Abstract: 1,095,995. Valves. S. SMITH & SONS (ENGLAND) Ltd. July 31, 1964 [Aug. 13, 1963], No. 31997/63. Heading F2V. In the positions shown an inlet 11 is open to an inlet 14 via an annulus between an opening 17 through a spring-loaded valve-closure 16 and the tapered portion of a rod 24. Upward motion of a lever 36 lifts the rod 24 until a disc 42 abuts and then unseats the closure 16 to provide a main flow between the inlet and outlet. Downward movement of the lever and hence the rod 24 results in seating of the closure 16 whilst further movement in the same direction gradually reduces the area of the annulus until the opening 17 is sealed by a rubber sleeve 19 on the rod. The opening 17 may be conical. The closure 16 is encased in rubber 18 and the rod 24 is attached to a diaphragm 29 the periphery of which is secured to the valve body.

Title: Operation of polyamide continuous polymerization system
IPC: C08G69/04
Filed: 1971-07-08
Abstract: 1359708 Continuously making polyamides FIBER INDUSTRIES Inc 8 July 1971 [8 July 1970] 32097/71 Heading C3R In a continuous process wherein polyamide forming reactant(s) are polymerized under heat and pressure while flowing in two-phase annular flow, associated with steam, through a tubular reactor, the process is started-up by maintaining an inert oxygen-free blanket through the reactor while heating the reactor from ambient to polymerization temp.; then flowing the reactants through the reactor; and eventually shutting-down the reactor by stopping the flow of reactants thereto, and then continuously flowing an inert oxygen-free cooling medium through the reactor until temp. <50‹ C. The blanket may be water or steam; the cooling medium may be water. The shut-down may be conducted by: stopping the reactant flow; flowing a reactant / chain - stopper mixture through under pressure to form low M.W. polymer to flush high M.W. polymer from the reactor; flowing a chain-stopper/water mixture, e.g. under pressure, to flush out low M.W. polymer; and cutting heat and flowing cooling- water. The chain-stopper may be n-propylamine, n-butylamine or acetic or propionic acid. The polymer may be Nylon 6 or 66, or other specified polyamides. The reactants may be in aqueous dispersion or solution. "Two-phase annular flow" means that the molten polymer flows as an annular along the inner surface of the tube, while the evolved steam rushes through the centre of the tube cross-section toward the outlet at a much higher velocity than the polymer. The process decreases polymer degradation and obviates a gel-like incrustation on the inner surface of the reactor. Specification 924,630 is referred to.

[Also in Group XXX] An installation for washing containers, comprises a conveyer with means for effecting regular stepwise movement thereof, the conveyer incorporating locating means 6 for inverted containers, and passing through a succession of washing stages spaced so that the locating means will halt at the stages in turn, there being provided at a plurality of stages independently vertically reciprocable liquid injector tubes 11 and means 10 for effecting reciprocation of the tubes into and out of the containers with a predetermined pause in an elevated position in synchronism with the conveyer, with control mechanism responsive to the presence of a container to prevent the elevation of a tube 11 if no container is in the locating means thereover, and means for feeding pressurised liquid to the injector tubes when elevated. At successive stages the containers within the washing tunnel 8 may be rinsed, drained, washed with detergent, rinsed and drained, operations being controlled pneumatically and with sensing means at each stage where liquid is injected to prevent the operation of the injector in the absence of a container. Movement of the conveyer is effected by a pneumatic ram acting in synchronism with pneumatic loading device 5. In an alternative embodiment, not shown, loading device 5 is replaced with an inverter loader similar to inverter unloader 15, the containers then being originally placed upright on conveyer 1.

[A Specification was laid open to inspection under Sect. 91 of the Acts, Nov. 28, 1945.] [Class 145 (i)] A method of shaping the abutting edges of workpieces used in the construction of wooden boats comprises bending a flexible and twistable guide plate 25 in one plane to the curvature which it is desired to give to the workpiece, clamping it to the workpiece 1 at spaced points, wedge-shaped pieces 24 of varying angles being interposed between the workpiece and the guide plate at these points so that the guide plate is twisted, and then feeding the guide plate past a planer 35, the twisted plane and curved edge of the guide plate being kept in contact with guides fixed relatively to the planer, so that the workpiece is brought into contact with the planer at the correct angle and position to give it the desired shape. The guide plate 25 consists of a number of laths 3 held together by nuts and bolts 8 passing through slots 11 which are elongated so that the guide plate may be bent in the plane of Fig. 2 and clamped in that position. A number of recesses 14 in the guide plate receive clamps 26 which clamp the guide plate to the workpiece 1 and wedges 24. The planer 35 is rotatably mounted on a shaft 34 which also carries a roller 36 of the same diameter as the planer 35 and serving as a guide for the curved edge of the guide plate. A narrow table or plank 33 at right angles to the shaft 34 guides the twisted plane of the guide plate. Specification 526,573, [Group XXXIII], is referred to.
