Title: Device for metering and dispensing lubricant
IPC: G01F11/04
Filed: 1972-10-13
Abstract: 1381199 Lubricating TECALEMIT SA 13 Oct 1972 [13 Oct 1971] 47413/72 Heading F2A A lubricant metering device, in a lubricating system in which supply lines are alternately pressurized, is arranged such that when one line is pressurized the metering piston acts to withdraw lubricant from the other line. As described the metering piston comprises two piston heads 1, 1<SP>1</SP> which are located in separate cylinders but have a common piston-rod. The supply lines are connected to both sides of a respective piston heads, the piston being moved by the pressure difference arising from the differing surface areas. As lubricant is ejected from one side of the measuring piston to the points of use lubricant is sucked from the unpressurized line. The device helps overcome problems inherent in the use of long lubricant supply lines.

Title: Closure handling apparatus

Filed: 1972-10-17
Abstract: 1404330 Orientating closure caps PNEUMATIC SCALE CORP 17 Oct 1972 47848/72 Heading B8S Closure caps 14 carried by a rotary disc 12 are formed into a row in an annular space formed by the disc 12 and horizontal and vertical walls 54, 52 of a closure guide 50, the wall 54 being so spaced above the disc 12 that only caps with their openings uppermost or lowermost can enter the annular space, the caps 14 then being guided through an opening 58 in the wall 52 and passed to a sorting station 16 at which those caps with their opening lowermost are ejected, those with the opening uppermost passing to a delivery shoot 18, the sorting station comprising an interrupted guide 96 for supporting the outer edge of a cap 14 whilst the inner edge of the cap is supported by the disc 12. The caps are fed to the disc 12 from a hopper H by a conveyer 20 and a guide shoot 10 and are agitated, whilst on the disc 12, by coil springs 64 and air from nozzles 60, mounted on the guide 50, so as to assume an orientation for entering the annular space. The caps are guided through the opening by a curved portion 72a of a lateral guide rail 72 which co-operates with an outer lateral guide rail 72b and an upper guide rail 74 and the guide plate 76 and the rim of the disc 12 past the sorting station. The guide rail 76 terminates at the sorting station which includes a toothed wheel 132 which projects slightly above the rail 76, and air nozzles 100, 106. If a cap has its opening uppermost, the cap is supported by the toothed wheel 132 and blown on to a further lower guide 94, spaced from the rail 76, by air from the nozzle 106. If, however, the cap has its opening lowermost, the cap-rim seats between the teeth of the wheel 132 and causes the cap to tilt downwardly and outwardly so as to be blown by air from the nozzle 100 on to a shoot 141 leading back to the hopper H. Fig. 13 shows an embodiment for sorting caps 86 having flanges 88 at their openings. In this embodiment the wheel 132 is omitted, the plate 76 is replaced by a rail 90 having a rounded end and the inner guide rail 72 is replaced by a guide rail 73 which is spaced above the disc 12 by a distance equal to the height of the caps 86. If the cap 86 is opening-uppermost the edge of the cap is gripped between the rail 73 and the disc 12 and so prevented from tilting. If, however, the cap is opening-lowermost, the cap tilts and is ejected. The apparatus is controlled by sensing caps in the shoot 18 and deactivating the drive for the conveyer 20, and preventing caps from passing through the opening 58 in the wall 52.

[Also in Divisions D1 and H2] An electric winding, shown as that of an electric motor stator, comprises a plurality of conductors 14, each insulated partly by porous sleeving 20 comprising fibrous material, e.g. glass fibre, and carbon-free silica left by removal from the sleeving of the organic constituents of a silicone binder, the remainder of the insulation being provided by a ceramic insulation 22 which fills the sleeving pores (21), Fig. 4, originally occupied by the organic constituents and reinforces the assembly. Such constituents may be removed by stoving at 400‹ C., whereupon the ceramic insulation, e.g. cement, in the fluid state is vacuum impregnated into the pores in an autoclave. If the ceramic cement is porous, ingress of moisture may be prevented by the provision of a vitreous enamel coating 23 on the exposed external surfaces. Wedges 18 and lining members 17 of laminated core slots 11 containing the winding may comprise identical insulation. The invention is also applicable to generators and other electrical devices having high temperature-resistant windings, e.g. supersonic aerial vehicles.

Title: Process for the purification of pyrolysis gases
IPC: B01D51/10
Filed: 1963-12-20
Abstract: <FORM:1013509/C4-C5/1> A process for removing carbon dust, tar and hydrocarbons containing 8 or more carbon atoms per molecule from pyrolysis gases comprises simultaneously scrubbing and partially cooling by quenching the gases with a relatively hot hydrocarbon oil (e.g. at 100 DEG  to 150 DEG  C.) in a first zone 5, and completing the cooling by scrubbing with water under highly turbulent flow conditions (to prevent mist formation) in a second zone 17. Condensed oil (at 24) and dust (at 23) are separated, at 21, from the water (at 22), and a major portion of the condensed oil is recycled (via 24 . . . 26) to the zone 5, and a minor portion of the oil is discharged (at 27) for recovery of cyclic hydrocarbons, e.g. xylene, styrene, indene, and naphthalene, contained therein.  The scrubbing oil may be a petroleum light oil (initial b.p. above 150 DEG  C.). Turbulent flow in the zone 17 is achieved by using a perforated plate tower with impact plates over the perforations, whereby gas velocities through the perforations above 5 m./sec. are obtained. Preferably, as shown, the oil is sprayed at 3 into the gases, which, with vaporized and unvaporized oil, enter a distillation column 5 where oil condenses and from which dust-containing oil is discharged at 6 for separation at 7, oil being recycled, after being suitably made up, at 10, via lines 13, 15. The unsaturated component of the heavy hydrocarbons is polymerized to tar and eliminated via line 6, the gases leaving the column via line 16 containing vaporized oil and mainly cyclic hydrocarbons.  In a modification, Fig. 3 (not shown), a heat-exchanger is inserted in the line 16 and condensate (water and oil) removed from the exchanger, separated, a major part of the oil recycled to the top of the column 5, and a minor part discharged for recovery of cyclics. Further, fresh oil is delivered to the top of the scrubber 17 to remove cyclic hydrocarbons, the oil being separated from the water at 21, as before, and part at least delivered via line 26 directly to the line 13.  Two examples are described.
