Title: Improvements in and relating to Gas-Cooled Nuclear Reactors
Inventor: BENNETT JOHN CHARLES
IPC: G21C1/00
Filed: 1967-01-04
Abstract: 1,164,610. Gas-cooled reactors. ATOMIC POWER CONSTRUCTIONS Ltd. 4 Jan., 1967, No. 497/67. Heading G6C. A reactor comprises, within a pressure vessel 1, a graphite core 2 surrounded by an inverted cup-shaped biological shield 3 in turn surrounded by an inverted cup-shaped partition 4. Coolant gas from heat exchangers 5 is forced by circulators 6 upwardly between the shield 3 and partition 4, part of this gas flowing downwardly through passages 9 in the shield 3 and the space between the shield and a partition 2a to a plenum 8 beneath the core 2. The other part of the gas is directed by baffles 16 attached to charge tubes 13 to flow along the undersurface of the top of the partition 4 and cool the latter, Fig. 2. The coolant gas then descends through the gaps provided between the baffles 16 and also in the central space provided by charge tubes 13a not having the baffles and passes downwardly through passages (not shown) in the core 2 to the plenum 8. The coolant gas now rises through the core over fuel elements contained therein and leaves the charge tubes 13, 13a through openings 12 whence it flows over the heat exchangers 5. The baffles 16, which are illustrated in detail in Fig. 4 (not shown), each comprises a squareshaped horizontal top plate, through which the charge tube 13 extends, and four vertical sides depending from the top plate, the bottom of the box-like structure being open.

Inventor: LAKE GEORGE WASHINGTON
IPC: F42B33/02
Filed: 1917-01-10
Abstract: 115,859. Lake, G. W., and Smith, F. W. Jan. 10, 1917. Explosives. -- A special process for loading shells with explosives consists in placing a shell 21, Fig. 4, in a tank 15, heating it by admitting hot water to the tank, filling the shell with explosive through a cylinder 23, compressing the explosive by a ram 32 operated by an hydraulic piston 36 while air escapes from the shell by a bypass 28, and cooling the shell by admitting cold water to the tank. A branch pipe 55 serves to supply molten explosive to the apparatus. To permit the insertion and removal of the shell from the tank, the upper part 34 of the apparatus is unbolted and moved aside by a hoisting-gear 47, Fig. 2. The operations are controlled from outside the loadind room 39 by means of valves 41, 51, 52. An oven is provided in the loading room to heat the shells beforehand.

Title: Improvements relating to vehicles with clearance regulating apparatus
IPC: B60G17/033
Filed: 1966-01-06
Abstract: 1,078,543. Adjusting vehicle height. DAIMLER BENZ A.G. Jan. 6, 1966 [Jan. 12, 1965], No. 682/66. Heading B7D. A vehicle has automatic height regulating means comprising one or more shock absorbers 14 between the body and wheels which are alternatively connectible to a high pressure accumulator 30 when the body is heavily laden to increase the body height and to a low pressure accumulator or reservoir 37 when the body is lightly laden, the shock absorbers acting as pumps to deliver pressure medium to the high pressure accumulator 30 when the body is heavily laden. The body height is sensed by an equalizing lever 26 connected to a spool control valve 24 and to extensions 28 of wheel carrying arms 12. When the body is low the upper land of the valve spool closes the end of a passage 22 and each shock absorber piston 16 draws hydraulic medium from the reservoir 37 through a non-return valve 40 as it moves downwards in its cylinder 15 and as it moves upwards pumps the medium through a non- return valve 34 into the accumulator 30, the increasing pressure acting on the piston 16 to supplement the support of the suspension springs and raise the body. In the " normal " range of body heights the passages 22 and 29 communicate through a groove 42 of the valve 24 thereby preventing further pumping action. When the body is too high, an extension 41 of the valve spool opens the valve 40 permitting the medium in the shock absorbers to return to the reservoir 37 thereby lowering the body.

Hot air (at 50-60‹ C.) is blown from a heater 22 by a blower 21 upwards through the floor 4 to dry the crop, and escapes through the mesh parts of the sides of the drier. The tines 47 are caused to pivot by mechanisms 60-68, mechanism 60 being operated during loading of a charge of crop into the the drier, mechanisms 61 and 62 during normal drying, and mechanism 63 for discharging crop from the drier. Mechanisms 61 and 62 are at opposite sides of the conveyer 28, and are arranged to pivot alternate rows of tines 47. Each mechanism 60-63, e.g. 63 (Fig. 4), comprises a pivoted bracket 64 spring-loaded to the inoperative position and movable to the operative position by means of a Bowden cable oparated by a lever at 93, the bracket 64 carrying operating stops 68, 68A. The conveyer 28 comprises a spaced pair of chains 34 trained around sprockets 33 and guided by supports 40, the chains 34 being connected together by braked rotatable shafts 42. Each shaft 42 carries arms 45 supporting a row of tines 47 and carries bell-crank arms 49. The first arm (which carries a guide roller 50) of the arm 49 is engaged by the first stop 68 to rotate the arm 49 so that the second tapered arm thereof is engaged by the second stop 68A, so as to pivot the tines 47 to release the crop. The guide roller 50 on each arm 49 engages guides 51, 52 &c. to ensure correct orientation of the tine support arms 45. The hot air is supplied by the blower to a thermally-insulated chamber 16 having the centre section of its top wall (which forms the floor 4 over which the crop is moved by the entraining bars of the conveyer 8 comprised of spaced longitudinal pipes between which the hot air passes. The air chamber 16 is sealed by elastic flaps through holes in which run the lower runs of the chain conveyer 8. An electric motor 81 drives shaft 32 of the conveyer 28 via a rope 82 and pulley, and the conveyer 8 by an eccentric 83 driving a rod 84 connected to a pawl mechanism 85. Trough 78 pivots about shaft 76 to discharge stones. Crop picked up from the field (or dry crop for mere delivery) is supplied by the moving floor of a wagon 92 into the drier. Crop is discharged (by operation of mechanism 63) over the doors 7 to an endless conveyer 88 feeding a blower 89 which delivers via a member 90 to a store 91.

