Abstract: 9077. Wright, E. April 17. Breaking and scutching apparatus. - In a machine of the type described in Specification 9598/09, a slitting or shredding device or comb pins, scraper, &c. is arranged at the feed side of the drum to act upon the end of the leaves or stems before they pass to the drum. The material is passed from the feed table 7 through rollers 3 to the drum 1 and is delivered on to a band 20. The comb 6 is mounted to slide in guides 9 and to co-operate with holes in a plate 13 on the feed table. The comb is lowered by levers 10 or a treadle 11 against the action of weights 11<a> or springs, or it may be operated automatically by cams acting upon spring - controlled arms on the comb carrier cross-bar 5<a>. The comb as it rises passes through a cleaning-plate 14, which slides on bolts carried by the comb, and is finally engaged by nuts on said bolts and raised above the feed plate to allow fresh fibre to be placed thereon.

Abstract: 22,945. Dieter, W. Nov. 23. Check lift valves; valves closing with rush of fluid.-Valves are described for the water and fuel reservoirs of motive fluid generators used on torpedoes, which valves allow any leakage of air into the reservoirs to escape but are automatically closed by the rush of air when the full air-pressure is turned on to feed the water and the fuel to the generator; these valves may also be made to prevent the entrance into the reservoirs of water from outside them. The valves are disposed in the plugs closing the filling-apertures of the reservoirs, which apertures are conveniently in line with each other and provided with the usual filling-tube 4 and airescape branch 5. The valve shown in Fig. 2 comprises a plug G between two seats, vent holes v, and a weak spring x.

Title: Improved Manufacture of Ammonia.
Inventor: CLASSEN ALEXANDER
IPC: C01C1/04
Filed: 1915-10-04
Abstract: 14,055. Classen, A. Oct. 4. Ammonia is obtained by treating a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen with dark and spark electric discharges and with catalysts supported on carriers of an acid character, the term acid character meaning, in the case of silicates, a content of not less than 93 per cent of silica. Suitable catalysts are mentioned. The reaction is preferably effected at 50-90‹ C., but the temperature should not be below 250 C. The apparatus employed consists, for instance, of a contact chamber formed of two electrodes, an outer non-conducting electrode, for instance of glass or porcelain, surrounding an inner conducting- electrode, for instance cf brass or copper. The outer electrode is surrounded by a cooling- liquid (water), into which the negative current supply is immersed. Dark discharges are obtained if the distance between the electrodes is small, and spark discharges if the distance is great; but, by regulating the distance, both may be obtained at once.
