Abstract: 1434596 Polyamide-acid electrodeposition composition WESTINGHOUSE ELECTRIC CORP 9 April 1973 [19 April 1972] 16824/73 Heading C3R [Also in Division C7] A method of making a non-aqueous, colloidal polyamide-acid electrodeposition composition comprises reacting 1 part (weight) polyamide acid in 29 to 37 parts non-aqueous non-electrolysable organic solvent with 0À8 to 1À2 parts of an imidazole or tertiary amine to form an organic salt and adding the resulting salt solution to 50 to 150 parts of a non-aqueous non-electrolysable organic non-solvent for the salt to provide a colloidal dispersion thereof in the solvent/non- solvent mixture. Finely divided pigments or lubricants may be added to the composition. Numerous suitable aromatic tri- or tetracarboxy compounds and diamines for forming the polyamide acid, tertiary amines, solvents and non-solvents are specified. In specific examples a proprietary solution of polyamideacid in N-methyl pyrrolidone is diluted with dimethyl sulphoxide to the required concentration; triethylamine, 1-methyl imidazole or N,N-dimethyl benzylamine is used to form the salt; and acetone is used as the non-solvent. An 18 wt. per cent solution of a polyamideacid from pyromellitic dianhydride and 3,4<SP>1</SP>- diaminobenzanilide may be used in place of the proprietary solution. The resin is electrodeposited on aluminium, copper, nickel, stainless steel or platinum.

Abstract: 301,098. Riding, E. June 25, 1927. Labelling.-A machine for labelling bottles, jars &c. comprises an adjustable bed for the bottles, means for holding a stack of labels, and movable arms fitted with means for applying a coating of mucilage to the bottom label which is then applied to the bottle &c. by means of wipers carried by the arms, a separate arm being arranged to hold the label temporarily in place on the bottle while its sides are wiped into contact therewith. The bottle &c. h is placed on a vertically-adjustable support a, a gauge being provided comprising an arm f pivoted to the machine frame e and movable outwarcds to a set position, and the labels are carried in a skeleton frame k provided with lips m. The labels are pressed downwards by a weight q which can give in an upward direction against a spring y abutting against a collar x on a screwed stem r acting as a ratchet in engagement with a pair of weighted pawls 2. The mucilage is contained in a pair of tanks 4 containing spring-influenced rollers 5 fitted with star-wheels 19. The mucilage is applied to the labels by replaceable plates 8 mounted together with wipers 9 on arms 10 pivotally carried by arms 6. The arms 10 are furnished with rollers 12 engaging counterweighted cam tracks 15 which are pivoted at 14 to the machine frame, on the downward stroke of the arms 6 the rollers 12 ride down the outside of the cams 15, as shown, and bring the plates 8 into contact with the mucilage rollers 5, which are given a partial rotation by engagement of the rollers 12 with the star-wheels 19; during this downward stroke the rollers 12 are maintained in contact with the cams 15 by springs between the arms 6 and 10. At the end of the stroke the arms 10 leave the cams 15 and spring inwardly through gaps 45, and the arms 6 rise to present the plates 8 to the lowermost label. As the arms again move downwardly the lowermost label, now sticking to the plates 8, is placed on the bottle, and, the rollers 12 re-engaging the cams 15, the arms 10 are swung round to bring the wipers 9 into action to attach the sides of the label to the bottle. The label is held in position during this operation by a pad 23 carried on a pivoted arm 20 operated by levers 24 and links 26 from tappets 28.

