Title: Production of smooth electrodeposits
IPC: C25F3/02
Filed: 1947-04-18
Abstract: 626,244. Electrodeposition of copper. DU PONT DE NEMOURS & CO., E. I. April 18, 1947, No. 10365. Convention date, April 17, 1946. [Class 41] A process for the electrodeposition of copper on articles includes a smoothing process wherein an initial copper deposit is made alternately cathodic and anodic for substantially equal periods of time from 1 to 5 seconds duration in an electrolyte containing copper cyanide. Preferably the initial deposition of copper takes place immediately before the smoothing process and the two processes takes place in the same electrolyte. As an example, a steel article is electroplated with copper in a bath containing copper cyanide, sodium cyanide, sodium hydroxide, and sodium sulphocyanide. The bath may also contain a brightener and anti-pitting agent consisting of a mixed aqueous solution of C-cetyl betaine and benzyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. The article is then made an electrode in a copper cyanide solution, which may be the same solution in which it was electroplated. The article is in circuit with a source of direct current and relays connected to a timing device so that the current is reversed every three seconds until the desired smoothing effect is obtained. Subsequent electroplating may be carried out which will produce a relatively thick, smooth copper deposit. In another example the article after being subjected to the electrolytic smoothing process is plated in a nickel bath containing nickel sulphate, nickel chloride, and boric acid. Specification 528,762 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the reproduction of colour television signals
Inventor: THEILE RICHARD
IPC: H04N9/24
Filed: 1952-04-25
Abstract: 743,648. Television. PYE, Ltd. April 24, 1953, [April 25, 1952], No. 10493/52. Class 40 (3). In a colour television receiver colour-sensitive photo-electric cells illuminated by the produced colour picture are rendered operative in a sequence dependent of the order of the received component colour signals and supply control signals to suppress the beam of the picture tube to prevent the production of colours other than those corresponding to the instantaneous colour modulation signals. Fig. 2 shows one embodiment in which p.e. cells 10, 11, 12 rendered sensitive to the component colours (e.g. red, green and blue) by means of filters 13, 14, 15 are positioned to receive light from the screen 9 of a colour picture tube the cells being sequentially blanked " off " by means of pulses from a source 18 in synchronism with the application of a corresponding colour signal to the tube modulating electrode. The p.e. cells which are sensitive to the other two component colours are then effective to supply a blanking signal (via amplifier 17) to the picture tube when the beam, modulated by one of the component colours, impinges on screen elements appropriate to either of the other two colours. The blanking signals may also be employed to accelerate the beam scanning velocity when it is passing over colour elements not appropriate to the instantaneous colour component modulation. In a second embodiment (Fig. 4) the tube beam is pulsed " on " and " off " by means of a sinusoidal wave from generator 19 and the frequency (and phase) of this wave is controlled by the outputs of the p.e. cells 10, 11, 12 (which are sequentially blanked " off " as described in connection with Fig. 2) and frequency discriminator 20 in such manner that the beam is " on " only when it impinges screen elements appropriate to the instantaneous colour modulation.

Abstract: 537,806. Valves. VAPOR CAR HEATING CO., Inc. June 18, 1940, No. 10558. Convention date, Aug. 14, 1939. [Class 135] [Also in Group XIII] In a steam heating system, valves B, B<SP>1</SP>, B" controlling the steam supply to radiators C, C\ C<SP>11</SP> respectively may each be manually operated by a lever 9 pivoted at 12, engaging another lever 13 on the valve spindle 14, which is alternatively actuated by solenoids 17, 18. The solenoids are connected in circuits which are alternatively energised by a thermostat in the space heated by the radiator, acting through an electromagnetic relay. Each valve allows steam to pass through the corresponding radiator, or direct from pipe 2 to pipe 6. A cylindrical valve chamber 40, Fig. 4, receives a rotary valve member 42, mounted on spindle 14 which passes through sealing ring 52 fixed in the cap 43 co-operating with ring 53 rotating with the spindle. A spring 54 holding the rings in contact is enclosed in a metallic bellows 56. A recess 57 receives leakage and discharges it to passage 58. The electrical assembly is carried by plate 59. Fig. 8 shows the arrangement of ports in the disc 42, the disc being placed in "open" position, and Fig. 5 the arrangement of ports in the seating. Inlet passage 64 leads to port 66 and outlet port 67 to outlet passage 65. Port 70 and passage 72 or 73 lead to the radiator and passage 74 or 75 and port 67 form the return conduit from the radiator. A drain port 78 opens into chamber 76 and outlet 77, and another drain port 79 is arranged near the port 70, and is connected by an internal passage 80 to chamber 76. The valve disc 42 is provided with recesses 82, 83 sufficient to bridge the ports 66, 70 and 67, 71 respectively, and the recess 83 has an extension 85 which registers with the inlet port 66 when the disc is in the "off" position. Three passages extend completely through the disc, of which two 86, 88 are shown and the third 87 terminates in recess 82. The passage of steam to and from the radiator is indicated by arrows in Fig. 8. Steam passes through port 87 to the back of the valve disc to press it against the seating, and ports, 86, 88, 78, 79 are closed. Condensate returns through pipe 5 to the next unit. When the disc is rotated 30 degrees clockwise to shut off the radiator, ports 66, 67 are directly connected. Condensate from pipes 4, 5 drains into chamber 40 and thence through ports 88, 78 to chamber 76. Vent 79 also connects through recess 82 and port 70 with the radiator to break the vacuum.

Title: Improvements in or relating to a detergent for use in and a process for washing, laundering or the like
IPC: C11D1/00
Filed: 1934-04-09
Abstract: A detergent composition comprises a plurality of ingredients each in the form of separate particles or grains, the several ingredients being so chosen as to have different rates of solubility.  With such a detergent there is produced in a bath containing goods to be cleaned, successive solutions of different chemical composition, each such solution being that most suited to the performance of the several stages of the washing &c., operation.  The solubilities of the several ingredients are determined by their chemical composition, although they may be modified to some extent by the fineness of the particles; and it is possible to employ the same substance but in different particle sizes in one composition.  A suitable composition comprises on the one hand readily soluble alkali and albumen-coagulation inhibitors or reversants such as soda ash, caustic soda and trisodium phosphate, or rather less readily soluble alkalies such as hydrated alkali silicates, simple or compound, such as those of Specification 200,175, [Class 91], also the anhydrous compound silicates described in Specification 339,355, [Class 91], if sufficiently finely ground, and on the other hand more slowly soluble emulsifiers or wetting agents such as soaps of relatively high titre or anhydrous simple or mixed alkali silicates such as those described in Specifications 339,355 and 357,224.  Other coagulation inhibitors are alkali benzoates, oxalates and fluorides, and glycerine, glycol &c.  In addition to the other ingredients there may be added a soap of relatively low titre or a sulphonated oil or alcohol to act as an indicator; the latter also serve to lay the dust when the detergent is being handled.  A detergent as described permits of the employment of bath temperatures above 100 DEG  F., even as high as 130 DEG  F., so shortening the washing operation.
