Title: A Machine for the Manufacture of Crimped Yarns from Synthetic Materials.
IPC: D02G1/02
Filed: 1968-03-13
Abstract: 1,180,861. Yarn crimping apparatus. ELITEX-ZAVODY TEXTILNIHO STROJIRENSTVI GENERALNI REDITELSTVI. 13 March, 1968 [24 March, 1967], No. 12153/68. Heading D1F. Apparatus for making synthetic crimped yarn comprises a frame 1 in the upper part of which a motor 2 is mounted for driving twisting bodies 3 mounted below the motor, a setting block 5 mounted in the middle of the frame, first feeding rollers 12 mounted below the middle of the block 5, second feeding rollers 4 mounted on opposite sides of the motor, and third feeding rollers 11 mounted adjacent the bottom of the block 5, the first feeding rollers 12 withdrawing yarn 16 from a supply creel 14 mounted in the lower part of the frame via brakes 13. The setting block 5 preferably consists of three setting bodies mounted in a common insulated housing, the middle body 6<SP>1</SP> being provided with two passages 6<SP>1</SP>a; 6<SP>1</SP>b, whereas the outer bodies 6, 6<SP>11</SP> have only one passage each. If a yarn of reduced extensibility is to be produced, the yarn follows path A and passes through the passage 6<SP>1</SP>a to the twisting device 3 and back through the passage 6 to be wound on bobbing 9. If a normal extensibility yarn is to be produced, the yarn follows path B so that after passage through the twisting device 3 it is wound on bobbin 9.

Title: Housing suitable for an electric switch
IPC: H01H9/02
Filed: 1947-05-06
Abstract: 635,081. Dowelling. BENDIX AVIATION CORPORATION. May 6, 1947, No. 12234. Convention date, May 7, 1946. [Class 89 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXVII] Concealed pins 24 prevent unauthorised opening of a housing comprising a cover 12 and base 10 and suitable for the electric switch disclosed in Specification 633,639, [Group XXXVII]. Ears 16 of the cover 12 engage recesses 18 in the base 10 and have apertures 17 in alignment with base apertures 20 which lead into transverse base holes 22. The length of the pins 24 is such that when they are inserted in apertures 17, 20 and are flush with the cover 12 they do not extend into the holes 22. The cover 12 is removed by pushing the pins 24 into the holes 22 until they leave the apertures 17, the dimensions ensuring that a clearance remains between the inner ends of the pins and the opposing sides of the holes 22. A tapered plug is then inserted in the holes 22 and the pins 24 are pushed to extend their outer ends beyond the recesses 18 and permit their extraction in readiness for re-securing the cover.

Abstract: 683,837. Copy-turning. METROPOLITANVICKERS ELECTRICAL CO., Ltd. May 10, 1951 [May 17, 1950], No. 12370/50. Class 83 (iii). [Also in Group XXIX] Control equipment for causing a tool &c. 23 Fig. 3, to follow a predetermined profile 13 comprises two or more control valves 51, 61, Fig. 2, operated by the profile and arranged in series in the flow path from a fluid-pressure source, a hydraulic piston 4 controlling the position of the tool, and a follow-up connection 22 between the piston and the valves so that, when the valve settings are altered by the profile, the resulting differential force is equalized by movement of the piston. The fluid may be oil, or water with a rust-preventative added. On the lathe saddle 19 a valve 26 is provided, which, when opened, causes a rapid withdrawal of the tool from the work. A damping device may be provided for the follower 12 and may comprise an adjustable spring and an adjustable outlet valve. In order to allow adjustment of the valve-openings 5<SP>1</SP>, 6<SP>1</SP>, the follower may be modified to comprise a sleeve which is adjustable on the main stem 31, Fig. 5, by a nut 34. In a modification, the piston 4 may be fitted to the lathe saddle 19 and the orifice of the valve 26 be adjustable. An additional valve may be interposed between the pressure line 1 and the line 25 to provide for rapid movement of the tool towards the work. A restriction may be provided in one of the valve lines to prevent hunting. The radii of the tips of the tool and follower are equal. According to the Provisional Specification, the lathe tool-slide may be set at an angle to the lathe axis. In a circuit illustrating the principle of the invention, the valves 5, 6, Fig. 1, are of rotary type and the follow-up connection 9 rotates the valves in opposite directions to open one valve as it closes the other.

