Title: Retractable core for hollow members
IPC: B29C33/48
Filed: 1971-11-04
Abstract: 1362875 Foldable frame for making vessels by winding HOUILLERES DU BASSIN DU NORD ET DU PAS-DE-CALAIS 4 Nov 1971 51429/71 Heading B8G  A foldable frame for manufacturing hollowopen-ended members by winding fibres impregnated with synthetic resin thereon comprises axially aligned shafts 1, 2; a plurality of beams 12 coupled to the shafts 1, 2 by struts 14, 17 such that when the shafts 1, 2 are moved apart the beams 12 move radially inwards to cause the core to collapse; and means for ensuring that the frame is rigid when expanded. A plurality of curved plates 19 extend around the beams 12 to form a tubular shell thereon. Each plate 19 has a width l 1  such that it can eventually be withdrawn out of one of the open ends of the wound member.  Triangular end sectors 20 that combine to cover the ends of the core, interconnect the beams 12 with discs 21 on the shafts 1 and 2. The length 12 of the major base of a sector 20 is slightly smaller than an open end of the wound member. The means for ensuring that the frame is rigid when expanded are pins that are additional to the pivot pins interconnecting the struts 14 with the shaft 1; and pins that are additional to the pivot pins interconnecting the struts 17 with the beams 12. A universal joint 22 on the shaft 1 enables the structure to be coupled to drive means. A motor 26 coupled to the shaft 2 enables the structure to be rotated in a manner preventing the synthetic resin from dripping whilst the shaft 1 is de-coupled from its driving source and the wound body is moved into a drying oven.  The frame may be coated with a thin layer of a thermosetting synthetic resin; followed by a layer of glass fibres impregnated with a synthetic resin; followed by a layer of filaments impregnated with a suitable resin.

Abstract: 1463450 Spin forming V CABONI 16 Dec 1975 [10 March 1975] 51435/75 Heading B3J A disc 1 is spun against a former 2 in a lathe by a plurality of simultaneously movable tools distributed over the disc, the tool motion having at least a component parallel to the lathe-axis and the amplitude of the motion increasing as the distance from the axis of the point of contact of the tools with the plate increases. In one form, Fig. 1, the tools 4 are moved by hydraulic cylinders 5 on stationary pistons 6 which are rigidly connected to valves 9 having slides 10. These are connected by sheathed cables 12 to bars 13 at corresponding distances from an axis 17 about which a control cam 16 is turned to operate the slides. Thus hydraulic fluid from a valve 20 is supplied to the valves 9 through lines 18 and through the valve ports 23 to the forward cylinder chambers 7. Re-setting valve 20 to the broken-line position returns the tool cylinders 5 and the cam 16 with the bars 13. In another form, Fig. 6, the tools 30 pivot progressively on transverse axes 31 as they traverse along the lathe axis.

Abstract: 1,180,221. Seals. HENRY BEAKBANE (FORTOX) Ltd. 6 March, 1967 [9 Dec., 1965], No. 52185/65. Heading F2B. Extension control means for a section of a corrugated cover for reciprocating machinery parts comprises flat metal strips 15a, 15b, 17a, 17b connected to each other and to the endplates 10 of the section at 13a, 13b by means of hinges which are made of laminates of resiliently flexible thermoplastic material and serve to bias the strips towards the contracted position of the cover. The hinges may be made of nylon laminates riveted to the metal strips. When the cover section is fully extended, the metal strips move into alignment or substantial alignment on the centre-line 14. Over-dead-centre movement of the strips may be avoided by using pairs of hinges (24), (25), Fig. 5 (not shown), riveted together. Two sets of strips may be employed, one each side of the centre-line, to allow passage of a machine tool along the centreline. A corrugated cover may be built up of such sections joined together as described in Specification 895,006.

Title: Devices using ferroelectric materials
IPC: G02F1/055
Filed: 1974-12-20
Abstract: 1476779 Ferroelectric devices MATSUSHITA ELECTRIC INDUSTRIAL CO Ltd 20 Dec 1974 55236/74 Heading H1K [Also in Division G2] A device comprises a body 10 of ferroelectric material having two pairs of electrodes on respective opposed surfaces, at least one of the electrodes having a resistance which is responsive to temperature. In the device illustrated in Fig. 1 the electrodes 11, 12 on the major surfaces 13, 14 of the body 10 are both made of a material having either a positive or a negative temperature coefficient of resistance, the resistance variation either being a smooth function of temperature or occurring sharply at a discrete temperature lower than the Curie temperature of the body 10. Suitable selection of ambient temperature results in the electrodes 11, 12 being resistive and enables the body 10 to be polarized in direction 20 by application of a D.C. potential between electrodes 15, 16. Alteration of the temperature such that electrodes 11, 12 become conductive enables the body to be repolarized in direction 21 by the application of a D.C. potential between electrodes 11, 12. If the body 10 and/or the electrodes are made of transparent materials an electro-optical storage or display device may be provided. In particular the body 10 may be of a hot-pressed La-doped lead zirconate-titanate ceramic. If the ceramic is "coarse-grained" an electro-optical effect arises from the dependence of light scattering on orientation of the ceramic polar axis relative to the direction of incident light. If the ceramic is "fine-grained" it exhibits electrically variable birefringence. Suitable positive temperature coefficient materials for the electrodes 11, 12 are Se, (Ba, Sr, Pb)TiO 3 , ZnO-TiO 2 -NiO, paraffins, polyethylene or graphite. Suitable negative temperature coefficient materials are Si, Ge, Ag 2 S, Ag 2 S-CuS, V 2 O, VO, VO 2 , Ti 2 O 3  or isoviolanthrone. The electrodes 15, 16 may be of Au, Ag, or A1. In modifications one or both of the electrodes 11, 12 are transparent and overlie photoconductive layers, e.g. of CdS or CdSe, the application of a potential between electrodes 11, 12 while irradiating the body 10 with a light image or pattern then causing selective repolarization of the body 10 in a pattern corresponding to that of the incident light.

[Also in Division H2] Articles such as plates of pre-cooked food to be heated are transported in succession through a microwave heating compartment 1 by a conveyer 7 and either one, or both, of the power of the radiation and speed of the conveyer is or are controlled automatically as a function of the number of articles in the compartment so that the heating energy absorbed by each article in passing through the compartment is substantially independent of the number of articles in the heating compartment. Sensors 8, 8a, and 9, 9a allow for the generation of a count signal, which is a function of the number of articles between the sensors and means responsive to the count signal provides the automatic control (see Division H2). With no articles on the conveyer the magnetism is completely cut off. The conveyer speed is also variable manually, for when differing foods are to be heated, for example. Microwave radiation is attenuated and absorbed at the ends of compartment 1 by box-section chokes 2 and water-cooled tubes of low-loss dielectric material arrayed in tapered waveguide sections 3. The input waveguide 5 is coupled to a launching waveguide section 4 coupled to compartment 1 by slots (not shown), and section 4 can be as in Specification 977,777.
