Title: Improved foundation pile for supporting structural components
IPC: E02D27/02
Filed: 1964-01-30
Abstract: 1,025,289. Winding bobbins; doffing. DOWSMITH Inc. Sept. 16, 1963 [Sept. 25, 1962], No. 36376/63. Headings DID and D1J. [Also in Division B8] A continuous strand of material to be wound on a rotating cylindrical member is secured to the member by means of a circumferentially extending slot formed between the end face of the member and a detachable end plate in which the strand may be caught and wound initially. Multifilament glass strand 22 is wound on a cardboard tube 23 on one of three cyclindrical winding members 1 mounted upon a turntable 3 and is distributed in crossing convolutions thereon by the rotation and reciprocation of strand traversing means 21. The winding members 1 are driven simultaneously by means of belts 6, 4. When one member is filled the turntable rotates automatically through one-third of a revolution to bring an empty member into the winding position; simultaneously with this action, a guide member 33 pivotally mounted on a pin 34 moves to catch the strand and to guide it into a circumferential slot 37 provided between the end of the member 1 and a dished plate 39 held magnetically to the member as shown in Fig. 5. Pins 42 limit the depth to which the strand may enter the slot and ensure even winding of the strand. An annular spigot (Fig. 6 not shown) may be provided on the end of the member 1 as an alternative for the same purpose. A hand brake 15 is provided to arrest the wound member without stopping the rotation of the other member so that the package may be removed and replaced by an empty tube. A foot brake 11 serves similarly to arrest the member in the winding position in order to initiate the whole winding operation. In this case the strand is inserted manually in the slot, the winding member brought gradually up to speed and since much of this initially wound strand is not properly attenuated a transfer operation to the succeeding winding member may follow directly.

Abstract: 882,915. Electric' selective signalling systems. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION. Feb. 6, 1959 [Feb. 6, 1958], No. 4328/59. Class 40 (1). In a system for converting a combination of electrically represented bits into a corresponding angular displacement each bit produces a rotation or not of a piston in a cylinder, the extent of the rotation corresponding to the weight of the bit, the individual cylinders and pistons are arranged in a series with each piston connected to the adjacent cylinder, whereby the piston of the last cylinder in the series rotates through an angle corresponding to the sum of all the component rotations. As described each cylinder comprises members 19, and 26, Fig. 2, the member 26 being located in the member 19 by a pin and hole 27, 28, and each piston comprises a shaft 34 having a vane 33. Fluid pressure is supplied to the inside of the member 19 via ports 22 or 23 in two circumferential grooves 21, 22, which register with two similar grooves in a supporting block 16. On operation the piston is arranged inside the cylinder, Figs. 3, 4, and can be rotated either clockwise or anticlockwise an amount determined by member 26 by admitting fluid pressure to one or other of the two circumferential grooves. As shown in Fig. 4, fluid is being forced into groove 17, entering the piston chamber via port 22, displacing the vane clockwise and escaping through the partially constricted port 23 and groove 21.

Title: Improvements in maximum load automatic tumbler switches
IPC: H01H73/24
Filed: 1936-02-13
Abstract: 454,535. Electrically - released switches ; controllers. REICH, E., 16, V÷r÷smarty u., Budapest. Feb. 13, 1936, No. 4360. [Classes 38 (iii) and 38 (v)] A maximum load automatic switch has a contact A movable manually in an arc from a normal " off " position, Fig. 1, to a contacting position, Fig. 2, in which it connects fixed contacts B, the contact A being movable automatically to a second cut - out or contacting position C, from which it is returned to the " off " position by hand. In the construction shown, the contact A is moved to the contacting position with a snap action by rotating a tumbler lever F, and is held in this position by the arm of a spring-controlled lever k pivoted at e. When the current in the controlled circuit exceeds a predetermined maximum, a bimetallic strip b heated by a coil t bends and moves the lever k out of engagement with a nose A<1> on the lever carrying the contact A, whereupon the latter moves to the position C. In order to reclose the circuit, the contact A must be returned to the " off " position shown in Fig. 1 by rotating the tumbler lever F. By constructing the switch as a three-pole switch and making the position C a second contacting position, the switch can be used as a stardelta or other controller for motors having starting and running connections.

