Title: Hand Grenades.
Inventor: SHINKLE EDWARD MARSH
IPC: F42C1/06
Filed: 1917-06-30
Abstract: 107,601. Shinkle, E. M. June 22, 1916, [Convention date]. Projectiles; projectile fuses. - Relates to handgrenades in which release of the firing-device is effected when impact in any direction occurs by the movement of a trigger caused bv a weight, and consists of a combination of parts comprising a loose member, such as a ball, interposed between the trigger and the firing-device. in the construction shown in Fig. 1, a casing 103 contains a spring-pressed firing-pin 107 which is normally held cocked by the engagement through an interposed loose ball 111 of its hooked end 109 with the similarlyshaped end 112 of a trigger member 113. This is pivoted at 116 in such a way as to be able, when unlocked, to move in any direction. A weight 118 is mounted on the member 113, and is engaged by a pin 119, itself locked by a pin 123. When the grenade is thrown, the pin 123 is withdrawn by a lanyard or otherwise, and the pin 119 is ejected by a spring 121, releasing the weight 118. On impact, the member 113 swings aside, the ball 111 escapes, and the firing pin 107 is thus freed. The charge in the grenade is contained between the casing 103 and an outer casing 100, which is preferably an iron pipe. In a modification, the pin which locks the weight on the pivoted member is adapted to be withdrawn by a lanyard.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the manufacture of titanium or zirconium base alloys
Inventor: SWAINSON ERIC
IPC: C22C16/00
Filed: 1953-04-08
Abstract: Titanium- or zirconium-base alloys containing metallic alloying ingredients are produced by an arc-melting process, the said ingredients being added in the form of one or more master alloys or compacted powder mixtures having a specific gravity between 3.5 and 5.5 when the basis metal is titanium and between 5.5 and 7.5 when the basis metal is zirconium.  A number of master alloys may be used and these may be prepared by melting the ingredients or by the action of pressure and heat on a mixture of powdered ingredients.  To obtain master alloys or compacted powder mixtures of suitable specific gravity where ingredients of high specific gravity are used there may be included in the ingredients a metal of lower specific gravity than the base metal and adapted to be distilled off during the arc-melting process.  A suitable metal of this type is magnesium.

Title: Improvements in or relating to multiplying arrangements for digital computing and like purposes
Inventor: KILBURN TOM
IPC: G06F7/52
Filed: 1960-03-18
Abstract: 976,620. Electric digital multipliers. NATIONAL RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. March 14, 1961 [March 18, 1960] No. 9720/60. Heading G4A. In a multiplying arrangement of the same general kind as that described in Specification 788,927 in which multiples of the multiplicand are added into an accumulator in accordance with the value of successive groups of digits of the multiplier, means are provided for providing multiples of the multiplicand up to half the total number of multiples capable of being signalled by the chosen number of digits in each multiplier group, appropriate multiples being selected and applied to an adder/subtractor which adds or subtracts them to produce the desired one of the total number of multiples. As described, for serial-mode operation, a multiplicand d is applied to an input 10 to produce, by means of delays 13, 17 and an adder 15, multiples d, 2d, 3d and 4d on lines 11, 12, 14 and 16 respectively. The successive groups of three binary digits of the multiplier are staticised and control gates 25-31 which in turn control gates 21-24 in the lines 11, 12, 14, 16. The multiple 3d is applied to the "add" input of an adder/subtractor 18 which normally adds, but subtracts if the first of the three digits of a multiplier group is a zero, the subtract input being supplied over a lead 20 with an appropriate multiple d, 2d, 3d or 4d via gates 21-24. The output lead 33 then carries the required partial product of the multiplicand multiplied by a three digit group of the multiplier, which partial product is fed to an accumulator comprising a delay line 35 with feedback via a loop 37. In a modification for parallel-mode multiplication the multiplicand d is registered on flip-flops 40, 40<SP>1</SP> &c. of a register 40, a second register 42 serving to register 3d. A multi-stage parallel adder/subtractor 43 is controlled over a lead 45 to subtract when the first digit of a group of three multiplier digits is zero. The series of gates 52-52<SP>3</SP>, 55-55<SP>3</SP>, 58-58<SP>3</SP>, 61-61<SP>3</SP> control the entry of d, 2d, 3d and 4d respectively to the adder/subtractor 43, these gates being controlled by further gates 53, 54, 56, 57, 59, 60, 62 in turn controlled by the multiplier digit groups. The output of the adder/subtractor 43 is fed to an adder and product accumulating shifting register circuit 63, 64. In modifications (Figs. 3 and 4, not shown), the adders 18 or 63 are rendered unnecessary, the circuits for selecting the desired multiplicand multiples being under the control of three multiplier digits and also the examined value of the most significant digit of the previously operative threedigit group.

