Title: Improvements relating to footwear
IPC: A43B23/22
Filed: 1938-01-04
Abstract: 508,689. Boots and shoes. PEACH, C. F. Jan. 4, 1938, No. 200. [Class 17 (ii)] A shank stiffener 2 of steel or other material is attached by a tubular rivet 3 at or adjacent both ends to an inner sole 1. A shank reinforcement piece which covers the heel seat and shank, and also an outer sole, if desired, may also be attached to the inner sole, by rivets passing through those tubular rivets. A limited amount of play may be provided between these rivets and the tubular rivets 3 to give an increased flexibility. The components are in their moulded condition when attached, and the inner sole and shank stiffener may be moulded to shape by applying it to a mould having a spigot or spigots complementally arranged with respect to one or both of the tubular rivets. Where both the front and rear ends of the stiffener 2 are riveted to the inner sole 1 and shank reinforcement, the rearward rivet may extend through the outer sole also, under the heel, the forward rivet being clenched on the shank reinforcement so as not to show on the outer sole.

Abstract: 764,026. Cables. COMPAGNIE GENERALE D'ELECTRICITE. Jan. 5, 1955 [Jan. 6, 1954], No. 292/55. Class 36. In a high-tension cable comprising a conductor 1, a layer 2 of semi-conducting paper and layers 7 of helically applied paper tapes, the innermost layer 4 of which has a semi-conduct. ing coating 5 in contact with the outermost layer 2, the gaps 6 between the turns of the layer 4 are bounded by or filled with semiconducting material. After applying the layers 2 to the conductor 1 a semi-conductive paste may be extruded therearound. Application of layer 4 causes this paste to flow and fill the gaps 6 (Fig. 4, not shown). The remaining paper layers 7 are then wound on. Alternatively, the tape forming the layer 4 has additional semiconductive coatings 9 on its edges. The paper tape for the inner layer 7 carries a semi-conductive band 10 along its central portion and is applied so that this band 10 overlies the gaps 6 and is in electrical contact with coatings 9. The outermost layers of insulation may be similarly formed and enclosed within semiconductive paper layers underlying the cable sheath. Specification 726,305 is referred to.

Abstract: 561,096. Automatic exchange systems. AUTOMATIC TELEPHONE & ELECTRIC CO., Ltd., GILLINGS, C., and MURRAY, L. J. Jan. 8, 1943, No. 386. [Class 40 (iv)] In a system in which the outlets at a cross-bar group selector stage are tested by a common control circuit, the testing switch in the latter, instead of having separate leads to each of the (200) test wires as in the system described in Specification 560,732, has leads only to the (20) links of the cross-bar. When a selection is to be made, the prepare magnet of the wanted group is operated and then the hold magnets of all idle links. The common control switch then tests outlets in the wanted group over the crossbar contacts, the hold magnet of the selected outlet remaining energized and the remainder being released. Details operation. When the circuit shown is seized, the common control relays A, B, C, BB and the individual select relay 1GSP and relay 1GSR are operated as described in the prior Specification and the thousands digit is registered on switch TD which causes the operation of the corresponding select magnet such as 1GTP. In the present case, however, the relapse of C at the end of the digit energizes a relay NR which operates all the hold magnets such as 1GTH of idle link circuits. Switch OC then hunts under control of KR,<3> KRR over its bank 3 and contacts of the cross-bar switch for an idle outlet in the wanted direction and, when this is found, energizes over its bank 2 the corresponding hold magnet such as 1GSH at the incoming side of the selected link. This holds the outgoing hold magnet of this link, the others being released when NR is released by the relapse of N on the ensuing restoration of the switch TD.

Abstract: 270,602. Seigle, P. G., and Dean, G. E. Jan. 7, 1927. Roller mills; systems for reducing coal. - In breaking coal, the lumps of coal are subjected to a breaking force while submerged in water or other liquid; the pieces of coal drop through the liquid and are delivered for any subsequent separation. A tank 1 contains oppositely-rotated toothed rollers 4 mounted on shafts 3 below the discharge end of a hopper 2. The rear portion of the bottom 6 of the tank is inclined downwardly, and the lower portions of the side walls of the tank and the bottom of the tank form the boot of an upwardly-extending conveyer casing 14.
