Abstract

859,579. Determining physical qualities of materials. LONDON HOSPITAL (LIGATURE DEPARTMENT) Ltd. Oct. 6, 1959 [Oct. 16, 1958], No. 33043/58. Class 37 A method of testing rubber gloves for punctures comprises immersing the part to be tested in an electro-conductive liquid and applying between the liquid and the interior surface of the glove a voltage supplied by a circuit including means for indicating a flow of current if the glove is punctured. The glove is placed on the hand of an operator and inserted in a saline bath 3, Fig. 1, contained in a conducting bowl 2, the circuit being completed by the operator placing his forehead against a pad 5 held by an arm 4. The circuit completed by the path between electrodes 2, 5 comprises a micro-ammeter 7 (Figs. 1, 2) variable resistor 9 and potentiometer 10 across battery 12. On-off switch 11 is also provided which additionally closes the circuit of a battery 16 and indicator lamp 17. The voltage available from) battery 12 may be tested by means of a circuit comprising resistor 14, " test " switch 15 and relay 13: if the battery voltage is sufficient, closure of switch 15 causes relay 13 to operate, whereupon closure of the relay contacts causes lamp 8 to be lit. A simple alternative circuit is also described in the Specification (Fig. 3, not shown) comprising a micro-ammeter cut-out and battery in series between the electrodes 2, 5: battery testing is performed by means of a switch which connects a resistance across the electrodes 2, 5. In this circuit, the micro-ammeter may be replaced by a relay the contacts of which close a further circuit including a warning lamp (Fig. 4, not shown): in case of lamp failure a second lamp is connected in series with a ballast resistor across the first.
