Abstract: 1,116,178. Thermocouples. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES Ltd. 18 Nov., 1966, No. 51817/66. Heading H1K. [Also in Division G1] The temperature of a fluid flowing through a pipeline consisting of lengths of tubing of two different materials may be measured by using the junction between two such lengths as a thermocouple. Fig. 1 (not shown) depicts such an arrangement. The invention relates to a fluid flowmeter incorporating two such junctions and operating on the principle that the temperature rise produced when a fluid is heated depends on its rate of flow. The flowmeter, Fig. 2, consists of a pipeline in which a centre section 8 of one material forms two thermojunctions 15, 16 with adjacent sections 7, so that the arrangement constitutes a differential thermocouple. The centre section 8 is heated electrically by means 13 which may be mounted externally as shown or internally of the pipeline. Preferred materials are: for the centre section, Ni or 60-40 Cu-Ni; and for the outer sections, Cu or brass. Insulating spacers 10 are interposed between the measuring sections and the remainder of the pipeline 9.

Abstract: 1293817 Chromium dioxide FARBENFABRIKEN BAYER AG 3 Nov 1970 [6 Nov 1969] 52131/70 Heading C1A Ferromagnetic chromium D dioxide, having a rutile structure, is prepared by allowing a proton donor to act upon a melt of at least one dichromate in the presence of at least one compound of the elements F, Mg, Zn, Sn, Ti, Sb, V, Nb, Ta, Te, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru and Pd and at a temperature of from 250‹ to 500‹ C. Proton donors are defined as compounds which yield protons in the presence of water (e.g. acids, acid halides or acid anhydrides). The reaction may be carried out at pressures up to 50 atmospheres. At least one inorganic salt e.g. nitrate of an alkali metal and/or an alkaline earth metal may be added to the melt. Compounds of the elements listed above may be added in a quantity of from 0À01% to 10% by weight based on the dichromate melt. Antimony oxide and tellurium oxide were added as modifying compounds in the examples. In one example chromium dioxide in the form of needles 0À8Á long and 0À034Á wide is obtained.

Title: Apparatus for Measuring the Liquid Level in a Container.
IPC: G01F23/16
Filed: 1966-11-23
Abstract: 1,158,289. Liquid level indicators. VDO TACHOMETER WERKE ADOLF SCHINDLING G.m.b.H. Nov.23, 1966 [Dec. 2, 1965; April 1, 1966], No.52500/66. Heading G1H. Apparatus for measuring the liquid level in a container 1 comprises an air chamber 2 connected to a pressure meter (not shown), liquid being drawn from the container through an outlet conduit by means of a pump (not shown) and a portion of the withdrawn liquid into which air is directly introduced by a jet nozzle assembly 6, 7 being recycled by the pump into the air chamber. Liquid is introduced into the container through a filling pipe 1a and flows through holes in the air chamber 2 wherein it rises to the top of a tube 4. Air in the chamber escapes through the tube 4, the nozzle 7 and an air conduit 9 until further introduction of liquid results in liquid entering the tube 4 so that the air pressure builds up in the chamber 2. On starting the pump, the output side of which is connected to a conduit 8, a small portion of the liquid delivered by the pump flows back to the container through the conduit 8 and the nozzles 6, 7 causing a suction in a space 11 so that all the liquid in the conduit 9 followed by air from a venting pipe 12 is ejected into the tube 4. The air pressure in the chamber 2 therefore increases and the liquid level in the chamber drops until it reaches the holes 14. Further air entering the chamber merely bubbles out through the holes and the pressure in the chamber, which equals the hydrostatic pressure due to a head of water 'h' is registered on the pressure meter connected by a conduit 10 to a tube 13. On stopping the pump, liquid in the tube 4 passes through the nozzle 7 and flows up the conduit 9 to the level of the liquid in the container. The pressure indicated on the meter is a measure of the height of liquid in the container. Figs.2, 3 (not shown), illustrate modifications of the apparatus for use with differently shaped containers whilst Fig. 4 (not shown) illustrates the modifications necessary to fit the apparatus to a wall of and near the bottom of a container.

