Filed: 1961-02-20
Abstract: 935,259. Rolling. SCHLOEMANN A.G. Feb. 20, 1961 [Feb. 25, 1960], No. 6108/61. Class 83(4). A roller guide for a rolling mill has a plurality of pairs of rollers arranged one behind another, the rollers of at least one pair being adjustable independently of one another. As shown, a roller guide which is especially suitable for loop guides comprises two roller holders 10 and 11 mounted in slots 8 and 9 in a cover 6 and a frame 5, the holders having mounted thereon pairs of rollers 13 and 15 and adjustable guiding jaws 20 and 21. The rollers 13 are fixed to the holders while the rollers 15 have spindles 16 mounted in eccentric bushes 17 attached to the holders, rotation of the spindles causing displacement of the rollers. Spring-controlled thrust bolts 23 allow the rollers to follow changes in cross-section of the bar being rolled. An entry funnel 7 is attached to the frame 5, and the rollers are cooled using a pipe 18.

Abstract: 213,402. Colomb, H. March 2, 1923. Bearings and bearing-surfaces. - Bushes and jewel settings for time-pieces are trimmed by cooperating die and punch members, either of which may be fixed, the work being centred on the punch by a conical pin. The stationary punch a, Fig. 1, is provided with a spring-pressed workcentre b the co-operating trimming-die d having an internal passage through which air may be blown to eject the work. The die and punch may be inverted, the work being held on the punch by an air blast delivered through the trimming-aperture in the die. In a further modification, the work is held on a spindle e, Fig. 3, sliding in the die, by an air blast issuing from the stationary punch g. In each form the work-centre is withdrawn from the work when the trimming operation has commenced.

Title: Process for the production of calcium oxide suitable for making calcium carbide
IPC: C01B32/942
Filed: 1961-02-20
Abstract: CaO suitable for making CaC2 is produced by causing pulverulent Ca(OH)2, resulting from the manufacture of C2H2 from CaC2 and containin as impurities metallic iron and ion compounds, to fall freely through a magnetic field to remove the said impurities, and then the purified Ca(OH)2 is calcined and sintered to yield CaO.  The purified hydroxide may be briquetted with anthracite, e.g. 7%, and calcined to oxide.  An example compares separation of iron and ferrosilicon from the hydroxide by allowing it to fall past a magnetic drum, with the prior art operation of allowing the hydroxide to fall on to the drum.

[Also in Division H1] An electrode comprises a carbonized or graphitized fabric support to which a catalyst layer and a sintered layer of synthetic plastics material have been applied. In a preferred embodiment a layer of synthetic plastics material, preferably polytetrafluoroethylene, and which may contain carbon or graphite particles, is applied to the fabric, and a catalyst layer which may comprise a binder, preferably PTFE, and a metal, e.g. Ag is applied thereto. The plastics layer may be built up from several layers and part of the catalyst may be incorporated therein. The layers are sintered either separately or combined together. An aqueous dispersion of PTFE is preferably applied to the fabric to make it water repellant. In another embodiment a layer of synthetic plastics material which is not electrolyte repellent is applied to the fabric which is not water-repellent. The catalyst layer is then applied to the plastics layer and a completely electrolyte repellent surface layer of synthetic plastics material is applied to the catalyst layer. Alternatively, a layer of synthetic plastics material which is impervious to the electrolyte may be applied to one side of the water-repellent fabric, and a catalyst layer is applied to the other side of the fabric, the catalyst being bonded with synthetic plastics material. The catalyst may be applied by decomposition of the metal salt, e.g. AgNO 3 .

Title: Improvements relating to electric power distribution systems for rural areas
Inventor: ELLIS NORMAN SADLER
IPC: H02H3/06

Abstract: 1,109,320. Protective systems. A. REYROLLE & CO. Ltd. 13 May, 1965 [14 Feb., 1964], No. 6356/64. Heading H2K. A rural distribution system comprises a supply line fed through an auto-reclosing circuitbreaker and divided into sections along its length by section switches. In the event of a persistent fault, control circuits are arranged to open the section switches simultaneously during the " dead " time following the second opening and also during that following the third opening of the circuit-breaker, but not during that following the first opening. The control circuits cause the opened section switches to reclose automatically in sequence from the supply end of the line with successive time delays after the second reclosing and the third reclosing of the circuit-breaker. The control circuits of the section switches and the circuit-breaker are provided with lock-out relays arranged to prevent the reclosure after the second opening of the section switches or the third opening of the circuit-breaker of that section switch or the circuit-breaker whose previous reclosure reenergized the fault. The control circuit for the circuit-breaker includes a fault current relay and a relay which is not operated until its second energization and in conjunction with various time-delay relays permits the first reclosure of the circuit-breaker to occur without substantial time delay and causes the subsequent reclosures to occur with time delay The control circuit for each section switch includes a fault-current relay which prevents the opening of the switch whilst the fault current exists, and a time-delay voltage-responsive relay which effects the opening (if the fault current relay has operated) and reclosing of the switch and is responsive to the voltage existing on the section of the line on the supply side of the switch so that the switches on the supply side of the fault are opened together when the supply is interrupted, but close in succession as voltage is restored to the preceding section. The relays may be electro-mechanical or transistorized.
