Filed: 1973-10-06
Abstract: 1425353 Image pick-up tube ENGLISH ELECTRIC VALVE CO Ltd 14 Aug 1974 [6 Oct 1973] 46784/73 Heading H1D In a cylindrically symmetric vidicon or image orthicon tube, in which a fine conductive mesh 7 is stretched adjacent to the target, microphony in the mesh may be avoided by inclusion between the metal members 4, 9 which clamp the mesh of a ring of heavier Cu mesh 10 which is forced by member 9 into corrugations. The mesh ring 10 then touches the fine-mesh 7 at points different from those at which it touches ring 9, allowing damping of vibrations. Both ring 9 and mesh ring 10 terminate at the boundary 12 of the useful picture area. Alternatively the mesh ring 10 may be fitted between member 4 and mesh 7, in either case the members 4 and 9 are dished apart to clear mesh 7 and to allow restricted movement of ring 10. In the embodiment the assembly is fitted to a vidicon tube (Fig. 1 not shown). All members 4, 7, 10, 9 are secured by spot welding round their outer periphery.

Abstract: 1528380 Radio communication systems CSELTCENTRO STUDI E LABORATORI TELECOMUNICAZIONI SpA 24 Nov 1975 [25 Nov 1974] 48155/75 Heading H4L A conventional analogue radio signal transmission system which includes an automatic switching means requiring for its operation a pilot signal having a frequency f p  and a noise signal centred about a frequency f r  is adapted for digital data signals, which are not accompanied by a pilot signal f p  and which have a noise signal centred on a frequency f 1  rather than f r , by the provision of a unit SPR which provides the required signal f p  and which converts the received noise signal at frequency f 1  into a noise signal at the required frequency # r . As shown, a digital signal including noise in a frequency band centred on a first frequency f 1  is received at terminal 1 for processing so that a switching network CCA can be provided with a pilot signal and with a signal at a second frequency f r , the latter signals being necessary for the correct functioning of the network. Thus, the received signal is fed to a filter PA passing only frequencies centred on f 1 , the output from the filter being applied to a frequency converter TF associated with an oscillator AA such that the output from TF, filtered at PB, is at the required frequency f r . An oscillator AB generates the pilot signal which is passed, and a switch C controlled by a synchronization recovery circuit RS, to an adder which also receives the output from filter PB, the adder output being supplied to the network CCA. The adder may be omitted, the required signals then being separately supplied to the network.

Abstract: 1,002,220. Otter boards. INSTITUT FUR SCHIFFBAUTECHNIK WOLGAST. Dec. 9, 1963, No. 48467/63. Heading B7A. An arrangement for the handling of otter boards comprises a movable trawl line pulley 13 arranged transversely of a hoisting slipway 14 adapted to be arranged in an upper horizontal position as shown or in a lower horizontal position 16 in the slipway 14, a first connecting sleeve 4 attached to otter board 1 and a retaining member 7 adapted to retain sleeve 4 such that when the sleeve 4 is retained the trawl line 2 is guided into the sleeve and the retaining member 7 by the pulley 13 as said pulley is raised. As shown, otter board 1 is provided with a yoke which includes a guide rod 19. At one end of rod 19 is a fixed sleeve 4 and slidingly mounted on the rod is a sleeve 8. Two stands 3 mounted on either side of pulley 13 on a base 10 have each a head 9 on which is mounted a swivel member 6 from which a stirrup 5 is pivotally suspended which carries retaining member 7. From the pivot of member 6 there extends guide rollers 12 which project into stirrup 5 to guide trawl line 2 into member 7. In letting out the fishing net, after the net wings have passed pulley 13 which is in recess 16, the pulley is raised by hydraulic rams (Fig. 2, not shown) into its upper position. The sleeve 8 has rocker arms which engage apertures in sleeve 4 which in turn has rocker arms which engage member 7 (Fig. 4, not shown). As the pulley 13 is raised the trawl line 2 is guided between rollers 12 and through slots in sleeves 4 and 8 and member 7. As the trawl line 2 is paid out a catch member attached thereto engages a rocker arm in sleeve 8 whereby it releases itself from sleeve 4 and becomes attached to the trawl line. Sleeve 8 moves as far as the end of guide rod 19 remote from sleeve 4. A further catch member on trawl line 2 similarly engages a rocker arm on sleeve 4 which releases it from member 7 so that the otter board 1 is now attached to line 2 and is pulled away from magnets 11 which held it in place.

Abstract: 492,605. Kitchen ranges. GARLAND, T. S. March 22, 1937, No. 8308. [Class 126] A damper 9 when vertical allows the hot gases from the fire-space 4 to pass to the chimney 3 both through passages 8, 7, 5, around the oven 1 and through passages 6a, 6 in front of and behind the boiler 2. When the boiler alone is to be heated the damper 9 is turned to one horizontal position so as to shut off the escape of the gases from the passage 5 which lies between the oven and the fire. When the oven alone is to be heated the damper 9 is turned to the other horizontal position to shut off the flow of gases through the passages 6, 6a. An additional damper 10 allows the passage 6 behind the boiler to be shut off and a master damper 11 may be provided to allow the chimney passage to be closed altogether.

Abstract: 1445749 Foundry moulding SHERWINWILLIAMS CO 24 Oct 1973 [12 Dec 1972] 49473/73 Heading B3F A foundry jolt moulding machine includes a vertically movable table 15 for supporting a sand-filled flask and which, in its vertically extended position, causes the sand to be compressed and subjected to jolts imparted to the table by a ram 16 provided with an insert 62 of elastomeric sound attenuating material. An extension 14 of the table is slidable in a piston 12 received by a base 10. With the table, ram and piston in their lowered positions, Fig. 1, jolting of the table against an annular elastomeric insert 32 is produced by pressure air admitted at 23 via a poppet valve 25 causing the table to be raised slightly until air exhaust ports 35 align with a groove 34 in the ram; air is thereby allowed to exhaust via bores 38 and slots 41 to a chamber 42 having mufflers 48. Upward table movement effects poppet valve closure and, with the exhaust of air, allows the table to fall against the insert 32. When the table, ram and piston are extended by pressure air supplied through a passage 54 to squeeze the sand in the flask, the supply of pressure air through the poppet valve produces a lowering of the ram, closing of the valve and exhaust of the air, whereupon the ram is forced upwardly by air pressure below the extension 17 causing the insert 62 to strike the table. In a modification, Fig. 3, not shown, air exhaust ports extend through the annular insert and include sound mufflers; in a further embodiment, Fig. 6, not shown, the exhaust ports with sound mufflers are located at the top of the piston.

A tape 8, unsecured to the sheath walls, extends between and through them in the region of the slits. It is of a higher melting point material than the sheaths to prevent adhesion during welding of the latter. In use, the tape is raised to break the small portion 9 of the upper sheath wall of the end sheath. It will then raise the upper wall at the slit to permit entry of the thermometer. A thermometer is inserted, the sheath removed and drawn off the tape which is then used to open the next sheath and so on. Chalk &c. may be placed within the sheaths to facilitate introduction of the thermometers. To avoid breaking the portion 9, this may be replaced by a slot (not shown).
