Title: Multi-person 3D display system with several viewers watching different images on a single screen
Inventor: PORTER ROBERT MARK STEFAN
IPC: H04N13/00
Filed: 2009-08-06
Abstract: A method of displaying a plurality of different 3D images on one display with several users viewing separate stereoscopic images through synchronised shutter glasses, the image being displayed for a time period synchronised with the shutter glasses and determined by the frame duration and number of images being displayed. The shutter glasses may include polarised lenses and the display may include polarised lines for display. The display brightness may be increased from an initial level when the shutter glasses are first synchronised, the brightness level proportional to the number of users, then reduced to the initial level over time. The shutter glasses may receive unique ID information detailing when the lenses are to be opaque or transparent during synchronisation at the start of every frame. The left and right stereoscopic 3D images may be displayed in sequence or interweaved during the frame. The image perspective may be adjusted depending on the tracked virtual location and movement of the user.

A fungicidal composition in the form of a pourable, stable, concentrated suspension, comprises a solid fungicidal material dispersed in finely divided state in a hydrocarbon oil of viscosity between 0.8 and 3,000 centipoises at 20‹ C., of boiling range which does not begin below about 100‹ C., and substantially free from phytocidal properties, the fungicidal material being insoluble or only slightly soluble in the said oil, a non-ionic dispersing agent, and a small quantity of water sufficient to make them readily pourable. The solid fungicide is ground with the oil and the dispersing agent is added to the mixture preferably before grinding. The water may be added before, during or after grinding to improve the pourabllity of the product, which may contain 40 to 60 per cent fungicide. Ionic emulsifiers such as mineral oil sulphonates and salts of acid sulphuric alkyl esters and alkali metal salts of polybasic carboxylic acids e.g. sodium citrate may be added. The preferred nonionic dispersing agents are condensation products of ethylene oxide with alkyl phenols. Suitable hydrocarbon oils are white oil, spindle oil and similar highly refined lubricating oils. The fungicide may be e.g. copper 8 hydroxy quinolate, copper oxychloride, cuprous oxide and thiuram disulphides. Specification 628,766 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in printing presses
IPC: B41F3/20
Filed: 1922-04-11
Abstract: 203,732. Marks, E. C. R., (Miehle Printing Press & Manufacturing Co.). April 11, 1922. Cylinder machines ; tripping - arrangements. - A stopcylinder machine is constructed with means for disconnecting the driving- gear and fluid-pressure means for locking the cylinder if a sheet is not registered correctly against the stems of the cylinder grippers. The invention is especially applicable to a machine of the kind described in Specification 184,582, in which a cylinder is reciprocated in a direction opposite to that of a vertical reciprocating bed. A vertically reciprocating cylinder frame 13, Fig. 1, carries the cylinder 14 and reciprocates in opposite directions to the bed 9. On the downward motion of cylinder 14 the cylinder is locked in position by a dog 40 on a spring-controlled pawl 41 which engages a recess 42 in a disc 43 secured to the end of a trunnion of the cylinder. At the bottom of the downward stroke of the cylinder carriage, the cylinder is put into driving connection with a notched disc 29 integral with a gear freely mounted on the cylinder and oscillated by a fixed rack. This driving-connection is obtained by a spring-pressed pawl 32. Fig. 5, on the cylinder 14 which engages a slot 30 in the disc 29 having a straight driving-wall 36, and an inclined wall 38 for permitting dis. engagement of the pawl at the top of the stroke of the carriage. The pawl 41 and dog 40 are so arranged that when the disc 29 drives the cylinder 14 in a counterclockwise direction, as in Fig. 5, the action of the slot in which the dog 40 engages causes the pawl 41 to move about its pivot to free the cylinder from this locking-device. At the top of the stroke this locking-device automatically comes into locking position again, and on reversal of the motion of disc 29 the pawl 32 is disengaged by the action of the inclined wall 38 on an inclined portion of the pawl, this action being assisted by the dog 40 which holds the disc 43 fast. A pair of apertures is formed in the gripper bar 15 near the grippers which effect the registration, and if the sheets are correctly registered a vacuum is established behind a diaphragm 58, Fig. 5, and a catch 52 is operated to release the shaft 33 to enable the pawl 32 to move into action. If the vacuum is not established, owing to the failure of a sheet to be registered correctly, the catch 52 is not operated, and the cylinder 14 is not operated on the upward motion of the cylinder carriage.

Title: Improvements relating to laundry presses
IPC: H01H43/28
Filed: 1939-04-04
Abstract: 527,203. Ironing-presses. TULLIS, Ltd.. D. & J., and WILSON, R. April 4, 1939, No. 10451. [Class 138 (ii)] [Also in Group XXIX]-- Admission of fluid pressure to the cylinder of an ironing-press is controlled by two levers 4 carried by a whipple tree so that on simultaneous depression of both levers the whipple tree is moved to open a supply valve 2 and close an exhaust valve 3 on the same stem against the action of a spring 2a. As the press reaches closed position the whipple tree is automatically held in the operated position until it is positively moved, by the action of a timing device, in the reverse direction whereupon the spring 2a closes the valve 2 and opens the exhaust and the press opens. The timing device comprises a cylinder 8 to which the valve 2 admits fluid pressure through an adjutable throttle 10, and the cylinder 8 communicates with a cylinder 12 containing a spring-loaded piston. When the fluid pressure builds up to a predetermined value the piston moves and admits the pressure to a ram cylinder 17 raising the ram 18 and rocking a bell-crank lever 20 clockwise, one arm of the lever bearing on a stop on the whipple tree to move the latter to its inoperative position and open the press. As the press reaches full open position it opens an exhaust valve for evacuating the cylinder 8 quickly, such valve being closed by a spring when next the press starts to move to closed position. The cylinder 17 exhausts through a port 16 and an axial passage in the piston in the cylinder .17. By adjusting the throttle valve 10 so that air is admitted very rapidly into the cylinder 8 it is possible for the head to have a pulsatory movement which may be terminated by a second timing device.

[Class 40 (ii).] An automatic brake operated by the tone-arm comprises a casing 1 secured to the gramophone cabinet and supporting a revoluble member 3 consisting of two parts 3a, 3b, Fig. 4, connected together by a groove and tongue 27 and a pin 26, the part 3b being pressed upwardly by a spring 28. To the top of the member 3 is secured a rod 5 and to the lower end is attached a toothed segment 6, Fig. 2, on which are two projections 7, 8 which limit its rotation. The teeth of the segment 6 engage with a rack on a brake-block holder 10 which is pressed towards its operative position by a spring 11. A notch 12 on the holder 10 is adapted to be engaged by a catch 18 which swings about a pivot 16 against the action of a spring 17, Fig. 3. At its upper end the catch 18 is provided with two flaps 20, 21 which act as stops for an arm 23 pivoted to the catch 18 the flap 20 being provided with a regulating screw 22. The arm 23 is biased to the vertical position by a spring 25 and the regulating screw presses against a flange 24 on the arm 25. In operation, when the tone-arm is moved to position II, Fig. 1, at the beginning of a record groove it strikes against the upturned end 4 of the rod 5 so rotating the segment 6 that the holder 10 is withdrawn and the catch 18 engages in the notch 12. When at the end of playing the tone-arm reaches the position I, Fig. 1, it strikes against the arm 23 to rotate the catch 18 which comes out of the notch 12 and releases the holder 10 which, through the spring 11, presses the brake-block 13 against the turntable. At the same time the segment 6 and the rod 5 are returned to their original position. The arm 23 can be resiliently folded down to allow of the lid of a gramophone cabinet being closed, or the tone-arm being swung completely aside.
