48. A furnace supplies hot gases to a header 47 and pipes 46 in the distilling zone, and the gases then pass through pipes 19 into the chamber 11 and by way of a fuel economizer into the centre of the retort 20. Suction fans 64, 66 prevent moisture from the tank 15 entering any of the chambers. Electric lights may be arranged in the chamber 11 to hasten the hardening.

Abstract: 899,606. Electric tests. INTERNATIONAL NICKEL CO. OF CANADA Ltd. Oct. 21, 1958 [Oct. 24, 1957], No. 33632/58. Class 37. In a method of making a record of responses received from earth formations detected and measured by airborne electromagnetic operations comprising radiating at least one electromagnetic field from a transmitting coil system carried in a bird towed by an aircraft, and receiving the field responses due to earth formations by a receiving coil system in the bird, the received signals are used to modulate a carrier wave which is transmitted, via a conductor in the tow cable, to detecting and recording means in the aircraft. As shown, a plastic bird 12 suspended by cables 14, 16 from a helicopter or other slow-moving aircraft 10 comprises a solid nose section 32 containing a pair of transmitter coils 28, 30 disposed at right angles to one another, a rear section 34 containing a solid block 39 which encases a pair of receiving coils 36, 38 similarly positioned, and a central tubular section 12 provided with internal braces 40. Coils 28, 36 are coplanar; coils 30, 38 lie in parallel planes. The transmitter coils are supplied at different frequencies by sources T1, T2 in the helicopter 10, and the received signals are fed to amplifiers A1, A2, which are tuned to the same frequencies as T1, T2, respectively, and which are located in the rear section 34 of the bird. The amplifier outputs are impressed on a carrier wave in a modulator 44, the output of which is connected via a detector 26 in the helicopter to a suitable recorder 24. Alternatively, the received signals may be combined in a common amplifier, and separated by filters into the two frequencies which are then recombined. The frequencies of sources T1, T2 are within the range up to 20,000 c.p.s., preferably up to 5,000 c.p.s., and are said to be selected so as to minimize the modulation effect of the helicopter rotor and of vibrations.

Title: Method and apparatus for mounting and inflating tubeless tires
IPC: B60C25/14
Filed: 1955-11-24
Abstract: 799,803. Mounting and inflating tubeless tyres. GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER CO. Nov. 24, 1955 [June 20, 1955], No. 33688/55. Classes 144 (1) and 144 (2). An apparatus for mounting and inflating a tubeless tyre 28 on a drop-centre rim 23 comprises a support 4 against which one edge 45 of the rim is sealed, and a rigid air-impervious band 10 coaxially encircling the support 4 and having sealing engagement with the outer periphery thereof, the support 4 and band 10 being relatively adjustable axially to cause the edge of the band to engage and seal against the adjacent tyre sidewall, thereby sealing the gap between the tyre and the rim edge 45, and at the same time move the opposite side wall until its associated bead 42 seals against its seat 44 on the rim, Fig. 3. In use the apparatus permits initial inflation of the tyre via the rim valve 46, build-up of pressure in the tyre causing the beads to spread into sealing engagement with their respective rim flanges as the support 4 and band 10 are allowed to move relatively to each other to permit such bead spread. As shown, the support 4 is circular and is fixed horizontally on a vertical column 1, the peripheral edge of the support being encased in a channel section rubber sealing band 9. A stepped wheel-centre support cone 7 is resiliently carried on an extension 6 of the column 1, the wheel being anchored thereon through a spacer 24 by a wedge 25 engaged in a slot in a further extension 8 of the column 1. The band 10 is cylindrical and has a circumferential channel 11 provided on its inner surface to receive slidably the T-shaped ends of support arms 14 which radiate from a collar 13 slidable and rotatable on the column 1. Vertical movement of the collar 13 on the column 1, and thereby the band 10 over the support 4, is effected by a foot-operated lever 17 pivotally connected by a link 15 to the collar 13, and fulcrumed at 20 to a clamp 19 on the column 1. The apparatus shown comprises also manually operable bead-breaking jaws 37, 39 pivotally mounted on a lever 31 which is in turn pivoted to a frame 29 carried by the clamp 19 'and a similar clamp 30. The two clamps 19, 30 are rotatable on the column 1 for circumferential adjustment of the bead breakers, the collar 13 also being rotatable, with the ends of the arms 14 sliding in the band channel 11, to permit such adjustment without movement of the band 10. In an alternative arrangement the support 4 may be carried on a vertically adjustable piston-operated extension of the column 1, the band 10 being fixed to the column 1. For rims separate from the wheel disc, the mounting cone 7 and spacer 24 may be replaced by rim clamping disc co-operating with the wedge 25. Specification 662,367 is referred to. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 759,725.

