Title: Method of Producing Polychromatic Screens for the Production of Photographs in Natural Colours.
Inventor: SZCZEPANIK JAN
Filed: 1908-08-13
Granted: 1908-10-15
Abstract: 17,065. Szczepanik, J. Aug. 14, 1907, [date applied for under Section 91 of Patents &c. Act, 1907]. Colour photography; screens.-Screens are made by a method based on the known property possessed by various dye-stuffs of behaving selectively towards other substances to be stained therewith, and especially on the differential behaviour of the acid and basic dye-stuffs towards gelatine, collodion, lacs, &c. By one method, three solutions of gelatine are stained with non-mixable dye-stuffs having a stronger affinity for collodion. The gelatine is made brittle and ground to a fine powder, and a collodionized surface is then coated with these powders. The dye-stuffs migrate into the collodion, and the colourless powder may be removed by washing. Alternatively, the gelatine may be dyed after powdering, and only two colours may be applied in this way, the third being filled in by a bath containing the third dye-stuff dissolved in gelatine. Or again, instead of dusting, the substratum may be sprayed directly with the coloured liquids. By another method, a collodionized substratum is covered with colourless gelatine to the extent of one-half the surface by regular figures. Regular figures are applied cross-ways to cover one-third of the surface with a yellow-green varnish colour. The film is then bathed in. a mixture of methylene blue and erythroxine, one which stains the collodion and the other the gelatine, and neither affects the yellow-green varnish colour. Or again, the fatty colour may be applied first, the gelatine solution stained with rhodamine being applied over it. The red migrates into the collodion, and the free collodion can afterwards be coloured into methylene blue, the covering of gelatine being subsequently removed. In another method, a tissue or fabric is formed of stained filaments ; or a block is made by pressing staining- powders or by piling-up gelatine leaves. The block surface or fabric is then used as a printing- block by applying to a collodionized surface, and they may be used to obtain several screens. The emulsion material must be different from the substance of the screen. For the production of pictures upon opaque substrata, such as paper, the substratum is first rendered transparent, and is coated with a collodion or other coating for making a screen ; it is then coated, and, after finishing, the substances rendering it transparent are removed, to restore the original opacity.

Title: Means for Producing Sound Waves.
Inventor: COTE LOUIS EUCLIDE
IPC: G08B3/14
Filed: 1910-01-26
Granted: 1911-01-26
Abstract: 2033. Cote, L. E., and Kelley, W. F. Jan. 26. Gas - explosion signals. - Relates to means for producing sounds of definite pitch by rapidly-succeeding explosions of gaseous mixtures. Five arrangements are described. In the first of these, shown in Fig. 1, the supply of gas mixture from a pipe 7 to a resonator 1 is controlled by a valve 8 operated by a spring tongue 5, which is mounted in a slot at the closed end of the resonator so as to respond to the pressure-variations therein. In the normal working of the apparatus, stationary soundwaves exist in the resonator 1. When a phase of rarefaction exists at the closed end of the resonator, the spring 5 opens the valve 8 and admits the explosive mixture. During the succeeding phase of condensation, the valve 8 closes, and an electric circuit is broken at 15, causing a spark to pass between the points 10, whereby an explosion is produced and the degree of condensation is augmented. In the second arrangement, the gas mixture is supplied continuously through a water-cooled pipe to a funnel containing a permanently active igniting-device, such as a wire grid heated to incandescence by an electric current. In this case, the frequency of the explosions depends on the rate of supply of the gases and the distance of the igniter from the end of the supply tube. In the third arrangement, shown in Fig. 4, the supply of gas-mixture to a funnel 22 is made intermittent by a rotary valve 24, but the average velocity of the incoming gas mixture in the small end of the funnel 22 is arranged to be greater than the velocity with which the explosive flame propagates itself backwards, so that a flame of combustion is continuouslv maintained and no special igniting - device is required. A pocket 23 maintains a small flow of gas during the interruptions of the main supply. The length of the resonator is automatically adjusted by a ball governor 27. In the fourth arrangement, the explosive mixture is supplied through a hollow shaft to a number of chambers in a rotating wheel. Each chamber contains a sparking-device which, at a certain stage of the rotation, is connected in circuit and causes an explosion, and immediately thereafter the mouth of the chamber is brought into communication with the small end of a funnel into which it discharges the exploded products. In the fifth arrangement, shown in Fig. 6, the explosive mixture in a compressed state is admitted through ports in a rotary valve 45 to a circle of chambers 42 in which the mixture is ignited by devices 53. By means of a second series of ports in the valve 45, each chamber is connected after the explosion to the funnel 44.
