Title: Fusible link for a cartridge fuse - has two oppositely facing channel sections joined by neck
IPC: H01H69/02
Filed: 1974-03-29
Abstract: This fusible link is suitable for insertion into a cartridge type fuse. It is made from a long band of copper which has a width equal to the length of the link. A fusible layer of tin and lead is deposited upon a centre track. Holes are drilled along this track to provide calibrated necks to the links which are cut transversely from the band. The neck is bent at a diagonal to the other parts of the link which are given a hollow section to ensure rigidity and centralisation in the fuse container. The extreme ends are left flat to make contact with end-caps of the cartridge fuse.

Title: Neutralisation of Friedel-Crafts alkylation catalysts - with gaseous ammonia in aromatic hydrocarbon medium (BR 10.5.77)
IPC: C07C2/68
Filed: 1975-11-13
Abstract: Neutralisation of AlCl3/HCl Friedel-Crafts alkylation catalysts contg. aromatic and alkylaromatic hydrocarbons is carried out by uniformly dispersing the catalyst in an aromatic hydrocarbon medium, stirring the mixt. while adding a small excess of gaseous NH3, and separating the salts formed. The process is esp. useful for neutralising "red oils" from the alkylation of benzene with ethylene or propylene. Treatment with N2O is avoided; this minimises losses of alkylate product and avoids pollution problems.

Title: Mechanised halving and stoning of peaches etc. - for high yield of cleanly cut fruit with little tearing
IPC: A23N4/04
Filed: 1976-08-13
Abstract: The fruit is aligned with and pushed between spring-closed blades which cut through the pulp to grip the stone.

Title: Insulated reinforced concrete ceiling construction - in which metal rods are removed across beams before board insulation and slab addition
IPC: E04B5/23
Filed: 1977-01-21
Abstract: Process for erecting an insulating reinforced concrete ceiling involves inserting an insulating cladding between beams and then casting a reinforced concrete slab on these and on the cladding. Transversely aligned rods of metal are fitted to the beams, and boards are laid on the rods, parallel to the beams. A lightweight cladding of polystyrene, or similar material with low mechanical resistance, is built in above the boards. The concrete slab is then cast across the top and the rods are removed.
