Title: Dispensing unit for liquid
IPC: B05B15/50
Filed: 1974-03-06
Abstract: 1453014 Reciprocating pumps P MESHBERG 6 March 1974 [8 March 1973] 10040/74 Heading F1A A hand-actuated container-mounted dispensing pump comprises a plunger stem assembly 22, 24 reciprocable in a pumping chamber 14 and inlet chamber 16 and biased upwardly by a spring into the position shown, in which an outlet passage opening 48 is closed by a piston 30, and an inlet valve 28 formed on the plunger stem is open to admit liquid from the container into pumping chamber 14 via dip tube 20 and chamber 16, a container vent passage 54, 10 being closed by plunger stem flange 40 abutting sealing disc 50. On downward movement of the plunger stem, the vent passage is opened, and outlet passage opening 48 also is opened due to the plunger stem sliding through piston 30. When plunger stem flange 40 abuts piston 30, the discharge stroke begins, inlet valve 28 having been closed during the initial plunger stem movement. At the end of the discharge stroke, the plunger stem is released and moves upwardly relative to piston 30 to close  outlet opening 48, the plunger and piston assembly then moving upwardly to draw liquid into chamber 14 on opening of inlet valve 28. Vent passage 54 may be formed by knurled portions on pump housing portion 6, or by a cut-away (56), Fig. 6 (not shown), in the housing, either the seal 50 being deflected by the plunger stem to open the passage, as shown, or the flange 40 moving away from a clearance through the seal, (Fig. 6). The piston may be an integral plastics moulding, as shown, or may comprise a resilient disc (64, Fig. 6) with flange members (66, 68) attached above and below. In Fig. 7 (not shown) the piston has an annular head (60) on its lower flange for sealingly engaging the cylinder wall, the inlet valve is constituted by a tapered portion (25) of the plunger stem, and the pump housing is supported in the container cap by an adaptor member (80), the vent passage being defined by knurls formed on the engaging surfaces of the housing or adaptor. The container cap is secured to the adaptor on the housing by crimping. In Fig. 17 (not shown), an actuator button (102) on the plunger stem has a spring-loaded outer sleeve which is depressed by the user to initially compress the spring (112), detents (120, 122, 124) preventing downward movement of the button until released by the sleeve, whereupon the spring then effects the discharge stroke of the button, an orifice (109) in the sleeve aligning with the button spray orifice (104) during actuation.

Abstract: 1,201,541. 6-Aminopenicillanic acid; penicillin. AMERICAN HOME PRODUCTS CORP. 1 March, 1968 [13 Dec., 1967], No. 10097/68. Heading C2A. A dry organic solvent solution of an aliphatic amine derivative of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (A), particularly suitable for direct use in preparing penicillins by reaction with a silylating agent followed by reaction with an acylating agent, is prepared by mixing an aqueous solution of 6-aminopenicillanic acid, or a salt thereof, with a secondary or tertiary amine (said amine having at least 12 carbon atoms in the molecule and a molecular weight of at least 185) dissolved in a water-immiscible organic solvent devoid of hydroxyl groups to form a two-phase water and organic solvent mixture, separating the organic solvent phase containing the corresponding aliphatic amine derivative of 6-aminopenicillanic acid from the water phase, and then subjecting said organic phase containing the corresponding aliphatic amine derivative of 6-aminopenicillanic acid to a drying treatment. Drying may be by the addition of a drying agent, e.g. anhydrous magnesium sulphate or by azeotropic distillation. The pH of the reaction mixture is maintained at pH 3À5 to 6À5 by the addition of a mineral acid, e.g. hydrochloric. The amine may be dihexylamine, di-n-octylamine, di-2-ethylhexylamine, dilaurylamine, "Amberlite" LA-1, trioctylamine, tributylamine, dimethyloctadecylamine, trioctyldecylamine, trilaurylamine or trihexylamine. A suitable solvent is methylene chloride. The reaction may be carried out in an inert atmosphere. A penicillin such as ampicillin is produced by silylating the above solution (A), and then acylating the silyl derivative using, e.g. the appropriate chloride hydrochloride as in Specification 1,201,542.

IPC: B27J1/02
Filed: 1917-07-12
Abstract: 117,302. Lloyd, M. B. July 12, 1917. Wickerwork. - Reed wickerwork and like articles that are of the stake-and-strand type and have shapes that are difficult to produce by direct weaving, are made by weaving the reeds &c. into simple forms and then re-shaping the woven material into the desired forms. The material may be moistened before being re-shaped, and the finished articles may be coated with glue, shellac, &c. In order to produce a tapered article of the shape shown in plan in Fig. 28, the material is woven in the form of a circular tube shown in side elevation in Fig. 10, and is then shaped or bent to the required form, the ends 17 of the reed or wire stakes 15 being bent over and inserted into the fabric before or after the shaping operation. In order to preserve the correct shape of the article until it has set permanently to the required form, restraining-devices such as wires &c. 105, Fig. 28, may be temporarily applied; or the article may be held for a time between a former, Fig. 32, and a covering-frame, Fig. 33. The tube, Fig. 10, may be woven by hand upon a former comprising guides 8, Fig. 3, arranged between lower and upper rings 6, 7, the ring 6 being formed with holes to receive the stakes. The former is mounted on a vertical shaft 10 capable of turning in a support 9. In order to cover with wickerwork a baby-carriage bodyframe such as that shown in Fig. 1, a woven tube similar to that shown in Fig. 10 is drawn over the body-frame as indicated in Fig. 12, and the fabric is then drawn into its correct shape and secured in place by tacks &c. driven into the parts 2, 3, Figs. 1 and 12. The projecting ends 17, Fig. 12, are afterwards bent over and inserted into the wickerwork. If the baby-carriage body is open at one end, as shown in Fig. 27, the fabric is woven tubular and is cut vertically before applying it to the frame, the cut portions 58 being folded over and secured to the parts 52<a>, 53<a> of the frame. The material employed for making the fabric may consist of artificial reed made from paper &c.

Abstract: 1410021 Automatic current regulation FERRANTI Ltd 2 March 1973 [4 March 1972]  10199/72 Heading G3X [Also in Divisions H1 and H3] A constant current source comprises a multiemitter NPN transistor T3 with one emitter connected to its base and via a resistor R1 to a first voltage and its collector connected to a second voltage point lower than the first voltage so the transistor works inversely, the current drawn by each further emitter being dependant on the current through the resistor R 1 in current mirror fashion. When constructed in integrated circuit form the source may be made by the so called "collector-diffusion integration" process (CDI). The ratio of the current in each further emitter to the current in the one emitter depend on the relative base-emitter junction areas. A plurality of further emitters may be connected together to increase this ratio.
