Title: Improvements in and relating to process of making vegetable milk
IPC: A23C11/10
Filed: 1937-04-26
Abstract: Vegetable milk is made directly from whole soya beans by grinding the whole bean with added water to break down its cellular structure, adding suitable essential foodstuffs namely a cereal sugar such as glucose or honey and a vegetable fat such as soya, coconut and/or cottonseed oil, together with salt, cooking the mixture by boiling while agitating it, and passing the cooked mixture through a homogenizer.  In the example given, one part by weight of the beans, which may be of a hard white or yellow variety, is soaked in eight parts of water, which is preferably at 60-75 DEG  F., for 6-10 hours and ground to a fine pulp in a burr mill whilst adding a small stream of water.  The product is boiled to cook it and strained through a fine cloth, a centrifuge being employed if desired to assist the straining.  After adding the foodstuffs, the mixture is heated to boiling point with agitation, the boiling being continued for 1/2 -1 hr., until the product is changed to a nutty flavour.  The product is passed through a colloid mill, preferably of the rotating type, and is then cooled and bottled or is pumped direct into the hot air chambers of a milk drying machine for conversion into a powder. Vitamins C and D may be added to the milk in any suitable form, together with dextrose and maltose sugars.

Abstract: 644,357. Controlling aircraft; boundary layer control. STALKER, E. A. Oct. 16, 1946, No. 30799. Convention date, Aug. 22, 1940. [Class 4] The wings of an aircraft are provided with slots in their upper surfaces, which are so controlled that the strongest discharge takes place through the slot on the wing with a lowered control surface, e.g. an aileron, and produces at the same time a rolling moment accompanied by a favourable yawing moment. As shown, inboard flaps 6 and ailerons 4 are carried by full-span flaps 5, slots 8, 8a being formed in the upper surfaces of the flaps through which boundary layer air is sucked by a blower 9, which in turn discharges the air through slots 10, 11 in the flaps 5 and ailerons 4 respectively. The ailerons are operated in the normal manner by chain and sprocket gearing 13, 13a which operates screwed shafts 16 jointed to the ailerons at 16b, the width of the discharge slot 11 of the lowered aileron being increased and that of the raised aileron being decreased. In the fully raised position of the aileron the slot 11 is closed. The increased drag on the lowered aileron is counteracted by the thrust of the air discharged through the associated slot 11, thus reducing the adverse yawing moment. Fig. 8 shows an elevator 21 over which air supplied through the fuselage is normally discharged over the upper and lower surfaces through slots 23, 24. Movement of the elevator increases the width of the slot on the convex side of the surface to augment the control force on the tail plane. Such an arrangement may also be employed with the rudder.

Title: Improved process for the manufacture of yarns of stiff hair or filaments of synthetic material unfit for spinning
IPC: D02G3/14
Filed: 1951-05-23
Abstract: 712,187. Spinning yarns. KUFNER. G. May 23, 1951 [May 24, 1950], No. 12108/51. Class 120(3) At least one filament of "horse-hair" is added to semi-spun yarns of textile material such as cotton during the spinning process. The filament may be horsehair or other natural hair, or a continuous filament of synthetic material, or an endless thread in which successive individual filaments of horse-hair (the ends of which. do not necessarily overlap or abut) are wrapped with spun yarn. The filaments of " horse-hair " may be introduced during the doubling or drafting and/or twisting stages: individual filaments of limited length may be subjected to the drafting action, but a continuous filament or thread is not so subjected, e.g. it is supplied to the last roller of a drafting device.

