Divided out of 501,801. [Class 81 (i)] [Also in Group IV] Preparations for treating plants comprise a sulphonated ester derived from an ester of boron or phosphorus and a hydroxy compound of high molecular weight together with a copper or other metallic fungicidal or insecticidal compound. These sulphonated compounds promote the spreading of the insecticides. The hydroxy compounds from which these compounds are obtained may be higher alcohols. partial ethers derived from a higher alcohol and a lower polyhydric alcohol, esters derived from a higher fatty acid and a lower polyhydric alcohol. The sulphonated compounds may be mixed esters, derived from 'a boron or phosphorus acid and a hydroxy compound of high molecular weight and a lower polyhydric alcohol and in these esters mote than one hydroxy group of the polyhydric alcohol,may be esterified with a boron or phosphorus acid or be substituted by a lower alkyl or acyl group or they may be mixed esters derived from a boron or phosphorus acid and a hydroxy compound of high molecular weight and a lower monohydroxy compound, or from a boron or phosphorus acid, a,hydroxy compound of high molecular weight, a lower -polyhydric alcohol and a lower monohydroxy compound. Substances obtained as described in Specification 501,590.may also be employed. Example 1. Lauryl alcohol eaterified with boric (or a phos- - phorus acid), sulphonated, and converted into the sodium salt is mixed in the proportion of 1-4 parts with 1000 parts of Bordeaux mixture Products obtained according to the following examples may.also be used in the insecticidal preparations. Example 2. Technical secon. dary alcohols with 13-18 C atoms are esterified with boric acid and sulphonated. Example 3. The monoglycol ether of olein alcohol is esterified with P C13 and sulphonated.

Title: Improvements in or relating to switches
Inventor: FUJIWARA KATSUJI

Abstract: 1,263,326. Magnetic switches. K. FUJIWARA. 13 Oct., 1969 [18 Nov., 1968], No. 50212/69. Heading H1N. A switch is operated by the rise and fall of a float and comprises a shaft which transmits rotational movement by way of a magnetic clutch. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, a float 7 is responsive to liquid level in a tank 25 and is connected through a rigid arm 6 with a rotatable shaft 2. The shaft is mounted in a bush 3 and is rigidly connected with a cylindrical driving member 9 of a magnetic clutch. The member 9 has around it a non-ferrous sleeve 10 guided for rotation in an annular plastics ring 13 which is secured to a partition wall 11. This wall has a cylindrical part which lies within the member 9 and which in its turn surrounds a driven member 14 of the clutch. The member 14 is connected through a pin 16 with a shaft 18 on which is mounted a cam 17. In operation, movement of the float 7 causes rotation of the member 9 which is followed by the member 14. Thus the shaft 18 rotates and the cam 17 engages a lever 20 to actuate a microswitch 19 which may control a liquid valve. In a further embodiment, Figs. 6 and 7 (not shown), the cam 17 is replaced by a non-conducting block having a longitudinal conducting strip mounted on its surface. Rotation of the shaft 18 causes the strip to bridge a pair of contacts which are urged by springs against the block and thus complete a circuit to an electromagnetic liquid valve.

Abstract: 1464120 Automatic voltage control GENERAL MOTORS CORP 28 Nov 1974 [17 Dec 1973] 51569/74 Heading G3R An electrical system for a motor vehicle includes an alternator and a switching transistor voltage regulator which is permanently connected to the vehicle battery through a resistor of sufficiently high value to prevent substantial battery drain. As shown, an alternator 10 has output windings 12 and a field winding 14 the current in which is controlled by rapid switching of transistors 34, 36 in response to the comparison of a portion of the voltage appearing between output rectifiers 19 and a battery 128 with the breakdown voltage of a Zener diode 74. The regulated voltage is set by an adjustable cube resistor 94 in series with a potential divider 84-90 including a thermistor 84. A further potential divider 104-108, also including a thermistor 108, controls a transistor 112 which protects the circuit under high voltage conditions. Transistors 50, 52 are normally conductive, but are blocked if no D.C. voltage is sensed by the divider 84-90. When the vehicle engine is off, transistors 34, 36 are held conductive by the battery voltage through a resistor 114 and transistors 50, 52. Resistor 114 has a value of 3000 ohms to keep the current drawn from the battery to a low level. When the engine drives the alternator, current for the base-emitter circuits of transistors 34, 36 is supplied from output recitifiers 28 through a resistor 118 of say 500 ohms, so that normal voltage regulation can take place.

