Abstract: 675,021. Agricultural implements. HUMBERSIDE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS, CO., Ltd. Aug. 14, 1950 [May 18, 1949; June 1, 1949], Nos. 13267/49 and 14752/49. Class 6(i) [Also in Group XXXI] In an agricultural tractor consisting of three separable parts, viz. a rear part having a power unit and driven road wheels, a centre implement-carrying part and a front steering part, as described in Specification 665,693, [Group XXXI], the centre part comprises a single tubular chassis member having a tubular cross member whose ends carry supports which are interconnected beneath the chassis by a shaft on which pivot, and are axially adjustable, a number of arms to which implements may be..connected. As shown, the tractor comprises a rear part having a power unit 2 and frame 1, a centre part having a frame 12, and a front steering part 25. The centre part is clamped to the rear part as described in Specification 665,694, [Group XXXI], and to the front part as described in Specification 665,695, [Group XXXI]. The centre part comprises a tubular frame member 12 and a cross member 17, 18, to the ends of which are secured vertical supports 39, 40. The lower ends of supports 39, 40 are joined by a shaft 19 on which are pivotally mounted a number of arms 20, e.g. as described in Specification 675,071, each being capable of axial adjustment along the shaft e.g. as described in Specification 575,891, each arm having an implement 21 attached thereto. The arms 20 are each pressed into contact with the ground by spring-loaded thrust rods 41 and may all be lifted by a transverse rod 42 carried by pivot arms 43, 44 either by means of a hand lever 22 or by a hydraulic lift. The shaft 19 may be braced from the frame member 12 by brackets 45.

Abstract: 539,576. Mattresses. AUSTER, Ltd., CARTY, S. A., and SMALL, W. W. Aug. 24, 1940, No. 13426. [Class 52 (iv)] A readily portable bed or mattress for air raid shelters, camps or other places comprises a number of sponge rubber or other resilient bars 3 disposed between upper and lower sheets 1, 2 of fabric and arranged so that they may be caused to assume the erect position shown in Fig. 1, or may be folded down as shown in Fig. 5 to decrease the thickness of the bed or mattress and facilitate rolling up. The bars are hinged tu the upper and lower sheets by strips of fabric 4, 5. The upper and lower sheets have overlapping side walls 7, 8 which may be stiffened by canvas layers and are adapted to be secured together by snap fastenings 11 in order to maintain the bars 3 in erect position. After releasing the snap fastenings, relative movement of the upper and lower sheet collapses the bars as shown in Fig. 5, and permits the bed to be rolled up. The bars may be built up by rows of compression springs enclosed in elongated fabric casings.

Title: Improvements in or relating to a spring unit lacing machine
IPC: B21F33/04
Filed: 1948-05-20
Abstract: 653,021. Connecting mattress springs. STEVENS, A. H. (Johnson Spring Cushion Co.). May 20, 1948, No. 13702. [Class 83 (iv)] [Also in Group XIV] Coiling ; shearing adjuncts.-A machine for making spring mattresses comprises upper and lower elongated frames with means for clamping two rows of coil-springs 215, 216 and means for coiling a wire helix 219 and feeding it to connect the springs. The clamping means are staggered to allow the helix to first engage alternate coils in adjacent rows to maintain rectangularity of the completed mattress. An upper frame 13 carries a plurality of downwardly-facing clamping assemblies 15 adjustably positioned in the frame and a lower frame 12 carries upwardly-facing adjustable assemblies 14. The upper frame is raised and lowered by a half-revolution clutch 19 controlled by a hand lever. Both frames carry wire helix forming and feeding devices 16, 17 operated from an electromotor 18. The clamps comprise upper and lower heads 15, 14 on shafts 76, 77, 72, 73. Fixed jaws 186, 186<SP>1</SP> co-operate with jaws 188, 188<SP>1</SP> moved on rotation of the shafts 73, 77 by a rod 243 from the pedal 20. The latter is partially depressed by actuation of a pedal 262 and partly closes the upper and lower clamping assemblies and when fully depressed closes fully the clamps, and causes actuation of both wire helix-forming and feeding mechanisms 16, 17. A solenoid 21 and control switch 22 stop the actuation of the wire helix forming and feeding mechanisms and opens the jaw assembly 14 of the lower frame and a solenoid 23 controlled by a switch 24 control similar mechanism of the upper frame. The electromotor 18 drives a shaft 36 with sprocket 38 connected through a half-revolution clutch 19, controlled by hand lever 66, to a shaft 40 with eccentrics 41, 42 connected through adjustable mechanism to the upper frame. A collar 43 on the shaft 40 actuates reciprocating cutters for shearing the wire. The shaft 36 drives a shaft 97 carrying wheels 134 which feed the wires through a spiral groove 159 in a mandrel 157 in an adjustable housing 148 to effect coiling. An adjustable pin 164 determines the pitch. In operation, the clutch 19 is operated to lower the upper frame and the pedal 20 is partially depressed to part-close the clamping assemblies. Two rows of springs are inserted in the clamping jaws and the pedal 20 is fully depressed to clamp the springs. The coiling and feed mechanisms operate to form and feed helices through spaces in the clamping jaws to lace together the springs. When the helices contact the switch 22, Fig. 23, not shown, the solenoid operates to stop the wire feed and opens the clamp assembly. The clutch 19 is then operated to raise the upper frame and to shear both helices.

