| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 4417911 | Manufacture of optical fibre preforms In the manufacture of a glass optical fibre preform by forming a coating of oxide material on the interior surface of a substrate tube, in particular a coating of silica and one or more dopant oxides on a vitreous silica tube, by causing a reaction to tak... | 11/29/1983 |
| 4408378 | Apparatus for forming a filament coil of figure of eight conformation A length of filament, such as wire or optical fiber, is loosely coiled on a flat carrier, in the form of a figure of eight coil, the lobes of which are laid respectively in clockwise and anticlockwise directions, by feeding the filament downwards through ... | 10/11/1983 |
| 4315202 | Synchronous motors A synchronization arrangement for delaying excitation of the field winding (5) of a brushless synchronous motor until the motor rotor has run up approximately to synchronous speed in which the appropriate moment for applying the field excitation is determ... | 02/09/1982 |
| 4313247 | Apparatus for the manufacture of mineral insulated cables In apparatus for the manufacture of mineral insulated cable by a continuous process in which the tubular sheath is formed by bending and seam welding travelling metal strip, and insulating powder is fed through a powder delivery tube into the sheath while... | 02/02/1982 |
| 4269024 | Strength members for the reinforcement of optical fibre cables A continuous elongate strength member for reinforcing an optical fibre cable consists of an assembly of aromatic polyamide filaments impregnated with a synthetic resin, in which the filaments are individually coated with the resin, and the filaments of at... | 05/26/1981 |
| 4146766 | Actuating mechanisms for vacuum interrupters An actuating mechanism for a vacuum interrupter incorporates a pivotable bell crank mechanism and a displacement structure for imparting movement of the bell crank mechanism to a coupling structure which is connectable to a contact stem carrying the movab... | 03/27/1979 |
| 4112403 | Saturated reactor arrangements A saturated reactor adapted for direct connection to an EHV line and thus constituting a combined reactor and transformer. A problem arises in that earthing of the primary winding star point would normally short circuit the 3rd harmonic. The invention ove... | 09/05/1978 |
| 4092577 | Dynamic braking of direct current motors A braking system for, primarily, separately excited D.C. traction motors, in which rheostatic braking is effected by field reversal to generate armature current freewheeling through the low impedance supply and through a brake resistor in series with the ... | 05/30/1978 |
| 4065251 | Furnaces A furnace for heating one or more bodies in which heated gas is introduced into the furnace chamber through one or more injectors and are conveyed to the bodies in a manner involving appreciable resistance to gas flow. In a preferred arrangement a continu... | 12/27/1977 |
| 4058761 | Saturated reactors A saturated reactor of the type, for example the treble-tripler reactor, in which groups of 3-phase windings are connected in series to produce multiple flux phases in respective core limbs to achieve harmonic compensation. The windings are connected betw... | 11/15/1977 |
| 4017790 | Alternating current power transmission systems An alternating current power transmission system employing a long transmission line has a stabilizing arrangement comprising a plurality of alternating current saturated reactors connected to intermediate stations along its length, at least some of the re... | 04/12/1977 |
| 3950641 | Methods of mass spectrometry and mass spectrometers Ions are formed from an unknown substance in a first ion source of a double beam mass spectrometer and accelerated therefrom at a low accelerating voltage, e.g. 1kV or 2kV. Ions are formed from a reference substance in the second ion source and accelerate... | 04/13/1976 |
| 3946227 | Mass spectrographs and ion collector systems therefor To provide electrical outputs from very closely spaced ion collectors in a mass spectrograph, use is made of appropriately positioned wires or tapes which emit secondary electrons when struck by ions. The secondary electrons in turn strike respective scin... | 03/23/1976 |
