Abstract: 17,123. Bloxam, A. G., [Akt.-Ges. f³r Anilin-Fabrikation]. July 26. Indophenols are obtained from those derivatives of 1:8-diaminonaphthalene in which a heteronuclear ring is found by inclusion of a carbon or nitrogen atom, such as perimidine and its derivatives, dihydrothioperimidone, dihydroperimidone, or 1:8-aziminonaphthalene, by oxidation with p-aminophenol or its derivatives, or by condensation with quinone chlorimide or its derivatives. Products are specified from:- 2-methylperimidine and 2:6-dichlor-p-aminophenol; perimidine or 2-phenylperimidine and quinone chlorimide; dihydrothioperimidone or dihydroperimidone and quinone chlorimide or dichlorquinone chlorimide; 1:8-aziminonaphthalene and dichlorquinonechlorimide. Leucoindophenols are obtained by reducing the above-described indophenols.

IPC: F16K29/02
Filed: 1912-09-05
Granted: 1913-09-05
Abstract: 20,249. Eynon, T. M. June 1, [Convention date]. Sliding valves; actuating; rotating to ensure even wear.-Relates to a screw-operated gate valve having a single valve face, or parallel faces seating on oppositely-disposed valve seatings, and having selective means for rotating and grinding the valve faces during the opening and closing movements, or for rotating the valve faces on their seats while in the closed position, or for opening and closing the valve without rotation of the valve faces. In the construction shown, the valve faces or disks 12 are rotatably mounted in a vertically-sliding carrier 14 with which the screw operating-stem 27 has a rotary engagement by tangential pins 24. The disks 12 are formed with bevel teeth 38 engaged by a bevel-pinion 40 mounted in and rotating with the operating stem 27 by means of a key-pin 43. The valve disks are thus rotated during the rotary movement of the stem 27 to open and close the valve. By removing the pin 43, the valve can be opened and closed without rotation of the valve disks. By dismantling the valve and removing the bonnet 29, the valve may be reinserted and the valve disks ground in contact with their seats. The valve disks are preferably eccentrically mounted, and have an interposed spring 47 to press them towards their seats. The hole 44 in the stem 41 of the pinion 40 for the key-pin 43 is preferably made larger so as to allow a certain amount of free play between the teeth, so that there may be some yielding between the parts of the gear in case of obstruction.

Granted: 1913-08-14
Abstract: 1892. King, A., and Torbinia Engineering Co. Jan. 23. Lever-actuated pumps; stroke, varying.-A strokevarying mechanism for the fuel-pump of an internal-combustion engine comprises a lever or ' pecker' which is interposed between two members of the pump-actuating levers and which is coupled to the piston of an air-cylinder. The pump plunger is spring-actuated on the suction stroke, and the controlling-piston is also moved on its return stroke by a spring. The pump plunger 12, Fig. 1, is actuated by a lever 2, a rocking arm 1, and a pecker 3 which acts on a pin D in the pivoted rod 10. The pecker 3 is coupled to a piston-rod 6 by a rod 4. Ports 14 allow air to be sucked in, during the up-stroke, which is performed by the arm 1 contacting with the head 5. The air is compressed on the down. stroke and forced past the valve 16. The speed of the down-stroke is constant for a given setting of the valve 16 ; consequently the pecker is brought down opposite different parts of the pin D, and alters the stroke of the piston-rod 12 since the speed of the other parts vary with the speed of the engine 1. In a modification for two pumps, the rocking arm actuates a plunger which forces air to the lower part of the pecker-controlling piston, the supply being controlled by a valve. The whole apparatus is enclosed in a cast-iron box.

Title: Improvements in Gas Valves and Means for Operating the same.
Inventor: BROENDUM MAGNUS VILHELM
IPC: F23Q21/00
Filed: 1914-04-24
Granted: 1915-07-15
Abstract: 10,186. Brondum, M. V. April 24. Valves controlled from a distance.-Relates to apparatus for operating a gas valve by a sudden increase of gas pressure, and more particularly of the kind in which the valve is operated through ratchet mechanism, the parts 1, 2 of the gas chamber on either side of a dividing- diaphragm 3 communicating through a pressure-equalizing duct 6, 7. According to the invention, the diaphragm is normally closed by a spring 14 against the mouth of a cavity 36 communicating with the atmosphere through a duct 39. A sudden increase of the gas pressure in the chamber 1 lifts the diaphragm off the support 35, whereby the whole of the area of the diaphragm is exposed to the gas pressure and its effective area is increased for the completion of the operation. The valves are operated through lever mechanism 34, 31, 33, 30 which rotates the cam disk 28 and rocks a valve lever 21, 22 controlling t h e gas supply to the main and pilot burners alternately. The tension of the spring 14 is adjusted by means of a screwed spindle 15, and the area of the support 35 may be, as in a modification, adjustable. In a modification, for use with high-pressure gas, a secondary diaphragm is used in the chamber 36. The cam-disk for operating the valve lever may also have bevel projections on both sides arranged in staggered relation.
