Abstract: 1,159,848. Extruding meat patties. UKRAINSKY NAUCHNO - ISSLEDOVATELSKY I KONSTRUKTORSKY INSTITUT PRODOVOLSTVENNOGO MASHINOSTROENIA. 30 June, 1967, No. 30301/67. Heading B5A. An extrusion apparatus particularly intended for the production of meat patties, comprises a nozzle 2 having a curvilinear outer surface and a knife 4 having a correspondingly shaped surface which allows the knife to be slid across orifice 5. The knife is mounted via a bushing 8 and sleeves 9 on a projection 7 of nozzle 2 and is releasably held in position by a screw 10 whose inner end engages a groove on the projection. In operation, knife 4 is reciprocated by means of lever 11, and to form patties, meat paste and casing material is extruded as described in Specification 1,136,348, the downstream end of the casing being closed by positioning knife 4 to cover orifice 5, moving the knife to allow the extrusion of a length of meat paste and subsequently moving the knife to cut an unfilled portion of the casing whilst at the same time deforming the casing to cover the upstream end of the extruded meat length.

Title: Rotary drive for flying metal-cutting shears
Inventor: FERNBACH HANS RAINER
IPC: B23D36/00
Filed: 1951-12-31
Abstract: 692,915. Shearing. LOEWY ENGINEERING CO., Ltd. Dec. 31, 1951, No. 30459/51. Class 83 (iv). A rotary drive for flying shears comprises two separate gear trains with different speed reductions which are alternately made operative and inoperative between successive cutting operations to enable one gear train to drive the shear during cutting and the other to drive the shear during the rest of the cycle. Rotary flying shears 10 with blades 13 are driven through a reduction gear 14 from a shaft 22 coupled through gearing 23, 24 and an electromagnetic clutch 26 to a shaft 21 rotated from an electromotor 19. The train 23 rotates the shear at the basic speed and the train 24 drives the shear at less than the basic speed. If the train 23 is permanently in operation and the train 24 inoperative the shear will be driven at the basic speed. In order to vary the length cut the clutch 26 is actuated to allow the electromotor 19 to drive the shear at a reduced speed through the gearing 28 between cuts. The clutch 26 may be controlled by two rotary cam-actuated switches on the shaft 11, the operating cams being angularly adjustable. The clutch may also be controlled as shown in the drawing. A rotary limit switch 33 is attached to the shear shaft 11 and two small alternators 34, 35 driven from the shafts 21, 22 are coupled to an induction machine 36, the rotor of which carries control means 37 for energizing and de-energizing the coils 31, 32 of the clutch. The shear begins to rotate at basic speed. At a preselected point of rotation of the shear the clutch is operated by switch 33 and the gear train 24 made operative. The lag between the shafts 21, 22 is indicated by the rotor of the inductor 36 and the control means 37 operates the clutch when the difference reaches a predetermined amount.

Abstract: 505,213. Grinding-machines. AKTIEBOLAGET LINHAM. Nov. 8, 1937, No. 30010. Convention date, Nov. 9, 1936. [Class 60] A grinding-machine comprises coaxiallyarranged rotating grinding discs 3 and 4 carried by a cross slide 9 on opposite sides of a rotating work piece 18 carried by a framo 27 adapted to be reciprocated in a direction parallel to the axis of the discs, the work 18 being mounted in a holder 20 which is pivotally carried by the frame 27 through conical centres 22 'and which is normally held against an adjustable abutment 66 on the frame 27 so that the pivotal axis of the holder 20 is disposed in the plane containing the axes of rotation of the work and of the discs. A projection 65 of the holder 20 is normally held against the abutmeiit 66 by means of a screw 72 threaded through a stirrup member 70 pivoted on the frame 27. On releasing the screw 72 and moving the stirrup, the holder 20 can be swung away from the discs through 180‹ into contact with the front portion of the frame, so as to permit examination of the work and to permit a diamond 45, adjustably carried by the holder 20 in the plane containing the pivotal axis thereof and the axis of the work, to be used for trucing the grinding discs. Each grinding disc is driven by a separate fluid turbine 15. The work piece 18, the internal surface of which is to be ground by the discs, which latter engage the part 50 of the surface nearest to the pivotal axis of the holder 20, is secured by a conical wedge within a sleeve 35 journalled in the holder. the sleeve having secured thereto a pulley 34 connected by a belt 51 to a pulley 52 journalled on the holder 20 coaxially with the pivotal axis of the latter, the pulley 52 being integral with a pulley 53 connected by a belt to a pulley on the shaft of an electric motor 60 mounted on a bracket portion of the frame 27. A finger 76 movable on a guideway on the frame 27 is used to check the bore in the work piece when the holder 20 is swung out, the finger giving an indication on a dial 75. The frame 27 is angularly adjustable about a vertical axis on its table 28, so that either a cylindrical or a conical surface may be ground. According to the Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91, a grinding disc or discs may be mounted in a swingable holder, the work holder being fixed to its frame. Further, the disc may be reciprocated axially, while the work is carried on a cross slide. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Abstract: 1,069,501. Measuring temperature electrically. VARIAN ASSOCIATES. July 20, 1965 [July 20, 1964], No.30791/65. Heading G1N. [Also in Divisions G3 and H3] In a nuclear quadrupole resonance (N.Q.R.) thermometer, a sample such as K Cl O 3  or Na Cl O 3 , having a temperature dependent N. Q. R. line, is magnetically coupled to a coil 4 in the tank circuit 2 of an r.f. marginal oscillator 1 and a D. C. feedback signal is applied to a varactor diode 7 in the tank circuit to lock the frequency of the marginal oscillator to the centre of the N. Q. R. line. As shown in Fig. 1, an a.f. modulating signal from an oscillator 10 is also fed to diode 7 and is detected in a detector 16 and the fundamental of the detected signal is compared in a phase-sensitive detector 18 with the output from oscillator 10 to provide the D.C. feedback signal in line 21. The frequency of the marginal oscillator is counted for an integral number of modulation cycles in a counter 13 which may be calibrated directly in temperature or frequency. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown), a frequency tripler (24) is included between oscillator (10) and phase-sensitive detector (18) which compares this input with the third harmonic of the detected signal. It is stated that temperatures may be measured instantaneously and continuously to an accuracy of Œ 0.0001‹K over a range from 10‹K to 641‹K. The sample is preferably shielded from stray magnetic fields. Automatic temperature control [Division G3] is described.
