Abstract: 1,043,319. Powdering glass sheets. PITTSBURGH PLATE GLASS CO. June 16, 1965 [July 9, 1964], No. 25388/65. Heading B8S. Powder falls from a hopper 12 through grid 24 on to glass sheet 14 carried by rollerway 16 to form a thin protective layer thereupon. The powder is brushed through grid 24 by the longitudinal reciprocating movement of brush 66 carried by element 58 to move in guide 62 and likewise the powder is agitated by the longitudinal reciprocating movement of comb 72 carried by element 70 moving in guide 74. Brush 66 and comb 72 are vibrated in opposite directions by an eccentric not shown. Grid 24 can be adjusted horizontally by screw 36 and vertically by nut 46. Part of the grid 24 may be screened by movable screen 52. The frequency of brush and comb may be varied by varying the frequency of the eccentric. Element 76 which carries agitating comb 72 may be adjusted inside the hopper.

The front wheel-supporting member comprises a steering column 2 pivoted to the frame by a pivot pin 9 engaging in co-operating brackets 7, 20 secured respectively to the steering column 2 and to the forward end of the frame 19. The pivot pin 9 may be constituted by an upwardly extending forward end of the member 27. Alternatively the member 27 may be formed of a flat metal strip rigidly secured to the pivot pin 9. The pin 9 is a close fit in the bracket 7 so that the member 27 will oscillate from side to side as the tricyle is steered. The resiliency of the metal rod 27 will also cause the tail portion 29 to oscillate vertically.

Title: Improvements relating to apparatus for welding wire grids or networks
IPC: B23K11/00
Filed: 1950-10-24
Abstract: 681,867. Electric welding; rolling. WESTFALENHUTTE AKT.-GES. Oct. 24, 1950 [Oct. 28, 1949], No. 25902/50. Class 83 (iv). Intersecting wires to form grids or networks are resistance welded by opposed electrodes, at least one of which is a roller of such size relatively to the mesh of the network that contact is made with a fresh intersection before, or at the moment of, breaking contact with an intersection which has just been welded. As shown in Fig. 1, cross-wires 4 are welded to the longitudinal wires 3 by means of roller electrodes 1, 2, the arrangement being such that the lower roller is constantly in contact with the wires 3 and the upper roller engages an unwelded cross-wire 4 at 8 before breaking contact at E with the adjacent cross-wire 4 which has just been welded. If the size of mesh is such that a single upper roller would have to be of an inconvenient size, each electrode may comprise two electrically-coupled rollers 9, 10 and 11, 12, Figs. 7 and 8, which are staggered in an axial direction and which have their axes spaced apart by a distance such that the roller 10 engages a wire 15 to be welded before the roller 9 breaks contact with the welded wire 14 and does not break with the wire 15 until roller 9 has contacted another wire 16 to be welded. For welding a network having a curved boundary, the roller electrodes may be of conical form. In a modification the lower roller may be replaced by a flat electrode in sliding engagement with the wires 3. The gap between the electrodes is such that the wires 4 are pressed into the wires 3.

Title: Improvements in landing indicators for aeronautical machines of the helicopter type
IPC: G05D1/06
Filed: 1921-04-04
Abstract: 169,720. Perrin, E. A. April 20, 1920, [Convention date]. Sounding - apparatus. - An adjustable landing indicator warns the pilot of a. helicopter when he is within a given distance of the ground. In one form, Fig. 1, the indicator comprises a bell-crank lever f, fulcrumed on the fuselage. The short arm of the lever rests against a stop k on a slide j, which can be adjusted over a scale i to vary the distance of the end of the long arm of the lever from the fuselage. When the end contacts with the ground, a signal l moves away from a window in the slide j. The stop c and the slide j are set at corresponding positions on the scales d, i respectively. The lever f may be replaced by a lazy-tongs linkage. In another form, Fig. 3, a weight a is suspended from a pulley c, which is controlled by a spring d connected to a cord winding on the hub of the pulley. The depth of the weight a below the fuselage is determined by the position on a scale i of a stop e, which limits the extension of the spring. When the weight a reaches the ground, the frame f turns about its pivot g, and the balance weight h actuates an electric signal j. In a modification, Fig. 4, the spring d acts upon the pulley c through a second pulley e carrying a finger g adapted to engage an adjustable stop f, and the contact of the weight a with the ground is indicated by the disappearance of a signal carried by the pulley c from a window in an adjustable disc h.

Patent GB-1375624-A (GB)
IPC: G11C19/08
Filed: 1972-06-05
Abstract: 1375624 Magnetic memory arrangements SPERRY RAND CORP 5 June 1972 [4 June 1971] 26072/72 Heading H3B In a magnetic memory planar arrays of thin film storage elements having air gaps are stacked above each other, the fields produced by the air gaps enabling the planes to be coupled so that information may be shifted from one plane to another. Part of a stack is shown in Fig. 6; the elements are in the form of two thin films around a non magnetic body, which may be a drive wire, the uppermost film having a gap therein. The films have an easy axis of magnetization running around the non magnetic body. Each element is on a substrate such as 70, and has an associated bit line running parallel to its easy axis which can be operated to switch the magnetization to the hard direction. The lowermost element in Fig. 6 is part of a write plane shown in Fig. 1; in this latter figure each element has a bit line 14a-14d and a word line 12a-12d which allow the magnetic state of the elements to be set by conventional coincident overlapping pulses. The direction of magnetization can thus be set in the element at the bottom of the stack in Figure 6. The element above this in Fig. 6 is part of a plane similar to that of Fig. 1, Fig. 2 (not shown) but in which the word lines are discontinuous and act only as the non-magnetic bodies. If the bit line of this second element is pulsed the magnetization of the element rotates to the hard direction normal to the plane of Fig. 6, and when the pulse terminates the magnetization is aligned with the stray flux from the gap of the write element below. This alignment is illustrated by the arrows in Fig. 6, and by pulsing the bit line of each of the next three elements in the stack in turn the information may be transmitted to the uppermost element. To avoid the stray field from an element affecting the element below it when a bit is transferred into the latter, the bit line of the upper element is also pulsed during the transfer. The uppermost plane of the stack is used for reading, a pulse being applied on a selected word line and the resulting induced signals on the bit lines representing the word stored. The polarity of the signals read out will depend on whether there is an odd or even number of planes in the stack. The information read out may be rewritten, Fig. 13 (not shown).

The legs 4 are spread and the collar 5 lowered as driving proceeds.
