Abstract: 1,199,318. Container closures. W. R. GRACE & CO. 29 Oct., 1968 [31 Oct., 1967], No. 49525/67. Heading B8T. [Also in Divisions B4-B5] A foamed sealing element is formed in a container closure, e.g. a crown cap, a pilferproof cap or a screw cap by depositing a liquid plastisol, or a suspension of a thermoplastic material in a plasticizer, in the closure, heating the deposit to a first stage of gelation and at a temperature sufficient to prevent it sticking to a relatively cold moulding member during the subsequent shaping, and losing its shape after such shaping, but below that temperature at which substantial decomposition or vaporization of the blowing agent begins to occur, shaping the deposit by the member and subsequently heating it to complete the gelling and effect decomposition or vaporization of the blowing agent. Before the initial heating, the closure may be spun to distribute the deposit, which may include p.v.c. The moulding member may be cooled.

Filed: 1970-10-22
Abstract: 1360615 Fluid regulation DEFENCE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR 11 Oct 1971 [22 Oct 1970] 50185/70 Heading G3H [Also in Division F1] Fluid flow control apparatus comprises duct means adapted to communicate with a main fluid supply line, a discharge duct and a bleed duct in communication with the duct means and a vortex valve adapted to control the proportions of fluid flowing to the discharge duct and to the bleed duct in accordance with the pressure in the discharge duct whereby the flow along the bleed duct is increased and the flow along the discharge duct is decreased as the pressure in the discharge duct increases. A servosystem n 4  for operating the exhaust nozzle of a gas turbine engine is supplied from the main fuel supply line 1 via a discharge duct 3. A bleed duct 8 leading to a low pressure portion of the fuel system is connected to the outlet of a vortex valve 5 having opposed tangential ducts 6, 7. The duct 6 is connected to the line 1 via a restrictor n 1 , and the duct 7 is connected to the duct 3 intermediate restrictors n 2 , n 3 . When the flow Q 2  in the discharge duct 3 is at the minimum value, the pressures P c1  and P c2  in the ducts 6, 7 are equal and fuel flows straight through the valve 5 into the bleed duct 8. As the flow Q 2  increases above the minimum value, the pressure P c2  falls relative to the pressure P c1  and fuel enters the vortex valve 5 tangentially to create a vortex, the resultant reduction in the bleed flow Q 3  matching the increase in Q 2  (and any change in the flow Q 1  in duct 6), whereby the total flow Q 0  remains substantially constant. The duct 7 may be radial. Restrictor n 3  may be omitted. Restrictors n 2  and n 3  may be replaced by a venturi, the duct 7 being connected to the venturi throat.
