[Class 102 (i)] In a fuel injection system in which a pump driven by a prime mover supplies fuel to one or more nozzles, an accumulator is first charged by the pump in the starting operation, and subsequently delivers its charge to the nozzles through a valve-controlled outlet. The accumulator comprises a piston b slidable in a cylinder a and loaded by one or more springs c, a weight, or gas under pressure, and the discharge valve h is opened when a predetermined quantity of fuel has been supplied to the accumulator, or when a predetermined pressure is reached in the system.

Abstract: 1346494 Foot and mouth disease vaccines LABORATOIRE ROGER BELLON 6 May 1971 [6 May 1970] 13428/71 Heading ASB An aqueous suspension of particles of foot and mouth disease virus is prepared by culturing the foot and mouth disease virus in a cellular or tissue culture in a closed vessel at 35‹ to 40‹C. with oxygenation and agitation, and collecting in a sealed circuit an aqueous suspension of the virus particles liberated spontaneously into the culture medium from the cellular or tissue culture, all the operations being carried out without grinding the cells or cellular debris of the cellular culture or exposing the culture to the atmosphere. The viral suspension may be collected after 8-15 hours' culture and may contain only the virus particles liberated from the cells without any intracellular or bound inter-cellular virus particles, after which the culture conditions may be modified by increasing the rate of agitation and reducing the temperature and degree of oxygenation (preferably the temperature is reduced to 20-25‹C and the rate of oxygenation is reduced by at least one third) so as to release the intra-cellular and bound intercellular virus particles, and the viral suspension so produced is collected preferably in one or more stages, lasting 4 to 10 hours, the suspension of released viral particles being collected after each stage. The naturally occurring virus cultured is adapted to cell culture by 3 to 5 sub-cultures, and at each sub-culture only the virus particles liberated from the cells are collected without any intra-cellular or bound intercellular virus particles. All the apparatus and pipelines connecting them are sterilisable. Foot-and-mouth disease vaccine is produced by inactivation of the aqueous suspension of foot and mouth disease virus particles to which immunity adjuvants may be subsequently added.

Abstract: Substantially sulphuric acid free hydrogen fluoride is prepared from fluorspar and sulphuric acid by passing the vapours through a packed separating column to two separate condensers or groups of condensers and returning the condensed impure hydrofluoric acid from the first set of condensers to the packed column to irrigate it.  The impure vapours may be washed with concentrated H2SO4 before coming into the packed column at 140-150 DEG  C.  In the first condensers condensation is effected with water at about 10 DEG  C. and the impure condensate is recycled to the packed column at 20-40 DEG  C. The second set of condensers may be cooled with brine at - 10 DEG  C. In an example, HF condensate from the first group of condensers contained about 0.3% H2SO4 and that from the second set contained about 0.007% of H2SO4.
