Title: A process for the production of food for animals
IPC: A23K10/28
Filed: 1962-03-12
Abstract: A yeast food for animals, cattle especially, is made by growing yeast, especially a torula yeast, in a medium comprising firstly a primary residual liquid, exemplified by spent wash of grain distillation and by whey, and an auxiliary residual liquid from a manufacture different from that which yielded the primary residual liquid, such auxiliary liquid supplying yeast nutrients not supplied by the primary residual liquid, and being exemplified by the liquid remaining on glutanic acid production from sugar beet molasses residues.  A feed so produced is of composition: moisture 6%, protein 35.5%, betaine 6%, lactose 14%, lactic acid 1.6%, mineral substances 16%, fatty substances 4%, cellulose nil, other non-nitrogenous substances 38%.  The feed may be mixed with meal, oilcake, sugar or fat.

Abstract: 1,128,947. Lasers. SOC. ANON. DE TELECOMMUNICATIONS. 3 March, 1966 [24 March, 1965; 29 July, 1965; 19 Oct., 1965; 4 Nov., 1965], No. 9434/66. Heading H1C. In a laser emitting continuous infra-red radiation a polyatomic gas is subjected to a permanent discharge, the discharge being such that it has zones of heterogeneity in the vicinity of the electrodes inducing the discharge. As shown in Fig. 2 a fused silica tube 1 having flat mirrors 7, 8 mounted thereon is disposed axially of a rigid envelope 18 mounted on a base-plate 13. After being filled with a gaseous active medium comprising carbon dioxide, air and helium, or nitrous oxide, air and helium, or carbon dioxide alone or nitrous oxide the entry port 2 is sealed. Excitation is by means of wire electrodes extending axially of tube 1 along the external surface thereof, Figs. 4, 7, 8 (not shown), which electrodes are energized by a high frequency generator 27 or a D.C. generator. The parameters of the generator are adjusted so that the discharge has a heterogeneous distribution which comprises two zones localized close to the electrodes, Fig. 7 (not shown), and in these zones the nitrogen, oxygen and helium molecules, are energized prior to transfer of energy to the carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide molecules by resonant collisions in the centre of the tube to produce population inverse between the vibrational rotational levels thereof. The mirror 8 is provided with a narrow window for emitting the stimulated emission. The number of electrodes may be more than two, being an even number for singlephase operation and if multi-phase operation is employed there is a multiple of the phases of electrodes. The electrodes may be divided into several insulated sections along the axis of the tube, in which case there is one generator for each section. Instead of being formed by cylindrical wires or rods they can be formed by at least one pair of helices with the same winding direction and offset by half a pitch, Fig. 9 (not shown). The electrodes may be arranged inside the tube 1, Fig. 10 (not shown). The parallel arrangement between the mirrors 7, 8 forming the optical cavity is by means of micrometer screws and springs Figs. 5, 6 (not shown), acting on square nut 23, Fig. 2, situated around the middle of tube 1. The mirrors may be spherical and confocal. In the arrangement of Figs. 11 to 15 (not shown) each of the mirrors is formed by two flat reflecting surfaces arranged at right angles to each other, the roof edges formed thereby being perpendicular to each other and the tube axis. The two mirrors at one end of the tube may be formed by two isosceles prisms, Fig. 11 (not shown), a gap being provided between the prisms to allow an output to be emitted therethrough. A fan may be positioned underneath the housing 18, Fig. 6 (not shown), for cooling purposes and the whole apparatus enclosed except for an exit hole.

Ornamenting fabrics.- Portions are punched out of leather or like material, particularly cut shoe uppers or similar cut-out work pieces, and corresponding pieces punched out of other sheet material are inserted into the openings produced. To ornament a number of sheets in succession, the first sheet is placed in a machine and the parts are punched out, the sheet is removed and the punchings ejected from the punches, then a second sheet is placed in the machine and, after being punched, is replaced by the first sheet so that the punchings from the second sheet are ejected into the openings in the first sheet. Similarly, the punchings from the third sheet are ejected into the openings in the second sheet. and so on. Alternatively, the punchings from each sheet may be removed from the machine and the punch used to procure and apply punchings from a sheet of material of another colour or from a number of pieces laid side-by-side. In one form, Fig. 2, the machine comprises a support 1 for one of a series of work-holders 5 adapted to be placed in a set position below a multiple-punch plate 11 bolted to an arm 12 pivoted at 10 to the support 1. The ejecting- means of series of plungers 17 arranged inside the punches and carried by a block 18 slidably mounted in a recess in the end of the arm 12. When punching is to he effected, the arm 12 is depressed against the action of a spring 33 by a cam 11 turned bv means of a hand-lever 13, and for rejecting the punchings, a lever 14 fixed to a shaft 4 is turned whereby a cam 15 depresses the arm 12 until the punches contact with the work and a second cam 16 then engages and depresses the block 18. To separate the work from the punches, a spring-pressed plate 26 is arranged below the punch plate 11, and, to vary the action of the cam 15 in accordance with different thicknesses of work, a slidable wedge 19 is provided between the cam and the arm 12. The sheet of material is laid on a plate 5 and is clamped thereon bv wing nuts 7 bearing against the cross-bar of a U-shaped plate 6 and by springs 9 bearing against the end of each leg. A circular backing sheet arranged under the work is adjustable about a boss 24. Fig. 3, shows a power-operated machine comprising a punch plate 78 and an ejecting-plate 74, the former being reciprocated for punching by an eccentric 54 acting through a pin 58 and slot 60 and being moved into contact with the work by a cam 70, and the latter being actuated by a cam 68. The work is laid on a table 64 adapted to be moved along in steps by a crank 90 and rod 92 to position side-bv-side work pieces successively under the punch. A stripping-plate 82 is also provided.
