Abstract: 1,264,858. Gun barrels. DYNAMIT NOBEL A.G. 24 April, 1969 [24 April, 1968], No. 21106/69. Heading F3C.  A gun barrel comprises a tube 1 of substantially constant wall thickness and having at least two helical rifling grooves 2 and at least two helical strengthening corrugations 5. The barrel is for use with a projectile having over-calibre pins 3 for co-operation with the grooves 2. The grooves and corrugations may be formed as portions projecting radially inwardly of the tube (Figs. 3, 4, not shown). The grooves may be formed in ribs provided on the inner or outer surfaces of the tube (Figs. 7, 8 and Figs. 5, 6 respectively). The barrel may be formed by drawing or extruding a tube to form the grooves and corrugations and, at the same time or subsequently, twisting the tube.

Abstract: 1295579 Washing machines SIEMENSELECTROGERATE GmbH 19 April 1971 [26 Feb 1970] 22529/71 Heading D1A In a washing machine having a horizontal axis washing drum, a two speed electric motor and a variable-ratio V-belt transmission, arranged as a unit, the motor, the driving pulley 24 and the connection 25 therebetween are pivotally mounted at their common centre of mass S. The motor is preferably a pole-changing motor which provides two speeds directly and the V-belt transmission is changed automatically in dependence on the motor speed. An intermediate motor speed may be produced by a microswitch 31 which is engageable by the motor as it pivots anticlockwise to cut off the motor current and hence produce an intermittent drive.

Abstract: 1301584 Fuel elements UNITED KINGDOM ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY 19 April 1971 [8 April 1970] 16802/70 Heading G6C A spacer grid for a fuel element assembly comprises a grid structure of cellular form, the cells of the grid structure each being penetrated by a fuel pin of the fuel element assembly, stop means being defined in the cells, resilient leaf members extending from the grid structure in each of the cells and contacting the fuel pins, the leaf members having fretting parts overlying the stop means and being of low rating so as to allow freedom of lateral vibration of the fuel pins within the cells whilst remaining in contact with the fuel pins, the limits of lateral vibration being defined by the stop means which the fretting parts of the leaf members engage at least at the limits of lateral vibration of the fuel pins. In one embodiment (Fig. 6), a spacer grid comprises cojoined upper and lower egg-box type grid structure 8, 9 formed from interlocking strips 10. The fuel pins each pass through corresponding cells in the upper and lower grid structures 8, 9. Rigid dimples 13 are formed in the strips 10 of each grid structure 8, 9. In the upper grid structure 8, resilient leaf members 14 extend downwards from the lower edges of the strips 10 and in the lower grid structure 9. resilient leaf members 14 extend upwards from the upper edges of the strips 10. The four leaf members 14 of each cell are bent inwards so that their ends overlie and are spaced by a small clearance from the adjacent rigid dimples 13. The arrangement of dimples 13 and downwardly extending leaf members 14 in the corresponding pair of cells shown in Fig. 6 alternates throughout the spacer grid with a reverse arrangement of dimples 13 and upupwardly extending leaf members 14. The ends of the leaf members 14 which overlie the dimples 13 are formed with fuel pin engaging surfaces 15. The leaf members 14 are of low rating having only sufficient resilience to overcome their own inertial forces so as to remain in contact with the fuel pins as they vibrate. By this means tapping fretting of the sheaths of the fuel pins on the dimples 13 is avoided, tapping fretting occurs instead on the overlying back faces of the leaf members 14. In alternative embodiments, the spacer grid is formed from three egg-box type grid structures (Fig. 11, not shown) or from cojoined tubular ferrules (Figs. 1 to 3, not shown), the arrangement of resilient leaf members and rigid dimples being similar to that in the embodiment described above. The stop means may alternatively be formed by the faces of the grid cells instead of by rigid dimples (Fig. 13, not shown), or by semi-resilient stops (Fig. 12, not shown) which comprises a curved bridge portion having flat angled end parts and which are attached to the grid structure by welding at one of the end parts. In the latter case, the overlying leaf members make contact with the curved bridge portions and the limits of lateral vibrations are determined by flexion of the end parts into flat contact with the grid structure whereupon the semi-resilient stops become rigid.

Abstract: 1309445 Thermally insulated containers IMI SANTON Ltd 29 April 1971 [16 April 1970] 18255/70 Heading B5A [Also in Division F4]  Thermally insulated containers, e.g. hot water tanks, refrigerators, are formed by blowmoulding a plastics outer casing, removing a part thereof to form an opening in it, passing an inner casing through the opening to position it within the outer casing and then providing a cellular thermally insulating material between the casings. The thermal insulation may be provided by foam plastics, e.g. polyurethane, either preformed or foamed in situ so as to bond to the outer casing. Foaming may be effected with the inner casing in position so that it is bonded to the foam or against a former of the same size and shape as the inner casing. A backing plate having a preformed layer of foam thereon may be placed on the inner casing so that the inner casing is surrounded by the insulation. Securing brackets may be mounted on the backing plate. The outer casing may be blow-moulded from polyvinylchloride, polypropylene or a polyamide; the inner casing may be a copper hot water cylinder.

Abstract: Feed oil is subject to atmospheric distillation, to thereby be separated into light oil or light distillate and atmospheric residue oil. The light distillate is catalytically contacted with pressurized hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst, resulting in a first hydrotreating step being executed. In this instance, various fractions of the light distillate produced in the atmospheric distillation are subject to hydrotreating in a lump. The atmospheric residue oil is then separated into a light matter and a heavy matter. The light matter is subject to second hydrotreating in the presence of a catalyst to produce refined oil (light matter), which is mixed with refined oil produced in the first hydrotreating to prepare a mixture. The mixture is used as gas turbine fuel oil. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of nimesulide and structurally related compounds in the prevention and/or treatment of neurodegenerative conditions. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that nimesulide exhibits a neuroprotective effect against beta-amyloid induced cell death. Without being bound to any particular theory, it appears that nimesulide inhibits a non-inflammatory mechanism of neurodegeneration.
