Abstract: 1,247,879. Closing containers with foils. OHLER EKCO VERPACKUNGEN G.m.b.H., and E. SCHIERLE. 27 Sept., 1968 [29 Sept., 1967], No. 45895/68. Heading B8C. Filled, rimmed, containers are closed by foil covers by passing each container and cover upwardly through a drawing frame to bend the projecting edges of the cover downwardly about the container rim and then bending the downwardly directed edges of the cover inwardly and upwardly into contact with the underside of the container rim. One edge of the foil is provided with spaced apart cuts and crimped over into double thickness, the cover thus formed being applied to the container in such a way that part of the cuts are located upon the upper surface of the container rim thereby forming tearing tongues to facilitate removal of the cover. In the embodiment shown in the Figures, filled containers 6 are pushed along support rails 10 by the flights 8 of an endless chain 7 into a covering station where they are located below covers 16 cut from a continuous strip 36 fed from a roll 35. The container and cover are then pushed upwardly by a frame 13 through a drawing frame 11 against the action of a spring-biased plate 17 located directly above the drawing frame and the projecting edges of the cover are bent downwardly. Supporting fingers (see Fig. 9, not shown) are pivoted under the container and the frame 13 lowered and the spring-biased plate retained in its uppermost position by shoulder 24 and a co-operating locking bolt. The container and cover are finally transferred to a station in which the container is supported by a sprung support 28 and the downwardly projecting edges of the cover are engaged between an upper die 31 and lower dies 30, 31 to effect the inward and upward bending thereof into contact with the container rim. The foil, intermittently fed from roll 35, has a series of spaced apart cuts made in one edge by a pair of knives 38. The edge thus cut is crimped double by a crimping arrangement 42, and the foil subdivided into separate covers by separating means 50.

Abstract: 1395039 Garage lifts GKN TRANSMISSIONS Ltd 3 dot 1973 [17 Oct 1972] 47870/72 Heading B8H [Also in Division E2] Vehicle lifting apparatus comprises a pair of carriages 12 (only one shown) which are vertically movable along respective pillars (11), Fig. 1 (not shown), and vehicle engaging means in the form of a telescopic arm and a jointed arm being mounted on each carriage for pivotal movement in a horizontal plane, each telescopic arm (one of which is shown in Fig. 2) which comprises an extendable and retractable telescopic member 17 being provided with means for restraining movement of the arm in a horizontal plane, the said restraining means being releasable on application thereto of a force in a direction which moves the arm in the horizontal plane. Each telescopic arm is pivotally mounted at 16 on its respective carriage 12 and a rod 25 which forms part of the said restraining means is also pivotally mounted at 25a on the carriage 12, the rod 25 passing through apertures 31, 32 in respective gripping members 29, 30 which are also part of the restraining means and which are pivotally mounted at 33, 34 on a bracket 26 secured to a part 15 of the arm. Movement of the arm in the horizontal plane is possible only if the rod 25 can move relative to the bracket 26 but in the retaining positions of the gripping members 29, 30 relative to the rod 25 shown in Fig. 2 such movement would not be possible. The members 29, 30 are biased to their retaining positions by means of coiled tension springs (35), Fig. 3 (not shown) and the release of the gripping members is achieved by means of a T-shaped pusher member 36 which forms a further part of the restraining means and which is pivotally mounted on the bracket 26, the head 37 of the said member 36 being interposed between the end portions of the members 29, 30. A handle 40 is connected to the pusher member 36 and on application of a force to the handle 40 in the direction of the arrow A the pusher member 36 is rotated in a clockwise direction thus moving the gripping member 29 to its release position and the arm is then able to pivot in the horizontal plane under the said force since the gripping member 30 does not impede rightward of the rod 25 relative to the bracket 26. On application of a force to the handle 40 in the direction opposite to the arrow A the gripping member 30 is released thus permitting movement of the arm in this said direction under the said force. Each telescopic arm may be provided with similar restraining means for restraining movement of the arm member 17 relative to the arm member 15, and the jointed arms (14), Fig. 1 (not shown) may also include such restraining means.  Each carriage 12 may be raised and lowered along its pillar by means comprising a vertical screw rotatably mounted within the pillar which co-operates with a nut attached to the carriage, an electric motor being provided for rotating the screws.

If no entry is found for an instruction, the routine with the lowest activity is replaced by the requested routine. The six most significant bits of the instruction are fed by mask 102 to a start table point 104 which has 64 locations each with an address for entry in the table 106 (which has more than 64 locations). The entries are queued so that most recently used and least recently used entries are at opposite ends. Each entry in table 106 includes 5 parameters, (1) a search argument 110; (2) a P-pointer 111; (3) a link pointer 112; (4) H-pointer 113, and (5) a T-pointer 114. The search argument is used to indicate if there is a "hit" between an instruction received and the addressed entry. If there is the P-pointer is used to address the program memory 108. The link pointer indicates the next entry in a linked family of entries, the last member of the family having a zero link pointer. The H- and T- pointers indicate respectively the next more recently and the next less recently used entries. Head and tail pointers 118, 116 indicate the most recently used and least recently used entries in the table. If there is no hit and if the link pointer of the access entry is not zero the entry indicated by the link pointer is accessed to see if there is a hit, in which case its address is put in the table 104 of the initial address link family. This process is continued if there is no hit until the link pointer is zero when an entry is inserted in table 106 of the address indicated by the tail pointer unless the associated program is still active, the head pointer then being up-dated to indicate this entry.
