Abstract: 1304410 Stand for light firearms HECKLER & KOCH GmbH 24 July 1970 [30 July 1969] 36058/70 Heading F3C A stand for light firearms has a firearm support 5, Fig. 1, one end of which is connected to a frame structure 1 by means of a universal joint 6 and another end of which is connected to an adjusting device 7, the effective length of which is variable by means of a screw-threaded spindle 52, Figs. 5 and 6, and a nut 68 carried by a slide 56 mounted on a guide 3, Fig. 1. The spindle 52, Figs. 5 and 6, is rotatably mounted in a block 45 and is provided with a hand wheel 53. The nut 68 has a screw-threaded surface which engages less than 180 degrees of the circumference of the screw threads of the spindle 52, is urged into engagement with the spindle 52 by a spring 70 and is moved out of engagement with the spindle 52 by means of a knob 64. The latter is screwably mounted on a screw-threaded pin 63 attached to the slide 56 and also serves to clamp the nut to the spindle. Fine vertical adjustment of the spindle 52, and consequently the firearm support 5, is effected by means of the hand wheel 53 and coarse vertical adjustment is effected by means of a hand lever 85. The latter, having prongs 84, Fig. 7, embraces the block 45 and is pivotally mounted therein by means of pins 86 and an extension 81 of the spindle 52 is axially retained in the block 45 by means of a pin 82. The hand lever 85 is provided with a rod 88 and a ball 89, the rod having a groove 91, which is engageable by a spring 94 so as to retain the rod in engagement with the block 45 and allow the coarse vertical adjustment to be effected and the rod 88 having a groove 92 which is also engageable by the spring 94 when the rod is moved out of engagement with the block 45, Figs. 5 and 6. The latter is attached to the guide 3 by two clamping members 41 mounted on a rod 42 which is carried by two arms 44 attached to the block 45. Devices 14 are used to releasably clamp the guide 3 to the frame 1 and each has a member 21, Figs. 2, 3 and 4 (not shown), having projections 22 which grip the guide 3, has a spring 25 having limbs 26, 27, the former engaging the guide 3 and the latter engaging a rod 28; and has an actuating member 30 which is connected to' the rod 28. When the rod is in the position shown in Fig. 3 clamping is effected and when the rod is rotated by means of the member 30 to bring a flat 29 on the rod into engagement with the limb 27 of the spring 25, the devices 14 are unclamped. A cover plate 76, Fig. 5, is provided for the spindle 52. The frame structure 1, Fig. 1, is provided with two legs 8 and is pivotally connected at 11 to a third leg 8.

Filed: 1937-12-31
Abstract: 502,632. Indicating. BLACK, G. J. F. Dec. 31, 1937, No. 36211. [Class 78 (v)] A readily inspected indicator is applied to colliery and like winding-engine control devices which comprise a profile member connected to a centrifugal governor and co-operating with a rotary and axially movable wheel &c. to' apply a brake &c. when the wheel and profile strike one another due to incorrect running speed. A viewing disc j bearing a line mark m co-related in form to the profile edge of the governor actuated member b is oscillated by bevel gearing t from a spindle s carrying a sprocket wheel o over which passes an endless chain n connected by a coupling r to the shaft f which carries the notched wheel g which cooperates with the profile member b. The shaft f is driven by the engine and advances by reason of a screw-thread thereon engaging a fixed nut h, and as the disc j slowly turns a pointer k, carried by an extension i from the profile member support d, keeps its tip on the line m, if the correct moment to moment speed is attained, by the action of the governor a. In n modification, the disc j is replaced by a sliding panel bearing the display mark, or by a rotary cylinder which may be mounted on the spindle s. In a further form, the pointer and disc &c. are dispensed with, and a shadow of the profile member and notched wheel is optically projected on a screen.

Abstract: 843,624. Electric tests. ROE & CO., A. V. Nov. 21, 1956 [Dec. 19, 1955], No. 36297/55. Class 37. To determine the thickness of non-metallic sheets an A.C. energized coil 13 with a laminated open core is placed in contact with one side of the sheet and a similar coil 14 on the other side of the sheet feeds a moving coil meter 16 through .a bridge rectifier 15, through a range charging switch 18 and a " measure-off-search" switch 17. Switch 18 inserts resistors in series with bridge 15 to vary the measuring range. In the search position of switch 17 the output of rectifier 15 is fed direct to meter 16 a maximum reading of which indicates that the receiver coil 14 is positioned directly beneath the transmitter 13. In the "measure"position a D.C. voltage derived from a second bridge rectifier 25 and a potentiometer 27 is used to back off the receiver output so as to expand the meter scale and thus increase the meter sensitivity. Meter 16 is shunted by a rectifier and resistor in series to prevent the signal from potentiometer 27 driving the pointer backwards when the output of the receiver is small.

Abstract: 619,595. Packing-machines. STOTHERTS, Ltd., and STOTHERT, M. H. Dec. 14, 1946, No. 36938. [Class 94 (i)] In apparatus for enclosing tablets between strips of thermoplastic material, the tablets are fed singly down a chute 13 into slots 11a of an intermittently rotated disc 11 driven by a pawl and ratchet mechanism. The tablets are inserted between two strips of thermoplastic material fed from reels 15, 16 into a guide channel 14. Each slot 11a of the disc when positioned between the two layers and in the centre of the channel faces down the channel so allowing the tablet to be dragged out of the slot during motion of the strips. The strips are advanced by a mechanism which comprises a reciprocatory block 30 sliding in the channel and causing prongs 35; housed in the block, to be raised so pinning the strips to a bridge 31 mounted on the block so that the strip and the block advance together. The prongs 35 are raised when their horizontal portions ride over fixed springs 32 during the forward motion of the block and are withdrawn when they fall through slots in the springs prior to the return of the block 30. In a modified form the bridge is attached to a separate block 39 which has a tight sliding fit in the channel whilst the prongs which pass through this block are raised and lowered due to a groove in a reciprocating block 36. Between the disc 11 and the block 30 are recessed electrically heated sealing dies, 18, 19, which engage to seal the strips together when they are stationary.
