Title: Pill dispenser with indicating dial
IPC: A61J7/04
Filed: 1969-01-30
Abstract: 1,222,647. Pill dispensers. ORTHO PHARMACEUTICAL CORP. 30 Jan., 1969 [20 Feb., 1968], No. 5169/69. Heading B8P. A pill dispenser comprises a base 11 with individual pill compartments 15 and a cover 12 with a pill exit 16 rotatably mounted on the base. An indicating dial 14 is rotatably mounted between the cover and the base and is advanced by one indicium when the cover is rotated to an adjacent pill compartment. The indicating dial is positively connected to the base except when one predetermined compartment is at the outlet position, and when this occurs the indicating dial can be rotated without relative movement of the base and cover. Teeth 46 on the indicating dial 14 are normally engaged by teeth 18 on the base and the dial is advanced one indicium as the next pill compartment is rotated under the outlet 16, reverse rotation being prevented by a ratchet 26. At the one pill position shown in Fig. 5, teeth 18 are replaced by two small teeth 18a with bevelled tops 50 which will rotate the indicator but will also allow rotation of the indicator for resetting the indicium for that cavity. Exit 16 may be temporarily closed by a flap 39 equipped with finger 40 which engages in a recess 42 and prevents relative rotation of the base and cover. The side wall of the lid is serrated to assist gripping.
Patent GB-1253655-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in and relating to electrometers
Inventor: FERMOR JAMES HUGH
IPC: G01R19/18
Filed: 1968-02-01
Abstract: 1,253,655. Voltage measurement. J.H. FERMOR. Jan.27, 1969 [Feb. 1, 1968], No.5267/68. Heading G1U. An apparatus for measuring unidirectional voltage applied at input terminals 17, 18 incorporates a pair of variable capacitors 11, 12 connected in series with a controlled conductive path 10 across the series combination, the path being switchable between closed and open circuit conditions. The input terminals are connected one to the junction between the capacitors and the other to the controlled path, to allow the capacitors to charge from the input when the path is closed. The capacitances of the two capacitors are variable periodically in antiphase by a system 14, to provide across the controlled path an alternating voltage providing a measure of the unidirectional input. The system 14 also controls the operation of the switches such that when these are closed the capacitance values remain steady, while when they are open the capacitors are varied to provide an output signal to an amplifier 19 and indicator 21. The system shown provides an extremely high input impedance and a balanced to earth output. The switches 15, 16 may be electronic switches forming part of the input impedance of the amplifier 19. The frequency of the capacitance variation is arranged to be an integral multiple of half the switch operating frequency. In an alternative arrangement, Fig.4a (not shown) for handling a balanced input, the input is applied to the mid point junctions of two series pairs of capacitors variable in antiphase, the two series arrangements being linked by switch controlled paths, one at each end. An output may be taken across either switch. In another similar arrangement, Fig.4b (not shown) it is arranged that the control paths each incorporate two switches in series with the junction between them earthed. The output is taken between diagonally opposite junctions connecting capacitors to switches, and is balanced about earth, so that it can be fed to a push-pull amplifier. An arrangement for producing a differential output balanced with respect to earth, Fig. 5a (not shown) incorporates two series pairs of capacitors in parallel with one another, each capacitance being varied in antiphase with the capacitances adjacent to it. The input is applied across the junctions of each pair, while the switch control path is connected across the parallel pairs and comprises two switches in series, earthed at the connected terminals and having resistors in parallel across them. The output is taken across the parallel paths. A simplified circuit similar to Fig. 1 but not symmetrical is described, Fig. 6 (not shown). Various forms of variable capacitor suitable for use as the series pairs of capacitors are described Figs. 7b, 8-12 (not shown) and details of a motor drive arrangement for controlling the capacitor variation are shown in Fig. 7a (not shown).

Title: Method for producing ferro-magnetic powdered-iron cores
IPC: H01F1/20
Filed: 1936-02-24
Abstract: In making pressed magnetic cores comprising powdered magnetic material and a plastic insulating binder of slight elasticity, the core is shaped by the application, from one to three times, of a sudden pressure in the form of a blow, the pressure lasting not more than five seconds.  The process can be carried out in a tabloid press such as is used for pharmaceutical products.  The cores may be pressed cold.  The powdered magnetic material may be iron, iron nickel, pure nickel, iron alloys without nickel e.g. Heusler alloy, or iron silicide.  The binder may be shellac or the material known under the Registered Trade Mark "Bakelite."  To the mass may be added also gelatinous waterglass, acetyl cellulose, or polystyrol, produced by evaporating solutions of these substances.  The metal particles may be precoated, e.g. with gelatinous waterglass, before mixing with the binder.
