Title: Generating a sawtooth deflection current
IPC: H03K4/83
Filed: 1975-03-07
Abstract: 1503518 Sawtooth deflection circuits PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd 7 March 1975 [11 March 1974] 9577/75 Heading H3T [Also in Division H2] In a deflection circuit, a first switch S1 is arranged to couple the deflection coil L1 to a capacitance Ct during the trace interval, a second switch S2 is coupled to the first switch S I via at least a capacitor C and arranged to control the replenishment of energy to capacitor Ct from current provided by a third switch T3 without the interposition of a charging or energy storing inductor. At the beginning of each trace, thyristor T1<SP>11</SP> is conductive so that a decreasing current is driven by Ct through deflection coils L1 (which may be transformer coupled). At the mid trace point, thyristor T1<SP>1</SP> is turned on so as to accommodate the reversed current in L1. Thyristor T2 is triggered near the end of the trace, so that a half cycle flyback pulse is developed by resonating C, L I, Ct. Thyristor T1<SP>11</SP> and T3 are turned on at the end of the flyback, T3 passing only a short pulse of current to replenish losses. A pulse position modulator 3 controls the gating time of thyristor T3 so as to maintain constant the voltage across capacitor Ct and hence the scan amplitude. In Fig. 1 (not shown) thyristor T1<SP>11</SP> is replaced by a diode and an inductor is included in series with C. Further low value inductors may be included for suppressing high frequency transients. Auxiliary supply voltages and the required high voltage can be generated by means of windings coupled to L 1 and/or by means of a transformer in series with a capacitor across C. The thyristors may be replaced by transistors.
Patent GB-768480-A (GB)
Title: Process for the production of articles from viscose solutions
IPC: D01F2/08
Filed: 1955-04-01
Abstract: Fibres, filaments, bristles, strips, foils and like products are made by extruding a solution of viscose which has a degree of xanthation (molecular ratio of -CSS- units to glucose units) of 0.25-0.45, and in which the cellulose has a degree of polymerization greater than 400, into an aqueous coagulating bath containing 50-75 per cent of caustic soda at 50-100 DEG  C.  The xanthated product is then decomposed rapidly by the action of heat, preferably by steam at 100-180 DEG  C., washed free from caustic alkali, stretched and dried.  Desirably, the viscose solution contains a high concentration of caustic soda, preferably 8.5-13 per cent, and has an a -cellulose concentration of 6-11 per cent.  To prevent undesirable swelling effects, which are pronounced at low alkali concentrations, the concentrated caustic alkali adhering to the product is preferably removed by washing at 70-100 DEG  C. with 3-5 per cent caustic soda solution, which may also contain sodium sulphate or sulphide, to reduce swelling, the remaining caustic alkali being then removed by treatment with hot water.  These washes may be carried out in counter-current. Preferably, the products are stretched before maximum swelling occurs, that is, between extrusion and heat treatment, and subsequent stretches are also applied.  After washing, but before drying, the articles may be cleaned, softened or otherwise treated in known manner.  Specification 323,747, [Class 2 (ii)], is referred to.

Title: Improvements relating to the catalytic desulphurisation of petroleum hydrocarbons
IPC: C10G45/24
Filed: 1949-04-08
Abstract: In an autofining process for the catalytic desulphurization of a petroleum feedstock, the pressure in the autofining zone is allowed to rise to an equilibrium pressure at which the hydrogen evolved equals the hydrogen consumed such that organically combined sulphur in the feedstock is converted to hydrogen sulphide.  The process is preferably carried out at a temperature between 650 DEG  and 800 DEG F.  The preferred catalyst consists of a mixture of the oxides of cobalt and molybdenum deposited on or incorporated with a support, preferably alumina.  In the example the desulphurisation of an Iraqi gas oil containing 0.89 weight per cent of sulphur is described.  The average sulphur removal over an 80 hour run is 85.5 per cent, corresponding to a sulphur content of 0.13 weight per cent in the refined oil. Specifications 654,152, 663,038, 669,536, 669,551, 669,552, 669,553, 679,175 and 682,309 are referred to.

Title: Improvements in machines for grinding the flanks of threads, chiefly in worms
IPC: B23F13/04
Filed: 1946-04-01
Abstract: 610,369. Thread-grinding machines. MORT, G. N. M. April 1, 1946, No. 9977. Convention date, Aug. 14, 1945. [Class 60] A machine for grinding flanks on worms and screw-threads, of the kind wherein a variable lead action is obtained by means of a slide coupled to the work-holder and movable in a rotatably adjustable slide-way by means actuated in co-ordination with the rotation of the work-holder is characterised by the provision of a change-speed gear coupling the said means to the rotatable work-holder, whereby a continuous range of pitches can be obtained without the use of a lead screw or removable gears. A motor 1, Fig. 2, rotates, through gears 3, 4, a work-spindle 2 and a bevel gear 5 which latter rotates, through change-speed gears 6, a shaft 9 carrying a pinion 10 meshing with a rack 11 movable transversely on a work-slide 17. The rack 11 is pivoted at 12 to a slider 13 movable in a slideway 14 of an angularly adjustable plate 15 mounted on the machine bed. A transverse movement of the rack 11 and the movement of the stub 13 in the fixed slideway 14 causes the required longitudinal movement of the work slide 17. An arrangement for indexing the work in the grinding of multi-thread screws includes two half-spindles 35, 36, Fig. 16, driven normally at the same speed, by worm gears 38, 39 and planet pinions 40, 41, sun gears 42, 43 being held fast. The rotary indexing motion is given to the half-spindle 36 by rotation of the sun wheel 43 by a worm 45 driven from a motor constantly under load, the worm 45 being locked during normal operation by a lever 46 on a shaft 52 engaging a cam 47, not shown, on the worm shaft. The lever 46 may be disengaged from the cam by rod-and-tappet mechanism, Fig. 15, (not shown). Also keyed to the shaft 52 is a lever 49 engaging one of a series of cams 50 driven at the same speed as the shaft 36. The cam 50 has as many notches as there are threads to be ground and when the lever 49 engages one of these, the lever 46 is pressed by a spring 51 (not shown), to engage the cam 47 and stop the rotary indexing motion. An arrangement for dressing the grinding wheel 32 includes, mounted on the work slide 17, a driven spindle 18, Fig. 3, rotating a member 20, running in a bearing 22, which can be swung about a pivot 24 to bring the dressing device into an inoperative position. The member 20 carries a pivoted plate 25, adjustable to give the correct helix angle, carrying another plate 26 pivoted in a vertical plane, to give the correct pressure angle. A sleeve 30 carrying a diamond tool 31 is reciprocated on a slideway in the plate 26 by a motor 29 carried on the member 20, so that as the spindle 18 and thus the member 20 rotates and the slide 17 is given a translational movement, the tool 31 is reciprocated across the grinding wheel 32 tn dress it to the desired outline.
