Granted: 1909-04-29
Abstract: 3602. Farbwerke vorm. Meister, Lucius, & Br³ning. May 28, 1908, [Convention date]. Samples furnished. Monoazo dyes are obtained by combining diazotized mononitrobenzoyldiamines with 2 : 5 : 7 - aminonaphthol sulphonic acid or a derivative thereof substituted in the amino group, and then reducing the nitro group in the dye-stuff thus formed. The amino dye-stuff may be diazotized on the fibre and combined with amines or phenols such as #-naphthol. According to an example, p-nitrobenzoyl-p-phenylenediamine is diazotized and combined with acetyl-2: 5 : 7-aminonapbtbol sulphonic acid ; the product is reduced by sodium sulphide. It dyes cotton bluish-red tints. The m-nitrobenzoyl-p-phenylenediamine may also be employed, or the derivatives of m-phenylenediamine or m-toluylenediamine.

Title: Improvements in Cheesemaking.
Inventor: BOND FRANCIS THOMAS
IPC: A01J25/00
Filed: 1909-04-08
Granted: 1910-01-06
Abstract: 8492. Bond, F. T. April 8. Cheese.-A cheese of the Stilton type is made in globular form with as little pressure as possible. Milk, either whole or partially skimmed, and with or without added cream, is coagulated by rennet, and the curd is cut and then drained on a cloth wrung out in boiling water spread over a perforated plate, being kept warm by covering with another cloth or with blanketing. The curd is placed warm in a hemispherical perforated bowl of wood or metal, and heaped above the edge. A piece of cheese-cloth wrung out in hot water is tied over the bowl, which is then suspended in an inverted position, and kept at about 70‹ F. When the escaping whey diminishes sufficiently, the cloth is removed and a smaller bowl placed upon the curd, the whole inverted to transfer it, and the smaller bowl then covered with a cloth and suspended as before. This transfer to successively smaller bowls is repeated, a warm dry cloth being used towards the end of the treatment, until the cheese is firm. It is then removed, rubbed with the hand, and placed on a dry cloth in another bowl at a temperature of about 60‹ F. A litle salt may be sprinkled, and the rubbing is frequently repeated to form a rind. Spores of the penicillium fungus may be introduced by sprinkling on the curd or by means of a wire or skewer. The bowls may be slightly flattened at the base to produce two opposite flats on the cheese.

Granted: 1910-09-01
Abstract: 20,730. Walker, A. C. Sept. 10. Levers, locking. -In a lever and quadrant control device for the change-speed gear of motor-vehicles &c., and for electric switches or other purposes, means are provided to ensure an automatic step-bystep movement of the lever, s u c h means being put out of action when desired. A detent rod B, slidingly mounted on the e control lever A, is normally pressed by a spring (not shown), into engagement w i t h notches D in the quadrant E, which passes through a slot in the lever A. The lever also carries, on studs G', a pair of slotted side plates G joined by a transverse bar or roller F, which is adapted to engage rectangular teeth 0 on the under surface of the quadrant. A link H, pivoted at J, joins this member to the detent rod B, being connected to the rod B by a pin and slot K, L and a spring M. When the detent B is fully withdrawn by grasping the handle and the pivoted part C, the pawl or catch F is also drawn up and engages the surface of the tooth 0. When the lever is then moved along the quadrant, the catch F engages between the teeth 0 and prevents further movement until the detent has been dropped into the next notch D. When it is desired to keep the member F out of action, a sliding part S in the handle of the lever A, normally pressed outwards by a spring T, is depressed, so that a lug R thereon engages a projection on the pivoted part C, allowing this member to be operated sufficiently to withdraw the detent. B, but not to advance the pawl F into the spaces between the teeth O.

The pawl may be mounted as described in Specification 18,300/08, or it may be mounted on a stud p, Fig. 2, screwed into the lock-nut and provided with a knurled, square, hexagon, or other non- slipping part engaging a similar hole in the enclosing box b, the end of the stud being screwthreaded to take a nut r, which also serves to secure the box. A further modification is shown in Fig. 6, in which the box b encloses only the spring of the pawl, which passes through a hole in the face of the nut and has a projecting part w with a rib sliding in a channel formed in the end of the box. The part of the box from which the pawl extension protrudes or the projecting parts w are bevelled as shown at u to prevent entrance of dust.

Abstract: 28,923. Morse, F. L. Dec. 15, 1908, [Convention date]. Chain-wheels. - Relates to chain gearing of the type in which chain links adapted to arch over sprocket teeth have openings engaged by a guiding-rib which extends from the rim of the sprocket-wheel into the space between the sprocket teeth. This rib is extended up to and beyond the nose line of the sprocket teeth, and the chain is correspond. ingly modified. As shown in Fig. 1, one sprocket-wheel 2 of the train is provided with one of these ribs 5. Each rib 5 is made in two semicircular segments, which are sunk in a circular groove in the wheel 2 and secured by rivets 6. The rib 5 forms webs 7 between the sprocket teeth, the webs 7 having semicircular notches 8 to provide clearance spaces for the joint-pins 4 of the chain. The chain is composed of link plates 3 threaded alternately on the pins 4 with the plates 3 in the plane of the rib 5 omitted. In one form shown in Fig. 9, washers 10 threaded on the pins 4 keep the parts of the chain properly spaced. In the form shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the plates 3 of each link are spaced apart by distance-pieces 9, Fig. 6, and fastened together by flat rivets 11. In the plane of the rib 5, each rivet 11 carries one of the pieces 9 only.

Inventor: LORING FREDERICK HENRY
IPC: H02K31/02
Filed: 1910-03-16
Granted: 1911-03-16
Abstract: 6634. Loring, F. H. March 16. Armatures; homopolar or acyclic machines ; collecting - rings.-In homopolar dynamo-electric machines the armature d is built up in a ring- like form by closely-nesting dished or corrugated rings or stampings held in compression against a spider i by conducting bolts e, which terminate in nesting 'or interlocking collecting-rings g. The armature laminae may have an S, V, U, or a W cross-section, and may be electrically riveted together with the lap-joints arranged to avoid air-gaps or to form air-gaps at suitable intervals. The electrical riveting may be effected by forming a number of indentations in the plates, which are then connected to a source of current and forced into intimate contact. The plates should preferably be dished or corrugated before they are prepared for welding. The conducting bolts e may be of drawn copper or of tough bronze, and may be insulated from the laminae by strips of hard insulating-material let into radial grooves as shown in Fig. 4. Tubular insulation also may be used, or the bolts may be enamelled with porcelain. The armature is connected to a duplicate armature by means of connectors k and cables k<1>, and the two spiders or disks i on which the armatures are mounted are drawn towards each other by steel bolts l, the hubs m on which the spiders are mounted being tapered. The collecting-rings g may be provided with inwardly projecting blades n which force air through longitudinal grooves o in the inner pole face p. In order that the armature laminae may lie in hard contact both at the inner and outer periphery, the laminae may be dished when red-hot by special tools which insure a uniform cross-section, or raised portions may be bumped on the plates which will correct the inequalities due to stretch.
