Patent GB-2013635-A (GB)
Title: Closure assembly for containers particularly bottles
IPC: B65D41/04
Filed: 1979-01-30
Abstract: A closure cap (3) for a container is made of plastics material of which the bending strength decreases with rise of temperature and has a sealing portion (7), bearing against the inside wall of the container neck (1) connected to the end plate (5) of the cap so that when this end plate (5) is curved outwardly by rise in pressure in the container, the sealing portion (7) is raised by a distance (h) equal to or greater than its minimum sealing distance from the upper end of the mouth of the container and thereby releases the internal pressure in the container. The arrangement improves the safety of the containers in that pressure is relieved without blowing off of the cap or bursting of the container. <IMAGE>
Patent GB-2041214-A (GB)
Title: Improvements relating to baskets
IPC: B65D6/08
Filed: 1979-02-09
Abstract: A basket is comprised of a plurality of elongate elements which pass through openings in a plurality of transverse members 16. The elongate elements can form a set of rings 10 to 14, with the smallest ring 10 defining the narrower open end of the basket and the largest ring 14 defining the wider open end. Alternatively the elongate elements may be comprised by a single elongate member which assumes an approximately spiral form. The elongate elements and transverse members are preferably formed of a plastics material which is resiliently flexible such as high density polyethylene. Pigments may be included in the plastics material so that a particular colour and pattern may provide a means of identification of the basket which cannot be removed by abrasion. The basket may be used as the support frame of a cloche in which case the elongate member(s) may be perforated to enable water to be sprinkled through them. <IMAGE>

Thus, the direction and extent of pivotal movement of the lever 21 about the pivot D from its zero position, as controlled by handle 13 and by the extent and direction of displacement of the connector 20 along the lever 21 from the axis of said pivot D is controlled by the selection lever 15 (See Fig. 1).   <IMAGE>
Patent GB-2055771-A (GB)
Title: Draining and refilling system for steel pickling tanks
IPC: C23G3/00
Filed: 1979-07-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a system for and a method of draining and refilling a tank such as an acid- containing steel pickling tank. A safe system is provided in which the tank and a pressurised storage vessel are isolated from one another during normal operation by a syphon tube. As shown a pickling tank T is connected via a syphon pipe 6 to a storage vessel 1. The syphon pipe 6 may be evacuated by an ejector device 11, or connected to atmosphere. The storage vessel may be pressurised from compressor 25 via an air receiver 24 and secondary receiver 16 which also provides pressure for the ejector device 11. To empty tank T syphon pipe 6 is evacuated via ejector device 11, vessel 1 is pressurised so that acid flows up pipe 6 into tank T until an "extra-high" level is reached. The ejector device is then cut off and the vessel 1 connected to atmosphere so that acid flows from tank T into vessel 10 until tank T is empty. Air then enters syphon pipe 6 which isolates tank T from vessel 1. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for flushing a delivery tube for automatic liquid sample supply apparatus
IPC: G01N1/00
Filed: 1980-02-22
Abstract: An automatic sample supply apparatus has a delivery tube 2 which aspirates liquid samples from sample containers mounted on a turntable 3 and delivers the samples in turn to the dosing aperture of a graphite tube 1 of an atomic absorption spectrophotometer or to the sample input of another analytical instrument. The turnable 3 also carries a flushing liquid discharge container 9 which is of similar form to the sample container but has an aperture in the side wall. When the turntable 3 is indexed to enable the delivery tube 2 to enter the flushing liquid discharge container 9 a solenoid valve 11 is opened to allow a flushing liquid pressurized in container 10 to flow through the tube 2 and into the container 9. The aperture in the wall of container 9 is dimensioned so that the flushing liquid will only flow through it when a given head of liquid exists above the top of the aperture, the turntable described has position sensing and analytical operation precoding devices (not shown). <IMAGE>
