Title: Improvements in and relating to water jet ejectors
IPC: F04F5/46
Filed: 1922-10-18
Abstract: 198,639. Erste Br³nner Maschinen- Fabriks-Ges. June 2, 1922, [Convention date]. Aspirating and conveyer apparatus, ejector; regulating or controlling action. - A water-jet ejector of the kind having a number of annular nozzles is arranged so that the air or other induced fluid is in contact solely with the surfaces of the working fluid. In the arrangement shown, the inducing fluid enters at wand passes into the combining cove through the annular orifices between the nozzles r, r<1> and r<2>, r<3>. The induced fluid, which may be air or condensate, enters the ejector device from the pipe l and is compressed and ejected between the two hollow jets of inducing fluid. The various nozzle openings are arranged close together in the direction of flow, so that the induced fluid does not contact with the walls of the ejector casing. The nozzles may be fixed, or they may be adjusted longitudinally by means of a nut h. The nozzles r<2>, r<3> may also be adjustable. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) comprises also adjustment of the nozzles r, r<1> by a hand-wheel or lever, or the adjustment may be effected automatically. Besides the nozzles illustrated, other similar adjustable nozzles may be employed. A number of ejector devices may be used in multiple, arranged either in series or in parallel. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Abstract: 1,163,509. X-ray tubes. PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd. 14 June, 1968 [17 June, 1967], No. 28462/68. Heading H1D. The anode 9 of an X-ray tube is arranged adjacent a beryllium window 8 in a ferromagnetic metal envelope portion 4 adapted to produce an axial magnetic field adjacent the window to divert electrons elastically scattered from the anode and thereby prevent heating of the window by such electrons. The magnetic field may be generated by an external electromagnet 11 or by a permanent magnet, and the bore of the tube 4 is effectively magnetically screened so that the field within it is small. The interruption 12 provided in the anode tube 4 for forming the magnet poles may be suitably bridged by non-magnetic material. Preferably the tube 4 has a thickened wall portion, as illustrated, on the window side. When four windows are provided on four sides of the tube, its interior section may be square and its exterior section circular (Fig. 4, not shown. The window should be about 0À05 mm. thick to pass X-rays of a wavelength of 15 A.U. or longer.

The glued longitudinal joints e.g. oblique or hooklike, between the boards of each layer of the flanges are so arranged relatively to those in adjoining layers that all are approximately uniformly distributed as are the nails along the length of the flange. The beam end may have vertical strips 7, 8, and the nails 9, 10, securing these and the flange laths to the web are driven in alternately from both sides so as partly to penetrate the further flange or strip. Softer but tougher timber may be used for the web which may be made up of relatively high strength boards where transverse forces are great, e.g. Douglas fir near the beam support and spruce in other parts. Two beams I, II may be connected at an angle to one another in frame or arch constructions &c., a stiff quadrilateral plate S of one beam being bounded by flanges 53, 54, and one or more transverse members 55, 56, extending in the direction of the other beam flanges so as to be embraced by their fork-like extensions 59a, 60a, for assembly at the building site. Flange 54 may be connected by a thick plywood plate to an end strip 61 of beam II. Intermediate laths extending parallel or at angles to the beam flanges but of less strength may be nailed to both sides of the web. A roof girder with a slight pitch comprises similar half beams 71, 74, with the flanges connected by joint pieces 77, 78 and the webs by joint pieces 79.
