Abstract: 560,765. Coating surfaces. BRITISH UNITED SHOE MACHINERY CO., Ltd. (United Shoe Machinery Corporation). Sept. 16, 1942, No. 13040. [Class 95] A machine for applying coating material to angularly related adjacent surfaces upon a workpiece, comprises a nozzle for delivering coating material and a rotary applying member arranged to receive coating therefrom and apply it to one of the said surfaces. The machines illustrated apply a coating material, e.g. a latex cement, to a part of the flat midportion 12 of an insole I for a welted shoe, to the inner channel 14 from which the inner lip of the rib R was removed, and to the upstanding face of the inside of the rib R. The insole is presented to the nozzle 8, having valves 10, by means of upper and lower driven feed rolls 16, 18, the former carried on a shaft 20, and the latter on a shaft 26 journalled in an arm 28 mounted to rock about a pivot 32. Depression of the treadle rod 54 raises the lower feed roll to grip the work, and also controls the flow of coating material through the valves 10 of the nozzle 8 by means of a latch engaging the part 78, which permits flow to:be started before the feed rolls grip the insole, thus ensuring a coating from the very start of the operation, and which shuts off the flow before the feed is released, so that any surplus coating material in the -nozzle -is used up. The outlet of the spring-pressed nozzle 8 is divided into two sections, from one of twhich coating material is delivered to the insole surface 12, the other section surrounding a fluted roll 104 which coats the inner face of the rib R, being pressed thereagainst by the spring 130 on the rod 126. Coating material is supplied to the nozzle 8 through a hose 142 and valve tubes 150, 151 furnished with separately adjustable spring- pressed valve rods 154. A pivoted spring- urged arm 182 -carries an adjustable worksupporting table 180, a work-supporting roll 190 and a yieldably-mounted support 202. In the machine shown in Figs. 8 and 10, the feather F of the insole is gripped between upper and lower feed rolls 320, 322 the latter being movable about pivots 352. The nozzle 324 is vertically adjustable and can swing about a pivot 372. Coating material, supplied to the nozzle 324 by a tube 334, flows laterally on to a frusto-conical fluted applying roll 330 operating upon the inside of the rib R, and also downwardly on to the work, to be distributed by a shaped brush 326 on the flat mid-portion 12 of the insole and on the inner channel 14. Operation of the valve rod 336, to open the valve, is effected by means of an arm 436. 'Adjustable work gauges 498, 500 are provided in proximity to the work table 484. Depression of the treadle rod 510 causes the applying roll 330 to engage the inside surface of the insole rib R, and also raises the lower feed roll 322 and the valve rod 336. Specification 537,981, [Group VII], is referred to.
Patent GB-818264-A (GB)
Title: Enamelled ferrous articles
IPC: C23D3/00
Filed: 1956-04-27
Abstract: Before ferrous surfaces are vitreous enamelled they are given a coating of zinc or cadmium, e.g. by hot-dipping, and are heat-treated to cause the zinc or cadmium to diffuse into the ferrous metal thereby providing a surface which is substantially free of unalloyed zinc or cadmium, is corrosion-resistant, fixed and immobile, and to which the vitreous enamel is subsequently bonded.  After the zinc or cadmium-coated ferrous surface has been heat-treated, a bond-promoting metal (preferably selected from Sn, Nb, Mo, Sb, Ta, V, Mn, Co, Ni, W and As) may be applied by deposition from the vapour phase or from solution; this may be prefired before the vitreous enamel grit is applied but in some cases the prefiring of the bond-promoting metal may be omitted. U.S.A. Specification 2,467,114 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to matrices for aligning and securing the types or printing surfaces of typewriters or like machines
IPC: B41J1/04
Filed: 1927-05-16
Abstract: 272,188. Herlt, F. June 1, 1926, [Convention date]. Types.-Matrices for aligning the types of typewriters or like machines - on their carriers, preparatory to being secured thereto, are impressed by means of duplicates of the types in a soft composition which hardens after receiving the impression; or the matrices may consist of metal castings, the duplicate types being employed as moulds. In the apparatus shown in Fig. 2 a revoluble disc 10 is formed with a series of recesses 9 contaming a composition which hardens after preparation, for instance (1) 56 parts of burnt gypsum, 4 parts of powdered mallow roots, and 40 parts of water, or (2) 5 parts of water glass, 20 parts of precipitated chalk, and 2 parts of airslaked lime: or (3) iron-rust cement. The impressions are made by means of types 1 which are duplicates of the typewriter types and are secured to separate plates 2, these plates being placed successively on a slotted support 3 and being actuated for impression by means of a screw 6. The support is provided with a screw 4 for holding down the plate. After each impression, the disc is turned to bring the next recess into position and is secured by a pin 12 entering one of a