Title: Improved means for use in heating and cooling liquids, and for automatically controlling the temperature thereof
IPC: G05D23/275
Filed: 1929-01-09
Abstract: 327,729. Benson, H. S. Jan. 9, 1929. Electrically - actuated valves.-In a device for regulating the temperature of milk &c. in a container heated by a furnace or by water or steam pipes, the valves controlling the flue pipes or the water or steam pipes are operated in one direction or the other, by one or other of two solenoids the circuits to which are controlled by a tilting mercury switch which is itself operated by two other solenoids, one or uther of which is energized when the temperature of the milk reaches a maximum or minimum. The tilting mercury switch has a delay action due to the mercury flowing through a small hole so that the circuits to the valve-operating solenoids are closed for an appreciable though limited time. In the form shown in Figs. 5 and 5a, the mercury switch comprises two tubes Q, R containing insulated contacts S, T and V, W each of which may be connected by mercury to its tube according to the position of the latter, and the tube R having a restricted opening X so that when the tube is rocked clockwise, for example, the contact V remains connected with the tube R by mercury for a limited time only. In operation, when the milk reaches a maximum temperature, a thermometer or thermal switch J closes a circuit from a battery m through a maximum contact L to a solenoid k and contact S and tube Q back to the battery. The solenoid tilts the tubes Q, R into their other position, thereby breaking the circuit to the solenoid k at S and completing another circuit from a battery h through solenoids f, g fixed contact b, tube R, and contact V. This latter circuit only lasts until the mercury in the tube R in its passage through the opening X leaves the contact V. A similar process occurs when the minimum temperature is reached, the tubes being tilted back by solenoid p, and a circuit to solenoids d, e being closed for a short time. The solenoids f, g and d, e operate the valves controlling the heat in one direction or the other. Figs. 7 and 8 show an alternative arrangement of mercury switch, there being only one tube divided into compartments. The circuits to the tube-tilting solenoids are completed through the contacts 2, 5, and the circuits to the valve-operating solenoids are completed for a short time through one or other of the contacts 3, 4, the time depending on the rate of now of mercury through an orifice 1. The valves may control the flue gases (Figs. 1. 2, not shown) or the flow of hot water or steam (Figs. 9, 10, 11, not shown).

Abstract: 566,569. Winding and paying-out apparatus. LE TOURNEAU, Inc., R. G. Jan. 15, 1943, No. 800. Convention date, Jan. 31, 1942. [Class 78 (v)] [Also in Group XXXIV] A brake which automatically becomes operative on rotation or tendency to rotation of the brake drum in one direction and which can be released at will, comprises a strap 10 of spring steel coiled a number of times around a brake drum 3 and connected at one end by a lug 13 and an upwardly inclined link 15 to a fixed part 16. The strap, due to its springy nature, tends to grip the drum and this is assisted by a light spring 18 connected to a lug 14 on its other end to which also is connected by a link 20 a releasing lever 21. The strap tapers in width from its anchored end 13 which takes the greater strain to its other end 14. The tapered form also enables the total width of the strap and of the drum to be kept narrow. The brake is shown provided on the winding drum 1 of a power hoist arranged to be driven by a shaft 9 through gearing 7 and a friction cone clutch 4 which carries the gear 7. When the drum is driven in the winding direction shown by the arrow, the strap tends to release, but tightens due to a self-wrapping action when the clutch having been disengaged, the winding drum tends to reverse under the action of the load.

Title: Process and apparatus for the preparation of ammonium sulphate
IPC: C01C1/242
Filed: 1954-01-12
Abstract: <PICT:0770172/III/1> In a process of preparing ammonium sulphate from NH3 or a gas mixture consisting of NH3 and steam and H2SO4 in a saturator by removing the crystals formed from the saturator as a crystal paste, separating the crystals from the mother liquor and washing the crystals in a centrifugal or other separator, and returning the resulting diluted mother liquor to the saturator after heating, the diluted mother liquor is heated in a direct contact condenser by the steam escaping from the saturator.  The washing water may also be heated in a direct contact condenser by escaping steam.  A crystal paste is withdrawn from saturator 1 containing a saturated solution of ammonium sulphate containing free H2SO4 to which a mixture of NH3 and steam and sulphuric acid are continuously supplied through 1a, 1b respectively.  Mother liquor separated from the crystal paste in centrifuges (not shown) and washing water is sprayed by pump 17 through pipe 12 into condenser 11, where steam aspirated from saturator chimney 2 through pipe 10 is condensed and heats the liquor from say 75 DEG  to 95 DEG C.  All crystal seeds remaining in the liquor are dissolved by this treatment and the heated liquor passes through 13 to tank 14 and may be continuously circulated by pump 15 to condenser 11 through riser 13a or pumped through pipe 16 and spray 19 into the vapour chamber 20 of the saturator, with consequent absorption of unabsorbed NH3 in the chamber to reduce loss.  Owing to the absence of seeds in the recirculated liquor coarser ammonium sulphate crystals are formed in the saturator.  Cold water at say 15 DEG C. is sprayed through 5 into condenser 4 and is heated to say 95 DEG C. by steam aspirated from chimney 2 through pipe 3.  Hot water passes through 6 to tank 7 and may be continuously circulated by pump 8 through riser 6a to condenser 4.  Hot water is withdrawn at 9. The continuous circulation of liquid to the condensers through risers 6a, 13a is optional.
