Patent GB-806552-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in maximum demand indicators
IPC: G01R11/60
Filed: 1956-07-12
Abstract: 806,552. Maximum demand indicators; current measurement. FOSTER TRANSFORMERS Ltd., and JENNINGS, R. E. July 11, 1957 [July 12, 1956], No. 21574/56. Class 37. A maximum demand current indicator comprises a current transformer which feeds a heating element arranged to actuate a maximum temperature registering device such as a thermometer having a peak reading index. A current in the primary conductor 5, Fig. 1, causes a current to flow in the secondary winding 4 which heats the element 6. The heat from the element 6 affects the thermometer 7 and the maximum temperature is recorded by the index 8, this temperature can be calibrated in terms of the primary current. Some heat insulation is interposed between the element 6 and the thermometer 7 so that the maximum demand reading is averaged over a period of from 5 to 30 mins. Two further heating elements 9, 11 are connected in series with the element 6, the element 9 being arranged close to the element 6 and the element 11 being arranged close to the bimetallic strip forming part of the thermallysensitive switch 10 which is heat insulated from the elements 6, 9. The heat supplied by the elements 9 sets a constant ambient temperature (such as 30‹ C.) for the assembly 6, 7 and thus ensures that the readings are unaffected by external temperature variations. The heat supplied by the element 9 is governed by the combination 10, 11 which is affected by the external temperature. The casing containing the apparatus, Fig. 2, is in two parts 12, 13, each housing a half of a magnetic core and a half of the secondary winding. The parts are hinged at 14 and each has a guide 18 to facilitate entry of a conductor into the tunnel 15 after which the halves of the casing are brought together by the action of the member 17 co-operating with the screwed rod 16. The rod 16 is of insulating material and of such a length as to render the operation safe. The thermometer and elements are housed in a casing extension and may be made weatherproof by embedding in a suitable resin, they may also be sited remotely.

Title: Improvements in and relating to the treatment of jute
IPC: D06M13/188
Filed: 1946-07-26
Abstract: Jute fibres or fabrics are bleached and then subjected to an acetylation treatment so as to obtain fibrous textile materials which are substantially white or light fawn in colour and are not subject to change in colour on exposure to light.  In an example, air-dried jute is immersed in a cold hypochlorite solution prepared from sodium hypochlorite and containing 0.4 per cent available chlorine.  The solution is neutralized with sodium hydroxide and a small proportion of sodium carbonate is added. The jute is treated with this solution for 20 minutes.  It is then washed, and immersed in a solution of hydrogen peroxide to which a small proportion of sodium carbonate and sodium silicate has been added.  The temperature is raised to 70 DEG C. and maintained at this value for one hour.  The jute is removed and washed and then the peroxide treatment is repeated twice.  The air-dried, bleached jute is heated under reflux for 1.5 hours with a mixture of acetic anhydride, xylene or chlorobenzene, and sulphanilic acid or p-toluene sulphonic acid.  The material is then removed and washed.

Patent GB-962479-A (GB)
Title: Stably dispersoid metal composites and production thereof
IPC: C22C1/10
Filed: 1961-06-22
Abstract: A sintered composite metal comprising a sub micron phase such as an oxide or a nitride dispersed through a metal matrix is formed from a relatively inactive metal containing a reactant such as oxygen or nitrogen and an active metal which combines with the reactant to form the dispersed phase either by (a) mixing both powdered components together and hot working or (b) separately hot working the powdered components and then combining them by further hot working, the hot working being effected below the melting temperature of the constituents.  The inactive matrix metal, containing 1-10% of oxygen or nitrogen as the oxide, nitride or partly in solid solution, may be rimming steel, Cu, Ti, Nb or W and the active metal which reacts with the oxygen or nitrogen to form the dispersed phase may be Al, Ca, Mg, Th or Zr.  In the preferred method the components are mixed together in powdered form, pressed into a compact, rolled into strip which is then cut into sheets and stacked and then hot rolled with intermediate annealing.  Alternatively the inactive matrix metal and reactant may be coated with an alloy of the active metal and another metal which either volatilizes on heating or alloys with the matrix metal. Many examples are given of the preparation of a sintered body with a matrix of Ti or Nb and a dispersed oxide phase of Ca, Mg, Zr or Th in which the oxygen containing Ti particles are coated with one of the following alloys:  Sn/Ca, Sn/Mg, Hg/Mg, Hg/Th, Hg/Ca or Zn/Zr. In the case of the Zn and Sn alloys the Zn and Sn alloy with the matrix metal and in the case of the Hg alloys the Hg volatilizes.  A sintered body containing dispersed Al2O3 in a Cu matrix is also prepared by mixing Cu containing oxygen with Al.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the treatment of alkaline cyanide solutions containing dissolved precious metals
IPC: C22B11/08
Filed: 1935-08-10
Abstract: In a process for treating alkaline cyanide solution containing dissolved precious metals to effect precipitation of the same, an alkaline or alkaline earth bisulphite is treated with metallic zinc to form an alkaline or alkaline earth hydrosulphite which is an active reducing agent, the latter being introduced into the cyanide solution to deoxidize the latter and the zinc remaining from the first reaction acting as a precipitant.  The solution is introduced into the cyanide solution which then flows through a precipitating filter and the filtrate is then oxidized to destroy any remaining reducing agent so that it can be used again.  The zinc in the form of zinc dust may be mixed with the bisulphite to form an emulsion which is then added to the cyanide solution, and a lead salt which reacts with the bisulphite to form lead sulphite, may also be added to the emulsion.  When zinc shavings are used instead of zinc dust, the addition of the lead salt is not required.  Specifications 442,315 and 460,969 are referred to.
