A thermographic transfer process comprising assembling a receptor sheet, a heat-sensitive material containing a heat-transferable layer in contact with the receptor sheet, and an original with infrared transmissive image areas and infrared reflective non-image areas, exposing to infrared radiation to imagewise transfer the transferable layer and produce a positive image on the receptor sheet. The original may be produced by coating a polyester support with a polymeric layer containing a metal (e. g. aluminium or gold) or vacuum depositing the metal on the support and then removing the metal layer in the image areas. The heat-transferable material either contains an infrared absorbing material (e.g. carbon) in the transferable wax layer or in the support.

Abstract: 999, 770. Controlling fluid flow. BOWLES ENGINEERING CORPORATION. Nov. 26, 1963 [Nov. 26, 1962], No. 46705/63. Heading G3H. Flow of fluid, which may be continuous or intermittent, from a nozzle 26 is normally directed to an outlet 19 due to boundary layer action along a wall 23 but is switched to an outlet 20 by a transverse flow of control fluid from either or both of passages 16,17. A cusp 30 at the junction of a curved wall 22 with a wall of the outlet 20 scoops off a portion of the fluid which flows in a circular path 31 to provide a feedback for returning the main flow to the outlet 19 when the control flow ceases. The arrangement may be such that control flows in both passages 16,17 are necessary to switch the main flow. The number of control passages may be varied, and more than one main nozzle 26 may be provided. Also, the wall 23 may be set back, as shown dotted, so that boundary layer action is not employed, in which case the nozzle 26 is positioned to direct flow into the outlet 19. In a modification, the two passages 16, 17 merge into a single nozzle in the wall 23, and a vent may be provided just upstream of this nozzle whereby the flow through the nozzle is insufficient to deflect the main flow unless there is a control flow in each passage.

Abstract: 1400535 Spray carburetters FORD MOTOR CO Ltd 13 Oct 1972 [29 Nov 1971] 47327/72 Heading F1B In a carburetter having a throttle valve rotatable from a closed position 34 through an idle position 36 to an open position and an idle mixture passage 26, the throttle control means comprises adjustable stop means positionable in the path of a throttle valve lever 38 to determine the degree of throttle closure according to engine operation. The stop comprises a first member movable in response to engine start-up to a first position in which it limits the throttle closure to idle position 36 and movable, on engine shut-down, to a position permitting throttle closure to position 34 to prevent 'running- on'. In addition a second means 60 is movable to a position 68 which limits the throttle closure to a fast idle position 37. The parts are shown in the engine-off condition position for fast idle starting. Cranking of the engine causes solenoid 43 to move armature 48 to position 52 whilst camming lever 60 to position 66 thereby permitting throttle closure to position 36 when the throttle is released. When the solenoid 43 is de-energized the armature 48 is retracted to the anti-'running-on' position.

A goods wagon has a fully openable roof comprising two side parts 1, Fig. 4, inclined upwardly towards the centre of the wagon from the walls 6 thereof, and a centre part 2 fitting between the edges of the parts 1, the part 2 being movable from between the parts 1 to a position where it does not overlie the floor area of the wagon, and the parts 1 are pivoted above the top flanges 5 of the walls 6 so as to be movable from the closed positions to positions just outside the walls 6. The part 2 is in the form of a shutter which can be wound on to a drum at one end wall 9 of the wagon, the edges of the shutter sliding in drainable grooves in the opposing edges of the parts 1. Shafts 7 mounted above the flanges 5 carry at each end bearer levers 3 pivotally connected to the parts 1. The side parts 1 are also pivoted to rocking levers 4 also pivoted to the end walls 9 of the wagon, the parts 1 being counterbalanced by springs 28 connected between extensions 27 of the levers 3 and the side walls 6. The shafts 7 carry at one end toothed gear sectors 26 rockable, to swing the roof parts 1 outwardly, by rack portions 25 of bars 24 pivoted at their lower ends to a vertically movable rack 23, on the end wall. The rack 23 is movable by a pinion 22 and a hand crank operable shaft 16 from either side of the wagon. The shutter 2 is wound on to the drum by a sprocket 19, chain 18, tensions rollers 21, a sprocket 17 and a hand-crank operable shaft 15, from either side of the vehicle. Pressure devices 30 may be provided above the roller to act resiliently against the shutter and the roller. A locking device 29 is provided between the rack 23 and the shaft 15 to ensure that the latter can only be operated if the side parts 1 are closed or to permit displacement of the rack 23 only if the shutter 2 is completely open and rolled on to the roller. In a simpler form described with reference to Fig. 6 (not shown) the side parts 1 are directly pivoted to the bars pivoted to the rack 23 and the levers 3,4 and the sectors 26 are eliminated.

Title: Instrument for indicating or checking the angular position  of a surface
IPC: G01C9/12
Filed: 1974-11-12
Abstract: 1473375 Levels L A BERGKVIST 12 Nov 1974 48893/74 Heading G1F An instrument for the indication or checking of the angular position of a flat surface comprises a stationary part 10 and a movable part 16 pivoted thereto about an axis which is not coincident with the mass centre of part 16, both parts 10, 16 having at least one pattern of equally wide spaced parallel lines separated by interspaces of substantially the same width as the lines. The interspaces on at least one of the parts 10, 16 is transparent and the parts 10, 16 overlap at least over an area where the or each line pattern of one part is visible through the interspaces of an associated line pattern of the other, the patterns forming at least one MoirÚ pattern. The width of the lines and interspaces of part 10 differs from that of part 16 and the MoirÚ pattern is in the form of lines and interspaces of greater width than either of these of parts 10, 16, the angular position thereof providing an accurate indication of the angular position of an object against which a straight edge of part 10 is placed. One or more line patterns may be adjusted by applying the patterns on thin transparent discs to allow initial setting before glueing in position; alternatively a line pattern on part 10 may be adjusted by a set screw. A cavity in which part 16 is movable may be at least partially filled with a liquid to reduce friction at the pivotal axis. In the embodiment shown, the orientation of part 16 relative to part 10 may be fixed by means of a plate spring 20 and cam member 26, the spring 20 acting on member 22 which is fixed to part 10 by a leafspring or membrane 24. Alternatively, for remote control, a Bowden cable or electromagnets may be employed. An arbitrary predetermined angle may be examined and measured by using the instrument in conjunction with an adjustable angle instrument or bevelling rule. The line patterns on the parts 10, 16 comprise either both straight or both curved lines which may be visible through a window, and in the case of straight lines, arranged, in the equilibrium position so as to give a Moire pattern whose lines are parallel to the, or a, straight surface of the part 10. The window may be in two separate portions each of which allows observation of patterns which are mirror images of the other so as to accentuate presence of an angle other than the horizontal or vertical. The reading of the MoirÚ pattern may be facilitated by lenses or prisms.
