Patent GB-300261-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to the production of puffed, popped or expanded cereal food products
IPC: A23L1/18
Filed: 1928-10-08
Abstract: 300,261. Kellogg Co., (Assignees of McKay, E. H.). Nov. 10, 1927, [Convention date]. Roasting granular materials; products obtained in special forms.-Cereal grains or other unit masses, after cooking, are subjected to an external force sufficient to modify the internal structure of the unit to facilitate the material swelling, puffing, popping, or otherwise increasing in volume, they are then dried and finally exposed under atmospheric pressure to cause the swelling or puffing. A cereal grain is cooked with water, preferably under steam pressure, with or without the addition of flavouring material. The grain is dried and the kernels separated. The pressure is then applied by passing the kernels between revolving rolls spaced to press the kernels lightly. The compressed kernels are further dried and then caused to swell by heating in a revolving cylinder, oven, cornpopper, or similar device. The units may be formed by a preliminary treatment such as cutting, slicing, pressing, comminuting, shredding, extruding, or combining into larger-aggregates. In place of rolling any other means of pressure may be applied. Two or more component materials may be combined to form the units for treatment. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) states also that seeds, nuts, fruit, vegetable or other plant material may be similarly treated and that the final heating to cause the swelling or puffing may be omitted. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as published.

Title: Improvements in the production of photographic color positives
IPC: G03C7/04
Filed: 1932-10-24
Abstract: 414,036. Colour photography. THORNTON, J. E., 8, Hill Street, Jersey, Channel Islands. Oct. 24, 1932, No. 29621. [Class 98 (ii).] A multicolour positive on a transparent or opaque support is produced by printing two component colour record mosaic images on opposite sides of a film, applying coloured colloid in complementary colours to opposite sides of the film, and treating with a bleach-hardening solution so as to form images of insoluble coloured colloid on opposite sides of the film. The resulting film may be mounted on a paper or other opaque backing. The colloid may be applied in the form of a plaster, consisting of a layer of coloured colloid on a porous paper backing, by brushing it on as a solution, or by other known methods of coating. In carrying out the process, a two, three, or four colour mosaic negative is printed through complementary colour filters on to opposite sides of a film coated on both sides with a panchromatic gelatin silver emulsion having a light obstructing dye layer as in Specification 9324/12, [Class 98 (ii)], between the emulsion layers. Alternatively both emulsions may be dyed yellow to prevent printing through. The printings may be carried out simultaneously using an optical system of mirrors or prisms and lenses and a pair of red and green filters, or successively using a rotating filter with red and green sectors. The resulting silver images are developed and fixed, and colour plasters in complementary colours applied to opposite sides. The plasters may be coloured redorange and blue-green respectively, and are soaked before application in a bath comprising a mixture of potassium bichromate, potassium ferricyanide and potassium bromide. The unhardened colloid is then washed out with warm water, and the bleached silver salts removed by hypo. The resulting image consists of dots of one colour on one side interspersed with dots of the complementary colour on the other side, and the dots maybe spread by placing the images slightly out of focus or interposing a fine screen or ground glass between light source and negative during printing. Specifications 17007/05, 16899/14, 224,569, and 224,573, [all in Class 98 (ii)], also are referred to.

Title: Improvements in or relating to figured woven fabrics
IPC: D03D23/00
Filed: 1928-10-17
Abstract: 321,307. Taylor, W. H., Ormrod, J., and Dawson, H. Oct. 17, 1928. Figured fabrics are woven with the figured side underneath from two figuring wefts A, B of different colours of, say, " red " and " gold " artificial silk. Two picks of each weft are shot alternately and the warp of either or a different colour, such as blue cotton, is controlled by a jacquard and two cumberboards operating continuously and both lifting two picks alternately as shown in F'g. 2. A separate card is used for each weft as each is in its turn used for figuring, whereby the necessary hooks are brought into action to form figure by causing one weft or the other to float under several warp threads, a pick of each weft being shot through each shed when weaving ground, whilst a pick of each weft not used for figuring is in the fabric below each figuring weft. Thus in the figured parts of the fabric, where one weft is floating under warp threads, the other weft in its turn is interweaving with the same warp threads in plain weave to form fabric beneath the figure. The " red " and " gold " cards are arranged alternately on the card chain, each card being in action for two picks. Long floating wefts may be picked over one or more intermediate warp ends. Specification 291,859 is referred to.
