Title: Improvements in or relating to agricultural implements
IPC: A01G23/06
Filed: 1950-02-21
Abstract: 695,710. Agricultural machines. SALMON, N. and OVERSEAS FOOD CORPORATION. April 5, 1951 [Feb. 21, 1950]. No. 4430/50. Class 6(i) Relates to agricultural machines of the type in which a tool-carrying frame is pivctally mounted upon a wheeled carriage in such manner that it can be raised and lowered, and in which releasable locking means are provided to lock the carriage to the frame when the frame is lowered and the tools are in the soil. According to the invention, the locking means is operatively connected to the means which swing the frame relatively to the carriage so as to be unlocked automatically whenever force is applied for raising the tools. The machine shown comprises a frame 11 carrying the root-cutting tools 17 and supported by a carriage or mounting in the form of a swinging boom 12 carrying land wheels 13. The boom comprises a pair of bell crank levers 18, 19, mounted one on each side of the frame 11 and mounted to swing about pivots 14 between stops 26, 28 to raise and lower the frame. As shown in Fig. 2, each stop 28 is adapted to be engaged by a lever 27 which rocks with the boom. The stop is mounted on a plate 30 which can rotate about the axis of the pivot 14 and can be secured in any one of four positions of adjustment by a bolt 31 which can pass through either one of two holes 33 in the plate and any of four holes in a fixed plate 29. The plate 30 carries a housing for a spring-controlled locking bolt 40, which by means of bevelled edges is first depressed and then released by arm 27 when it moves towards the stop 28, the release being effected when the bolt is spring- urged into locking engagement with a hole 39 in the arm. The wheel structure is lowered by a pull on a cable 23 connected to a winch on the towing vehicle and passing around pulleys 24 on the frame and boom. The end of the cable is connected to bell crank levers which are connected by further cables to the bolt. By this means the initial pull on the cable serves to withdraw the locking bolts. When the cable 23 is released to allow the frame to descend by gravity the cables leading to the bolts are slack and the bolts are therefore free to move into the locking positions under the action of their springs. Specifications 695,707 and 695,711 are referred to.

Title: Improvements in hoisting devices
IPC: B66C13/48
Filed: 1967-02-01
Abstract: 1,141,232. Control of two motors. ALLMANNA SVENSKA ELEKTRISKA A.B. 1 Feb., 1967 [2 Feb., 1966], No. 4877/67. Heading H2J. A programming device for a crane comprises cam-shaft controllers which are driven in accordance with the slewing and luffing movements respectively of a load-arm whereby the speeds of the slewing and luffing motors are controlled in accordance with angular positions of the arm. When the load has been hoisted, automatic control is initiated by closing switch 40 in circuit with field windings 21, 39, of Ward Leonard generators which supply the luffing and slewing motors respectively. The direction of slew is selected by closing switch 31, the load being driven along a chosen path and at a chosen speed to a point where it is to be lowered. At first, switch 22 is open to de-energize the luffing motor, the slewing motor running at maximum speed since limit switches 35-38 are closed. After the arm has slewed through 15 degrees, switch 22 closes so that the luffing motor operates at low speed since resistors 18- 20 are in circuit. When the arm has slewed through 25 degrees, switches 26, 29 close to increase the luffing speed, whilst switch 37 opens to reduce the slewing speed. Thereafter the luffing speed is increased in stages and the slewing speed is reduced until the maximum slewing angle is reached whereupon switch 38 opens to stop the slewing motor. When the maximum luffing distance has been reached, switch 25 opens to stop the luffing motor at the final position of the load. Switches 23, 24, open at set luffing distances so that the luffing movement does not exceed the maximum for the respective slewing angle. Some of the cams may be adjustable for setting up different programmes. In modification the crane is provided with A.C. motors, thyristor-fed D.C. motors, or hydraulic motors. Continuous control by means of a potentiometer or other electric position indicator may be provided.

Title: Improvements in and relating to electric discharge devices
IPC: H01J7/18
Filed: 1956-02-16
Abstract: 825,938. Thermionic valves. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Feb. 16, 1956 [Feb. 16, 1955], No. 4878 /56. Class 39(1). In an electric discharge device, Fig. 1, wall charging due to electron bombardment of the tube envelope is eliminated by a metal preferably lead coating 15 ; the coating covers an annular area between the bottom of a cylindrical anode 3 and the top of a shield 7. The device may be a regulator; or as shown a high voltage rectifier, in television receivers and the effect of wall charging to be eliminated is the production of black vertical lines on parts of the roster e.g. at the left hand edge. The principle of manufacture is that an anode with a rolled rim is dipped in a basic lead carbonate suspension, placed on a board to drain and heated in an oven to evaporate the liquid vehicle, Fig. 3 (not shown) ; a plurality of anodes can be processed together. In a practical manufacturing process, Fig. 4, the anodes are passed along a conveyer belt 25 or chain drive with clamping means or magnetic holding means to hold them by their top caps, and at the first station equal doses of lead carbonate suspension are fed through valve 30 for each anode rim. Draining is thus unnecessary and the anodes can be immediately dried in an oven which is longer than in Fig. 3 (not shown). The lead material can be formed by rolling a sheet of lead into a cylinder and immersing in methanol for 24 hours, to obtain a suspension of a lead-methanol corrosion product, or can be made by mixing 450 gms white lead with 300 ccs amyl acetate to a paste ball milling for 92 hours and adding 1¢ ccs paste to one gallon acetone. The suspension is preferably agitated during the coating process. The suspension may be of metallic lead. Alternatively, lead or a compound thereof, can be directly placed or deposited in the rim. The envelope may be of lime glass or for higher voltages lead glass. Flashing of the material at 800-900‹C. to deposit on the tube wall may be effected by an induction coil while this coil is also serving to degas the anode ; the flashing may alternatively be effected in vacuo. The lead generating material can be held in any desired manner adjacent the area to be coated instead of being deposited in the rim. It can be arranged on or deposited on a support separate from the anode or on a separate electrode arranged to be heated and flashed by passing current through the electrode via the valve fins. 6 is a filament or cathode. Specifications 238,265 and 290,301 [both in Class 39(i)] are referred to.
