Abstract: 1364462 Device for use in making beverages TELCO (GROUP MANAGEMENT) Ltd 20 Oct 1971 [28 Oct 1970 21 Dec 1970] 51219/70 and 60572/70 Heading A4E [Also in Division B8] A cartridge containing particulate beverageproducing substance sealed therein comprises a cylindrical wall 5 defining an enclosure having opposed openings, filtering means 9, 10 covering said openings and a wick 15 in said enclosure forming a bridge between the charge in the enclosure and the filtering means to assist in conveying the beverage through the cartridge. In use, the cartridge is supported in a support part 2 of a liquid receptacle 1, having a ring 12 for location over, e.g. a cup, so that when boiling water is poured into the receptacle 1 it percolates through the cartridge and the beverage drops into the cup. The wall 5 of the cartridge is formed of plastics material capable of shrinking on cooling to facilitate removal of the used cartridge from the receptacle 1 which has a lid 14 serving as a tray for receptacle 1 after use. A circular filter paper 10 is secured to the lower rim of wall 5 and a square filter paper 9 is secured by an interrupted weld to the upper rim 6 which has ribs 7 radiating from a central part 8, depending corners 15 of the paper 9 forming the wick. The wick may alternatively be formed by using a curved piece of filter paper in the cartridge with its ends sealed to the top or bottom rim of the wall 5; or by sealing a projecting part of one or both of the upper and lower filter papers to the wall 5 intermediate the upper and lower rims thereof; or by providing one of the filter papers with a re-entrant portion extending into the cartridge and spaced from the other filter paper.

Title: Seat reclining mechanisms
IPC: B60N2/22
Filed: 1974-11-01
Abstract: 1470370 Seat/backrest hinge mechanism I H W ENG Ltd 1 Nov 1974 [16 Nov 1973] 53357/73 Heading A4J [Also in Division E2]  In a hinge, for adjustably mounting a seat backrest on a seat frame, provision is made for forward folding of the backrest without adjustment of the hinge so that the backrest can be returned to its previously adjusted position. Construction. A shaft 30 respectively interconnects a backrest plate 12, seat plate 15, thrust plate 20, interleaved friction discs 21-23 and 21A-23A, a further seat plate 24, dished plate 29, and screwed socket 32. The seat plates 15, 24 are inter-connected by pins 25 passing through holes 26, which pins also rigidly inter-connect them with a plate 16 which is secured to the seat frame. A further pin 27 holds friction discs 21-23 against rotation with respect to seat plates 15, 24. The friction discs 21A-23A are held against rotation with respect to thrust plate 20 by pin 35, the head 35A of which rides in the slot 50 of backrest plate 12. The socket 32 is secured to dished plate 29 and also engages screw threads on the shaft 30, which shaft passes right through the socket. One end 43 of spring 42 engages a slot in the end of the shaft 30, and the other end 41 is hooked round a projection 40 on the dished plate 29. A pawl 55 is pivoted to plate 12 by a pin 56. Operating lever 60 is keyed to the pawl by reason of its square crosssection engaging square hole 58. Operation. The spring 42 tends to rotate the socket and shaft in such sense as to screw them together, thereby compressing the friction discs between seat plates 15, 24. As a result the angular relationship of thrust plate 20 with respect to the seat plates 15, 24 is locked. The pawl 55 is spring- biased such that its nose 57 engages the head 35A of pin 35 to prevent it riding along slot 50 from left to right, as shown in Fig. 3, thereby effectively locking the position of backrest plate 12 with respect to seat plates 15, 24. (A) to swing backrest forward without loss of adjustment lever 60 is operated to lift the pawl 55 and allow rotation of backrest plate 12 until peg head 35A abuts the right hand end of slot 50. (B) to adjust the backrest angle shaft 30 is rotated by a knob or like (not shown) an end 31 against the action of spring 42. The compression of the friction discs is therefore relieved and the backrest plate can be freely adjusted. Release of the shaft knob allows the spring 42 to retighten the friction discs.

Abstract: 534,413. Thermally-actuated valves. HORSTMANN, J. H. G., and HORSTMANN GEAR CO., Ltd. Jan. 15, 1940, No. 850. [Class 135] A safety cut-off valve of the kind comprising a valve operated by a thermo-sensitive element, is fitted with a subsidiary non-continuously burning burner positioned to heat the thermosensitive element, said burner being associated with means to extinguish its flame after a pre-determined heating period. The device is also provided with separate means for keeping the element sufficiently hot to maintain it in its valve-opening condition after the valve has been opened by the heat of the subsidiary burner. In the form shown in Fig. 2, the thermal element comprises a bi-metallic strip 5 secured at one end to the spindle 3 of a lift valve and at the other end to a tube 4 secured in the casing and surrounding the valve spindle. The element is subject to the heat of a pilot burner 11 fed from a point on the main supply conduit between the control cock and the inlet side of the cut-off valve and to the heat of the subsidiary burner 10. This burner is supplied through a pressure-operated igniter appliance such as that described in Specification 443,927, which has dry-battery on the case 12 for energizing an electro-catalytic igniter and which interrupts the supply after a pre-determined interval. In place of the electro-catalytic igniter a match or other flame may be used for ignition or a permanently burning byepass burner fed from a point on the admission side of the main tap may be used.

Abstract: 1493260 Cleaning head-lamp glasses H BERKELIUS 11 Dec 1974 [12 Dec 1973] 53554/74 Heading A4F [Also in Division F1] An hydraulic motor for driving e.g. head-lamp cleaning wiper blades comprises a piston 2 reciprocable in a cylinder 1, the forward stroke of the piston 2 being effected by liquid continuously supplied through an inlet 6 to a chamber 7 and the return stroke being effected by a spring 8 when a valve 10, 12 is opened to allow the chamber 7 to exhaust through a passage 9 in the piston 2. The exhaust liquid flows from the chamber containing the spring 8 to both a return aperture (13) and an aperture (14) for supplying flushing liquid to the head-lamp. Helical, leaf or cup springs are arranged to maintain the valve 10, 12 in its open or closed position until changeover occurs at the end of each stroke. At the end of the forward stroke a shoulder 21 on a lever 18 pivotable in a groove (19) in the piston 2 strikes a rocker arm 15. This striking causes the arm 15 to pivot against the action of a spring 17. Continued piston movement results in a point on the lever 18 entering a tapered recess in the end of the cylinder and laterally displacing the lever 18 against the bias of a spring ring 20. The arm 15 is therefore released and moves the valve to its open position whereby the spring 8 returns the piston 2 until the valve is again closed by a spring 11a thereon striking the cylinder end 5. The chamber 7 is sealed by a bellows 4.
