Abstract: 1494738 Brake discs; cooling GIRLING Ltd 16 Sept 1975 [2 Oct 1974] 42701/74 Heading F2E A brake disc comprises a central annular plate 1 adapted to be mounted on a rotatable hub 2, two identical annular braking portions 3 located one on each side of the plate 1 and each comprising a radial braking surface 4 at the outer end of a plurality of angularly spaced axially extending radial vanes 5 of which the inner ends abut against the central plate 1; a clamping strip 7, for holding the portions 3 in engagement with the plate 1 encircles the vanes 5 and plate 1, allows for a certain amount of resilience in the assembly, and roll pins 10 received in the plate 1 and at opposite ends in the adjacent vanes 5 of the braking portions 3 transmit torque from the braking portions 3 to the plate 1 and maintain the braking portions 3 concentric with the plate 1. The vanes 5 provide a cooling surface, cooling air flowing between them. As shown, the vanes 5 are tapered away from the braking surfaces 4 and the inner ends are cut away at their radially inner and outer ends so that only a radially short part 6 is in contact with plate 1. The roll pins 10 are fixed in the plate 1 and engaged in grooves 11 in the vanes 5, but in a modified construction the pins 10 are a good fit in the grooves 11 and slide in slots in the plate 1. Radial slots (12) machined on the plate 1 allow for thermal expansion and relieve stresses. Annular guards or deflectors may be mounted on each side of the central plate 1 to prevent oil or dirt from being thrown on to the disc.

Title: Electronic control of bight feed and feed balance in a sewing machine
IPC: D05B19/00
Filed: 1975-10-21
Abstract: 1484660 Swing needle sewing machine SINGER CO 21 Oct 1975 [16 July 1975] 43195/75 Heading DIG [Also in Division G3] A sewing machine has the stitch forming mechanism positionally controllable to produce a pattern of stitches from stored digital information. This information is read out in synchronism with the stitch formation and is fed to feed (forward) and bight (sideward) position control circuits only one of which is shown. The digital signals are fed from a store in LSI50 to a D/A converter 52 and the analogue signal is then amplified at 54 and fed to a position control servo system 65-73. Amplifier 54 has a feedback loop 57, 59, 60a, to control the size of the stitches, comprising a rheostat 59 which normally has its whole resistance in series in the feedback loop and an FET switch to connect the line 57 across part of the resistance to the wiper of the rheostat, the residual resistance of the loop and therefore the gain of the amplifier being determined by the set position of the rheostat. The FET switch may be latched ON, whenever the rheostat is adjusted, by means of a proximity switch but may be switched off by manually resetting the latch circuit (see Fig. 6). Balance between forward and reverse feed rate is controlled by a balance circuit 75, 60b wherein a balance signal is added at summing point 56 whenever a reverseinstruction is detected.

