Title: Improvements in machines for pasting accumulator grids
IPC: H01M4/20
Filed: 1935-01-08
Abstract: 437,558. Pasting accumulator grids. COMPAGNIE GENERALE D'ELECTRICITE, 54, Rue la Boetie, Paris. Jan. 8, 1935, No. 655. Convention date, Jan. 10, 1934. [Class 87 (ii)] A machine for pasting accumulator grids comprises a rotating circular table 4 carrying a detachable rim 12 provided with apertures 13 corresponding in shape to the grids, a device B for holding a supply of grids and placing them in the apertures 13, a device C for holding a supply of paste, and pasting members 36, 41 rotating in opposite directions on opposite sides of the grid that has been brought beneath the device C by the rotating table 4. The unpasted grids are supported in the apertures 13 on rails 14 and the pasted grids are pushed through the apertures on to a conveyer by a device D situated at a point where the rails terminate. The table 4 is supported on rollers 3 and is guided by a circular depending flange 6 which makes contact with a number of rollers whose axes are vertical. The table is rotated through gearing by a motor 11. The device B for placing grids in the apertures 13 consists of two parts 18, 19 hinged together at 20 and enclosing a space s which is filled with grids. The pivot 20 is arranged eccentrically so that by rotating it the part 19 can be displaced relatively to the part 18, and thus the shape of the space s can be varied to accommodate grids of different shape. The whole device is adjustably vertically by means of a slide 15 and screw 17. The grids supported in the recesses 13 over the rails 14 are brought beneath the pasting apparatus which consists as shown in Figs. 11 and 14 of a fixed tube 23 enclosing a tube 28 rotated by a motor 29. The lower end of the tube 23 carries a ring 36 having four inclined triangular arms 40 which work the paste in the tube 28 into the grid. Beneath the grid is a plate 41 which rotates in the opposite direction and pastes the lower surface of the grid. A scraper 33 is fixed inside the tube 28 and the whole apparatus can be adjusted in height by a worm and screw mechanism. The pasted grids are pushed through the apertures 13 on to a conveyer by means of the device shown in Figs. 15 and 17. A number of connected plates 45 pivoted at 451 are normally held above the apertures 13 by a lever 48, the arm 50 of which rubs against the periphery of the rim 12. The latter is provided with notches 52, and when the lever 50 enters a notch the weight of the plates 45 aided by a spring 46 causes the plates to descend into the aperture 13 and eject the grid.

Title: Computer apparatus for performing the operations of multiplication or division
IPC: G06F7/491
Filed: 1963-01-08
Abstract: 1,033,951. Digital calculating apparatus. MONROE CALCULATING MACHINE CO. Jan. 8, 1963 [Jan. 9, 1962], No. 800/63. Heading G4A. Apparatus for carrying out either multiplication or division comprises two registers the contents of which are fed simultaneously bit-bybit to a serial adder-subtractor, and means for detecting when the result (which is returned to one of the registers) passes through zero and changing the function of the adder-subtractor. Means for shifting the contents of one of the registers is also provided. Various possible modes of operation are outlined, two of which will be described with reference to Figs. 1, 3 and 6 (not shown). Fig. 3 shows the initial content of two registers X, Y (2, 12 in Fig. 1) for multiplication, the product being formed in register X as shown in the bottom line. Each register holds two five-decimal-digit words, the complement of the multiplier (#MP) being initially in section A and the multiplicand (MC) in series D. At each cycle MC is added into the (initially empty) section B until the additions of one to the most significant digit of MP cause a change of sign, when register X is shifted one place (by delay in 6), the unit 4 switched to subtraction and one is thus subtracted from the next digit for each addition of MC into the shifted partial product. This process is repeated until a count of the number of times the unit 4 is switched indicates completion. For division (Fig. 6) the divisor (DR) is initially added to the complement of the dividend (DD) until a change of sign, a one being added into the right-hand digit of X for each addition. Then the contents of X is left shifted and DR is subtracted so that the quotient is built up in section B of X.

Title: Television signal generator
IPC: H04N5/228
Filed: 1945-01-10
Abstract: 600,018. Television. FARNS WORTH TELEVISION & RADIO CORPORATION. Jan. 10, 1945, No. 865. Convention date, Jan. 10, 1944. [Class 40 (iii)] In a television system employing a picture signal generating tube of the iconoscope type in 'which the electron beam is amplitudemodulated by the application of an oscillation to a control electrode to produce a carrier wave modulated in amplitude by the picture signals for application to a utilization circuit, the applied oscillations are interrupted during synchronizing intervals and simultaneously impressed upon the utilization, circuit. An R.F. oscillator 68, the frequency of which may be equal to the radiated frequency or to an intermediate value thereof, feeds two amplifiers 69, 81 which are keyed by the blanking and synchronizing source 83 such that during trace intervals the amplifier 69 is operative and amplifier 81 inoperative and vice versa during re-trace intervals. When 69 is operative, a voltage, induced in the inductance 71, is applied to the intensity control electrode 6 of the iconoscope to produce an output signal voltage which, after amplification in valves 15 ... 19 is applied to the transmitter 66. During retrace intervals, the electron beam, in the absence of an induced voltage across 71, is biassed to cut-off by means of the battery 79 and the amplifier 81 which is now operative supplies a signal voltage, from oscillator 68, to the input circuit of valve 19, thus preventing the continuity of the radiated signal. The signal supplied by 81 may be modulated to provide a synchronizing pulse by increasing its amplitude above that representing picture black. The first three stages, valves 15, 16, 17, of the amplifier are arranged to have band-pass characteristics and the fourth stage, valve 18, which operates as a " class C " amplifier, is so biassed that the modulation depth of the signal is increased. The output signal, in addition to containing synchronizing and video signals, also contains information regarding the average illumination intensity of the subject (i.e. the D.C. component).

