Title: Improved process for ageing wheaten flour to improve its baking qualities
IPC: A21D6/00
Filed: 1920-03-30
Abstract: 164,557. Forget-Me-Not, Ltd., (formerly Forget-Me-Not Flours, Ltd.), and Hutchinson, R. March 30, 1920. Screw, helical blade, and rotating conveyers; gravity, materials descending by.-The gluten strength of wheat flour is improved by subjecting the grain, flour, or dough to heat and controlling the treatment by varying the pressure maintained in the chambers in which the material is treated. The treatment may consist in heating the wheat &c. under agitation in a cylinder 3, Fig. 1, to such a temperature that coagulation of the gluten takes place at atmospheric or slightly reduced pressure maintained in the cylinder by the pump 16. When the process is sufficiently advanced the coagulation is checked by passing the material into cylinder 7 wherein a high vacuum is maintained and which is less highly heated or is cooled. The cylinder 7 may be dispensed with and the material discharged into a cooling-device at atmospheric pressure. A continuous action is provided if the valves 2, 6 are operated automatically from the thermometer 20. For intermittent operation a single chamber may be employed such as a vertical cylinder 24, Fig. 2, having a jacket 26 and internal tubes 27 supplied with a heating fluid or heated electrically. No agitation is necessary, the coagulation of the gluten being suspended until the necessary uniform temperature has been attained, by maintaining a sufficiently high vacuum by means of a pump 34. The pressure is then increased for the period necessary for coagulation and is then again reduced during cooling. The material may however be discharged from the vacuum cylinder into a cooling device at atmospheric pressure. A series of chambers may be employed to permit of continuous working of this type of apparatus. The water lost during treatment may be restored by damping the treated grain, or the material may be damped previously to an equivalent extent. The treatment may be employed in conjunction with treatment with phosphates, pelsulphates, ammonium salts, common salt, or malt extract which may be introduced with the added water. The dehydrated or the finished flour may be treated with ozone, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen peroxide, chlorine, or nitrosyl chloride.

Title: Improvements relating to the extraction of nickel, cobalt and iron from laterite ore
IPC: C22B23/06
Filed: 1959-03-19
Abstract: Nickel, cobalt and iron values are extracted from latentic nickel ores containing less than 10% magnesia by heating the ore in a selectively reducing atmosphere to convert to the metal substantially all of the nickel and cobalt, and a minor amount of the iron of the ore, cooling in a non oxidising atmosphere, treating with carbon monoxide, preferably at 38-93 DEG C., to volatilize most of the nickel and a small amount of the iron as the carbonyls, treating the residue with dry chlorine gas, preferably at 38-93 DEG C., to convert the remaining nickel and cobalt into water-soluble form, heating the chloridised product in an oxidising gas containing free oxygen, for example air, which may be either enriched in or depleted of oxygen, preferably at 93-260 DEG C., to decompose any iron chlorides formed, and then leaching with water to remove the nickel and cobalt chlorides. The reducing stage is preferably carried out at 500-815 DEG C. in an atmosphere containing carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in a ratio of not more than 3:2 or less than 1:3 by volume, and converting between 1 and 15% of the iron content to the metal, so that the ratio of iron to nickel volatilized as carbonyl is between 1:7 and 2:1.  The carbon monoxide and dioxide may be at least partly replaced by hydrogen and water vapour.  The carbonyl formation step is facilitated by the addition of sulphur-containing substances, for example, sulphur, pyrite, or hydrogen sulphide.  The cobalt and nickel containing leach solution may be treated to recover the metal values for example by precipitating them as sulphides by the addition of sodium or hydrogen sulphide.  Specification 855,544 is referred to.

