Title: An input device for matrix stores with selectable allocation of the information to column and row wires
IPC: G06K15/08
Filed: 1963-04-03
Abstract: 1,039,324. Computer output printer; data storage; selective signalling. OLYMPIA WERKE A.G. April 3, 1963 [April 5, 1962], No. 13181/63. Headings G4C and G4H. In an arrangement for editing the output data of a computer data is supplied to the printer via a buffer matrix which can be arranged to vary the sequence of the data to be printed and to print predetermined symbols where required. As shown in Fig. 2, data to be printed is supplied from a source 65 in the form of serial decimal digits, each digit being represented by energizing one of ten row lines " 0 "-" 9 " of a magnetic core matrix 76 in synchronism with a control pulse 85 which steps on a 8-position commutator 49 the outputs of the stages of which are connected, via a switch 64 either to a sequencer 66 or to a sequencer 67 or to a set of OR gates 62a-62i. The sequencer 66 may be a plug-in unit which can be changed when desired and the sequencer 67 may be built-in. Alternatively plug and socket sequencers may be employed. The function of the sequencers is firstly by means of cross-connections such as 53a to vary the sequence of columns in which the input digits are stored so that, since the matrix is scanned for printing in a predetermined order, the order in which the digits are provided by the source 65 can can be varied for printing. The second function of the sequencers is, by means of additional connections such as 89a, 87 and OR gates 61-61k in the matrix row input lines, to provide for the printing of the predetermined symbols (such as a calendar date) when the source 65 produces control pulses but no corresponding data pulses on the lines " 0 "-" 9 ". Matrix read-out for printing.-The completion of the entry of data into the matrix 76 is signalled by an output pulse 83 from the commutator 49, the pulses changing over a flip-flop 45 thereby enabling a gate 41 to pass pulses produced by a photo-cell 28 in response to movement of a type carrier 21 to the sliding contact 35 of a rotary commutator 34 geared to rotate with a drum 23 which drives the type carrier 21. The ten outputs of the commutator 34 are connected to lines 01-09 which thread the cores of the matrix 76 diagonally. The matrix columns are connected to printing hammers 11-19 and the arrangement is such that pulses fed from the photo-cell 28 pass via the commutator 34 to the diagonal sensing lines of the matrix 76 in sequence and in synchronism with the movement of the type carrier 21 so that the entire contents of the matrix can be printed during one pass of digits 0-9 on the type carrier 21. On completion of the printing operation, as detected by a counter 43, a new read-in cycle is initiated by a pulse 86. In another embodiment (Fig. 1, not shown) the printing device is not described and the buffer storage matrix is capable of storing symbols other than the decimal digits 0-9.

Conveyers are fitted to each hold for discharging the cargo, and the ventilating cowls are made collapsible for convenience when loading. A reciprocating rake fitted over the conveyer prevents choking. Pipes connect the various holds to permit free circulation of the air, and the forward bulkheads are inclined, as shown.
Patent GB-585169-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in the lubrication of contra-rotating airscrews for aircraft
IPC: B64C11/30
Filed: 1944-07-12
Abstract: 585,169. Lubricating. MARTIN, J., and MARTIN-BAKER AIRCRAFT CO., Ltd. July 12, 1944, No. 13364. [Class 12 (iii)] For the translational bearing for contrarotating air screws, which bearing connects the blade-pitch adjusting means for the contrarotating screws and moves axially when the blade pitch is varied, the lubricating system is such that excess oil above a predetermined amount is drained way from the bearing when the contra-rotating screws are in operation and on stoppage of the contra-rotating screws a predetermined quantity of oil is automatically delivered to the bearing. As shown in Fig. 1 the blades 13, 19 of the contra-rotating air screws are adjusted by racks 12, 18 which are moved axially by a pressure-fluid system comprising a fixed piston 11 and moving cylinder 10, the connection between the racks of the two air screws which, of course, rotate in opposite directions, including the translational bearing 20. The lubricating means for this bearing is shown on an enlarged scale in Fig. 5 in the position taken up when the air screws are in operation. The rack 12 is connected to the inner race of the bearing 20 while the rack 18 is connected to a housing 17 which surrounds and rotates with the outer race and also carries an annular oil reservoir 21. The side walls of the housing 17 have recesses 28 of diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the inner face of the outer race which recesses communicate by a pipe 30 with a spring-loaded centrifugal device so that when the air screws are operating all oil except the small quantity held back on the outer race by the slightly smaller diameter of the housing recess 28 drains outwardly by centrifugal action to the reservoir 21 and to the outer end of the centrifugal device. The centrifugal device includes a spring-loaded piston 38 sliding in an open-ended cylinder 37 which is spaced away from the enclosing container 34. A port 43 in the open-ended cylinder allows oil to pass to or from the interior thereof and it will be seen that when on stoppage of the air screws the piston moves radially inward under spring action oil will be trapped by the piston closing the port 43 and such oil will be fed to the bearing 20. The reservoir is vented 'by a spring-loaded centrifugal valve when the screws are in operation. The outward movement of the piston is limited by a stud 44 ; a conical valve piece 38a on the piston 38 when the latter is in the rest position closes the entrance to the pipe 30 and so limits the amount of oil which is delivered to the bearing.

