Abstract: 1,274,160. Making injection needles. S. WADA. 23 Dec., 1970, No. 61216/70. Heading B3A. Cutting or grinding burrs are removed from an injection needle 1, or an injection needle tube, by a high-pressure jet of water. Stainlesssteel needle-tubes, cut to length, are placed in a plastics basket 10 having a bottom 9 of wire net, and are moved by a conveyer belt 12 beneath a number of nozzles 13 or a single, laterally-reciprocating nozzle. Water issuing from the nozzle removes burr (2, 2<SP>1</SP>), Fig. 2 (not shown), from the upper ends of the tubes. These are then inverted and placed in another basket 10 for de-burring the opposite ends. The tubes then pass through a dryer (11), Fig. 4 (not shown), before the points are ground.

Patent GB-628063-A (GB)
Abstract: 628,063. Transfer mechanism. NATIONAL 'CASH REGISTER CO. June 20, 1947, No. 16366. Convention date, Sept. 25, 1941. [Class 106 (i)] An accounting or similar calculating machine including a plurality of interspersed totalizers, common actuators therefor, and selectively operable means adapted to cause said totalizers to be shifted axially of the actuators to align a related totalizer therewith, comprises also a tens transfer mechanism adjacent to each actuator, means to impart a further axial shift to the selected totalizer, after it has been actuated by the actuators, to align it with the tens transfer mechanism, and means effective thereafter to operate the tens transfer mechanism to make a tens transfer. The invention is applied to a machine of the type described in Specification 628,064 to which reference is made. When a totalizer pinion 138, Fig. 2, passes through zero in the adding (clockwise) direction, it rocks a trip yoke 181 to free a transfer-operating arm 185 which is then rocked clockwise slightly by a spring until stopped by a pin 186 on a transfer-restoring disc 187 fixed to a central shaft 105. When actuation is complete, the totalizer pinions are moved axially as described below to disconnect them from the actuators and engage them with transfer segments 170, this movement being accompanied by a partial disengaging movement away from the actuators to avoid fouling between the teeth of the totalizer, the actuator and the transfer segment. The central shaft 105 and restoring disc 187 are then rocked counterclockwise from a main cam-shaft 130, thus removing the pin 186 from the tripped arm 185 which is thereupon turned clockwise by its spring, this movement allowing a spring 173 to rock the transfer segment 170 counterclockwise to effect transfer. This transfer mechanism is restored at the beginning of the next cycle. The totalizers are of the interspersed type mounted on four lines, each having nine totalizers. Each totalizer frame is slid along its frame shaft 243, Fig. 4, by a selecting slide 233 to select the required totalizer. The frame is given an additional small sliding movement to move the selected totalizer pinions from engagement with the actuators 104 and into engagement with the transfer segments. The selecting slide 233 is slidably mounted on a yoke 234 which itself is given the additional sliding movement by a cam 244 on a spider 246 free on the central shaft 105, the spider being oscillated by cams on the main cam-shaft. The cam 244 is disconnected from its driving means near the end of the first cycle of a total-taking operation by mechanism operated by a total-control shaft which is itself rocked consequent upon the movement of a total lever. Specifications 8119/15, [Class 106 (i)], and 280,828, [Class 100 (iv)], also are referred to.

The moulded body may be supported with freedom to expand both axially and radially (as shown) or merely axially (Figs. 1 and 2, not shown). The moulded body is preferably annular and has a higher coefficient of thermal expansion than its support 19.

A mandrel 17 which may be square in section according to the required shape for the inside of the work is fixedly supported between the dies by a rod 18 over which the work 12 is fed. In modifications the head 4 may be stationary and the race 2 or outer ring 1 rotatably driven.

Patent GB-783949-A (GB)
Abstract: 783,949. Cash registers. NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO. June 29, 1956 '[July 1, 1955], No. 20159/56. Class 100(4) [Also in Group XIX] In a cash register or accounting machine, adapted to print transaction data simultaneously on all the sheets of an inserted manifold ticket or slip, an impression roller is traversed bodily over the type carriers and in opposite directions upon successive machine operations. In the machine shown, there are three rollers 184 for co-operation, respectively, with date wheels 177, an electro 176, and with amount wheels 37. The rollers are resilient and are each carried by a stirrup 187 supported in a holder 188 with a resilient pad 191 interposed. The holder is carried by pairs of links 195 and 197 rockable on shafts 211 and 213 for traversing the rollers along an arcuate path through the impression position. A pawl 216 engages notches in a link 197 to retain the rollers at either end of their arcuate path. For traversing the rollers. a driving segment 221 pivoted at 222, Fig. 4, engages a pinion 220 on the shaft 213 to which the links 197 are secured. A pitman 223 is pivoted at 230 to the segment, and is formed with surfaces 234 and 235 for engagement bv a driving stud 233 on the follower 226 of a cam pair 224, 225 on a main shaft 46, the follower being rocked first clockwise, then counterclockwise past home position, and finally clockwise back to home position. A lever 238 has an arm 237 engaging under a stud 236 on the pitman and is rocked clockwise and back under control of a cam 241, Fig. 2, on a shaft 242, so releasing the pitman for counterclockwise movement about its pivotal connection 230 under the action of a spring 231. The extent of this movement of the pitman is controlled by the engagement of an ear 272 on a sensing arm 273 connected to the pitman with high and low surfaces 293, 292 of a segment 296 connected by means of a link 297 with the driving segment 221. By this means, the surface 292 or 293 presented to the ear 272 is determined by the last direction of movement of the driving segment and rollers 185, ad so the pitman 223 is moved counterclockwise to present the surface 234 or 235 to the driving stud 233, whereby the segment and rollers are moved in the reverse direction to that previously.
