Title: Sheet delivery for holding cylinder-presses, in which the printed sheet is delivered with the printed side upwards
IPC: B65H29/24
Filed: 1930-05-29
Abstract: 362,413. Sheet-delivery apparatus. THIEME, A. W., 6, Adelgundestrasse, W³rzburg, Germany. May 29, 1930, No. 16605. Convention date, May 29, 1929. Void [Published under Sect. 91 of the Acts]. [Class 100 (i).] Apparatus for delivering sheets from cylinder printing-presses with their printed side upwards comprises two delivery drums 6, 7, Fig. 5, following one another and driven independently. The sheets are fed from a pile situated above the delivery table over an inclined table 5 to the impression cylinder 1 of the press, and after being printed are taken by grippers 10 or suction devices on a delivery drum 6 which is half the diameter of the cylinder 1 and driven therefrom through gearing 13, 14, so that it rotates intermittently in one direction. A belt 17 is provided to keep the sheets in contact with the drum 6. The second drum 7 to which the sheet is transferred is slightly larger than the drum 6 and is driven directly from the reciprocating bed 3 through toothed gearing 15, 16, so that it makes two revolutions in each direction alternately. Suction or gripper devices 11 are provided on the drum 7 as for the drum 6, but additional grippers 12 are provided to hold the trailing edge of the sheet. On the reversal of the motion of the drum 7 when the cylinder 1 and drum 6 are at rest, the sheet edge held by the grippers 12 becomes the leading edge, which is engaged by oscillating fingers 20 and caused to pass on to endless bands 19 moved continuously in one direction by ratchet mechanism operated from the drum 7. Knives 44 can be provided to cut the sheets into smaller sheets as they are being delivered. Grippers 42 on a reciprocating carriage are actuated to grip the edge of the sheet and carry it over a delivery board, a roller-blind support 29 on the carriage supporting the sheet during the movement towards the board. On the reverse movement, the grippers 42 are opened and the support 29 is wound up so that the sheet drops on to the pile. The carriage is reciprocated from a crank or eccentric which can be adjusted so that the grippers 42 arrive adjacent to the bands 19 at the moment when a sheet is being delivered therefrom. The drums 6, 7, Fig. 6, each consist of two ring discs 8, 9 adjustable according to the width of the sheets being delivered. For suction delivery, the periphery is perforated at 48 .. 52 and a suction chamber 55 moved circumferentially of the discs by cam devices is provided and suitably slotted at 56 .. 59 so that the perforations 48 .. 51 are successively opened to the suction effect as they arrive adjacent to a sheet being delivered. The chamber 55 is connected by a flexible pipe 54 to the hollow shaft of the drum which communicates with the air pump. The drums 6, 7 may, if desired, be of the same diameter as the impression cylinder 1.

Title: Improvements in or relating to blind landing systems using electromagnetic waves
IPC: G01S1/02
Filed: 1940-11-20
Abstract: 546,021. Directive wireless signalling. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES, Ltd., and WILLIAMS, H. P. Nov. 20, 1940, No. 16697. [Class 40 (v)] [Also in Group XXXVI] In a blind landing system of the kind in which a glide path for a landing aircraft comprises a path of constant field strength, arrangements are provided for projecting a radio beam along the landing path together with means for automatically varying the tilt or the intensity of the beam as the aircraft glides down the beam so as to produce a straight glide path. In Fig. 1, the glide path P<SP>1</SP> between outer and inner marker beacons M1, M2 is made a straight line by tilting the beam about 1 ¢ degrees upwards after the craft has passed the beacon M1 and tilting the beam back again as the craft approaches the beacon M2. The tilting is effected automatically on the receipt of signals from M1, M2 or under the control of distance indications given by the frequency sweep method using reflection from the aircraft. According to the Provisional Specification the tilting may be effected manually. The tilting is carried out by changing the position of the transmitting antenna relative to its reflector or by changing the phase in a small array of antennae, or by varying the angular disposition of an antenna-reflector combination. A straight line glide path may also be produced by reducing the intensity of the beam under control of distance indications obtained by the frequency sweep method. To avoid spurious ground reflections the transmitted wave is received on the craft, Fig. 6, and retransmitted at double frequency, so as to beat at the receiver XR with a part of the wave from transmitter XT which is doubled at DM. This avoids confusion with spurious reflections at the initial frequency of the main beam.

