Patent SE-310750-B (SE)
Inventor: MOTT R
IPC: B01D53/26
Filed: 1965-05-21
Abstract: 1,104,962. Compressed air systems. HONEYWELL Inc. March 31, 1965 [May 27, 1964], No.13737/65. Heading F1N. The supply from an air compressor 22 is purged of moisture before entering a storage container 11 through a check valve 46, the purging being accomplished by passing the air through a drying chamber 40 containing desiccant material which is regenerated during compressor off-loaded periods by passing air from the compressor to atmosphere through the chamber 40 and on unloading valve 50. The unloading valve 50 is operated by air supplied thereto through a pipe 52 from a control device 53 operable in response to a predetermined maximum pressure in the container 11. Alternatively a switch responsive to the predetermined pressure may cause operation of the unloading valve. When the unloading valve 50 is operated a pipe 34 is connected to atmosphere and the fall in pressure in the pipe 34 causes operation of a time delay device 30. Operation of the device 30 causes, after a predetermined delay, an electric motor 25 driving the compressor 22 to be stopped. The time delay device 30 may be omitted so that the compressor operates continuously. The desiccant material may be silica gel, coarse gravel or wood blocks.

Abstract: 1,179,825. Discharge apparatus. R.S.V. PRAZISIONSMESSGERATE G.m.b.H. 22 May, 1968 [10 June, 1967], No. 24441/68. Heading H1D. Glow discharge apparatus for spectral and/or absorption analysis includes a cathode-body 3 apertured to provide a cathode space, an electrically conductive closure member 9, and an anode body 1 formed with a tubular portion 2 having one free end which extends into the cathode space, the arrangement being such that in operation with the anode and cathode bodies in a carrier gas atmosphere and with an electrical potential applied therebetween an intense glow discharge occurs which concentrates in the cathode space within the tubular anode portion 2 adjacent the closure member 9. An insulating disc 4 separating the anode 1 and cathode 3 is pressed against the cathode by a ring 5 provided with six holes to allow passage of the carrier gas from an inlet 16 to outlet 17. An optical window 7 is secured to the anode by a flange 8. The cathode 3 may be made of copper-beryllium alloy and is provided with water cooling ducts 11. Solids, liquids or gases may be analysed. Solids are supported on the member 9 or may form the member. Liquids are either supported on the member or impregnated therein. Gases are added to the carrier gas which may be argon at a pressure of 2-20 torr. The apparatus may be used as an ion source for mass spectroscopy.

Abstract: 1,132,958. Photographic cameras. EASTMAN KODAK CO. July 7, 1966 [July 12, 1965], No.30543/66. Heading G2A. A photographic camera having a socket with a rotatable portion 23 for receiving flash-cubes is further provided with a cover 16 for the socket, opening of the cover tensioning means for indexing the portion 23. As the cover is opened to the position shown a flexible cable 33 causes a drum 35 to rotate clockwise (looking down on Fig.3) and this rotation tensions a return spring 36 and a drive spring 41 one end of which is attached to the portion 23 and the other end to a ratchet member 39 carrying a rotatable post 40. A flash-cube is inserted and an exposure is made by depressing a button (15) Fig.1, (not shown) thereby lowering an arm 46 until it clears a lug 44 on the portion 23. Drive spring 41 then rotates the portion 23 clockwise a little way until the same lug 44 is engaged by a tab 49. When the button (15) is released, the arm 46 rises to the right of the lug 44 and lifts the tab 49, thereby permitting portion 23 to be rotated clockwise by the spring 41 until the next lug 44 (there are four in all) engages the arm 46. After four exposures (i.e., after three indexing operations), the post 40, which is rotated with the portion 23, re-engages an eccentric stop on the member 39 to prevent further indexing. The flash-cube is removed and the cover 16 closed. The tensioned return spring 36 then rotates the drum 35 counter-clockwise independently of the member 39 and the cable 33 is rewound on to the drum. In another embodiment Figs. 4, 5 (not shown) the cover (16a) is mounted for lateral sliding on the camera body. It is stated that opening of the cover, in both embodiments, may also be used to adjust the shutter for flash operation.

Title: Methods of and/or apparatus for flanging tube ends
Inventor: BRODSKY A
IPC: B21C37/24
Filed: 1980-02-24
Abstract: A machine has pivotal inner (22) and outer (30) forming tools which flange one end of a thin metal tube (21) specifically to form a rotatable drum for laundry machines. The tools are actuated by hydraulic rams and the rams are actuated at different rates of movement under the control of a computer so that as forming is effected by moving both sets of tools from dispositions on a cylinder to dispositions on a disc the inner forming tools (22) have their pivot points (24) changed relative to pivot points (31) of the outer forming tools (30) resulting in relative sliding between inner and outer forming tools. The flange formed has two sets of ribs one set extending outwardly away from the tube (21) and the other set extending inwardly within the tube (21) and parts of the flange between adjacent ribs lying in a plane substantially at right angles to the wall of the tube (21).

Title: Verification of authenticity
Inventor: BUCHANAN JAMES DAVID RALPH
IPC: G06K7/10
Filed: 2005-07-27
Granted: 2008-08-13
Abstract: An article identification method comprises: determining a signature from an article based upon an intrinsic characteristic of the article comparing the determined signature to a stored signature, splitting the determined signature into blocks of contiguous data, performing a comparison operation between each block and respective blocks of the stored signature, and comparing an attribute of a comparison result from each block comparison to an expected attribute of the block comparison to determine a compensation value for use in determining a comparison result. The method can also comprise determining a similarity result between the determined signature and the stored signature, using the compensation value to adjust the determined signature. Thus an article damaged by stretching or shrinking can be successfully identified. Also, a non-linear signature determination can be accommodated without losing identification accuracy.
