Abstract: 1,272,485. Weighing electrically; weighing apparatus. BREARLEY CO. July 16, 1969 [Aug. 5, 1968], No.35893/69. Headings G1N and G1W. A bathroom scale comprises a platform 23; a base 15 inside which is a platform counterbalancing spring 31 and a potentiometer 27 of which the wiper 28 is mechanically linked to the platform so as to vary the current from battery 32 to meter 33; and a readout instrument 16 including the meter and connected to the base by a flexible cable 14. A switch 22 is arranged to be actuated by depression of the platform to connect the battery to the meter. The meter is graduated in pounds and has three ranges 0-100, 100-200 and 200-300 selectable by a switch 18; zero and full-scale deflections for each range being set by adjustments of a plurality of pairs of potentiometers e.g. 37, 38 and 39, 40 respectively. Meter overload protection is by a pair of oppositely-poled diodes 41. The load on the platform acts through U-brackets 58 by way of U-shaped hangers 61 straddling the legs 62 of bell-crank levers 63 of which lower portions 67 are engaged with parallel bars 66 to produce longitudinal motion thereof. This motion is transferred through yokes 68 to levers 47, 48 connected by T-member 49 to horizontal plate 46 to which the spring 31 is hooked. Movement of plate 46 is transmitted through rack 30 and pinion (29) Fig.4 (not shown) to the potentiometer 27. Rotation of the pinion actuates the cam 25 to close the switch 22. In an alternative embodiment Figs. 11, 12 (not shown) the meter has a single range from 0-300 and no overload protection.

In the em bodiment shown in Fig. 1A, the foot rest is in the form of a light alloy casting comprising a socket 10a for a handle 11 and four sockets 10b for the reception of steel prongs 13 This embodiment may be modified by elongating the sockets 10b so that the prongs are effectively tubular. light alloy members which receive at their lower ends the tangs of hardened tips such as those shown at 41a in Fig. 4A, and this in turn may be modified in forming the work head from two separate, grooved castings and welding them together face-to-face so that the grooves form sockets for receiving the tangs of the hardened tips. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 4A, the prongs 41 comprise two U-shaped light alloy tube members welded or otherwise secured to the foot rest 40 which is formed by two light alloy pressings joined face-to-face to locate the members 41 in position. As shown in Fig. 5, the two outer prongs comprise a single U- shaped member 50 of tubular light alloy material, the base of the U-shaped member forming the foot rest. The centre prongs 52 are welded to the foot rest, and a handle attachment 54 made of two light alloy pressings welded together is assembled round the foot rest and centre prongs.

Abstract: 508,547. Cellulose ethers. JOHNS0N, G. W. (1. G. Farbenindustrie Akt.-Ges.) Dec. 30, 1937, No. 36121. [Class 2 (ii)] Materials soluble or capable of swelling in water, but insoluble in organic solvents, are produced by etherifying pretreated wood with inonohalogenacetic acids or their salts, e.g. mono-chloracetic acid or its sodium salt. The wood is pretreated with caustic soda solution at normal or increased pressure, in such a manner that the lignin, pentosan, and resin constituents are not substantially removed. In examples, a mixture of beechwood or pinewood sawdust and caustic soda solution is allowed to stand for several hours, if desired. under pressure. Monochloracetic acid, alone, or neutralized by caustic soda, is added and the mixture allowed to stand for some days at 20-25‹ C. The mixture is freed from salts and excess sodium hydroxide by extraction with a suitable solvent, e.g. ethanol or methanol, and if desired, the water soluble other carboxylic acid is separated by addition of dilute acids, e.g. acetic acid. Alternatively,. the reaction mixture is acidified with cone. hydrochloric acid, washed with water, and finally neutralized with ammonia or alkali hydroxide. Specification 343,521 is referred to.

Abstract: 1,107,268. Respiratory apparatus. RETEC Inc. 12 Aug., 1966, No. 36320/66. Heading AST. [Also in Divisions F1. G1 and G3] A fluid switching device in a respirator comprises a nozzle 12 which is fed by a gas supply P and which opens into a chamber 20 having two outlet passages 15, 17 arranged symmetrically with respect to the nozzle. The wall of passage 15 is shaped at 13 so that the gas will normally attach to this wall and flow out of the passage 15. The passage 15 is connected to the lungs through a face mask (26). In operation, the fluid flows into the lungs until the pressure increases to a certain level and the back pressure causes the gas to switch to the outlet passage 24. The flow then switches back to the passage 15 after the pressure in the lungs has dropped to a certain value due to flow from the lungs to the passage 24. Variations in the shape of the wall 13 determine the pressure switching levels and a negative pressure may be obtained in the lungs before switching occurs. In a modification, Fig. 10 (not shown) the bias is provided by a pressure acting on one side of the jet to cause flow to the lower outlet, the pressure being led from openings in the side wall of the lower outlet passage. An electrically driven blower may be attached to the device or the supply may be from an engage bottle.

The cross head die is mounted to a main extruder which extrudes an inner layer of modified polyethylene or polypropylene, and subsidiary extruders are connected at angles of 25 to 90 degrees to form an outer layer, e.g. of nylon. Alternatively the flow from the main extruder may be divided to feed inlets for both the inner and outer layers. The thickness of the parison is modified by moving the core pin 9 within the die under the control of an electronic programmer.
