Title: A fastening device
IPC: F16B15/00
Filed: 1966-07-08
Abstract: A fastening device has a coating including a protective liquid on those of its surfaces adapted to be abutted under pressure against parts to be fastened together, the coating comprising a thin film of an adhesive material to which a pustular layer of protective-liquid-containing, pressure rupturable capsules is applied and a superimposed thin film of abrasion resistant material draped over the adhered capsules.  The term "fastenings" includes rivets, bolts, screws, nails, wedges, hooks, studs, eye-bolts, cleats, and spikes.  The liquid may be anti-corrosion and sealant materials with or without lubricating properties and may be radiant or responsive to radiation.  The liquid may be an oil or oil solution or dispersion or active protective material in an oil-vehicle e.g. zinc yellow dispersed in an oily evaporable material such as toluene, xylene. Methods of encapsulating the liquid are desscribed.  The contents of the capsules may be 90% of the weight of the capsule.  The adhesive material may be a lacquer comprising an alkyd resin, shellas, methyl methacrylate.  The abrasion resistant material may be an acrylic polymer, an alkyd resin, nitrocellulose, polystyrene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride.  The abutment surfaces of the fastening device may be sprayed with the adhesive material and the surfaces dusted with the capsules while the adhesive material is still tacky so that the capsules embed themselevs therein to a certain degree of depth, a solution of the abrasion resistant film then being sprayed over the capsules.  In the Examples: (1) capsules comprising a liquid primer, including a liquid vehicle in which zinc yellow is dispersed and a film-forming material dissolved in an oily solvent, encapsulated in an organic film-forming polymeric material are prepared and dusted on to the abutment surfaces of rivets precoated with alkyd resin, shellac, methyl methacrylate.  The ing then cured, a solution of a butyl methacrylate copolymer then being sprayed over the capsules; (2) a lubricating petroleum oil is used in place of the zinc yellow primer of (1); (3) the materials of (1) and (2) used to prepare the capsules are coloured by dyes or pigments to serve as proof of the presence of these materials in a joint either before or after rapture of the capsules; (4) radioactive tracer materials e.g. carbon 14, tritium, are included in the contents of the capsule, or in the wall of the capsule or both, so that the released protective material on rupture of the capsules can be sensed with say sensitive film material; (5) a fluorescent material is included in the capsule-forming material to permit the sensing of the pressure of the materials in a joint.

Title: Improvements in apparatus for placing cop tubes upon the spindles of spinning and the like machines
IPC: D01H9/18
Filed: 1922-11-11
Abstract: 204,575. Jagger, F. Nov. 11, 1922. Tube-applying apparatus. - In apparatus for placing cop-tubes upon the spindles of spinning and like machines, wherein a tube-carrying barrel 1, Figs. 1 and 2, is operated by a slide 3, a sliding catch in the form of a spring-steel strip 4 is arranged when in one position to lock the slide and in its other position to allow the slide to move freely. The curvature of the strip 4 is greater than that of either the barrel 1 or its holding-strap 2 and it bears forcibly against the barrel on lines 5, 6 and against the strap 2 on a line 7 thereby setting up considerable frictional resistance to movement. The end of the strip 4 is cranked at 8 and formed as a ring 9, and in one position it is entirely clear of the slide 3. When moved to the position shown however, the ring 9 is in the path of a projection 10 on the slide and thereby limits its movement. The strap 2 and strip 4 may be arranged on either the front or rear side of the barrel 1. In a modificatiun, a short shaft 14, Fig. 5, is supported on the slide 3 and a cam member 16, 17 provided thereon, the part 16 being adapted to register respectively with cavities 19, 20 inthe slide-guide 18 when the slide is in its end positions. A flat surface is provided on the part 17 which engages with one side of a slot 21 in the slide 3 when the part 16 is disengaged from the cavities 19, 20, the said flat surface retaining the member in its disengaged position until positively turned therefrom. In a further modification, a cranked member 22, Fig. 7, whose ends bind frictionally in straps 24, is locked in the end positions of the slide by pegs 23; and when it is desired to operate the slide the member 22 is forced off the holding-peg and turned to lie on the opposite side of the slide 3.

