Abstract: 1,255,713. Feeding and loading record tapes. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP. 1 Oct., 1969 [10 Oct., 1968], No. 48217/69. Heading G5R. A tape is wound on or off a supply reel 42 by an endless drive belt 20 engaging the tape on the reel, the reel being released from the belt (to allow removal) by the insertion of a resilient band 40 between the belt and the tape on the reel so that both the band 40 and the belt 20 lie outside the periphery of the reel. As shown, the band 40 of strip spring material is normally coiled in a container 110 and is pulled to its operative position round a guide 120 by clockwise rotation of an arm 112, displacing a pivoted tape stripper 80 on the way. The arm 112 may be motor driven, together with a hatch (134, Fig. 5) giving access to the supply reel. The take-up reel 56 may have one of its flanges (86, Fig. 4) resiliently mounted so as to be tiltable to admit a wide leader 46 to grooves (91, 92) in the flanges.

Abstract: 1,184,662. Endless conveyers. IMPERIAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES Ltd. 18 Oct., 1967 [2 Nov., 1966], No. 49082/66. Heading B8A. Articles (not shown) are discharged from a conveyer belt by an arm 1 after a predetermined interval from being detected by radiation means (not shown). The latter feeds in an electrical pulse at 22, 23. This develops with delay a pulse in a coil 9, and with greater delay, a pulse in a coil 11. The coil-9-pulse actuates a fluid valve 7 which actuates a fluid valve 5 to cause extension of fluid cylinder and piston device 4. The coil-13-pulse similarly results in a valve 6 applying fluid pressure to the other end of the device 4. This cushions the end of the extension stroke and brings about the discharging movement of the arm 1.

Title: Proximity switch
IPC: H03K17/95
Filed: 1974-11-22
Abstract: 1531217 Proximity switching systems SQUARE D CO 31 Oct 1975 [22 Nov 1974] 50629/74 Heading G1N A proximity switch actuated by the presence of a metallic object to connect a load to a supply and which is energized from the same supply includes energy storage means for supplying the switch during the time it is actuated. A load 10 such as a motor or counter is connected in series with A.C. supply 11 through proximity switch 15 which is actuated when a metallic object is in a predetermined position relative to coil 51 of oscillator 50. In the absence of the object oscillations from the oscillator are coupled via capacitor 53 to the base of transistor 41 so that the latter is rendered conducting during positive half cycles to provide a discharge path for capacitor 45. As a result SCR 31 remains non-conducting and supply 11  remains unconnected from load 10. When a metallic object approaches coil 51 the oscillations are damped and transistor 41 remains cut off. Capacitor 45 thus continues to charge through resistor 42 until it reaches the breakdown threshold of diode 46 when the latter breaks down and capacitor 45 discharges through the gate of SCR 31 to switch the latter on and connect the supply through rectifier 20 to load 10. Since the supply to the proximity switch 15 is now shunted through the SCR in order to keep the circuit energized a storage capacitor 75 is connected as shown which charges up during the period that the SCR is non-conducting and supplies the circuit when the SCR conducts. In order to prevent the SCR being switched on during the initial energization of the switch transistor 64 is connected to the base of transistor 41. When the supply is first switched on transistor 64 is non-conducting and the bias on transistor 41 is such that this transistor remains conducting and cannot switch off in response to decreases in the oscillator output. When the charge on capacitor 66 reaches a predetermined level transistor 64 is rendered conducting and the bias on the base of transistor 41 is such that this transistor may be switched on by the positive cycles of the oscillations and off when these decrease. The characteristics of circuit 40 are such that the SCR turns on only after the positive voltage in any half cycle of the supply reaches a minimum value to make capacitor 75 to have charged to a sufficient level. LED 81 lights when SCR 31 is fired.

In an hydraulic disc brake having a brake pad assembly 8 to which braking force is applied by a piston 5 to urge the pad 9 against a face of a disc 7, the piston has a recess 12 and a block of heat-resisting material 16 is disposed within the recess, the block standing proud of the front face of the piston in the off position of the brake so as to engage the backing plate 10 of the pad assembly and reduce heat transference from the pad assembly to the piston. Preferably the block is of resilient material so that when the brake is applied it is compressed, a space 17 being arranged to accommodate the block when compressed so that under high braking pressure the annular face 14 of the piston contacts the backing plate 10. The block may alternatively be rigid in which case the face of the piston remains separated from the backing plate 10 by the distance a, resulting in minimum heat transference. The brake preferably comprises a pair of opposed cylinders 3, each containing a piston 5, the pistons applying a pair of pads 9 to the opposite faces of the disc.

[Also in Division F1] A control system for marine engine plants having a plurality of internal combustion engines 11, 12, Fig.1, each of which is connected to an input shaft 15, 16 of a common gear 17 through a releasable clutch 13,14, the output shaft 18 of the gear driving a variable pitch propeller, comprises a selector member 23 for rendering one or more of the engines inoperative and a manoeuvring member 22 for adjusting the power output of the plant, the manoeuvring member being connected to the governor inputs 33, 34, Fig. 2, through a transmission whose mechanical advantage is determined by the position of the selector member 23. The input shafts 33, 34 determining the speed settings of the governors, are coupled to a common shaft 49 by torsion couplings 50 and are separately connected by cables 24, 26 Fig. 8 to the ends of levers 86 having followers 85 engaged by slots 84 in cam discs 83 operated through a shaft 73 from the selector member 23; initial movement in one direction of the selector member starts one engine while initial rotation in the opposite direction starts the other. Continued rotation in either direction, however, causes both engines to be operative. Bevel gears 90, 91, a shaft 92, a cam 93, Fig.7, and a linkage 96, 98, 81 shift a pin 80 in a slot 79 of a bell-crank lever 76 forming part of the transmission between the manoeuvring member 22 and the governor input shafts 33, 34 so that the latter receive only half the adjustment when both engines are running. The link 81 is connected by a cable 26 and a lever 48 to the shaft 49 and by the lever 76 and a cam 74 to a shaft 72 on which the manoeuvring member 22 is mounted. A valve 64 controlling a servomotor 19 for altering the pitch of the propeller is connected by a lever 56 to a shaft 52 coupled by dogs 54 to the governor output shafts 35, 36 and by a lever 59 to the cable 25 and hence the shaft 49 while a switch 112 operated by the edge of the cam 74 causes pitch reversal. The shafts 72, 73 carry discs 101, 102 with pawls 106 and notched rims which interengage to prevent the selector handle 23 from rendering one or both engines inoperative before the manoeuvring handle 22 has been returned to idling position. Whether one or both engines are running, the handle 22 can be moved freely to regulate speed, the rim of the disc 101 passing through a notch 105. When the handle 22 is in the position corresponding to half output of the plant, a notch 104 is opposite the periphery of the disc 102 to permit the selector member 23 to be turned to start the second engine.
