Title: Turntable Bearing Structure.
IPC: G11B17/022
Filed: 1967-11-03
Abstract: 1,184,609. Bearings. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. 3 Nov., 1967 [3 Jan., 1967], No. 50075/67. Heading F2A. A combined plain radial and thrust bearing comprises a rotatable cup-shaped member having a recess formed therein which receives a non-rotatable vertical shaft, the latter being mounted in a support. In an embodiment a cup-shaped member 63, Fig. 3, is mounted in a turntable 15 of a disc-type recording and reproducing device 11, Fig. 1 (not shown) and is supported by means of a non-rotatable shaft 53 which is knurled at 54 and is forced into a bore 55 of a housing 49. The cup-shaped member 63 having a part spherical-shaped surface 71, is axially supported by means of a radiussed edge 56b of the shaft 53 and, having an internal cylindrical-shaped surface 69, is radially supported by means of the shaft 53. In a modification a cup-shaped member 163 Fig. 6, is integral with a turntable 115 and, having a radiussed surface 171 formed at the lower end of its wall 165, is axially supported by means of a polished metal washer 173 carried by a shoulder 175 of a sleeve 51. The cup-shaped members 63 and 163 may be made from synthetic plastics material.

Title: Improved method of and apparatus for stacking sides of leather or similar sheet material
IPC: C14B1/62
Filed: 1965-11-25
Abstract: 1,082,170. Delivery apparatus. SWIFT & CO. Nov. 25, 1965 [July 19, 1965], No. 50098/65. Heading B6H. A stacking apparatus for hides and the like comprises an inclined conveyer 17 carrying hides to a terminal position at the top end where they are dropped across a horse-like receiver; a first sensing position towards the top of the incline which detects the presence of a hide and operates a device to direct a stream of air to carry the leading edge of the hide to the far side of the horse; and a diverting means, shown as soft rollers 46, which engage the trailing edge of the hide to direct it over the near side of the horse. The sensing means comprise a number of photo-cells 36. located between ribbons 24 of the conveyer 17. When activated a solenoid valve directs the air to a manifold 41, Fig. 4, which carries the hide from the terminal end of the conveyer. The air is cut off after a predetermined delay and the rollers 46, carried on rotatable arms 48 pivot clockwise and tuck the trailing edge downwardly (see Fig. 5). The inclination of the conveyer is automatically raised by legs 19 attached to chains 78 trained over sprockets 76 to a counterweight 80. The sprocket 76 is driven by a motor energized upon the closure of contacts 62 which are mounted on a dog 63 on the shaft of the rollers 46. The contacts close if they engage the top of the pile on the horse and automatically opens when the conveyer is raised sufficiently. In a modification, Fig. 7, the conveyer is in two parts, a section at a fixed inclined angle and a section pivoted thereto. The elevation of the pivotal section to accommodate the rising pile height comprises a pneumatic cylinder 96 with extendable piston rod 97 mounted on a parallel linkage 98, 99. When diverting rolls 94 (equivalent to rolls 46 in Fig. 1) operate, the cylinder 96 is actuated to extend the piston to its full length thus raising the conveyer section. A non-return pawl 105 and ratchet 103 maintains the conveyer in raised position.

Abstract: 1347158 Labelling AVERY PRODUCTS CORP 9 Nov 1971 [12 Nov 1970] 51864/71 Heading B8F An apparatus for applying labels to flat articles, such as envelopes, comprises means for feeding the articles from a stack to a labelling head while positively gripping them between first and second pinch rolls, sensing means detecting the presence or absence of an article at the first pinch rolls, and means responsive to the sensing means for operating or stopping the feed means when an article is respectively absent or present. In the embodiment shown envelopes 18 are fed successively from a stack by intermittently driven feed rolls 20, 21 to continuously driven first and second pinch rolls 26, 27; 32, 33 which are spaced apart a distance less than the length of the envelope so that the envelope is being gripped by at least one set of rolls as it passes over labelling table 30. Pressuresensitive labels 40 are peeled from backing web 41 when the web is pulled by roll 75 around peel bar 42. The absence of an envelope between rolls 26, 27 is sensed by device 125, causing feed rolls 20, 21 to be actuated and the passage of the leading edge of the delivered envelope past light-source photo-cell arrangement 105, 106 causes the roll 75 to be driven after a suitable time delay to begin to deliver a label. Another light-source photo-cell arrangement 61, 62 stops roll 75 after it has taken up one label length of backing web. As shown, roll 43 presses down the label but since the label is fed at the same speed as the envelope this roll may be omitted leaving rolls 32, 33 to ensure proper adhesion.

