IPC: D06C7/00
Filed: 1970-12-21
Abstract: 1302850 Process for decatising textile material A MONFORTS 21 Dec 1970 [20 Dec 1969] 60678/70 Headings D1P and D1L A continuous process for decatising material consisting at least partly of wool comprises passing a decatising agent, which is a super heated vapour of a medium which is not an expanding agent or solvent for the material being decatised and which boils at over 100‹C under atmospheric pressure, through the material in a closed chamber. The decatising agent is a chlorinated hydrocarbon, e.g. perchloroethylene or any other substantially non-toxic and non-combustible solvent and may be recovered after it has passed through the material. Also the decatising agent may be mixed with for example 1 to 5% of water or steam. The apparatus for carrying out the process comprises a perforated treatment drum 2 over which the web of goods 1 runs and then passes to a cooling drum 3 with a suction fan 4 for cooling air. On both drums, or only on the drum 2' the web 1 is pressed down by means of an endless backing 5, which is permeable to the treating agent. The treatment drum 2 is in a tightly sealed vessel 6, which has slotshaped packings 7 and 8 for the inlet and outlet of the product and backing. The treatment decatising medium is fed to 6 through the pipe 10 so that it flows through the treatment drum 2 and hence through the goods 1 from the inside towards the outside. In the outer jacket of 6 there is the outlet 11 for the treatment agent. There is also means for recovering the solvent. In certain cases the pressing of the web of material by means of a backing cloth can be dispensed with.

Patent GB-2023316-A (GB)
Title: Improved correlation system
IPC: G06F17/15
Filed: 1979-06-07
Abstract: Two binary signals are compared by providing time signals to indicate the respective times at which the binary signals change their state, usually in the form of digital data strings corresponding to numbers of time increments, and the two time signals are cross correlated. For example, if the two binary signals are in the same state between two consecutive digits of the two data strings, a running total of time increments is increased by the numerical difference between the two digits; if the two binary signals are in opposite states, the running total is decremented by the numerical difference. In a particular example the two binary signals are derived from two sensors spaced in the direction of flow of a flowing fluid; one binary signal is time shifted by adding or subtracting a series of numbers of increments; each time shifted signal and the other signal are cross correlated; and the transit time of the flow between the sensors is given by the time shift corresponding to the highest running total. <IMAGE>

Title: A Positive Displacement Pumping Apparatus
IPC: F04C14/02
Filed: 1980-05-02
Abstract: The apparatus comprises two series-connected pumps e.g. gear pumps 2, 4, for delivering fluid such as fuel oil, from a reservoir (through a line 7) to a utilization device 37 in two stages. A pressure regulator 10 has pressure chambers 14, 15 communicating with an intermediate chamber 8 and an output line 11 through a valve 32.
