Title: Improvements in or relating to rotatable structures
IPC: E04B1/346
Filed: 1931-03-26
Abstract: 375,402. Huts. ALWAY, A. E., Burlinghame, and PEARCE, C. A., Hopecott, both in Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire. March 26, 1931, No. 9203. [Class 20 (i).] A rotary hut of the type provided with a wind vane for the purpose of keeping the structure in the same position relatively to the wind, has means whereby the position of the vane may be adjusted in relation to the hut. The hut is built in two halves complete with sides, roof and floor, the middle sides 8 abutting on the centre line at which a pedestal is mounted to carry the hut which is supported by stays 4 from a flange 22 rotatably mounted on the pedestal. The floor 6 carries a ball or roller bearing 18 surrounding the pedestal. Air chambers 9 fitted with cowls 10 are positioned within the hut and the cowls may be adjusted by gearing (not shown) from the centre pedestal. Lavatory and latrine accommodation is also supplied separated by doors 12 in partitions 11 from the main hut portions to which access is provided by a ladder 13. The pedestal is carried by foundation fittings 15, 16 and the hut is supported by the flange 22 of a sleeve mounted by ball bearings 20, 23 on the pedestal. The vane 31 is loosely mounted on the sleeve and has fixed to its lower end surrounding the sleeve a gear wheel 28 connected by a belt 30a with gear wheels 29 and a jockey pulley 30 fixed to the roof of the hut, the gears 29 having extension spindles projecting within the hut so that the position of the hut with respect to the vane may be adjusted by hand.

Title: Improvements relating to automatic-feed weighing apparatus
Inventor: BACHE JOHN KENNETH
IPC: G01G13/00
Filed: 1960-03-18
Abstract: 917,267. Weighing-apparatus. SALTER & CO. Ltd., GEORGE. Jan. 18, 1961 [March 18, 1960], No. 9577/60. Class 143. An automatic feed weigher comprises a tiltable weighing receptacle balanced so as to be tail-heavy when empty but nose-heavy when loaded above a predetermined amount and held by a catch, and a cut-off device controlling the flow of material to the receptacle, a single solenoid, energized at a predetermined load, operating, first to operate the cut-off device to stop the flow of material and then to trip the catch. The weighing receptacle 1 is fed from a hopper 6 and the load-responsive member 4 of the weighing machine 5 descends until a microswitch 25 is closed and a solenoid 18 is thereby energized and its core 21 rises. Consequently a slide 29 is operated, through a bell crank 27, to cut off the feed; also, a nut 24 on the core strikes an arm 14<SP>1</SP> projecting from a catch 14 which is thus moved out of engagement with a projection 17 on the corner of the receptacle 1 which consequently tilts about its pivot 2, the weight of its contents overcoming a counterweight 10, and its front wall 8 swings open.

Title: Improvements in or relating to range finders
IPC: G01C3/12
Filed: 1942-07-13
Abstract: 581,765. Range-finders. KODAK Ltd. July 13, 1942, No. 9738. Convention date, July 18, 1941. [Class 97 (i)] A range-finder comprises a single objective, having an axis which is stationary at its image plane, means for continuously moving the effective view-point of the instrument along a path having a constant radius, and optical deflecting means in the light path through the instrument such deflecting means being adjustable to bring the image of the object ranged on into the axis of the objective ; when the stationary part of the objective axis is directed to the object ranged on, and the deflecting means is adjusted so that the image of such object is on the axis throughout the movement of the view point, the image of this object appears to be stationary while the images of all other objects are in movement, and the setting of the adjusting means when this condition exists provides an indication of the range of the object. Fig. 3 shows an objective 42 producing an image which is viewed by means of a roof prism 41 and eyepiece 40. The objective 42 is mounted coaxially in a tube 43 which is rotatable in bearings 47, 48, and carries a rotor 44 forming a housing for a prism having a periscopic combination of reflecting surfaces 45, 46. The rotor 44 may be turned by hand or by a motor, and produces a repetitive circular variation in the effective view point of the instrument. The instrument is directed with the rotation axis towards the object to be ranged upon, and the image of the object is brought to the rotation axis by deflecting means comprising an achromatic or other optical wedge 55 carried by a sleeve 56 constrained to turn with the tube 43 and axially slidable therein. The sleeve 56 is pressed by a spring 59 and is connected by a pin 57 to a collar 60 slidable outside the tube by a drum 67 engaging it through ball bearings 61.. The drum 67 is rotatable on a screw thread 64 and carries on its outermost surface a spiral scale readable against a fixed mark to indicate range. An optical wedge 72 before the reflector 46 enables infinity and other adjustments to be effected. The objective 42 may be located between the reflecting surfaces 45, 46 or in front of the surface 46. Several constructional forms of instrument embodying, in some cases, other light-deflecting means, a non- rotating objective and an eyepiece for reading the range scale, are described. In one construction the objective is combined with a wedge and is displaceable from the rotation axis for light-deflecting purposes. Specification 484,172 is referred to.

