Patent GB-2464403-A (GB)
Title: Modifying a relaxed ordering attribute for a read completion transaction
Inventor: HARRIMAN DAVID J
IPC: G06F13/16
Filed: 2009-10-15
Abstract: The invention relates to relaxing the ordering of a read completion by a Completer setting an ordering attribute in the read completion, e.g. setting a Relaxed Ordering (RO) attribute in a read completion header. The relaxed ordering allows the read completion to bypass pending writes. The invention is applicable to peripheral component interconnects, such as PCI Express (PCIe) interconnects. Conventionally, transaction ordering attributes, such as a Relaxed Ordering (RO) bit, must be set by a Requester and the RO bit in a completion header is only set if it was set in a corresponding request. The invention allows an IO device such as Endpoint 1 (i.e. a Completer) to modify the ordering attribute of a completion (e.g. by marking the completion for RO) based on the device's understanding of the transaction specific requirements. The invention may be applied to ordering attributes other than RO provided that a Completer has the knowledge to determine if completion ordering can safely be modified from default behaviour.

Class 38(5) A device for detecting the sudden rise in pressure produced by an incipient fire or explosion and bringing suppressing apparatus into play comprises a diaphragm 4 separating two chambers one of which has a second movable wall 6 subject to the changing pressure and of corrugated or bellows formation. The device may be placed in the vapour space of a tank containing petrol. Gauze 7 protects from liquid splashing. A bleed hole 4a normally equalizes pressure above and below the diaphragm but a sudden rise of pressure will move the diaphragm to bridge contacts 13. In a modification, Figs. 2 and 3 (not shown) there are two diaphragms carrying co-operating contacts and arranged on opposite sides of a spacing member while on the opposite sides of the diaphragms are two flexible walls responsive to the change of pressure. This device may be mounted in the vapour space of a fuel tank or below the liquid and at ground level or at high altitude. In Fig. 6, a contact disc 60 is held in the position shown by a magnet 63 and lies between two chambers bounded respectively by a wall 70 and a cup 67 carried by a bellows 66. The device may be fixed to an aircraft fuel tank and at high altitudes the air in the two chambers which are connected by a bleed hole 60a, will expand so that the cup and bellows assume the dotted position. An explosion will press down the cup 67 and the disc 60 will be blown off its seating closing a circuit at 74. Fig. 8 shows a device adapted to be fixed to the side of the tank of an electro-detarrer and comprising a snap-action diaphragm 400 carrying a contact 400a and movable through a dead-centre position in response to pressure transmitted through a diaphragm 23 and an acid-resistant diaphragm d.

Patent GB-762397-A (GB)
Title: Process for printing or dyeing fibres of polyacrylonitriles
IPC: C09B11/26
Filed: 1954-04-06
Abstract: Polyacrylonitrile fibres are dyed or printed with a compound containing or capable of forming a cation which is free from sulphonic acid groups and corresponds to the formula <FORM:0762397/IV(b)/1> in which R1 and R2 represent aryl residues, at least one of which contains an amino group, and R represents hydrogen or a nonaromatic organic residue, the compound being fixed on the fibre in the form of a salt of which the cation corresponds to the above formula.  The salts may be prepared in the dyebath, or prior to use, or on the fibre, by treating the appropriate carbinol of the formula <FORM:0762397/IV(b)/2> or the ethers of the formul <FORM:0762397/IV(b)/3> or <FORM:0762397/IV(b)/4> with an acid or acid reacting or acid-forming substance such as acetic, chloracetic, propionic, oxalic, benzoic, salicylic, adipic, boric, hydrochloric, sulphuric or naphthalene sulphonic acid, the disodium salt of 1:8 - dioxynaphthalene - 3:6 - disulphonic acid, N - acetyl - para - toluene sulphonic acid amide and diethyl tartrate.  When salt formation is effected on the fibre the acid may be previously or subsequently applied.  The compounds may also be applied in the form of zinc chloride double salts.  As an alternative, compounds which readily split up to yield the anions necessary for salt formation, such as the sulphuric acid esters and aryl- or alkyl-sulphonic acid esters of the above carbinols, may be employed.  R1 and R2 may be benzene or naphthalene residues and the amino group may be primary, secondary or tertiary.  R may be an aliphatic, alicyclic or heterocyclic residue and advantageously one bound by a tertiary carbon atom, e.g. a tertiary butyl residue.  Sparingly soluble salts may be applied by the dispersion dyeing technique. Dyeing is preferably effected in an aqueous bath at raised temperatures and the dyeings may be subsequently steamed or subjected to a heat treatment. Numerous examples are given.

Abstract: 572,143. Making projectiles and other cupped articles. AUTOMATIC DIE & PRODUCTS CO. June 24, 1943, No. 10234. Convention date, June 4, 1942. [Classes 83 (ii) and 83 (iv)] Punching; cupping.-In making cartridges, shells, or other thin-walled metal articles with a thick, closed base, a disc is acted on by a series of dies and punches of progressively smaller diameter, the die and punch at some of the stages causing the base of the blank to contract radially and thus increase its thickness. The discs K, Fig. 2a, may be cut out, without being completely severed, from an intermittently fed strip A by a cutter 20, Fig. 3a, which forms two part-circular slots or cuts 15, but leaves connecting strips 16, and, after a further feed, by a cutter 21 which forms two part-circular cuts 17, but leaves connecting strips 19. The next punches 24, 26 form a cup from the disc K and deepen it. The punches 31 ... 43, Fig. 3b, draw the cup, progressively increasing its depth and reducing its wall thickness, and, by reason of the shoulder 34 at the bottom of each die, contract the base radially. The die recesses co-operating with punches 58, 61 have closed bottoms and with said punches give the desired form to the bottom of the cup, e.g. a primer cavity 59 may be formed and informative matter may be embossed. The last punch 63 severs the finished article from its supports 19 and on the return of said punch the article is stripped by the die and falls down a bore P into a receptacle. Each time the punches are raised, the strip A is separated therefrom by a stripper plate 65 and from the dies by ejectors, not shown, and it is then advanced by rollers D, Fig. 1, as described in Specification 562,652. When the press is closed, the upper roller of each pair is raised by a lever 100 and a cam 101 mounted on a member 102 attached to the cross-head E which carries the punches. The machine may be duplex as shown in Fig. 2a. Gauge holes 11 may be formed in the strip by punches 13 and engaged by fingers 12.

Abstract: 468,531. Fluorescent screens. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd., and GENERAL ELECTRIC CO., Ltd. April 9, 1936, No. 10604. Convention date, April 11, 1935. Drawings to Specification. [Class 98 (i)] [Also in Group XXIII] In applying a coating of luminescent material to a vitreous surface within or forming part of a gas or vapour filled electric discharge tube, the vitreous body is coated with the material, preferably by applying the powdered material to a layer of binder such as glycerine, and the whole surface of the body is then subjected to a gas pressure above 1À25 atmospheres, usually of the order of 10 or 20 atmospheres whilst heated to a temperature at which it is soft. The material thus becomes embedded in the surface and the binder is evaporated, the resulting vapour being removed by finally evacuating the electrically heated drum in which the body is subjected to the gas pressure. During the heating, the drum is rotated to prevent distortion of the body by gravity. The interior surface of the envelope of a discharge lamp may be coated by this process, and the creation of pressure and a vacuum may be repeated several times. Specification 421,955 is referred to.