Title: Improvements in automatic devices for maintaining vehicles at a uniform height abovethe ground, no matter what the load or the flexibility of the springing
IPC: B60G21/073
Filed: 1954-04-02
Abstract: 754,386. Spring suspensions; preventing lateral canting; adjusting body height. SOC. ANON. A. CITROEN. April 2, 1954 [Nov. 30, 1953], No. 9700/54. Class 108 (2). Relates to an automatic device for maintaining a vehicle chassis frame at a uniform height from the ground irrespective of the vehicle loading and the flexibility of the springing. According to the invention, the piston of a hydro-pneumatic device is articulated to each wheel support, the two devices associated with each wheel set communicating with one another by means of a conduit and through a distributer, with a pressure accumulator, the wheel supports being connected to one another by means of an antirolling torque bar at approximately the middle of which is fixed a lever controlling the operation of the distributer to act on the hydro-pneumatic devices. As shown, each of a pair of road wheels 24 is carried by a suspension arm 1 controlled by a hydro-pneumatic spring device 3, 4, secured to the vehicle chassis frame. The arms 1 pivot about the axis of an anti-roll torsion bar 2 to which the arms are rigidly connected. Hydraulic liquid is supplied to or exhausted from both suspension devices 3, 4, under the a slide valve distributer D in dependence upon equally directed movements of the road wheels. The distributer comprises a slide valve 10 the movement of which is controlled by a lever 18 resiliently connected to the bar 2, to admit or exhaust pressure liquid from both suspension devices. Movement of the valve 10 is damped by flow of liquid through an opening 15 interconnecting a pair of chambers 13, 14. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown), an auxiliary torsion bar is arranged parallel to the bar 2 and the lever 18 is secured at one end to the auxiliary bar and partly surrounds the bar 2 as in the previous arrangement.

Filed: 1917-07-05
Abstract: 128,265. Vickers, Ltd., and Burns, W. A. July 5, 1917. Sights. - Relates to sights for naval and coastdefence guns, of the kind having rotary-crank speed correction mechanism, such as that described in Specification 985/09. According to the invention, the axis of the crank can be inclined at a predetermined angle to the line of sight for the purpose of applying a range correction for speed of gun platform or target, or both, in addition to any lateral deflexion necessary. In the construction shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the secondary sight-bar 7, 8, which is telescopic, is mounted at the rear on an extension 9 of the sight-bar proper 1, and at the front on the deflexion nut 11 on the crank 4. The crank pivot 5 is mounted in a block provided with an arc 6, the centre of which is at Z in the pivot axis a-a and also in the line A, B when the sight is in its zero position shown in Fig. 1. When the pivot 5 is tilted to a predetermined angle n. Fig. 2, to the line B Z, the front A is raised, thus decreasing the tangent angle of elevation to compensate for the tendency to shoot " over " when firing ahead or at an approaching target. Mechanism may be provided whereby the axis 5 is tilted automatically as the sight-bar 1 is elevated. Two cranks may be superimposed, as in the modification shown in Fig. 3, in which the upper crank 3, 4 is mounted in a casing 5 which, with a spindle 8, forms the lower crank.

Title: Tracking accuracy control for analysers
IPC: G01J3/42
Filed: 1961-03-17
Abstract: 942,874. Photo-electric spectrometers. BECKMAN INSTRUMENTS Inc. March 17,1961 [March 21,1960], No. 9766/61. Heading G1A. The invention relates to double beam spectrometers of the type in which light is alternately passed through the substance to be investigated and through an adjustable attenuator. The two beams are recombined and directed through a variable monochromator to a thermocouple or like detector whose output is fed back to adjust the attenuator. In such a spectrometer it is possible to use an integrator to smooth the signal controlling the attenuator in order to eliminate the spurious high-frequency noise signals. This arrangement, however, results in an error in instantaneous reading which becomes more serious the greater the rate of variation of the detector signal. According to the invention this error is minimized by either reducing the time constant of the integrating circuit or reducing the rate of change of frequency in the monochromator (or both) when large changes in the detector output occur. As shown rotating frames 14,15 containing half mirrors direct radiation alternately through cell 22 containing the test example and through comb attenuator 23. The recombined beam passes through monochromator 12, swept through a range of frequencies by motor 29, and on to thermocouple 13. The output of the couple is amplified and fed demodulator 34 and control circuit 40. The demodulator output is fed to filter-type integrator 35 whose output controls attenuator 23 in a manner reducing the alternating signal from the thermocouple. The control circuit, as shown in more detail in Fig. 2, includes an amplifier tuned to the switching frequency, and a rectifier and filter stage driving a lamp 45. The intensity of the light from the lamp is sensed by photo-diode 46 and serves, according to the position of switch 42, to reduce the time constant of integrating circuit 35 or to reduce the speed of motor 29. In another arrangement (Fig. 3, not shown) two photo-diodes view lamp 45, one controlling the integrator and the other the motor speed. It may be arranged that one of these controls only becomes effective when the range of adjustment of the other is exhausted.
