Title: Removing moulded components from a moulding machine
IPC: B29C37/00
Filed: 1979-05-11
Abstract: Apparatus is provided for automatic and organized interception and removal of components from a continuously operating machine, for example a compression moulding press. The machine includes a stationary portion (2) and a moveable portion (3), which latter may be displaced so as to engage the stationary portion, thereby forming a complete mould into which plastic may be injected so as to form a number of individual components. Two gear wheels, one shown as (20), are secured to a common shaft (A). One of said gear wheels is rotated by the movement of the moveable tool portion (3) (operated by the machine) and thereby rotates the shaft (A), whereby the second gear wheel (20) is rotated by the resulting motion of said shaft (A). Hereby introduction of an interception member (12), for collecting moulded articles, between the tool portions (2, 3) when the latter are not in engagement with each other is controlled, as also is the removal of the interception member (12') from between the two tool portions (2, 3) when the moveable tool portion (3) is beginning to close in on the stationary tool portion (2) is controlled. <IMAGE>

Title: Dyeing Method
IPC: D06P5/20
Filed: 1980-02-27
Abstract: In dyeing keratinous fibres, such as wool, by impregnating the fibres with aqueous compositions containing dyes, followed by storage in the moist condition, a higher level of fixation, enabling heavier shades to be obtained with cheaper dyes, is achieved by raising the temperature of the stored fibres by means of radio frequency heating. The storage temperature is preferably between 40 and 80 DEG C, which usually requires about 0.05 kw hour/kg fibres. Acid, milling chrome and premetallised dyes can be used, as well as reactive dyes and substantative optical brighteners. The fibres are cuttled into an insulated plastics material cart located between a pair of electrodes in an r.f. chamber. One electrode is fixed and the other is adjustable so that the r.f. load acting on the fibres may be set at a desired value.

Patent GB-816060-A (GB)
Abstract: 816,060. Surface discharge sparking plugs. BENDIX AVIATION CORPORATION. March 5, 1956 [March 16, 1955], No. 6861/56. Class 7(4) [Also in Group XXXVI] In a semi-conductor body suitable for use as a gap bridge in an igniter comprising at least one oxide readily reducible in hydrogen, at least one refractory oxide irreducible under similar conditions, and kaolin, the reducible oxide is partially reduced in a surface region of the body. Examples of irreducible oxides given are those of Li, Rb, K, Sr, Ba, Ca, Na, Mg, A1, B, U, Mn. and of reducible oxides CuO, NiO and CrO and oxides of elements below Mn in the electromotive series but the preferred material comprises 40 per cent by weight titanium dioxide, 30 per cent zirconium silicate and 30 per cent kaolin. The components are milled together in a ball mill, placed in pans to dry after which the mixture is granulated through a 24 mesh screen and mixed with a binder consisting of piccolastic resin, "Sterotex" and "Esso" caloria (Registered Trade Mark) oil in a hot mixer. It is then cooled and broken up into 8 mesh pieces which are dry pressed into slugs. The slugs are heated to a plastic state, moulded under pressure in preheated moulds, baked to remove the organic material, and then fired to pyrometric cone 15 down. The resulting units are shaped for insertion in the gap of an igniter and heated in a reducing atmosphere containing hydrogen to effect a reduction of the titanium dioxide in the surface region thereby increasing the conductivity. The high conductivity material is then ground off except in the region which is to lie adjacent to the spark gap so that in operation current is confined to this region. Specification 706,728 [Group V] is referred to.

Title: Molecular beam deposition on a plurality of substrates
IPC: C30B23/02
Filed: 1982-03-25
Abstract: In molecular beam deposition carried out in an evacuated growth chamber 30, platen 500 holding a plurality of substrates 550 is rotated by means of a shaft 318 and a motor 320 so as to bring the substrates 550 in turn into the path of a molecular beam whilst the substrates are kept at a suitable temperature by heating means 324. With this arrangement a plurality of substrates can be processed simultaneously and the problem of flakes of material falling into the molecular beam sources is avoided thus enabling vertical sources to be used. An analytical chamber 20 and input/output chambers 10, 40, communicating with each other and the growth chamber 30 via valves 11, 21, 31 and a carrier 230 for moving platens from chamber to chamber enable a number of platens-full of substrates to be processed without bringing the growth chamber 30 to atmospheric pressure. <IMAGE>
Patent GB-2100520-A (GB)
Title: Making conductive holes in printed circuit boards
IPC: H05K3/40
Filed: 1982-04-13
Abstract: Conductive ink is passed one or more times through the holes 11 made in the support board 1 which, having been inserted between two semirigid stencils 2 in order to obtain adequate mechanical resistence, divides two chambers 4, 7 with variable volumes from each other. The volume of the chamber containing the ink diminishes, or is reduced, as it is forced through the holes, whilst the volume of the other chamber increases as the ink is sucked in. Once a predetermined quantity of ink has been transferred from one chamber to the other, the process is reversed; the entire cycle may be repeated several times over, until an adequate layer of ink has been deposited on the walls of the holes. <IMAGE>
Patent GB-821164-A (GB)
IPC: H02K41/03
Abstract: 821,164. Controlling nuclear reactors. YOUNG, J. N. Feb. 12, 1957 [Sept. 10, 1956], No. 4747/57. Class 39(4). [Also in Group XXXV] Apparatus for moving a control element longitudinally in steps comprises a flexible extension to the control element, a first gripping unit, two mover coils arranged either side of this unit, a second gripping unit, gripper coils associated with each gripping unit and means for energizing the coils in sequence so that the flexible extension is gripped by the first gripping unit and moved by energizing a mover coil then gripping the extension by the second gripping unit. The flexible extension may comprise fixed rods 10 surrounded by gripping units 13 and 44 of magnetic steel, the rods being an extension of a nuclear reactor control element 10a. To raise the element one step coils 29 are energized so that the gripper 13 deflects the rods and grips them, mover coil 30 is energized to raise the gripper unit, coils 43 are energized to hold the extension in its new position and then coils 29 and 30 are deenergized and coil 31 energized so that the gripping unit 13 is returned to its lower position. A non-magnetic liner 25a separates the first gripper unit from a pressure housing 16 which is of magnetic material in sections separated by non-magnetic welds 25. In a modification shown in Fig. 5 the flexible extension takes the form of a number of flexible strips 59 surrounding the gripper units and mover and gripper coils. The same sequence is used for stepping the element. In this ease the interior of the gripping unit can be cooled by a fluid forced through a tube 88 and returning through a tube 87. In both cases movement is transmitted by a magnetic means through the pressure housing so that seals are unnecessary.
