A machine for moulding soles on to two shoe bottoms simultaneously comprises a single cylinder and piston device for moving two foot-form carriers between a loading position where the shoes to be moulded are placed thereon and an inoperative position from which it is moved to a mould arrangement for shaping the sole to the shoe bottom. Each foot-form 3 is secured to a shaft 2, each shaft being rotatably mounted between an inner frame 4 and an outer frame of the machine. Levers 6 fixed to the shafts 2 are jointedly connected to levers 22 pivoted on frame 4 at 19 and engage one on each side of a member 16 secured to the end of a piston-rod movable in the bore of a cylinder assembly 8. The piston moves forward under oil pressure whereby the levers 6 are rotated by the jointed connection to the piston-rod causing the shafts carrying the foot-forms to rotate to bring the foot-forms 3 into loading position. Shoes to be moulded are placed on the foot-forms and a switch actuated causing oil to enter the bore in front of the piston, urging it rearwardly, whereby the loaded foot-forms are brought into a downwardly depending inoperative position when a further switch is actuated, causing the footforms in side frames 4 to be moved by the mechanism of Specification 1,025,641 to the moulding station. Means are provided in the cylinder assembly 8 for controlling the oil pressure as the foot-forms approach their loading or inoperative positions to reduce the rate of movement or increase the holding pressure. Also the shaft 10 and the member 16 have part spherical portions in their bearings which allow for independent movement of the foot-forms relative to each other.

Abstract: 1,059,236. Rotary pumps. BORG-WARNER CORPORATION. Aug. 11, 1964 [Aug. 13, 1963], No.32683/64. Heading F1F. A fuel pump supplying fuel to the fuel-injection pump in a fuel-injection system for an I. C. engine, comprises a rotary pump S, Fig. 5 having an externally-toothed rotor 38, mounted on a shaft 32 driven by a series wound motor (not shown), through a flexible coupling 110 and an internallytoothed rotor 39 having one more tooth rotatable in the base 50 of a casing 16 closed by a coverplate 23 formed with an arcuate inlet 52 supplied through a pipe 10 and a filter (not shown), from a tank on which the pump is mounted. The pump discharges through an arcuate outlet 62 and duct 64 into a part of the casing 16 housing a pressure regulator 24 and a check valve 26 and thence normally through the check valve to the fuelinjection valve supplying the fuel nozzles. On pump pressure reaching a value determined by an adjustable spring 72, a needle valve 68, preferably of plastics material, is unseated to return excess fuel to the tank. A first bleed hole 58, Fig. 7 (not shown), leading from a recess (60) formed in the cover plate adjacent the root radius of the rotor 38 and as near as possible to the centre of the pumping cavity where vapour collects due to the fuel being thrown outwardly by centrifugal force passes the vapour to prevent vapour lock in the pump. A second bleed hole 56 leading from a recess 54 coaxial with the shaft 32 passes the remainder of the vapour and also relieves the pump shaft of thrust loads. A third bleed hole 36 relieves the pressure from any leakage fuel which collects behind the seal 34 and so relieves pressure on the lip of the seal and reduce braking on the shaft 32.

Abstract: 1,259,546. Acoustic echo-ranging. BENDIX CORP. 1 Dec., 1969 [27 Dec., 1968], No. 58578/69. Heading H4D. In a sonar system a burst of relatively short pulses, Fig. 2d, replaces each long pulse normally emitted, such that wanted echoes fill in the gaps in the received burst and unwanted echoes, e.g. due to small objects such as fish, do not. In an embodiment transducers 10, 12 provide for arrival angle determination based on the phase shift between their outputs; a phase comparator 22 produces positive and negative rectangular waves of relative duration corresponding to sign and magnitude of echo direction, the position of the target being indicated as a bright spot on cathode-ray tube (C.R.T.) 24 off the centre of the sector being scanned. Range is given by distance from the centre of the C.R.T. A detector 26 feeds an automatic gain control circuit 27 and a filter 28 (see below). In the transmitter a feedback on line 41 is utilized to ensure that pulses start and stop at a zero crossing of the output of oscillator 34. Pulse train control circuit 42 includes manually operable switches for setting pulse duration and the interval between pulses, and co-ordinates with a setting in filter 28; and by manipulating the mark/space ratio in train, Fig. 2d, an operator may estimate the equivalent length of the target. Filter 28, Fig. 4, comprises a transistor 74 such that when it conducts high-frequency components of the signal detected by detector 26 are grounded. An output from pulse control 42, Fig. 1, is applied to the base of transistor 84 which controls the time constant of the filter by adding or removing capacitor 94. Diode 90 is included to inhibit voltage build-up on capacitors 92, 94 between pulses. An input 72, from circuit 30, Fig. 1, is a high-frequency signal including components due to e.g. reverberation and small scattered reflectors; to prevent the display of such a signal a transistor 74 is caused thereby to conduct and thus ground the video output.
