Abstract: 619,550. Controlling change-speed gearing. FORD MOTOR CO., Ltd. Oct. 17, 1946, No. 30920. Convention date, Oct. 19, 1945. [Class 80 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXVII] A column shifter for a motor vehicle changespeed gear comprises a tube 24, Fig. 3, nested about the fixed steering column 21 and reciprocated and rotated relatively thereto by an operating lever 25 pivoted to a bracket on the upper end of the tube and engaging the column, the lower end of the tube having clutch means to engage and operate selectively a pair of axially aligned arms 27, 28 rotatably mounted on the column. As shown, the arms 27, 28 are linked to the shift levers 32, 33 of the gear, and the steering column is supported from the vehicle instrument panel 14 by a bracket 23 passing through an opening 68, Fig. 4, in the tube 24 and having a skirt 75 covering the opening 68 in all positions of the tube. A bolt 76 securing the bracket 28 to the column passes through a hole 74 in the bracket slotted to assist initial registration, and bears on a cylindrical reinforcing liner 77 inside the column. Diametrically opposed pins 79 in the thickened lower end of the tube 24 engage oppositely disposed overlapping T-slots 86, 87, Fig. 5, in sleeves 81, 82 bearing the arms 27, 38. The sleeves are axially located by annular depressions 83 in the column, the sleeve 81 being spun into the lower depression, and both sleeves 81, 82 being retained by a snap ring sprung into the upper depression. Instead of being thickened, the lower end of the tube 24 may be flared outwardly to enclose and retain a liner through which the pins, which have heads located between the liner and tube, project inwardly. Reciprocation of the tube 24 causes the pins 79 to engage one or other axial leg of the overlapping T-slots, so that on rotation of the tube the corresponding arm 27 or 28 is operated, the other arm remaining unaffected due to the free movement of the pins in the heads of the corresponding T-slots. The lever 25, Figs. 1 and 2, is pivoted in a bracket 54 integral with the tube 24 and engages a circumferential slot 35 in the fixed steering head 34 of the column 21. A boss 58 on the lever engages the vertical sides of the bracket to transmit rotary movement thereto without backlash, a resilient sleeve 59 cushioning vertical rotation of the lever being also provided. A spring 62 normally urges the tube 24 into its lower position as shown. The upper end of the tube 24 is concealed at all times, working in an annular recess 36 in the head 34 on a fabric bushing 64. A reinforcing liner 66, recessed to take a direction indicator switch cable 67, supports the upper end of the column 21. A metal-eased fabric bushing 70, Fig. 4, which may bear on the column 21 directly as shown or through a detachable raised metal outer liner, spaces the tube 24 and column 21 centrally.

Title: Chlorination of alkyl and aralkyl pyridines
Inventor: CLARK NICHOLAS REX
IPC: C07D215/12
Filed: 1964-08-05
Abstract: Chlorinated alkyl and aralkyl pyridines, in which the chlorine atoms are located on the aliphatic carbon atoms in the side chain, are prepared by reacting alkyl or aralkyl pyridines in the vapour phase at an elevated temperature with gaseous chlorine in the presence of an inert diluent, the contact time of reactants and products at the elevated temperature not exceeding 60 seconds. Specified diluents are steam, carbon tetrachloride and nitrogen. The reaction may be effected in an empty reactor or a reactor packed with an inert material, e.g. porcelain, coke, alumina or silicon carbide.  It is preferred to use at least 0.1 mol. diluent per mol. pyridine compound and 0.1-3.0 mol. chlorine per alkyl or aralkyl substituent in the pyridine.  The degree of chlorination of the product is dependant upon the reaction time and temperature and proportion of products. The initial product is usually that in which the a -carbon of the side chain is chlorinated.  Reaction times and temperatures are generally within the ranges 1-12 seconds and 140 DEG -500 DEG  C. Examples describe the chlorination of 2 - picoline, 3 - picoline, 2 - ethylpyridine, 2,6-lutidine, 2 - isopropylpyridine, 4 - picoline, 4-benzylpyridine, 5 - ethyl - 2 - methylpyridine and 4-ethylpyridine.