Abstract: 833,662. Electric clocks. PEMEW S.A. June 4, 1956 [June 6, 1955], No. 17158/56. Class 139 An electric clock of the electromagnetically maintained balance type has a winding and two magnetizable elements one of which is fixed and the other of which is carried by the balance staff, the maintaining impulses being obtained by mutual repulsion of the elements when the winding is energized to magnetize them with the same polarity. In the first embodiment, Fig. 1, the first magnetizable element F1 is carried by the balance staff a and moves inside a coil M to which the second magnetizable element F2 is attached. When the maintaining circuit is closed by a contact g meeting a contact l the elements Fl, F2 are magnetized with the same polarity and repel each other to give a maintaining impulse. A second pair of magnetizable elements may be located diametrically opposite to the pair F1, F2. In another example, Fig. 7, two connected windings M1, M2 are provided and the cooperating magnetizable elements F1, F2 are U-shaped. In the example of Fig. 9 the two co-operating magnetizable elements F1, F2 are finger shaped and each is surrounded by a winding. Instead of extending radially from the balance staff the elements F1, F2 may extend parallel thereto and two diametrically opposite pair of magnetizable elements may be provided. In another example, Fig. 10, the elements F1, F2 extend parallel to the axis of the balance staff and carry small circular discs r1, r2. In another example, the winding is a flat coil and the elements are of oval or elliptical shape. In another example, Fig. 16, two concentric stationary windings N1, N2 are provided and the elements F1, F2 are carried by the balance staff a and the winding N1 respectively. Two pairs of coils may be used as shown in Fig. 17.

Title: Methods of and apparatus for making filamentary material
IPC: B22D11/00
Filed: 1974-04-19
Abstract: 1470103 Continuous casting BATTELLE DEVELOPMENT CORP 19 April 1974 [23 April 1973] 17312/74 Heading B3F [Also in Divisions C1 and C7] A filament 10<SP>1</SP> (or fibres) of a material such as metal, alloy or Al 2 O 3  is (are) drawn off from a molten drop 51 of the material by a peripheral edge 32, of arcuate cross-section, of a rotating, rotationally-symmetrical member 30, the edge moving at more than 3 feet/sec., e.g. up to 100 feet/sec., without disturbing the stability of the drop. The drop may be formed by heating a solid member 20 in a region 50, Fig. 1, or by supplying molten metal 22, Fig. 4, to an orifice 40, where it may be reheated. The material of the drop is at a temperature above its M.Pt. and less than 125% of the M.Pt. in degrees Kelvin and has a surface tension of 10-2500 dynes/cm. and a viscosity of 10<SP>-3</SP>-1 poise. The drop need not be pendant as shown but could be sessile, i.e. supported from below, so that it can contact the lower run of the edge 32. It may be formed by an elongated orifice so as to be elongated to enable a number of edges to pass through it. The radius of curvature of the cross-section of the edge 32 on a tapered periphery 31 is 0À0005 to 0À10 inch and produces a filament 10 of non-circular cross-section and area less than 0À003 square inches. The effective filament diameter may be 0À0004 to 0À030 inches. The periphery may be of part-circular cross-section with a radius less than 0À5 inch. The rotated disc 30 (1-30 inches in diameter) may be of Al, Cu, Fe, Mo, Ni, steel or graphite or composed of several parts of different materials. It may be internally cooled. To produce fibres (see Division C7), the edge 32 is indented at intervals. The molten drop 51 may be produced by heating the solid material by oxyacetylene or propane torch, by resistance- or inductionheating or by electron beam. A local inert gas shield may protect the molten drop or the apparatus may be in an enclosure for vacuum or an inert gas. The metal melted may be Cr or Sn or an alloy based on Al, Cu, Fe (such as stainless steel), Ni, Sn or Zn; stainless or Ni-Cr steel may be used if an acetylene-rich oxyacetylene flame is used to reduce oxygen; an alloy based on Mg, Mo, Nb, Ta, Ti or Zr, or the metals Ti or Nb, may be used in a vacuum or inert gas. Instead of metal, Al 2 O 3  may be used (see Division C1).

IPC: H01J37/30
Filed: 1918-10-24
Abstract: 121,280. Larsen, A. Sinding-. Dec. 7, 1917, [Convention date]. Vacuum tubes.-In a furnace, cathode rays are caused to converge and pass through a narrow opening into a heating-chamber. As shown, brickwork A encloses a heating-chamber E containing a crucible, and three communicating lower chambers each provided with an electrode G for one phase of the current. Convergence of the rays to pass the openings F is produced by making the electrodes concave or by providing solenoids. The electrodes may be insulated and cooled at the back, or may form parts of the furnace wall. A pipe N connects the chambers to a pump through a vacuum reservoir compensating for gas evolution. A tube and mirror H allow observation of the openings F and surrounding parts to enable the electrodes to be adjusted. The crucible or other object heated may be earthed when alternating current is employed, or may be connected to the positive main with direct current.
