Patent GB-1081667-A (GB)
Title: Method of preparing solid stable preparations of sensitive active substances
IPC: A23P20/10
Filed: 1966-04-09
Abstract: A solid, stable, pharmaceutical preparation is prepared by dissolving the active substance and a physiologically acceptable, water-dispersable cellulose derivative separately or together in an inert non-aqueous solvent (or, in the case of separate solutions, in two miscible non-aqueous solvents), combining the solutions if two are used, removing the solvent and drying the residue to give a fine dispersion of the active substance in the cellulose derivative. Suitable cellulose derivatives are methyl-, hydroxy-, propyl- and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose.  Examples relate to preparations comprising Vitamins D2 and D3, Vitamin D3-cholesterol, 1a , 7a -diacetyl-thio-17a -methyl testo-sterone, ethinyl estradiol and chloramphenicol.  Additives, e.g. antioxidants and fluidity and grinding improvers such as highly dispersed silicic acid, CaCO3, and calcium, aluminium and magnesium silicates may be included in the preparations, which may be tableted and made up into any conventional solid formulation.

Title: Improvements to braiding machines
Inventor: CARTER ERIC
IPC: D04C3/00
Filed: 1954-06-16
Abstract: 777,841. Braiding. CARTER & CO., Ltd., B. & F. June 15, 1955 [June 16, 1954], No. 17640/54. Class 74 (1). Yarn coming from each package 29 of a high-speed braiding machine is braked by a pad 37 bearing resiliently against the periphery of the package with a pressure which is proportional to the package diameter, the pad being carried by a plate 36 rotatable about a bar 38 and urged towards the package by helical springs 40 one end of each of which is anchored in a hole in the bar 38, whilst the other end bears against the back of the plate 36. The bar 38 is rotatable and, at one end, has a handle 41 shaped to engage with any desired one of notches 42, the bar being urged axially by a spring 43 to maintain such engagement. Thus, by suitable positioning of the handle 41, the initial pressure exerted by spring 40 can be shown; and this pressure will decrease as the package diameter decreases and the spring consequently unwinds. The yarn from each package in a carrier 25 passes first over a roller 33, next over a member 35 which flies up under the action of centrifugal force, if the yarn breaks, to contact a switch and stop the machine, and finally through an open eye 25b, to the braiding point. The yarn from each package in a carrier 26 passes first under a roller 48 at the free ends of rockable links 49, so that centrifugal force causes the roller to exert on the yarn a force proportional to the speed of the machine, preventing ballooning and providing a reserve of yarn. The yarn then passes a V-pulley 45 and through eyes 46, 47 on an articulated arm 27, which is moved up and down by cam means to interbraid the yarns of the two sets as the machine operates. An extension of one of the links 49 actuates a machine stopping device if the yarn breaks. Spiders 13, 14 are driven from a main shaft 17, through gears 18, 19 and 20, 21 respectively. The spider 14 bears the carriers 26; and carriers 25 are driven, in the opposite direction, from spider 13 through a toothed rim 23 thereon, gears 22 rotatably mounted on the spider 14 and teeth 24 on the undersides of the packages 25,slidably mounted on the spider 14.

Title: Free-wheel drives for motor-vehicles
IPC: B60K17/26

Abstract: 395,151. Freewheel clutches. HARDY, SPICER, & CO., Ltd., HARDY, E. J., HARDY, J. L., and DANIELL, J. A., Birch Road, Witton, Birmingham. June 23, 1932, No. 17729. [Class 80 (ii).] In an automatic freewheel drive for motor vehicles employing opposed one-way roller clutches, the rollers of the reverse-drive clutch are mounted in a cage which is prevented by a centrifugally-operated catch from moving to operative position above a predetermined speed. There may be separate sets of rollers for the forward and reverse drives, or, as shown, one set may be employed for driving in both directions. Rollers 9, mounted in a cage 10, are arranged between a driven drum 8 and a polygonal driving member 2 connected to the gear-box tail-shaft, each roller coacting with a flat to effect forward and reverse drives. A pawl 13, pivoted on the member 2 and spring-biassed towards the axis of the member, coacts with a peg 14 on the cage 10, the arrangement being such that below a predetermined speed the pawl is clear of the peg, thus affording bidirectional drive, while above that speed the pawl flies out and engages the peg, as shown in Fig. 3, thus affording unidirectional drive only. Specification 383,701 is referred to.

Abstract: 1,115,536. Container closures; closing devices on bags; portable containers. A. M. HERZIG. 18 April, 1967, No. 17755/67. Headings B8D, B8K and B8T. A bag 20, or other container, has a neck 22 of flexible material to which is secured a resilient member 42 having a permanent set, as shown, which causes the neck 22 to be bent and therefore to close the container. The bag 20, of elastomeric material, polyethylene or vinyl plastics, is collapsible to allow the contents to be squeezed out through the neck 22, the pressure so applied causing the neck and member 42 to straighten. The bag may be formed from a tubular material which is narrowed at the neck and heat-sealed at 34, 35, the opposite end being similarly sealed at 24. The member 42 may be secured to the neck by gluing or sealing or by tabs 46, 47; it may be of metal or plastics. The container may be rigid and have a flexible neck to which a member 42 is attached. One of the layers of material at the neck may be less flexible than the other. The contents may be oil or toothpaste.

[Class 38 (iv).] A choke for regulating the primary current of a polyphase transformer supplying current for welding &c., is provided with a number of tappings to each phase winding, and switching means whereby an appropriate tapping from each winding can be connected to a star point or a phase supply conductor so as to give a number of star or polygon connected control stages respectively. As shown, gas rectifying tubes 6, 7, 8 are supplied from split secondary windings of a three-phase transformer 1 in the primary circuit of which windings A122, A220, A321 of the choke are connected. The switching means comprises three rows of sleeve contacts mounted on an insulating base 23, the upper row being connected in cyclic order to the supply leads of the choke, the lower row mutually connected to form a star point, whilst the middle row 11 . . 22 are connected (leads not shown) to corresponding 'tapping points 11 .. 22 on the choke in cyclic order of the phases and also in order of the distances of the tapping points from the initial point of the winding. Connection between the contacts is made by a plug 24 carrying six pair-wise connected pins which either bridges any three successive pairs of the lower rows of contacts to give a series of star connected control stages, or three successive pairs of the upper rows to give a series of delta connected stages. The preferred form of choke, Fig. 4, comprises, in effect, three shell-type single-phase chokes assembled together with two of the yokes omitted.