Abstract: 1401583 Releasable fastening; stud and socket DORNIER SYSTEM GmbH 13 Nov 1973 [16 Jan 1973] 52584/73 Headings E2A and E2B [Also in Division F3] A releasable connection has a first part secured to a launching device for example and a second part secured to a rocket, for example. The first part comprises an outer sleeve 1 having a flange 1c, an inner sleeve 3 which is slidably mounted within the outer sleeve 1 and has an abutment 1a, a compression spring 4 located between the flange 1c, and the abutment 1a, and a distance piece 5. The second part comprises a member 2 having an arm 2a with a number of balls 8 housed therein, the arm being positioned between the sleeves 1 and 3 and the balls being received in depressions 3b formed in the inner sleeve 3 when the rocket is attached to the launching device. Release of the rocket is effected when pressurised gas is introduced through an inlet 6 in the outer sleeve 1 and enters a chamber 7 formed between the sleeves 1, 3 and the distance piece 5. The outer sleeve 1 is moved a distance A against the urging of the spring 4, by the pressurised gas, the movement being limited by an abutment 1b on the outer sleeve 1 engaging the distance piece 5. Part-spherical recesses 1e in the outer sleeve 1 become aligned with the balls 8 and allow the latter to move out of the depressions 3b and into the recesses 1e, thus effecting the release of the member 2 from the inner sleeve 3. The outer sleeve 1 and the distance piece 5 are then displaced a distance B by the pressurised-gas, the movement of the outer sleeve 1 being finally limited when an abutment 1d thereof abuts the abutment 1a of the inner sleeve 3 and the member 2 being moved clear of the sleeves 1 and 3 by the distance piece 5. The member 2 can be re-connected to the first part by the application of manual pressure.

Abstract: 1486032 Associative store INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 11 Dec 1974 [26 Dec 1973] 53562/74 Heading G4C An associative store consists of a matrix array of bi-stable cells forming n rows of storage cells S each storage cell being formed by two bi-stable cells S11, S12, &c. and n/2 rows of read out cells R, alternate read out cells in each row thereof corresponding to successive pairs of cells in a corresponding one of two storage rows associated with that row of read out cells and being connected to the cells in the corresponding row of storage cells such that read out is enabled from the read out cells when the contents of the corresponding row of storage cells matches a search argument. The storage cells each consists of a pair of bi-stable cells, Fig. 3A (not shown), such as S11, S12; S13, S14; &c., having binary one, binary zero, and don't care states. The cells in a row representing a word have a match output line, e.g. 14, 17, connected to an enabling line, e.g. 16, 19, connected to alternate ones of the single bi-stable cell read out cells R in a corresponding read out row. Two matrix arrays are described. In the first all the cells in a row are enabled by a word line, e.g. 14, 16, 17, 19 and data is written into odd or even numbered columns in the selected row by write gates 32 via bit lines 33-36. During writing the match detectors, e.g. 15, 18 are disabled to prevent spurious match outputs. In this way a row of storage cells and the corresponding half of a row of read cells are written in three cycles. In the alternative arrangement, Fig. 2 (not shown), the bit lines of adjacent pairs of columns are connected together and two word lines enable alternate cells in each row. To search the memory search data are applied to lines 21, 22 &c. and the word line 14, 17 of any row of storage cells containing matching data remains at a low potential which is inverted by the match detectors 15, 18 to apply a high potential to enable the corresponding read out cells R from which data may be read via lines 25, 26. If two rows of storage cells provide a match then the data from the corresponding two half-rows of read cells are OR-ed. The interleaved arrangement of storage cells and read out cells is said to enable the store to be formed on a reduced area of a circuit chip. Full circuit details of the storage cells, read out cells, match detectors, and read out detectors 23, 24 are given.
