Patent GB-8924936-D0 (GB)
Title: Radiant electric heaters
IPC: H05B3/00
Filed: 1989-11-04
Abstract: A radiant electric heater (10) has two coiled resistance wire heating elements (22,24) each connected to one terminal (N) of a power supply via respective rectifiers. These rectifiers are each made up of two like-poled arms of a bridge rectifier (34) connected in parallel, and they are arranged to allow current through one heating element (22) on positive-going half-cycles of the power supply waveform, and through the other heating element (24) on negative-going half-cycles. The elements are rated for continuous power dissipation under these circumstances. A PTC thermistor (36) is connected between the ends of the heating elements connected to the rectifiers. Optionally an NTC thermistor (40) can be connected in series with the PTC thermistor. Upon initial energisation the PTC thermistor is a near short-circuit, so current flows through both heating elements on both polarity half-cycles, dissipating twice their rated power. The elements increase in temperature more quickly than if they were initially energised at only their rated power, so the visible response of the elements to energisation is faster. Meanwhile the PTC thermistor increases in resistance owing to self-heating, thereby removing the short-circuit after a few seconds, reducing the power dissipation in the elements to its normal level and protecting them from excessive operating temperatures.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine has at least one set of first and second cylinders (12,14), the first cylinder (12) having a larger swept volume than the second cylinder (14), and respective first and second pistons (16,18) movable in the cylinders. The pistons are coupled together such that they are movable in the cylinders in a cyclic manner at the same frequency. An air inlet (24) and an exhaust outlet open into the first cylinder and a fuel injector (34) provides fuel to the second cylinder. A combustion space (20) is also provided which communicates with both cylinders during at least a portion of the expansion stroke. The second piston has a crown (35) and a body portion (19), with the crown being spaced from and connected to the body portion and having an edge (37) which is relatively small in the axial direction compared to the distance between the crown and the body portion in the axial direction. The combustion space (20) is defined between the piston crown and body portion and a side wall (14a) of the second cylinder. The gap (128) between the crown edge (37) and the cylinder wall (14a) serves to inhibit ingression of fuel into the combustion space (20) until towards the end of the compression stroke. Access means (30) associated with the second cylinder for admitting fuel and/or air to the second cylinder during the induction stroke comprises a port (33) opening into the second cylinder and a valve (31) for controlling port. <IMAGE>

Patent GB-9319346-D0 (GB)
Title: Pipe coupling
IPC: F16L47/02
Filed: 1993-09-18
Abstract: The invention relates to pipe couplings and particularly to apparatus for connecting adjacent ends of plastics pipes, the connection of fittings to pipe ends, or the connection together of pipe fittings. Plastics pipes and fittings are in common use. In the critical area of the supply of gas it is traditionally so that pipe ends and fittings are fusion-welded, by butt fusion or by electrofusion techniques. In the not so sensitive areas of water supply and electricity and telecommunication fields, the connection of plastics pipes and fittings is not so critical, albeit that a good joint is required. This has led to the creation of so-called spin welding techniques where a coupling sleeve (15) is caused to rotate around a pipe end/fitting (1) with friction melting of the interface which, on cooling, creates a weld. The object of the invention is to provide apparatus that is simple and effective, an objective that is met by a construction comprising drive mechanism adapted to engage the coupling sleeve and impart a rotary motion thereto, said drive mechanism being further adapted to apply a radially inward force to said coupling sleeve, whereby to ensure contact between said coupling sleeve and the pipe end(s)/fitting(s) during rotation of the sleeve.

Date Jul. 4, 1996A ratchet wrench comprises an output drive member (13,17) rotatable about a first axis, a drive housing (15) containing the output drive member, and a handle (14) on the drive housing for rotating the drive housing about the first axis. A rotary member (24) within the handle is rotatable about a second axis and a drive ring (21) extends around the output drive member. A coupling means (25) couples the rotary member to the drive ring so that rotation of the rotary member about the second axis causes rotation of the drive ring about the output drive member. The wrench also includes primary ratchet means (17, 42) for selectively unidirectionally coupling the output drive member to the housing, and secondary ratchet means (23, 43) for selectively unidirectionally coupling the output drive member to the rotary member through the drive ring whereby the output drive member (13, 37) can be rotated in a selected direction either by rotation of the handle 14 or by rotation of the rotary member (24).

Title: Fastener for corrugated sheeting
IPC: F16B43/02
Filed: 1996-08-29
Abstract: A fastener 10 for securing corrugated sheeting 40 to a structural support 42 comprises a spacer 12, a washer 14 and a fixing 16, the spacer 12 comprising a body in the form of an axially collapsible cylindrical sleeve 18. The sleeve 18 has a slit along its length and is castellated around its upper and lower ends to form teeth 22 which are separated by intervening notches 23. As the fixing 16 is tightened it engages with the upper end of the spacer 12. As the fixing 16 is tightened further the spacer 12 partially collapses to prevent stripping of the thread in the supporting structure 42. This allows for the reaction time of the operator of the tightening means by letting the fixing 16 move into the supporting structure 42 while the fixing 16 is decelerating. The castellations at the lower end of the spacer also act as cutting teeth 22 to cut through the corrugated sheeting.

Title: A portable device
IPC: G09G3/36
Filed: 1998-12-31
Abstract: Functionality relating to the user interface of a handportable device is controlled in dependence on a comparison of a present circumstance of the device with a threshold level. In a radio telephone, backlighting of a display and of a keypad may be controlled in response to a light detector and/or a battery level detector. The backlights may be disabled if the ambient light level is above a first threshold and may be fully on if the surrounding light level is below a lower second threshold. The backlight level may be inversely proportional to ambient level when the ambient level is between the first and second threshold. Instead of directly measuring ambient light level, it may be estimated according to date, time of day, and location. If dialling is a priority, a display backlight may be disabled when battery level; falls below a first threshold, and a keypad backlight may also be disabled when battery level falls below a lower second threshold. If dialling is not a priority, the display and keypad backlights may be disabled when the battery level falls below the first threshold, and the display may also be turned off when the battery level falls below the second threshold. In an alternative embodiment, the user can set the backlighting to function in a desired manner for different operating environments, such as outdoor, meeting, silent and office, (Fig. 10).

Title: A measurement method and measurement apparatus
IPC: G01J3/45
Filed: 1999-02-17
Abstract: An interferometer (1) is arranged to form a first interference fringe pattern comprising at least ten interference fringes; recording an image of said first interference fringe pattern; perturbing an optical path in the interferometer (1) to form a second interference fringe pattern comprising at least ten interference fringes; and combining an image of said second interference fringe pattern with the recorded image of the first interference fringe pattern to produce a further image comprising a moiré fringe pattern arising from a difference or differences between the first and second interference fringe patterns. The combining step involves subtraction (4) of digital images. Different wavelengths and interferometers are used: Michelson, Mach-Zehnder, Fizeau, Twyman-Green. In this new approach, all the errors of a poor quality, misaligned system are accepted and then eliminated by the combination process, producing a moiré fringe pattern. The method enables very large aperture optical systems for traditional and engineering interferometers to be constructed from inexpensive and basic components.
