The yarn assembly may be formed from woven or knitted fibres or may be a random arrangement of bulked or textured yarns. When of high density, the assembly may be apertured by needling. It may particularly comprise a number of layers of spacedapart parallel rows of yarn, the yarns in different layers crossing to define square- or diamond-shaped apertures, and may be in the form of a tube comprising spaced helical convolutions of yarn. The fibres are usually substantially α-alumina and may be produced from refractory oxide precursor fibres, particularly fibres constituted by alumina together with basic aluminium salts. The binder (when present) may be applied in the form of a frit, dispersion or solution but is preferably also fibrous, comprising siliceous glass (particularly SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 -MgO), borosilicate, aluminosilicate or crystalline ceramic fibres. The ceramic coating may comprise one or more oxides or oxide compounds (mullite, spinel) or precursors therefor (alumina hydrate, basic aluminium chloroacetate, aluminium chloride or magnesium acetate) and may especially contain at least 40% by weight Al 2 O 3  together with BaO, CaO, MgO, ZrO 2  or TiO 2 . Additional applications of the ceramic composition may be made after firing of the initially-coated assembly. The refractory structures, especially when in tube form, may be used as supports for catalysts. In Examples, a ceramic-coated reticulated tube having the above structure is soaked in platinum resinate solution and fired to provide a coating of platinum catalyst.

Abstract: 805,973. Railway track-train interacting apparatus for stopping trains; controlling overhead travelling cranes. BRITISH THOMSONHOUSTON CO. Ltd. June 8, 1956 [June 13, 1955], No. 16968/55. Classes 78 (4) and 105. Collision between cranes travelling on the same track is prevented by a system comprising a current-carrying resistance wire 1, e.g. a resistance alloy having a low temperature coefficient, say “ inch diameter, a return conductor 9, and a pair of collectors 3, 7 carried by each crane and contacting the resistance wire and return conductor respectively so as to loop together signal circuits 15, 15a, 16, 16a on adjacent cranes for influencing sensitive circuits such as thermionic valve circuits A, B, C, which in turn operate means such as a relay coil 11, for controlling the drive of each crane, e.g. for energizing the crane motors or releasing brakes. As shown in Fig. 2, on any intermediate crane C the signal circuits are doubled as indicated at 15a and 16a, rectifiers 17 being arranged in all the signal circuits so that during one half-cycle of the A.C. fed to the resistance wire 1, one signal circuit 15a or 16a of the inner crane C is looped together with the signal circuit 15 or 16 of the adjacent outer crane A, B, and during the other halfcycle, the other intermediate signal circuit 15a or 16a is looped together with the other outer signal circuit. The rectifiers 17, in the signal circuits of the outer cranes A, B are arranged in opposition to prevent circulation of currents through these circuits and a relay 20 synchronized to the frequency of the A.C. voltage in the wire 1 switches alternately the intermediate signal circuits 15a, 16a into operation at each half-wave, to loop the circuits 15, 15a and 16, 16a alternately. Additional return conductors 9 each serve for the limitation of travel of one or two additional cranes on the same track. In the case of only two cranes, A, B, the rectifiers 17 are omitted.

Title: Improvements in and relating to loading, transporting and unloading of bulk materials, particularly in agriculture
IPC: A01D85/00
Filed: 1961-05-10
Abstract: 940,723. Self-loading vehicles. E.WEICHEL. May 10, 1961 [Nov. 15, 1960], No. 16982/61. Heading B8E. A mobile self-loading platform such as an agricultural trailer 1 is supplied with material by means of a vertically-feeding conveyer 11 and also incorporates a horizontally feeding conveyer 2 by which the material is displaced along the platform, the two conveyers being simultaneously operated during loading and their relative speeds being adjustable to control the compactness of loading. The vertical conveyer 11 consists of prongs towards which material, e.g. hay, lying on the ground is fed by a pick-up device such as the spiked roller 7. The prongs are mounted on shafts 12, the ends of which are rotatably supported in the discs 67 (see Figs. 2 and 3). As the discs rotate, a cam 26, Fig. 13, causes the prongs to be alternately projected to extend radially (as at 73, 74) and withdrawn to extend tangentially of the discs 67 so that they fork up material fed toward them by the feed roller 7 and push this material into a vertical duct 13, whereafter they retract until extended by the cam 26 in preparation for their next feed stroke. Within the duet 13 the material moves upwardly -either solely under the action of the prongs but being prevented from falling back by, projections 21, Fig. 3, or with the assistance of a rake-like reciprocated (Fig. 5, not shown) or endless (Fig. 6, not shown) conveyer acting in the duct. At the tip of the duct the material passes over the end wall of the trailer and falls on to conveyer 2. The latter is an endless belt or scraper conveyer driven stepwise by a pawl 51 and ratchet 34, Fig. 2. The pawl is operated by a coupling rod 37 which connects it to a crank 36 of adjustable length. This crank is driven by the shaft 35 which also drives the prong conveyer 11 and the associated pick-up device 7. To unload the trailer, rear doors 38 are opened and the floor conveyer 2 is used as the unloading means.

