Abstract: 1,211,688. Valves. WALKER CROSWELLER & CO. Ltd. 22 Feb., 1968 [22 Nov., 1966], No. 52223/66. Heading F2V. A hot and cold water mixing valve has two inlets 2, 3 and a pair of opposed outlets 8, 9. The flow from the inlets is controlled by two reciprocating valves 15, 16 actuated by opposed bifurcated arms 18, 19 on a boss 20 reciprocated by a threaded connection with an axially-fixed rotatable shaft 29 having an operating knob 32. Flow from the valves is through opposed passages 13, 14, ports 27, 28 in a depending sleeve of the boss 20 which ports are brought into register with the passages 13, 14 simultaneously with the opening of valves 15, 16 and through ports 44, 45 of a hub 35 rotatable by a knob 47 to control the relative proportions of water flowing from the two inlets into the inside of the hub. The water flows out of the hub through an opening 48 which can be positioned opposite either of the outlets to direct flow to a shower or a bath.

Abstract: 1,104,480. Taking up slack in cables. BOFORS A.B. 6 Dec., 1966 [6 Dec., 1965], No. 54594/66. Heading B8B. A device for feeding a flexible cable 7 between a magazine 9 on a first member 1 and a receiving member 4 on a relatively rotatable turret 2, comprises a plurality of catches 11 fixed to the turret 2 and adapted to engage the cable as it is withdrawn from the magazine, or release the cable as it is fed to the magazine, on rotation of the turret 2. Each catch comprises a cable receiving recess 12 which has its opening normally closed by a locking member 13 spring- biased into the closed position. As the turret 2 rotates and a catch 11 passes the opening 8 of the magazine 9, the edge of the magazine opening engages the locking member and rotates it into the open position until the opening 8 has been passed. During this opened condition, cable 7 is either fed into or from the recess 12 in the catch, depending on the direction of rotation of the turret. The securing member 4 comprises a rotatable part 5a into the side of which, the cable 7 passes prior to bending through 90 degrees to pass into the body of the member 4.

Abstract: 1401419 Displaying pulsed data; gamma camera display NUCLEAR ENTERPRISES Ltd 20 Nov 1972 [25 Nov 1971] 54738/71 Headings H3H and H4F A circuit arrangement for use with a "gamma camera" which is an arrangement for detecting the presence and position of a radioisotope tracer, e.g. within a patient's body, to provide analogue signals indicative of x, y coordinates of the position of the tracer and a pulse at the time of detection, is adapted to feed an output C.R.T. with information regarding only the mean positions of the traces detected to thereby eliminate statistical fluctuations and improve output resolution, the circuit arrangement comprising for each coordinate axis, x, y, a comparator 5 to provide an output of one of two values depending upon whether an analogue coordinate signal input at 1 is greater or less than a mean value signal, the output being gated via flip-flop 6 clocked by the pulse signal from the camera to increment or decrement a counter 7, 8, the output of which is connected to D/A converter 9 where a mean value signal is produced amplified at 10 and provided as a deflection voltage at 3 for a C.R.T. display and as the second input to comparator 5. The pulses from the camera arriving at the input 2 are fed to an output 4 where they cause a bright spot to be made on the C.R.T. screen at a position dictated by the output analogue signals. These input pulses are processed in logic circuitry 11A comprising a J-K flip-flop 11 and gates, e.g. 12 together with a signal indicating a "carry" command between one portion 7 and the other 8 of the counter, and the Q and Q outputs of flipflop 6, whereby an output arrives at 4 only when the portion 8 of the counter has received 2 successive "carry" signals of the same sense, thereby ensuring an output trace in which the number of bright spots per unit length is substantially independent of the speed of movement of the trace.

Abstract: 1,254,704. Vibratory conveyers. SERVICE D'EXPLOITATION INDUSTRIELLE DES TABACS ET DES ALLUMETTES. 21 Nov., 1968 [21 Nov., 1967], No. 55201/68. Heading B8A. [Also in Division H2] A vibrating conveyer table 13 is supported from table 11 by springs 14 and is vibrated by an electromagnet 16 which co-operates with a magnetic element 15 fixed upon the table 13. The circuit of the magnet 16 includes a coil 18 which reacts with a magnetic element 17 fixed upon the table 13. Operation.-When the table 13 is in its position of equilibrium (Fig. 1) and a switch 33 is then closed, D.C. voltage from a source 32 is applied through a delay member 27 to the coil 16 of the electromagnet. The delay of unit 27 corresponds to the period of vibration of the table 13, and thus current through this unit is cut off when the element 15 engages the electromagnet (Fig. 2, not shown). Current from a relay and amplification unit 25 acting on the coil 16 through a variable resistor 29, balances the return action of the springs 14. The table is thus held stationary in its out-of-equilibrium position (Fig. 2, not shown). Vibration of the table is commenced by opening the switch 33. As the table springs back through its equilibrium position, a pulse is generated in a coil 18 by movement, relative to it, of an armature 17 carried by the table 13. This pulse is amplified by the unit 25 (supplied from the D.C. source at 31) to provide a drive from the electromagnet.
