Cushion-shaped packages are reshaped to parallelepipedic form by members 1 (Fig. 1) carried by an endless chain and by polygonalshaped rollers 8 mounted on spring-biased arms 12 and formed with bevel portions 20 (Fig. 4) engaging the ears formed at the corners. A second chain (5) (Fig. 3, not shown) may engage portions (6) of the members 1 to assist in locating them, and pressure may be applied to the packages by spring-biased platforms 4. In the form shown, the members 1 are Z-shaped so that they also confine the middle parts of the side faces of the packages. The rollers 8 are driven by engagement with the chain. The ears 20 are subsequently guided into the planes of the end faces by members 14 (Fig. 1) and are then welded by members (16), Fig. 2, (not shown), on endless chains (15). Members (13) guide the packages into the apparatus. A second line of packages may be reshaped in the ascending run of the conveyor of Fig. 1.

Between the plies may be placed padding, additional supporting elements and fabric panels to control opacity. The tube may be knitted on a hosiery machine using a constant number of needles. The size of the knitted stitches may be varied by adjusting the stitch cams controlling the yarn tension. Only two stitch sizes may be used see Fig. 2 in which the parts A, C, E are knitted of one stitch size and parts B, D are of a larger stitch size. Yarns used may be nylon, polyester or the like yarns which, when knitted are capable of producing fabric which can be permanently shaped. The blank may be shaped on a wire former such as 18 and shaped by formers 25 carried on a strip 26. The blank is finished as a brassiere by adding straps, side panels an underbust band and hooks and eyes, Fig. 13. Padding (29) Fig. 10 (not shown), may be inserted in the blank. In ablank, Fig. 12, in areas 34 additional yarns are plated on to the main yarn.

Abstract: 817,057. Magnetic amplifiers. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. July 27, 1956, No. 23318/56. Class 40 (9). A full-wave self-excited magnetic amplifier giving a balanced output comprises two bridge arrangements of windings 3, 5, 7 and 9, and 4, 6, 8 and 10, respectively, each winding being in series with a rectifier, one diagonal of each bridge being connected to an isolated A.C. supply in series with a ballast resistor 28 or 29, the other diagonals being connected in common to supply a load 31, the windings on opposite arms of each bridge being wound on one of two pairs of cores 1, 1a, and 2, 2a, one pair of cores having a common D.C. control winding 1 1 connected in series with the control winding 12 of the other pair of cores, and the rectifiers being poled so that each bridge conducts during alternate half cycles of the A.C. supply. For a D.C. control signal of one polarity one core of each pair is driven to saturation so that both bridges are unbalanced and each supplies the load during alternate half cycles to give a rectified full-wave output. Reversing the polarity of the control signal causes the other core of each pair to saturate and unbalance the bridges giving a rectified full-wave output of opposite sign. The cores may carry bias windings.

[Also in Division F2] A control apparatus for use with an oil burner fuel pressure governor 40, Fig. 2 (not shown), comprises a piston 30 displaceably mounted within a part 18 for movement between two limiting positions corresponding to different output pressures of the governor, a bearing disc 34 adapted to co-operate with the pressure governor and individually adjustable stop means defining the two limiting positions. The part 18 is slidably fitted over a part 15 which is screwed on to a bushing 11 provided with an axial bore 12 and fixedly mounted in the housing 41 of the pressure governor 40. The part 18 is enclosed by a sleeve 25 which engages a shoulder on the part 18 by means of a flange 26 and which is screwed to the part 15. The coaxial parts 11, 15, 18 are sealed by 0-rings 22 and 17. The piston 30 is attached by a piston-rod 33 to the bearing disc 34 which abuts the spring 44 acting on the piston 42 of the pressure governor, and is actuated by oil supplied through an inlet 20 in the part 18. The piston 42 controls the flow of oil to a burner 55 from a pump 52. The axial movement of the piston 30 is limited by a surface 19 on the part 18 and by an end face 16 of the part 15. By rotation of the parts 15, 25 the limiting positions of the piston 30 can be adjusted. The bushing 11 has a small bore 13 to fluidly connect both sides of the bushing 11. Fig. 2 (not shown), shows the control apparatus controlling the pressure governor 40 in the fuel supply line to a burner 55. The inlet 20 is connected by a two-way valve 57 either to a pipe 56 connected to the burner nozzle or by a pipe 59 to the oil reservoir 50. In the former case the piston 30 is urged downwardly to compress the spring 44 and in the latter case the piston occupies the upper position shown. Grub screws may be provided to prevent rotation of the parts 11, 15 and 25.

Abstract: 797,643. Specific-gravity estimating apparatus. FOXBORO CO. July 30, 1956 [Aug. 26, 1955], No. 23492/56. Class 97(3) Apparatus for measuring the density of a fluid comprises an enclosure for a centrifugal impeller, fluid being supplied to the enclosure both directly and through the impeller, the pressure difference between the liquid on the enclosure and in the system supplying the impeller providing a measure of the density. In the form shown the fluid enters a chamber 10 through a pipe 11 and leaves by a pipe 12. The centrifugal impeller 13, rotated by a motor 24, comprises a disc 17, formed with radial passages 16 communicating with a central passage 15, to which is secured another disc 19 with a gasket 18 between. A sleeve 22 secured to the disc 17 rotates between concentric tubes 27, 32 secured to the casing to form a seal to which mercury is supplied through a tube 36. A tube 25 leads from the pipe 11 through the sleeve 32 to introduce a fluid sample into the passage 15. In a modification, the sample is taken from the chamber 10 through a radial passage through the hub at the centre of the disc 17. A pipe 33 connected to the sleeve 27 and a pipe connected to the chamber 10 are coupled to the two sides of a differential pressure measuring device 37 such as described in Specification 672,879 [Group XIX]. Another device which may be used for this purpose is a manometer which provides its indication as a shaft rotation which may be used to operate a recorder. A similar manometer and recorder may be used to indicate the flow in the main pipe line from the pressure difference on the two sides of an orifice. The outputs of the two manometers may be multiplied, in a device such as described in Specification 471,115 [Group XIX] to provide, on a single recorder, an indication of mass flow.
