Abstract: 677,422. Controlling motor vehicles. ENGLER, W. May 14, 1948 [May 14, 1947], No. 13349/48. Class 79(v) [Also in Group XXXIV] In a brake actuating mechanism for a motor vehicle there is provided a manually operable valve which in one position shuts off the carburetter from the engine allowing communication between the engine and a cylinder and thereby a pressure reduction produced by the engine to move a piston within the cylinder to apply the brakes and in another position shuts off communication between the cylinder and the engine and allows communication between the carburetter and the engine. As shown a lever 27 having an arcuate handle 27<SP>1</SP> is pivotally attached to the steering column 2 and operates by means of a rod 25 and a cable 21 the plate 15 of the valve in the air inlet pipe 5. The valve 15 is urged by means of a spring 17 into the position shown closing the cylinder 12 from the engine 4. Movement of the handle 27<SP>1</SP> towards the steering wheel 3 causes the plate 15 to close the pipe 5 between the engine 4 and the carburetter (not shown) causing the engine pressure reduction to move the piston 12<SP>1</SP> to the left. The piston 12<SP>1</SP> is connected to a brake operating arm 31 for each wheel brake by a rod 10 which is provided with a slot 11 which engages with a pin 9 on an arm 8 integral with the brake pedal 6. The brakes may alternatively be operated hydraulically.

Title: Machine for the working of skins, hides and leather
IPC: C14B1/04
Filed: 1921-05-13
Abstract: 182,993. Richter, G., (trading as Richter, L.). May 13, 1921. Rotating-tool machines. - In a rotating-tool machine for treating hides, skins or leather, the supporting and feeding rollers are movably mounted relatively to each other, but are adapted when in the working position to yield simultaneously to compensate for inequalities in the skin. In a machine having two knife cylinders, the supporting-rollers are arranged to press the skin alternately against the cylinders and for a short time simultaneously against both cylinders. As shown, the feeding-rollers 3, 4 are mounted in arms f pivoted at d in the frame of the machine and normally drawn towards their respective cylinders by springs e. The supporting-rollers 5, 6 are carried by arms g pivoted to the arms f and operated by cams i. When in the working position, as shown on the right-hand side, the arm g engages a stop h on the arm f, so that when any inequalities occur in the skin, the supporting and feeding rollers yield simultaneously about the pivot d. In a machine having two knife cylinders, a new skin a, b is inserted on the left-hand side of the machine when the parts are in the position shown, and while the cylinder 2 is operating on the rear end of the previous skin. The roller 5 is then moved by its cam i into working position and presses the skin against the cylinder 1 which treats one half of the skin. The roller 6 is moved away from the cylinder 2 into position to receive the unworked part of the skin, and subsequently returned into contact with the cylinder 2.

Patent GB-991017-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in and relating to luminescent mixtures and an organic compound for usetherein
IPC: G21H3/02
Filed: 1961-04-17
Abstract: A method of producing an organic compound, for use in producing a luminescent mixture constituting a self-illuminating light source and consisting of a luminescent material dispersed in a polymer having chemically incorporated tritium, consists of chemically incorporating the tritium in the organic compound by subjecting it, in an atmosphere of tritium, to an electric discharge or to an ionizing radiation other than that of the tritium atmosphere.  The organic compound can be mixed with the luminescent material before or after being subjected to the electric discharge or ionizing radiation.  The tritium atmosphere can be at a pressure between 100 and 700 mms., the ionizing radiation can be a source of gamma, X-ray, beta rays or ions, and the organic compound treated can be in powder form. Alternatively, the compound in powder form can be enclosed with tritium gas in a tube and subjected to silent electric discharges or Tesla discharges.  The organic compound can be the polymer and the luminescent material can be incorporated in the tritium containing polymer when the polymer is in flowable form, e.g. molten or dissolved in a solvent such as chloroform. Alternatively the organic compound can be a compound used in the preparation of the polymer and the luminescent material can be mixed with the organic compound after having tritium incorporated therein and before being converted to the polymer.  The organic compound can be an intermediary compound which can be directly converted to the polymer or can be a monomer from which the polymer is formed by polymerization in which case the monomer can be polymerized whilst it is subjected to the treatment with tritium.  The tritium containing compound can have sufficient luminescent material embedded therein that in the mixture each crystal of luminescent material has only a thin skin of tritium containing compound enveloping it.  The enveloped crystals can be covered by a further layer of another compound not containing tritium.  Organic compounds to be treated can be polymethacrylate, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyester, polyethylene &c. Luminescent materials used can be zinc sulphide activated with silver or copper, cadmium sulphide, manganates, tungstates, silicates, fluoresceine or eosin.  The luminescent particle diameter can be approximately 0.002 mm. to 0.006 mm.  The luminescent materials produced can be used in the production of watch faces, instrument panels and signposts. Specification 646,414 is referred to.