As shown in Fig. 2, trap 4 contains two mirror-image trap units. The flow tunnel 32 is formed by a curved vane member 31. Alternatively, Fig. 3A (not shown) a pair of tunnels are formed by curved vane members. The material 35 may consist of small pieces of expanded sheet metal lath, wire mesh, marble chips, alumina, nails or metal borings. A screen 36 prevents the material from entering opening 30. Exit tubes 5, 6 are connected to tangential inlets 43 of filters 7, 8. Each filter contains a perforated exhaust tube 44 around which is fitted a pleated filter element 46. The exment 46 may be made of non-woven glass fibre mat or glass paper, the porosity of which may be adjusted by filling with glass microfibres or asbestos. For example, the element may be made of a non-woven high melting point polyamide, e.g. poly(m-phenylene-isophthalamide), fibre mat sewn or needled to one or both surfaces of a coarse fabric scrim or screen. The trap compartment 21 may be filled with a high surface to volume-ratio, gas-pervious material, e.g. wire mesh, to prevent re-entrainment of particulate matter ejected through the openings 28.

Title: Improvements in friction brakes for automobiles or the like
IPC: B60T13/02
Filed: 1930-04-17
Abstract: 355,258. Brakes, AKTIEBOLAGET SPONTAN, Liding÷, Stockholm. April 17, 1930, No. 12196. Convention date, April 20, 1929. [Class 103 (i).] Force-transmitting mechanism; blocks and shoes acting on drums ; actuated of applied by running axle or wheel.-A brake system for motor and like vehicles comprises a primary brake of the resilient self-limiting type adapted firstly to set up a braking movement on the vehicle wheels driven by the cardan shaft and further by this movement to actuate secondary resilient self-limiting brakes on the vehicle wheels. A brake of the resilient selflimiting type comprises shoes which when applied automatically adjust themselves in a position of equilibrium determined by the braking friction acting against a resilient device The primary brake 2 is arranged on the cardar shaft and operates brakes 3 on the vehicle wheels by means of the resilient anchoring devices 38, 39 and lever mechanism. The primary brake 2 comprises brake-shoes 21, 22, Figs. 3 and 5, mounted on a rotatable plate 28 yieldingly anchored by rods 24, 25 connected to the springs 38, 39. The shoes are applied by a ring 33 which can be moved eccentrically about a pivot 35 so as to expand toggle-links 34 connected to the shoe ends, a roller 32 at the junction of the toggle riding on the ring 33. When the shoes are applied these, together with the plate 28 and toggle-levers, turn about the axis of the drum until the torque acting on the shoes is balanced by the springs 38, 39 of the anchoring-rods 24, 25. If there is a sudden increase in friction between the braking surfaces, and consequently a large increase in the torque, the shoes will turn to an angular position such that the pressure between the roller 32 and ring 33 is reduced or ceases, and thus the shoes will leave the drum unless the ring 33 by a follow-up movement of the operating mechanism is adapted to the new position of the shoes. An increased movement of the operating mechanism is thus necessary to maintain an increased frictional moment. The torque is thus dependent upon the position of the operating lever. A similar action is obtained in an internal brake for the wheels in which a floating shoe applies an anchored shoe by providing a resilient anchor. In a modification in which one shoe applies the other in both directions of rotation each shoe is adapted to anchor by means of a member 19 against an anchoring sleeve 17 and a spring is arranged between the member 19 and the shoe. Specifications 283,776 and 286,241, [both in Class 103 (i), Brakes &c.], are referred to.

The arms of the disc 10 are adapted to co-operate with rivet heads 12 in order to form a latch. When the latch is released, the piston can be pushed out out of the cylinder unhindered. Movement of the piston into the cylinder is restricted by the stop ratchet 7, 8 except when the pin 9 is moved axially to disengage the ratchet 7, 8. In a modification, a spiral cam groove, which may contain steps, in a sleeve 13, Fig. 3, is engaged by a pin 14 integral with the piston 2. The end of the cam groove is formed with an eye 20, Fig. 4, for latching purposes. Alternatively the latching means comprises a spring hook on the tensioning head which is adapted to engage a complementary hook on the cylinder, or a spring on the cylinder which is adapted to engage a retaining surface on the head. In other embodiments, spring-loaded locking balls are used. In a further modification a sleeve 30, Fig. 10, has extensions 28 which are adapted to engage spiral threads 29 located in a piston 2<SP>1</SP>.
