Patent GB-1442644-A (GB)
Title: Electrical connector
IPC: H01R43/00
Filed: 1973-12-04
Abstract: 1442644 Connector TRW Inc 4 Dec 1973 [4 Dec 1972] 56087/73 Heading H2E To facilitate entry of a pair of insulated conductor ends into a crimpable connector, W- shaped plastics film strip liner 8 is inserted inside known oval or ellipitical section toothed spring-metal inner sleeve 2, itself surrounded tightly by soft metal blind outer sleeve 4. Outer wings of strip 8 are trapped by heat-shrunk plastics jacket 6, and held taut by teeth 20. Alternatively a turned back tubular film element may be fitted. Jacket 6 on shrinking constricts 40 below sleeve 4 but forms flared entry (44, Fig. 3, not shown) above the mouth of sleeve 4. On crimping, teeth 20 penetrate both film 8 and wire insulation, biting into conductors to make contact and grip mechanically. To produce connectors automatically (Fig. 7), unshrunk jacket 68 is placed over spatulate pin 62 at first position A of indexing dies 56 on platen 54. Film strip 70 for the liners is held taut over positions B and C; at position C an assembled metal sleeve, i.e. parts 2 and 4, held in a chuck (not shown) is pushed down over pin 62, forming the film into a W. The chuck then releases and is withdrawn. After the die indexes to D, unrolling the film, a plunger (not shown) forces the sleeve fully down and simultaneously an attached knife cuts the left limb of the film, leaving the roll set for the next connector. Finally at E, and at subsequent stations if necessary for timing, the jacket 6 is shrunk in oven 72, the conical pin base 60 forming the flared entry (44).
Patent GB-1370658-A (GB)
Title: Control of pneumatic steelmaking process
IPC: C21C5/30
Filed: 1972-11-30
Abstract: 1370658 Controlling oxygen steelmaking BRITISH STEEL CORP 30 Nov 1972 [3 Dec 1971] 56283/71 Heading C7D The carbon dioxide content of the waste gases is continuously monitored and blowing is terminated at a time interval, characteristic of the steel, after the CO 2  content reaches a pre-determined value. The process is particularly applicable to manufacture of stainless steels in an arc furnace, when chromium loss by oxidation is minimized; in such a process the time interval is measured from the instant when the CO 2  content of the gases falls to the level which exists when the charge is fully molten but before oxygen blowing is started. Refining may be carried out either in the melting furnace or in a separate vessel. As particularly exemplified, a stainless steel charge melted in furnace 3 is blown with oxygen through lance 6; a copper tube 8 withdraws a gas sample which is cleaned and dried before passing to infrared analyser. The output of the latter is in the form of a continuous electrical signal supplied to recorder 10 which provides compensation for the delay time of the analyser and provides a display of CO 2  content against time. Rate of oxygen supply is also recorded.

Patent GB-1112800-A (GB)
Title: An installation and a method for producing elongate wood members
IPC: B27M3/00
Filed: 1966-12-22
Abstract: 1,112,800. Woodworking. KOPPERS CO. Inc. 22 Dec., 1966 [10 June, 1966], No. 57564/66. Heading B5L. A method of producing an elongate wood member from a plurality of individual wood sections having finger joints at their end portions, comprises applying adhesive to each of the end portions, feeding a first and a second mated section into an adhesive curing machine while supporting a third section for mating with the trailing end of the second section, curing the joint between the first and second sections, advancing the joined first and second sections, releasing the third supported section and advancing it into matching relation with the trailing end of the second section before the trailing end enters the curing machine, and repeating the cycle to produce an elongate wood member of desired length. In apparatus for carrying out the method, the wood sections 19, Fig. 1, are transferred from a table 18 to a conveyer 21 on which they are carried past a finger joint cutter 13. From conveyer 21 they travel along conveyer 17 to conveyer 23 which carries the sections past finger joint cutter 15 so that both ends of the sections are formed with finger joints. Each section is then supplied with adhesive from an applicator 27 which consists of a roller assembly 41, Fig. 3, along which a section can be moved in the direction arrow M. When the section activates a switch 67, a cylinder 61 pivots an arm 53 upwardly about a pivot 55 so that an applicator 59 is raised from a container of adhesive 51 which is thus applied to the finger joint at that end of the section. The section can be moved in the direction of arrow N for application of adhesive to its other end from a second applicator. The sections are thereafter placed on a transfer table 29 having rollers 71, Fig. 2, for transfer to a feeder 31 having groups of rolls 77, each of which may be driven from a motor 84. Abutments 87, 89 may be adjusted to the width of the sections and fixed by pins 101, 111 engaging rails 103, 105, and the abutments 87 have recesses for supports 91 consisting of extensions of rods 95 of cylinders 97 controlled by a plate switch 67. The high frequency adhesive curing machine 35 has an adjustable gate 33 and its feed rollers are driven at a third of the speed of the rolls 77. With one section 19a in the curing machine, as the end of that section leaves the switch plate 67, the switch activates cylinders 97 to retract the support rods 91 so that the supported section 19 drops on to the rolls 77 which rapidly convey the section so that its leaving end engages the trailing end of section 19a, the section 19 actuating the switch plate to cause extension of rods 91 for support of the next section. After curing, the joined sections are received on a table 39 which has an adjustable device which, when engaged by the leading end of the joined sections, stops the feed and causes raising of a saw 37 for cutting the desired length of joined section. Pivoted arms are then movable to eject the cut length transversely of the table.