Title: Method and apparatus for arresting a missile
IPC: B64F1/02
Filed: 1966-07-11
Abstract: 1,141,222. Aircraft arresting gear. E. W. BLISS CO. 11 July, 1966 [27 July, 1965], No. 30966/66. Heading B7G. [Also in Divisions F2 and F3] A test missile 13 is allowed a period of free flight following an upward launch and then arrested for recovery. The period of free flight is determined by the slack in a loose bridle 34, 35 made of tape woven from synthetic yarn such as nylon, which is hitched to the sides of the launching tube 12 by connectors 40. Additional tape 29, 30 joined by these connectors is paid out from two reels 27, 28 at a rate sufficient to prevent excessive tape stress, the rate of tape payout being reduced after the reels have accelerated to the missile velocity thereby to slow the missile to a stalling speed. The rate of payout is again increased as the missile approaches zero velocity to relieve the tape stress, and the payout is halted at the apogee. The missile has guides which run up guide cables (16, 17), Fig. 2 (not shown), connected to a crane boom 18 whereat the missile is checked and from which it can be lowered. In another form, a single arresting tape (T), Fig. 12 (not shown), is led rearwardly from the missile to a brake (251) and is hitched to the loose bridle (5). The plate type friction brake, Figs. 6 and 7 (not shown), is adjusted by hydraulic cylinders (60) and has a low inertia drum (27). The tape drum drives a pump (37) in an hydraulic system, Figs. 9 and 10 (not shown), controlling the brake through a pressure release valve (139). This valve is controlled by a cam (151) profiled in accordance with the desired arresting programme and also driven from the tape drum. Initially the tapes 29, 30 are kept just taut by a light brake pressure supplied from a pressurized tank (113) which operates a shuttle valve (119) controlling the brake supply line (121F). When the snatch occurs, the pump pressure reverses the shuttle valve and supplies the brake through a line (134F). The decreasing diameter of the unwound tape causes an automatic compensation which maintains the tape tension constant during a braking period represented by cam portion (A). A following cam portion (B) allows the valve (139) to open and the brakes are released as the missile stalls to avoid loading the boom 18. A third cam portion (C) slightly closes the valve (139) again to check the runout.

Filed: 1970-06-30
Abstract: 1,249,599. Moulding edge strips for conveyer belts. G. PIEMONT. 30 June, 1970 [6 Feb., 1970], No. 31658/70. Heading B5A. An edge strip for a conveyer belt, which strip has an L-shaped cross-section and one limb of which is corrugated, is made by wrapping the strip around the surface of a drum 2 provided with a set of helically disposed fingers 3 upon which one of the limbs of the strip is supported. External jacket 4 having an inwardly directed helically disposed set of fingers 5 is closed about the drum and the drum then moved upwardly relative to the jacket to cause the fingers to interdigitate, this in turn causing the limb of the strip supported upon the fingers 3 to be corrugated. Finally, the assembly is placed in a curing oven and the strip cured to retain its new shape. In one embodiment, the drum is carried by a carriage 31 which is reciprocable along rails 32, carried by a table 33, between a feed position at which the strip is applied to it and a corrugating position within a frame 10 also carried by the table. The carriage carries a pin 7 for locating the drum upon the carriage, rotation of the drum upon the carriage being prevented by the engagement of a lug carried by the carriage with a notch in the periphery of the drum. The carriage also carries a jack 21 whereby the drum can be raised relative to the jacket which in its operative position is located upon the frame 10. The drum is guided by radial arms 22, which engage columns 16, 16<SP>1</SP> surrounding the jacket, and by a central upper projection 23 which engages a tubular boss 24 carried by arms 25 connected to the upper end of the jacket. In use, the carriage is tilted at the feed position until the drum is horizontal and the projection 23 is supported by a drive means 34. The strip is then applied to the drum and the carriage re-orientated until the drum is upright and then moved along rails 32 into the open jacket. The jacket is closed and locked about the drum, the drum raised and held in its raised corrugating position by a pin which engages aligned apertures in the projection 23 and boss 24 and the assembly thus formed lifted into a curing chamber 37. During curing a second carriage and drum are loaded at the feeding station. After curing, the jacket is removed, the carriage moved back to turntable 30 and thence displaced laterally to a take-off station, and the second carriage and drum moved along rails 32 to the platform 10 and jacket 4 to effect corrugation.

[Also in Group XXVIII] A machine for making helically-seamed pipe comprises two rollers 1, 2 adapted to bear against each other and arranged to draw strip material 4 fed therebetween at an angle substantially a right angle relative to the axes of the rollers, a substantially annular guide means 10 with an inner diameter corresponding to the outer diameter of the pipe to be made and formed by a narrow support arranged to run in a convolution corresponding to the pitch of the helix into which the strip is to be bent and against which the rollers push the strip so that the latter is moved along the inner surface of the guide means and forms a ring, and a member 12 provided on the end of the guide means near to where the seaming takes place which is adapted to act on the strip coiling about the roller 1 in a manner such that the strip is helically bent for seaming. As shown, the strip material 4 is introduced between rollers after previously having the marginal edges preformed for mechanical interlocking. Along one side is a turned-up flange 5 and along the other side a folded-over flange 6 with a downwardly opening channel for accommodating the flange 5. The roller 2 has a groove 7 for accommodating the flange 5 and at the other end a seaming member 8 is provided, which cooperates with the lower roller to lock together the interengaging marginal edges of the strip. A bar 12 is secured to one end of the guide means so that a helical slot is formed at that end thereof, which guides the flange 5 on the strip so that it will mate in the channel in the folded-over flange 6. The rollers may function also as welding means. The strip material may be metal or plastic ribbon and the seam edges may be secured together by welding to provide an overlap joint or a butt-weld. If a pipe with an overlap joint is to be produced, the outer edge of the guide means has a helical shoulder inclined towards the roller which forces the strip to form a convolution.
