Abstract: 539,782. Bandbrakes. SELF - ,CHANGING GEAR CO., Ltd., and WILSON, A. G. Jan. 20, 1940, No. 1254. [Class 103 (i)] In an epicyclic gear transmission the band of the braking device for the reaction drum is tightened by a fluid pressure medium (or by electromagnetic means) in such a manner that the pressure applied to the ends of the band increases continuously as the band is contracted, even though the initial actuating force remains constant. A cross-section of a gear-box provided with a number of epicyclic speed groups, as described in Specification 454,149, is shown in Fig. 1, b being the reaction drum of one of the speed groups and c the segmented brake members applied by means of a band d, which has one end e formed as an eye-piece and the other f as a hooked shoulder. The eye-piece e is pivoted to the end of a slack take-up bolt g. A lever k pivoted at l and actuated by a fluidpressure piston r applies pressure to tighten the band d by a strut member h acting on the hooked shoulder at f and by a knife-edge m of an abutment n on the bolt g; the arrangement being such that the leverage of the two forces applied by the lever k diminishes as the lever is turned and the leverage of the force applied by the piston r to the lever increases. Specifications 454,149, [Group XXIV], and 528,309 are referred to.

Abstract: 1487681 Memory system HONEYWELL INFORMATION SYSTEMS Inc 13 Jan 1975 [17 Jan 1974] 1370/75 Heading G4A A data process system includes a backing store 4 and a cache section 11 including a cache store, processing units 6, 7 being connected by switches 14a, 14b, 13 to receive data from either the backing store 4 or the cache store, output data from the processing unit 7 being supplied via a switch 8 to the backing store 4, and if this data is also in the cache store it is supplied to a buffer 9 for subsequent transfer to the cache store to update its contents. When a request for data is issued by the processing units 6, 7 generation of a signal to read this data from the backing memory 4 is commenced while a tag directory (28, Fig. 2, not shown) associated with the cache store is searched. If the desired data is in the cache store a comparator (29) receiving the tag directory output and the requested address generates a match signal which stops the generation of the read signal for the backing memory 4, the desired data being read out of the cache store. The cache store is arranged in blocks each of four words, the tag directory having corresponding blocks in four columns. Outputs of the comparator (29) indicate which column the address of the desired data is in, these outputs being combined with certain bits of the requested address to provide the read out address to the cache store. If the desired data is not in the cache store a block of four words is read from the backing store 4 and supplied by the switches 13 and 12 to the cache store; the first of these words is also supplied via switch 13 and switch 14a or 14b to processing unit 6 or 7.

Title: Improved method of treating sheets of ferrous silicon magnetic material to produce an electrically insulating film on the surfaces of the sheet
IPC: H01F27/25
Filed: 1944-01-25
Abstract: 572,491. Vitreous enamel insulation. SHEPHERD, G. R. (Westinghouse Electric International Co.). Jan. 25, 1944, No. 1399. [Class 56] [Also in Group XXXV] A method of treating ferrous silicon magnetic material to produce an electrical insulating surface film comprises applying a refractory coating composition to the surface of the unoxidized sheet, the composition of the coating comprising magnesium oxide, silica and an oxidizing agent, and heat treating at a temperature of 1150‹ C. to 1300‹ C: The oxidizing agent produces an oxide film on the metal which reacts with the coating composition to form a tenaciously adherent insulating glaze. As shown, the metal sheet passes between rolls 12 where the coating in the form of a suspension in water is applied to the upper and lower surfaces, between rolls 22 which adjust the thickness of the coating, through a drier 24, to a furnace 26 where the metal is annealed and glaze formation takes place. Brushes 28 remove any excess coating material. The glaze 62, Fig. 2, is formed only closely adjacent to the surface of the metal 60 ; the remainder of the coating 64 acting as a refractory separator. The coating has the composition 2-10 per cent silica, 2-10 per cent of the carbonate or hydroxide of an alkaline earth metal and the remainder magnesia. The insulated material is then slit at the cutters 30, wound to form a transformer core 34 on a mandrel 32, strain annealed in a furnace 38 and impregnated with a thermoplastic material of the polyvinyl acetate type as described in Specification 553,864, [Group XXXV]. The impregnated core may then be cut into sections by a saw 44 and any burrs removed by a grinding-wheel 48 followed finally by an acid etch.

Title: Improvements in or relating to selective electrical switching devices
IPC: B64D1/04
Filed: 1940-01-25
Abstract: 538,366. Bomb - dropping. AUTOMATIC TELEPHONE & ELECTRIC CO., Ltd., WOODLAND, C. R., and HOUGHTON, E. I. Jan. 25, 1940, No. 1507. [Class 9 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXVII] In a switching device for the selective control of circuits particularly for controlling bomb dropping, interlocking mechanism prevents the operation of any key of one row of keys until all the keys of another row have been operated from their central neutral position. In the form shown, Fig. 2, there are two rows of keys 32 and each key may be depressed either downwards so as move by 'cam action a plunger carrying a contact 33 into engagement with contacts 34 or upwards to cause a smaller movement of the plunger. This latter movement is insufficient to cause engagement of the contacts but if it is the upper row of keys that has been moved allows a locking bar 39, previously engaged by a member 38, to move sufficiently far to allow any of the lower rows of keys to be operated either up or down. The circuits controlled by the keys may serve to release bombs and are represented by the numerals 1-16 in Fig. 5, where the device is combined with a four-position rotary down-type switch adapted to bridge various circuits as indicated according to whether it is turned from the " safe " position to a " single and salvo " " distributer " or to a " container " position. When the "single and salvo " position obtains, operation of a firing switch FS connects the positive lead simultaneously to all the circuits 1-16 whose keys have been operated downwards. In the " distributer " position, operation of the switch FS completes a circuit to an electromagnet 19 which trips mechanism allowing an' arm 17 to move slowly over contacts A ... Q completing bomb-releasing circuits successively. In the " container." position the arm 17 again moves over its contacts but at each one of them all bomb-releasing circuits are closed simultaneously ; in this case containers for bombs are provided and one bomb from each container is dropped at each closure of the bomb-releasing circuits. An additional bomb-jettison switch may also be provided, allowing the bombs to be dropped successively as the circuits 1-16 are closed by contacts arranged spirally on a rod rotated slowly about its axis by clockwork. This rod is wound up by hand and then held latched till release by an electromagnet.

[Also in Division B8] A seal for the discharge shoot 2 of a cyclone comprises an inner valve, consisting of a cylindrical rubber tube 1 which is secured to outlet of the shoot 2 by a circular band clip 3 and the lower end of which tends to assume a substantially flat condition, and an outer valve inthe form of a polythene sleeve secured to the shoot 2 by a circular band clip 8 and shaped at its lower end so as to ensure the immediate sealing of the tube 7 whenever suction is created within the sleeve. The discharge shoot is of circular cross - section at its upper end, tapers substantially conically towards its lower end, becoming slightly elliptical at the waist 8, from which it is splayed outwardly in one direction and is tapered inwardly in a perpendicular direction. The free end of the valve tube 1 is fitted with U-shaped clips (4) and thereby tends to assume a substantially flat condition. Stiffening members 5 of rubber are secured to the broad sides of the tube 1. In operation, the valves remain closed until accumulation of material in the shoot above the inner valve reduces the suctional effect and causes the valve tube 1 to open.