Title: Improvements relating to phosphonamides and the preparation thereof
IPC: C07F9/564
Filed: 1952-07-04
Abstract: Phosphonamides having the formula: <FORM:0715422/IV (a)/1> in which R is hydrogen or an aliphatic radical and R1 is an aliphatic or aromatic radical (see Group IV (b)) may be polymerized to form new plastics.ALSO:The invention comprises as new compounds phosphonamides having the formula: <FORM:0715422/IV (b)/1> in which R is hydrogen or an aliphatic radical and R1 is an aliphatic or aromatic radical.  The compounds which are stated to have therapeutic properties (see Group VI) may be obtained by reacting a dihalophosphoric acid compound having the formula: <FORM:0715422/IV (b)/2> in which X is chlorine or bromine, with at least two molecular equivalents of an ethyleneimine compound having the formula: <FORM:0715422/IV (b)/3> in the presence of a hydrohalide acid acceptor.  The dihalophosphonic acid compound may be, for example, ethanephosphonyl dichloride, beta-chloroethanephosphonyl dichloride, butanephosphonyl dichloride, cyclohexanephosphonyl dichloride, benzenephosphonyl dichloride, 4-methylbenzenephosphonyl dichloride, 2-chlorobenzenephosphonyl dichloride or 1-naphthalenephosphonyl dichloride.  The ethyleneimine compound may be ethyleneimine, or a C-substituted ethyleneimine such as 2-methyl-; 2-ethyl-; 2,2-dimethyl-; 2-propyl-; 2,2-diethyl-; or 2-hexyl-ethyleneimine.  The reaction is generally carried out at 0-80 DEG  C. and preferably in an inert organic solvent such as benzene, ether, dioxane, or ethylene dichloride and when a solvent is used it is necessary to include as an acid acceptor a tertiary amine such as triethylamine or pyridine.  With the more stable phosphonic chlorides the reaction can also be carried out in aqueous solution in which case the acid acceptor may be an alkaline substance such as an alkali metal hydroxide, carbonate or bicarbonate.  In examples: benzenephosphonyl dichloride, ethane phosphonyl dichloride, cyclohexanephosphonyl dichloride, toluene-phosphonyl dichloride, and p-chlorobenzene-phosphonyl dichloride, respectively, are reacted with ethyleneimine to yield the corresponding phosphondiamides.  In each case the reaction is carried out by adding the phosphonyl dichloride in dry benzene to a mixture of ethyleneimine and triethylamine in benzene the product being recovered by filtering off the triethylamine hydrochloride and then distilling off the benzene.ALSO:Phosphonamides having the formula <FORM:0715422/VI/1> in which R is hydrogen or an aliphatic radical and R1 is an aliphatic or aromatic radical (see Group IV(b)) are stated to be effective in causing inhibition or remission of tumours in animals and may be administered either in saline solution or in vegetable oils according to solubility.  Specific compounds described are those in which each R group is hydrogen and R1 is phenyl, p-chlorophenyl, ethyl, cylohexyl, and p-tolyl, respectively.
Patent GB-108416-A (GB)
Title: Improvements relating to Submarine Vessels.
Inventor: YARROW HAROLD EDGAR
IPC: B63G8/10
Filed: 1916-11-24
Abstract: 108,416. Yarrow, H. E. Nov. 24, 1916. Submarine vessels.-A lid or valve at the top of a funnel of a submarine is closed from within the vessel when it is about to submerge, and the gearing for effecting this is arranged so as to close also the furnace fuel and air supply regulators, either simultaneously or in a desired sequence. Fig. 1 shows a water-tube boiler B fired by oil supplied by means of a valve M The rotation of a hand-wheel L rotates the valve M by means of a gear N, closes the air-supply dampers O by means of the worm-gearing and link and levers S, R, Q, P, and closes over the top of the funnel a valve or lid E, which also is operated by worm-gearing H, G. The operations may be carried out in the order indicated by fitting to the gear N a clutch T which slips when the valve M is closed, and by fitting a spring X in the connecting-rod Q. The arrangement is such that the dampers 0 move only a little while the valve M is closing and the upper end of the rod Q is moving between the points 1, 2, but a further movement from 2 to 3 closes the dampers 0, and a further movement from 3 to 4 is taken up by the spring X ; at the end of this last movement the valve E on the funnel top is closed on to a seating of leather or the like. The valve may be cooled by water introduced and evacuated by pipes X, Y and passages U, Fig. 2a, in the hinge and circulating through the body of the valve. The valve may be arranged with a specially-constructed hinge, Fig. 3, on the forward side of the funnel, so that it is closed by the rush of water as the vessel submerges. The hinge-pin c of the valve E carries a block e attached to which is a blade spring k. The ends of this press into engagement with flat parts of the hinge h embracing the pin c, pins g, g<1> which, as the worm-gearing H, G and the spindle c rotate so as to lift the valve, engage with projections o adjacent to these flat parts, and lift the valve. Lateral movement of the valve being prevented by suitable means, the thread e moves the hinge-pin c laterally until the pins g, g<1> are free from the engagement with the projections o. In these circumstances, the valve E is retained in its upraised position by the pressure of the pins g, g<1>, on the flat parts of the hinge h, but when the vessel dives, the spring k gives way and allows the valve E to be closed bv the pressure of the water. To ensure the closing of the valve, the gearing shown in Fig. 1 is rotated, rotating also the hinge-pin F, Fig. 1, or c, Fig. 3, and causing the pins g, g' to engage with projections q similar but opposite to the projections o and to close the valve, while at the same time moving the pin c laterally, by means of the thread e, until the pins g, g<1> come into position adjacent to the projections o ready to lift the valve again.
