Title: Improved electronic device and method for testing and teaching
IPC: G09B7/08
Filed: 1963-11-19
Abstract: 1,069,259. Teaching machines. J. A. TILLOTSON III, and J. C. MEYER. Nov. 19, 1963 [Dec. 6, 1962], No. 45679/63. Heading G5R. A teaching machine (Fig. 3, not shown) has a record member (67) on which are stored audio signals representing questions, which are playedback over a speaker (25), followed by pulse coded signals indicating which of a number of answers presented to the student by other means is the correct one. The code signals are extracted from the recorder output (at 71) by a filter (76), then shaped (at 78) and fed to a comparator (123) through a de-coder (80). The student presses one of the answer buttons (124) and the comparator indicates whether or not the answer was correct (either visibly or on a hidden counter). The recorder is started automatically, to play back the next question, either when any answer has been given or when the correct answer has been given. Supplementary information may be given if the first answer is incorrect. In the recording apparatus (Fig. 1, not shown) the microphone (12) has its output fed through a band stop filter (14) to a receiver (16). The coder (18) may be of the telephone dial type and gives pulses (19) indicative of the correct answer. The code pulses and the output of an oscillator (22) whose frequency is the central frequency stopped by the filter (14) are fed to an And gate (20) whose output is also fed to the mixer (16). A two-track recorder may be used (Fig. 2, not shown) in which case no filter and mixer are required and the audio and code signals are recorded separately.

Title: Improvements in or relating to therapeutic iron preparation
Inventor: MULLER ARTHUR
IPC: A61K33/26
Filed: 1961-12-20
Abstract: A polymeric g -ferric oxide-hydroxide of formula (g -FeOOH)n is said to be formed in the preparation of a ferric hydroxide-polyisomaltose complex.  An aqueous solution of an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate is added to an aqueous solution of polyisomaltose and an iron salt at 15-25 DEG  C., to give a pH of about 2.6.  Alkali metal hydroxide is then added to form a suspension of pH 11 or more, and the suspension is heated to form a solution.ALSO:A ferric hydroxide-polyisomaltose (i.e. water-soluble dextran) complex comprises 2 mols. of iron per anhydroglucose unit.  The complex, which contains about 33% of iron, is made by adding to an acidic solution of polyisomaltose and a water-soluble iron compound at 15 DEG  to 25 DEG  C., an aqueous solution of an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate, subsequently adding an alkali metal hydroxide, heating the resulting suspension to form a solution and neutralizing the solution.  Specified iron compounds are ferric chloride, acetate, sulphate or nitrate. The solution of the complex may be neutralized, e.g. addition of acids or ion-exchange resins. Electrolytes may be removed by further addition of ion-exchange resins or by dialysis, and the complex may be isolated by precipitation with organic solvents or by evaporation of the solution.  The viscosity of the polyisomaltose may be reduced, if necessary, by heating and subsequently cooling the acids olution of iron compound and polyisomaltose.  Preferably, alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate is added to give a pH of about 2.6, and alkali metal hydroxide to give a suspension of pH not less than 11.  The suspension may be heated to e.g. 90-100 DEG  C.  The polysaccharide is said to complex with a polymeric g -ferric oxide-hydroxide (g -FeOOH)n (Division C1).  The complex is non-colloidal, and has therapeutic properties (Division A5).  Specifications 748,024, Canadian Specifications 623,411, 623,412 and U.S.A. Specification 2,885,393 are referred to.ALSO:A parenterally-injectable composition for the treatment of iron-deficiency anaemia contains an iron hydroxide-polyisomaltose (a water-soluble dextran) complex comprising 2 moles of iron per anhydroglucose unit and containing about 33% by weight of iron.

Abstract: 1,170,759. Pneumatic tyre manufacture. DEERING MILLIKEN RESEARCH CORP. 17 Oct., 1966 [18 Oct., 1965], No. 46371/66. Heading B7C. [Also in Division D1] A method of making pneumatic tyres comprises the steps of forming a carcass in band form, applying to the carcass an extensible breaker strip comprising rubber-coated continuous tyre cord 4 disposed across the breaker strip from one side to the other with reversals of the cord direction at the edges, applying sidewall and tread rubber in flat band form, and finally vulcanizing and shaping this assembly to toroidal form under heat and pressure, whereby the breaker strip's circumference is increased and its width reduced. To achieve its extensibility, the breaker strip consists either of a cellulosic tyre cord which has been exposed while in the relaxed state to the action of liquid ammonia, or a polyester tyre cord which has been treated with a halogenated methane solvent. Rubber shoulder portions may be formed on the sidewall and tread rubber between the lateral edges of the breaker strip and the carcass so that in the finished tyre the strip lies parallel to the plane of the tread surface.

Abstract: 1,125,135. Control valve for material. COAL INDUSTRY (PATENTS) Ltd. 8 Nov., 1965 [13 Nov., 1964], No. 46377/64. Heading B8S. A control valve for material is formed of two elements, element 7 pivoted at 8 and element 6 slid horizontally by a fluid cylinder operating at 12. The material flows downward from hole 1 and through hole 3. Operation.-Normally element 6 is slid to the left to the position shown and the discharge of material through hole 3 is governed by the pivoting movement of element 7. Should however a large lump block the hole then element 6 is slid rightwards to release the lump and is then slid leftwards into its normal position. The movement of the valve may be controlled by the level of material.