Abstract: 1524279 Nozzles; aerating liquids BIRD MACHINE CO INC 17 Dec 1976 [22 Dec 1975] 52866/76 Headings B1C and B2F [Also in Division F4] A spray cooling system for cooling large volumes of water includes a number of units or modules 14 each comprising a plurality of spray forming nozzle pairs 12 supplied with heated water to be cooled from a flow channel 10 by way of a pump impeller 16 and suitable piping 22, 36 32, the nozzles of each pair 12 being constructed and arranged so that the streams emerging therefrom impinge upon one another at an included angle in the range of 15‹ to 100‹, preferably 35‹ to 60‹, said impingement causing the streams to break up into a fan shaped droplet spray. Water in the spray is thus cooled by contact with the ambient air. The arrangement of nozzle pairs 12 is such as to direct the sprays from adjacent pairs to opposite sides of the longitudinal axis of each module when the modules are disposed within the channel 10. The modules may alternatively be land based on opposite sides of the channel (see Fig. 10 not shown). As shown in Fig. 2, each nozzle of a pair 12 comprises a circular cross section pipe 38 having a curved portion terminating in a straight portion. Each nozzle may be provided with air induction means for aerating the water prior to ejection from the nozzle, see Fig. 4. The aeration means may comprise a nozzle cap 48 welded around the end of pipe 38 and having a bulbous portion surrounding the pipe tip (46 Fig. 5) and provided with a ring of air inlet apertures 52. The pipe section 32 carrying each nozzle pair is connected into the piping 22 by way of attachment flanges 44, 54 to allow selective adjustment of the angle and/or direction of the nozzle outlets 50 of the pair with respect to the axis of the pipe section. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 6 the nozzles, which provide for aeration, have a rectangular cross section. A third nozzle (not shown) of circular cross section may be associated with each nozzle pair and arranged so that all the streams interact in a common zone. The shape of the stream leaving one of the nozzles of a rectangular nozzle pair may be modified by the provision of a plurality of pins (88 Fig. 9 not shown) having bevelled tips (90) which extend inwardly toward the nozzle outlet (72) at an acute angle, e.g. 30‹, to the axis thereof, said pins being secured to a plate (80) fastened to the aeration cap (68) below the outlet (72).

[Also in Division C3] A heat insulating material for use at the infeed end of a metal casting mould, is produced from an aqueous slurry comprising a fibrous organic material and a refractory, by placing the slurry in a die and applying a first pressure continuously thereto by a plate which is movable to expel the water and subsequently causing the plate to apply a second substantially higher pressure to compress the solids material in the die. The latter may be located on the stationary lower plate of a press, the upper plate of which is forced down on to the slurry. Alternatively the lower plate may move upwardly or both plates move towards each other. One or both plates may be perforated. The die may be rectilinear or annular in cross-section to produce a slub or an annulus, and may include a perforated bottom through which the water is expelled; said bottom is raised relative the die to remove the compacted mass which is finally dried. When individual slabs are produced, the slab in the die may be sub-divided by a thin sheet with triangular sectioned cutting ridges which is forced down on to the solids material retained in the die. The solids material may comprise from 4 to 30% by weight of fibrous cellulosic material and from 70 to 90% refractory material such as silica sand or crushed firebrick and may have 2 to 4 parts of water to one part of solids material. The pressure applied may be at least 100 1b./sq. inch and may be up to 600 lb./sq. inch.
