Abstract: 1466000 Interlocking element for sliding clasp fasteners YOSHIDA. KOGYO KK 24 Dec 1974 [28 Dec 1973] 55843/74 Heading E2S In an interlocking fastener element 10 for a sliding clasp fastener the element is formed from a single filament into a row of interconnected clasps, each clasp, other than an end clasp, comprising a coupling head 15 and two legs 16, 17 extending from opposite sides of the coupling head 15, each said leg 16, 17 being formed from two closely side-by-side pieces of element 11, 11, the end remote from the coupling head 15 of one of the legs 16 having a fold 13 where the two pieces of said one leg 16 are integrally joined together, and the end remote from the coupling head 15 of the other leg 17 having two extensions 14 integrally joining the respective clasp to adjacent clasps on either side thereof. As shown the filamentary element 10, made of plastics or metal, is initially formed with a plurality of projections 11 each of which has a fold 13, juxtaposed filament sections 11 which are flattened centrally to form a coupling head 15, and a connecting portion 14. Each projection 11 is bent into a U-shape about its coupling head 15 to provide a clasp with an upper leg 16 which is free at the folded end 13, and a lower leg 17, the clasps being interconnected by the portions 14 to form a substantially ladder-like fastener element structure E, Fig. 2. The element E is sewn to a tape (T), Figs. 3, 4 not shown, by sewn stitches (S) with the upper and lower legs (16, 17) astride a longitudinal edge of the tape. In a modification, Fig. 6, each fold 13 is flattened at 18 and fused, or welded, to the tape T. In a further modification, Fig. 7, the lower leg 17 of each clasp is offset towards the upper leg 16 so that the element E can be mounted on one surface of the tape T.

Title: Improvements in or relating to layer resistance elements for voltage dividers
IPC: H01C10/48
Filed: 1968-11-26
Abstract: 1,210,580. Variable resistors. WALTER PREH [trading as PREH ELEKTROFEINMECHANISCHE WERKE JACOB PREH NACHFOLGER]. 26 Nov., 1968 [1 Dec., 1967; 20 Feb., 1968; 10 April, 1968], No. 56134/68. Heading H1S. A resistance element for a variable voltage divider comprises resistive material on a substrate, the element being divided into sections by transverse conductive strips C, D, G, each section including a main resistance part B and a shunt resistance part N, the main resistance parts presenting a wiper path S and the shunt resistance parts being adjusted so that each section resistance is matched to the values given by a voltage characteristic curve. Tolerances of less than 2 per cent can be achieved, whereby the voltage divider is suitable for tuning HF circuits by varying the blocking voltage of variale capacitance diodes. Conductive strips C, D, G are as thin as possible to avoid step changes in voltage, and may be interrupted in the region of the wiper path S. As shown, for a voltage divider having a non-lever characteristic curve further parallel resistances P I , P II  and P III  may be included, the latter being integral with shunt resistance N III . Adjustment of the shunt resistances may be achieved by removal of resistive material by scoring along the dashed line, preferably by a motor driven tool controlled by a resistance measurement device so that it stops when the correct trimming has taken place. Alternatively, the shunt resistances may be short circuited by a conductive strip along one edge, and the resistances increased by removal of this strip (Fig. 2, not shown). The resistance element may be circular (Fig. 4, not shown) or a multiple divider may have common conductive cross-pieces and the thus parallel-connected sections have common trimmable shunt resistances (Fig. 6, not shown). The circular element is shown as having a further track and shunt section at the initial terminal to give a base-point resistance matchable to an exact fraction of the total voltage. In a modification (Figs. 8, 9, not shown) the track resistance of every second section has its own wiper for independent variation so that the divider has a number of continuously adjustable stepped voltages.

Title: Cross-winding machines
IPC: B65H65/00
Filed: 1973-12-04
Abstract: 1485951 Continually winding and doffing yarn packages WILLIAM AYRTON & CO Ltd 4 Dec 1974 [4 Dec 1973] 56190/73 Heading D1J When a cross-wound package, shown in full lines on a wind-up mandrel 5a, Fig. 3, is complete, a doffing plate 6 is moved from position A to position B to move the wound package to the broken line position on the portion 5 of the mandrel. There is then a dwell in the movement of the plate 6 while a few fresh turns are wound on the mandrel 5a by the traverse means 3, the rotation of the wound package at the mandrel speed being maintained whilst these fresh turns are being wound. The plate 6 then moves to position C and thus pushes the package off the rotating mandrel 5 and onto a stationary support 9. The yarn extending between the doffed package on the support 9 and the new package now forming on the mandrel 5a twists around a knife 8 at the free end of the support 9. At this stage the plate 6 returns to its original setting and so passes over the package now being formed on the mandrel 5a. Fig. 2 shows the shape of the plate 6 relatively to two side-by-side mandrels 5 and one traverse mechanism 3. As soon as the plate 6 has returned to its original setting the knife 8 cuts the new package free and grips the end leading from the doffed package. The support 9 then swings about a pivot to discharge the wound package into a cup 12 carried by a conveyor 11. In a modified embodiment, Fig. 5 (a), the fully wound package is doffed onto a support 9 that initially rotates at the same speed as the winding mandrel 5 so that the rotation of the wound package can be maintained until a few fresh turns have been wound on the mandrel 5. After a few fresh turns have been wound on the mandrel 5 the plate 6 is retracted to its original setting and the speed of the support 9 is reduced to cause the yarn extending between the mandrel 5 and the support 9 to wrap around a hook 17 at the end of the support 9. A knife or hot wire then passes between the hook 17 and the mandrel 5 to cut the yarn. When the support 9 has been slowed substantially to rest the support 9 is retracted axially to doff the package into a cup 12. Fig. 6 (b) shows an embodiment that is similar to that of Fig. 5 (a) except that the support 9 is initially in driven engagement with the mandrel 5. After the wound package has been transferred to the support 9, and a few fresh turns of the new package have been wound on the mandrel 5, the support 9 is retracted to cause it to slow down. The yarn is then caught and cut as before and the support 9 swung about a pivot 21 to cause a doffing member 22 to force the package off the support 9 and into cup 12. In all of the above embodiments, as the wound package slides off the support 9 the cut end of the yarn is drawn into the centre of the package as the package slides over the knife 8 or the hook 17.