Title: An improved process for producing oil-soluble phenol-aldehyde condensation products
IPC: C08G8/28
Filed: 1927-12-14
Abstract: 282,414. Bakelite Ges. Dec. 14, 1926, [Convention date]. Phenol-aldehyde condensation products are rendered soluble or readily dispersible in oils by heating them in the absence of auxiliary agents i.e. agents acting in a non-catalytic manner, with polyhydric or polycyclic phenols, such as naphthols, resorcinol, dihydroxydiphonyl, diphenols. dicresols, dithymols, dicarvacrols, and dinaphthols; molecular compounds of these phenols also may be used. The reaction may be assisted by catalysts, particularly substances which accelerate the drying or the formation of varnish, such as hydrated manganese oxide and lead oxide; compounds of these metallic oxides with phenol-aldehyde condensation products and lead or manganese resinates are suitable also. The reaction mixture may include oils, such as linseed oil or wood oil, and mild oxidizing agents, such as a- or #-nitronaphthalene or nitronaphthol; in addition air or gaseous oxides of nitrogen, particularly nitrogen peroxide, may be passed through the mass. The phenol-aldehyde condensation products to be treated may be of the kind capable of being hardened and obtained by condensing phenol, cresol. or naphthol with formaldehyde in the presence of a catalyst, or they may be of the kind incapable of being hardened. According to the examples, (1) a phenol-aldehyde resin capable of being hardened is melted with #-naphthol until the reaction is completed, whereafter the mass is heated at 260‹ C.; (2) the reaction mixture of the preceding example is modified by the addition of manganese peroxide, whereby the process is competed at 145‹ C. in a shorter time; (3) a mixture of a phenol-aldehyde resin capable of being hardened with a phenolaldehyde resin incapable of being hardened is heated with #-naphthol and hydrated manganese oxide; (4) the initial product of example 3 is treated with steam at 140‹ C.; the product may then be treated under reduced pressure with air or an inert gas. The products or mixtures thereof may be dissolved in a varnish, such as a linseed oil varnish, or they may be mixed with oils, such as linseed oil, and the mixture or solution diluted with turpentine and used as a paint. Specification 247,142 is referred to. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) comprises also the use of xanthine in place of the phenols and the following additional examples : (5) a hardened phenol-aldehyde resin is heated with 2 : 2' dioxydiphenyl to produce a product which is soluble in hot fatty oils: (6) a fusible phenolaldehyde resin capable of being hardened is heated with resorcinol; (7) the resorcinol of example 6 is replaced by the molecular compound of #-naphthol and acetamide; (8) the reaction mixture of example 1 is modified by the addition of nitronaphthalene, or the reaction is effected while passing gaseous oxides of nitrogen through the mass: (9) the manganese peroxide used in example 2 is replaced in part by lead oxide. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Abstract: 766,737. Jet pulverizers. ESSO RESEARCH & ENGINEERING CO. Nov. 23, 1954 [Jan. 11, 1954], No. 33968/54. Class 59 [Also in Group XII] In a process for coking heavy hydrocarbon oils (see Group XII) coke particles of a relatively large size are withdrawn from a fluidized coking zone entrained in a gas and projected at a high velocity, e.g. 100-1000 feet per second, against a hard target material to break down the coke particles to particles of a smaller size which are returned to the coking zone. The hard target material may be a fixed metal plate the surface of which may be concave or the target material may be a second-stream of coke particles. The breaking-down of the coke particles may, as shown, be effected in a zone within the coking vessel 11, two opposed jets of steam being introduced through inlets 19 and 21 and directed through venturinozzles 23 and 25 against the opposite sides of a steel plate 27. Coke particles are drawn into and through the venturis and projected against the plate 27. The breaking-down mechanism may alternatively be placed in or connected to a transfer line or a heater associated with the coking vessel. In modifications, two streams of coke particles are projected against each other, or the impact plate is positioned, in an elongated zone, the upper end of which projects into an elutriation zone wherein the finer particles of coke are separated from the coarser particles, the latter being recirculated through the breaking-down mechanism.