Title: Improvements in or relating to electric heating devices
Inventor: ARCHER JOHN
IPC: H05B1/02
Filed: 1960-12-16
Abstract: 1,004,261. Heat measurements, thermostats. PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd. Feb. 5, 1962 [Dec.16, 1960), No. 43399/60. Heading G1D. [Also in Divisions H2 and H5] A resistance heating element is surrounded by a non-distensible, non-contractible, fluid-tight tube which contains a thermally expansible fluid e.g. air, and means at one end of the tube for responding to variations in the pressure (or volume) of the contained fluid, which fluid is preferably arranged, for normal operation, to be at subatmospheric pressure, whereby the supply to the element is switched off by the pressure responsive means whenever the pressure rises to a predetermined value by reason either of sufficient temperature rise, or of air leakage into the element due to the occurrence of faults in its surrounding tube. The flexible heating cable 1, Fig. 1, has heating wire 2 wound round a fibre core 3 and surrounded by an extruded PVC tube 4, one end of which is hermetically sealed to the rubber vessel 5 supported on base plate 7, whereby the air gap arising between the wire 2 and the tube 4 is in communication with the vessel 5. Diametrically opposed strips 9 and 12 are secured to the vessel 5, increase in air pressure in tube 1 and vessel 5 causing the latter to expand and press strip 12, together with resilient members 27 and 24, downwards to stop 31, and strip 9 upwards until link 13 opens contacts 17,18 to break the heater circuit, whereafter the device cycles in temperature. Cam 35 and resilient member 34 permit adjustment of stop 31 and hence of the maximum temperature. The pressure in the tube and vessel is rendered sub-atmospheric, upon switching on the device, by movement of the strip 12 due to the action of the on/off switch 25-shown in the 'on' position-upon the resilient member 24. A controlled air leak may be provided, by the inclusion of a porous metal or ceramic tube, whereby the heater, if accidentally left switched on, will eventually be switched off due to the pressure rise; and increased sensitivity to localised overheating may be provided by employing as the fluid the vapour of a low boiling point insulating liquid, which boils upon the occurence of an excessive temperature rise. When used in an electric blanket, partial compensation for a varying ambient temperature may be provided by including a bimetal portion in lever 32. Further modifications include the connection of both ends of cable 1 to vessel 5, or the provision of a separate Fig. 2 control device at each end of the cable. The device is applicable to electrically heated clothing. A further embodiment operates with a pressure exceeding atmospheric, one pair of contacts opening upon sufficient rise in pressure, and another pair opening upon collapse of the pressure down to atmospheric.

Abstract: 887,534. Internal shoe-drum brakes. TATRA, NARODNI PODNIK. Dec. 21, 1959 [Feb. 16, 1959], No. 43402/59. Class 103 (1). An hydraulic brake-actuating mechanism comprises a piston 2 carrying a coned member 4 on rod 13, and three segments 5 biased by a spring 7 against the wall of cylinder 1; the rod 13 is force-fitted into member 8 engaging shoe 14, the other shoe abutting the cylinder 1. A predetermined clearance exists between segments 5 and piston 2 corresponding to brake clearance; and on braking, should the brake linings have worn, then piston 2 engages and moves segments 5; on brake release, spring. 15 retracts the shoes from drum 16 until coned member 4 engages segments 5 which are then wedged against cylinder 1. Half the apex angle of member 4 is less than the difference between the friction angle of the surfaces of segments 5 and cylinder 1 and the friction angle of segments 5 and member 4 to ensure such wedging. A light spring ring 6 holds the segments together for ease of assembly.

Abstract: 917,930. Electric induction furnaces. PHILIPS ELECTRICAL INDUSTRIES Ltd. Dec. 22, 1959 [Dec. 24, 1958], No. 43546/59. Class 39 (3). [Also in Groups XII and XXX] An induction heating arrangement includes a horizontal feeding chamber containing workpieces 8 mounted on movable support tracks 3, a conveyer 9 for receiving the heated workpieces, a reciprocable push rod 5 at the entry end of the furnace for pushing the workpieces through the chamber. In operation the workpieces are heated due to induction arising out of coil 2, and when the workpiece nearest the output reaches the required temperature; the support carriage 3, which comprises two water-cooled parallel steel tubes, is moved through the chamber by drive 6 towards the outlet end and the longer horizontal section of the support comes to rest adjacent the upper end of conveyer 9, the push rod 5, driven by 6, then pushes the workpieces forward pushing the foremost one on to the conveyer 9 and out of the furnace. The push rod then retracts and the support 3 returns to its original position. A new workpiece 8 falls into the line from side shoot 7. The support may also be of non- magnetic steel strips which may be coated with ceramic oxide layers, or fillets of appropriate properties may be welded to them. In a modification, movement of the carriage 3 is achieved by means of the friction existing between the workpieces 8 and the support when the workpieces are pushed forwards by push rod 5. The carriage, in this case, is spring loaded so that it will automatically return to its rest position when the push rod retracts.
