A bandage to be worn during exercise &c., to aid slimming is extensible, elastic, and impermeable to air and water, there being a fastening element at one end of the bandage such that the bandage may be secured wound about the body with the bandage exerting a pressure of 0.02 to 0.7 kg/cm 2  on the body surface. As shown, the bandage 1 is of a sulphur-free rubber or a soft elastic polyvinyl material which can be wound under tension around the body in partly super-imposed windings. The free end of the bandage is formed with a fastening device 2 which is releasably secured to a cooperating device (3) on the end of a length of elastic ribbon 4 (see also Figures 3, 4, not shown), the ribbon having further fastening devices (5, 6) whereby it may be wound around the chest and secured upon itself. The fastening devices may comprise snap fasteners, press buttons, hooks and eyes, adhesive surfaces, or hook members and cooperating fibrous material. The bandage may be smooth on its inner surface to contact the body and rough on the outer surface, or vice versa, or both surfaces may be either smooth or rough. In an embodiment (Figures 5, 6, not shown) the bandage is provided with fastening devices (8,9) at its two ends, on opposite sides, and is used, without the ribbon 4, about an arm or thigh.

Abstract: 1,256,466. Tool changers. A. MONFORTS. 24 Feb., 1970 [1 March, 1969], No. 8751/70. Headings B3B and B3T. A machine tool comprises a tool changing device 2 for transferring a tool between a tool support located at a machining station and a tool magazine 5 located outside the machining station, the tool support being movable during a machining operation, and is characterized in that the tool support can receive a second tool whilst a first tool is in use, and that during tool transfer between the tool support and the tool changing device a tool-carrier part of the tool changing device can follow the machining movement of the tool support. In the embodiment described a lathe comprises a headstock 23, a workpiece chuck 13, a rotary tool turret having a pair of tool supports 16, 18, a chain conveyer tool magazine 5 and a tool changing device 2. The tool support 16 carries an operative tool 12 and the next operative tool 4 which is placed therein by the changing device 2. This next operative tool 4 is removed from the magazine 5 by a gripper arm 1 which is rotated about the axis of its hydraulic piston rod 7 to align the tool 4 with a receiving socket in the tool support 16. The tool support 16 is rotatable about axis 20 to place the new tool in the operative position. The arm 1 includes a contact 9 which engages a stop 10 in the tool turret and automatically controls the movement of the piston rod 7 as the tool turret moves so that a tool exchange can take place while the operative tool 12 is machining the workpiece 14. To speed up a tool change a further gripper arm and control 30-33 may be provided so that a new tool can be taken from one position of the magazine and the old tool placed back in the said one position; that is, under a numerical control of the machine tool the tools are "tool-coded" rather than "placecoded". In a further embodiment (Figs. 3 and 4, not shown) a two arm gripper is provided on piston rod 7 the arms being movable laterally of the pivot axis to provide variable positions of the grippers. Tool turret.-The headstock 23 supports a pivot shaft 15 which is movable in the direction c and which carries a tool turret which is rotatable about the axis of the shaft 5. The turret carries tool support slides 16, 18 which are movable perpendicular to the said axis. The tool support slide 16 carries the exchangeable tools 12, 4 and the tool support slide 18 carries three tools 21 which may be finishing, non- rotary tools. Each tool support 16, 18 is also rotatable about axis 20.

Abstract: 1,266,896. Bleaching process. UGINE KUHLMANN. 7 March, 1969 [8 March, 1968], No. 12270/69. Addition to 1,073,165. Heading D1P. A process for bleaching grey, ligneous textile material which contains a high proportion of non cellulosic material for example lignin, pectins and hemi-cellulose such as flax, hemp and jute comprising impregnating the grey ligneous fibres with a solution comprising an alkali metal chlorite or alkaline earth metal chlorite, a peroxide or a per-salt as a stabiliser for the chlorite and a buffer salt, removing the excess material from the textile material, and allowing the textile material to remain at ambient or elevated temperatures before washing the same. Non ionic or anionic detergents may be added to the bleaching solution. In the case of fabrics, desizing by a diastasic treatment, or by chemical action using a per salt, peroxide or alkaline bromite may be effected prior to the bleaching with raw flaxes the treatment of the invention may be followed by an additional bleaching process with chlorite, hypochlorite, peroxide or other oxidizing or reducing agent to bring them to full whiteness. The buffer salt may be of a strong base and a weak acid such as acetates, phosphates, borates and alkali metal phthalates which may be present in amounts from 50 to 250% by weight of the anhydrous chlorite, so as to maintain the solution between pH 4.5 and 7 throughout the bleaching process. The bleaching treatment may be effected at 70 to 130‹C by, for example, steam. After the removal of the excess bleach solution, the material may retain 60 to 150% of its weight of the bleach solution. When the chlorite used is sodium chlorite it is present in the bleach solution preferably in the range of 4 to 10% by weight of the textile material and no preliminary treatment may be necessary. After the treatment the textile is washed with detergent solution or water which may be presoftened or softened by addition of sodium carbonate.

Abstract: 1288491 Active delays FERNSEH GmbH 27 Feb 1970 [24 March 1969] 9523/70 Heading H3U [Also in Division G4] A digital shift register is made of diodes, half of which have a substantial charge storage effect. The register shown has four stages, each stage having one diode (31, 33, 35, 37) with a negligible charge storage effect and another diode 32, 34, 36, 38 with a substantial charge storage effect. The latter diodes are connected alternately to a square wave source 41 or to earth. A negative digital input signal (which is not so negative as the negative part of source 41) is received at 30 and, when source 41 is positive, diodes 31, 32 pass a current whose magnitude depends on the level of the digital signal and diode 32 stores charge. When source 41 goes negative diodes 31, 32 no longer conduct but diodes 33, 34 now conduct so the charge stored in diode 32 is effectively transferred to diode 34. Thus the input signal at 30 is successively transferred through the diodes to output 40. The circuitry may be made as an integrated circuit.

In the embodiment described, the terminals 4-19 of the edge connector 30 are linked to terminal W4-W19. Wander plug connections between these terminals and the sockets WS1-WS4, WPBA-WPBE enable the supplies Ov and 24v at the terminals T to be connected to the card in accordance with the circuit configuration under test. Required signals are applied by operating the appropriate ones of the switches S1-S4, PBA-PBD. The circuit cards under test are such that in response to given inputs on terminals 5-19, outputs are provided on terminals 21, 23, and the test unit is arranged such that proper output signals at 21, 23 cause either PL1 or PL2 to light.
