Abstract: 999,645. Separating particles from gases by filters ; washing gases. E. WEISSE. Jan. 31, 1962 [Jan. 31, 1961], No. 3758/62. Headings B1R and BIT. In a process for separating noxious gaseous, vaporous and pulverulent constituents from waste gases evolved in the furnace treatment of metals and metal alloys the waste gases are drawn from a space above the melt into a duct and a carrier gas is introduced into the duct, the carrier gas cooling the waste gases and/or conveying these to means whereby the noxious constituents are cooled and condensed, and the dust particles so formed together with the residual gases are fed into a filter or washing assembly, the velocity of the gases being maintained by suction means connected to the filter or washing assembly and being sufficient to prevent the noxious constituents from precipitating on the walls of the duct or the means for cooling and condensing. As shown in Fig. 6, the melt 2 is disposed in a container 1 having a gas-tight cover 3 extending from which is a duct 5 leading to a cooler 6 and a filter 8. A pipe 7 is provided for the carrier gas and the suction means is a radial pump 12. A gaseous treating agent is fed through a duct 4 having at its outlet a nozzle assembly or a baffle plate. The cooler is dispensed with if the carrier gas cools the waste gases sufficiently. The radial pump 12 may be replaced by a liquid operated injector, Fig. 8 (not shown), the liquid of which removes any noxious constituents passing the filter 8. The latter may be replaced by a washing tower, the liquid of which circulates in a closed circuit containing a cooling and treating plant. A washing tower may be connected downstream or upstream of the filter.

Title: Improvements in or relating to the production of aryl-ª‰ú‘ª†-dihydroxypropyl ethers
Filed: 1947-02-12
Abstract: Aryl b  : g -dihydroxypropyl ethers are prepared by treating a phenol with a substantially equimolecular amount of glycidol or b -methylglycidol at or above room temperature in the presence of a catalyst consisting of a quaternary ammonium salt or a tertiary amine which forms a salt in dilute hydrochloric acid.  The reaction temperature should not exceed 95-100 DEG  C.  Specified tertiary amines are pyridine, quinoline, and dimethylaniline.  Any phenol may be employed, e.g. homocyclic or heterocyclic, e.g. 8-hydroxy quinoline, and may be substituted or unsubstituted.  The reaction may be carried out in a liquid medium, e.g. in an alcohol, glycol, glycol ether, aromatic hydrocarbon, aromatic hydrocarbon halogenated in the nucleus, or an aryl alkyl ether. The ether may be recovered in the usual manner.  In the examples: (1) glycidol is treated with o-cresol in the presence of pyridine to give o-tolyl b  : g -dihydroxypropyl ether; (2-7) glycidol is similarly treated with p-chlorophenol, a -naphthol, catechol, o-bromophenol, o-iodophenol, o-allyloxyphenol and p-methoxyphenol in the presence of pyridine or quinoline; (7-15) b -methylglycidol is treated with phenol, o-cresol, p-cresol, p-methoxyphenol, o-chlorophenol, p-chlorophenol and m-nitrophenol, using pyridine, quinoline, tri-n-propylamine or N-propylpiperidine as catalysts; (16) b -methylglycidol is treated with phenol in the presence of pyridine ethiodide to give b  : g -dihydroxy-b -methylpropoxybenzene; (17-24) glycidol is treated with phenol, o-cresol, p-methoxyphenol, p-chlorophenol, and p-cresol, in the presence of pyridine ethiodide or methiodide or quinoline ethiodide as catalyst.  Specification 470,181 is referred to.

A levelling valve assembly 1 is rigid with one half axle 2a has an actuating lever 5 coupled to the other half axle 2b. The lever 5 is connected to the chassis frame 15 through a pair of springs 7, 8. In Fig. 1 the assembly 1 comprises respective admission and exhaust valves 11, 12 the movement of which is damped by a dashpot piston 16. In Fig. 2 the piston 16 is locked against movement on the occurrence of centrifugal force. The latter operates in one direction or the other upon masses 19, 20, to project respective lugs 23, 24, into engagement with corresponding recesses in the rod 16a of the piston 16. In Fig. 3, a valve 26 is disposed in series with the valve 12 so that when the driver and passengers alight from the vehicle, air will not escape from the spring. A spring 27 which opposes opening of the valve, is selected to allow the valve 26 to lift at a pressure which corresponds to the weight of the driver only in the vehicle, or the driver and one passenger.

Title: Improvements in the magnetic arc control in high pressure electric discharge lamps
IPC: H01J61/10
Filed: 1947-02-17
Abstract: 667,662. Metal-vapour lamps. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd., BEESON, E. J. G., and SHEPHERD, P. Aug. 17, 1948 [Feb. 17, 1947], No. 4573/47. Class 39 (i). [Also in Group XXXV] In an arrangement including a high-pressure metal vapour discharge lamp in which the arc is prevented from imping- ing on the envelope by magnetic deflection, the intensity of this magnetic field is continuously varied as the lamp tilts one way or the other; the degree of variation is automatically controlled by gravity-operated means as the lamp tilts. In Figs. 1 and 2, 6 is the magnetic core and 5 the surrounding solenoid. Over each end of the core 6 fits a magnetic shunt in the form of a yoke 7, pivoted at 8 and ending in a pendulum bob 9. The yoke has a cut-away portion 10 shaped to provide a particular rate of variation in the shunting effect. When the lamp tilts, the axle 8 tilts with it, the pendulum and shunt remaining vertical. As the lamp tilts anti-clockwise from the position shown in Fig. 2, the shunt 7 approaches the core 6 more closely, reducing its effective intensity at the arc path, until the shunt gap is fully closed, remaining closed for any further anti-clockwise tilting. As the lamp is tilted clockwise from the position of Fig. 2, the shunt swings completely clear of the core 6, giving maximum magnetic intensity at the arc. The normal traverse is 60 degrees tilt either way. In the embodiment of Fig. 3 there is no shunt, a cam and lever mechanism being arranged to move the'core itself directly towards or away from the lamp, the mechanism being actuated by the tilting of the lamp.
