Abstract: 838,561. Hasp fastenings; hook fastenings. K.A.C. Ltd. Aug. 13, 1958 [Nov. 15, 1957], No. 35732/57. Class 44 A toggle fastener comprises a recessed housing 1 adapted to be carried by one of two members to be secured together by the fastener with its front flush with the front surface of such member, a locking lever 6 pivoted near one of its ends to the housing 1 and rockable between a locking position in which its front surface lies flush with the front of the housing and closes part of the recess therein, and an unlocked position in which the free end of the lever projects forwardly out of the housing recess, a link 28 pivoted at one of its ends to the locking lever, and a connecting member 29 articulated to the other end of the link 28 and having a hook-like extremity 33 extending from an end of the housing 1 for engaging a complementary element 34 on or adapted to be carried by the second of the two members, the arrangement being such that rocking of the locking lever 6 from its unlocked to its locked position moves the connecting member 29 to swing the hook-like extremity 33 in the direction of its mouth and thereafter to draw the extremity towards the housing, the locking lever 6 and link 28 passing over-centre as the locking lever approaches its locked position. As shown, the end of the lever which is pivoted to the housing is bifurcated and to the free end 8 of the lever is pivotally attached, an extension lever 14 which in the locked position of the locking lever, is retained by a spring- loaded latch-lever 16. An ejector arm 23 on the lever 16 engages the extension lever 14 to rock the latter outwardly when the latch lever is depressed to unlock the fastener and this action of the ejector arm is assisted by a torsion spring 25 secured within the housing 1. An arm 15 on the extension lever 14 co-operates with a cam surface 27 within the housing to force the locking lever 6 out of the housing. The connecting member 29 comprises a pair of plates 30 which are guided on a pin 36 by slots 35 which allow longitudinal movement of the member during the locking and unlocking movements of the locking lever 6. The member 29 is loaded by spring means 37-40 which together with a snap action provided by extension 42 of the slot 35 assists the movements of the member 29 during the locking and unlocking actions of the locking lever 6. In a modification, Figs. 10-12 (not shown) the connecting member is of channel section of which the flanges are shaped to form hooklike ends.

Title: Improvements in or relating to malting processes
IPC: C12C1/02
Filed: 1963-09-11
Abstract: A continuous process of malting cereal grains comprises continuously passing the grains through <PICT:1110001/C6-C7/1> <PICT:1110001/C6-C7/2> <PICT:1110001/C6-C7/3> the water in a succession of steeping baths 5, 15, Fig. 1, under controlled conditions of temperature and humidity to form green grains, continuously passing the water from each bath into the succeeding bath and draining the water from the last steeping bath, continuously passing the green grains from the last steeping bath to a conveyer 32 to move the green grains continuously through a germinating apparatus 31, continuously passing the grains from the germinating apparatus to a conveyer 32 in a kiln 40, continuously passing the grains in succession through a series (e.g. three or five) of compartments 41, 42, 43 in the kiln, and continuously discharging the malted grains from the kiln.  The temperature in successive kiln compartments is increased (e.g. 70 DEG , 130 DEG  and 200 DEG F.) as by the use of radiators, without the introduction of air from outside, and the final compartment may provide for cooling.  Cylindrical resting bins (75, 80, 83, 88 and 93), Fig. 4, (not shown) may be interposed between some of the steeping baths.  The grains may be oxygenated in both the steeping baths and the resting bins. The grain is slowly advanced through the steeping bath 5 by a worm 52, Fig. 3, and is turned over half way along by buckets 54.  Similar buckets 54 discharge the steeped grain into the conduit 25. The conveyer employed in germinating and kilning the steeped grain, which is described and claimed in Specification 1,109,752, is formed of trays 101, Fig. 5, consisting essentially of a series of spaced laminar polypropylene members.  The trays are mounted on chain conveyers off-centre whereby the trays tip to discharge their contents (as shown) when wooden rubbing blocks fitted on the trays are no longer held by the supports 134 and 136, and they turn over completely during their rotation around each of the sprockets 132 and 133.  By the action of a tined board (165), Fig. 6, (not shown) the heap of barley discharged off the upper run is smoothed for transit along the lower run. Sealing strips at the leading and trailing ends of each tray prevent the grain from falling between adjacent trays.

Title: Signal translating system
IPC: H04N5/92
Filed: 1965-08-25
Abstract: 1,120,744. Recording television signals. RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA. 25 Aug., 1965 [18 Sept., 1964], No. 36592/65. Heading H4F. In a magnetic recording and reproducing system in order to achieve the frequency response necessary for faithful reproduction of video signals at a reasonable tape speed, the video signal 10, Fig. 1, is divided into high and low frequency signals which are delayed for one television line in circuit 18 and frequency modulated on a carrier in modulator 22 respectively, and the two signals are line sequentially sampled by means of alternate line switch 28 keyed by horizontal synchronizing pulses from synchronizing pulse separator 16 and recorded in a single track on magnetic tape. The reproduced signal from the magnetic tape is separated into its high and low frequency components by feeding the reproduced signal direct and by way of a one television line delay circuit 50 to an alternate line switch 48 which is keyed by line pulses from carrier presence detector 44, and the low frequency signals which are still frequency modulated on a carrier are then delayed for one television line in delay circuit 60, frequency demodulated in detector 62 and added to the high frequency signals after equalization. The resulting video signal output from adder 66 which may be applied to a television transmitter or receiver comprises twice recurring alternate lines of the original video signal. In a second embodiment, Fig. 2 (not shown), the delay circuit 50 in the reproducer is eliminated by using a transducer having a reproducing head containing two elements separated by a spacing equivalent to one horizontal television line. In a third embodiment, Fig. 4 (not shown), delay circuit 60 in the reproducer is omitted with a resulting misalignment of alternate lines of the video signal output. In a fourth embodiment, Fig. 3, the reproduced signal is sequentially switched between output terminals 90 and 92 of switch 88 by means of carrier presence detector 84 so that only the low frequency component appears at terminal 90 and the high frequency component at terminal 92. The low frequency component is delayed for one television line, frequency demodulated and added in adding network 102 to the equalized high frequency signals. The combined high and low frequency outputs are then fed directly and by way of a one television line delay circuit 108 to an alternate line switch 106 which is keyed by pulses from carrier presence detector 84, the resulting video output signal comprising twice recurring alternate lines of the original video signal.

Abstract: 955,923. Air cushion vehicles. A. P. PEDRICK. Sept. 28, 1962, No. 36822/62. Heading B7K. A craft operated in close proximity to a surface of flat land or water and supported therefrom by an air cushion generated as a result of forward motion of the craft is characterized in that there is provided a supplementary airstream, which is injected into the main airstream below the base of the craft and is localised so that it is operative only in proximity to that part of the base of the craft which is adapted to be supported at a minimum height above the land or water surface over which the craft is moving, as compared to other parts of the base, when such craft is in a condition of stabilized forward movement. The craft, which may comprise stub wings shown in cross-section, is propelled by a jet propulsion engine E from which compressed air is tapped and fed through a duct F to the rear end of the air-flow channel or cushion compartment beneath the vehicle to create a choking effect at the outlet duct, thereby raising the cushion pressure. In an alternative embodiment, this effect is achieved by increasing the angle of attack of the rearmost stub wing, thereby forming a channel which deflects air from above the wings to the cushion space below. Specification 955,922 is referred to.
