Patent FR-2094081-A1 (FR)
IPC: D04H18/02
Filed: 1971-06-07
Abstract: 1342676 Needled fabrics; patterning felt by needling O ANGLEITNER 4 June 1971 [5 June 1970] 19040/71 Headings D1R and D1S A pattern is produced on a web by passing it through a needling machine having needles which are reciprocated so as to penetrate into and be withdrawn from the web. The. web is supported upon a table which can be moved vertically to remove the web from contact with the needles board, the movement of the table and the movement of the means for horizontal transport of the web being controlled independently. If the web is stationary whilst the needles are reciprocated, each needle produces one point in the pattern. If the web is moved slowly whilst the needles are reciprocated each point produces a line. Two webs of different colours may be superposed before needling. After each pattern has been produced the web is lowered then moved horizontally a distance equal to the pattern width. The process may be performed automatically by driving the web transport rolls by means of a drive chain bearing stop bosses separated by the pattern length. As each boss touches a microswitch the drive motor is stopped and the web supporting surface raised into the needling position. If a line pattern is required the drive chain is moved very slowly whilst the drive motor is stopped by the movement of two sprockets over which the drive chain passes. Alternatively the stepwise advance of the web is controlled by a photoelectric device.

Title: Ski boot clamp for ski - deformable pad forces sole onto ski after being deformed
IPC: A63C9/084
Filed: 1973-07-02
Abstract: The self adjusting and releasing boot clamp is a ski-integral element (4) of inverted L cross section, shaped in plan to follow boot sole edge contours, and grip the edge by bearing on the edge through an interposing pad (8) of elastically deformable material. The clamps locate on the ski (9) to confine boot toe and heel sole ends (7) and the utilization of the elastic pad (8) permits usage with any sole depth since it simply deforms to confine and grip. Necessity of adjustment and the possibility of incorrect adjustment is obviated; and the clamp is described as being utilized with impact release mechanisms (1, 5, 6 etc).

Title: Non-reversible pressure sensitive switch - has pressure rupturing membrane permitting gas to act on piston closing three microswitches
Inventor: CHOREL JACQUES
IPC: H01H35/24
Filed: 1973-12-12
Abstract: A pressure switch is used to detect an increase in gas pressure and to give a signal when this gas pressure has reached a set level. The signal is maintained even when the pressure is reduced to zero. The pressure switch has a stainless steel case (1). It also has a piston (3) and a chamber (1e) with three microswitches (4,4',4"). The piston (3) has an extension (3a) which actuates a strip (5) which can make contact with all three microswitches (4,4',4") simultaneously. A calibrated membrane (10) separates the gas from a chamber (1b) above the piston (3). On rupture of the membrane (10) due to an excess pressure, the piston (3) is displaced and actuates the microswitches (4,4',4"). When the pressure is decreased, the piston (3) does not return to its initial position and the microswitches (4,4',4") remain closed.

Title: Spring loaded bearings for rotary extrusion die - providing good alignment and freedom from leaks
IPC: B29C48/06
Filed: 1974-02-06
Abstract: A rotary die carrier is mounted on to an extruder by providing the extruder head with a crosshead adaptor which supports a relatively long tubular bearing for aligning the rotary collar. The adaptor supports a rigid stationary cylindrical casing which carries an annular thrust bearing on the stationary casing. The collar is located against the thrust bearings by pressure from springs between a pair of thrust plates mounted on the adaptor. The rotary collar is lined with a sleeve bearing which runs both on the axial guide bearing and the floating thrust plate. Method is used for supporting rotary die heads on e.g. film blowing or cable sheathing extruders etc. and is suitable for continuous or reversible rotation motions. The large surface interfaces between the stationary and moving parts are effective on alignment, slow to wear, and involve no discontinuities for potential leaks. The spring pressure is readily adjusted by changing the number or rating of the springs between the thrust plates.

Title: Pencil-box with sharpner - has removable support giving access to shavings collection chamber
IPC: A45C11/34
Filed: 1974-07-24
Abstract: The box is rectangular and has a pivoting lid. Inside the box, there are two compartments, one, which contains the pencils and the other which contains the pencil sharpener. The opening of the sharpener is in one face of the box so that the pencils can be inserted from the outside of the box. The pencils rest on a removable support so that a second compartment is formed between the support and the base of the box. This compartment communicates with that containing the sharpener and collects the shavings. The box may be cylindrical or polygonal, the pencil sharpener being centrally located in one end.
Patent FR-2243398-A1 (FR)
Title: Off peak electric storage cell - has a spiral water coil immersed in the salt vessel with water flow from the top downwards
IPC: F24H7/02
Filed: 1974-09-05
Abstract: The storage cell is filled with a fusible salt. The water heating coil spirals from an inlet downwards in the cell towards the floor. A straight pipe length rises from the bottom at the centre of the coil to an outlet at the top. The electric heating elements are fitted close to the outside of the cell and reach nearly to the cell bottom. The water flow from top to bottom ensures that the salt solidifies from the top downwards and does not cause damage to the cell due to the volume changes between solid and liquid states. The layout prevents solidifying of salt near the bottom.

Title: Wave driven power wheel anchored on water course bed - has radial horiz. blades feathering on top of mast
IPC: F03B17/06
Filed: 1974-11-04

Title: Wind driven electricity generating plant - has rotor in venturi powering compressor supplying air for use in turbine
IPC: F03D1/04
Filed: 1974-11-29
Abstract: Mechanical power is generated by a number of rotors equipped with blades and mounted in the neck of a venturi which is built in a reinforced concrete structure on the crest of a suitable hill. A series of shutters, which can rotate in pockets in the sides of the inlet side of the venturi, control the velocity of the wind blowing through the venturi. The mechanical power from the rotor is transmitted to a compressor which compresses air to be stored in pipes buried in the ground. The compressed air is used to drive an air turbine which generates electricity. The storage of energy by compressed air permits the continuous generation of electricity.

Title: Clearing syrups, e.g. molasses, and recovering sugar - by separate treatment with anionic ion-exchanger and cationic ion-exchanger
IPC: C13B20/14
Filed: 1975-02-18
Abstract: Molasses and other sugar-contg. syrups are cleared by (a) treatment with ion-exchanger which separates mineral constituents, and (b) a separate treatment with an ion-exchanger which separates organic constituents. Sugar is recovered in high purity. The resins are easily regenerated with agents already available in the sugar factory. The molasses is pref. dil. with water; beet molasses is dil. 1:1 by vol. A (pref. weak) anionic resin in bicarbonate formis pref. The mineral salts are converted to the bicarbonate, and the mixt. may then be passed through a cationic resin in the H form, when the HCO3- ion is exchanged with H, and CO2 is evolved. This stage may be followed by chemical clearing with a pptng. agent, e.g. CaO, which removes remaining carbonates and a part of the organic components; or the CO2 may be blown off. A strong acid cationic resin in the H form is used.