[Also in Division Cl] Water is removed from aqueous solutions of solids, e.g. foodstuffs, detergents, or alkali metal phosphates, by introducing the solution by means of spray device 7 into a stream of hot combustion gases emerging, at a velocity of at least 300 ft/sec., from a tube 10 which is connected to the combustion chamber 3, the mixture of droplets and gas having unimpeded travel in tower 4 over sufficient distance to bring about evaporation of the water and yield a solid product which is subjected to high temperature for only a short time. The solid product is removed from tower 4 by conveyor screw 6, and the gaseous effluent is extracted by fan 9. The spray device comprises a circular tube (Fig. 2) having two feed pipes 13. There are twelve holes in the circular tube, three holes 14 being inclined towards the axis of the spray, and nine holes being inclined outwards from the axis. The equilibrium temperature in tower 4 can be controlled by varying the concentration of the aqueous solution, diluting the combustion gases, or regulating the rate of fuel consumed or the rate of solution feed. Examples are given relating to the preparation of tetrasodium pyrophosphate and of sodium tripolyphosphate from aqueous solutions of sodium orthophosphates.

Abstract: 1,040,099. Selective punching machines. ELECTRONIC ASSISTANCE CORPORATION. Dec. 29, 1964 [Jan. 3, 1964], No. 52685/64. Heading B4B. A punching machine for perforating a card or tape 36 for use in retail sales operation or in parimutual betting systems comprises a carrier 22 in which punch pins 24 to 29 are slidable, a die plate 18 having openings for the punch pins, interposer bars 46 to 51, Fig. 3, selectively operable to block the upward movement of the punch pins, a cam 68 mounted on a crank-shaft 60 driven by a motor 62, for moving the carrier 22 towards and away from the die plate 18, and means for stopping the motor 62 after the shaft 60 has made one revolution, the interposer bars being connected to flexible cables 53, Fig. 3, which are selectively operable to move the interposer bars to the unblocking position against the action of springs 54, and the means for operating different groups of the cables being manually-operable push-buttons, solenoids or cams and cam followers. When the card 36 is positioned correctly, it closes a switch 100, Figs. 2 and 4, and when a push-button switch 108, Fig. 4, is closed, a switch 110 is closed to form a first circuit to a power source 106. A relay 120 is thus energized to complete a circuit from a power source 124 to the motor 62 through relay armature 125. The motor then rotates the shaft 60 and cam 68 driving the carrier 22 downwardly. The blocked punch pins 24 to 29 and a cancelling punch 33 contact and perforate the card. A cam 112 mounted on the shaft 60 is likewise driven by the motor and after about 5 to 10 degrees of rotation lifts cam follower 114<SP>1</SP>, Fig. 4, thus closing switch 114. A second circuit from the power source 106 is thereby completed. Switch 108 now opens. Also, at the time the other perforations are being made, the portion of the card 36 contacting the switch 100 is removed by the punch member 78, Fig. 4, thereby causing the switch 100 to open. As the shaft 60 continues to rotate, the carrier 22 is returned to its uppermost position. When the cam has rotated through about 355 degrees, the follower 114<SP>1</SP> drops its detent 112<SP>1</SP>, thereby opening the switch 114 and breaking the circuit to the relay 120 and hence to the motor 62.
