Title: Spraying nozzle assembly for washing machine
Inventor: LEE JAE-YOLL
IPC: D06F39/08
Filed: 1997-02-28
Abstract: The spraying nozzle assembly has a hollow annular frame for receiving the washing liquid circulated by a circulation pump, a plurality of spraying ports for spraying the circulated washing liquid onto the article, and a plurality of impeller units 350 dispersing the washing liquid sprayed by the spraying nozzles. The spraying ports extend downward by a predetermined length. The impeller unit has a bent suspension bar having a horizontal portion and a vertical portion, and an impeller rotatably coupled to the vertical portion of the bent suspension bar. A conical tip for rotatably supporting the impeller is integrally formed at an end of the vertical portion. Impurities such as foam or suds remaining at a space formed between a spin tub and an outer tub are flushed by the washing liquid, so the washing effect is improved. The detergent remaining in the washing liquid in its solid state is dissolved by the friction between the washing liquid and the impeller unit, so the washing effect is further improved.

Patent GB-2321501-A (GB)
Title: Piezoelectric injector for fuel injection systems of i.c. engines
Inventor: AUGUSTIN ULRICH
IPC: H02N2/04
Filed: 1998-01-20
Abstract: The piezoelectric injector 1 has a piezo actuator 3 which is guided under the prestress of compression spring 10 and which presses a closure element, eg ball 14, on to a valve seat 15 via an activation component 6. The ball 14 is lifted from the seat 15 when the piezo actuator expands in the charged state. The activation component 6 is a pressure pin 7 which passes through the piezo actuator 3 and has a head 8 which bears on the piezo actuator 3. The pressure pin 7 and piezo actuator 3 are of the same length and have the same coefficient of thermal expansion, eg by being made of the same ceramic material. The opening stroke of the valve is thus unaffected by the thermal expansion of the housing 2, thus allowing a simpler design to be used. In a modification, the pressure pin extends between a pair of piezo actuators.
Patent GB-2332351-A (GB)
Title: Fishing weight/sinker with malleable mass
Inventor: BILLANY STEVEN MANDERSON
IPC: A01K95/00
Filed: 1998-06-08
Abstract: An elongate body (10) has a plurality of spaced, preferably finger-like projections (12), which are flexible or breakable. With a mass (13) of dense, malleable material, such as clay, adhered around the body and its projections, the combined unit serves as a sinker or weight, for attachment to a fishing line and other items of fishing tackle. If the weight is snagged on any sort of debris, the malleable material (13) can be stripped off (by tugging at the line to get it out from the debris) and sacrificed, while the relatively thin body (10) and its thin flexible fingers (12) will generally be able to be pulled through any obstruction (fig 4), with other items of attached tackle, such as valuable hooks, lures, bait, etc, intact.

Title: Manufacturing pads having honeycomb structures
Inventor: HUNG CHIH-SHIU
IPC: B31D3/02
Filed: 1998-10-01
Abstract: Pads having a honeycomb structure are manufactured by cutting a paper material (100) into a number of paper sheets (108), applying a number of strips (101, 102) of adhesive material onto the paper sheets alternatively superposing the paper sheets for allowing the paper sheets to be secured together into a stacked material by the strips of adhesive material, cutting the stacked material into a number of segments (10a) which are then rotated about 90 degrees, securing the segments together into a honeycomb member (106) stretching the honeycomb member, applying and securing a pair of cover sheets (2, 3) onto the upper surface and the lower surface of the honeycomb member for forming a prototype. The prototype is then cut into a number of pads such that the pads may be easily and quickly manufactured.

Patent GB-985825-A (GB)
IPC: G01N21/79
Abstract: 985,825. Automatic sugar analysis. BRITISH SUGAR CORPORATION Ltd., and H. J. BOND. Nov. 20, 1962 [Nov. 21, 1961], No. 41608/61. Heading B1X. [Also in Division G1] An automatic analyser for the detection of sugar in water comprises a test vessel, devices for inserting determined quantities of liquids into the vessel, a heater, means for measuring the opacity of liquid, means for giving a warning of variation in opacity and a timing device to operate the different integers in sequence so as to hydrolyse non-reducing sugars and indicate by the variation in opacity the concentration of sugar in the water. In the embodiment illustrated in Fig. 1, the test vessel is a tall glass vessel 1 through which a beam of light from source 3 is arranged to pass. A heating coil 4 is let into the base of the vessel, which also has inlet apertures 5, 6 and outlet apertures 7, 8 which are controlled by magnetic valves operated from a cam shaft. In operation, outlet 8 and inlet 5 are opened (outlet 9 being already open) and the aqueous sugar solution enters. After a short flush, outlet 9 is closed by valve 22 and the glass vessel fills to the level of the outlet 7. The heater is switched on and the solution boils. Valve 11 connects inlet 6 to an automatic burette 16 which delivers a predetermined volume of sulphuric acid to provide a pH of 2-4. Any non-reducing sugars are hydrolysed and after a short time valves 12, 13 are operated whereby inlet 6 is connected to automatic burette 17, which delivers a predetermined volume of sodium hydroxide and then to automatic burette 18 which delivers a volume of triphenyl tetrazolium chloride indicator. The pH rises to 11 and boiling is continued until the reactants are mixed. Photocell 19 then measures the light intensity of the beam passing through the solution (which is a measure of the sugar content of the solution). If the intensity is less than a predetermined level a relay is energized to give a warning. The mixture is flushed from the vessel 1 via outlet 9 and the operation repeated. Variations in the sequence of addition of acid, alkali and indicator to the solution are described.

The sheet 10 is sufficiently porous that the double thickness does not impair the reliability of the test.

Title: Intumescent collar
Inventor: KOVACS LAURENCE KEITH
IPC: A62C2/06
Filed: 1999-02-23
Abstract: An intumescent collar for surrounding a pipe (10, figure 4) where it penetrates a wall comprises a longitudinally split member (12, figure 1), the individual sections of which are connected at the inner surface of the member, preferably by hinges 16 with removable hinge pins 18, to enable the collar to be opened for fitting around the pipe. The member, which is preferably cylindrical, is lined with intumescent material 32 which, in a fire, expands to fill the gap between the collar and the pipe, the exterior surface of the collar already being fitted tightly in an aperture in the wall, to provide a fire proof barrier. The connection means may comprise a snap fitting tongue and groove arrangement, rather than using the removable hinge pins described above. A flange 20 may be spot welded to the cylindrical member at one end, the flange extending internally 24 and/or externally 22 of the cylindrical member. The external flange member 22, which may comprise a plurality of lugs rather than a continuous rim, preferably includes fixing holes 26 for attaching the collar to the wall. The flange may be cut back at the longitudinal splits 14 to form a recess 28,30 on each side of the hinge to permit relative pivotal movement between the individual sections (see figure 4). The cylindrical member is preferably split into two halves, but may be split into three or more individual sections if required. The cylindrical member may have a circular or rectangular cross-section.
