Title: Advertising vehicles for sale
Inventor: DHAWAN PHILIP
IPC: G09F21/04
Filed: 2009-09-24
Abstract: A kit which facilitates the selling of a vehicle comprises indicator devices and means enabling the user to create and update a vehicle data record accessible by others. The indicator devices are applied to various locations on or in the vehicle to be sold and may comprise: adhesive backed stickers and placards provided with a hooking arm. Each indicator device preferably comprises 3 sections, a first section containing the text "FOR SALE" and second and third sections providing instructions on how to obtain information in the vehicle data record by text message and online respectively. When a vehicle seller obtains a kit, they place indicator devices on and/or in the vehicle and connect to a central server. Once connected, the seller can create a vehicle data record on the server. The vehicle data record preferably includes the vehicle registration number so that the record can be uniquely identified. Once the record has been created, potential buyers can view the record by connecting to the server using the instructions shown on the indicators.

Title: A sealing arrangement for the passage of a cable, or pipe through the panel of a vehicle cab e.g. a tractor.
Inventor: BARZEN ALEXANDER
IPC: F16L5/10
Filed: 2009-12-11
Abstract: A sealing arrangement comprises an insert 3 and a complementary cut out 2 in an edge of a support rail 1 mountable to a panel of the cab or the panel itself, the insert having a hole 4 through which the cable can pass and a slit 10 joining the hole to an edge of the insert allowing the cable to be inserted into the hole. A first "U" shaped securing means 7 retains the insert in the cut out and a closure means 9a retained to the insert by link 9b. Alternatively the insert (Figs 4,5) may comprise a sphere with a partially extending split section 19, arranged externally of the cable receiving hole 20 which increases in radial dimension along a circumferential path. The unsplit section of the sphere excludes the hole and may be positioned to form a closure when no cable is present (fig 5a), rotation of the sphere from this position providing an adjustable though path with respect to cable dimensions (fig 5c). Securing means 16 may be a separate element or may the edge of a cab panel fitted above the insert e.g, a window. A drain 19b is provided in the panel 12.

April 7,1932, No. 10031. Convention date, April 7,1931. [Class 38 (iii).] Following movement of control member.-A motor 1 adjusts a condenser 9 of a radio receiver according to the position of a remote controller 51, which is in the form of a potentiometer and determines the potential of the cathode of a thyratron 17 and the grid of a thyratron 19. A similar potentiometer 41, adjusted with the condenser 9, determines the potential of the grid. of the thyratron 17 and the cathode of the thyratron 19. If the potentiometers are not in similar positions, one of the thyratrons conducts and supplies the armature of the motor with alternating current through one or other of a pair of reversely connected transformers 38, 40. The field 11 of the motor is constantly supplied from the same source MS which supplies the anode and cathode feed transformer 31. In a modification the ends of the potentiometers are connected to the alternating current supply and the movable contacts thereof are connected respectively to the cathode and grid of a control valve. The output of this valve supplies pulsations to the grid of a pair of thyratrons and according to the phase of these pulsations in relation to the anode potentials one or other thyratron conducts and supplies one phase winding of an induction motor, the other phase being constantly supplied from the source MS through a phase-shifting condenser.

The ring is of elastomeric material, e.g. natural or synthetic rubber and is arranged to have a natural frequency of vibration lower than that of any disturbing force, e.g. the A.C. mains. The radial tension in the web 35 may be produced by gripping the inner and outer rims between suitable clamping rings, or the rims may have grooves engaged by inner and outer rigid rings. But in the form shown, the stress is produced by moulding the rubber round the metal rings 33, 34 and allowing it to shrink on curing. The inner rim is clamped in an annular channelled seat (not shown) around the motor-fan unit, while the outer rim is secured by screws (not shown) passing through bosses 36 to a mounting ring 49 projecting inwardly from the vacuum-cleaner body. Rubber ribs 40, 41 provide a cushion between the ring 49 and the outer rim.
