Patent GB-2296508-A (GB)
Title: Fibre cutting apparatus
Inventor: TAKEHARA KATSUOMI
IPC: D01G1/04
Filed: 1995-12-21
Abstract: The present invention is designed to wind a long continuous fiber around a rotor and to cut the fiber in prescribed lengths by blades positioned at intervals on the circumference of a rotor. Scrapers rotate together with the rotor in order to scrape out the cut fibers displaced between the blades in accordance with the reciprocal movement of the rotor in the axial direction. The use of scrapers makes it possible to prevent the over packing of the cut fibers disposed between the blades, as seen in the case of conventional apparatuses, and to forcibly discharge the cut fibers from between the blades. Consequently, the cutting ability improves remarkably, specifically in cases where the fiber to be cut is especially short.
Patent GB-2313336-A (GB)
Title: Abrading tool
Inventor: PHILLIPS JOHN
IPC: B25D17/11
Filed: 1996-05-24
Abstract: An abrading tool having a number of chisels 18 arranged in a circular pattern and in parallel which are pressed forwardly onto a workpiece by two or more bearings 20 that are attached to a revolving driving head 19. On contact with the workpiece the chisels rebound and strike a hardened rebound plate 26 within the tool which absorbs the reciprocal forces. The chisel housing 16 can be replaced by other housings of different shapes and housing smaller numbers of chisels, in order to gain access to difficult areas. An acoustic shield with a vacuum pipe connection (Fig 9) can be fitted to reduce noise and collect debris. Principally intended to be driven by an electric angle grinder type unit it can also be adapted to fit an electric drill.

Patent GB-2320017-A (GB)
Title: Vented container for easy pouring or drinking
Inventor: TRIBBLE CHRISTOPHER NIGEL STAF
IPC: B65D1/40
Filed: 1996-12-06
Abstract: A bottle is illustrated in figure 1 which has a non-return valve 1 in it's base. This non-return valve enables air to enter the bottle to equalise pressure when liquid is exiting the bottle through the neck 2. This allows for easier drinking or pouring from the bottle because air does not need to enter the bottle through the same hole the liquid is leaving from. This principal can be applied to any container for liquids, other examples being cans or bottles.
Patent GB-2308451-A (GB)
Title: Short bore MRI magnet with some coils carrying reversed current
Inventor: CROZIER STUART
IPC: G01R33/3815
Filed: 1996-12-06
Abstract: Axial MRI magnets designed with the aid of computer-based simulated annealing procedures comprise sets of coils in which some of the coils carry current flowing in the reverse direction. Such reversed flow, in combination with a relatively large number of coils, allows the development of short bore MRI magnets with high field homogeneity. The annealing procedure uses a weighted spherical harmonic field homogeneity error function. The procedures may be applied also to shim and gradient coils, and to the design of effective active shielding. A biplanar magnet is disclosed (figure 10).

Title: Apparatus for fabricating an optical fibre coated with metal
Inventor: DO MUN-HYUN
IPC: C03C25/10
Filed: 1997-04-25
Abstract: Apparatus for fabricating a silica optical fibre coated with metal e.g. copper, aluminium or tin is described. An optical fibre preform is melted in a crucible 12 to allow an uncoated optical fibre to be drawn from it.

Title: Proximity fuze and warhead system for last ditch defence
Inventor: WHATMOUGH COLIN
IPC: F41H5/007
Filed: 1999-05-27
Abstract: A proximity fuze and warhead system for close-in defence of e.g. fixed targets, tanks or ships against attacks by Cruise Missiles (Guided Bombs), Battlefield Missiles and Sea Skimming Missiles consists of several independent passive infra-red fuze elements each of which can have an optical system providing forward and rear 6 micron and possibly other spectral detector beams so that in conjunction with detector/amplifier designs, the aerodynamic heating of the incoming supersonic and sub sonic missile nose sections can be detected and therefore warhead sections of these incoming missiles located and destroyed or severely disrupted by the target's on-board warheads which have a suitable size and beam pattern and which are initiated by the passive infra-red sensors. The sensors are insensitive to other than the designated missiles, have low false alarm rates, are very reliable and together with the warheads are autonomous and can be added close to or on board the target without integration with any target on board system.
