Abstract: Composition and methods for providing a phosphate conversion coating on a metal surface, particularly a copper surface, characterized in that the phosphating composition includes at least one composition-soluble compound containing vanadium, niobium, tungsten or tantalum. The phosphate conversion coatings so produced are thicker, more durable and more uniform than those produced by known phosphating compositions. The compositions and processes are especially useful for providing a passivating/uniformizing coating layer on copper surfaces to which organic resin is thereafter deposited to serve as a resist in printed circuit fabrication sequences, particularly when the organic resin is an electrophoretically deposited organic resin. Also described is the microetching of copper surfaces with a phosphoric acid/peroxide microetchant preparatory to deposit thereon (or after a further provision of a phosphate conversion coating) of a photoresist which is then imagewise exposed and developed to provide a patterned resist.

Title: Improvements in information storage arrangements employing magnetic drums
IPC: G11B5/55
Filed: 1957-01-25
Abstract: 827,165. Electric digital-data-storage apparatus. DIRKS, G. Jan. 25, 1957, No. 1106/58. Divided out of 827,163. Class 106 (1). Information storage apparatus comprises a rotatable magnetic drum with a plurality of tracks, at least one movable transducing head associated with the drum, and electromagnetically-controlled selecting means for moving the head into effective relationship with a selected track. As described, two heads 4 and 5, Fig. 3, each adapted to co-operate with a separate drum, are mounted on a plate 6 which is supported by a sleeve 7 on a shaft 8 and can be rocked slightly to one side or the other so as to bring either head into effective relationship with its associated drum. Movement of the plate 6 is controlled by solenoids 21 and 22 one of which, when energized, displaces an armature 20 which is resiliently coupled to the plate by spring members 23, 24 engaging slots 25 in the plate 6. One of two sets of contacts 29, 30 is closed during such a displacement, by a projection 28 to complete the circuit to the selected head, or to indicate the movement in a checking circuit. Springs 26 return the armature to the central position. The assembly shown in Fig. 3 is moved along the shaft 8 to select different tracks on the two drums either by an eccentric (Fig. 2, not shown) connected by a link to the shaft 8 and driven from a transverse shaft, or by a rack-and-pinion arrangement (Fig. 6, not shown). The amount of such movement is determined by a commutator 31, Fig. 5, co-operating with a series of brushes 34 each associated with a track position. To select a track, one of a series of switches 42a is closed, whereby unless its associated brush is already on an insulating segment 32, a circuit is completed for a solenoid 41 which removes a stop 39 from a ratchet-wheel 13 integral with the commutator 31. This allows a constantlyrotating shaft 35, working through a friction clutch 36, 37 to rotate the ratchet-wheel-commutator assembly until the insulating segment 32 breaks the circuit of the solenoid 41. The stop 39 then arrests the ratchet-wheel 13 and the heads 4 and 5 are held opposite the selected track. Instead of rocking the heads into contact with the drum surface a roller 27 may be mounted adjacent each head to maintain a small air gap. A plurality of assemblies such as shown in Fig. 3, may be mounted on the shaft 8.

Title: Improvements in adjusting devices for brake shoes of expander brakes
IPC: F16D65/42
Filed: 1943-01-22
Abstract: 565,088. Adjusting brakes. JENKINS, S., and CARDIFF JUNCTION DRY DOCK & ENGINEERING CO., Ltd. Jan. 22, 1943, No. 1140. [Class 103 (i)] In an adjusting device for the shoes of an expander brake comprising a cone cam or wedging member between the ends of the shoes re mote from the expander, an operating shank or shaft for the cone &c. extends with play through a device which permits rotation of the shank or shaft only in the direction to take up the wear of the shoes the play ensuring the necessary normal clearance between the shoes and the drum. According to Figs. 1, 2, the adjusting device comprises an axially movable cone 10 engaging the inner ends of a pair of plungers 5 slidable in a housing 9 fixed to the back plate of the brake, the outer forked ends 8 of the plungers receiving those ends of the shoes that are remote from the ends operated by the usual expanding device. A shank 14, the end 23 of which fits into the cone, has a worm engagement 12 with the housing and extends through a collar 16 rotatable in one direction only within a housing 15 fixed to the back plate 1. Rotation of the collar in the other direction is prevented by the wedging action of rollers 18 between the inclined walls 17 of recesses in the collar and the inner wall of the housing 15. The shank 14 can thus be turned in the direction necessary to advance the cone to take up wear of the brake shoes, play between the shank and the collar 16 ensuring that a minimum clearance between the shoes and the drum is maintained. Simultaneous adjustment of the four brakes of a motor car may be effected by turning a transverse shaft provided with arms connected by cables to the shanks 14 of the several brakes. In this case a single uni-directional device similar to the device 15, 16 and through which the transverse shaft extends, is provided. A cam may be substituted for the cone.

Title: Improvements in or relating to relays and to synchronised clocks or other apparatus actuated thereby
IPC: G04R20/00
Filed: 1921-01-10
Abstract: 157,438. Soc. Anon des Ateliers BrilliÚ FrÞres. Sept. 26, 1919, [Convention date]. Electric clocks; synchronizing hands.-A relay for synchronizing clocks by means of wireless signals is arranged so as to act only upon the cessation of a prolonged current-impulse. As shown in Fig. 2, the plunger a of the relay c is drawn upwards by the signalling-current until a projection a<1> has passed above the bevelled end of a pivoted spring-balanced lever c. This upward movement does not close the contact d, Figs. 1 and 2; but once the part a<1> is above the lever c, the cessation of the signalling-current causes the plunger to fall under gravity, and on this downward stroke the lever c is rocked so as to close the contact d, and thereby to bring the synchronizing mechanism into operation. The upward movement of the plunger a may be opposed or damped by any suitable means. As shown in Fig. 2, a relay C is used in conjunction with a receiver A, two intermediate relays B and 3, and the train-wheel axle 1 of the clock to be re-set. The re-setting is accomplished by the action of a finger 2 upon a heart-shaped cam 1<1> frictionally mounted on the axle 1.
