Title: Improvements in or relating to apparatus for creasing or creping paper or the like
Inventor: LEWIS JAMES GABRIEL
IPC: B31F1/10
Filed: 1950-01-19
Abstract: 678,393. Creping paper &c. IMPERIAL TOBACCO CO. (OF GREAT BRITAIN & IRELAND), Ltd. Dec. 22, 1950 [Jan. 19, 1950; Jan. 19, 1950], Nos. 1436/50 and 1437/50. Class 141. [Also in Group VIII] Apparatus for creasing or creping paper &c. longitudinally or on the slant, comprises pairs of rotating rollers having co-operating grooves and ribs that engage the paper between them, part of the grooves and ribs of each later roller-pair engaging with creasing already imparted to the paper but without enlarging it whilst the remainder impart new creasing, thus building up creasing gradually to avoid tearing the paper. The grooves and ribs either extend separately round the circumference of each roller or are formed helically. In one embodiment, Fig. 2, there are two co-operating ribs and grooves in the first pair of rollers 1, four in the second roller 2, six in the third roller 3 and so on, arranged so that each successive pair of rollers extends the creasing by one rib and groove at each end. In a modification, Fig. 4, the creasing is built up simultaneously along three spaced strips of paper by roller pairs 1, 1' to 4, 4' after which the rest of the paper is creased by six sets of ribs and grooves in roller pairs 5, 5' to 7, 7' and four in the pair 8, 8' arranged so that in these pairs the ribs and grooves engage part only of the creasing already imparted to avoid weakening the paper. In the initial stages, the paper between the creased strips is suitably bent providing transverse slack to allow for a subsequent decrease in width. In another modification, Fig. 6, the roller pairs are formed by small rollers 1 to 5 and a large roller 11 which is driven, the small rollers being rotated by engagement therewith. The roller 11 may have deeper grooves, between the sets of ribs and grooves, engaged by annular ribs on an extra roller 13 to provide the necessary slack, the paper being guided to this roller by fingers 25. The small rollers 1 to 5 and the roller 13 may be individually supported or mounted on a chain of links 15 at one end of which is a spring 17. This arrangement produces strips of creasing separated by narrow plain portions.

Title: Improvements in or relating to pressure responsive devices comprising diaphragms and the like
IPC: G01L7/00
Filed: 1944-01-27
Abstract: 579,289. Diaphragms. NEGRETTI, H. N., NEGRETTI, P. E., and GREENING, E. F. Jan. 27, 1944, No. 1571. [Class 106 (ii)] A pressure-responsive combination comprises a diaphragm having a negative spring rating in counteracting relationship with force-applying means having a positive spring rating so that through a substantial range of deflection of the diaphragm the rating of the combination is low compared with that of the diaphragm. This enables relatively robust material to be used for the diaphragm and also gives bigger deflections for smaller pressure differences. The force-applying means may be separate from the diaphragm and may be, e.g. a spring, or it may be integral with the diaphragm structure, e.g. a spring mounting. Means may be provided for varying the relative rating of the diaphragm and the force-applying means. Fig. 4 shows a diaphragm 2A having a negative spring rating subjected to pressure P1, and a counteracting spring 1 with zero adjusting screw 2 having a positive spring rating. In modified arrangements the two sides of the diaphragm may each be subjected to pressures, or two diaphragms as shown in Fig. 4 may be connected to the same lever and may be subjected to different pressures. Fig. 11 shows a combination in which the diaphragm 10 of negative spring rating and having radial stiffening ribs 12 is mounted at its periphery in a mount 11 having a positive spring rating.

Abstract: 455,751. Strengthening glassware. CORNING GLASS WORKS, Walnut Street, Corning, New York, U.S.A.-(Assignees of Phillips, C. J.; 78, John Street, Corning, New York, U.S.A.) Jan. 17, 1936, No. 1600. Convention date, Feb. 11, 1935. [Class 56] Glass articles are strengthened by tempering and, in addition, by fortifying the surface by submitting the article to the action of an etching agent which removes or smooths surface imperfections such as scratches. The glass may be heated to a temperature of 750‹ C., and then placed in a molten mixture of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, also at a temperature of 750‹ C. After a short time, the glass is removed and chilled rapidly. In another method, the glass is first subjected to an etching agent, such as hydrofluoric acid, and immediately after removal from the acid it is heated and chilled as in the usual processes for tempering. In a further method, the glass is first heated to the required temperature, then it is submerged in a chilling-bath composed of a molten mixture of sodium and potassium hydroxides at 650‹ C., and finally it is removed to another chilling-bath at a lower temperature. The glass may also be heated in a bath of the etching material and may be chilled in another. Other molten mixtures of salts which are strongly alkaline, such as alkali cyanides or carbonates, can be used instead of those mentioned above.

The cover may be carried in a bracket so that it can be lifted and swung aside. Fig. 7 shows an arrangement in which the filter element 12 is backed by a perforated plate 7, spaced from the cover 21. With the arrangement shown in Fig. 9, the liquid passes through the pipe 5 to a space above the element 12 and filters downwards. Fig. 10 shows a further arrangement in which elements 12 are supported on both the grooved faces of a plate 30. Specification 430,952 is referred to.
