Filed: 1981-05-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne une tête de nouage d'un lien L sur 
un emballage ainsi qu'une machine comportant cette tête de 
nouage. La tête de nouage comprend deux postes supérieur 
P1 et inférieur P2 destinés:

poussant contre une longueur de lien L dressée verticalement 
entre les deux guide-fils des postes supérieur P1 et inférieur 
P2 d'une tête de nouage, agencés sur deux plateaux 3 et 4 
d'une machine M.  
- dans une deuxième temps, à amener les deux V 
constituant le guide-fil du poste P2 à une position plus haute 
que celle de l'oeillet 7 constituant le guide-fil du poste P1,  
- dans un troisième temps, à faire subir à l'oeillet 7 une 
ou plusieurs rotations autour d'un axe vertical,  
- dans un quatrième temps, à prendre et à bloquer dans 
un organe de préhension 11 l'extrémité de lien engagée,  
- dans un cinquième temps, à dégager cet organe 11 
des spires de lien L dessinées autour de lui par l'autre extrémi­
té de lien L, sous l'effet des rotations décrites par l'oeillet 7,  
- et dans un sixième temps et dernier temps, à appliquer 
des forces de sens opposés sur les deux extrémités du lien L, 
afin de serrer le noeud ainsi réalisé.  
     L'invention qui concerne également une machine utilisant 
une telle tête de nouage s'applique notamment au nouage de 
lien sur des produits de charcuterie comme le saucisson.
Patent EP-0084214-A3 (EP)
IPC: G05D16/20
Filed: 1982-09-30
Abstract: The present invention entails a current to pressure (I/P) 
transducer for converting andelectric signal to a proportional 
pressure signal over a given span. Essentially the I/P 
transducer comprises a housing having a membrane with 
magnetic and metal properties extending across and over a 
seat area. An air supply inlet is provided within said housing 
as well as a pneumatic output port. Typically, at least a 
portion of the inlet air supply is directed between the seat 
and membrane and out the output port. The pressure of the 
fluid passing from the output port becomes the produced 
proportional pressure signal of the I/P transducer.  
     Wire windings are disposed within the housing about a 
core, and two poles of opposite polarity are disposed on 
opposite sides of the membrane. An input current signal 
directed through the wire windings results in a magnetic 
force acting on the magnetic membrane and effectively 
loading the membrane. The resulting magnetic force acting 
on the membrane directly affects the pressure of the 
pneumatic output signal since the loading of the membrane 
acts to restrict flow between the seat and membrane. By 
appropriately adjusting the I/P transducer and particularly 
the fluid flow therethrough, the output fluid pressure signal 
is maintained proportional to an input current signal directed 
through the wire windings.

Abstract: An effective composition for the capture of rodents, rats, 
mice, and other vermin, harmless to man and pets and useful 
over a wide range of temperatures, may be produced by 
forming a mixture including: a tackifying solution compris­
ing either a low molecular weight linear polymer or a high 
molecular weight branched polymer, a solvent type softener, 
and a resinous substance which comprises an alkyl ester of 
rosin such as a methyl ester and one or more resins such as 
hydrogenated resins, aromatic hydrocarbon resins or the 
like, with the tackifying solution making up at least 86% by 
weight of the mixture; a coagulated and polymerized rubber 
such as polyisoprene, making up at least .125% by weight of 
the mixture and being reacted with the tackifying solution; 
and an aqueous emulsion of a rubber such as polyisoprene 
and including a stabilizer such as ammonia, which makes up 
at least 6% by weight of the mixture, the emulsion being 
dispersed in said tackifying solution. The invention also 
teaches that a vermin trap may be produced by loading such 
a composition into a tray.

IPC: F01L1/12
Filed: 1983-06-22
Abstract: An internal combustion engine having a plurality of 
cylinders, each provided with a normal inlet valve (4) and an 
exhaust valve is additionally provided with an auxiliary air 
admission system which includes an auxiliary inlet valve (5′) 
for each cylinder, valve operating means (21,22,23,24) pro­
viding coordinated operation with the other valves of the 
cylinder, and a throttle valve (3′), interconnected with the 
carburettor throttle linkage. A further air inlet valve (1′) 
located upstream of the air admission throttle valve (3′) is 
spring biassed towards a closed position, against atmos­
pheric pressure which tends to open the valve. The auxiliary 
air admission system provides stratification of the engine 
inlet mixture and permits operation with reduced fuel 
consumption and is particularly advantageous for use with 
an engine having the mixture inlet valve recessed into the 
cylinder head so as to provide an auxiliary combustion 
chamber (6′).

Title: Method of adjusting the inking unit of a printing machine and measuring device for carrying out the method
IPC: B41F33/00
Filed: 1984-07-24
Abstract: The ink dosing elements in the ink fountain of a printing machine are adjusted to reference positions in response to measurement of the amount of ink applied to the fountain roller at the respective inking zones. The reference positions are stored in a data memory for future use or are adjusted in accordance with predetermined values to arrive at the settings of the ink dosing elements for obtaining a desired ink profile. Preferably an optical densitometer mounted on a rail parallel to the fountain roller measures the amount of ink, and the densitometer is initially calibrated at an ink-free zone on the fountain roller. According to a manual embodiment, a first one of the ink dosing elements is brought to a reference position by an operator while viewing the respective inking zone, for example, to obtain a permissible minimum of ink. The densitometer is moved to measure the ink at the first inking zone, and is successively moved to measure the ink at the other inking zones while the respective ink dosing elements are adjusted to obtain substantially the same measured values for all of the inking zones. Alternatively, the method is performed by a remote control computer.
