Title: Separator for water-hydrocarbon mixtures
IPC: A01K1/06
Filed: 1965-10-27
Abstract: 1,092,299. Gravity-separation apparatus; liquid filters. ESSO RESEARCH & ENGINEERING CO. Oct. 27, 1965 [Oct. 29, 1964; Feb. 26, 1965; July 2, 1965], No. 45497/65. Heading B1D. "Cleaning" water containing hydrocarbons and sediment, e.g. from the tanks of an oiltanker, is admitted at 9, de-gassed at 8, and led to the bottom of a separator 1 at 5. The mixture passes upwards between bottom 3 and cone 11 and is discharged radially inwards at 14 to a first separating stage 15. From here, hydrocarbons rise at 16 to be discharged at 42, 43 while water flows upwards through a funnel 20 to the space between cones 19 and 22. From here, the mixture is again discharged radially inwards, this time at 25 into second stage 26. Hydrocarbons rising at 27 are again discharged at 43. After a third separation stage, residual hydrocarbons are discharged at 54 and water at 44. Sediment may be collected in space 10 by opening valves 11a 22, 32a simultaneously (47, 46), and discharged therefrom by opening valve 4. In a modification, the incoming mixture flows horizontally in a half-annular path at the top of the apparatus, where air is released and where partial gravitational separation occurs. The liquid parts of the mixture pass over a lower weir at which sediments are arrested and periodically discharged, and then separated hydrocarbons pass over an upper weir on their way to the final hydrocarbons discharge. The remaining mixture then flows downwards to a bottom entry to the apparatus as before. Angled vanes are provided at each of the locations corresponding to the diffusers 14, 25 and 35; and between diffuser 35 and the interior, three concentric cylinders with vertical baffled slots (forming a kind of filter) are provided to assist separation. In a further modification, the angled vanes just referred to are replaced by upwardly and inwardly-directed vanes radial with respect to the apparatus; these vanes are extended downwards nearly to the funnels 20, 31 in each case to form numerous radial partitions between the pairs of cones 19, 22 and 30, 33, respectively.

Abstract: 1,057,367. Knitting-machines. WILLIAM COTTON Ltd. Oct. 22, 1963 [Dec. 1, 1962], No. 45563/62. Heading D1C. A yarn marking device in a knitting machine marks the yarn at regular intervals to produce marks in the fabric which appear in predetermined positions when the fabric is correctly produced. Yarn "Y" is fed from a yarn package "YP", through a tensioner 10, over a wick 15 which is in a dye container 14, through the eyes 8, 9 of a snapper 4, over a yarn guide 2 to the needles 1 of a straight bar or flat knitting machine. When the snapper is tilted forward, a flexible spring 7 is lifted by a snapper fixed rod 5 and the yarn passes, when the snapper is tilted backwards the spring 7 traps the yarn and a blade 16 presses the yarn down to be marked by the wick 15 as both the snapper and the blade are fastened to the same snapper rocking rod. 6. On a symmetrical fabric the lines of marks appear as straight lines parallel to the edges of the fabric as at M and M 1 , and with a fashioned fabric they are inclined, The machine may be graduated, as the marks are made once in each cause to measure loop length. The dye is washable and is removed by the final finishing of the fabric.

Title: Improvements in or relating to a web preconditioner
IPC: H02P7/34
Filed: 1962-12-03
Abstract: 1,017,497. Corrugating webs; conditioning paper. KOPPERS CO. Inc. Dec. 3, 1962 [Dec. 1, 1961], No. 45699/62. Headings D1S and D2A. [Also in Divisions B6B and G3R] To prepare a paper web 10 for corrugation and adhesion between two uncorrugated webs (not shown) it is fed between steam jets 126,127 to a conditioner comprising a steam heated drum 22 and a tensioning arrangement. The arc of contact between web and drum and hence the drying time, is determined by the position of an idler roll 35 mounted on supports 37 rotatable about the axis of the drum by a manually controlled electric motor via a pinion 54 and quadrant 55. The web leaves the drum at a pinch roller 56 mounted on pivoted brackets 59; the pinch is effected by the weight of the roller, which may be lifted by an air motor 61 for threading. The drum 22 and pinch roller 56 are rotated by an electric motor and form a first drive for the web; a second drive is constituted by the corrugator (15, Fig. 1, not shown). Between these two drives the web is passed round a dancer roll 66 free to move vertically in guides 70. There are guides at both sides of the roller, which is kept horizontal by a rack and pinion arrangement 71, 72. The weight of the dancer roll tensions the web, but is partly relieved by an air motor 76 to which it is connected by a flexible wire 85 passing over combined large and small pulleys 91, 90; these provide a convenient ratio of travel between dancer roll and air motor. The air supply to the motor is controlled to provide a constant pressure at the motor regardless of its position. Movement of the dancer roll is transmitted by a pin 99 engaging an endless chain 100 to a rotary rheostat which controls the speed of the drum driving motor (see Div. G3) to keep the height of the dancer roll, and hence the web tension, constant.

