Abstract: 729,980. Draught excluders. MUNDY, E., and WAITE, S. Feb. 23, 1954 [June 1, 1953], No. 15258/53. Class 20 (3). A draught-excluding means comprises flexible fluid-tight tubing 13, Fig. 1, lying in grooves 12 around the edges of a door 11 and a compressor unit 14 for supplying fluid to the tubing, the compressor 14 being so mounted that it is operated automatically by the door while it is closing to inflate the tubing and thus seal the gaps between the door and its surround. As shown a pair of units 14 are provided each comprising an air-tight bag 15 housed within a sector-shaped collapsible casing 16 which is secured between the inner edge 17 of the door 11  and the door post 18. Each door hinge 19 is formed as a unit with a casing 16. In a modification, Fig. 2, each bag 15 is housed within a box-like housing 20 and is acted upon by a plunger 21 operated by link 22 which is pushed inwardly by plate 28 when the door closes. The units 14 are sunk in the door at the edge 17. In a further form, Fig. 3, each unit 14 is screwed to the face of the door and plunger 21 is operated by link 23 connected to bracket 24 on the plunger and passing through horizontal slot 25 in the housing 20. The tubing 13 may be rubber or fabric and may have a longitudinal rib to improve the sealing. A flexible metal strip may be secured alongside the groove 12 so as to overlie the tubing 13. In modifications the compressor unit is a piston and cylinder assembly and the fluid supplied may be a liquid or gas other than air. A control knob or lever may render the compressor inoperative when required. According to the Provisional Specification a spring may be used to return the plunger to its original position on opening the door.

Abstract: 1,099,141. Magnetic data storage. PLESSEY-U.K. Ltd. April 13, 1965 [April 15, 1964], No. 15517/64. Heading H3B. In a magnetic core matrix plane there is at least one sense wire (two are illustrated) consisting of two conductors 13a, 13b and 14a, 14b arranged as a parallel-pair transmission line, each conductor diagonally linking an equal plurality of different cores in each row and an equal plurality of cores in each column. The sense wires pass diagonally from edge to edge of the matrix, and the two conductors of each line are short circuited at one end, 13c, 14c and connected across a terminating resistor 15 having its mid-point earthed, at the other end. The arrangement serves, when a core is selected by coincident currents in the address wires, to cancel spurious signals arising in the sense wires due to those cores which are subjected to a halfread pulse. The address wire driving signals are used to select the appropriate sense line, when reading out. The two sense wires alternatively may be connected in series to form a common sense conductor.

Filed: 1964-04-15
Abstract: 1,037,616. Semi-conductor devices. SIEMENS & HALSKE A.G. April 15, 1964 [April 22, 1963], No. 15533/64. Heading H1K. [Also in Divisions G1 and H3] In order to derive signals corresponding to pressure fluctuations an element is used which radiates energy the frequency of which is dependent on the pressure applied to the element. It is preferred to use an AIII/BV semiconductor diode as the element, a galliumarsenide diode giving radiation with a wavelength of the order of 8600A being suitable. The junction between an N-type zone 2 and a P-type zone 3 is forward biased by electrodes (not shown) and the P-side surface 5 and N-side surface 6, which are parallel, together with the end faces, form the reflecting surfaces of a resonator. Emitted coherent radiation leaves through one of the end faces. Applied pressure, indicated by the arrows 7 and 8, alters the frequency radiated. To derive an electrical output signal that is a function of the radiation frequency the radiation may be directed through an optical filter converting the frequency modulation into an amplitude modulation and thence to a photo-resistor or photo-diode. The pressure sensitive element may be close to, or spaced from, the detector. In the latter case a parabolic reflector may be used at one or both ends of the system.

In addition, an hydraulically - actuated tilt mechanism for rotating the scoop 10 in mountings on the arms 5 is manually controlled to move and hold the 'bucket in charging and discharging positions but is under automatic control during movement of the arms from above ihe front discharge position to the rear discharge position in order to maintain the scoop in such a position that the contents of the scoop are retained therein The arms 5 and a pair of pinions 7 are rigidly mounted on a shaft 6, the pinions 7 being engaged by racks 8. A single-acting ram 9 secured to the frame of the vehicle acts on each end of each rack to cause reciprocation of the associated rack.