Title: Method and devices for recording and reproducing sounds, more particularly applicable to the recording and reproducing of film records
IPC: G11B7/00
Filed: 1930-02-08
Abstract: 348,567. Sound recording and reproducing. BRAMI, J., 25, Rue du Sommerard, Paris. Feb. 8, 1930, No. 4363. [Class 40 (ii).] Optical apparatus.-A screen of graduated tint is employed in the recording or reproducing of an optical sound record. A screen C formed with a triangular elongated aperture is adapted to shield a greater or less part of the filament of the light source X the image of which filament is concentrated through the optical device I upon the mirror K of a galvanometer G which is in the circuit of a microphone M. The beam reflected by the mirror K gives an image in the form of a luminous line S on the graduated screen E. This screen E, Fig. 2, is opaque at one end and transparent at the other, the intermediate portion gradually shading off from opaque to transparent according to a suitably selected law of variation. Arranged behind the screen E is a slotted diaphragm F in front of the sensitized film L which winds at uniform speed from a reel A to a take-up reel. The illumination of the line S, when projected on to the film L, undergoes a modulation as the galvanometer is deflected, which is dependent upon the degree of transparency or capacity of the portion of the screen E through which it passes. Thus when sound vibrations are received by the microphone M, the mirror K oscillates and in this way deflects the luminous line S so that a photographic sound record is formed on the film L which will produce a positive print as shown at A in Fig. 6. This record may be reproduced in the usual manner. If the graduated screen is not used during the recording process a record is obtained as shown at B in Fig. 6. Such a record is then reproduced by suitably interposing the graduated screen in the reproducing apparatus. In order that longer record striµ may be accommodated on the narrow sound-record margin of a talking picture film, the arrangement of Fig. 7 is used whereby both for recording and reproducing an oblique slot is employed with the luminous line S oscillating in a direction parallel to the slot.

Patent GB-595332-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in motion picture film and the like
IPC: G03D15/00
Filed: 1945-02-23
Abstract: Photographic film is treated on at least one of its surfaces with a substance (such as palmityl chloride, stearyl chloride, or cetylsulphonyl chloride) which reacts chemically with that surface to form a lubricant.  The film support may be a cellulose derivative such as the nitrate, acetate, or ethyl ether or partial polyvinyl acetal, and such support may be coated on one or both sides with layers of gelatin, polyvinyl acetal, partially hydrolysed cellulose ester, or partially hydrolysed polyvinyl acetate, which layers may contain a silver image.  The substance may be applied to the film by spraying, immersion, or squeegeeing.  The film may be given a preliminary treatment with a basic substance so that the reaction takes place more completely and rapidly.  Examples describe the treatment of exposed and processed films with cellulose acetate-propionate, cellulose nitrate, and cellulose acetate supports with a carbon tetrachloride solution of palmityl chloride with and without pre-treatment in aqueous sodium carbonate solution. Specification 270,347, [Class 2 (ii)], is referred to.

Title: Improvements relating to fuzes for projectiles
IPC: F42C5/00
Filed: 1953-02-19
Abstract: 730,323. Projectile fuzes. AKTIEBOLAGET BOFORS. Feb. 19, 1953 [March 17, 1952], No. 4661/53. Class 9(1). Fuze for projectiles fired from air into water has a domed cap 1 seated on a flange 2 of the two-part tube 3, 4 closed by a member 5 from which projects two coaxial sleeves 6, 7. The flange 2, tube part 4 and sleeve 7 may be formed in one piece. The annular chamber within the cap surrounding the sleeve 7 and tube 4 communicates with the exterior of the fuze through a passage 9 which has a groove 10 to receive a protective plate. Alternatively a plug may be screwed into the passage. Leading from the chamber towards the rear of the projectile is a channel or channels 11. A sealing disc 12, preferably of phosphor bronze, is held in the sleeve 7 by a closure plate 13 through which extend holes 14, 15. Extending through the member 5 is a rod 16 held in position by a transverse pin 17 and provided with a conical part 8 engaged in a conical liner 19 of the sleeve 6. The liner 19 may be of lead or may be omitted, the internal surface of the sleeve 6 theu being given a conical shape. To the rod 18 is secured a plate 20 with diameter approaching the internal diameter of the sleeve 7. In use, the protective plate is removed immediately before firing the projectile. As the projectile passes from air into water, the air in the annular chamber is pushed out through channels 11 by water entering the passage 9. Hydrostatic pressure on plate 20 through openings 14, 15 forces the rod 16 inwards shearing the pin 17 and rupturing the disc 12, the parts 18, 19 being brought into engagement to prevent water entering the projectile. Instead of the shear pin 17 the rod may be held by a spring. Specification 730,324 is referred to.
