Title: A method of and means for fixedly securing electric contact tags to base boards
Inventor: GREASLEY ERIC ARTHUR
IPC: H05K13/04
Filed: 1958-01-13
Abstract: 849,941. Making electrical circuit assemblies; jointing by forging. PRESSAC Ltd. March 23, 1959 [Jan. 13, 1958], No. 1150/58. Classes 83 (2) and 83 (4). A method of fixedly securing electric contact tags to base-boards corsists in feeding a strip of tags each having locating shoulders intermittently step-by-step to a machine which acts to sever the tags successively from said strip and to locate each tag for engagement througn a hole in a base-board so that the shoulders engage one face of the board, and thereafter deforming a part of the tag against the other side of the board so that the tag is positively gripped against both faces of the board. Each tag comprises a wide central portion 3 with shoulders 6 (Fig. 3), a part 4 which is connected to the carrier strip 2 and a tongue 5. As each tag enters the machine it is acted upon by a vertically displaceable lower bending punch 8 (Fig. 6) which bends the tag through 90 degrees and then severs the tag from the strip by means of a shearing-blade 9 attached to the puncn. The lower end of the tag is gripped between the punch 8 and a fixed anvil 10 and a printed circuit board is engaged over the upstanding tag with the tag shoulders 6 abutting the underside of the board. A hollow upper punch 11 is lowered over the tag to deform the corners of the wide portion 3 against the top surface of the board to secure the tag in position. The board is then removed by hand and lowered over the next tag which has been bent up and sheared from the strip. The punch is guided between blocks 13 and 14 and operated by a compressedair cylinder 15a controlled by valves 17 which also operate an air cylinder 18 for actuating the upper punch 11. The feed mechanism comprises a feed-block 19 fitted with a depressible spring-loaded feed-pin 20 for engaging successively in pilot holes in the tag strip and a stationary block 23 which is also fitted with a spring-loaded pin 24 for holding the strip against longitudinal movement when the feed-block returns in a non-feeding direction. The feedblock is secured to a reciprocable actuating- plate 25 formed with a cam slot 28 through which projects a pin 29 connected to the pistonrod of the air cylinder 15a. During downward movement of the punch the actuating-plate and feed block are moved in the feeding direction to bring the next tag into position, whereupon the retainer pin 24 snaps into a hole and locates the strip. As the punch moves upwardly to bend and sever the tag the cam slot returns the plate and feed-block to their original position.

Title: A method of preparing foamable thermoplastic materials
IPC: C08J9/20
Filed: 1961-01-13
Abstract: Vinyl polymers are prepared in the form of foamable granules containing volatile foaming agents by partial bulk catalytic polymerization in the absence of foaming agent followed by completion of polymerization in aqueous suspension with a catalyst and a volatile foaming agent at a temperature below the boiling point of the foaming agent.  Catalyst may be added between the bulk and suspension polymerization reactions and may be the same as or different from that used in the first reaction.  In Examples (1) Styrene is bulk polymerized with benzoyl peroxide at 80 DEG C. until 60% conversion has been attained.  The reaction mixture is cooled, and more benzoyl peroxide and a 2% potato starch solution are added to form a suspension.  Cyclopentane is added as foaming agent and polymerization continued in suspension at 80-90 degrees and 4 atm. pressure.  (2) is similar, using a , a  1-azo-bis-isobutyronitrile as catalyst in the first stage, acetylbenzoyl peroxides in the second stage, gelatine as the suspending medium and petroleum ether as foaming agent.  (3) Methyl methacrylate is bulk polymerized with acetyl benzoyl peroxide, then polymerized in aqueous talc suspension with further acetyl benzoyl peroxide, and a cyclopentane-n heptane mixture as foaming agent.  The granules can be foamed up in hot water or steam.

Abstract: 956,895. Hydraulic transmission of power. DOWTY HYDRAULIC UNITS Ltd. March 8, 1963 [Jan. 16, 1962], No. 1578/62. Heading F2C. The displacement regulator of a variable reversible positive displacement pump is operated on by a servomotor the control of which is responsive to hydraulic flow through the pump and operates only through a small range of movement from the zero displacement position. A hydrostatic transmission for a vehicle comprises a positive displacement pump 1 and a fixed displacement motor 4, the displacement of the reversible pump 1 being controlled manually by a lever 11. The lever 11 is connected to a lever 15 bearing two pegs 18, 19, acting as stops for a lever 17 frictionally engaged by the motor shaft 5 to sense rotation of that shaft. The pegs 18, 19 are spaced just sufficiently apart such that at zero displacement position of the lever 11, any rotation of the shaft 5 will cause the lever 17 to open a relative vent valve 21 or 22 to vent a servo unit 28 or 29 causing the non- vented servo, under the pressure from a makeup pump, to move the lever 11 through a cam 31 to reduce the pump displacement until the flow through the pump is zero. The pegs are so spaced that movement of the lever 11 to produce a desired rotation of the shaft 5 cannot be reduced by the opening of a vent valve, since the lever 17 abuts a peg before reaching a valve opening position. The return of pump displacement to zero may also be performed by electrically controlled servo means controlled by flow metering devices in the pump/motor pipelines.

Abstract: 555,212. Wireless signalling ; television. MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CO., Ltd. Feb. 9, 1942, No. 1708. Convention date, Feb. 7, 1941. [Classes 40 (iii) and 40 (v)J To avoid distortion in television and picture transmission due to the reception of indirect or reflected waves, the carrier frequency is charged periodically by synchronizing signals at the end of each line, or each frame or at the end of a determined number of lines or frames ; the frequency change being of such amount that the signals over the direct or desired path combine in their effect, while those over the indirect or undesired path do not so combine. With interlaced scanning, an odd number of lines is used, and the frequency change is made at the end of each line, so that the same line on successive frames is sent at different frequencies. When only one indirect or reflected path is in question, the two adjacent frequencies are so selected that the difference in length between the direct and indirect paths represents one half the mean wave-length, or an odd multiple thereof. Four carrier frequencies may be used in turn in such an order that changes from one frequency to the next adjacent frequency are avoided as far as possible. As shown, television signals applied at 1, 3 are amplified at 5 and modulate the radio transmitter 7. The synchronizing signals are separated at 9 and applied to a tripping-device I giving a rectangular output wave which changes the carrier frequency periodically. The rectangular wave may be derived from an oscillator which synchronizes the saw-tooth scanning wave. Specifications 402,629 and 474,682 ; and U.S.A. Specification 2,000,685 are referred to.
