Patent GB-983752-A (GB)
Title: Method for the preparation of cheese
IPC: A01J25/00
Filed: 1961-03-23
Abstract: Fresh cheese curd and/or mild unripened cheese containing cooking salt and less than 7% (reckoned as anhydrous salt) of processing salt reckoned on the total weight of mixture, is melted at above 70 DEG C., is cooled to a temperature low enough not to destroy the activity of the ripening culture to be added, and is then mixed with a ripening culture and allowed to ripen.  The curd or cheese is ripened at the temperature of greatest activity of the ripening culture, usually below 50 DEG C., to a r H of between 5.0 and 4.2, and the ripened product is further cooled to a temperature of between 4 DEG C. and 8 DEG C., to kill or greatly inhibit the ripening culture and give a stable product.  The curd or cheese is salted with cooking salt and processing salts during or after its formation but before heating and the mixture, including further optional ingredients, is homogenised before or after addition of the ripening culture.  As processing salts there may be employed the soluble ortho-phosphates, pyrophosphates, condensed phosphates and citrates of inorganic or organic cations such as alkali metal, ammonium, urea or glucosamine in specified proportions.  The curd or cheese is produced by curdling soured milk (or other casein-containing product capable of curdling) having an SH value between 7 and 30; the curds are drained and washed to decrease their lactose content.  The milk may be soured by addition of buttermilk, acidifying cultures (Thermobacterium yoghourt, Thermobacterium bulgaricum or Thermobacterium helveticum), organic acids such as lactic, citric or tartaric acid, or rennet.  An excessively sour milk is first treated with a citrate, phosphate, lactate or tartrate buffer.  The curd or cheese may contain a minor proportion of the following: processed cheese, a caesin-containing fat emulsion which has a fat content of more than 30% (e.g. derived from completely or partially homogenised cream, butter, margarine, fat, oil (specified), milk or milk powder) in a proportion providing 40-70% fat in the final cheese, proteinaceous material, rennet, and flavouring and swelling or binding agents such as whey, spices, honey, pineapple, candied orange or lemon peel, fruit kernel meal, raspberry jam, blackberry jelly, gelatine, agar-agar, alginates and pectins.  The melted and cooled mixture containing the ripening culture is packed into air-tight packaging (polyethylene bags, lined aluminium foil, plastic pots and sachets) to ripen in portions; the portions may have been coated with flavouring or pectin-containing substances such as fruit- and alginate-based jellies, and apricot and strawberry jams to inhibit surface infections such as slime formation.  Much specific detail is contained in the many examples. Specification 862,067 is referred to.

[Also in Division F2] A mounting for a spinning spindle comprises a fixed housing rigidly supporting a footstep bearing and releasably carrying a resilient damping-member of which a part projects upwardly from the bolster and carries an upper bearing for the spindle. In Fig. 1, the resilient member 7 is screwed on to a threaded upward extension of reduced outer diameter of the housing 3. The upper bearing is enclosed in a sheet metal bushing 12 inserted as a unit on the resilient member and closed by packing against the entry of extraneous matter, a flange 7<SP>1</SP> on the member projecting inwardly between the upper end of the bolster and the unit. A tubular member 8 with a footstep is inserted in the bolster. In other forms, the resilient member may be screwed into a socket in the housing (Fig. 4 not shown) or fitted into a recess in the housing (Fig. 5 not shown). Various methods are described for varying the damping effect of the sleeve. In Fig. 2 (not shown) the resilient member may have portions varying in degrees of resilience; a sleeve may depend from the roller-bushing which terminates above the level of the housing, the sleeve being disposed on the inner surface of the member (Figs. 4, 5 not shown) or being received within the member (Fig. 6 not shown); in Fig. 3 not shown, sleeves are fitted on the outside of the member, provision being made for axially adjusting the positions of the sleeves of individual or groups of spindles (Fig. 7 and 8 not shown).

[Class 69 (ii)] [Also in Group XXVIII] To ensure correct action without cavitation of a liquid supply system for operating hydraulic motors on aircraft an injector device is arranged between the reservoir 11 of the fluid supply system and the pump 3 which is preferably of the kind described in Specifications 534,847, 524,384, 524,199, [all in Group XXVIII]. As applied to a power system such as described in Specification 531,465 in which jacks 17 are operated from the pump 3 under the control of a valve 16, the outlet pipe 15 of the pump 3 is connected to the injector nozzle 21, which draws fluid from a pipe 10 connected to the reservoir 11 and delivers it to the inlet 4 of the pump 3.

An oscillator comprises the first two grids and cathode of a tube and from across an anode output resistor 20 a voltage is fed back through a capacitor 21 to one side of the tuned circuit 2, 22 to produce a phase quadrature component of feedback to the first grid of magnitude determined by a voltage UR applied to another grid, controlling the oscillator frequency. The circuit further ensures that increase of feedback increases the damping of the oscillator and therefore the control sensitivity. The input UR may be derived from a phase discriminator fed with incoming sync and television receiver line flyback pulses so that the frequency and phase of the line scan sawtooth waves produced by a triode 9 from the oscillations may be stabilized.

Title: Method and apparatus for the production of rubber boots
Inventor: JEUNE FRANCOIS LE
IPC: B29D35/00
Filed: 1955-04-18
Abstract: 784,168. Molding rubber footwear. SOC. DES CAOUTCHOUCS DE LIANCOURT. April 18, 1955, No. 11110/55. Class 87(2). A multiple core and outer mould sections are used in the production of rubber boots by a method in which the core parts are arranged so as to reduce its thickness, a lining is placed over the core, the parts of the core are slid together to stretch the lining, the stretched lining is coated with a sheet of unvulcanized rubber, the lined core is turned to a vertical position and the mould sections are applied against the core. A three-part core, Fig. 2, comprises a central part 30 with inclined faces 28, 29 on which outer parts 26, 27 slide. The parts 26, 27 between them approximate to the shape intended for the leg and upper portions of the boot. In the Fig. 2 position the core is contracted in width and a pre-formed sock of suitable, e.g. textile, material is pulled over the core. The core and mould parts are of metal and are pre-heated. Unvulcanized rubber is spread on the material covering the core, the heat of which causes it to cling to the sock and conform to the shape of the core. The core parts 26, 27 are then pushed along the inclines 28, 29 until they meet the face 38 of the core, which is pivotally mounted at 25. Ball or roller bearings may assist the sliding. The core is then swung to a vertical position and is enclosed between the two halves of the mould, one of which is shown in Fig. 1. There may be linkage whereby this swinging movement causes the sliding of the parts 26, 27 on the central core part 30. A third mould part 22, shaped to mould the sole of the boot, enters the top of the mould. The core is centred by the base 38 being a close fit in the space formed between the cavities 13 of the mould halves. The assembly is placed in a hydraulic or other press, one platen of which is shown at 15 (16 indicates heating elements) and the part 22 being operable by any suitable pressure means, and the rubber is vulcanized under heat and pressure. The composite construction of the mould and core makes removal of the moulded boot very easy. The interposition of springs between the core parts 26, 27 and the base 38 enables the core to be put in the mould not quite laterally expanded, and force is then applied to the base to produce internal mould pressure. Instead of the sole being moulded by a part 22 to which pressure is separately applied, a member 34 with inclined faces 36, 37 engaging inclines 32, 33 in the mould parts A, B, Fig. 4, may be used. Fig. 4 also shows a rib 39 on the core which engages with a groove 40 in the mould halves to ensure accurate positioning.