Title: Improvements in activation analysis
Inventor: STARNES PETER EDWARD
IPC: G01N23/222
Filed: 1966-04-07
Abstract: 1,124,992. Activation analysis. HILGER & WATTS Ltd. April 6, 1967 [April 7, 1966], No. 15777/66. Heading G1A. A fluid or a solid suspension in a fluid is analyzed by circulating it round a closed loop system, activating it at one point in the system and measuring its activity at another point in the system. Fluid from a mixing tank 1 is pumped by a pump 2 through an activation conduit 3 provided with an Am/ Be neutron source 3a and if desired a moderator 3b and a measuring conduit 4 including a water cooled NaI/Tl scintillation counter 4a. From the measuring conduit the fluid passes through a gamma-ray density gauge of the type disclosed in Specification 1, 103, 562 back to the mixing tank 1. A larger time delay between activation and measurement may be introduced by changing over the valves 6a, 6b. A sample may be tested for silicon and fluorine, which when activated produce N16 (half life 7À4 seconds) and Al 28 (half life > 2 minutes) respectively, by making measurements with valves 6a and 6b in each position. The first measurement with a time delay of 3 seconds between activation and measurement will depend upon both N16 and A128, while the second measurement with a time delay of 40 seconds will depend on A128 alone. A sample may be tested for silicon and aluminium which both produce A128 on activation by making measurements with and without the moderator 3b. Silicon is only activated by neutrons > 3À9 Mev while aluminium is activated by thermal neutrons. Normally measurements are made when the activity has reached an equilibrium value, but if the time constant is long, the equilibrium value may be deduced from two or more non-equilibrium measurements. The scintillation counter may be standardized by exposing it to known radiation from the source 3a or an auxiliary source.

The striker pin is surrounded by an insulating tube D mounted in an extension C5 of the end cap C, to which is screwed a cap C6 that secures the disc in position. A guard E2 may be provided also for the disc. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown) the fusible element is surrounded by a gas-emitting perforated shroud which is secured at one end to the striker pin and at the other to a contact for the fusible element. The shroud is concentric in another gas-emitting shroud which replaces the insulating tube. In operation as shown in Fig. 5 a chamber K containing a latch manually operated to engage a bar M', Fig. 4 (not shown) is secured to the striker end of the fuse which is inserted in spring loaded trunnions Q<1> on a transmission system and swung into position by a pole inserted in a lever P which retains the bar M<1> in engagement with the latch and with a contact horn R. When the fusible element blows the striker pin trips the latch which releases the bar M' and thereby allows the fuse to drop out of the horn. The fuse is then removed by screwing an extension K3 on the chamber K into a pole and lifting it free of the trunnions Q'.

Abstract: 1,176,826. Weighing apparatus. KANE AIR SCALE CO. April 7, 1967 [June 30,1966], No.16019/67. Heading G1W. A pneumatic weighing apparatus comprises a weighing anvil 24 supported at the upper end of a housing 12, 14, 16, 18 by diaphragms 26, 33, 40, 54, and 62, which divide the housing into chambers 30, 42, 44, 68, and 63, the anvil 24 being movable downwardly by an applied load thereon to adjust a valve member 78 relatively to a nozzle 84 through which air supplied to the chamber 63 via a conduit 86 and a pressure regulator 92 may escape to the atmosphere. The conduit 86 also supplies air via a regulator 88 to the chamber 30 to apply pressure to the anvil 24 to balance the weight of a container for the material to be weighed. The pressure in the chamber 63, as indicated by a gauge 96, when a loaded container is placed on the anvil 24, is therefore proportional to the net weight. The gauge 96 may thus be calibrated in weight. The chambers 42, 44 contain a damping fluid.
