Title: Improvements in and relating to the measuring of the velocity of fluid substances and/or of the mass flow
IPC: G01F1/28
Filed: 1961-11-20
Abstract: 919,593. Measuring fluid flow. FLATTEN, P., [trading as FLATTEN, P. [Firm of]]. Nov. 20, 1961 [Nov. 19, 1960], No. 41394/61. Class 69 (1). Fluid flow is measured by balancing the torque produced by the flow on a movable resistance plate against a measurable opposing torque. A butterfly valve 6 pivoted in a conduit 7 is fixed to an arm 5 which carries a baffle-plate 4 and a knife-edged roller 9. A valve 2 supplies air through ducts 1a, 1b and 1c to a jet 3 and a bellows 8. Depression of the arm 5 due to fluid flow in the conduit 7 causes the baffle-plate 4 to obstruct emission of air from the jet 3 whilst the consequent increase in pressure in the ducts la, 1b and 1c cause the bellows 8 to press against the roller 9 to balance the movement of the arm 5. The resulting pressure is read on an indicator and/or recorder at 11.

Abstract: 1494699 Liquid dispensing control BRAUN AG 9 Oct 1975 [22 Oct 1974] 41411/75 Heading A4T [Also in Division G 1] In a juice dispensing apparatus the outlet 2 of the apparatus is opened and closed in dependence on the presence or absence of a vessel 28 to be filled below the outlet, the detection of the vessel being sensed without physical contact of the sensor with the vessel. In one embodiment the vessel is detected by the reflection of an air jet from an outer pipe 16 into a central pipe 15 leading to a diaphragm 13 to operate a micro-switch 8. The switch controls electric supply to a solenoid magnet 5 which pivots the outlet closure 3. Alternatively the vessel may reflect radiation, e.g. infrared or ultraviolet to a detector (30), Fig. 2 (not shown), or reflect ultrasonic waves. If the vessel has a metal lug it is suggested to use magnetic, inductive or capacitive proximity switches.

Abstract: 1480698 Salt consumption indication apparatus LICENTIA PATENT-VERWALTUNGS GmbH 9 Oct 1975 [29 Oct 1974] 41453/75 Heading G1N An apparatus for determining the consumption of salt from the regenerator of an ion-exchange water softener comprises a salt storage chamber 3 divided into two parts 4, 5 by two partitions 14, 15, a water inlet 16, a salt solution outlet 9 and conductivity measuring electrodes 11, 12 in the inlet chamber. The dividers 14, 15 define an overflow passage 17 which may contain a non- return valve, as may outlet 9. In use, both chambers 4, 5 are filled with salt 6, 6' through filler openings 7. Water from inlet 16 will dissolve salt in chamber 4 first so that a saturated solution passes through chamber 5. When the salt 6 in chamber 4 is used up, the conductivity of the solution between electrodes 11, 12 rises and measuring circuit 13 activates a warning. The salt in chamber 5 still remains as a reserve.

Abstract: 873,329. Ice-making. HOYER, O. G. Dec. 11, 1959, No. 42273/59. Class 29 A machine for filling ice-cream into the freezing cells of a refrigerator comprises a vertically movable filling unit (Fig. 2) having a plurality of filling tubes 22 for pouring the material into the cells 2 from the bottom thereof, means, 101, 102, 104, for moving the filling unit up and down, a pump 9 (Fig. 3) associated with 'each filling tube 22, a common drive-shaft 12 for all the pumps, driving means for the shaft including a clutch 55 (Fig. 7) and means for engaging and disengaging the clutch in timed relation with the movement of the filling unit. The machine is similar to that described in Specification 744,583 and includes a rotary table 1 with radial lines of filling cells 2, which sit in an annular freezing tank 3 surrounded by an insulating wall 4. The filling head is described in Specification 860,529 and includes three side-by-side tanks 23 each of which feeds a different ice-cream to one of the three pumps 9 associated with each cell 2, each pump having a separate filling tube 22. Alternatively, the cells may be filled with only one type of material (Fig. 11, not shown). The drive to pump-shaft 12 is taken through an infinitely-variable belt-gearing 121, 122 and bevel-gearing 115, 116, to a vertical shaft 64 extending throughout the length of a housing 73, 87, 81 which forms part of the filling head and is moved up and down by a bellcrank 103, 104 rocked by a cam 102 on a continuously-driven shaft 101. The upper part 73 of the housing contains a magnetic clutch (Fig. 7) which transmits the drive through bevel-gearing 70, 71 to the pumpshaft 9. The clutch is actuated electrically by switches 155, 156 (Fig. 14) controlled by a cam 157 on a shaft 146 rotating synchronously with the main shaft 101. To ensure that ice-cream flow stops suddenly at the end of the upward movement of the filling head, the portion 21 of the head above each filling tube includes a retractable plunger 45 in a bore 46 (Figs. 3 and 14) perpendicular to the direction of flow and these plungers can be retracted in unison by a splined shaft 47 engaging all the plungers 45 and driven by a pneumatic ram 50 controllable by solenoids 181, 182 in the circuits associated with the switches 155, 156. Movement of the head can be arrested, at will, by the manual closing of a switch 194 which actuates a ram 113 to lock the bell-crank 103,104 out of contact with the cam 102. Specification 800,105 also is referred to.