Filed: 1971-10-01
Abstract: 1331574 Colour television LICENTIA PATENT - VERWALTUNGS - GmbH 1 Oct 1971 [2 Oct 1970] 45875/71 Heading H4F An arrangement for magnetic recording from a PAL colour television signal comprises means for frequency-shifting the chrominance signal by a multiple of line frequency to a lower frequency, thus retaining the 25 Hz displacement and quarter-line offset present in the original; this arrangement is stated to result in reduced signal degradation. Fig. 1 shows the separation of luminance (BAS), line sync. (S) and chrominance information by filters 2, 3 and separator 8, the line sync. pulses being frequency-multiplied at 13 and the resulting signal is mixed at 12 with one at colour-carrier frequency obtained from the burst gated at 9 to obtain a signal at the desired new colourcarrier frequency. Mixer 15 produces the desired beat frequency for use at 16 to obtain the converted chrominance signal, and a pilot signal at 1/3 colour-carrier frequency is added to luminance and chrominance signals at 6 for recording, the luminance signal having been frequency modulated at 4. The composite signal thus recorded comprises frequency-modulated luminance (e.g. 1-4 MHz), chrominance (on a carrier of about 0À5 MHz), and pilot (of 1/3 chrominance carrier frequency). Fig. 2 (not shown) illustrates the circuitry for reconstituting the PAL signal on playback.

Abstract: 1,190,783. Rolling. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. 18 Oct., 1967 [14 Nov., 1966], No. 47347/67. Heading B3M. [Also in Division H2] When new working rolls WR1, WR2, are to be placed into a mill stand, hubs HB1, HB2, are aligned with corresponding sockets SSC1, SSC2, by turning drive-shafts SS1, SS2, which are geared together in a one-to-one ratio and coupled to electric motor M. A position indicator comprises elements AL fixed to coupling SSC and co-operating with a transducer MT of the magnetic or photo-electric type. The output of the transducer is amplified to control a relay which, upon receiving a signal from either element AL, opens a contact in series with a speed regulator whereby driving power is removed from the motor. At the same time, further relay-contacts are closed so that pulses from a tachometer accelerator T are delivered to a count-down unit which is preset to a number previously measured during coasting of the shaft SS1. The output of the counter is fed through a digital-to-analogue converter to control the speed regulator. This ensures that the angular stopping-position of the drive-shafts is always the same.

Abstract: 1,248,580. IGFETs. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. 7 Oct., 1968 [13 Oct., 1967], No. 47482/68. Heading H1K. In making an IGFET the gate electrode is used to mask the semi-conductor during formation of the source and drain regions by diffusion. In one embodiment one or more pairs of complementary IGFETs are formed in an N-type silicon wafer 60 (Fig. 6) using common processing steps. First a genetic oxide layer 62 is formed on one face by heating in oxygen followed by annealing in helium. Molybdenum (or tungsten) 63 is then deposited overall by a glow discharge process and selectively removed from the sites of the sources and drains. A pure silica layer 75 is deposited overall and thinned by etching over the N channel IGFET sites prior to deposition of a boron-doped silica layer 76. The masking effect of the various oxide and molybdenum layers is such that in a subsequent heating boron diffuses inward to produce a continuous P-type base layer 82 at the site of each N channel device and spaced P-type source and drain inclusions 78, 79 where the oxide was not thinned. After removal of the boron doped oxide, phosphorus doped oxide 83 is applied over the N channel device sites by overall deposition followed by selective etching, and then diffused in. The molybdenum masks this diffusion to provide spaced N-type source and drain inclusions 86, 87 in each P-type base. Contacts and any desired interconnections are finally provided by suitably aperturing the insulating layers, depositing aluminium overall and then form etching. One or more N channel IGFETs only may be made on an N-type body by a simplified version of the above process. In this the boron doped film may be deposited directly: on the patterned molybdenum and the pure oxide either superposed on it before or after boron diffusion or dispensed with altogether. To form P channel devices on a P-type wafer, after forming the genetic oxide layer and molybdenum pattern phosphorus doped oxide is deposited and diffused in to form the sources and drains. A deposited layer of pure oxide may be provided between it and the pattern or on top of it. In a further alternative the pure oxide is deposited prior to patterning the molybdenum layer. In all the above processes the oxide layers are deposited by pyrolysis of ethyl orthosilicate alone or mixed with triethyl phosphate or borate where doping is required. Patterning of the various layers for forming masks, apertures, and contacts is effected by photoresist and etching steps using ferricyanide, a mixture of orthophosphoric, acetic and nitric acids; and hydrofluoric acid to remove molybdenum, aluminium and oxides respectively. Concentric and linear source and drain configurations are described. Where a number of identical devices are made on a common wafer it may subsequently be cut up and individual devices ohmically attached to headers using gold-indium alloy or donor-doped gold according to whether the wafer is P or N type.
