Patent EE-200000191-A (EE)
Inventor: LUNDBAECK STIG
IPC: E02B15/10
Filed: 1998-10-28
Abstract: Method and apparatus for cleaning an open surface of a body liquid, especially for recovering oil spills or other floating pollutants. A surface portion of the water carrying pollutants is caused to flow across a skimming weir (12, K) forming an inlet to a collecting vessel (11) and to proceed downwardly within the collecting vessel. At least the main portion of the downwardly flowing polluted water is then diverted laterally outwardly into a separation zone (B) in which the pollutants are allowed to separate from the water and collect on a confined surface of the water. The separation zone (B) may be integrated in the collecting vessel (11) and provided around a central collection compartment (A) provided with an annular skimming weir (12, K). Alternatively, the skimming zone may be provided in a separate vessel connected with the collection vessel through a conduit.

Abstract: 4269. Lake, H. H., [Moore, H. K., Allen, E. A., Ridlon, G. W., and Quincy, J.]. March 6. Chlorine, obtaining electrolytically. The cells are formed with end walls, having openings a<3> for admitting a solution of sodium or potassium chloride, and outlet openings j having removable plugs j<1>. The sides are formed of a porous diaphragm, such as asbestos paper, outside which is a thick layer of wire sponge or steel wool c, forming the cathode, and held in position by bands as. The cathode bends round beneath the bottom plate a<2>, and rests upon and makes contact with an iron tray d, to which the negative wire is attached, and which contains a trough for collecting and leading away the formed caustic alkali. Two side bars a', the end walls a, and strips a<4>, a<5> form a liquid seal a<6> filled with tar &c., into which dips the flange of a sheet-lead plate f resting upon the lead cover e<1> of the cell. The compound cover carries a glass chlorine-collecting dome g connected to a delivery tube. It also has a mercury cup terminal i for the positive wire, and a charging- funnel h connected with a curved pipe h<1> for admitting additional brine or salt as required. The anode consists of a number of pieces of gasretort carbon e which are cast in the lead cover e'. When in use, the chloride solution passes through the diaphragm, and is retained by the cathode, down which it gradually flows to the collecting-trough. Chlorine is evolved as usual, and is collected, while sodium or potassium is first formed on the cathode, and then becomes hydrated. By the time the liquid reaches the bottom, the product consists of caustic alkali and only contains a small percentage of undecomposed chloride. A large number of cells is shown in one of the figures combined together. A current density of between 444 and 510 ampÞres per square metre of cathode surface is preferably used. The temperature must be less than 80‹ C.

Abstract: 7280. Lake, H. H., [Schellenbach, W. L.]. April 19. Driving-gear.-Relates to variable-speed toothed gearing with reversing means for engines and the like, the device being adapted to be clamped to the frame of the machine to which the varying speeds are to be given. A number of differentsized gear-wheels 4 &c. are arranged on stud shafts a &c. in two groups within the housings D, D'. The end of each stud shaft forms a clutch, with which may engage the inner end of the collar H<1> pinned to the centering pin H passing through the knurl G, on which there is a guide incline for the pin j projecting through the sleeve F<1>. The journal for the common intermediate-wheel 15 is eccentrically supported on the hub B of the frame A, as shown in Fig. 5, and the other intermediate-wheel 16 is similarly arranged in its housing D'. The radially-sliding latch plate I enables a notch in it to be brought into engagement with the recess k<2> on the shatt C to hold the housing F in position, which in turn holds the gears 13, 14 against the opposing face of the housing D. Clutch sleeves N, N<1>, Fig. 8, splined to gears 17, 18 and pinned by centering pins n, n', adapted to enter the recesses s in the stud shafts a &c., have clutches engaging with the ends of the shafts a &c. Rack sleeves Q, Q<1>, sliding in sleeves P, P<1>, operate the clutch sleeves, and an operating or reversing knurl 0, engaging with the rack sleeves, enables the sleeves and pins to slide in opposite directions through the gears 17, 18, so that the centering pins may be brought into and out of engagement with the clutch end of the stud shafts. The gearwheel 18 meshes with a wheel on the feed-shaft. A suitable index for directing the operator may be provided. One or more intermediate-wheels may be employed, and driven gears, corresponding to the gear 17, may be mounted on the housing A concentrically to the shaft C, if desired.