Title: Reactors for forming layers on substrates
IPC: C30B25/08
Filed: 1972-03-24
Abstract: 1351561 Apparatus for forming layers on substrates TEXAS INSTRUMENTS Inc 24 March 1972 [19 April 1971] 13893/72 Heading C1A Apparatus for depositing a layer on a substrate (e.g. an epitaxial layer of silicon on a silicon semi-conductor disc) comprises means for supporting and rotating said substrate, means for controlling the temperature of said substrate at a predetermined value, and gas supply and control means for directing a gas over at least one surface of said substrate. As shown (Fig. 1) a reaction chamber provides means to support and rotate a semi-conductor slice or substrate and these consist of a spin ring 22 caused to rotate by passage of a gas such as hydrogen through openings formed therein, a slice support disc 24 and a positioning ring 25. A heating device 12 is positioned below the slice and its temperature monitored by a radiation type sensing device outside a quartz window 36. The reactant gas enters through 38 and is distributed by annulus 40, flowing over the top of the slice and out through port 42. The spin gas enters through port 44 through openings in the spin ring round the edge of the support disc 24, mixes with the deposition gas and leaves via 42. The quartz window 36 may be cooled by water circulating through passages 32. A turntable 26 provides means whereby the slices may be automatically transferred into and removed from the deposition chamber. If desired (Fig. 3) the spin ring may be replaced by a support clip 48, the slice support disc 24 being replaced by spin disc 50. This disc 50 is formed with a series of holes or passages near the centre of the slice and which makes an angle of 30 degrees with the surface of the spin disc, thus causing the slice or substrate to spin as the spin gas flows through them. Special unloading and loading mechanisms and slice storage and handling devices are described (Fig. 4, not shown) when depositing silicon on a silicon substrate, the deposition gas is preferably silane and the spin gas hydrogen: the temperature of the substrate is preferably about 1100 C.

Filed: 1921-05-18
Abstract: 182,634. Marles, H. May 18, 1921. Non-reactive steering- mechanism for separately pivoted axles.- In steering-gear of the kind in which camsurfaces on the steering-shaft engage roller surfaces mounted on a rocker shaft, a single roller disc is employed and its face engages both cam-surfaces; the disc may be adjustable to take up wear. As shown, the disc 19, which engages both cams 16, 17, is rotatably mounted on a washer 18 with an inclined lower face bearing on an inclined face of a recess in the rock-shaft 6. The washer can be moved along the face to adjust the mechanism for wear by means of a screw 25, a semi-circular key 24 being provided between the washer and shaft. In a modification, the washer has parallel faces and is mounted in a recess, in the rock-shaft with its face in a plane inclined to the axis of the shaft, and wear is taken up by moving the shaft axially. The disc may be of frusta-conical shape, the cam surfaces being correspondingly modified, and may be adjusted by an axial screw.
