Abstract: 239,112. Rasoir Apollo. Dec. 2, 1924, [Convention date]. Razors, safety. To ensure that the same face of the thin blade of a safety razor is always in contact with the guard, the blade is provided with cut-out parts asymmetrically disposed relatively to the longitudinal and transverse axes thereof and which are engaged by studs or lugs similarly positioned on the holder. As shown the thin blade 4 has notches at its sides which are engaged by the plugs 5, 6 of the cap or backing 3 of the blade holder and the blade must always be placed on the guard 2' with the same face adjacent thereto; the lugs and notches are symmetrically disposed relatively to the centre of the blade and holder so that the blade can be turned through an angle of 180 in the holder. The blade may have perforations and the holder studs similarly arranged; the asymmetrical perforations or notches in the blade may have portions symmetrically arranged relatively to the longitudinal and transverse axes thereof so that the blade may be used in the usual manner in ordinary holders having positioning studs or lugs symmetrically arranged thereon. When the blade has a single cutting-edge, a single notch asymmetrically arranged is used and the blade may be used in the ordinary razors having no positioning lugs or studs.

In an apparatus for coating eggs with a preservative liquid having a conveyer track on which egg carriers are advanced in succession, and a dipping vessel at an interruption in the track, where also is an elevator for supporting an egg carrier and carrying it into and out of the dipping vessel, the track is formed by rails on which the egg carriers can slide, the support for the carrier forms a connection between the interrupted rails, there is provided mechanism for intermittently advancing a carrier on the rails towards the elevator, and the elevator is operated by a system of rods comprising at least one link parallelogram from four axles of which two are 'stationary and mounted one above the other and the other two are. connected with the elevator so that one of them is above the plane of the upper stationary axle when the elevator is in its highest position, i.e. the position in which the egg carrier support is a continuation of the feed rails, with the result that upon descent of the elevator the support initially swings away from the feed rails disposed in front thereof. With the apparatus of Fig. 1, frames 2 of eggs on rails 3 are slid successively from a supply end 4 into a support 12 on side rods 13, are lowered into a tank 6 of oil, are raised again, and are slid on rails 3' to a discharge end 5. Lowering and raising of the support 12 are effected by parallelograms of rods to stationary axles 18 and 19 from axles 14 and 15 on the rods 13, the lower rod 20 of one parallelogram being pulled downward and then pushed upward by a rod 21 having at its lower end a roller 17 which rolls upon a continuously rotating cam 16. When the support 12 has risen after the dipping of a frame of eggs, the next frame is drawn into the support bv an arm 27 which is also operated by the cam 16 through the agency of a lever 25 on a rod 24 from an eccentric pin 23 on the cam.

Title: Bistable transistor circuit arrangements

Filed: 1972-01-26
Abstract: 1323980 F E T bi-stable circuits SIEMENS AG 26 Jan 1972 [16 March 1971] 3548/72 Heading H3T A memory cell receiving a pulsed power supply 3 consists of three F.E.T.s and capacitors connected as shown. An input 1 or 0 is applied at 1-2, so that for example a 1 holds F.E.T. 4 conductive which prevents F.E.T. 5 conducting when the next power supply pulse at 3 passes through C6. The same pulse is therefore applied through C7 to F.E.T. 9 gate to turn it on, so that C8 is replenished by the power supply pulse now able to flow through F.E.T. 9. If a 0 is stored, conversely, F.E.T. 4 is off, so that F.E.T. 5 conducts in response to a power supply pulse and prevents F.E.T. 9 from conducting, so maintaining zero charge on C8. The output is also taken from terminals 1, 2.

Abstract: 607,630. Walls; bricks. ABBEY, A. (Bohn. A. J.). Feb. 6, 1946, No. 3713. [Classes 20(iv) and 87(i)] A cavity wall is built of small thickness by bonding the inner and outer walls together by L-shaped bricks 10, the depth, length L and width W of which are the same as for a standard brick. The plain bricks 11 have the same width as have the limbs of the L-shaped bricks, and the short limb of the brick in one course overlies and underlies the short limbs of the bricks in the courses below and above. When a corner is built with the L-shaped bricks a box-like cavity is left, and spacer units 12 may be used if the bond so requires. Some short limbs may be directed outwardly from the inner wall, to key with a partition wall. A wall having an intermediate partition, and two cavities, may be built by arranging the short limbs of the L- shaped bricks in the intermediate wall to face, in some cases, towards the outer wall to bond therewith, and, in other cases, towards the inner wall to bond therewith. The short limbs may have through holes which register in the bond and receive reinforcing rods.

Abstract: 704,162. Fluid speed meters. NATIONAL RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. May 8, 1952 [Feb. 19, 1951], No. 3997/51. Class 97(2) In a fluid speed meter of the kind in which the rate of flow is determined by the cooling effect of the fluid on an electrical heater, a thermo-couple is mounted with its hot junction close to the heater and its cold junction sufficiently remote from the heater as to be unaffected by the heat therefrom, and a shield for the heater and hot junction is shaped to direct part of the fluid over the heater and hot junction when the part of the meter carrying them is immersed in the flowing fluid, the heater and hot junction being electrically insulated from one another and from the fluid. As shown, the heater 1 is in the form of a hairpin loop of resistance wire the limbs 2, 3 of which are threaded through bores 4, 5 of a silica tube 6. Two wires 7, 8 of dissimilar materials are threaded through aperture bores 9, 10 in tube 6 and are united at 11 to form the hot junction and at 13 to form the cold junction of the thermo-couple. Leads from the heater and thermo-couple pass through a co-axial silica tube 12, the two tubes 6, 12 being housed in a metal tube 15 terminating above the lower end of tube 6. Cemented joints are made at the two ends of tube 15 and a cement covering is provided at the lower end of the tube 6 to prevent access of the fluid to the conductive parts. The exposed part of tube 6 is shielded by a member 16 as of metal which terminates below heater 1 and hot junction 11 and is provided with an inlet 18 for the fluid which flows past the heater and hot junction at a speed less than, but related to, that of the free stream. The heater is supplied with electrical energy at a known rate and the fluid speed is determined from a recorder or indicator connected to the thermocouple by the leads passing through tube 12. In a further form, the two silica tubes 6, 12 are disposed at right angles, and the shield 16 is closed at the end adjacent the heater and hot junction and provided with a fluid outlet as well as a fluid inlet.
