Title: Improved process for extracting glue from bones and the like
IPC: C09H3/00
Filed: 1931-03-24
Abstract: 365,876. Glue. AKT.-GES. FUR 'CHEMISCHE PRODUKTE VORM. H. SCHEIDEMANDEL, 35, Dorotheenstrasse, Berlin. March 24, 1931, No. 9010. Convention date, April 8, 1930. [Class 121.] In a process for extracting glue from material such as crushed bones in a boiler battery by means of alternate steam pressure treatment and lixiviation, all the boilers in operation are simultaneously emptied of liquid and then all placed under steam pressure. Preferably the liquid content of each boiler is held during the steam pressure periods in a separate receptacle for return to its relative boiler at the end of each steam treatment. During each lixiviation period the lixiviating liquid is passed in a continuous current through the boilers, preferably by forcing water into the boiler containing the most completely de-glued bones, so that a current is set up in the direction of the least completely de-glued boiler, thus forcing the glue liquor towards the outlet. Boilers a<1>.. a<5> are filled with lixiviating liquid while boiler a<6> is being emptied or refilled. The liquid contents of each boiler a<1> .. a<5> are forced separately by steam or compressed air supplied by a conduit g through conduits m into receptacles b<1> .. b<5>. Steam under pressure is then supplied to the boilers by the conduit g and is subsequently exhausted through a conduit i. The lixiviating liquors in receptacles b<1> .. b<5> are then readmitted to the boilers through conduits n and water from a tank c is pumped by a pump d through a preheater e and conduit h into the boiler a<1> and thence passes through the battery, pushing before it the glue liquor the temperature of which is adjusted in passing through heaters f<2> .. f<5>, the liquor being finally run off from a conduit k.

Abstract: 1,166,244. Yarn contact heater. ERNEST SCRAGG & SONS Ltd. 20 Feb., 1967 [1 March, 1966], No. 9040/66. Heading B5B. [Also in Division D1] A yarn heater comprises a chamber 12 bounded on one side by a heat conductive member 14 against the outer surface of which, 14a, a yarn runs in contact and over the inner surface of which a heated fluid 13 circulates parallel to the direction of yarn travel. The fluid is heated by an electric resistance element (17, 17<SP>1</SP>) positioned at one end of the chamber or extending the length of the chamber parallel to the yarn path. Temperature sensitive means 22 are provided in the chamber to control the energy supplied to the element. The fluid, which may be oil, is circulated by convection, optionally aided by a fan, and a baffle may guide the circulating fluid. The yarns run in grooves or channels (14a, 15) formed in the heat conductive member. The heater may be used in a falsetwist crimping machine and may be arranged so that the yarn path through the heater is vertical, or is inclined to the vertical to reduce the height of the yarn heater needed.

Abstract: 1,073,472. Rivets; bolt hole bushes. R. PROCTOR. June 3, 1965 [March 4, 1964], No. 9269/64. Heading F2H. A nut 13 having a chamfered end 14 is housed in a sleeve 9, having a flange 10 and a plurality of spaced slots 12. As the assembly is inserted in a hole 16 in a work-piece 15, the slots 12 allow the tapered parts to yield and advance in the hole 16 until flange 10 abuts the workpiece. A bolt can then be used to secure a second workpiece against the flange 10. As the bolt is screwed into the assembly, the nut travels along the bolt and deforms the sleeve, forming a ridge abutting the underside of the workpiece and thus preventing the withdrawal of the sleeve. The sleeve may be of plastics material or sheet metal.
