Abstract: 809,248. Liquid fuel igniters. CROSS, D. A. March 5, 1956 [March 8, 1955], No. 6744/55. Class 75(3) A device for igniting liquid fuel comprises a cartridge incorporating an inflammable material which collapses when ignited by an electrical resistance wire in an electric circuit which is closed by a temperature controlled switch below a predetermined atmospheric temperature to ignite and release the cartridge. In the arrangement shown in Fig. 1 applied to an orchard heater burning paraffin, petrol or oil, a thermite or similar inflammable material cartridge a having a resistance wire a<SP>1</SP> passing therethrough is mounted on a lid e of a burner part g by being held between metal conductor strips b, b<SP>1</SP>, the strip b<SP>1</SP> of which is pivotally mounted on the lid e and biased to the cartridge holding position by springs c. A bi-metallic strip l when subjected to a given atmospheric temperature, closes an electric circuit from a battery k<SP>1</SP> and leads k to the cartridge a, which is then ignited and falls into the liquid fuel in the burner pot g. When the cartridge a is released the metal strip b<SP>1</SP> is pivoted towards the strip b to disengage a rod d from an aperture d<SP>1</SP> in theb burner pot wall thus allowing the lid e to be pivoted upwards by a spring h to permit the liquid fuel to burn. The battery k<SP>1</SP> can be replaced by remote energy source and the strip I can be replaced by a remote temperature controlled switch.

Title: Method and structure for reduction of shock waves

Filed: 1969-02-10
Abstract: 1,255,212. Reducing sonic shock waves. F. SCHOPPE. 10 Feb., 1969 [14 Feb., 1968], No. 7116/69. Heading B7W. [Also in Division F1] A method of reducing the intensity of sonic shock waves on blunt nosed bodies 10 moving with supersonic speeds relative to a gas consists of the three steps of compressing the oncoming gas by impact with a blunt nose and heating the gas in this small volume of compression 18 and allowing it to expand to approximately the original pressure. In an embodiment a cylindrical body 10 with a hemispherical nose has a gas tube 20 which has openings near the free end to provide hydrogen or other ignitable gas which burns in a cone 30 ignited by an electric arc or spark plug device 34. The tube 20 generates a low shock wave 22, which acts as a flame holder to contain the flame in the volume 18. The effect of the invention is that the strong shock wave originating from the nose, 12 in Fig. 1, disappears when gas is passed through tube 20 and lit, leaving only the low shock wave 22 from the tube 20. Heat may be applied by radiation of electric or nuclear energy and may be applied asymmetrically for steering purposes.

Abstract: 898,617. Pneumatic tyres. GOODRICH CO., B. F. March 3, 1959 [March 7, 1958], No. 7412/59. Class 144 (2). A pneumatic tyre has a tread reinforcement between the tread 11 and carcase 15, comprising a circumferentially inextensible band 20 formed by a double layer continuous winding of inextensible metal cord 21 which zig-zags from edge to edge of the band, across the mid-plane of the tyre, and is wound with a closed loop 22 at each change of direction. As shown, the reinforcement is applied to a carcase comprising a single ply 15 of parallel metal cords disposedsubstantially in radial planes containing the tyre axis, but may be applied to a carcase of crosslaid parallel textile cord plies each having a cord angle with the mid-circumferential line of the tyre of not less than 80 degrees. The band 20 may be wound with each limb of the zig-zag extending at a cord angle of 18 degrees to 25 degrees and with the loops 22 progressing clockwise and counterclockwise at opposite edges of the band. The band may be used alone or in conjunction with a ply of parallel metal cords having a cord angle of 90 degrees. In an alternative construction, Fig. 7, the reinforcement comprises two zig-zag wound bands 60, 63, the successive limbs of the zig-zag of each band extending respectively at cord angles in the ranges of 18 degrees to 25 degrees and 75 degrees to 90 degrees, and the two bands being disposed with their low angle limbs in crossed relation. Alternatively, one of the bands may be replaced by a ply of parallel cords extending at a cord angle equal and opposite to that of the low angle limbs of the remaining band. In all cases the respective bands and plies of the reinforcement may be insulated from each other and from the carcase by a layer of rubber. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 780,765.
