Granted: 1897-02-13
Abstract: 304. James, R. W., [Matheson & Co., W. J.]. Jan. 5. Amides, acid.-Aceto derivatives of the simpler aromatic amines, such as aniline, toluidine, xylidine, and naphthylamine, are produced by heating a salt of the amine with an acetate, or by heating a mixture of an amine, an acid such as sulphuric acid, and an acetate at a moderately-elevated temperature. For example, aniline hydrochloride and sodium acetate in the anhydrous condition, and in approximately molecular proportions, are heated whilst stirring to 125‹ C., and the heating is continued at this temperature for 12 to 24 hours. The product is treated with water to remove soluble substances, and the crystals of acetanilide remaining are purified in the usual manner. Alternatively, the crude product may be treated with wood spirit, or the like, for extracting the acetanilide.

Granted: 1898-08-13
Abstract: 18,941. Junge, C., [Vester, M.]. Aug. 16. Signals, electric-bell indicating ringing of bells to operators.-An alarm or signal is given in any number of receiver stations, such as the bedrooms of a hotel, from a central station, such as the servants' room, the operations being at the same time duly recorded and indicated in the central station. The lower part of the Figure represents the central station, and the upper part one of the receiving-stations, the electric circuits being arranged as shown. To give an alarm or signal, the push A is moved downwards to make contact with a, thus completing the circuit from the battery S along I, a, A, II, electromagnet E, II, stop C, electromagnet E<2>, III, electromagnet E<3> and III, to battery S. The armature h of the electromagnet E is provided with a needle, which records the operation on a band s carried on a revolving drum t. The electromagnet E<3> has a bell or indicating-diaphragm p. The electromagnet E' rings an ordinary electric or alarm bell. The armature of the electromagnet E' is, when in the normal position of rest, held by a stop C, but when the electromagnet is energized as described, the armature is attracted downwards, thus allowing the stop, under the influence of a spring, to assume the position shown in dotted lines. When in this position it makes contact with the part IV, thus completing a fresh circuit by which the electromagnets E<2>, E<3> are still energized. To stop the ringing of the bell actuated by the electromagnet E<2>, the push B is operated to bring the stop C to the position of rest. When the push B is thus operated, it at the same time makes contact at b, thus closing a third circuit by which the electromagnets E, E' are energized, the latter serving to operate a visible indicator o. When, as on the occasion of fire, it is desired to operate simultaneously the bells in all the receiving- stations, a sliding board which is automatically held down by catches is used to press on all the pushes A.

Abstract: 1903. Waite, F., and Waite & Saville. Jan 27. Platen presses; chases, securing in machines.- Relates more particularly to improvements in the machine described in Specification No. 12,878, A.D. 1898. Instead of an oscillating platen with grippers for taking the sheet, a stationary platen C is used, and the grippers are mounted on arms secured to the rock shaft C<2> actuated in the manner described in the above Specification, so as to take the sheet from the feed-board and carry it over the face of the platen C. The type bed D is carried by arms 2 on a rock shaft 3, and is operated by the rods D' and crank-pins D<3>. The ends of the rods D<2> are pivoted to the eccentric ends 5 of the shaft 6 journalled in the bearings 7 of the arms 2. On the shaft 6 is fixed an arm 10, held by a spring 62 and stop 63, in position to be engaged by a roller 12 as the bed swings towards the platen. The roller 12 is on a lever 13, 15 normally operated by an arm 16 and spring 17 to move the roller 12 and prevent it from operating the arm 10. The arm 16 is on the shaft 3. To the upper end of the arm 13 is pivoted a bar 19 which slides through a guide-stud 20. On the bar 19 is a shoulder 24 with which a detent lever 21 may be engaged to stop the movement of the arm 13, and cause the roller 12 to operate the arm 10 to throw off the impression. The lever 21 is pivoted at 23, and has a weighted arm 22. The lever 21 may be depressed to throw off the impression at alternate operations, for the purpose of double rolling, by a projection on a lever 8, which extends over the lever 21. The lever 8 is pivoted at 23 and operated by a notched cam disc 27 rotated intermittently by ratchet mechanism the pawl arm 35 of which is actuated by a pin 36 on one of the gripper arms or other moving part. On the shaft of the cam-wheel 27 is another cam-wheel which prevents the feed-table from being moved to feed the sheet at alternate operations. A weighted arm 30 pivoted on the lever 8 may be thrown over on to the lever 21 to depress it and throw off the impression when desired. The Provisional Specification also describes a means for securing the chase on the bed, in which the chase is fitted between vertical guides and is engaged at its upper end by a spring claw and at its lower end by a claw or support regulated by a screw.

Granted: 1900-04-28
Abstract: 10,624. Brooke, R. G. May 19. Gauge-glass fittings.-The automatic safety-valves 6, 6 are placed in chambers 5, 5 having inclined sides 4<a>, 5<a> so as normally to be out of the way and allow clear through passages, after removing the plugs a, a, for a cleaning-wire. The principal feature of the invention is the provision of means by which a blow through can be effected through a comparatively contracted passage without seating the safety-valves, while, for testing if the valves are in working order, a full-bore discharge can be effected, which will at once cause the valves to close the ports 4, 4. For this purpose, a cock 10 is provided, having a large port 11<a> and a small port 11 at right-angles to each other. As the lower ball is very sensitive in its action, the lower fitting is preferably arranged as shown and as described in Specification No. 5208, A.D. 1900. When the passage 11<a> is in line with the gauge glass 1, a full-bore discharge takes place, but by turning the cock so that the passages 11<a>, 5<b> are aligned and the contracted passage 11 comes over the drain pipe 12, the force of the discharge is insufficient to seat the upper ball, while the lower ball is held down by the flow being directed through the lower chamber 5. 201
