Title: Improvements in or relating to recording processes
IPC: G01D15/14
Filed: 1957-12-20
Abstract: 883,516. Recording-processes. MINNEAPOLIS - HONEYWELL REGULATOR CO. Dec. 20, 1957 [Dec. 28, 1956; Feb. 7, 1957 (2)], No. 39655/57. Drawings to Specification. Class 106 (4). A process for recording on a photographic film, one or more visible traces representing the variations with time of one or more phenomena under observation comprises an all-over exposure to radiation at a level below that needed to produce a readily visible image but sufficient to fog the film slightly before exposure to a high-intensity recording beam. After the recording beam has produced a latent trace, the film is subjected to an all-over exposure of a duration and intensity sufficient to render the latent trace visible. A film suitable for this process includes an emulsion containing silver citrate and/or an excess of silver nitrate. Suitable pre-exposure times are a constant exposure for 14 hours to a 100-watt incandescent lamp at 9 feet or for half an hour to a 40-watt incandescent lamp at 1 foot. Pre-exposure to fluorescent radiation permits a reduction in pre-exposure time but results in loss of writing speed and contrast in recording. Pre-exposure for half an hour to a 40-watt incandescent lamp at 1 foot with the energy supplied increasing exponentially with time from zero is also suitable. The latent trace is produced with radiant energy from a mercury lamp in the apparatus described in Specification 883,517. The postexposure step may be for a tenth of a second at 12 inches from a mercury lamp or at 2 to 6 inches from a 105-115 volt fluorescent lamp. The trace is finally stable, but permanent stability may be ensured by chemically processing the film either before or after the postexposure step.

Title: Gas discharge panel display

Filed: 1975-09-30
Abstract: 1523793 Gas discharge display panels INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 30 Sept 1975 [4 Dec 1974] 39873/75 Heading H1D [Also in Division G5] In an alternating current gas discharge display panel, Fig 3, having opposed sets of orthogonally disposed conductors, H, V, to which an alternating sustain voltage pulse of predetermined amplitude and duration is applied to sustain an ionized condition in the lightemitting cells defined thereby, the sustain voltage is produced from a voltage controlled oscillator 24 whose frequency is controlled in response to the amplitude of the sustain voltage sensed by sensor 25 or 26 and the oscillator 24 is connected to control logic 23 which accordingly sets the frequency of the sustain voltage generated, whereby the sustain voltage frequency is shifted as a direct function of the sustain voltage drift from its predetermined setting. As shown in Fig. 2, the sustain voltage amplitude Vs, which is initially set at 10 in the middle of the window formed between the curves 11, 12 defining the sustain voltage window and which may drift to 13, e.g. due to ageing of the circuits, is returned closer to the centre of the window at 13<SP>1</SP> by altering the sustain voltage frequency appropriately. The control logic 23 to do this is empirically determined for each type of panel manufactured.

Abstract: 840,030. Filters. LUBER-FINER Inc. Dec. 12, 1958 [Sept. 19, 1958], No. 40132/58. Class 46. A filter element for use in an oil filter comprises a piece of filter material formed into a flat tube or sock having opposed, longitudinally extending edges, with the tube gathered longitudinally at these edges to decrease the length of the tube and provide convoluted sides. The tube or sock may be formed from a piece of material folded at 42, Fig. 11, and stitched along the edges 41. Two cords 45, 47 are positioned along the sides in tubes formed by seams 46, 48. The sock is sewn at either end and cords are fixed at the lower end so that the element may be formed by drawing the sock along the cord as shown in Fig. 12. The sock may be stitched at 50 to provide effectively four tubes all communicating with the opening 51. Alternatively the opening 51 may be in any suitable position and may be one end of the tube or sock. The length of the tube is preferably reduced to the order of one half its original length. The element 20 is coiled and mounted in a container 21, Fig. 1, the opening being attached to a nipple such as 36 which allows liquid entering the filter at 29 to flow into the sock, the filtrate passing through a perforated plate 32 and ports 39 to the outlet 24. A similar plate and ports may be provided at the upper end of the element and the central tube 34 may be perforated over its length.

A method of seaming the edges of a sheet or joining the edges of different sheets as in the formation of pipes of rectangular cross-section, comprises bending one of the edges (76) through a right angle, Figs. 5 and 6 (not shown), folding a second edge (75) about the first in several steps, Figs. 7-10 (not shown), and then bending the connected edges against an adjacent portion of the sheet, Figs. 11-13 (not shown). The edges are seamed by nine pairs of rolls 21- 29 of which both rolls of each pair 23, 24, 26, 27 are mounted on the right-hand inclined sidewall of a trough (3, Fig. 14 and Fig. 16 (not shown), depicted as displaced by 45 degrees) in the casing 1. One of the rolls of each of the remaining pairs 21, 22, 25, 28, 29 is mounted on the left-hand trough-wall while the cooperating rolls are carried by a cantilever beam 41 fixed to the casing by a plate 50 between rolls 22, 23, where the seam is still open. One of each pair of rolls is mounted resiliently, by springs (35, 36, Fig. 14), with its shaft (11) in a pivotal bearing (14). Rails (53, 53<SP>1</SP>, Fig. 15) on opposite sides of the plate 50 guide the edges between the second and third rolling stages. A motor, through a clutch, drives a shaft (4, Figs. 3 and 4) carrying worm gears (5, 6, 7) for driving the rolls. Rolls 21, 22, through gearing, are driven by the worm (5); rolls 23, 24, 26, 27 are driven by one of the worms (6) and the remaining rolls by another of the worms (7). In a modification, parallel sets of rolls 21, 22 are provided when the edges (75, 76) are in the same plane, the additional set flanging edge 75 in preparation for stage three (Fig. 7) of the seaming operation.

Leakage of inflation air between apertures 14 and bolts 24 is prevented in use by the band 4 and rim base 3a being sandwiched between shaped projections 22 and the respective nuts 25. Movement of the band transversely of the rim during mounting of a tyre is prevented by co-operating circumferential ribs 8 and grooves 7 on the band and rim. The edges 4a of the band are preferably located at least partially in recesses 3d in the flanges, and the band preferably has a natural length of 50-90% of the circumferential length of a bead seat at its junction with the associated rim flange. Fig. 1 illustrates a rim assembly for a tubeless tyre in which the members 5, e.g. 4 to 6 in number, each have ribbed sides 21 engaging the tyre beads and the projection is an annular rib 22. Figs. 5 and 6 illustrate a similar wheel rim assembly for a tubed tyre in which the clamping members each include a backing element providing the annular rib 22 and a rubber facing element 11.
