Patent GB-1097074-A (GB)
Title: Guanidine derivatives and compositions containing the same
Inventor: GREEN ALBERT LAWRENCE
IPC: A61K31/155
Filed: 1965-04-08
Abstract: The invention comprises acid addition salts of l-b -hydroxy-b -phenylethylguanidine, preferably the sulphate. The novel salts may be made by (a) reacting l-b -hydroxy-b -phenylethylamine with an isothiouronium salt, preferably S-methylisothiouronium sulphate, to obtain the l-guanidine salt, which may be converted to another salt by double decomposition with an appropriate salt, e.g. barium chloride, or (b) resolving a racemic mixture of a salt of b  - hydroxy - b  - phenylethylguanidine with an optically active acid. The l-b -hydroxy b -phenylethylamine may be obtained either by resolving a racemic mixture of b -hydroxy-b -phenylethylamine with an optically active acid, e.g. D-tartaric acid, or by the reduction of l-mandelamide with, for example, lithium aluminium hydride. Pharmaceutical compositions comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable addition salt of l-b -hydroxy-b -phenylethylguanidine in association with a pharmaceutical carrier.  The compositions may be in any form suitable for oral administration or parenteral administration, for example a tablet, capsule, pill, cachet, sachet, powder, solution or suspension, or in a dosage unit made up in a sustained release form. The compositions act as hypotensive agents for humans.

Abstract: 699,294. Loose leaf binders. WILSON, F. May 31, 1951 [June 16, 1950], No. 15073/50. Class 146 (i). A loose leaf binder for papers 17 or like leaves, comprises, a card 10 or backing member, an elastic lace 13 and toggle 14 secured thereto to be threaded through holes 17a in the papers, the lace being threaded through an aperture 11 or 18 in the card 10 smaller than the thickness of the toggle 14 and adapted to be tensioned on the card, the toggle 14 being shaped to stand substantially upright across the aperture 11 or 18 under the tension so that the papers can be threaded thereover. As shown in Fig. 2, the elastic lace 13 is secured at one end through a hole 16 in the toggle and at the other end has a small anchoring toggle passing through a second aperture in the card 10 to anchor the lace. As shown in Fig. 5, the lace 13 is passed through holes 23 in the toggle 14 and at each end it has an anchoring toggle 21, 22 passing through apertures 19, 20 in the card 10. The toggle 14 is formed from a flat strip of metal tapered at one end 14a which is of a size to fit within the aperture 11 or 18, and having an elongated taper to assist threading on the opposite end. The toggle 14 instead of flat metal, may be of circular rod or tube, tapered at one end or the toggle may have straight sides. The apertures in the card 10 may be reinforced, as shown, by metal eyelets 11a.

Abstract: 924,271. Haymaking machines. PATENT CONCERN N.V. May 4, 1959 [May 27, 1958], No. 15257/59. Class 6(3). A haymaking machine comprises driven, rotating, tined raking members 20, 21 each lying in a plane perpendicular to a vertical plane parallel to the direction of motion and each inclined rearwardly and upwardly to the horizontal at 30 degrees-60 degrees. In Fig. 1 the frame 2 is supported on two rear castors 4, 5 and includes an arched member 3 which terminates in a front castor 6 and a pivoted drawbar 33. The raking members are carried on a beam 10 floatingly, pivoted to the frame 2 about an oblique horizontal axis 15 and adjustable by a screwed spindle with a cranked handle 45A. The raking members, which have downwardly-cranked tines 35 extending approximately vertically in their lowermost position, are driven by chains 25, 26 from a gearbox having three input-shafts 28, 29, 30 connectible to the power take-off of a tractor (not shown). When the input 28 is used, the raking members rotate in the direction 31, for side-delivery, but when either of the inputs 29, 30 is employed rotation is in the direction 32, the input 30 corresponding to a higher rotational speed. In modifications, the raking members can comprise toothed dished discs, the frame 2 can be coupled directly to a tractor and the ground wheels can be vertically adjustable, in addition to being lockable against swivelling. Arcuate guards 38, 39 prevent hay from reaching the upper surfaces of the members 20, 21. Specifications 924,272, 924,273, 924,274 and 924,275 are referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to portable motor driven nibblers