Title: Process for the production of alkali-metal peroxides
Inventor: COUSSEMANT FERNAND
IPC: C01B15/043
Filed: 1966-01-07
Abstract: 1,128,953. Alkali metal peroxides; hydrogen peroxide. INSTITUT FRANCAIS DU PETROLE DES CARBURANTS ET LUBRIFIANTS. 7 Jan., 1966 [9 Jan., 1965; 20 Aug., 1965], No. 933/66. Heading C1A. Alkali metal peroxides are prepared by contacting a solution of a non-enolysable ketone in a liquid hydrocarbon with an alkali metal amalgam and reacting molecular oxygen with the resulting solution to form alkali metal peroxide which separates from the solution in solid form. The term alkali metal peroxide means the superoxide, e.g. NaO 2  or KO 2  as well as the true peroxide Na 2 O 2  or K 2 O 2 , the two compounds generally being obtained in a mixed product. The liquid phase separated from the peroxide may be recycled for contact with the amalgam or the dissolution of the alkali metal from the amalgam and the oxidation of the ketyl formed may take place in a single reaction chamber provided contact between the oxidizing gas and the amalgam is prevented. Thus the amalgam may be placed in the reaction below the ketone solution and molecular oxygen may be introduced at a higher level than the amalgam/ketone solution interface. The ketone may be of the formula R-CO-R<SP>1</SP> where at least one of R and R<SP>1</SP> is a monovalent homocyclic or heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon radical or a radical of the formula where R 1  and R 2  may be the same or different and may be hydrogen atoms or monovalent hydrocarbon radicals and R 3  is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical, one of R and R<SP>1</SP> may be a monovalent aliphatic or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon radical totally substituted in the α- position relative to the CO group. Preferred ketones are benzophenone and fluorenone. The hydrocarbon solvent may be an aromatic hydrocarbon, preferably benzene and the ketone may be used in a concentration of 0À05-1 mol./litre of solution. The reaction temperature may be between- 10‹ and + 70‹ C. and a Lewis base, preferably hexamethylphosphoramide, may be added to the ketone to improve the solubility of the ketyl. The concentration of Lewis base may be 0À01 to 1 mol./litre of ketone solution. The alkali metal peroxide formed may be converted after separation or in the form of a suspension in the organic solution into other peroxide compounds. It may be treated with aqueous acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid or glacial acetic acid to form hydrogen peroxide. Alkali metal perborates may be formed by treating it with alkali metal borates, possibly in the presence of carbon dioxide and alkali metal percarbonates may be formed by the action of carbon dioxide on the suspension of the peroxide in the ketone.

Abstract: 749,675. Stereoscopic camera systems. WEBER, F. A. Jan. 11, 1952 [Jan. 12, 1951], No. 963/52. Classes 97 (1) and 98 (2). A camera assembly includes a reflector system comprising two substantially parallel reflectors supported in front of the camera objective so as to direct to the camera two different views of the object to be photographed and means for altering the stereo-base by adjusting the distance between the mirrors along the optical axis of the system and for altering the angle of convergence between them. As shown, a mirror 3 is formed on a shutter disc rotated in front of the camera lens 1 in synchronism with the intermittent feed of a kinematograph camera 2 which is run at double the normal speed, while a mirror 16 is adjustably secured to a slide 14 in a fixed guide 14. The slide 14 is connected by a link 25 to a manually operable lever 23 pivoted at 24 and bearing a cam 26 followed by a pivoted bell-crank lever 27 operating via a Bowden cable against a spring 30 to effect focusing automatically as the point of intersection of the mirror axes move. A scale 31 graduated in object distances over which the lever 23 moves may be provided. In a modification, the mirror 3 may be angularly adjustable, but stationary, and comprise alternate transparent and reflecting bands. The interlineated records so produced may be projected either through a lined polarizing filter comprising alternate sections with polarizing axes at 90 degrees or through a stereoscopic grid, the reflected image being reflected to the screen by a further reflector. In an alternative embodiment, the camera has two closely adjacent objectives 1a, 1b, a fixed mirror 32 covering the field of objective 1b and a movable mirror (not shown) similar to the mirror 16 covering the field of objective 1a. The resulting vertical parallax is decreased by reducing the height of the stereoscopic records with consequential reduction of the interaxial separation of the objectives. For tilting or similar purposes, a third mirror can be placed either between the two mirrors or between them and the objective.