Title: Improvements in or relating to systems for the distribution of music, speech or the like over line wires
IPC: H03F1/54
Filed: 1932-06-17
Abstract: 398,616. Distributing music &c. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO., Ltd., Magnet House, Kingsway, London, CLARK, F. and CHUBB, A. A., c/o General Electric Co., Stoke, Coventry. June 17, 1932, No. 17139. [Class 40 (iv).] In a system for distributing music &c. programmes over line wires, a plurality of receiving sets J1 .. J4 at an unattended station, Fig. 2, remote from electrical disturbances, are selectively connected up and supervised by an operator at a central control and distributing station, Fig. 1. When the dial IP is operated, a simplex circuit is closed over dial-off-normal contacts ON, differential relays L, Y, and line wires L1, L2, for relays A, D, which operate followed by relays B, G. Impulses are repeated by relays A, D, to step-by-step switches V1 .. V3, R1 .. R3, the former indicating at V2 the set selected whilst the latter connects up over R1 the required set to the line wires and completes over R2 a starting circuit for the set selected. A monitoring loud-speaker MS indicates correct operation. The simplex circuit remains closed over contact b2 until release key RK is operated when both selectors return to normal. If the power supply at the receiving station fails, a normally-operated relay H releases, switching off the set in use and unbalancing the simplex circuit so that relay L energizes operating an indicator LF and an alarm relay AL which switches over to a stand-by set and gives bell and lamp alarms. Relay AL is locked over bank V3 and is only unlocked by dialling one particular number so that tests on the line and receiving sets may be carried on without any effect on the stand-by programme. Similar operation takes place if an earth or break occurs in either line wire and relay H also releases (by short-circuiting) if switch R1 .. R3 fails to release. The line wires and selecting apparatus may be duplicated to afford alternative programmes.

An automatic sheet material cutting-machine is provided with means for receiving a roll of sheet material such as paper, means for feeding any predetermined length of sheet material from the roll, means for cutting off said length of material and a selectively operable control system for automatically controlling said feeding means and said cutting means. As shown in Fig. 2, paper 44 is fed from a roll 46 to feedrollers 42, 54, and beneath a transverse knife 52 affixed on the end of a pivoted lever 60 actuated by a cam 62 driven by motor 38. Roller 54 is spring-pressed against roller 42 which is driven by motor 40. A knurled driving-roller 92, beltdriven from the shaft of roller 42, engages a timer wheel 74, Fig. 4, secured to a cam-shaft 84 carrying cams 76 which operate switches 80. The shaft 84 and the switches are carried on a bracket 72 pivoted at 86 and connected by spring 88 to the case of a solenoid 90 fixed to the frame of the machine, the arrangement being such that actuation of the solenoid pivots the bracket 72 and brings timer wheel 74 into driving contact with roller 92 so that the camshaft rotates. In operation, one of four pressbuttons (not shown) is depressed, starting motor 40 and actuating solenoid 90 so that the paper feeds on to table 16 and the cam-shaft rotates. When the cam 76 corresponding to the depressed push-button operates its associated switch 80, motor 40 is de-energized, the paper feed is arrested and, motor 38 is energized to operate the knife, after which the cam-shaft returns to normal under the influence of spiral spring 100, Fig. 4, the other parts of the machine also being returned to their normal positions. Adjustment of a cam 76 regulates the length of paper cut when the corresponding push-button is depressed.
