Title: Improved ultra-high-vacuum seals
IPC: F16J15/00
Filed: 1965-08-12
Abstract: 1,113,269. Joint-making packing; pipe joints; pressure-resisting doors. COMPAGNIE POUR L'ETUDE ET LA REALISATION DE COMBUSTIBLES ATOMIQUES. 12 Aug., 1965 [12 Aug., 1964], No. 34571/65. Headings F2B, F2G and F2P. A seal for pipe connections, removable covers or valves under high vacuum is produced by providing an auxiliary chamber 19 between a seal 15 of plastics material and a seal formed by contact-faces 17, 18, communicating the auxiliary chamber with the low-pressure zone 10 during the pumping period and interrupting this communication when the pressure in the auxiliary chamber has fallen below a critical value at which the gas flow through the " gap " between the contact-faces becomes molecular. Under molecular flow conditions, the flow of gas through the contact faces is negligible. A valve 22 for closing the pipe connection between the auxiliary chamber 19 and low-pressure zone 10 at the appropriate moment may be operated manually or automatically, Fig. 3 (not shown). In Fig. 2 (not shown), the volume of the auxiliary chamber 19 is increased by connecting it with a further chamber 48. The valve itself is also sealed in a similar manner by communicating the space 33 with the auxiliary chamber 19 and providing plastic packing-rings 30, 44 on the valve cover and flange joint respectively, the contact faces being provided on the parts 26, 28 and 40.

Title: Improvements in reheat fuel supply system for a turbo-jet engine
Inventor: VDOVIAK JOHN WILLIAM
IPC: F02K3/10
Filed: 1957-11-12
Abstract: 860,718. Jet-propulsion plant. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Nov. 12, 1957, No. 35219/57. Class 110 (3). In a reheat fuel supply system for a gas turbine jet engine, reheat combustion equipment including a flame-holder device is mounted in the jet pipe of the engine and includes limited flow pilot fuel injectors disposed adjacent the flameholder and main reheat fuel injectors mounted in the jet pipe upstream of the flame-holder, a throttle control selector being provided whereby fuel is supplied to the pilot injectors at low throttle settings and to the main injectors and possibly also to the pilot injectors at high throttle settings. The apparatus shown comprises a fuel tank 11, reheat fuel pump 12, a fuel metering device 13, a pressure selector 14, a fuel system selector 16, pilot fuel system 17 and main reheat fuel system 18. The metering device comprises a casing 21 in which are disposed an axially-movable member 22 and an overlapping rotatable member 23 which cooperate to define a fuel metering port 24. The member 23 is rotated as the throttle lever 15 is advanced, by means of rod 25, link 26, shaft 27, bevel gears 28, 29 and shaft 31. The pump discharge is connected to the metering device, also to the pressure selector 14 which comprises a pair of pistons 34, 35 mounted on a common rod, the position of which is varied in dependence on the position of the throttle lever 15 by means of rod 25, link 39, shaft 38 and link 37. The equipment is shown in the reheatoff position, the pistons 34, 35 being disposed so that the port leading from the fuel pump line 33 is closed by piston 35, and the port leading from the fuel line 32 from the tank is open. Fuel from the tank can thus flow through line 42 to the lower side of the piston 43 of the systern selector 16. Fuel from the tank can also flow through line 41 to the upper side of piston 44 of the system selector the two pistons 43, 44 being mounted on a common rod and thus taking up a position determined by the strength of spring 46 in which the outlet port to line 48 is open. Fuel can therefore flow from pump 12, through metering orifice 24, lines 19 and 48 to the pilot fuel device 17, and thence through line 54 to manifold 51 associated with flameholder devices 53. With increased fuel pressure, fuel also passes through line 55 to a second manifold. As the throttle lever is advanced, the metering orifice is enlarged and the pistons 34, 35 are moved so that the line 32 is closed and 33 opened whereby fuel from pump 12 passes through line 42 to the lower side of piston 43. The pistons 43, 44 rise and close off line 48 and open line 56 whereby fuel from line 19 can pass to main reheat fuel equipment 18 and so through line 61 to injectors 58. With increase of pressure, fuel also passes through line 62 to injectors 58. The system selector 16 may be arranged so that fuel is supplied to the pilot system as well as to the main system, by means of an adjustable stop which limits upward movement of the pistons 43, 44.