Title: Improvements in the treatment of fabrics for modifying their lustre and other properties
IPC: D06Q1/00
Filed: 1939-05-05
Abstract: 528,358. Treating textiles with liquids. TOOTAL BROADHURST LEE CO., Ltd., BUTTERWORTH, J. H., NEARY, P. J., FOULDS, R. P., and MARSH, J. T. May 5, 1939, No. 13413. Addition to 467,480. [Class 15 (ii)] The process of the parent Specification is modified by treating textile material with resin-forming solutions, heating to a high temperature, and then treating the unwashed material with a precipitant to convert the incompletely condensed resin-components into an insoluble finely divided non-resinous product so as to delustre the material. The precipitant is preferably a dilute acid. Regenerated cellulose textiles may be treated. When crease-resistance effects are desired in addition to the delustring effect, there is employed a greater quantity of resin components than would be required to produce crease-resistance alone. An additional quantity of formaldehyde may be present in the acid used for precipitating the residual reagents or unresinified compounds in finely divided form, e.g. as methylene ureas. The solutions used for impregnating the cloth may comprise uncondensed reagents or lightly condensed solutions prepared by reflux or cold methods. Dyed or undyed pattern effects may be obtained by the use of resists. In an example, urea is dissolved and boiled under reflux with a solution of formaldehyde containing ammonia. After a few minutes the solution is diluted with water and a little tartaric acid is added. Regenerated cellulose fabric is impregnated with the solution, squeezed, dried at low temperature, and then heated for a few minutes at 170‹C. The fabric is then passed through dilute hydrochloric acid, squeezed, allowed to stand for several minutes, then washed. The fabric shows improved crease-resistance and is of reduced lustre. In another example viscose fabric is treated with a urea formaldehyde pre-condensate solution containing ammonium dihydrogen phosphate. In another example, urea, formaldehyde, and ammonia solution are heated under reflux for a few minutes. The solution is cooled and diluted and tartaric acid is added. Cloth is impregnated with the solution, and then steamed or warmed to cause precipitation of methylene ureas whereby some delustring occurs. The cloth is dried and then heated to 170‹C. to produce an anti-crease effect. The heated but unwashed cloth is then passed through dilute hydrochloric acid to precipitate uncombined or unresinified reagents, and is then washed. The material may then be subjected to a swelling treatment with a mercerizing agent. Instead of producing creaseresistance in combination with the delustring effect, the quantity of resin components used may be sufficient only to produce increased resistance to shrinking or to degradation by light, or to produce fixation of dyestuffs or of embossed pattern effects, in addition to the delustring effect. Specifications 291,473, [Class 15 (ii)], 437,361, 437,441, 449,243, and 499,207 are referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to hydraulic tappets as used in internal combustion engines
IPC: F01L1/245
Filed: 1943-08-18
Abstract: 564,684. Tappets. TOWLER, C. Aug. 18, 1943, No. 13430. [Class 7 (vi)] In a tappet comprising two sliding members 10, 15 enclosing a space to which oil under pressure is fed through a passage 12 when the tappet is in the inoperative position, a peg 20 projecting inwardly from the outer sliding member 10 engages with a limited amount of clearance a spiral groove 17, with closed ends, formed in the inner sliding member, the oil from the passage'12 reaching the interior of the inner member through a longitudinal passage 22 and a transverse passage 23 in the peg 20 to take up any tappet clearance when operation of the valve has not lifted the end of the passage 23 into contact with the upper face of the slot 17. As shown, the peg comprises a pin extending through both inner and outer members and having a flat recess where the passage 23 ends, the walls of the recess engaging the wall of the inner member to position the pin, the other end of which is accommodated loosely in a second spiral slot 18. An enlargement 27 on the groove 17 permits the insertion of the pin. A spring 25 tends to force the members apart to facilitate the introduction of the oil and may also control a valve which allows some oil to escape and lubricate the valve gear as described in Specifications 510,864 and 536,674.
