Title: Improvements in or relating to methods of applying adhesives to articles
Inventor: MUMFORD IVOR
IPC: B05C1/14
Filed: 1964-10-29
Abstract: 1,134,542. Laminated tile. JAMES HALSTEAD Ltd. 27 Jan., 1966 [29 Oct., 1964 (2)], Nos. 44145/64 and 44146/64. Heading B5N. [Also in Division B2] A laminate comprises a release paper applied to the adhesive surface of a tile, e.g. a polyvinyl chloride tile, having an adhesive backing so that it may be readily stuck to a surface, made by applying a layer of adhesive on a supporting surface from which the adhesive can be removed after it has been dried, drying the adhesive whilst it is supported and applying the tile to the adhesive either before or after the dried adhesive has been removed from the support surface, the bond between the tile and adhesive being greater than the bond between the support surface and the adhesive. The adhesive may be dried by a heating step. The support surface may be an endless band which moves through a heating zone to dry the adhesive layer carried thereby and (1) the tile is applied to the dried adhesive prior to removal of the adhesive and tile from the band or (2) the dried adhesive is removed by applying a web of release paper thereto and then removing the composite web of release paper and adhesive from the endless band and subsequently applying the tile to the adhesive such that the bond between the tile and adhesive is greater than the bond between the adhesive and release paper. The sandwich of tile, adhesive and band may be passed through nip rollers. The release paper includes any material to which the dried adhesive has a bond lower than its bond to the article or tile. After removal of the dried adhesive from the support surface, the release paper may be applied to the adhesive backing on the adhesive backed tile, and another adhesive backed tile may be applied to the other side of the release paper. The support surface may have a release characteristic to enable the adhesive to be removed readily therefrom after the adhesive has been dried. The adhesive may be applied, e.g. by curtain coating means, roller coater, or spray, either in a single layer or in two or more coatings to form the final layer; in the latter case each coating is dried before application of the next coating; the same quantity of adhesive may be applied at each coating operation and each coating is subjected to drying for the same period; or the quantity of adhesive may be smaller in succeeding layers with each succeeding drying time being correspondingly reduced. The adhesive may be applied to the belt in spaced bands, each band corresponding to the width of a tile or marginally less than the width of a tile. The adhesive is preferably a water based emulsion or a solution in an organic solvent of a permanent tack adhesive such as a blend of acrylic copolymers, or butadieneacrylonitrile. The adhesive coatings may be of different adhesives. A blocking layer as described in Specification 864,882 may be used between a plasticized P.V.C. tile and the adhesive. .

Abstract: 1,123,408. Hose end-fitting assemblies; hoses. AEROQUIP A.G. 19 Oct., 1965 [23 Feb., 1965], No. 44303/65. Headings F2G and F2P. A hose, having an inner tube 36 of rubber or other resilient material and an outer helicallywound or braided sheath 42 of metal natural or synthetic filaments 44, Figs. 1 and 2 (not shown), arranged substantially at a helix angle of 54 degrees 44 minutes, at which angle internal fluid pressure forces within the hose tending to increase the hose diameter are balanced by correspondingly induced filament forces tending to elongate the hose and reduce its diameter, is provided with an end-fitting consisting of a tubular nipple inserted within the inner tube to expand the inner tube and sheath so that the filaments assume an angle in excess of 54 degrees 44 minutes, and a socket 12 clamping the bared end 48 of the sheath to the nipple, a clearance 52 existing between the end of the inner tube and the portion 22 of the nipple engaged by the sheath. The nipple portion A is sealed to the hose by virtue of the elasticity of the latter and by the fact that fluid pressure acting within the hose during use results in the expanded sheath portion having a helix angle in excess of 54 degrees 44 minutes tending to axially elongate and radially contract. The clearance 52 existing between the inner tube end and the enlarged sheath-clamping portion 22 of the nipple permits slight axial movement of the hose end to effect sealing. The socket is preferably crimped on to the nipple. The hose is provided with an outer protective layer of rubber or other resilient material. In a modification, Figs. 5-7 (not shown), the nipple is formed from metal tubing and has a constant wall thickness, the bared end of the sheath clamped between the nipple and socket being nestled in annular grooves formed therein during crimping.