IPC: B23D49/16
Filed: 1941-12-03
Abstract: 558,650. Shearing. STEVENS, A. H. (Independent Pneumatic Tool Co.). Dec. 3, 1941, No. 15609. [Class 83 (iv)] [Also in Group XXIII] A portable motor-driven nibbling machine has the cutting element in the head reversible and is arranged to cut on the up stroke. The electric or fluid pressure driving motor and reduction gearing are mounted in a casing having an extended part 25, Fig. 2, with its axis parallel to that of the driven shaft 14 which has an eccentric 32 carrying a ball race mounted on a transverse slideway 31 in a ram 26 sliding in a cylindrical bore but prevented from rotating by a guide pin 28. The nibbling cutter 38 is rotatably secured in the ram betwen screw plugs 77, 78 the latter having a set screw 79 bearing on the head 82, to limit the play to that necessary to permit rotation, and acting in conjunction with a divided marker 83. Adjustment of both plugs enables the position of the cutting edge 67 to be adjusted. A closure cap 84 is hollowed to form a lubricant container replenished through an oiler 85. The lower part of the punch 38 is polygonal and is guided in a head 35 adjusted at 74 75 in the casing 25 and in a bore of the ram. Three screws 39 selectively engage a series of holes on the face 36 to permit the head 35 being located at various angles to the motor casing which serves as handle. The lateral guides for the punch are formed by side plates 55, 56, Fig. 3, secured by cross-pins 88, and the guideway is closed by the stationary cutter plate 59 grooved on both sides at 63, 64 to fit the punch so that in addition to the cutting edge 65 a second edge 66 may be brought into operation by removing and reversing the plate. The cutting edge 67 of the punch is backed off at 67a, Fig. 2a, and clearance 68 is provided at a corresponding angle to allow the edge to be ground and permit the free passage of cuttings for discharge through an opening 69 in the cutter plate 59 and in a cover plate 70 having a projection 74 that serves both as an indicator -for guiding the nibbler along a marked iine on the work 'and for deflecting the cuttings laterally so that they neither obscure the line nor pass again to the cutting edges. An adjustable screw 46 serves as nipper and holddown and is maintained in adjusted position by a spring pressed ball 49 engaging grooves 51 in the head. The cutting edge .of the punch is curved at 67, Fig. 10, with short flat portions C at each extremity. The punch is cut away at 87 to match the tapered neck 86 of the frame to permit the machine to be passed along a curved line of cut.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the production of artificial protein filaments
IPC: D01F4/00
Filed: 1945-06-20
Abstract: Wet-spun protein filaments rendered resistant to attack by boiling water and hot dilute acid as by means of treatment with formaldehyde in the presence of a strongly acidified saline solution are given increased strength by subjecting them in air dry state, and preferably at a relative humidity of above 30 per cent, to sufficient tension to stretch them beyond their elastic limit, but insufficient to break them.  The treated filaments can be cut into staple fibres which may be treated, if desired, with an aqueous formaldehyde solution.  In an example, an aqueous alkaline solution of peanut globulins is spun into an aqueous bath containing sulphuric acid and sodium sulphate to produce filaments, which are stretched first in the coagulating bath and then in a bath of the same composition, immersed in a saturated sodium chloride solution at 30 DEG  C., immersed in an aqueous bath containing sulphuric acid, sodium chloride and formaldehyde at 40 DEG  C., washed, soaked first in sodium cetyl sulphate solution and then in sodium carbonate solution, washed and dried at 100 DEG  C. The filaments are then gradually stretched in air at 20 DEG  C., and above 30 per cent relative humidity to beyond their elastic limit.
