Abstract: 616,935. Rotary filters. ELLILA, K. L. Sept. 23, 1946. No. 28472. Convention date, April 25. [Class 46] In inward-flow rotary drum filtering apparatus of the kind in which a pulp iayer is continually applied to and removed from the drum, the pulp layer, produced from suspended wood, chemical, or other pulp on an endless wire gauze or a collecting roller, is applied in such a manner that the exterior skin of the pulp layer as produced forms the interior skin of the layer on the drum. The pulp fibres thus lie flat along the surface of the drum. As shown, liquid to be filtered enters the vat 2 by inlet 3, and pulp suspension by inlet 5 into the trough 4, from which trough the pulp passes to a collecting roller 6, adjustable in height by a lever 6a. The roller 6 rests on the periphery of the filter drum 1 by which it is rotated, and delivers the pulp layer to the drum 1. The pulp layer is removed on the opposite side of the drum by the knife 8. An intermediate filter, formed of wire gauze or felt band, as wide as the drum 1 but longer than its circumference, may be wound on the roller 11, and one end fed under the pulp layer, so that the drum, on rotation, drags the band with it. When the end appears from under the pulp layer on the other side of the drum, it is placed to underlap the other end of the band so that the band functions as an endless one. It may be removed by rolling up onto roller 12. Instead of the collecting roller 6, an endless band or gauze may be used. The intermediate filtering band may also be an endless band guided over one or more rollers.

Abstract: 833,889. Spoons. CAWDRON, R. C. Sept. 11. 1958 [Sept. 11, 1957], No. 28598/57. Class 128 A spoon, particularly suitable for children, comprises a handle and a bowl, which is freely rotatable relatively to the handle about an axis substantially parallel or concentric with the handle. The centre of gravity of the bowl is located away from the axis so that, when the spoon is held horizontally by the handle, the bowl moves into a position in which its centre of gravity is below the said axis and the mouth of the bowl faces upwards. Thus, the bowl tends to retain any material deposited therein despite rotation of the handle. The bowl may be integral with a shaft freely rotatable in a sleeve constituting the handle. The bowl may be shaped, e.g. it may have a flat underside, so that little or no turning moment affects the bowl when it is moved across and in contact with a plate. In one construction, the bowl is shaped like a coal shovel; the shaft is cylindrical and mounted in bearings A and B within the handle and is provided with a retaining knob C, which may be deformable so that it may be pushed through the holes in the bearings to facilitate removal of the shaft from the handle for cleaning. Instead of a knob, a shoulder may be provided, on the shaft within the handle, to abut bearing A. In another construction, the bowl is'pivoted to a solid handle. The spoon may be made of nylon or polythene.

Abstract: 1,128,687. Movie camera gun. MATTEL Inc. 27 June, 1966 [28 Feb., 1966], No. 28713/66. Heading A6S. The toy comprises a housing simulating a hand-type movie camera and a gun-barrel telescopically mounted within the housing and hidden therein. Figure 1 shows a part sectional view of the toy gun. Figure 2 shows the toy simulating a movie-camera. With reference to Figure 2, the telescopic gun barrels 20, 28 are retained within housing 12 by a locking member 40, the lower end of which is connected to the trigger 16. A predetermined movement of this trigger will enable the barrels to fully extend. The cap firing mechanism is actuated by trigger 16, the caps being detonated by being struck by the hammer 56 on the anvil 74. A single action of the trigger will thus produce a single detonation. The lug 92 of the hammer 56 can engage with the equally spaced teeth 94 of the star wheel 96. This wheel is mounted on a shaft together with an output drum 100, the latter part of a "Neg'ator" spring driving means see Figure 8. With reference to Figure 8, the reversibly bent spring 108 is retained on an output drum 100 only so long as counter clockwise rotation of this drum is prevented by the locking lever 110. This lever is operated by a connection to the trigger 16, thus allowing the drum 108 to rotate, causing a repetition of the firing movement of the hammer 56 and mechanism. The spring now on drum 104 may be rewound on to the drum 100. The governor member 132, the end 140, 142 of which engage with the teeth 94 thus serving to impart an even intermittent rotation to the star wheel, may be locked in position by the locking plate 150 thus preventing rapid firing but permitting single firing. When unlocked, and with the trigger so positioned that the lug 144 is adjacent to the recess 148 and hence not engaging the arm 136, the output drum and star wheel are free to rotate as described above. When oscillating, the weighted and enlarged end 138 of the arm 136 may alternately engage opposite sides of the handle 14 thus producing a sound simulating rapid firing.
