Title: Continuous antique finish glass sheet prodn
IPC: C03B29/08
Filed: 1970-03-10
Abstract: Generation of an antique finish to continuously produced rolled glass strip consists of subjecting the surface of the strip not in contact with its support, whilst still workable, possibly in the flame polished state, to in curve pattern applied surface forming operations. If desired, the glass can again be flame polished after this treatment and/or after solidification be subjected to a further surface forming operation followed if desired by another flame polishing operation. The pattern is applied by a rotating disc having a suitably prepared surface which is moved in a curve across the moving glass strip, this resulting in a characteristic antique type finish, as obtained with hand made glass sheet.

Title: Sausage casing - with folds clamped in jaws to make longitudinal stiffener crests to rigidify crimped products
Inventor: VALENTINE MARBACH WALTER
IPC: A22C13/02
Filed: 1970-04-28
Abstract: Crimped sausage casing is produced by passing along a spindle into gathering jaws and rollers which are fluted to produce loose folds along the tubular casing from end to end. These folds are then compressed to crests by forming jaws which work with mandrels for the casing and exert pressure on the folds when these sit in flutes in the jaws for this purpose. The forming rims of the jaws are arranged parallel and spaced in relation to the spindle axis, and thus the axis of the casing. Crests rigidify the casing and box up when forced together to form the completed bar or rod of casing.

Title: Rolling mill cooling bed - with mill scale removal channels
Inventor: FINKE KLAUS-GUENTER
IPC: B21B45/08
Filed: 1970-08-01
Abstract: The cooling beds for rolled workpieces in rolling mills are fitted with a floor which is subdivided into one or several channels in which the mill scale collects.
