Abstract: 1456744 Extrusion blow moulding multilayered container TORAY INDUSTRIES Inc 8 March 1974 [13 March 1973] 10486/74 Heading B5A [Also in Division B8] A multi-layered blow moulded thermoplastics container comprises at least one layer 22 composed of a mixture of (i) 55 to 99% by weight of polyamide and (ii) 3 to 45% by weight of an ethylene copolymer containing 0À1 to 10% by mole of at least one compound selected from unsaturated carboxylic acids or amides, esters, anhydrides or metal salts thereof, and one or more layers 21 and 23 composed of an olefin polymer, the thickness of the layer(s) composed of the mixture being 2 to 30% of the total thickness of the lamination and the melt streams forming the layers being combined within a common extrusion die prior to blow-moulding. The container may comprise a double treble, or quadruple-layer construction. As shown, a triple-layer wall construction is formed by combining polymer melt streams within a composite die having three coaxial annular passages between parts 6, 7, 8 and 13, the inner and outer passages being fed with the olefin polymer stream by a screw extruder 3 and the intermediate passage being fed with the mixture. Combining the streams within the die to form a composite tube is said to result in improved bonding between the layers. The tube may be blown subsequently or immediately in a two-part mould 11 to form the container. The olefin polymer layer or layers may be constituted by low, medium, or high density polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutene-1, and olefin copolymers, such as ethylene-propylene copolymer. The polyamide utilized in the "mixture" layer may be nylon-6, nylon-66, nylon-12, nylon-11, nylon- 10, nylon-610, nylon-612 or combinations thereof. The ethylene copolymer of the "mixture" may be in any form, i.e. graft, block or random, and is preferably copolymer consisting of 90 to 99À9% by mole of ethylene and 0À1 to 10% by mole of a metal salt of acrylic or methacrylic acid, zinc methacrylate being preferred.

Title: Line indicating copy holders
IPC: B41J29/15
Filed: 1937-04-13
Abstract: 493,778. Copy-holders. SLEE, A. L. April 13, 1937, No. 10539. Convention date, Nov. 23, 1936. [Class 100 (iii)] A copy-holder comprises two superposed sheets slidably connected together for limited relative movement, which causes a line-indicator to be intermittently moved over the sheets. A base-sheet 1, Figs. 1 and 2, of cardboard or metal is cut, scored, and folded to form a foot 2 and supports 3, 4. Superposed on the base sheet is a copy-supporting sheet 11 guided for limited vertical movement thereon by struck-up tabs 12, Fig. 3, passing through slits of greater length, which are formed by tabs 7 struck up from the base-sheet. The slits are longer than the tabs 12 by an amount equal to a double line-space. An indiarubber band 17, extending from the top of the support 4 and around a tab 16, holds the copy-sheet 11 in the upper position. A shelf 18 on the lower edge of the copy-sheet supports the copy and serves for operating the device. Tabs 21 hold the upper edge of the copy. The indicator 34 has at its ends rearwardly extending portions 38, Fig. 6, which are supported by bracing-pieces 39 and are slit to form tabs 42, 43 adapted to engage frictionally the opposite surfaces of the sheets. Slots 8 in the edges of the sheets near their upper and lower ends enable the tabs to be engaged with, and removed from, the sheets. The indicator is moved down a step by depression of the shelf 18, the sheet 11 gripping the indicator by means of the tabs 43. On release of the shelf, the sheet 11 is retracted by the band 17, but the return of the indicator is prevented by the binding of the rear tabs 42 against the basesheet 1. The movement of the indicator is limited to either single or double spacing by means of a spacer 20, mounted to slide horizontally at the lower edge of the base-sheet and adjusted by means of a bar 22. The spacer carries a forked member 28 containing a stop 29, the inclined upper end of which co-operates with the inclined upper edge 14 of the aperture formed in the copy-sheet by the cutting-out of the lower pair of tongues 12. The spacing is varied by adjustment of the stop 29 so as to engage with different parts of the inclined edge 14.

Abstract: 557,896. Control of motors. IGRANIC ELECTRIC CO., Ltd. July 30, 1942, No. 10669. Convention date, Aug. 4, 1941. [Class 38 (iii] An overload relay OL is rendered inoperative once the motor M has started until it is stopped normally or is stalled. If the motor is driving a machine tool, this. action may prevent the welding of an overheated tool to the work. Momentary closure of a "start" button or tappet switch 20 causes contacter F to lift and maintain itself at contact 24, and thereafter contacter 12 lifts. As the motor starts, centrifugal switch 21 energizes coil of relay CR over contacts 26 of contacter F. Relay CR maintains itself at contacts 27, and at contacts 18 short circuits contacts 13 of the overload relay OL. When "stop" button or limit switch LS is opened, contacter F drops, and completes at the contacts 28 a circuit for the coil of "plugging" contacter R, which lifts and remains up until motor stops and switch 21 opens. Upon overload, relay OL lifts and latches up, but if motor has started and relay CR is up, it has no effect until the motor is stopped, whereupon it has to be manually unlatched before the motor can be restarted.

Abstract: 675,856. Television. ELECTRIC & MUSICAL INDUSTRIES, Ltd. April 21, 1950 [April 22, 1949], No. 10690/49. Class 40 (iii). In a projection-type television receiver, the path of the sound emanating from a loudspeaker within the receiver cabinet and the path of the light image projected from the receiver are arranged to be substantially coincident or to converge so that the sound is reflected by the viewing screen back to the viewer. In the arrangement shown, the viewing screen 7 is curved so as to be concave towards the viewer and the optical projection system 2 and/or the loud-speaker 8 are arranged to be angularly adjustable to enable the angle of convergence to be adjusted in accordance with the distance of the view-screen from the receiver so that the axes of system 2 and loud-speaker, meet at screen 7. In this embodiment, loud-speaker 8 reproduces only the high frequencies, the low frequencies being reproduced by a further loud-speaker 9 which is mounted so that the sound is diffused by a deflector 13 through an annular grille 14. Alternatively, loud-speaker 9 may be dispensed with and loud-speaker 8 employed for reproduction of both high and low frequencies. Instead of causing convergence of the sound paths and light paths the loudspeaker may be mounted closely adjacent to the optical projection system so that their axes substantially coincide. Specification 9423/46 (as open to inspection under Sect. 91), is referred to.
