Title: Improvements in or relating to clips for fuses
IPC: H01H85/20
Filed: 1959-03-19
Abstract: 878,023. Fuse contacts. SQUARE D CO. March 19, 1959 [July 28, 1958], No. 9509/59. Class 38 (5). [Also in Group XXXVI] A clip for a fuse of cylindrical type is constructed from a strip of metal formed to comprise a base portion with a pair of gripping arms projecting from the base portion, each gripping arm having a curved surface for maintaining a fuse in position in parallel relationship with the plane of the base portion and having means at the outer end thereof for securely maintaining the fuse in a position such that circuit interruption is effected and accidental closing of the circuit associated with the fuse is prevented. As shown, the arms 14, 16 of a clip which may be of beryllium copper have curved portions 18 for engaging a cylindrical fuse to maintain the fuse in a horizontal position, and openings 26 formed in the portions 18 permit a substantial portion of the material of the clip which surrounds the openings 26 to embrace the curved surface of a fuse when placed in a vertical position in the fuse clip; the fuse is thus securely maintained in a vertical position. Inwardly bent portions 28 on each of the arms 14, 16 maintain the fuse against horizontal movement in the clip and also aid in maintaining the fuse in the vertical position. The openings 26 may be replaced by a pair of vertically extending spaced raised ribs to maintain the fuse in the vertical position.

Title: Improvements relating to starter control devices for split-phase electric motors
IPC: H01H61/00
Filed: 1958-03-25
Abstract: 818,580. Control of A.C. motors; electromagnetic switches; thermal switches. GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION. March 25, 1958 [April 8, 1957], No. 9537/58. Classes 38 (3) and 38 (5). A starting device for split-phase motors, enabling motors of different characteristics to be operated satisfactorily over a wide range of supply voltages, comprises an electromagnet having its coil 48 connected in series with the main winding 70 of the motor, a bar armature 56 mounted alongside the electromagnet by a spring hinge 54, and a contact-spring 58 adapted to close the circuit of the phase winding 68 of the motor. The spring 58 is biased to the closed position but is kept in the open position by the spring-force of the armature until the latter is attracted, the member 58 being joined to a, portion 78 of a bimetallic strip 24 which also has an extension 76 adapted to be deformed by the phase winding current and to apply to the member 58 a force which adds to the spring- force of the armature. This arrangement allows satisfactory operation, even at low voltages. The portion 78 is not substantially heated by current-flow but compensates for the effect of ambient temperature upon the extension 76. If the armature 56 is not released with a normal decrease in main winding current, the extension 76 continues to bow towards the right until the starting contacts 58, 62 are opened before the overload contacts 34, 40 are tripped. In a modification, the spring contact is formed of a single bimetallic strip 124 having offset portions 127, 131, and a movable contact 133 spring- ,biased to engage contact 62. The offset portions are electrically insulated from each other so that the phase winding current normally flows through the leg 129. If current-flow through this leg is prolonged, contact 133 is disengaged from contact 62 and the leg is bowed until it engages a stop.

Title: Improvements in or relating to steam boilers
IPC: F22G5/02
Filed: 1962-03-13
Abstract: 998,605. Regulating steam temperature in boilers. RILEY STOKER CORPORATION. March 13, 1962 [March 16, 1961], No. 9571/62. Heading F4A. In the steam generating unit illustrated control of superheated steam temperature at low loads is effected by preventing the supply of fuel and combustion air to at least one and preferably alternate burners and using this or these burner openings for the introduction of regulated quantities of re-circulated gas. At a suitable value of steam load a control means 49 acts to close a fuel supply valve 111 in the line 109 which feeds the opposed burners 26, 27 located on the lower surfaces of abutments 19, 23 in the front and rear walls of the furnace chamber 17. Simultaneously, slide valves 97, 103 in the combustion air ducts to these burners are closed and slide valves 93, 106 opened allowing re-circulated gas from the ducts 61, 62 to enter the furnace through the burner openings. Adjustable vanes in the burner openings direct the re-circulated gases upwardly to give a blanketing effect and thus to prevent overheating and slagging of the water-tubes. The position of a damper 66 in the re-circulated gas duct 65 is controlled by the control means 49 to regulate the volume of gases re-circulated and thus to regulate the superheated steam temperature. Final control of the superheated steam temperature is effected by a spray desuperheater 116.

