Title: Pipeline system for the transport of a fluid
IPC: F16L9/18
Filed: 1971-01-11
Abstract: 1334423 Insulated pipe-lines KERNFORSCHUNGSANLAGE JULICH GmbH 11 Jan 1971 [24 March 1970] 1219/71 Heading F2P [Also in Division F4] In a pipe-line system for transporting low or high temperature fluids or radio-active gases, a conduit 1 is insulated and protected by a jacket pipe 2 around which an outer pipe 5 forms a gastight seal. The space between the jacket pipe 2 and the outer pipe 5, which may be of plastics or other material compatible with the environment, is filled with an inert gas such as helium at a pressure above atmospheric and preferably above that of the fluid being transported along the conduit 1, especially if the latter is toxic or radio-active. As shown, the pipe-line periodically has enlarged inspection sections 6 with openings 7, which may incorporate air-locks or gloveboxes, closed by screw-threaded covers 8, the conduit being revealed by removal of further covers 10. More than one inner conduit 1 may be provided. Pumps 4, which may be ion-getter pumps, maintain the pressure in the space between the jacket pipe 2 and the conduit 1 at about 10<SP>-4</SP> torr, to insulate the conduit. Further insulation 3 is also provided. In a further embodiment for low-temperature electric power transmission, the enlarged sections (6a) (Fig. 2, not shown) incorporate a platform (12) to facilitate repair work and the sections are detachably mounted along the pipe-line. Electric cables are provided in the or each inner conduit 1.

Title: Improvements in or relating to labelling machines
Inventor: FISHER FREDERIC RAYMOND
IPC: B65C9/42
Filed: 1954-01-15
Abstract: 762,780. Labelling machines. PURDY MACHINERY CO., Ltd. March 25, 1955 [Jan. 15, 1954], No. 1251/54. Class 73. A labelling machine comprises a picker device P, Fig. 3, upon which each label adheres on its adhesive side and which carries each label to a gripper device 3 which transfers the label to an article 13, there being means capable of so interrupting the movement of one of the devices that it is arrested beyond the path of the other device, and mechanism being provided to actuate the interrupting mechanism according to whether or not an article is present to be labelled. In the construction shown, each article 13 engages and moves a feeler 20 on an arm 21 pivoted at 22 and thereby moves a block 23 on the arm away from the path of a flange 24 of a rod 25 which is reciprocating in a vertical direction. A roller 26 carried by the rod is thus permitted to rise sufficiently to engage a cam surface 28 on a pivoted member 29 ; the roller also engages another surface 39 on member 29 on the following down stroke, The resultant movements of member 29 are transmitted by a lever 32 with a snap-action device to a shaft 14 carrying a finger 15. When, therefore, an article 13 is in a position to be labelled the finger 15 snaps successively into its two positions during each cycle. In one position it is clear of a spring urged tooth 6 of a clutch 4, 5, and the tooth by its spring serves to couple a rocking shaft 1 to a sleeve 2 carrying the gripping device 3. In its other position the finger retracts the tooth and thus interrupts the motion of the device 3. In the absence of an article the block 23 prevents complete upward movement of the rod 25, and thereby of the roller 26, with the result that the finger 15 remains in a position where it holds the tooth 6 in the retracted position. As shown in Fig. 3 the upper end of the rod 25 is connected to an arm 70 of a spring-controlled member 62 which is pivoted at 61 to a vertically reciprocating member 60, and at 66 to a lever 67 on the shaft 68 of the picker device P. When no article 13 is present to be labelled and the rod 25 is thereby held by the block 23, the effect of the restrained rod is to tilt the member 62, thereby decreasing the pivoting movement of the device P, under the action of the member 60, to an extent that it does not reach the label magazine. U.S.A. Specification 2,528,944 is referred to.

Title: Dynamo-electric machine rotors
IPC: H02K3/00
Filed: 1974-01-11
Abstract: 1474971 Securing windings ENGLISH ELECTRIC CO Ltd 2 Jan 1975 [11 Jan 1974] 01357/74 Heading H2A The conductors of a rotor winding are secured against centrifugal force by a plurality of annular members spaced along the rotor body, which are prestressed to clamp the conductors against the rotor. In a hydrogen cooled, slotless rotor 1, the conductors 6 are mounted between axially extending fences (11) mounted in grooves (12) in the rotor (Fig. 3 not shown), with twelve conductors between each pair of fences (11). Each conductor has two halves with a semi-elliptical groove which when the halves are fixed together provide cooling ducts. The conductors are insulated from the steel rotor body 1 by an insert (17, Fig. 3) and from each other by radial and peripheral partitions (15, 16). The cooling ducts through the conductors connect with ducts 22 in the rotor which themselves connect to axial ducts in the end-winding support (8, Fig. 1 not shown). Annular fibrereinforced resin rings 25 are prestressed by the inflation of bags 27 with synthetic resin at high pressure this then being cured at high temperature. Axial movement of the rings is prevented by T-shaped supports 26 of steel or phosphorbronze which may be interconnected to form a damping winding. As an alternative, the rings 25 are prestressed by a hydraulic device (Fig. 7 not shown) and then slipped overthe conductors. The conductors may be coated on the periphery with PTFE or molybdenum disulphide to enable expansion under high temperature working. Alternatively, this coating may be applied to the inner surfaces of the rings 25. In an alternative embodiment (Figs. 8, 9 not shown) a water cooled rotor is described, the annular members being similar to the previous embodiment. The conductors, however, are of hollow rectangular cross-section, the fences are tapered and no intermediate supports 26 are necessary. The machine end windings are secured by the method disclosed in Specification 1,474,972.