Title: Improvements in or relating to medicinal preparations
IPC: A61K9/00
Filed: 1943-08-03
Abstract: A medicinal ointment for nasal application is obtained by mixing extracts of cardamoms, neem and myrobolans into a base formed mainly or wholly of animal fat in an atmosphere of steam and adding camphor to the mixture, the sum of the proportions of camphor and of the extracts of cardamoms and neem being greater than that of the extract of myrobolans.  The fatty base may be the ghee of buffalo milk or a mixture of castor oil with an excess of lard.

Abstract: 997,261. Soot-blowers. COCHRAN & CO. ANNAN Ltd. June 10, 1964 [March 29, 1963], No. 12647/63. Heading F2N.

Title: Improvements relating to guns for applying viscous materials such as mastics
Inventor: POLE CHRISTOPHER GEORGE TUDOR
IPC: F16N3/12
Filed: 1959-04-14
Abstract: 879,272. Piston extrusion apparatus. EXPANDITE Ltd. May 13, 1960 [April 14, 1959; April 1, 1960], Nos. 12664/59 and 11607/59. Class 102(2). An extrusion gun for dispensing mastic materials includes a squeeze-grip mechanism which in its completely released position permits movement of a clutch plate to allow movement of a rod on which the extrusion piston is carried into an inoperative position and which in its other than completely released position moves the clutch plate under the action of a spring into a position in which the gun is ready for another operating stroke of the piston. As shown in Fig. 1, a square section piston rod 11 carrying a piston 17 passes through a plate 14 formed on a casing 1 secured to the barrel 15 by a screw-threaded ring 16. The rod also passes through a thrust plate 9, spacer 21, a clutch plate 19 and the rear end of the casing 1 and springs 20, 22 urge the thrust and clutch plates respectively rearwardly. On the movement of a lever 3 fulcrumed on a pin 4, passing through the casing and the spacer, towards a fixed handle 2, an arm 5 carried by the lever tilts the thrust plate 9 to grip the rod 11 and carry the latter forward to extrude mastic through a nozzle connected to a cap 24. At the same time a nose portion 26 of the lever moves away from the clutch plate 19 which is then tilted by its spring 22 about a set screw 23 to also grip the rod 11 and be moved forward by the rod until it is again in a substantially vertical position and free with respect to the rod. On partial release of the lever, the piston 17 tends to move backwards under the pressure of the mastic so that the plate 19 tilts clockwise to again grip the rod to prevent any appreciable rearward movement of the piston. At this stage nose portion 26 does not come into contact with the clutch.plate 19 so that the latter remains in a position for further forward movement of the piston. On complete release of the lever 3, the parts assume the inoperative position shown in Fig. 1., whence the piston 17 moves backwardly under the pressure of the mastic. In an alternative construction an L-shaped clutch plate 35, Fig. 3, pivoting about a pin 36, in the inoperative position of a squeezegrip mechanism constituted by a handle 2a on the casing 1a and a lever 3a, engages a depending arm 46 of a cage 37. The cage 37 is frusto-pyramidal in shape and houses a pair of hardened steel rollers 38 which on pressure on the lever 3a engage the sloping face of the cage and grip the rod 11a. At the same time the arm 46 moves down an extension 47 of the clutch plate 35. The clutch plate is then tilted by its spring 44 about the pin 36 to grip the rod which is then moved forwardly to extrude the mastic. As before a partial release of the lever 3a leaves the parts in position for the next forward stroke of the piston whilst full release of the lever renders them inoperative.
