Abstract: 1,052,159. Bowden mechanisms; pipe connections. AMERICAN CHAIN & CABLE CO. Inc. April 26. 1965 [July 30. 1964], No. 17431/65. Headings F2G and F2K. [Also in Division E2]  The casing 10 of a cable assembly having an axially translatable core 11 is secured in an opening 18 in a housing wall 20 by an anchor member 12 having prongs 13 and a resilient elastomeric seating member 28 gripping the wall therebetween. The distance between the ends of the prongs and the seating member is less than the thickness of the wall so that the seating member is compressed to provide a watertight joint which resists movement. The prongs 13 are made of high carbon steel and deflect inwardly to permit mounting of the anchor member in the opening 18. The prongs may be formed integrally with the anchor member 12 or (Figs. 10-12, not shown) are formed on a separate sleeve mounted on a reduced portion of the member 12. As shown the seating member 28 is moulded to the member 12. In the modification of Figs. 10-12 (not shown) the seating member is provided by an 0-ring 111 supported by a flange 110 of the anchor member. In other embodiments (Figs. 6-9a, not shown) the anchor member is mounted at an angle to the housing wall, the ends of the prongs and the plane of the seating member being angled for this purpose.

Abstract: 1,052,895. Plutonium oxidation. COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE. April 1, 1964 [April 9, 1963], No. 13463/64. Heading G6R. Plutonium is oxidized in acid solution from the trivalent to the tetravalent state by the action of nitrous vapours. The solution treated may be obtained by extraction of an organic phase containing uranium and plutonium with aqueous nitric acid in the presence of a reducing agent, for example iron sulphamate. The oxidation is effected in a packed glass column down which the solution flows in countercurrent to the nitrous vapours. The vapours may be produced by reacting nitric acid with formaldehyde or with metallic iron or copper. The solution treated may alternatively be a sulphuric acid or a mixed sulphuric and nitric acid solution.

Abstract: 1,228,602. Transmission line filter networks. SINCLAIR RADIO LABORATORIES Inc. 13 June, 1968 [14 June, 1967], No. 28177/68. Heading H1W. A notch filter for passing and rejecting two closely spaced frequencies comprises a signal transmission line 1 coupled to a quarter-wave resonator 2 by a quarter-wave section 4 and a variable reactance, e.g. a stub 3, similarly coupled to the line. By virtue of the impedanceinverting properties of section 4, the resonator creates a high impedance at point A at the resonant frequency which is to be transmitted. The combined effect of resonator 2 and reactance 3 produces an antiresonance which causes a short-circuit to appear at point A at the frequency to be rejected. The response of the filter may be varied by varying the coupling 10 of the resonator 2. The resonator 2 preferably has a high Q. The stub 3 may be replaced by a capacitor or an inductor. The network may be used in a duplexer arrangement comprising a transmitter and a receiver coupled to a common antenna and utilizing closely adjacent frequency bands.