Title: Process for dyeing cellulosic textile materials
IPC: D06P3/68
Filed: 1958-03-27
Abstract: Natural or artificial cellulosic textile materials are dyed or printed by applying, locally or otherwise, a diazotisable amine or a coupling component which is preferably soluble in water and contains an acryloylamino- or a b -halopropionylamino-group, then applying heat in the presence of an inorganic acid-binding agent to effect reaction with the cellulose, and finally diazotising and coupling with a coupling component, or applying a diazo component, and effecting coupling.  Lists of suitable diazotisable amines and coupling components are given.  The acid-binding agent, e.g., alkali metal hydroxides, carbonates, phosphates, borates or perborates, may be applied in the impregnating solution or printing paste, or may be separately applied.  Instead of an acid-binding agent, a compound yielding such an agent on heating may be employed.  The impregnating solution or printing paste may also contain inorganic salts, such as an alkali metal chloride or sulphate, urea and a thickener, such as an alkyl cellulose, tragacanth, or an alginate.  Examples of dyeing are given. Specification 892,706 is referred to.

Title: Tube compensator for compensating the length variation of pipelines
Inventor: MARTI WILHELM
IPC: F16L51/02
Filed: 1984-07-16
Abstract: A first sleeve is connected to a second sleeve by means of a bellows. Brackets are arranged at the mutual circumferential distance along the circumferences of the sleeves which brackets are welded to the first sleeve at an end section thereof. The opposite end section of the brackets rest slidingly on the second sleeve. A clamping ring extends around the second end sections of the brackets at an inclined surface area thereof. This clamping ring is pushed onto these inclined surfaces and urges the end sections of the brackets against the second sleeve. The limiting of the stroke of the compensator is provided by circumferential rings welded to the second sleeve. The relative rotation blocking means is an elongated profile member which is welded onto the second sleeve and contacts a respective bracket. These brackets replace the hitherto known tube sections installed for a mutual guiding of the two sleeves, can be manufactured quite cheaply because due to this improved design only small demands relative to dimensional tolerances must be made.

Title: Process for producing protease-defective gram-positive bacteria and utilizing them as host-organizmus for producing recombinant products
Inventor: BLACKBURN PETER
IPC: C12Q1/689
Filed: 1989-03-14
Abstract: The residual protease activity in AP<->/NP<-> strains of Bacillus is due to two additional proteases, a residual serine protease (RSP) and a sulfhydryl-dependent residual cysteine protease (RCP), which together account for the degradation of recombinant proteins in cultures of B. subtilis (AP<->/NP<->). An analysis has been developed which allows for the identification and development of mutant strains of B. subtilis which are deficient in not only the neutral and alkaline proteases, but also in one or both of the residual proteases. These strains are highly suitable for use as host organisms for the production of heterologous proteins which are susceptible to the activity of the residual proteases.
