In a vehicle heating system the housing containing the heating and cooling apparatus and associated mechanism also contains a plenum chamber 5 in its upper portion that is immediately below the usual air inlet that also receives rain and snow, drain means is provided from the housing. Fresh or recirculated air passes first through the evaporator of a refrigerating system and then through a heater, or it may by-pass the heater, the conditioned air then being supplied to the windscreen, to the passenger compartment at face level, and to the passengers' feet as required. One or two centrifugal fans force the air through the system. Fresh air enters an inlet 7 and recirculated air enters at 8. Both streams pass through the evaporator 50 then either through a heat exchanger 10 supplied with hot engine coolant or through a by-pass port 12 and then enters one or more fans 18. Air from the fan issues at 24 to the windscreen, through adjustable vanes 27 to the passengers' faces and from outlet 20 to the passengers' feet. Flaps controlling the inlets and outlets are operated by vacuum actuators connected to a reservoir 43 which is in turn connected to the inlet manifold of the vehicle engine. A temperature control 38 and an air flow control 39 are provided. The flow of engine coolant through the heat exchanger 10 may be controlled by a variably settable thermostatic valve. In a modification, all the air passes through the heat exchanger 10, but if heating is not required, a water valve shuts off the supply of hot coolant to the exchanger 10.

In cinematographic apparatus, e.g. a projector, the film is wound under the action of at least one feed roller to a take-up spool coupled to a driving means through a magnetic clutch. As described, the take-up spool 3 is mounted at one end of a rotatable shaft 23 which also carries the clutch. The clutch comprises a first section 24 comprising a non-magnetic core 25 mounted on the shaft 23 and having a magnetic ring 27 mounted thereabout e.g. via a gum-mastic element 28, and a second section 29 comprising a cylindrical non-magnetic cylinder mounted around the ring 27 by means of magnetic end covers 31, 32 which are freely rotatable about the shaft 23 on bearings 35. The covers 31, 32 carry magnetic ring extensions 37 which are brought close to the ring 27 to form a magnetic circuit therethrough. The cover 31 carries a gear wheel 38 mounted about the shaft 23 and rotated by the drive means, thereby rotating the second section 29 which is followed by the first section under its magnetic coupling, at a speed-lag depending on the load exerted by the take-up spool 3. The end plate 32 is screw threaded into the cylinder 30 such that the gap between its extensions 37 and the ring 27 may be adjusted to determine the speed-lag. The clutch acts as a brake when the spool is being unwound, at which time the second section is held stationary.

Abstract: 1,231,460. Distillation and deodorisation of liquids. ROSE, DOWNS & THOMPSON Ltd. 3 Oct., 1968, No. 47068/68. Addition to 1,101,358. Heading B1B. [Also in Division C5] Liquids, e.g. vegetable oils, are distilled or deodorised in a vessel 12 containing a coil 15 which is supplied with low-temperature heatexchange fluid, e.g. steam, until the temperature of the oil reaches about 160‹C and its viscosity has decreased; the steam to coil 15 is then shut off and the oil is circulated by pump 21 through an external heat-exchanger 17 where it is heated in coil 18 to hightemperature e.g. 210‹-220‹C., by an organic heat-exchange fluid supplied by heater 24. The hot oil is returned to vessel 12 through line 22 and spray device 23. Preferably, line 22 incorporates a restriction to put the oil in coil 18 under pressure. Sparge steam is passed through line 19 into the oil in vessel 12. The vapours evolved from the oil leave vessel 12 through pipe 14 which is connected to a vacuum pump. When the distillation or deodorisation operation is completed, heater 24 is shut off but the circulation of oil is maintained while cooling water is passed through coil 15. The cooled oil is discharged through valve 26. In an alternative method of treatment, the oil is heated by coil 15 and heatexchanger 17 simultaneously.

Title: A Magnetic Memory.
IPC: G11C8/02
Filed: 1967-10-20
Abstract: 1,168,743. Magnetic data storage apparatus. NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO. 20 Oct., 1967 [14 Nov., 1966], No. 47831/67. Heading H3B. In a coincident-current magnetic memory the back EMF on one of the driven read-lines is sensed to determine a stored bit. During a read cycle for core 52, negative pulses are applied to the bases of transistors 62, 132 and 116 so that the first is non-conducting and the others are in saturation, current flowing through line 56 between negative terminal 136 and ground. After a short interval, to allow this current to become established, a negative pulse is applied to terminal 58 so that element 52 is switched to "0" if it was previously in a "1" state. The back EMF on line 56 is coupled through capacitor 140 to a sense amplifier. In one embodiment the sense amplifier circuit includes a threshold detector which is strobed at the moment when the pulse on line 54 reaches its maximum value and switching commences. In a modification two pulses are supplied to line 54 during the period of a pulse on line 56. The first pulse switches the selected element, if a "1" was stored, and the second generates a reference output by interrogating the element when a "0" is stored. The pulses are supplied to a differential amplifier having one input connected directly to terminal 141 and the other connected to it via a delay line, so that the delayed output caused by the first read pulse coincides with the undelayed output caused by the second, at which time the amplifier is strobed. Alternatively, the delay line may be eliminted by providing a dummy line driven by the row read pulse. A second column read pulse is not then necessary. It is also suggested that the two inputs to the differential amplifier may be connected to lines threading different cores in the matrix, only one of which is driven during a read cycle. The data read-out may be rewritten. It is stated that read-out may be non-destructive.

Abstract: 1,004,233. Hydraulic shock - absorbers. DAIMLER-BENZ A.G. Dec. 10, 1963 [Dec. 13, 1962], No. 48825/63. Heading F2S. In a hydraulic shockabsorber comprising a piston 2 which works in a cylinder 3 with bores 5, 6 controlled respectively by sets of check valve plates 7, 8 the rate of the valve 7, which controls clamping during contraction of the unit, is adjustable by an annular member 15 which is slidably mounted on the inner end of a hollow piston rod 1 and which can be pressed down on to the valve plates 7 by a varying amount to control the damping characteristics. The inner end of the piston r‹d 1 has an axial bore 9 which extends upwards into a narrower bore 10 containing a fluid whose pressure is controllable externally of the shock-absorber and which accommodates a slide valve 12 having pins 14 which project through a pair of diametrically opposed slots 13 in the wall of the piston rod 1 and engage in corresponding bores in the annular member 15. In the chaindotted position of the parts 12, 14, 15 communication is established, through the bore 9 and the slots 13, between the spaces 4, 16 below and above the piston 2. When the pressure in the piston rod bore 10 is adjusted to become higher than the pressure within the bore 9 the parts 12, 14, 15 are pressed down on to the valve 7 so that the passage through the slots 13 is closed and a downward force is applied to the valve plates 7 the resistance to relative downward movements of the piston 2 being increased. Increased fluid pressure can cause a complete closing of the valve 7.
