Abstract: 1,235,698. Coated sheet materials. R. L. REX. 30 May, 1968, No. 26005/68. Heading B2E. [Also in Divisions G4 and G6] Desired graphic layouts are obtained by using sheet material one surface of which is capable of receiving graphic material, and the other surface has disposed thereon a layer of magnetic material, an adhesive capable of bonding the sheet material to a laymark being disposed on the layer. The laymark is placed over a magnetic plate and the copy material placed in the desired position. The adhesive is pressure or heat sensitive and is fixed by using a press or roller system. The magnetic material may be a continuous sheet or foil, e.g. of steel, or may be comprised of evenly distributed magnetic particles such as iron powder, in a binder. The first surface of the sheet may be capable of receiving typewritten or printed characters, or may have a coating of a photo-emulsion.

Abstract: 704,809. Variable pitch propellers. ROTOL, Ltd. Oct. 17, 1952 [Nov. 7, 1951], No. 26109/51. Class 114 A propeller has two sets of blades, one set 6 being capable of use as a brake, whilst the other 7 remains under governor control. The piston 10 actuates the blades 7 under the control of the governor valve 21, this piston also being linked by the rod 37 to a valve 27 in the piston 9 connected to the blades 6. With one setting of the second control valve 24 pressure fluid maintains the spacing of the two pistons and hence the blades follow similar pitch movements. When the connections to the conduits 25, 26 are reversed the valve 27 is moved relative to the piston 9 and hence this piston moves to reverse the blades 6.

Abstract: 616,393. Switches held set and freed mechanioally. POWELL, G. F. W., and MOLINS MACHINE CO., Ltd. Sept. 3, 1946, No. 26457. [Classes 38 (iii) and 38 (v)] A switch suitable for controlling 3-phase motors, has an operating lever 6 pivoted by a pin 5 in an oblique slot 4 formed in the arms of a metal bracket 2 attached to an apertured insulating base 1. Another metal bracket 3 supports insulating contact-carrying quadrants 9 by means of a spindle 10. The operating- lever 6 carries a pin 16 which engages driving slots 17 in the quadrants, and a roller 20 which engages grooves 19, 22 in a shaped surface formed in a block 18, the grooves corresponding, respectively, to the rest and full-speed positions of the motor. An axial movement against the action of a spring 21 must be given to the lever to raise the rollers from the groove 19 before it can be moved to the other position, but a purely-pivotal movement of the lever is sufficient to disengage the roller from the relatively-shallow groove 22. One of the quadrants, Fig. 1, carries two contacts 11 pivoted at 13 and urged into engagement with three fixed contacts 15 by springs 14, the other quadrant carrying a single contact 11 which engages a further set of three fixed contacts. The circuit may be as described in co-pending Specification 615,946. Connections (not shown), are taken from the pivots 13 to the anchorages of the springs 14 and thence by leads 26 to terminals 25. A flexible rubber hood 24 protects the switch from dust. In an alternative construction, the brackets 2, 3 and the base 1, form an integral insulating member.

A cam, which opens the grippers 2 of a gripper chain 1 adjacent to a sheet stacking station including a front stop 4, comprises a portion 7 having a slot 10, and a portion 8 pivoted to the portion 7 at 9. The cam is adjustably mounted by means of the slot 10 on the axle 11 of one chain wheel and on a further fixed shaft 12. A stop 17 carried by an arm 16 also mounted on the parts 11, 12 positions the cam portion 8, a surface 18 of which is held in engagement therewith by a spring 19. The cam is adjustable between the full-line and the chain-dotted line positions shown by means of a hand-wheel 15 on a threaded rod 14 connected to one end of a lever 13 the other end of which is connected to the cam portion 7. In the full-line position the cam opens the grippers 2 when they are adjacent to suction grippers 5 which engage the sheet 3 released by the grippers 2 and decelerate it before it abuts against the stop 4. If the suction grippers are not to be used e.g. when sheets of thick paper or cardboard are being delivered, the cam is moved to the dotted line position so as to open the grippers 2 earlier and allow the sheets more time to slow down before hitting the stop 4.

Abstract: 1507078 Puzzle STIFTUNG FUR HUMANIORA UND WISSENSCHAFT 24 June 1975 [24 June 1974] 26796/75 Heading A6H A puzzle comprises a representation of a regular polyhedron (Fig. 1 shows that of a cube) depicting each of the sides of the solid and in which all the vertices which adjoin at a corner of the solid are joined to a common point by straight or curved lines, and a set of pieces (Fig. 2) corresponding to each of the sides and bearing at each corner one of a number of designations equal in number to the number of sides, no two pieces being identical.  The object of the puzzle is to place the pieces on the depicted sides so that, at each corner, no two vertices have the same designation. The designation can be by colour. The polyhedrons have 8, or 20 triangular (octahedron and icosahedron), 6 square (cube or hexahedron) or 12 pentagonal (dodecahedron) sides, three different colours thus being needed for a cube with each square having two adjacent corners of the same colour. A polyhedron of four triangular sides is not of interest as a puzzle. The backs of the pieces may be numbered to assist in finding the solution, -the board bearing the same numbers. Instead of using a board, the polyhedrons may be in solid form and the pieces permanently and rotatably fixed or removably attached. Redundant pieces may be included to make the puzzles more difficult.

Abstract: 526,800. Electric battery lamps. STEVENS, A. H. (Winckler Engineering Laboratories, Inc.). Oct. 2, 1939, No. 27053. [Class 39 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXVI] A battery lamp or similar apparatus comprises a number of cells in a casing containing electrolyte in a breakable container and means for preventing interaction of electrodes of different cells through the electrolyte during operation. As applied to a lamp, the invention provides four inert cells, of which two 11, 12, Fig. 1, are shown, arranged in a case 10 around a breakable electrolyte container 20 which is held over a celluloid cup 24 having vertical walls projecting to a level B between adjacent cells. When the base 22 of the lamp is struck a member 23 is forced against the electrolyte container and breaks it, whereupon the released electrolyte floods the bottom of the casing 10 to a level A. As it is absorbed into the cells its level drops below the level B of the separating walls of the celluloid cup 24 and so prevents interaction between the cells.
