Title: Detecting misregistration between a continuous web of material  and format providing means
IPC: B41F33/14
Filed: 1972-10-25
Abstract: 1410352 Automatic control of registration SIEMENS AG 25 Oct 1972 [29 Oct 1971] 49290/72 Heading G3R The registration of a format providing means (e.g. a printing roll) and a web, intermittently fed past the roll to provide a repeating format on the web in a single pass, is measured by sensing the positions of two marks on the web, made at predetermined positions relative to the end of a first format and relative to the beginning of a next succeeding format. In the embodiment shown, any sensed lack of registration between adjacent formats is automatically corrected by a drive mechanism 8 for paper web 5 driven intermittently past a continuously rotating printing roll 9. The web is stopped at the end of one printing operation, when the first mark E is printed on to the web, and started at the beginning of the next printing operation when mark A is printed and the web perforated. For correct registration the marks A, E are laterally aligned. If however the registration is faulty, because the web is stopped or started at the wrong time, the marks are longitudinally spaced along the tape. This spacing is detected photo-electrically at 10 and used to control drive 8 so as to correct the registration. In an alternative, the marks are printed at a given spacing along the web for correct registration, and the registration corrected if the measured spacing is not at the given value.

Abstract: 1529009 Optical projection apparatus G LESSMAN 26 Nov 1976 [28 Nov 1975] 49445/76 Heading G2J In an optical projector, particularly for colour television, beam-splitter surfaces 16, 18 are embedded in an optical element 14 in which the faces of cathode ray tubes 20, 22, 24 are immersed. The blue image on tube 24 is reflected in surface 16 only and the green image on tube 22 is reflected in surface 18 only, the virtual images being in register with the red image on tube 20. The composite image is projected by the concave reflecting surface 52 and the convex refracting surface 54. A Schmidt corrector 12 is used if necessary. The surfaces 16, 18 may be formed as intersecting plates or wedges apex to apex, and may be moulded into acrylic resin forming the element 10. Alternatively the element may be a liquid in a suitably-shaped container with the surfaces 16, 18 immersed and supported therein. The final image may be projected on a screen by one or more mirrors, and the apparatus together with a television receiver may be mounted in a cabinet.

A mechanism for shaking fruit-trees, to assist in gathering the fruit, comprises a wheeled vehicle 10, an elongated elevatable boom 18 freely suspended on the vehicle, a hooking mechanism 20 carried by the boom, shaking means 21 carried by the boom to reciprocate the hooking mechanism axially of the boom, the hooking mechanism including opposed resilient members 70 mounted on each side of a cushioning member 72, the cushioning member being mounted pivotally on the boom and being adapted to grip a treebranch in co-operation with the resilient members when the latter are actuated by links 87 on the boom. The boom is carried by a gimbal-mounting 150 on a pillar 25 vertically pivoted on an arm 154 secured to the piston of a vertical hydraulic ram 152 carried by a frame 17 forming an extension of the tractor chassis. The pillar 25 carries a set of three levers 27 for adjusting the ram 152, closing the hooking mechanism 20, and actuating the shaking mechanism 21, the levers operating valves (Fig. 12) in a manifold 22 controlling the supply of hydraulic fluid from a reservoir 26 under the pressure of a pump 24. The boom 18 is hollow and carries a fixed mounting 74 to which the jaws 70 are pivoted, the latter being covered with resilient pads 110, as also is the member 72. A tube 40 extending along the boom serves the double purpose of a connecting rod applying reciprocating movement to the head 20 from a hydraulic motor (Fig. 10, not shown) and of a hydraulic cylinder the piston 94 of which is connected to the jaws 70 through links 84, 87 and a slider 102. The hydraulic circuit, shown in Fig. 12, includes a valve 62 controlling the ram 152, a valve 114 operating the ram 40, 94 to open and close the jaws 70 and a valve 44 controlling the hydraulic motor 42 which reciprocates the tube 40. The jaws 70 and the cushion 72 are freely pivotable on a shaft 82 on the mounting 74 and the whole device is manipulable by handles 29 accessible to the driver of the tractor 10. U.S.A. Specification 2,804,743 is referred to.

Patent GB-1561100-A (GB)
Title: Dosage form
IPC: A61K9/70
Filed: 1976-12-14
Abstract: Solid pharmaceutical unit dose forms which are particularly intended for oral intake and contain an edible therapeutically inactive carrier material in the form of a plurality of layers of paper-like material and/or polymeric substances, on which at least partially one or more medicaments are uniformly applied in finely divided form and contain essentially no pharmaceutical additives mixed with them, are described. The dose forms are sealed in such a way that no medicament is exposed and they can be produced by a high-speed pharmaceutical production technique. A particular advantage of the unit dose forms is that non-damaging on-line testing can be provided during the production thereof, e.g. in order to determine the amount and the uniformity of the medicament applied to the carrier material and thus to test the quality of the finished dose units by physical parameters. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 1,061,810. Stoppers. ALLEN & HANBURYS Ltd. Nov. 30, 1965 [Dec. 22, 1964], No. 52115/64. Heading B8T. A resilient plug stopper, e.g. of rubber, for a bottle, has passages 5, 6 extending through it which are closed by pierceable protuberances 16, 17 extending from a protective cap 13 of inert material, e.g. polypropylene, which covers the internal surfaces of the stopper. Enlargements 19, 20 of the protuberances engage recesses 8, 9 of the passages. The outside of the stopper may have a cover such as a rubber diaphragm held in place by a tear off cap. When the cover is removed the sealed ends of the protuberances are broken, e.g. by a hollow needle, whereupon the passage 5 receives a tube for delivering the bottle contents. An air inlet tube depends from the passage 6 to near the container bottom. A third passage is provided extending upwardly through the stopper to near its top, and also receives a cap protuberance which may be pierced by a hollow needle for the introduction of further liquid into the bottle. In a modification the protuberances do not include enlargements, and one protuberance has a concave end surface to ensure that a needle inserted through its passage will pierce the end centrally.

Apparatus for assembling groups of articles for packaging comprises a conveyer feeding the articles to an accumulating device in which the group is formed and means to sweep the group from the device on to another conveyer or into the packaging position. In the illustrated embodiment, groups of four articles e.g. packets of biscuits, are formed in stacked pairs. The articles are fed by conveyers 15A, 15 each comprising two spaced belts, to a vertically reciprocable accumulator 65 between the belts which receives the first pair on an upper platform 77, Fig. 1C, and then rises to receive the second on a platform 78. The lowermost platform is then elevated above the belts for removal of the group by pushers 106 on a conveyer movable at right angles to the conveyer 15. A stop 59 checks oncoming articles on the latter conveyer driving accumulator movement and group transfer. The transfer conveyer comprises elements 101 on chains 38, bell-crank lever 112 being pivoted to each element 101 and having a follower running in a cam track 119, Fig. 4. The pusher is pivoted on the lever and has an integral pinion engaging a gear sector on the element 101, Fig. 6. Movement of the lever by the cam track causes an initial relative forward pivoting of the pusher to ensure vertical alignment of the ejected articles and then a rapid rearward pivoting. The ejected groups are received in pockets 67 on a conveyer belt 44 moving in the original article feed direction. The conveyers 15A, 15 and accumulator may be duplicated to feed groups from both sides on to the belt 44. Obstruction of the elevator by an article stops the machine.
