Abstract: Apparatus for detecting the presence of a modifier ingredient, such as an UV stabiliser, in a substrate surface, for instance of PVC, includes a UV generator (12) which produces UV radiation which is directed to a desired area (22) of the substrate surface (16). An image of the desired area of the surface is formed by a lens (23) at an image plane on a detector (26) which is arranged to detect the fluorescent radiation produced by the substrate surface. The detector (26) generates a signal in response to the fluorescent radiation incident thereon which is representative of the degree to which the substrate surface has been modified.

Abstract: A tape applicator having a handle and a housing is disclosed. A rotatable toothed gear is located in the housing and houses a tape roll. A pawl is engagable with the gear teeth of the toothed gear to alternately prevent and permit rotation of the tape roll. An applying arm assembly projects the tape out of the housing to dispense the tape and withdraws the tape into the housing after some of the tape is dispensed. A trigger is mounted on the handle and is connected to the pawl and the applying arm. Retraction of the trigger into the handle disengages the pawl from the gear teeth and pivots the applying arm to the extended position. After application of the tape, extension of the trigger pivots the applying arm to the withdrawn position to move the tape into a position in which a fixed cutting blade severs the tape.

Abstract: High speed turning of elongate confectionery bars through 90° is executed in two stages. The bars (b) are turned through an acute angle in a first stage by a timed blast of air from an air jet (7) whilst the bars are in flight between first and second conveyors (2, 6), and through a further acute angle by a pair of diverging differential speed conveyors (11, 12). The timing of the air blast is achieved by detecting the leading edge of the bar by sensors (10) prior to projection. The orientation of the bar is checked by further sensors (16) after initial transfer to the differential speed conveyors (11, 12), and the relative speeds of those conveyors is adjusted if necessary to complete the turn.

Abstract: An apparatus detects a position of a light spot necessary for the tracking control and the track jumping control at the time of reproducing an optical disk. Three light beams are used to provide three push-pull outputs from the respective light beams, thus making it possible to discriminate whether or not the light spot is in the on-track state on the basis of a value obtained as the result of a predetermined calculation of the respective push-pull outputs. In this apparatus, there is employed an arrangement such that in the case where the central light spot of the three light spots exists on the axis of one recording track, other two preceding and succeeding light spots are not projected onto the adjacent tracks.

Abstract: The process relates to the dispensing of gas from pressure vessels having a filling pressure of over 200 bar. To be able to empty these pressure vessels in a technically simple and economic manner without having to give up existing systems for filling pressures up to a maximum of 200 bar, it is proposed, at a vessel pressure of more than 200 bar, to reduce the gas pressure according to the invention by means of a first pressure reducer (5) down to or below 200 bar and then to reduce it to working pressure by means of a second pressure reducer (8). At a vessel pressure in the course of gas dispensing or at a filling pressure of in each case below 200 bar, the first pressure reducer can be bypassed by means of a bypass line (7). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a webbing retractor (10), a winding shaft (20) has both ends rotatably supported by a frame (12) and serves to wind-up an occupant securing webbing (23) in a layer fashion. A lock ring (38) is supported relatively rotatably with the winding shaft.