Title: An Improved Artillery Clock Code Translation Apparatus, and Method of Using same.
Inventor: POWER RICHARD FITZ
IPC: G09B29/00
Filed: 1917-07-05
Abstract: 128,264. Power, R. F., and Hughes, H. A. July 5, 1917. Computing - scales and calculating - apparatus. - Relates to a clock-code disk for use in signalling the position of shell bursts with reference to a target, or for instructing aerial observers or artillery officers by means of the model range described in Specification 125,627, [Class 119, Smallarms]. The device is constructed as a transparent disk a, Fig. 1, with hour lines and circles and is weighted as at b so that when suspended about a central horizontal pivot the 12-6 o'clock line takes up a vertical position. If the device is attached to a map k, Fig. 3, having its north and south line vertical, the 12-6 o'clock line will always be parallel to the north and south line. The disk may be used with a transparent ranging-sector l, Fig. 3, the pivot of the disk passing through a slot o in the zero line of the sector. The artillery officer thus at once translates the point signalled by the aerial observer in the usual way into alterations in range and angle by noting the intersection on the sector covered by the clock-code intersection signalled by the observer. The officer may also ascertain the position of each burst by noting the point on the map covered by the intersection signalled. The disk may be used for instructional purposes in conjunction with the model range described in the above-mentioned Specification, either when training aerial observers to indicate to the instructor the location of a second target relative to the first target, or when training ground artillery officers, in which case it may be used with a transparent ranging sector such as l, Fig. 3, on a vertical map.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the polymerisation of derivatives of unsaturated organic acids
IPC: C08F20/42
Filed: 1934-03-28
Abstract: In the polymerization of the nitriles of acrylic acid or its a -alkyl substituted homologues or mixtures thereof, products of enhanced purity of colour are obtained by treating the monomeric nitrile, which may contain if desired other polymerizable organic bodies or known polymer plasticizers, with an oxidizing agent prior to polymerization.  Suitable oxidizing agents are the oxyacids of manganese (manganic or permanganic acid) or their salts.  The oxidizing agents may be employed in concentrations of \baN/5\be to \baN/10\be and in amounts corresponding to from 0,01 to 0,05 gram equivalents of oxygen per gram molecule of nitrile.  Manganates or permanganates may be used in acid, neutral or alkaline solution, but preferably in the presence of at least enough acid to combine with the alkali resulting from the reduction of the oxidizing agent.  The subsequent polymerization may be effected by any known method, but the process is particularly applicable in the case of polymerization by organic peroxides.  The products are suitable for use as celluloid substitutes, for moulding purposes and for the manufacture of safety glass.  In an example, methacrylonitrile is treated with \baN/10\be potassium permanganate acidified with sulphuric acid, the precipitated manganese dioxide is dissolved by addition of sodium bisulphite and the nitrile is separated from the aqueous layer, washed, dried, distilled in the presence of tannic acid and polymerized by heating in the presence of benzoyl or succinyl peroxide.  The product may be used for machining, e.g. for making cigarette holders or umbrella handles, or may be hot-rolled into sheets for subsequent stamping, pressing, or cutting.

Title: Improvement in echo ranging apparatus
IPC: G01S15/02
Filed: 1948-04-08
Abstract: 655,196. Echo sounding and distancemeasuring apparatus. BENDIX AVIATION CORPORATION. April 8, 1948, No. 9902. Convention date, April 25, 1947. [Class 118 (ii)] Relates to pulse echo ranging systems comprising an electric oscillator permanently coupled to an electro-mechanical transducer and to the input of an amplifier whose output is coupled to a recorder or indicator having recording or indicating means moving along a path at a predetermined rate. According to the present invention synchronous switch means are provided for periodically and momentarily actuating the oscillator and simultaneously short circuiting the input circuit of the amplifier to prevent it being overloaded by the transmitted pulse. As shown, a series fed Hartley oscillator 1 comprising a tetrode 8, tank circuit 14, 15 and an inductive anode load 20 is coupled by a condenser 26 to an electromechanical transducer 3, e.g. a piezo-electric crystal, a condenser 81 and inductance 82 being shunted across the transducer input to neutralize the reactance of the transducer. The transducer is also coupled through condenser 27 to a tapping 31 on a parallel tuned circuit 29, 30 shunted across an amplifier 2 whose output is fed to a stylus arm 6 which rotates at constant speed over a moving record strip 7 as described in Specification 608,513. The oscillator 1 is periodically actuated for a short period each time the stylus crosses the top of the record paper by earthing the lower end of the tank circuit 14, 15 through contact 19 of switch 5 which is operated by a rotating cam 49 geared to the rotating stylus and in order to prevent the recept of the transmitted pulse by the amplifier 2, the amplifier input is earthed through contact 34 of switch 5, a record 7a of the transmitted pulse being produced by leakage coupling between the oscillator and the stylus. The capacity of condenser 27 is arranged to be low compared with the combined capacity of transducer 3 and condenser 81 so that earthing the amplifier input has little detuning or shunting effect on the transducer during transmission. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown), the tuned circuit 29, 30 is replaced by a # network having an equivalent electrical length of #/4. Suitable component values are given for operation at 50 kc/s.
