Title: Talking motion picture production
IPC: G11B7/28
Filed: 1927-06-21
Abstract: 297,407. Beatty, W. E., (Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc.). June 21, 1927. Records, optical; records, combined phonographic and kinematographic.-Relates to the production of combined sound and motion picture records. According to the invention, in recording, the sound and picture records are made photographically at the same time, with the sound record film running at a greater speed than the picturefilm, in order to obtain greater definition of the high frequencies, and the same speed ratio as is maintained in the running of the sound and picture negatives is maintained when they are being simultaneously printed to make a combined positive on a single film. An optical system, including one or more cylindrical lenses, may be used to reduce the width of the sound record on the positive as compared with that on the negative. The Figure shows apparatus for printing upon a sensitized film 12 a motion picture (record 13 and a sound record 20 which have been obtained by recording-apparatus in which the speed of the sound film is twice that off the picture film The sound record, in the form of transverse strice of various densities, is of greater width on the negative than is permissible on the positive, the space available for the sound record on the margin the picture film being small, and the necessary reduction in width in printing is obtained by using an optical system 27 - - 29, a cylindrical lens 29<1> also being used. The disadvantageous effect of the coarse granular structure of the negative film is thus eliminated. The films 12, 18, in contact with each other, pass downward over sprocket wheels 18, 18<1>, the film 12 being driven by a sprocket 24 operated by a shaft 32. This shaft is driven by a wheel 31 which also, through 2 : 1 gearing, moves the film 20 at twice the speed of the films 12, 13. Light, from a source 19, passing through an adjustable apercture 15, prints the pictures upon the film 12, the associated sound record being simultaneously printed at a different position in the length of the film, by light from a source 25 passing through the negative sound film 20, the optical system 27 - - 29<1>, and a slit 17.

Title: Process for producing titanium tetrachloride
Inventor: SAWADA SEIJI
IPC: C22B34/12
Filed: 1955-06-09
Abstract: Oxidic titanium bearing material is reacted with chlorine in the presence of carbon in a medium consisting of a melt of one or more chlorides or fluorides of alkali or alkaline earth metals to produce titanium tetrachloride.  Specified metals are sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and barium; specified solid reactants are titanium dioxide, rutile, ilmenite and slags, and charcoal or coke in the form of powder, granules or lumps.  The chlorine may be passed into the fused salt bath whilst the solids are charged on to the surface of the bath or the solid reactants may first be entrained in the chlorine and the mixture passed into the fused salt bath.  In carrying out the latter method, there may be used an electrically-heated, brick-lined furnace constructed of steel plates. The solid reactants are fed by a screw conveyer into a vertical chlorine supply line, become entrained in the gas and are passed into a molten bath in the furnace; products pass out of the furnace through a pipe and thence to a dust collector, condenser for titanium tetrachloride and effluent stack.  The fused salt bath is said to increase in bulk due to chlorination of impurities in the raw materials and may be discharged intermittently or continuously during the process.  Examples are given in which the temperature of chlorination is 850 DEG  or 900 DEG  C.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the lubrication of engines
IPC: F01M5/00
Filed: 1944-09-01
Abstract: 587,286. Lubricating. HEYWOOD, R. B. Sept. 1, 1944, No. 16727. [Class 12 (iii)] A lubricating system for engines wherein at starting only a small portion of the main body of oil is used in the circulation but in which the main body of oil is gradually brought into circulation as the main body of oil is warmed up comprises a main oil reservoir and an auxiliary reservoir which receives the return flow from the engine and from which the oil can pass to the main reservoir by a narrow pipe of substantial length immersed in the main body of oil, such passing of oil however being restricted by the high viscosity until the main body of oil has been warmed up, and the auxiliary reservoir having an alternative discharge direct to the inlet of the circulating pump. In the arrangement shown a circulating pump 2 draws oil from a partitioned-off portion 3 of a reservoir 1 formed by the engine sump and such oil on returning discharges into an auxiliary reservoir 4 which has a long narrow tube 6 for the passage of this oil back to the main reservoir 1. At starting therefore, when the main body of oil is cold, viscosity will restrict the return of oil through such narrow tube 6 and the circulated and warmed oil will therefore rise in the auxiliary reservoir 4 and overflow direct to the partitioned-off portion 3 of the reservoir and so continue to be re-circulated. The warm oil in the tube 6 will however gradually warm the main body of oil and the reduction in viscosity will allow a greater flow through the tube 6 so that eventually the auxiliary reservoir 4 empties and the whole body of oil is then used in the circulation the oil passing from the main reservoir 1 to the partitioned-off portion 3 by a small opening 8.

Title: Production of sodium carbonate
Inventor: BROOKS RICHARD
IPC: C01D7/37
Filed: 1963-04-29
Abstract: The pouring (bulk) density of light Na2CO3, obtained from the ammonia-soda process, is increased from about 0.5 gm./cc. by absorbing aqueous NaOH in and on the particles followed by carbonation with a CO2 bearing as (e.g. flue gas).  The density increase is greater than that theoretically calculated and by absorbing and carbonating 5% by weight NaOH, a density of 0.72 to 0.74 is obtained.  Above 5% NaOH the density increase is less rapid but still greater than theoretical.  The NaOH solution may be 45 to 50% by weight.  Carbonation may take place at 100 DEG  to 150 DEG  C. and excess of CO2 of 10 to 30% above theoretical may be employed.