Title: Improvements in or relating to radioactive-source transfer mechanisms
Inventor: BAILEY PETER JOHN
IPC: G21F7/005
Filed: 1964-11-09
Abstract: 1,120,182. Manipulating radio-active sources. NUCLEAR CHEMICAL PLANT Ltd. 1 Nov., 1965 [9 Nov., 1964], No. 45662/64. Heading H5R. In an irradiation chamber, wherein the radiation source may comprise a single unit or several units which is, or are individually, movable from an irradiation position to a storage position in the chamber, there is placed intermediate these positions a unit source manipulating means comprising a transfer member which may be selectively aligned with the path or any one of the paths taken by said single unit or any one of the units between the two positions so as to receive from or supply to the selected path a source unit, said transfer member being movable to a location at which, by pivoting about an axis, the transfer member may be aligned with a second path from which it may receive or to which it may supply a radio-active source unit, said second path serving as the means by which fresh radioactive sources are supplied to and used sources withdrawn from the chamber. Preferably the path between the store and the irradiating position is vertical and the second path is horizontal. In Fig. 3, tubes 10 and 11 form passageways for sources between the irradiation zone and store respectively. The continuity of passage is broken by a turn-table formed of plates 13 and 14, tubes 15, and tube 21. In normal use, the tubes 15 are aligned so that uninterrupted travel is possible between 10 and 11. To remove a particular source unit, it is moved so as to occupy a position in a particular tube 10 above the turn-table. The turn-table is rotated until tube 21 is aligned beneath the particular tube and the source is lowered into it. Tube 21 is preferably a container having one closed end, and by rotating the turn-table, the source is transported to a position adjacent guide rails 24. The tube 21 has a pivot at its lower end, so that its upper end may be lowered using rails 24 until tube 21 occupies a horizontal position. The source may then be withdrawn from tube 21 by suitable means, e.g. a bayonet or button fitting on the end of the source container, through tube 28 and into shielded store 29. A reversal of the above process enables a fresh source to be introduced into the chamber. The source (Fig. 2A) comprises an open-ended container 1 containing two source rods 2, said container having a ring 3 which prevents the sources falling out, and a bayonet socket 4 which cooperates with a male bayonet fitting attached to the end of a rod used when the containers are manipulated through tubes 10, 11, 15, 21 and 28. The turn-table is fitted with an interlock to prevent movement of the source containers except when tubes 15 and transfer member 21 are suitably positioned.
Patent GB-458440-A (GB)
Abstract: 458,440. Cash registers. NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO., Ohio, U.S.A. June 21, 1935, No. 17824. Convention date, June 21, 1934. [Class 106 (i)] In a cash register or similar accounting- machine having a manually operable lever 2 adjustable to a plurality of positions to condition the machine for adding, total-taking and subtotal-taking operations, and individual locks 9, 10 associated with the two latter positions, movement of the lever out of " Add " position is normally prevented by a single pawl 3 flexibly mounted on the lever, said pawl being so shaped as to permit return movement of the lever to "Add" position from either position of adjustment away from " Add even when the lock controlling that position is in locking condition. The pawl is provided with two lugs 3a situated one on either side of the pivot 1 and is retained in the position shown by a spring 4. The outer surfaces 12 of the lugs are parallel and, in the " Add " position of the lever, co-operate with lock pins 5 to prevent movement of the lever. Upon the insertion of a key 11 in one of the locks, the corresponding pin is shifted inwardly to release the lever for movement towards the selected lock. If the kev is removed from the lock while the lever is out of " Add " position, the pin 5 returns to its normal outer position but does not prevent return movement of the lever owing to the shape of the inner surfaces of the lugs 3a which enables the pawl to wipe past the obstructing pin. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 comprises also totalizer-engaging mechanism similar to that disclosed in Specification 452,414. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Abstract: 1501620 Cryogenic comminution HENRY BALFOUR & CO Ltd 22 Oct 1975 [23 Oct 1974] 45934/74 Heading B2A Cryogenic comminution apparatus comprises a mill 2 fed by a right-angled V pair of tubes 3, 4 which include feed screws and serve as a cryogenic bath with controlled dwell time, either by varying speed or distance through the bath which is adjusted by varying the liquid level in the V-tubes. Material is initially broken up in a screw prebreaker 9 and delivered to a hopper 5 which feeds the tube 3. Cryogenic liquid {nitrogen) is maintained by a valve 20 and level controllers 21, 22. The tubes 3, 4 and mill 2 are mounted on insulating material. Ground material is conveyed via a conduit 25 to a receiver (not shown). Oversize is recycled via a conduit 27. Fines are separated at a separator 29. The temperature in the mill 2 is sensed by a sensor 32. Residence time in the bath 16 is adjusted by varying the speed of the conveyors 13, 14 in the tubes 3, 4. Pressure across the tubes 3, 4 is balanced by a duct 31, 31A. Tramp material e.g. wire reinforcement in tyres can be separated out if desired by means not shown. The level controllers 21, 22 control the static level prior to introduction of material and controller 22 the dynamic level when material is in transit. Each controller comprises a vertical capilliary tube 21B, Fig. 2, housed in a vertical limb 21A. The tube 21B is filled with a suitable gas via an inlet 37. Each tube has a bellows 21C controlling a switch 21D in an air or electrical line, and sensitive to pressure charges in the capillary tube. Thus when the level rises the vapour in the tube condenses resulting in a pressure drop so that the bellows 21C contact. The response time is reduced by passing relatively hot dry air or the like over the tube 21B.
