Title: Improvements in Fishing Winches.
Inventor: FARLOW CHARLES FITZROY
IPC: A01K89/0155
Filed: 1910-06-29
Granted: 1911-04-13
Abstract: 15,670. Farlow, G. F. June 29. Reels and winches, rod.-A braking-device for a fishing-winch, in which the drag exerted is proportional to the energy of rotation, consists of a fan 6 adapted to rotate with the winch. As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the fan, of which the blades are parallel to the reel axle 3, is detachably attached to the axle 3 and rotates in a chamber 7, to which air has access through holes 8 in a cover 9. The supply of air may be regulated by mounting, over the cover 9, a second perforated cover rotatable relatively to it. The fan may be so mounted that the inclination of its blades is adjustable; or the blades 6 may, as shown in Fig. 5, be so attached to arms 11 that, as the speed increases, they move outwards against the action of springs 12. The fan may also be attached to, or form part of, one of the side cheeks of the bobbins. For large winches, the fan may be secured to the interior of the bobbin barrel, or, as shown in Fig. 9, a number of fans 6 driven through gearing from the axle 3 may be employed.

Title: Manufacture of New Ortho-aminoazo-dyestuffs.
Inventor: BLOXAM ARTHUR GEORGE
Filed: 1910-08-30
Granted: 1911-08-24
Abstract: 20,217. Bloxam, A. G., [Akt.-Ges. f³r Anilin-Fabrikation]. Aug. 30. Samples furnished. o-Aminoazo dyes are obtained by combining diazo or tetrazo compounds in acid solution with m - aminophenylethers of the general formula where X=an alkyl or substituted alkyl group, and Y = an alkyl, oxyalkyl, acidylamino, halogen, sulphonic, carboxylic, &c. group. The following combinations are described in examples:-(1) a monoazo dye dyeing wool orange shades from sulphanilic acid and 2-p-toluenesulphamino-5-amino-1-methoxybenzene; (2) a monoazo dye dyeing wool olive tints in presence of sodium bichromate and ammonium sulphate from picramic acid and 5-amino-2-methylphenyl- 1-glycollic acid; (3) a monoazo dye dyeing wool violet-red from 1-amino-8-naphthol-3:6-disulphonic acid and 5-amino-2-chlor-1-methoxybenzene; (4) a disazo dye from benzidine, 5-amino- 2-methyl-1-methoxybenzene, and 2-naphthol-3:6- disulphonic acid; (5) a disazo dye dyeing cotton red from 4:4<1>-diaminostilbene-2:2<1>-disulphonic acid and 5-amino-2-methyl-1-methoxybenzene; the last two products can be diazotized on the fibre and developed with #-naphthol. Diazo compounds from monamines of the benzene and naphthalene series, from diamines of the benzidine and diaminostilbene series, and from mono- and di-amines of the diarylamine, diarylether, and arylazoaryl series may be used. When tetrazo bodies are used, mixed disazo dyes from two different m-aminophenolethers, or one of these bodies and one molecular proportion of another component may be obtained. o-Sulpho-m-aminophenylethers are produced from the corresponding bases by known methods of preparing amino snlphonic acids, such as by heating the acid sulphates. Carboxylic acids.-o-Carboxyl-m-aminophenyl ethers are prepared by oxidizing the corresponding nitroacidylaminotoluene to the carboxylic acid, removing the acidyl group, substituting the hydroxyl group for the amino group ,by the diazo-reaction, etherifying the product, and finally reducing the nitro group. 2-p-Toluenesulphamino-5-amino-1-methoxybenzene is produced by treating p-toluene sulphochloride with 2-anisidine, and then nitrating and subsequently reducing the p-toluenesulphaminomethoxybenzene thus produced. 5-Amino-2-methylphenylglycollic acid is produced by converting 4-nitro-2-aminotoluene into 4-nitrocresol by the diazo-reaction, treating this compound with chloracetic acid, and finally reducing the nitro compound.

Abstract: 774. Siemens Bros. & Co., [Siemens & Halske Akt.-Ges.]. Jan. 11. Electric control.-Relates to the control of the correct setting of railway point tongues and consists in the provision of slides connected to the tongues which are engaged by control levers actuated by the operating mechanism. The point tongues W<1>, W<2> operated from an electric or other motor M through a rack B carry slide bars Z', Z<2> so shaped as to allow the control levers a<1>, a<2> to close the supervisory circuit when the tongues are home in either position. The motor-operated shaft O carries, rigid with the spur-wheel A<1>, a cam A<2> against which one of the arms of each of the levers bears. The levers a<1>, a<2> have each three arms, and are connected by a spring S. One arm S<1> or S<2> engages with the cam-surface A<2>, and a second arm S<11> or S<21> is provided with a catch-piece S<13> or S<23> for engagement with recesses in the slides Z', Z<2>. When the points are brought home in either position, or when either point fails, the catch-piece engages with the faces of the slides and limits the motion of the levers. The third arms of the levers carry insulated contact-pieces S<12>, S<22> which complete the motor and supervisory signal circuits when the levers complete their movements. Circuit - changing magnets E, V, with interlocking armatures may be employed to economize the current. The armature of magnet E may be provided with a detent R to engage in slots in the locking-bars D', D<2> when locking-bars are employed, any error in the position of the locking-bars preventing the fall of the detent, so that the circuit-changing armatures cannot move to their required positions. The Figure shows the double switch H<1>, H<2> for operating the points and the signal circuits, a second reversing-switch K in circuit with the signal battery T being also employed.

Abstract: 3507. Hill, S. B., Hill, C. E., and Hill, W. R. Feb. 12. Hydraulic rams. - Relates to hydraulic rams modified to act as air-compressors, and especially to means for regulating the intake of air. Water enters through a fitting 2 and leaves by a pipe 4, entraining air through a non-return valve 55. When the waste valve shuts, the air is forced through lift valves 14 into a chamber 82. Water accumulating in the chamber 82 is drained off by a float-operated valve 74. Air reaches the valve 55 by a pipe 53, Fig. 6, the inlet to which may be regulated by hand by means of a screwed and slotted plug 58, or regulated automatically by means of the arrangement shown in Fig. 7. This consists of a throttle valve connected to the rod 65 of a piston 66 exposed to the pressure in the chamber 82. The piston 66 presses against a spring 70, the tension of which can be regulated by a nut 69. The waste valve consists of two annular valves 19, 20 and a disk-valve 24, arranged as shown and sliding on a rod 36. The lift of the valve is regulated by an adjustable arm 40, and the valve is raised by a compound leaf spring 46 engaging a spool 39 adjustable with respect to the valve. The spring 46 can be adjusted by means of a screw 51, or by tools passed through a hole therein.

Abstract: 7344. Adams, A. H., Normanville, E. de, and Adams Manufacturing Co. March 26. Cylinders, cooling.-To prevent the overheating of cylinders which are cooled by a circulating liquid, air or gas is supplied to some part of the circulating system, either in direct contact with the liquid or through a coil immersed in the liquid, the supply of air being controlled by a valve governed by the temperature of the engine or of the cooling - liquid. The pressure of the air may be just above atmospheric or much higher; in the latter case, the cooling due to expansion is available. Fig. 1 shows the application to the engine of a motor-vehicle in which air supplied by the pump A to the reservoir C and controlled by the valve E is admitted to the base of the radiator H and passes through the cooling- water, being afterwards conveyed to the watertrap K, which prevents the escape of moisture with the air. The valve P, Fig. 2, is controlled by a closed vessel M containing expansible fluid. When the temperature of the water in the water-space W rises, the pressure inside the vessel M acts upon the diaphragm N, and the valve P is opened.
