Aerial machines without aerostats.-An aerial machine or glider comprises a body, stream-line shaped in plan, and semicircular in transverse section, with planes shaped like the wings of a soaring bird. A rear elevator A<2>, rudders A<3>, and skids and ground-wheels are provided. Planes, construction of.- The planes are shaped so that the air encountered passes under the planes and towards the rear portion of the body, which consequently receives a forward impulse. The chain-line E<2> indicates the variation in the thickened edge of the plane, of which the angle of positive incidence increases from the body to the section F. The angle of incidence then diminishes to the section O, after which it changes sign and becomes increasingly negative, the line E<3> representing the limit of the thickened forward edge of the wing tip. The construction of the wing is designed to give longitudinal stability. The tips are made detachable. Steering is effected by means of the rudder A<3> and elevator A<2>. The wings may also be warped for steering &c.

Abstract: 21,915. Newton, P. A., [Farbenfabriken vorm. F. Bayer & Co.]. Sept. 26. 1-Halogen-2:3-naphthisatins are obtained by treating alpha - alpha - dihalogen - # hydrocyanocarbodinaphthylimides with anhydrous aluminium chloride to form the alpha-1-halogennaphthalides of the halogennaphthisatins, which are then saponified. According to examples 1-chlor- and 1 - brom - 2:3-naphthisatins are obtained. Treatment of these bodies with halogens or halogenizing agents converts them into higher halogenated products; according to an example a dichlor - 2:3-naphthisatin is obtained by treating 1 - chlor - 2:3-naphthisatin with sulphuryl chloride in presence of chlorbenzene, and a bromchlor-2: 3-naphthisatin by treating 1-chlor-2:3-naphthisatin with bromine in nitrobenzene suspension. These mono- and dihalogennaphthisatins are converted into the alpha-chlorides by treatment with phosphorus pentachloride, or treatment of the alpha-chlorides with aniline yields the alpha-anilides. Indigoid dyes are obtained by condensing the alpha-derivatives of the above-described halogen- 2:3-naphthisatins (containing reactive groups, such as halogen, sulphur, amino, or alkoxy groups, in the alpha-position) with such components as are used for the manufacture of indigoid dyes, e.g. 4-chlor-1-naphthol, oxythionaphthene, 5:7-dibromindoxyl, oxyanthranol, alpha-anthrol, or carbazole, or by condensing the halogennaphthisatins themselves with indoxyl, oxythionaphthene, or similar bodies containing the -CH2CO-grouping. Products are specified from the following pairs of components: -dichlor-2:3-naphthisatin-alpha-chloride and 4-chlor-1- naphthol, oxythionaphthene, 5 :7-dibromindoxyl, 4-methoxy-1-anthrol, or carbazole; bromchlor- 2:3-naphthisatin-alpha-chloride and alpha-anthrol, 4- chlor - 1-naphthol, or carbazole; dichlor-2:3- naphthisatin-alpha-anilide and alpha-anthrol or alpha-oxyanthranol; dichlor-2:3-naphthisatin and indoxyl, 5:7-dichlorindoxyl, or oxythionaphthene. The products dye cotton various shades of blue, green, red, or violet from a vat. alpha-alpha-Dichlor-#-hydrocyanocarbodinaphthylimide is obtained by chlorinating #-hydrocyanocarbodinaphthylimide. alpha-alpha-Dibrom-#-hydrocyanocarbodinaphthylimide is obtained by treating 1-brom-2-naphthylamine with carbon disulphide and hydrogen peroxide to give 1:1<1>-dibrom-2:2<1>-dinaphthylthiourea, and treating this body with lead carbonate and potassium cyanide.

Variable-speed friction gearing.-The driving and driven shafts, 1, 2, Fig. 1, are in alinement, and a friction disk 8 fixed on the driving-shaft engages friction wheels 23, 23a fixed on cross-shafts 22, 22<a> mounted in stationary bearings. Two such cross-shafts are shown, but any desired member may be employed, radiating from a common centre. Each crossshaft carries a sliding friction wheel 24 engaging a disk 25 on the driven shaft 2, and the various wheels 24 are traversed simultaneously across the disk 25 to vary the speed. To provide for reversing, the disk 25 is loose on the driven shaft and engages a pair of friction wheels 31 mounted on a frame 30 which can revolve freely on the shaft 2, the wheels 31 also engaging a disk 33 connected to the shaft 2 by a clutch 34. The frame 30 is ordinarily held stationary by a spring catch 39, in which case the shaft 2 is driven in the same direction as the shaft 1. To reverse the drive, the catch 39 is pulled out of engagement, and the disk 25 locked to the shaft 2 by a clutch 40, the wheels 31 running idle. Clutch members 41, 42 are provided to give a solid drive when desired, the disk 33 being withdrawn from the wheels 31 at the same time. If no reverse drive is desired, the parts 31, 33 are omitted. A modified arrangement giving a reverse drive at one speed is shown in Fig. 4. A shaft 47 supported on a rocking arm carries friction wheels 45, 46, adapted to engage respectively with an annular web 43 formed on the driving disk 8, and the edge of the driven disk 25. When the wheels 45, 46 are brought into action, the axial spring pressure (produced by any suitable means) on the disks 8, 25 is relieved.

Abstract: 1829. Isherwood, L. A., and Isherwood, L. Jan. 23. Guards, controlling.- Relates to means for preventing the door of a carding - engine from being opened while the machine is in motion and for ensuring that the door is closed before the machine is started. A rod c, attached to the lever d carrying the door, is provided on one side with a tooth c<1>, and on the other side with a notch c<2> adapted to engage a projection f on the frame of the machine. A toothed wheel, made in two parts a, a<1> resiliently connected, is secured on the cylinderdriving shaft A. While the machine is in motion, the wheel a, a<1>, by engaging the tooth c<1>, prevents the rod c from being lifted and pushed longitudinally to open the door; but this may be done when the machine is at rest. The driving-gear shown in Fig. 2 is of the kind described in Specification 4529/13, [Class 120(i), Spinning, Preparation &c. for], wherein a pivoted lever g serves to bring about the clutching and declutching. A projection g<2> on the lever comes against the rod c when the door is open and prevents the operation of the lever to start the machine. A pivoted catch m acts as a stop for preventing the lever g from being moved into position for reverse drive. When it is desired to reverse for grinding, the catch m is liberated by the operative. Where fast and loose pulleys are employed, as shown in Fig. 6, a quadrant r attached to the door lever is arranged to engage a plate q' on the belt-operating lever q and thereby prevent the opening of the door while the machine is in motion. When the machine is stopped, the plate q<7> is clear of the quadrant r, and when the door is open, the quadrant acts as a stop to prevent the operation of the lever q. In order to allow the belt to be moved on to the fast pulley for the grinding operation, one or both of the belt-fork members q<3>, Fig. 7, are mounted on the bar q<8> so that they may be turned down out of the plane of the belt. Stops q<11> are provided to limit the movement of the members q<3>. The members may return to their normal positions by gravity, and springs may be employed to retain them in the normal position. In a modification, a guide-bar for the forks is provided, and stop-pieces on the fork members engage this guide-bar. An arm s, Fig. 6, may be mounted on the rod c so that, when the rod is operated to open the door, the arm comes into the path of the belt and prevents it from being moved on to the fast pulley. The arm may be removed for grinding, or so placed that it does not interfere with the crossed belt employed in grinding. In a modification, an arm may be mounted on the lever q to act as a stop for a fork member which serves to prevent the belt from being moved on to the fast pulley for forward drive.
