1316604 Oxidation catalysts BAYER AG 8 May 1970 [23 May 1969] 22322/70 Heading B1E [Also in Divisions C1 and G1] Supported catalysts are produced by suspending a silica-containing filler and a clay mineral in a stable aqueous silica sol, mixing the resulting suspension with an aqueous suspension of hydrated magnesium oxide, dispersing the resulting gellable mixture in a waterimmisible liquid and r...

A copper catalyst obtained by reducing a copper compound with formaldehyde in the presence of an alkali in an aqueous medium is an excellent catalyst for the hydrolysis of an unsaturated nitrile to an amide. Furthermore, when a copper compound is combined with another element, which is selected from a specific group of elements, during the preparation of the copper catalyst, a catalyst is formed w...

1470787 Joining yarns C P ISERN 18 Jan 1974 [19 Jan 1973] 02554/74 Heading D1W Two similar staple fibre yarns or rovings are joined by gripping each of the yarns at two spaced apart locations so as to define a yarn length therebetween, generally equal to the fibre length; twisting each length to untwist fibres therein from each other; moving apart the two locations of each yarn so as to break the ...

A profile-embossed grid electrode for storage batteries provided with parallel linear grooves on both surface and comprising a perforated metal conductor grid and a matching latticed plastic structure comprising parallel meshes. The metal-plastic grid is filled with the active material and it is covered on both sides with a woven or non-woven fabric. The electrode is then embossed on both sides wi...

Apparatus for assembling end feeding battery separator/plate sandwiches to be positioned at the input end of a conveyor C of a machine for sealing separator sleeves/pockets for use in multi-plate electrical batteries. The apparatus comprises a support frame 1 on which is mounted a flat assembly table 2 which is manually reciprocable on the frame 1, by means of a handle 9, between alternative assem...

A contactless motion detector, specifically an oscillator whose signal amplitude is attenuated or enhanced by the approach of a monitored metallic element, is periodically switched for brief periods into its alternate state by a train of short test pulses giving rise to corresponding checking pulses that are superimposed upon the integrated output voltage of the oscillator whereby that voltage is ...

A splicing head has a turbulence chamber which is circular in cross section. The turbulence chamber is cylindrical or has a cylindrical center portion and conical outwardly enlarging end portion, and an insertion slot. Air inlet passages open into the cylindrical portion along tangents and in opposite directions so that air under pressure through the passages creates circumferential flow in opposi...

A transmission includes a hydrodynamic transmission, such as a torque convertor or a fluid coupling, connectable to a drive source and driving an infinitely variable V-belt transmission having primary and secondary pulleys each constructed of two conical pulley discs. The drive ratio of the V-belt transmission is controlled by a pressure cylinder which adjusts the axial position of one of the pull...

The invention relates to 1-aminomethyl-6-phenyl-4H-s-triazolo[4,3-a][1,4]benzodiazepine compounds useful as sedatives, tranquilizers, anticonvulsants or hypnotics, and processes for their production.

PURPOSE:To discriminate the malfunction of a timing device by detecting no input of a timing signal within a prescribed period in an electronic computer to execute operations successively at a prescribed time interval by the timing signal from the timing device. CONSTITUTION:When a pushbutton switch 1 is depressed, a timing signal 7a is inputted to the electronic computer 3 through an input device...

A multiprocessor information processing system has an additional function to detect a fault occurring in a processor. A counter is provided for each of a plurality of processors for holding an associated fault supervising code. The code stored in the associated counter is periodically updated by the associated processor while the update status of the code is supervised on a cycle longer than the c...

A fibre optics head (10) comprises a light-emitting fibre (12) and light-collecting fibres (14) having transparent cores (15), and light- trapping means (28, 31) between them. The thickness of the light- trapping means (28, 31) is predeterminedly constructed at the ends of the fibres (12, 14) so that at least 50% of the specular reflection coming from the light ingress surface (27) of the indicato...

Apparatus and method for controlling an automatically running vehicle over a predetermined course which has guidelines intermittently placed therein. Vehicle commands used to negotiate the course under manual control are stored in a memory. The vehicle has sensors which detect the presence and location of the guidelines as the vehicle passes by. The vehicle travels the course under control of the ...

A method of manufacturing a self-supporting measuring probe suitable for application in a highly corrosive environment such as for example in a muffler or suction channel of a motor vehicle, is disclosed. The probe is provided with a protective foil which is applicable on a rigid substrate carrying the measuring layers, by means of a heat sealing process in which heat and pressure are simultaneous...

COMPRENDE UN TUBO (8) EXTRUIDO DE PLASTICO FLEXIBLE, CON UN PASO PRIMARIO, Y UN PRIMER, SEGUNDO Y TERCER PASO SECUNDARIO, CADA UNO DE LOS CUALES ES DE MENOR DIAMETRO QUE EL PRIMARIO, UNA PUNTA DE EXTREMO DISPUESTA (6), UNA ABERTURA PARA UN TUBO DE INFLACION (10), UNA ABERTURA DISTAL, UN BALON INFLABLE (12), FIJADO AL CATETER, Y DOS TUBOS (14, 16) CONECTADOS AL SEGUNDO Y TERCER ...

A manually releasable heel holder of a safety ski binding having a housing, a sole holder, a connecting arm movably connected to the housing and to the sole holder, a manually actuable releasing member for releasing the connecting arm from a locking to an unlocking position, allowing the sole holder to open under the influence of a spring and an interim lever for automatically releasing the connec...

The device is for peeling small shellfish, such as shrimps. It is formed similar to a pair of scissors of which one blade is thin and pointed to permit insertion from head-to-tail between the shell and the meat whilst the other blade is bent through 180 deg. to form a U-section with unequal sides between which the first blade enters when closed. - A rubber strip between the sides of the U-section ...
