Filed: 1957-01-01
Abstract: 816,968. Strap fastenings: hook fastenings. EASTERN ROTORCRAFT CORPORATION. Jan. 1, 1957 [Jan. 4, 1956], No. 28/57. Class 44 Relates to strap fastenings wherein the free end of a strap is passed between a pair of co-operating snubber elements and wherein on movement of a handle associated with the elements the strap is tautened and clamped against slippage. According to the invention, the handle moves on a frame-mounted pivot member passing through a pair of slots whose longer axes are transversely disposed to the direction of pull on the strap when the handle is in its clamping position and wherein separate snubber elements are mounted on the pivot member and the handle. As shown, a strap 11 for securing cargo is provided at each end with a hook 14, the hook at one end being attached to a frame 17. A pivot pin 19 extending between side plates of the frame carries a cylindrical snubber element 21 and a handle 18, between side plates of which is mounted a second element 22. The handle 18 is attached to the pin 19 by slotted openings 23, allowing limited movement of the handle relative to the element 21. The arrangement is such that release of the handle 18 from the Fig. 3 position to the Fig. 5 position relieves the clamping action on the strap, of the elements 21 and 22 and permits removal or adjustment of that end of the strap 11. The handle is held in the closed position, Fig. 3, by a spring-loaded pin 29 which cooperates with shaped portions 27 of the frame plates. A cross pin 24 between the frame plates co-operates with the handle 18, to move the elements 21 and 22 into and out of clamping position.

Patent DK-66391-A (DK)
Inventor: COY DAVID H
IPC: C07K14/575
Filed: 1991-04-12
Abstract: In general, the invention features a linear (i.e., non-cyclic) bombesin analog of biologically active mammalian gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) and amphibian bombesin, having an active site and a binding site responsable for the binding of the peptide to a receptor on a target cell; cleavage of a peptide bond in the active site of naturally occuring bombesin or GRP is unnecessary for in vivo bilogical activity. The analog has one of the following modifications: (a) a deletion of a residue within the active site and a modification of a residue outside of the active site, or (b) a remplacement of one or two residues within the active site with a synthetic amino acid. The analog is capable of binding to the receptor and acting as a competitive inhibitor of the naturally occurring peptide by binding to the receptor and, by virtue of one of the modifications, failing to exhibit the in vivo biological activity of the naturally occurring peptide.

Title: Process for producing catalyst using to convert of corbon mono oxide to carbon dioxide
IPC: C01B3/12
Filed: 1981-03-28
Granted: 1985-12-31
Abstract: This invention relates to a catalyst and a method for producing said catalyst. At least 60 percent by weight of the catalyst consists of copper oxide, aluminum oxide-spinel and 60-100 percent of the copper present is bound to aluminum oxide as copper oxide, aluminum oxide-spinel, where the molar ratio Cu:Al=0.25-0.50. The catalyst itself contains 1-20 percent by weight of zinc oxide which is present in the pores of the spinel. Further amounts of zinc oxide may be admixed mechanically or be present as a coating on the catalyst tablets. The catalyst is especially well suited for conversion of carbon monoxide with steam to hydrogen. The catalyst is produced by precipitation of copper- and aluminum salts at pH=6.0-6.5 during addition of an ammonium carbonate solution. After filtration and drying, the product is calcined at 750 DEG -850 DEG  C. until there is obtained a product having a 60-100 percent spinel structure. Zinc salt is introduced in the pores of the spinel, and the product thereby formed is heated up to at least the decomposition temperature for the zinc salt which is then converted to zinc oxide. Possible addition of zinc oxide in addition to that introduced into the pores of the spinel may be admixed mechanically.

Title: Improvements in or relating to power-assisted steering mechanisms for road vehicles
Inventor: JEFFERY HAROLD
IPC: B62D5/087
Filed: 1956-01-05
Abstract: 796,194. Vehicle power steering. CLAYTON DEWANDRE CO., Ltd. Dec. 27, 1956 [Jan. 5, 1956], No. 444/56. Class 79(5) In a power steering mechanism of the kind comprising a double-acting power cylinder 3 operated by means of a constantflow hydraulic circuit including a control valve 7 interposed between a pump 2 and a reservoir 1, the cylinder 3 has a piston 4 with differential areas in the ratio of 2 : 1 or substantially so, with control valve being adapted normally to permit free flow of liquid from the pump 2 to the reservoir 1 and being operable to interrupt this flow to cause pressure to act either on only the smaller area of the piston 4 or on both areas simultaneously. The Figure shows the valve 7 in its neutral position and the flow is from the pump 2, through an inlet 9, valve seat 16, passages 24, 26, valve seat 17, valve chamber 15 and outlet 10 to the reservoir. On turning the steering wheel in one direction a valve element 18 is moved axially to engage valve seat 16 thereby cutting off the larger area 6 of the piston 4 from the pump whilst leaving it connected to the reservoir. The pressure acting on the area 5 of the piston 4 moves it to the right and thereby turns the road wheels. Turning the steering wheel in the opposite direction moves valve element 18 to engage valve seat 17, thereby cutting off the area 6 from the reservoir and leaving both areas 5 and 6 connected to the pump. The resultant force moves the piston 4 to the left. During the operation of the mechanism the pressure acting in the cylinder 3 also reacts against the valve element 18 and thus provides "feel" for the driver. The cylinder 3 may be fixed to the vehicle frame and the piston 4 may be connected to the drop arm of the steering box or vice versa.
