Title: Improvements in hydraulic presses
IPC: B30B9/04
Filed: 1955-09-07
Abstract: 788,412. Fruit presses. FISCHER, K. Sept. 7, 1955, No. 25621/55. Class 14 (2). An hydraulic fruit press comprises a covering hood 3 which surrounds a press basket 39 containing the material to be pressed, which hood, by connection with a carrying casing 1 by means of flanges 40, 41 held by a clamping ring 19, takes up the pressure exerted on the material from below by a perforated pressing disc 42 carried on a pressing piston 6. This piston, together with pressure and suction valves 7, 8, is located in the body 5 of a pressure cylinder into which the pressure connection 12 of the pump is inserted laterally between the valves. Operation of the hand lever 17 moves the pump piston in the cylinder 9 and causes hydraulic liquid contained in the casing to be forced through valves 7, 8 into the space 11 against the piston 6. The pump piston and valves may alternatively be housed in a radial bore made in the base of the carrying casing beneath the pressure cylinder.

Addition to 359,781. [Class 94 (i).] The mechanism for producing the top closure of filled bags, described in the parent Specification, is modified by causing the two side plates for forming the outwardly extending ears to remain in their downward horizontal position until they have been withdrawn from the folds. As shown, the side plates 62, 62a are moved from their vertical position to the horizontal position shown in broken lines in Fig. 2 by the descent of press-members 67, 67a adjustably secured on a vertically reciprocable yoke 36. The members 67, 67a bear on ball members 24, 25 mounted in the ends of levers 65, 65a mounted to turn with the plates on their pivots 63, 63a, and urged towards their upward positions by springs 40, 41. The members are in the form of rails, so arranged that the folders 62, 62a are kept in their lower positions until clear of the folds they have formed, and facilitating the creasing action of the rod 75, which follows their withdrawal. In a modified form, shorter press-members, participating in the horizontal movement of the levers 65, 65a may be used.

Title: Improvements in and relating to noise suppression in radio receivers
IPC: H03G11/00
Filed: 1939-09-20
Abstract: 641,211. Radio receiving systems. MURPHY RADIO, Ltd., and HAWKINS, G. F. Sept. 20, 1939, No. 26268. [Class 40 (v)] In a radio receiver, interference is suppressed by selecting and withdrawing from an A.F. stage a part of the interfering pulse and reinjecting the selected pulses into the audio signal channel with amplitude and phase such that interfering pulses at the point of injection are eliminated. In Fig. 1, an audio amplifier 1 is resistance capacity coupled to an output valve, connected to a lead 2 by means of condenser 3 and resistances 4, 5. A phase reversing and amplitude adjusting valve 8 is also coupled to amplifier valve 1, the time constant of the resistance capacity coupling 7, 6 being made several times the duration of a single interfering impulse. The reversed interfering impulse is injected into the input of the output valve through condenser 12, resistances 13, 14 and output valve grid lead 2. To prevent backward surge to the output valve grid, a diode 15 is connected between chassis and the junction of resistances 13 and 14. In modifications the diode 15 may be placed in series in the input of the phase reversing valve 8 (Fig. 2, not shown) or the valve 8 may be biassed to cut-off to prevent backward surge. In a further modification a small inductance shunted by a resistance may be used in the anode circuit of valve 1 instead of the capacity resistance selecting circuit 6, 7 (Fig. 3, not shown). In another modification instead of feeding forward the selected noise it may be reintroduced into the A.F. channel by a feed-back to an earlier point in the channel (Fig. 4, not shown).

Abstract: 643,983. Vibration detectors; piezo-electric apparatus. PHILIPS LAMPS, Ltd. Sept. 5, 1946, No. 26671. Convention date, Sept. 5, 1945. [Class 40 (iv)] [Also in Group XL(b)] A piezo-electric apparatus particularly for detecting mechanical vibrations comprises two masses which move relative to each other and arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis along which movement takes place, the masses being inter-connected by members which prevent relative rotation of the masses and by crystal plates arranged symmetrically around the axis and with their electrode surfaces parallel to it. A light central mass 1, Fig. 1 and 2, made, for example, of aluminium, is secured to the vibrating body by a bolt 4 to produce longitudinal vibration of the mass and is surrounded by a heavy cylindrical mass 3 supported by four crystal plates 2 cemented at two opposite edges to projections from the masses. Sideways movement and rotation of the outer mass is prevented by corrugated discs 6 connecting the two masses and the assembly is enclosed in a light housing 7. In a more compact arrangement (Figs. 3 and 4, not shown) the crystal plates are arranged tangentially to the central mass which in this case is the heavy free mass, the light surrounding mass being bolted to the vibrating body. Movement in any but the longitudinal direction is prevented by arms secured tangentially to the central mass and to the surrounding mass and longitudinal movement is damped by a rubber cushion provided between the surrounding mass and the lower end of the central mass. In a further embodiment, Fig. 5, three crystals such as 14 are arranged edgewise between a light lower platform 15 bolted to the vibrating body and a heavy upper disc 16. If seignette salt crystals are used the elements in the first two embodiments which are subject to shear stress are cut from the mother crystal normal to the a-axis and with the sides parallel to the band c axes. The elements of the embodiment of Fig. 5 are, however, subjected to compressive and tensile stress and the sides of the element are cut at 45 degrees to the b and c axes.

Abstract: 503,341. Vehicle spring - suspensions. MACBMTH, C. Oct. 6, 1937, No. 27024. [Class 108 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXI] In a road-vehicle suspension in which an auxiliary rubber spring comes into operation on excessive deflection of a link or lever arm controlled by a main spring, the rubber spring a, Fig. 1, is formed with a cam-like contour having its peak near one end situated towards the pivotal axis d of the link or arm c, and diminislies 'in depth away from such axis so that, when loaded, its depth is reduced proportionately along its length. For example, when the arm c moves from position x to position y the various sections of the rubber block are each shortened to 60 per cent of their original depth. In order to prevent undue wear of the cam surface, the rubber block may be covered by a metal shoe coated with a thin layer of rubber to obtain silent operation. The block may be mounted on the chassis b or on the arm c. In the application to a motor cycle, the link j, Fig. 4, connected at one end j<1> to the spindle of the front wheel, is attached at its axis end to a torsion rubber unit to which the fork arms k are also attached as described in Specification 496,219, [Group XXXI].