The blower 50 has blades curved such that maximum resistance to rotation is offered during descending moment of the vessel 10 and minimum resistance is offered during a raising thereof. The drum 30 is driven through reduction gearing 36, 42, 40 and shaft 45 by an electric motor 70, a controllable clutch 74 being placed between the motor 70 and shaft 45 to free the shaft during descending moment of the vessel 10. The disc brake 60 includes a one way clutch 64 which permits the shaft 45 to turn in the vessel raising direction while the brake is applied, and the brake 60 and clutch 74 are coupled through a lever system 80, 90 such that the clutch 74 is disengaged prior to release of the brake 60. The brake 60 is normally applied by a weight 75 which is apertured to receive one end of the lever 80 fulcrumed at 83, whereby downward movement of the end 82 of lever 80 shifts the weight and releases the brake. A hand wheel 95 is provided to manually rotate the unloaded winch drum once the brake 60 is released, and a hand crank 100 is provided to manually rotate through reduction gearing, the loaded winch drum. To release the brake 60, from the position of the vessel 10, a lever 127 is provided adjacent to vessel 10, and when pulled withdraws a pin 123 from a weight 120, which when released, lowers the lever end 82 to raise the weight 75 to release the brake 60.

A second frame 14 having side members 11 is pivoted to the first frame at 10 and by pivot pins 16 mounts the normally horizontal part of a third member 17. Intermediate pivot pins 15 support levers 20, constituting fifth members pivotally mounting at one end fourth member rods 22 in turn pivoted at 23 to the third member 17. An actuating ram 25 or motor extends between an intermediate pivot pin 24 of the levers 20 and a pivot pin 26 of a cross member 27 of the sub-frame 2. To load a container 3 from the ground, Fig. 2, the ram 25 is extended thus first moving the levers 20 from A to B, Fig. 4, and consequently the member 17 from C to D and then pivoting the frame 14 about its pivots 10 until a hook 18 can engage a lifting bar 19 of thecontainer position E, Fig. 2. Retraction of the ram 25 will now reverse the movements lifting the container and drawing it on to the vehicle with its frame members 36 running on flanged wheels 6 at the rear of the vehicle until arms 37 of a cross member 38 between the side members 11 engage portions 39 of the container base to hold it on the vehicle. If a backstop 28, Fig. 1, is now operated to prevent pivoting of the levers 20 the parts become locked so that extension of the ram 25 will cause the ports to pivot together about the pins 8 to tip the container to position F, Fig. 2, to discharge its contents. Two modifications of the actuating mechanism parts are described providing different means to lock the parts to allow tipping of the container.

Abstract: 1380069 Vibrating screens ORVILLE SIMPSON CO 9 Dec 1971 57355/71 Heading B2H [Also in Division F2]  In a method of sorting particulate material using a screen vibrating at a frequency up to 1600 cycles per minute, the amplitude of the motion is varied over a plurality of cycles from zero to a maximum so that the screen is periodically stationary. This may be achieved by means of a pair of rotating shafts each having an unbalanced weight thereon, one shaft being rotated at a speed which is betweene 1% and 15% greater than that of the other shaft. The speeds may be such that the vibratory force is reduced to zero between 10 and 200 times a minute. In the embodiment shown, the screen box 111 is resiliently supported on a base 112 by rods 128 gripped by split blocks 127 and 129 secured to the box 111 and the base 112 respectively, Fig. 8. The base is supported on the floor by springs 122. The shafts 134 and 133 carrying the unbalanced weights are mounted in bearing blocks 135 rigid with the base 112 and are driven by an electric motor 155 via a belt 156, a pulley 157, a shaft 145, a pulley 144, a timing belt 143 and pulleys 142 and 141. The pulley 142 is larger in diameter than the pulley 141 so that shaft 133 is driven faster than the shaft 134.
