Patent GB-240717-A (GB)
Title: A process for the manufacture of fine and extremely fine threads of viscose silk
IPC: C08B1/08
Filed: 1925-02-25
Abstract: For spinning artificial silk more particularly the finer grades of 5-2 deniers or lower, a viscose prepared from a ripened alkali-cellulose, is employed in which in the preparation of the alkali-cellulose and in the further operations up to spinning, the action of atmospheric oxygen is prevented or minimized as by the addition of a reducing-agent such as sodium sulphite, or by conducting the operations in the presence of a reducing or inert gas such as illuminating gas, hydrogen or nitrogen, but excluding the employment of a vacuum.  The precipitating-bath employed consists of a solution of sodium sulphate containing a proportion of acid; using a viscose prepared as above, it is possible to prepare all sizes of silk with one type of precipitating-bath, nor is it necessary that the ripeness of the viscose should be adjusted within fine limits. In examples, the reducing-agent, sodium sulphite, is dissolved in the mercerizing-lye used for the initial treatment of the cellulose, and the viscose subsequently obtained is dissolved either in fresh lye or in the waste lye from the mercerizing-operation, suitably diluted; other additions of reducing-agent may be made at later stages in the process, for example, during the disintegration of the alkali-cellulose; the precipitation baths have an acidity of 15-16 per cent sulphuric acid.  By using a sulphite as the reducing-agent, the objectionable liberation of sulphuretted hydrogen during spinning, is prevented.

Title: Coke plant and method of operating same
IPC: C10B57/10
Filed: 1973-02-05
Abstract: 1426512 Drying coal feeds WAAGNERBIRO AG 5 Feb 1973 [7 Feb 1972] 5679/73 Heading C5E [Also in Division F4] Coal is periodically charged into a coke oven and the hot coke discharged from the oven is dry quenched with an inert gas stream, e.g. mainly nitrogen, the heat extracted being used to generate steam and to dry with a drying gas at least part of the coal to be charged to the oven. Some of the quenching gas may be used for drying or heat may be transferred from the quenching gas to the drying gas, e.g. after the steam generation or other heat extraction. The quenching gas when used as drying gas may be directed through the coal, or the drying gas may be directed upwardly to provide a fluidized bed of coal during drying. Part of the coal drying gas may be subsequently cleaned and desulphurized before being discharged to the atmosphere. The discharged coke may be maintained closed off from the atmosphere at least from the time it leaves the coke oven until after dryquenching to retard pollution of the atmosphere. A coke plant comprises an oven for distilling coal into coke, means for charging the oven with coal, means for discharging hot coke from the oven, a bunker for receiving the discharged hot coke, means for transporting the hot coke from the oven to the bunker, fans for circulating a quenching gas along a path part of which is formed by the interior of the bunker and a steam generator, a dryer for gas-drying coal to be charged into the oven, and conduits between the coal dryer and the quenching gas path for heating the gas used for coal drying with heat extracted from the coke. A heat exchanger may be situated along the quenching gas path for this purpose. The conduits may also communicate with the bunker for receiving part of the hot gas therefrom to provide at least part of the drying gas from the quenching gas. The conduits may be located along and form part of the path for directing quenching gas circulated by the fans through the dryer after the gas has been heated during quenching, and the steam generator may be located along the path between the bunker and dryer for cooling the quenching gas before reaching the dryer. The conduits may direct the drying gas upwardly into the coal dryer to form a fluidized bed in which the coal is dried. The transporting means may include a skip hoist including closed containers for the hot coke to prevent pollution of the atmosphere. The bunker may be located at an elevation lower than the oven and the transporting means which may be completely enclosed to prevent release of smoke to the atmosphere, includes a guide for directing the coke by gravity into the bunker. A gas-cleaning system may be located between the transporting means and the atmosphere for cleaning and desulphurizing the gas which is then discharged to the atmosphere.

Title: Improvements in or relating to fastenings for casement windows and the like
IPC: E05C17/22
Filed: 1929-02-26
Abstract: 330,234. Huskisson, A. R. Feb. 26, 1929. Stays.-In a casement stay of the kind in which a stay bar passes through a swivelling clamping post, the post comprises two spaced parts through or between which the stay bar passes and these parts are formed or provided with flanges or slidable jaws which are brought into binding engagement with an annulus formed in the holder when the stay-bar is clamped between the said spaced post parts. In Figs. 3 and 4 a stay-bar 15, pivotally connected to the window frame engages between the parts 22 of a clamping device 18 pivotally mounted on the casement. The clamping device comprises a ring 20 integral with a securing flange 21, the parts 22 which constitute the clamping post having bevelled flanges 22<a> engaging an annulus 20a of the ring 20. The lower parts of the post parts 22 are shaped to receive the wedge-shaped staybar 15, the upper and lower faces of this bar having cross-teeth 15<a> and longitudinal grooves 15b respectively. Normally, the spring 26 serves to depress the tumbler clamp 23 so that the teeth 23<a> and 15<a> are in engagement, and the pressure of the clamp against the stay-bar tends to raise the post parts 22 to grip the inclined sides 22b of the stay-bar, thus causing the flanges 22<a> to bind in the ring 20. When the part 24<a> of the cam 24 is raised the parts are released so that the stay-bar is free to slide and turn. According to a modification, a wedge is inserted between the post parts 22 below the stay-bar. Instead of providing the post parts with bevelled flanges 22a they may be provided with slidable jaws to coact with the annular 20<a>, the inner ends of these slidable members coacting with the tumbler clamp. The bar 15 and the tumbler clamp 23 may have a frictional engagement, the teeth being dispensed with. The stay-bar may also be arranged to pass through aligned holes formed with inclined walls in the post parts 22, the clamping cam 24 being then arranged at right-angles to the stay. According to a further modified construction, the clamping cam may be adapted to engage the stay bar directly.

Abstract: 233,482. Stein, J. March 12, 1924. Ships.-Relates to toys or game apparatus of the kind in which model ships or other floating bodies are moved by the action of a magnet held above the toy. According to the invention, a model ship is provided with one or more lengths of iron or steel wire or rod arranged horizontally along the ship, preferably representing an aerial B between the masts. The controlling magnet may be pivoted on or rigidly fixed to a handle. In the construction shown in Fig. 4, the magnet G is secured to a spindle J which is journaled in the handle F, and a pulley wheel K on the spindle is connected by a belt 0 to a wheel M. Thus the magnet may be revolved by the wheel M to facilitate steering the ships. For playing games, objects representing breakwaters, piers, forts, rocks, &c., may be placed in the receptacle containing the water in which the ships are floated. A race game may be played by competitors who move ships along a course between obstacles into a harbour. A war game may be played in which a player with a toy gun endeavours to prevent a ship from being moved into a harbour.
