Title: Improvements in fire baskets
IPC: F23H13/02
Filed: 1929-10-16
Abstract: 338,307. Taylor, W. Oct. 16, 1929. Grates.-A firebasket having front and bottom bars, a closed back, and sides which may be also closed or formed with bars, comprises similar interchangeable widely-spaced front bars A, A1, A2, bottom bars H, tie-rods E, E1 for holding the bars together, and spacers to determine their spacing. In the construction shown, the grate comprises alternate members as shown in Fig. 3, each comprising a front bar A, a bottom bar H, a back member M, and bosses 3 forming spacers through which the tie-rods pass. The other alternate members comprise onlya bottom bar and a back member L, with corresponding bosses, the spacing of the front bars being thus twice that of the bottom bars. The back members' M are grooved vertically to receive the edges of the alternate members L, Fig. 6, thus forming a closed back, the individual parts of which can expand relatively to one another and so avoid breakage. Air apertures may be formed in the lower part of the back. The front bars are substantially vertical, but may bulge forward as shown in Fig. 3 to allow each to fall freely. They are preferably of elongated section with the major axis directed from front to rear. The firebasket shown is provided with side grates formed with legs, and secured by the tie-bars. A grate comprising a similar construction of front and bottom bars may be used with brick sides and back.

Title: Improvements in electric contacts of the plug and socket type especially applicable to switches and fuses
IPC: H01R13/02
Filed: 1936-11-17
Abstract: 481,211. Switch and fuse contacts. ALLAN, J. E. Nov. 17, 1936, No. 31392. [Class 38 (v)] [Also in Group XXXVI] A plug or socket contact that may be used for a fuse or switch consists of a resilient contact surface formed as a helix backed by a second resilient helix that reinforces the contact surface. The helices 21, 24, Fig. 1, may be cut from tubes and may be coned. The outer helix 21 may have a double slot of coarse pitch, the inner 24 having a finer pitch and being of steel or phosphor bronze. At the base the helices are attached to a terminal block 16 held in a recess 26 in a fuse carrier 15. Alternatively the member 52, Fig. 11, on which the plug 19 is mounted may be rotatable in the carrier 51 and is provided with a key 56 or handle whereby each or both of the plugs can be turned to tighten or loosen the helix so as to ease the plug into or out of the socket. The rotation is limited by a screw 53 and slot 54 and a flexible lead 58 connects the plug to a terminal 57 carrying the fuse wire 17. A resilient socket may be made by surrounding a helical sleeve with a reinforcing helix and mounting it in an insulating sleeve with sufficient clearance not to interfere with its resilience. Such a socket may be used with a solid plug. For use with an annular plug a duplex resilient contact consisting of a reinforced helical pin mounted within a reinforced helical socket provides an annular space between the contact surfaces that engage both the inside and outside of the annular plug.

Abstract: 329,258. I. G. Farbenindustrie Akt.- Ges. Oct. 16, 1928, [Convention date]. Paper, treating with special materials; paper for writing upon electrolytically.-Paper, textile fabrics, or the like capable of being marked by electro-deposition are prepared by impregnating them with an acid solution which has been used as a photographic fixing bath, and then drying in hot air. By the action of an electric current on the material so treated a visible precipitate of silver sulphide is produced. The acid solution may be first treated in known manner with excess of finely divided non-precious metal such as lead, which replaces the silver. In this case the silver is recovered and lead sulphide is precipitated by the electro-deposition.

Title: Improvements in or relating to demodulation circuits for colour television receivers
IPC: H04N11/16
Filed: 1964-08-04
Abstract: 1,081,393. Colour television. TELEFUNKEN PATENTVERWERTUNGS G.m.b.H. Aug. 4, 1964 [Aug. 16, 1963], No. 31489/64. Addition to 1,046,275. Heading H4F. In a R-Y and B-Y demodulator circuit for use with a colour carrier signal, Fig. 1, in which the I axis is reversed at line frequency, the demodulation axes are correspondingly switched to R-Y and B-Y by a circuit, Fig. 3, in which the reference carrier oscillator 1 supplies signals to the demodulators 5 and 8 by way of phaseshift circuits 9 and 11 and a switching system 14, 15 which changes over at line frequency so as to apply the oscillator alternately to each end of the circuits 9 and 11. Circuit 9 establishes the phase difference a between the two demodulation axes, whilst circuit 11 introduces the additional phase shift γ which is necessary to maintain the phase relationship with the Q axis when the demodulation axes are switched on alternate lines. Figs. 5-7 (not shown) illustrate a similar arrangement for demodulation at three axes R-Y, B-Y and - (G-Y) and involving three phase-shift circuits. Reference is also made to the X-Z demodulation system (see " Colour Television," by Cart and Townsend, p. 241 et seq). According to a modification, the colour carrier signal may be applied to the phase-shift circuit whilst the reference oscillator may be applied in the same invariable phase to all the demodulators.

Title: Air glided load support
IPC: G01G19/07
Filed: 1961-09-06
Abstract: 926,254. Weighing-apparatus. DOUGLAS AIRCRAFT CO. Inc. Sept. 6, 1961 [Sept. 6, 1960], No. 31988/61. Class 143. [Also in Group XXX] The ground-engaging member of a load supporting device has a yieldable cushionattached to its lower face and a passage through which air is supplied to provide a film of air thereunder to serve as an aerostatic support and a frictionless bearing for the device. The device has particular application to the weighing of aircraft whereby shifts in the attitude of the aircraft and irregularities in the ground surface are accommodated to maintain the support vertical and obviate side loads. Each weighing pad 70 on the vehicle (in the case of an aircraft there may be three weighing pads) rests on a load cell 74 which is supported on the upper end of the piston 58 of an hydraulic jack 20, during the weighing operation, and the hydraulic jack is supported by the legs 12, 14, 16 of the derrick through a spider 18. The supporting bearing 30 of each leg of the derrick comprises a backing plate 48 with a central aperture closed by a plate 60 which is in turn apertured for the passage of a shaft 38. A disc 50 of elastomeric material is bonded to the underside of the plate 48 at 52 and its outer, bottom surface is covered with a tough skin 80. The material of the disc 50 may be multi-cellular, natural or synthetic rubber, or foamed polyurethane, and the material of the skin 80 may also be rubber or plastic and may be reinforced with a nylon textile fabric. The shaft 38 is hollow and is screw-threaded to screw in and out of a boss 36 which is welded to a plate 34 which is in turn welded to the foot of the leg, e.g. 14, of the derrick. The disc 50 is recessed to provide a space 37 and the bore 46 of the shaft 38 is in communication with this space through members 44, 54, which are secured by studs 64, the upper part of the member 44 having a spherical seating. The lower end of the shaft 38 is shaped to engage this seating and form a ball-and-socket combination. The vehicle to be weighed is levelled, and the supporting struts brought to the vertical, by operation of the hydraulic jack 20 of each derrick and by adjustment of the feet 30 by screwing each individual shaft 38 up or down by a handcrank 32. The principal levelling agent for the weighing operation is compressed air interposed as a layer between the bottom of the disc 50 and the floor, the air being introduced to the space 37 through the bore 46. This, combined with the resilience of the disc 50 and the ball-and-socket combination, obviates the effect of irregularities in the surface of the floor.

The resilient balls 24 may be made of rubber, polyethylene or nylon and the springs 26 are smaller in diameter at their middle portion than at their ends to provide clearance when passing through the curved connecting portion of the raceway.
