Title: Deposition chamber for manufacture of refractory coated filaments
Inventor: ROBBINS WILLIAM BREWSTER
IPC: D06C29/00
Filed: 1967-11-30
Abstract: 1,142,080. Treating carbon fibres, boron, SiC. DOW CORNING CORP. 30 Nov., 1967 [13 March, 1967], No. 54471/67. Heading C1A. [Also in Division C7] In coating fibres or filaments with refractory materials by gaseous reaction or decomposition a constant temperature gradient is maintained at the filament surface by varying the spacing of adjacent filaments along the length of the deposition chamber so that they are a greater distance apart at its entrance than at its exit and by varying the velocity of feed gas and/or the cross-sectional area of the feed chamber along its length so as to compensate for change in the surface area of the filament as coatings build up on it. Contacts 17, 18 supply electric power to tungsten or carbon filament 11, which is heated to at least 1000‹ C. if silicon carbide is to be deposited on it, e.g from a dimethyldichlorosilane-hydrogen mixture, or to 600-1000‹ C. for deposition of boron, using boron trichloride or a boron hydride. Filament 11 is gas-etched, e.g. by hydrogen, in chamber 14, then passes through barrier chamber, 23, which may be filled with argon, into deposition chamber 16. In chamber 16 baffle 33, use of unevenly spaced multiple gas inlets 26a-g and corresponding multiple outlets, varying cross-section and changes in filament to filament and filament to wall distances induce turbulence and mixing in the reacting gases.

Filed: 1974-12-18
Abstract: 1479520 Distorted photographs UNILEVER Ltd 18 Dec 1974 [20 Dec 1973] 54611/74 Heading G2X A distorted artwork image is produced on flat stock material, the image being distorted so as to provide a desired undistorted artwork image after being stretched by deep drawing of the flat stock material into a desired shape, by representing the original artwork on the inner walls of a cylinder, photographing a distorted image of the artwork as reflected from the cylinder by a mirror arranged coaxially within the cylinder, and printing the distorted image on the flat stock material. The original artwork 12 is placed around the mirror element 10 in the form of a cylinder supported by an upright cylindrical support 16, and illuminated by lamps 17. The distorted image 13 is photographed by a camera 15 through a lens system 14. The shape of the mirror element may be determined by printing a flat sheet blank with a line pattern, deep drawing the blank under production conditions to the desired final shape, determining the amount of stretch of the material in a meridian section by comparing the distances between the lines of the stretched line pattern with those of the original line pattern, and plotting the stretched distances on one axis of a graph against the original distances on a second axis, and determining the mirror shape such that the surface reflects light rays from points on the one axis to respective points on the other axis. The photograph of the distorted image may be reproduced on the flat stock material by a photogravure printing procedure. The method is suited to printing of artwork on to containers deep drawn from plastics sheet materials.

Abstract: 1287287 Magnetic storage devices THOMSON-CSF 4 Dec 1969 [10 Dec 1968] 59369/69 Heading H3B In a method making a magnetic storage element, a magnetic toroid is electrodeposited on a metal substrate and subsequently encased in metal, drive conductors are deposited on the metal and through holes therein to thread the toroid, and then the metal is chemically removed and replaced by insulating material. Fig. 1 shows the substrate 1, of copper, on which there are photoresist layers 2, 3, and magnetic material 4, 5 forming the toroid. Areas 6 in the layer 3 are formed prior to the electrodeposition of magnetic material 4, 5, and are covered by a plate (not shown) during the electrodeposition. By etching areas 6, holes are formed through the substrate corresponding to the position and number of the drive conductors required for the toroid. The walls of the holes 9, Fig. 3, and the remaining surfaces are electrolytically coated with a copper layer, and a drive conductor of gold 8 is deposited electrolytically on the copper and through a respective hole. Areas 15, Fig. 5, of copper separating the drive conductors and the toroid are etched away and replaced by insulating material, and with the conductors thus supported the remaining copper is dissolved and replaced by further insulating material 17 which surrounds the toroid by capillary action. The elements may be made singly or in multiple.