Title: Tone-Arm Spindle Structure
Inventor: HANSEN HANS CHRISTIAN
IPC: G11B3/32
Filed: 1967-03-01
Abstract: 1,192,041. Transducer-arm support pillars. H. C. HANSEN. 3 April, 1968 [1 March, 1967], No. 9744/67. Heading G5R. [Also in Division F2] A tone-arm spindle structure for a phonograph includes ball bearing means comprising a plurality of balls between a relatively stationary portion and at least one ball retainer which is mounted for swinging movement together with the tone-arm spindle and which is provided with a plurality of recesses in each of which a ball moves during the swinging of the tone-arm, and which are of such peripheral extent that each ball moves substantially from one end of the recess to the other during swinging of the tonearm from its most exterior to its most interior position. As shown, a tone-arm 15 is supported on pivots in an annular member 12 mounted on a hollow spindle 20 which is rotatable within a fixed hollow bushing 22. The lower end of bushing 22 has a conical surface 25 for co-operation with three balls 32 each accommodated in one of three recesses 34 provided in a supporting member 28 which rotates with spindle 20. Fig. 1 shows the start-of-play position and Fig. 2 the end-of-play position. The bearing structure at the top of bushing 22 may resemble that at the bottom, but preferably, as shown, the recesses each have an end surface 44 which is inclined at an acute angle to a plane perpendicular to the axis of the spindle 20, and in the direction such that the horizontal component of the reaction between any ball 42 and the member 38 compensates for "tracking effect" as the stylus traverses the record. The degree of compensation may be governed by adjusting a nut 52 to regulate the compression of a spring 50. The surfaces 44 may be slightly convex or concave. In modifications, Figs. 3 and 4 (not shown), the right hand end of each surface 44 is either flat, because tracking effect is of no consequence in the outlet grooves of the record, or inclined in the opposite direction, to increase tracking effect in the outlet grooves, and thereby provide positive operation of the trigger mechanism of the phonograph. The ball-supporting members 28, 38, may be of plastics material produced by injection moulding.

Title: Joint piece for power cables and method for applying thereof to the ends of power cables
Inventor: LARSSON PETER L
IPC: H01R4/02
Filed: 1984-04-11
Abstract: Connectors for terminating and splicing high voltage power cables comprise a metallic tubular sleeve having an open end for receiving an electrical conductor and a closed end. The inner wall of the sleeve is pretinned. The sleeve can be provided with a slug of solder proximate to the closed end. A connection is made by inserting the conductor into the sleeve, heating the solder, and as the solder melts, relatively moving the connector and the conductor toward each. The connector can be provided with an insert to accommodate conductors that are non-circular in cross-section. The connector can be provided with means for pressuring the slug of solder toward the open end of the sleeve at the temperature at which the slug of solder melts. With this connector, no relative movement between the conductor and the connector is required. Merely by melting the solder, the means for pressuring causes the solder to extrude around the conductor.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To check the voltage varying state of an IC pin visually and to reduce the production cost of a display device by forming a pin connecting means, a switching means and a display means. CONSTITUTION:Each of amplifiers S1-Sn is constituted of an NPN FETT2 of which emitter is earthed and bias resistors R1-R3. When the measured side final FETT1 which is an IC is in the connected state and the voltage of a resistor R connected to its collector is dropped, the FETT2 is low, and LED elements L1-Ln are turned off. When the FETT2 is in the disconnected state, the base voltage of the FETT2 is turned to high voltage, so that the FETT2 is turned to the connected state and its collector current turns on the LED elements L1-Ln. Thus, the voltage variation of the observed side can be simply checked by ON or OFF of the LED elements L1-Ln visually.