series of holes 13. When the matrices have hardened, the disc and its support 11 are detached from the base 14 and are attached to a base 15, Fig. 3, to which is also at. tached a type-lever segment 16; or the support 11 n-ay be attached directly to the typewriter. The matrices 8 are then brought successively to the printing point, the associated types are applied thereto, and the type-levers 17 are swung up and soldered to the types; or the types may be secured temporarily and be soldered after removal of the type-levers. In some cases the duplicate types are mounted on a common support such as a disc; moreover the matrices mav be mounted in separate plates. When metal castings are employed as matrices, they are prepared by placing the duplicate types in recesses in a disc or plate and forcing metal into the recesses, these being closed at one end by plates secured to the types. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) states that vulcanite or the like may be employed for the matrices. This subjectmatter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in or relating to data processing apparatus
IPC: G06F13/18
Filed: 1965-03-29
Abstract: 1,107,661. Data transfer arrangements. HONEYWELL Inc. 29 March, 1965 [6 April, 1964], No. 13246/65. Heading G4A. In a digital computer adapted to transfer information from a central store 10 to a plurality of peripheral devices PD, a cycling controller providing a plurality of time interval signals is connected through a common distribution channel 54 to the peripheral devices PD whereby a particular one of the time intervals is reserved for a particular peripheral device in successive cycles, permitting interleaving of operation of the peripheral devices. The peripheral devices PD may include magnetic storage units, card readers, card punches, random access units or intermediate drum memories. The main memory 30 is a multi-phase coincident current core storage unit. The information leaves and enters the main memory through a control memory 32 which controls the programming instructions and contains A and B address registers and present and starting location registers. The arithmetic unit 11 which contains an operation code register 48, a clock and sequence cycle register 52 and an adder 42 is connected to a peripheral interface 13 which contains the cycling controller 56 (Fig. 2, not shown) activating lines FD1-FD3 in turn. The peripheral control units CU may be addressed on lines FO1-FO6, Fig. 3, at time FDD and that unit corresponding to the address has a flip-flop 114 set and the successive parameters transmitted on lines 128 during times FPP to identify the operation to be performed. At time FSS a flip-flop 120 is tested to check if that control unit is busy. A signal on line FGG combined with the read-write signals to a read-write channel assignment decoder 132 sets one of flip-flops 134, 135, 136 to identify the read-write channel FD1, FD2 or FD3 assigned such that during successive cycles a response signal decoder 142 may be operated to transmit data through AND gates 147 to the peripheral device or through AND gates 146 to lines F51-F56 connected to the control memory. A response request to transmit is shown on lines FR1- FR3. In a modification, including peripheral devices used less frequently, auxiliary channels with memory cycle distributers having a lower frequency than the normal distributers are used, and may be out of phase therewith (Figs. 6, 7 and 8, not shown). Thus, a given time interval in the clock cycle may be used by more than one peripheral device, the connections being such that the higher priority device uses the time interval more frequently e.g. 1, 2, 3, 1A, 2A, 3A, 1, 2, 3 .... Bi-stable devices may be activated to prevent the time interval being used by one of the auxiliary channels although still used by the others, e.g. 1, 2, 3, 1A, 2, 3A, 1, 2, 3 .... Further supplementary channels with different timings may be provided for both the normal and auxiliary channels, e.g. 1, 2, 3, 1A, 2A, 3A, 1, 2, 3, 1AS, 2AS, 3AS ....

Monocrystalline or polycrystalline silicon layers are deposited on to a heated silicon subtrate, which may, if desired, have been previously polished by etching, by the reduction or thermal decomposition of a halogen and/or hydrogen compound of silicon, which deposition reaction is carried out in a reaction vessel in a zone of substantially static reaction gas, movement of gas into or out of the zone being effected solely by diffusion and/or random turbulences that do not constitute a directional gas stream. In a reaction chamber 1, a rotatable rod 7 mounted in silicon carbide bearing 8 and carrying a disc-shaped substrate carrier of silicon 5, is rotated by means of magnet 12 and socket 11, and held in position by rod 10. Heating is provided by high-frequency coil 14, and as the polished silicon substrates 13 are slowly rotated, reaction gas passes into the top of the vessel 1 at 3 and out at 4, so that a zone of substantially static reaction gas is maintained around the substrates. Alternatively, the chamber may be filled with the appropriate reaction gas, and tubes 3 and 4 sealed whilst the reaction takes place.
