Title: Weigh devices
IPC: G01G3/00
Filed: 1972-01-24
Abstract: 1412962 Weighing Device ARTHUR GUINNESS SON & CO (PARK ROYAL Ltd 10 Jan 1973 [24 Jan 1972] 3187/72 Heading G1W A weigh device comprises at least two substantially parallel diaphragms 16, 17 vertically spaced by a support member 13 and a coupling member 18, one member being located within the other, a horizontal platform 28 secured to the coupling member and a measuring device 31 responsive to vertical displacement of a vertical loading on the coupling member, the diaphragms each having an array of elongate reinforcing means which extend radially between the members to provide localized radial stiffness in the diaphragms. The reinforcing means may be radial depressions 29, and the diaphragms may be formed of phosphor bronze or  stainless steel by stamping or pressing. The diaphragms are secured to members 13, 18 by means of locking rings 23, 24, and the platform 28 is secured to member 18 by bolts 27 and end-plates 25, 26. The abutment of plates 25, 26 on rings 24 limits the extent of movement of member 18, and a spring 33 permits a zeroizing force to be applied to plate 26. The measuring device 31 may be an electrical or hydraulic load cell, or an electromagnetic device, a transducer or a mechanical device for indicating the extent of movement of cylinder 18. A suitable load cell includes a diaphragm having bonded foil strain gauges connected in a bridge circuit, and the cell maybe zeroed electrically. The weight device may be used for weighing beer kegs 32 as they pass along a conveyer 4 and the measuring device may be arranged to reject underweight kegs 32. The diaphragms 16, 17 may be radially compressed to such an extent that there is negligible resistance to vertical movement of the cylinder 18 from them. In Fig. 1, a conveyer has an upper run 4 and a lower return run 5. The weigh device is mounted on arms 7 resiliently pivoted at 8, and a pneumatic lifting device allows the weigh device to be raised so that platform 28 raises a keg 32 from the conveyer. The conveyer may consist of a pair of endless chains and the platform be arranged to rise between the chains. Alternatively the conveyer may be a single belt and the platform of U-shape so as to straddle the belt and be raised on both sides thereof to lift an article which overlaps the width of the belt. The construction of the diaphragm is said to provide heavy damping in the horizontal plane to overcome vibration due to a moving article engaging the platform. There may be three or more diaphragms.

[Also in Division B2] A surgical dressing is prepared by a process in which a fibre fleece is needled and a coating of adhesive of thickness 25-100 x 10<SP>-3</SP> mm. is applied upon the entry side of the needles into said fleece, so as to connect fibres of the uppermost fibre layer to each other. The fleece may be composed of several layers of straightened fibres substantially parallel to and superimposed on each other, fibres of each layer extending at substantially right angles to those of the adjacent layer. Before needling the fleece may be applied upon an additional supporting fabric such as an absorbent gauze. The adhesive may be insoluble in water and dyed to a heat-absorbent colour. In a process described, after needling, the fleece is passed between two evolving coating rollers and an adhesive, based on silicone rubber, cellulose acetate, polyisobutylene or polyamide, is continuously applied and the coated fibre fleece is then compressed before the adhesive has dried e.g. by passing it through another pair of rollers. Air may be blown up through the coated fleece.
