Title: Apparatus for forming a plurality of bales into a stack of prede termined size and for securing them together
IPC: A01D90/08
Filed: 1972-12-14
Abstract: 1368618 Stacking and securing bales R W JONES 14 Dec 1972 [21 Dec 1971] 59501/71 Heading B8C [Also in Division B5] Bales received singly from a baling machine are stacked and secured together with card or wire. As shown, a bale received by a platform 15 of a trailer vehicle operates a latch (32) which releases a catch (31) releasing a spring-loaded arm (28) to orientate the bale transversely of the trailer and operating a double-acting piston and cylinder unit 17 to reset the arm (29) and to raise the platform 15 into contact with the underside of a carriage 23 carrying pivotal detents 35 which retain the bale. The unit 17 then reverses its movement to lower the platform 15. Cords passing from rolls in boxes 25 through hollow needles 26 into a knotter 27 are carried upwardly by movement of the bale. The operation of the platform 15 is repeated until a column of four bales is formed when an arm 36 is lifted, releasing a catch 33 which allows the carriage 23 to be moved rearwardly by the unit 17, the column of bales being moved on to a slideway (14) where they are held between posts 40 by spring teeth 41. When five columns of bales have been deposited on the slideway (14), detected by a counter associated with the knotter 27, the knotter is operated. The bound stack is deposited on the ground by the movement of successive columns of bales. The cords and knotters may be replaced by wires and twisting devices. The front end of the vehicle has castor wheels 13 so that it may follow closely a baling machine.

Title: Method and apparatus for controlling colour temperature of an object
Inventor: SVET DARY YAKOVLEVICH
IPC: G05D23/27
Filed: 1968-12-18
Abstract: 1,222,167. Photo-electric colour temperature investigation. INSTITUT METALLURGII IM A. A. BAIKOVA. Dec. 18, 1968, No. 60189/68. Heading G1A. [Also in Division G3] A method for controlling the colour temperature of an object by its radiation from which at least two radiation fluxes of different spectral components are selected, comprises transforming the fluxes or corresponding signals so as to equalize them when the object reaches a determined temperature, deviation from this value being arranged to produce a signal controlling a heater in order to reduce such deviation. An optical input element 1 receives radiant flux from an object which is passed through a set point adjusting member 2 which adjusts the ratio of radiation fluxes dependent upon the colour temperature, the setting being effected manually by a mechanism 3 furnished with a scale 4, to a monochromator 5 which separates from the total flux irradiation fluxes having the requisite spectral composition. Irradiation fluxes are passed through a modulator 6, to a receiver 7 e.g. a photo or thermo electric or bolometer transducer which converts the fluxes into electric signals which are compared with a voltage-reference source 8 and pass to an output stage 10 which supplies a heater through terminals 11. The adjusting member 2 comprises a selective absorber i.e. a colour wedge 12 characterized by a Z-shaped spectral transmission factor/wave length curve, and a non-selective absorber 13 rigidly linked to the wedge, the absorber having a variable transmission factor. The modulator 6 is made in the form of a shutter having apertures and non- transmitting areas disposed between them. The member 2 may be adjusted manually or by a programme control arrangement (not disclosed).

Title: Improvements in or relating to data exchange systems
IPC: H04L12/52
Filed: 1969-12-10
Abstract: 1,248,327. Telegraph exchanges. SIEMENS A.G. 10 Dec., 1969 [11 Dec., 1968], No. 60239/69. Heading H4P. A centrally controlled data exchange system comprises a single-current/double current converter circuit in each subscriber loop, each said circuit having a transmitting means and a receiving means, and a central control arrangement in which polarity changes are relayed by means of operating cycles triggered by incoming polarity changes and which generates connection monitoring criteria effective to control each subscriber's converter circuit wherein said central control arrangement during normal operation of one of said converter circuits carries out at least one further operating cycle effective to inhibit reflections occurring, in the form of polarity changes, at the output of that converter circuit, and during abnormal operation, of one of said converter circuits, carries out at least one further operating cycle which is effective to generate in the form of polarity changes reflections which should have, but which have not appeared at the output of that converter-circuit. In a conventional arrangement illustrated in Fig. 2 (not shown), relay F and contact f are eliminated and contact u2 is reconnected as shown in Fig. 3.  A polarity change PW at a will be relayed to a2 if a corresponding position on contacts ul, u2 is established and after a delay time whenever a contact (not shown) in central control unit ZS, corresponding to contact f is open. A polarity change not produced by a subscriber, i.e. by reflections, can only occur if contacts ulu2 are not in the same position, which polarity change must not be relayed. It is also possible that a reflected change could also occur in the illustrated positions of ulu2 within a given time, hence the provision of a delay prevents this. By means of a further operating sequence described in the Specification, the circuitry may be reduced further, to that illustrated in Fig. 4 (not shown), which dispenses with the holding circuit for the transmitting relay also components R1, Cl, R2, C2.

Title: Improvements in or relating to optical instruments
IPC: G02B27/64
Filed: 1978-11-02
Abstract: Blurring caused by vibration of optical instruments is minimised by the use of an optical erecting system all or part of which is mounted inside the instrument for relative movement therein to allow the elements of the erecting system to maintain their relationship with respect to the instantaneous optical axis defined by the object and image and the instantaneous optical axis defined by the object and the effective positions of the instrument objective, so that any angular displacement of the optical axis of the instrument is converted into parallel displacement of the axis, the positioning of the optical elements of the erecting system causing any shift of the image to be counteracted and nullified by the inversion of movement of rays having passed through the erecting system. <IMAGE>

Title: A method of and means for producing and transmitting signals from a radiosonde
IPC: G01W1/08
Filed: 1978-12-22
Abstract: In a method of and means for producing and transmitting signals from a meteorological radiosonde capacitive sensors and a windmill- driven commutator A generate in sequence capacitive signals of the order of 10 pF related respectively to temperature, humidity, barometric pressure or other variable quantities. These signals CM control an oscillator B having an output frequency fM0 of about 1 to 10 MHz, which is divided by a factor D of the order 2<6> to 2<8> in a frequency divider C. The resulting frequency fM1 of less than 100 kHz modulates a high-frequency transmitter DT having a frequency of the order of 400 to 1700 MHz and an antenna E. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for setting seams
IPC: D05B35/02
Filed: 1979-03-20
Abstract: Seams, which may be sewn seams, are set, if desired continuously with their production, by a folder that folds back the seam allowances each to lie against the fabric reverse side on either side of the seam while the fabric face sides are adjacent each other and while the seam is constrained against lateral displacement due to the folder's being close to the needle and presser foot, which effectively control the position of the seam in the folder. The fabric face sides are opened only in the region of the seam by a "thick" blade so that the seam is pressed flat.

Title: Indicating instruments
IPC: G01D5/04
Filed: 1979-06-18
Abstract: An indicating instrument, particularly for indicating small displacements of a feeler 14 for use in locating the precise position of notches in a programme strip (not shown) to set up a machine tool, has a lever arm 18 fixed with respect to the feeler 14 and an abutment member 20 moved by the lever arm 18 to give mechanical movement magnification, the degree of magnification being different for different ranges of movement so that the instrument is most sensitive at a predetermined zone of movement of a feeler 22, thereby allowing a condensed indicator scale. The lever arm 18 acts in succession on abutments 24, 30 and 34 on the abutment member 20, so that the movement magnification increases in steps as the deflection of the feeler 14 increases. <IMAGE>
