Abstract: 964,230. Percussive tools. ATLAS COPCO A.B. April 29, 1963, No. 16778/63. Heading B4C. A rock drilling device for mine shafts comprises a ring-shaped beam 15 provided with jacks 28, 29 for clamping it to the walls of the shaft and with trackways 19 on which a plurality of carriages are movably mounted, each carriage supporting a rock-drill mechanism 61, 65 connected to an arm 49 which is pivotally mounted on the carriage. The beam is formed from three V-shaped sections bolted together and provided with bosses 21 into which sleeves 26 for supporting the jacks 28, 29 are pivotally mounted, each jack being actuated by a screw 31 rotated via a sprocket and chain 33. The carriages are provided with rollers 36 for engagement with the trackway 19 and with a pivot 46 on which the arm 49 is rotatably mounted. The rock drill 65 is carried by a pusher leg 61 attached to a member 50 adjustably mounted in the arm, a pivot bush 48 on the arm being formed with teeth 53 for locking engagement with corresponding teeth 54 on the carriage. In operation, the beam is lowered to the desired height and the jack adjusted into contact with the walls of the shaft. The drills are then positioned and compressed air fed to the pusher legs and the drills via pipes 61, 62, 63, 64, the extension of the pusher leg then causing the arm 49 to raise and thereby bring the teeth 53, 54 into locking engagement. The carriage is also forced into firm contact with beam.

Abstract: Cyanine dyes are described containing as a substituent of a heterocyclic nitrogen atom an a -sulpho-alkenyl radical or a salt thereof.  The dyes may be of the methine-cyanine, merocyanine or trinuclear cyanine series such as neocyanines or rhodacyanines but preferably have one of the formul/sA <FORM:1077611/C4-C5/1> or <FORM:1077611/C4-C5/2> wherein R1 is hydrogen or alkyl, R2 is an olefinically unsaturated alkylene group, R3 is alkyl or the group -R2-SO3M, n is an integer of 1 to 5, A or A1 represent the atoms completing a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring which may be part of a fused ring system, A11 represents the atoms completing a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring containing -N(R3)- as a ring member and M is a cation.  Examples of methine cyanines, trimethine cyanines and merocyanines of the above formul/sA containing benzothiazole, benzoselenazole and benzoxazole nuclei which may be substituted by methyl, phenyl or tolyl groups, thiadiazole, quinoline, rhodanine and thiohydantoin nuclei are given, containing o -sulphopropenyl and o -sulpho2:3-dimethyl-2-butenyl substituents on nuclear nitrogen atoms. The dyes are made by reacting an alkene sultone such as propene-sultone or 2:3-dimethyl-2-butene-1:4-sultone or an o -sulphoalkenyl halide with a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic intermediate which is then condensed to form a cyanine dye.  The dyes sensitize photographic silver halide emulsions.ALSO:Heterocyclic compounds containing a cyclic quaternary nitrogen atom carrying an o -sulphopropenyl group or a 4-sulpho-2:3-dimethyl - 2 - butenyl group are made by reacting 2:3 - dimethyl - 2 - butene - 1:4-sultone with 2:5-dimethylbenzthiazole or by reacting propenesultone with 2-methyl-, 2:5-dimethyl- or 2:5:6 - trimethylbenzthiazole, 2 - methyl - naphtho - [1,2 - d] - thiazole, 2:5-dimethylbenzselenazole, 2 - methyl - 5 - phenylbenzoxazole, 2 - methylmercaptobenzthiazole or 2:5 - bis(methylmercapto) - 1:3:4 - thiadiazole. The compound of the formula <FORM:1077611/C2/1> is made by heating 2-methyl-3-(3-sulphopropenyl)-benzoxazolium betaine with diphenylformamidine.

Abstract: 971,769. Bakery apparatus. AMF-DEN BOER N.V. May 2, 1962 [May 4, 1961], No. 16921/62. Heading A2A. In a device for automatically transferring rusk cups from a first bake plate to an inverted position on a second bake plate, a roller conveyer 19 feeds a bake plate 20 carrying rusk cups 21 on to a roller-carrying frame 12 in which position it underlies a second bake plate 22 pressed against stop members 14 by a further roller carrying frame 11. The whole sandwich assembly is  then rotated through 180 degrees effecting transference of the rusk cups on to bake plate 22 which is then pushed off frame 11 (now the lowermost frame) on to a roller conveyer 23 leading to an oven. A second device can operate after baking to bring the cups back to an open-side up position. The roller-frames 11, 12 are mounted on shields 8, 9 urged away from each other by springs 10. Rollers 15, 16 on the shields are guided in a track 17 which is depressed at 18 to allow slight separation of the frames to permit loading and unloading.

Abstract: 1,172,247. Plate heat exchangers. A.P.V. CO. Ltd. 3 April, 1967 [20 April, 1966], No. 17290/66. Heading F4S. A plate-type heat exchanger comprises a pack of substantially flat plates spaced apart by peripheral gaskets defining flow spaces between the plates, and a reinforcing mesh 7 between adjacent plates to provide interplate support within the flow spaces and to induce turbulence in the fluid flowing in the flow spaces. The flow characteristics between adjacent plates may be varied through the plate pack, e.g. by changing the wire size to vary the plate interspacing or by changing the size of the mesh. The constructions shown are intended for use with plates made of titanium, but conventional materials may be used in which case the peripheral gasket is received in a groove formed in the plate. As shown, a gasket retaining wire 8 attached to the periphery of the mesh and a secondary retaining wire (11, Fig. 2) are embedded in the rubber gaskets 9, 10, said gaskets being bonded to or integral with each other, the wire 8 extending outside the part 3, the wire 11 being located about the aperture 4. Alternatively the wires 8 and 11 can be replaced by thin flexible strips (15, Fig. 8). The mesh can be made from any suitable material, which for example may be of round or square section wire or which may be coated, e.g. with the same material from which the gasket is made, the wire intersections being joined by any suitable means and being aligned through the pack of plates to provide solid interplate support through the pack.

Abstract: 598,655. Creasing and slotting carton blanks. STEVENS, A. H. (Swift, Jr., Inc., G. W.). Sept. 12, 1944, No. 17402. [Class 100 (ii)] [Also in Group VIII] A machine for creasing, or creasing and slotting container blanks such as those made of fibre board of the type described in Specification 434,366 which produces blanks 1 as shown in Fig. 1 comprising transverse creases 2, 3, longitudinal creases 6, and slotted parts 4, 5 to facilitate folding of the blanks, is constructed so as to be adjustable quickly to produce blanks of different sizes in which the distance between the forward crease 2 and slots 4 and the rear crease 3 and slots 5 can be adjusted quickly. As in the prior machine the blanks are fed by pushers to the first set of creasing rollers 5, 6 and the position of the first crease is determined by blank registering devices. The second crease 3 is produced by rollers 10, 11 fitted with creasing devices 12, 13 secured in longitudinal slots in the rollers by means of bolts and nuts, and in order to adjust the position of the second crease the rollers are driven by gears which are circumferentially adjustable relatively to a driving-gear which is connected to the main driving-gear. The blanks are fed through the creasing machine by rollers 9 and to slotting rollers 16, 17, 20, 21 by means of rollers 14, 19<1>. The male slotting members 18, 22 and female members 19, 23 are mounted so as to be readily adjusted circumferentially relatively to their carrying-rollers, and the driving gears of the members 20, 21 are capable of adjustment in the same manner as those of the creasing-rollers 10, 11 so that the slots 5 and crease 3 may be made to register. The blanks pass from the rollers 20, 21 to mechanism B C O as in the prior machine for printing the blanks and forming creases.
