Patent GB-848459-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to fugitive dyestuffs or tints derived from reactive anionic dyestuffs
Inventor: MEITNER WALTER
IPC: D06P5/13
Filed: 1957-03-13
Abstract: A fugitive dyestuff for tinting fibres for identification is made by causing a carbohydrate of relatively high molecular weight such as starch, degraded starches, or dextrines such as British gum, to react and combine with a reactive anionic dyestuff of the azoic or anthraquinonoid type containing solubilizing sulphonate groups and either a mono- or dichlortriazinyl group which is capable of fixation on cellulosic fibres by chemical linkage.  The components of the fugitive dye may be combined in the presence of alkali, e.g. sodium carbonat or bicarbonate, preferably at a pH of 10.  In applying the tint to a textile material, which may consist of or contain any natural or synthetic fibre, a solution in water of the compound of reactive anionic dyestuff and carbohydrate is prepared and this solution is applied by spraying, by immersion, or by means of a roller.  A textile spinning oil, or an organic sulphonic acid, e.g. toluene sulphonic acid, or other additives may be incorporated in the solution.  The tints may subsequently be removed by washing with the aid of a detergent.  In the production of the fugitive dye, the carbohydrate and reactive dyestuffs may be heated together in aqueous alkaline solution. The solution is then cooled and the complex is precipitated by adding ethyl or methyl alcohol.  The product is washed with aqueous alcohol and may then be dissolved in water. Alternatively, the aqueous alkaline solution may be passed through an anionic exchange resin which retains unreacted dye but allows the complex to pass through, or the solution may be subjected to dialysis, the complex being retained by the membrane.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Range Finders.
Inventor: BARNES EDWIN
IPC: G01C3/10
Filed: 1916-06-14
Abstract: 122,200. Barnes, E., Chase, L. H., and Phillips, R. W. L. June 14, 1916. Range-finders for use against aircraft comprise two sighting-devices, which are placed at the ends of a base-line and are each capable of rotation about a horizontal and a vertical axis. The movements of one of the sighting-devices are imparted to a vertical screen (or equivalent) rotatable on a vertical axis and to a pointer rotatable on a horizontal axis carried by the screen, and the movement of the other sighting-device about its vertical axis is imparted to an optical-projection device which is rotatable about a vertical axis spaced away from the vertical axis of the screen by a distance representing the base-length, and indicates on the screen a vertical plane passing through the axis of rotation of the projection device. The intersection of the plane indicated with the 'pointer gives the position of the object sighted. In the construction shown in Fig. 1, the sighting-device A is mounted on a platform B which forms the roof of a chamber having within it the range-indicating apparatus. The vertical screen C', which is preferably translucent, is carried on a spindle A<5> on which the sighting- device A is mounted. The pointer D' pivoted on a horizontal axis D is maintained parallel to the sighting-device A by means of a tape D<4> passing over pulleys A<2>, D<2>. The projection-device H<2> is carried by a receiver H connected to a transmitter actuated by the movements about its vertical axis of the other sighting-device, the transmission mechanism preferably being that described in Specification 122,424, [Class 40 (i), Electric signalling systems &c.]. The receiver H is mounted on a rod G fixed in a radial position to the casing A<6> supporting at its upper end the sighting-device A. The projection device is shown in Fig. 8, and comprises an electric lamp having a straight filament J arranged in a casing with a narrow slit J<2>. A wire J<3> is provided to cast a shadow. A mirror J<4> is provided to reflect the beam of light over a wide angle. The screen may be ruled with lines in addition to the height and distance, to give information such as the time of flight of a projectile. The screen may also be fixed, and the arm carrying the projector may be made to rotate in the opposite direction to the telescope A. Or the arm may rotate with the telescope A and the projector device be turned in the opposite sense to the other telescope. The screen may be replaced by a framework carrying a vertical pointer capable of being horizontally traversed. A small target screen may be provided on the vertical pointer. More than two sighting-devices may be employed.

Title: Brake control system
IPC: B64C25/48
Filed: 1944-05-05
Abstract: 586,030. Steering motor vehicles. BOLDT, W. F. May 5, 1944, No. 8567. [Class 79 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXIV] Valves in the supply pipes of the 'fluidpressure operated brakes of the driving wheels at either side of a vehicle are arranged to be selectively closed by a cam to assist steering, by operation of the steering mechanism that controls the steering wheels. The valves may also be operated independently of the steering mechanism. As shown, a pedal operated master cylinder is connected by a pipe 18 to valve casing 22 from which also lead pipes, 20, 21 connected respectively to the brakes of the driving wheels at either side of a tractor vehicle. Slidable members 26, 27 each carrying a valve 30 are controlled by cams 32, 33. Arms 42, 44 on the shafts 35, 34 are linked respectively to the usual front wheel steering mechanism and to the change speed gear lever. With the steering gear in straight ahead position and the gear lever in low speed position the valves 30 are unseated as shown. With movement of the steering mechanism for a sharp right-hand turn, the cam is turned clockwise thus permitting one of the springs 31 to move the member 27 to seat the valve 30 and so to close the pipe 21. Only the right-hand wheel brake is thus applied upon operation of the master cylinder. Similarly, by movement of the steering mechanism in the opposite direction the pipe 20 is closed. When the gear lever is in a high speed position, the cam 32 is positioned to prevent movement of the members 26, 27 from the position shown to avoid the danger which would result from the application of the brake on one side 'only at high speeds when a sharp turn is made. To permit the valves to be selectively closed independently of operation of the steering gear so that for instance, a wheel on soft ground may be braked to assist in getting the vehicle on to firm ground, the shaft 35 is eccentrically mounted in a rotatable. plug 36 which when turned in one direction or the other by a hand lever 38 shifts the cam bodily in the corresponding direction thus closing one of the valves 30. If the lever 38 is in position to close the pipe of the left-hand brake for instance, further movement of the cam 33 by the steering of the mechanism will be such that the pipe will be closed when a right-hand turn of the wheels is made even if the turn is not sharp but it will be opened by a left-hand turn so that both brakes will be applied if the master cylinder is operated.

Title: A process for the purification of liquid halosilanes or halogermanes
IPC: C01B33/08
Filed: 1961-03-09
Abstract: Phosphorus impurities are removed from liquid halosilanes or halogermanes by adding a halogen and a stoichiometric excess of tin tetrahalide and/or titanium tetrahalide to the liquid to form a solid substantially non-volatile complex compound of phosphorus by reaction with the phosphorus impurities involving oxidation of the phosphorus to its pentavalent state, then separating the liquid from the solid complex compound formed and from the excess of tetrahalide employed. The halogen, which may be chlorine or bromine, is preferably used in a proportion of 1-1000 times the stoichiometric amount required to oxidize all the phosphorus present to its pentavalent state, and the tetrahalide is preferably used in a proportion of 10-1000 times the stoichiometric amount required to form the complex compound MCl4.PX5, where M is Sn or Ti and X is Cl or Br.  The process may be carried out at 15-30 DEG  C., and the treated liquid allowed to stand at this temperature for 2-24 hours before it is separated from the complex formed.  The treated liquid after separation, e.g. by distillation, may be treated with triphenylmethyl chloride to eliminate any residual tin or titanium tetrahalide with simultaneous removal by the same reagent of traces of boron, aluminium, gallium, indium, thallium, vanadium, titanium, and antimony which may have been present initially. Liquids treated in the examples are trichlorosilane and a mixture of trichlorosilane with silicon tetrachloride and dichlorosilane.
