In textile factories it is actual to make use of bobbins, which are available in different sizes and shapes, viz. as cylindrical or conical bobbins. The relevant bobbin holders will not normally be usable with such different types of bobbins, i.e. the holders are bound to receive only one of the types. Adjustable holders have been suggested, but such holders are not attractive when they have to be...

A tyre (10) produced by way of a moulding or casting process in a manner such that each of its bead areas (16) includes an annular slot (42) whereby the slots permit the insertion of an inextensible annular reinforcement element (40) into each of the bead area slots (42) after the moulding or casting process. Slots (42) are preferably produced by the addition of annular collars (64) to either the ...

PURPOSE:To efficiently produce a hydrocarbon oil of a wide range of boiling point which is used as a fuel or feedstock for petrochemicals by allowing aliphatic oxygen-containing compounds to contact with a swelling clay mineral including metal oxides. CONSTITUTION:The subject hydrocarbon oil is produced by bringing (A) aliphatic oxygen-containing organic compounds of 2 or more carbon atoms such as...

In an alarm for an enclosed space (eg a vehicle theft alarm) an externally accessible keyswitch (or the like) achieves temporary disarming to allow an authorised person sufficient access to an internal arming/disarming arrangement. The externally accessible device may be remotely actuable (eg by radio). The internal device may be associated with the ignition switch.

A filter element for a precoat filter has a septum 10 formed with longitudinal pleats having broad roots proximal to a perforate core and narrow tips distal from the core. The element may include circumferential supporting bands 80 spaced axially along the filter element and constraining the septum tips. In use a deposit of mechanical or ion exchange precoat is applied to the element before filter...
