Title: Miniaturized circuit-breaker switches
IPC: H01H73/30
Filed: 1970-11-17
Abstract: 1329752 Automatic circuit breakers CROUZET 17 Nov 1970 [20 Nov 1969] 54558/70 Heading H1N A push button reset, trip free circuit breaker has a two part insulating casing housing a pair of fixed contacts 2 and movable assembly comprising a pair of movable contacts 32a interconnected by a U-shaped bimetal tripping element 34. The push button 6 has a slotted extension 9 and a link 14 has a cross pin 15 engaging in its slot 9a and a second cross pin 16 engaging in a slot 11d in side plates of the movable assembly. Two co-operating latch members 20, 22 normally retain the pin 16 at the upper end of slot 11d, so that when the push button is pressed the link 14 drives the movable assembly downwards to close the contacts as shown. During this movement the pin 15 rides down a surface 17b in the casing and becomes latched beneath a plate 18. The sideways force on pin 15 due to a spring 31 biasing the movable assembly, being greater than that due to a restoring spring (19, Fig. 1, not shown) of the push button, retains the pin 15 in the latched position unless the push button is pulled upwards when the shaped slot 9a cams the pin 15 to the right releasing the whole assembly. Each movable contact 32a is carried by a resilient blade 32 riveted to an insulating block 28b and clamped at 35 to one of a pair of compensating bimetals 27 and to one free leg of the bimetal 34. The base of the U-shaped bimetal 34 is adjustable by a screw 37. When the bimetal 34 bends due to excessive current the free ends of the compensating bimetals 27 (which are insulated) tilt the first latch member 22 to relase the second member 20 which in turn releases pin 16 for movement along the slot 11d; the movable assembly can thus rise independently of the push button 6. If the push button is unimpeded its restoring spring (19) then pushes it up, pin 15 being disengaged from plate 18 by the slot 9a. The push button has differently coloured bands 7, 8 visible only in the off position.

Abstract: 1401997 Anion exchange membranes and their production TOKUYAMA SODA KK 27 Nov 1972 [26 Nov 1971] 54698/72 Heading C3P An anion exchange membrane contains both cation and anion exchanging groups, the cation exchange groups being sulphonic acid groups which are present at or near the surface of the membrane in a concentration which decreases progressively towards the interior of the membrane, the percentage of sulphonic acid groups being from 0À05 to 20% of the total number of ion exchange groups and the direct current resistance (R D ) of the membrane is less than 2-3 times the alternating current resistance (R A ). The membrane may be produced by sulphonating under mild conditions, a base membrane containing groups convertible to ion exchange group to convert said groups at or near the surface to sulphonic acid groups, and then converting the remainder of said groups into anion exchange groups, such that the final percentage of sulphonic acid groups is as specified above and the ratio of R D  to R A  is less than 2-3. Suitable sulphonating agents are a mixture of H 2 SO 4  and water, H 2 SO 4 , a mixture of H 2 SO 4  and chlorosulphonic acid, and chlorosulphonic acid. Suitable polymers contain phenyl or naphthyl groups which may be substituted by at least one alkyl group, halogen atom, haloalkyl group or hydroxy group, and may be derived from monomers such as styrene, vinyl toluene, vinyl naphthalene, divinyl benzene and nuclear substituted derivatives thereof. Phenol-formaldehyde resins are also useful. In the examples membranes are made by (a) polymerizing a styrene/divinyl benzene/PVC powder mix which has been impregnated into PVC cloth, and then sulphonating or chlorosulphonating/hydrolysing, and chloromethylating and aminating, or (b) impregnating a PVC film with styrene and divinyl benzene and polymerizing, and then sulphonating, chloromethylating and aminating.

Title: Valves for fluids
IPC: F15B13/04
Filed: 1971-12-06
Abstract: 1362664 Fluid-pressure servomotor systems SPERRY RAND CORP 6 Dec 1971 [6 Jan 1971] 56506/71 Heading G3P [Also in Division F2] A follow-up servomotor control valve comprises two valve spools 86 and 104, the latter within the former, in a bore 80 of a body 70. The spool 86 is axially movable by means of an eccentric pin 96 on a shaft 94, which moves the spool 86 on rotation of the shaft by an actuating arm 98. Communicating with the bore 80 are an inlet port 76, motor port 78 and exhaust ports 74. The spool 104 has lands and grooves so that it may connect the motor port 90 (of spool 86) with either the inlet port 88 or the exhaust port 91 thereof. Control lines 66 and 68 at either end of body 70 can adjust by fluidpressure, through pistons 110 and 112, the position of spool 104. Movement of spool 104 away from its central position is controlled in two stages via springs 118, 120 and 122, 124, the latter (stronger) acting only after a certain displacement of spool 104 has occurred. On movement away from a neutral position of spool 86 to the left via lever 98 fluid will pass from the inlet port 88 to motor port 90 which will operate a servomotor which is incorporated in a hydrostatic transmission to reduce pump displacement which in turn increases pressure in conduit 68 and so spool 104 is moved to follow spool 86. The spool 104 maintains a balanced position which varies depending on the conditions within the hydrostatic transmission (load, &c.) and by so moving maintains a constant pressure in conduit 68, and so a constant output torque is maintained by the transmission. For reverse of the transmission the lever 98 is moved to move spool 86 to the right, so that the constant pressure is maintained in conduit 66 (connected with the other main line between pump and motor).

The support material may be paper, optionally provided with a barrier coating, or a plastics film e.g. of polypropylene, or polyethylene terephthalate. When the coated surface of the carbon paper is placed in contact with one surface of a master copy sheet and the other surface is typed on, a colourless reverse image is produced on the first-mentioned surface of the master copy sheet. This surface is brought into contact successively with sheets of copy paper moistened with a copying fluid in the presence of an electron-accepting substance. The latter substance may be present in the copying,fluid or on the copy paper. Thus, the copying fluid may contain an organic acid e.g. tannic, tartaric, salicylic, anthranitic, or benzoic acid or an inorganic acid e.g. HCl. Where the substance is present on the paper it may be an acid mineral e.g. attapulgite, calcium sulphate or an acid-treated coating e.g. containing phosphotungstic and phosphomolybic acids. In a typical example, a barrier-coated tissue is coated with a composition containing bis-(pdimethylaminophenyl) methane-α-benzyloxym-sodium carboxylate, carnauba wax, petroleum jelly, and mineral oil. Copies are made using a copying fluid-impregnated paper, the copying fluid containing ethanol, benzyl alcohol, and salicylic acid.
