Title: Improvements in and relating to stud and socket fasteners
Inventor: SECKERSON CLIFFORD ALEXANDER
IPC: F16B19/10
Filed: 1962-11-12
Abstract: 976,418. Stud and socket fastenings. F. T. PRODUCTS Ltd. Oct. 17, 1963 [Nov. 1962; May 3, 1963], Nos. 42690/62 and 17605/63. Heading E2B. A fastener, e.g. moulded from synthetic resin, has a socket 32 with an end flange 41 joined by a flexible strap 46 to the head 33 of a stud 31 which has a stem 34 insertable in the socket 32 to expand it, the strap 46 being of a length to permit this. The socket shank may be split into tongues with inturned or thickened ends to form a restriction, Figs. 2, 4 (not shown), for expansion, the stud stem, Figs. 1, 3 (not shown), being solid or tubular with an end closed by an inserted core. As shown the socket shank 40, Fig. 5, is unsplit but has a restriction formed by opposed flat-faced ribs 42, 43, Fig. 6, and the stud stem has two complementary flats 37, Fig. 5, so that the stud may be inserted in the socket (as shown in Fig. 12) before securing a panel 47 on a radio cabinet 47 by turning the stud 31 through a right angle by means of a screwdriver slot 39 in its head to spread the ribbed end of the socket. A flat edge 45 on the end flange 41 of the socket 32, abuts a face of a rebate in the cabinet edge, Fig. 10 (not shown), to prevent the socket turning. The socket 32 is anchored by friction in a hole 50 in the cabinet to be retained when the stud and panel are withdrawn.

Title: An inking mechanism for use with rotary printing machines
IPC: B41F31/00
Filed: 1961-12-04
Abstract: 960,076. Inking mechanism. MASCHINENFABRIK AUGSBURG - NURNBERG A.G. Dec. 4, 1961 [Dec. 3, 1960], No. 43303/61. Heading B6C.  An inking mechanism for the rotationally reversible plate cylinder 2 of a rotary press is arranged so that the greater part of the ink from the fountain 6 is applied by the forme roller 9 or 7 first contacting the cylinder in its rotation after impression regardless of the angular direction of this rotation. The rollers of the fountain 6, which comprises a pump-type inking system, and a supply roller 5 rotate unidirectionally and intermediate rollers 11, 12 are so mounted adjacent the roller 5 that on clockwise rotation of the cylinder 2 the roller 12 may be moved to simultaneously contact the roller 5 and a distributer roller 4 such that more ink is supplied to the cylinder via the roller 9 than is supplied via rollers 10, 3, 8 and 7. During anticlockwise rotation of the cylinder 2 the greater amount of ink passes to the cylinder via rollers 11, 3 and 7, the roller 12 in this instance being withdrawn from engagement with the rollers 5 and 4. As will be seen from the drawing the greater amount of ink in each case is conducted from either the roller 12 or roller 10 over the shorter path and thus reaches the cylinder first. The rollers 11 and 12 may each be mounted on an angularly displaceable lever for movement into and out of their inktransmitting, i.e. operative, position. As an alternative, however, only one intermediate roller, e.g. the roller 11, may be used in addition to the roller 10 and may then be arranged for positioning either in rolling contact with the rollers 5 and 10 or in rolling contact with the rollers 4 and 5.

Title: Method of replacing a damaged frame-head of a vehicle
IPC: B25B11/00
Filed: 1963-11-11
Abstract: 985,730. Repairing vehicles. BORGS FABRIK A.B. Nov. 11, 1963 [July 17, 1963], No. 44386/63. Heading B3A. A method of replacing a damaged frame-head of a vehicle, in which the head connects the front axle part with the base-plate, comprises removing the axle part from the base-plate in position on the vehicle, cutting away the damaged head and mounting a jig beneath the base-plate and fixed within relation to the rear axle part and to the plate front part so that it permits mounting of a new head in correct alignment with the plate and to the front axle whereby the head is secured to the plate, for example, by welding. The jig, Fig. 1, comprises a frame having a member 3 to which are attached uprights 7, 8 by which it is secured to the rear axle, vertical and lateral base-plate location members 10, 11, 15, 16 and members 17, 18 having recesses 19, 20 into which are located the axle tubes 21, 22 or the tubes 26, 27 of a holding device, Fig. 4. The tube 27 is approximately the same length as the member 3 and has centring holes 36 to facilitate positioning thereof in relation to the member 3. In use, the holding device is fitted via its tubes into the recesses 19, 20 of the jig, the flanges 32, 33 and 34, 35 of the tubes bearing on the outside faces of the plates 17, 18, and acting as lateral guides respectively and the jig assembly, after removal of the damaged parts of the vehicle, secured in alignment to the base-plate. The frame-head portion 25 is then secured by screws to the location members 28, 29 coupling the tubes 26, 27 and the head welded in its correct position to the base-plate. Subsequently the jig and holding devices are removed and the new front axle part secured to the frame-head by members 30, 31. Alternatively the front axle part may be mounted directly by the tubes 21, 22 on the jig and the frame-head 25 secured prior to welding to the fastening members 30, 31.

Title: Improvements in or relating to data transfer systems
Inventor: MILLS WALTER CHARLES
IPC: H03M13/27
Filed: 1967-09-29
Abstract: 1,223,863. Digital transmission systems. MARCONI CO. Ltd. 27 June, 1968 [29 Sept., 1967], No. 44453/67. Heading H4P. To reduce the effects of error bursts on any one character in a series of characters to be transmitted the bits forming the characters are interleaved prior to transmission. In the case of a series of p characters each having n bits, a series of n groups of bits is transmitted, each group consisting of p bits. p/n or n/p is an integral number. Each bit in a group is a bit selected from a different one of the p characters, and each selected bit is of different order from all the others. Thus if the series of characters is A, B, C ... J (i.e. p = 10) and there are 10 bits/character (i.e. n = 10) one or the groups transmitted consists of the bits J1, I2, H3, G4, F5, E6, D7, C8, B9, A10. Bits forming adjacent groups are taken from different overlapping series of characters. Transmitter.-The series of characters is fed to a continuously stepping shift register having a little less than pn stages. The output from certain of the stages, regularly spaced along the register, are sequentially gated to a bi-stable which delivers the interleaved bits to the transmission channel. Receiver.-The circuit is identical to that at the transmitter except that the selected stages of the register are gated in the reverse order, the bi-stable then delivering the original series of characters.
