Granted: 1912-10-15
Abstract: 20,453. Ullmann, F. Oct. 17, 1910, [Convention date]. Samples furnished. Anthraquinonethioxanthone derivatives. - Vat dyes are obtained by condensing bromanthraquinone-1:2-thioxanthones, containing the bromine in the benzene nucleus and produced by brominating anthraquinone-1 : 2-thioxanthone, with a-aminoanthraquinone or alkyl, alkoxy, or #-halogen derivatives thereof. According to an example, a product dyeing cotton red-brown shades is obtained by condensing a-aminoanthraquinone with the bromanthraquinone-1:2-thioxanthone produced by brominating anthraquinone-1:2-thioxanthone in presence of nitrobenzene and iodine. The Specification as open to inspection under Section 91 (3) (a) describes the use of bromanthraquinonethioxanthones obtained by brominating anthraquinonethioxanthones or derivatives thereof, and aminoanthraquinones or derivatives thereof, as parent materials. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Typographic Composing Machines.
IPC: B41B25/00
Filed: 1912-01-15
Granted: 1913-01-15
Abstract: 1187. Booth, J. B. S., and Lanston Monotype Corporation. Jan. 15. Strip-perforating machines; justifying type. -Relates to machines of the kind described in Specification 18,638/99, and particularly to means for facilitating the justification of tabular matter in which each line consists of two or more independently-justifiable sections. The justification-indicator is made responsive to the operation of the justifying key or keys at any part of the line, and a series of adjustable stops are arranged to co-operate with the emscale rack to form zero stops for the commencement of the different sections. The motor-rack A, Fig. 3, of the line-measuring mechanism has a series of stops L which act as abutments for the justification rack J which rotates the indicator drum K. The stops L co-operate with a catch M pivoted to the rack J and normally held out of engagement by a stationary abutment N. When the justification key is operated, the rack J is advanced by its piston J<1> until the catch M, being released from the abutment N, engages one of the stops L. Upon the operation of the re-setting-key, the rack J is returned to initial position, and the linemeasuring mechanism is returned until the emscale rack H, Fig. 1, is arrested by one of a series of adjustable stops O which form the commencement of the different sections. The stops O are adjustably mounted on a bar O<1> and have sliding portions o<5> which rest on the em-scale rack H and drop down behind the end of the rack as it passes them. A series of pointers P are adjusted at suitable points on the fixed emscale G to indicate the ends of the different sections, the progress of composition being indicated by a pointer h carried by the rack H. The adjustable zero-stop I and one or more of the stops O are then adjusted relatively to the pointers P at the commencement of successive sections, which are arranged to overlap so that the first stop O is released by the em-scale rack during the composition of the first section, and so on. As the end of each section is approached, the justification key and the re-setting key are depressed, whereupon the rack H moves back into contact with the stop O behind it and the composition of the next section is begun from this point. When the end of the line is reached, the sliding parts of all the stops O are raised by a hand-operated bar o<9> to permit the rack H to return to initial position. Specifications 15,545/06 and 17,199/08 are also referred to.

Feeding webs; cutting - apparatus.-Relates to the feeding - apparatus of a machine for severing from a web of material lengths corresponding exactly with the circumference of a printing-cylinder or drum. The web is delivered from a continuous source of supply and looped between that and an intermittent take and pull mechanism which is adapted to seize the free end of the web, take up the whole of the loop, and be automatically disengaged from the material as soon as it becomes taut. The cutter is then operated through gearing which secures an operation at the termination of each complete revolution of the printing - cylinder or other drum. The web o is delivered from a continuous source of supply (not shown) and passes through an intermittentlyactuated feed-mechanism comprising a drum d and a coacting band k. The drum d is intermittently driven to feed the end of the material from the cutting-mechanism n, m into a position to be engaged by grippers c on a continuously rotating drum b, driven faster than the source of supply, which serves to draw in completely the loop formed during the inoperative period of the drum d. The grippers c are closed by an adjustable spring and opened by a cam, and are such as to allow the web to become readily disengaged therefrom as soon as the web becomes taut. The drum b is driven at the same angular velocity as the printing-cylinder or drum, but at about twice the peripheral speed. The printing-cylinder or drum may constitute the continuous source of supply or may be placed between that and the severing-means. The intermittent feed-mechanism and the take and pull mechanism may be replaced by reciprocating members of well-known construction.

Granted: 1913-11-27
Abstract: 27,339. Singer Manufacturing Co., and Cousland, H. Nov. 28. Sewing-machines; feed by clamps.-Relates to machines for producing closely spaced parallel lines of stitching on the backs of gloves and other articles. The work is held in a clamp, of which the upper jaw is formed by a long narrow frame 43 and the lower jaw by a corresponding rabbeted gap in a frame 35. The frame 35 is slidingly mounted in a second frame 31 which is slidingly mounted for transverse movements upon the edge 25 of the worksupport. The frame 31 is shifted, to move the work laterally, by a hand-lever 94 pivoted at 96 to the work-support, and at 92 to an extension 91 of the frame. A catch 100 on the lever normally engages with a notch 105, and holds the frame in its central position. The limiting positions of the lever 94 and consequently of the frame and the work-clamp are determined by a pair of symmetrically-arranged lugs 109 which engage with inclined surfaces 110 on the lever. The plate 107 upon which the lugs are formed may be adjusted to bring the lugs into line with a wider or a narrower part of the lever and so vary its range of movement. Longitudinal movement is given to the work by means of two ratchet pawls 71, 72, Fig. 2, pivoted upon a reciprocating carrier. The pawls are pressed by a spring into engagement with two racks 40 on the underside of the frame 35. The feed is stopped by moving a spring- pressed part 113 into the path of the tail 73 of the pawl 72 and removing the pawls from engagement with the racks. For this purpose, the pawls have parts 74, 75 which are united by a pin-and-slot joint. The reciprocating pawlcarrier is mounted on a spindle carried by arms on a shaft 64 and is free to move longitudinally on the spindle to adjust itself to the various lateral positions of the frame 35. The shaft 64 is actuated through an adjustable mechanism commonly used in Singer machines for varying the feed. The upper member 43 of the clamp is carried by a plate 47 secured upon a block 49 pivoted upon a bracket 51, 54 secured to the lower member 35. The clamp is closed against the action of a spring by means of a hand-lever 63 and a pair of arms 58 which engage with the upper cam surface of a block 57 upon the plate 47. Work supports and guides.-The needle throat is formed in an elongated projection 24 which serves to raise the work sufficiently above the work-plate to accommodate the thick enchainings of the stitches. In using the machine, the middle seam is sewn, then the extreme seam on either side, and afterwards those between, and for these latter seams the projection 24 serves as a guide against which a previously made seam can run. Presser-bars, lifting automatically. A ring 16 surrounding the needle is carried by a tubular part 15 slidingly mounted upon the needle-bar and pressed downwards by a spring 19.
