Title: Process for producing secondary aliphatic phosphine oxides
IPC: C07F9/53
Filed: 1959-07-28
Abstract: Bis-(2-cyanoethyl)- and octyl 2-cyanoethyl-phosphine oxides which may be obtained by contacting the corresponding secondary phosphines with dry air (see Group IV(b)) may be used as plasticizers for polyacrylonitrile.ALSO:Secondary aliphatic phosphine oxides are obtained by bringing a secondary aliphatic phosphine into contact with dry air until reaction ceases and recovering the thus formed secondary phosphine oxide product.  The secondary aliphatic phosphines are defined as those having the formula (R)(R1)PH wherein R and R1 which may be the same or different are saturated or unsaturated straight or branch chain aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals which may be unsubstituted or substituted by a nonoxidizable substituent such as halogen, cyano, amino, hydroxyl, carbamyl, acyloxy, carbalkoxy, carboxy, alkoxy, aryl or aryloxy groups.  The reaction with dry air generally takes place at from 0 to 100 DEG C. and preferably from 20 DEG  to 60 DEG C. and may be carried out in an inert organic liquid diluent or solvent, e.g. an aliphatic alcohol, a ketone, an aliphatic ester, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, acetonitrile or dioxane.  Examples are given for the production of bis(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine oxide, di-n-butyl-, di-n-octyl-, and di-dodecyl phosphine oxides, octyl - 2 - carbethoxyethyl phosphine oxide, bis(2-phenylethyl)phosphine oxide and octyl 2-cyanoethyl phosphine oxide.  The dialkyl phosphine oxides containing more than three carbon atoms in each alkyl radical, e.g. the -n-butyl-, di-n-octyl- and di-dodecyl-phosphine oxides, are stated to be useful as anti-knock agents in gasolines and as antifriction additives to lubricating oils and the bis-(2-cyanoethyl)-and octyl 2-cyanoethyl-phosphine oxides are useful as plasticizers for polyacrylonitrile.ALSO:Dialkyl phosphine oxides containing more than 3 carbon atoms in each alkyl radical, e.g. di-n-butyl, di-n-octyl- and di-dodecyl-phosphine oxides which may be obtained by contacting the corresponding secondary phosphines with dry air (see Group IV(b)) may be used as antiknock agents in gasolines and as antifriction additives for lubricating oils.

Abstract: 298,944. Bosch Akt.-Ges., R. Oct. 17, 1927, [Convention date]. Driving - arrangements. - In toothed gearing, for example for driving a dynamo shaft g from a magneto shaft h, an intermediate pinion b is mounted with universal freedom upon its supporting pin d so as to adapt itself to inaccuracies in the gearing. Preferably a bush f of nonmetallic material such as bakelized cotton is mounted on the pin d so as to fit but turn thereon and the pinion b fits loosely upon the bush. The pin d is mounted on a plate e which can be adjusted in two directions at right-angles to secure initial adjustment of the gearing. Specifications 183,844 and 272,952, [both in Class 80 (i), Gearing, Belt &c.], are referred to. According to the Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) resistex, novotext, or the material known by the Trade Mark " Turbax " may he employed for the bush f. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.

Title: Improvements in and relating to autographic registers
IPC: B41L5/14
Filed: 1948-10-07
Abstract: 666,986. Autographic registers. LAMSON PARAGON SUPPLY CO., Ltd., GARWOOD, V. W., CASTLETON, A. E. Oct. 4, 1949 [Oct. 7, 1948], No. 26186/48. Class 100 (ii). [Also in Groups XV and XIX] In an autographic register of the kind which operate on continuous strips of stationery, spring-operated printing means are arranged so that during each feed cycle of the record strips through the register, spring energy is produced and stored for effecting the printing of the strips at the beginning of the next successive feed cycle. The register has an operating handle 5 attached to a shaft 6 having a quadrant. 7 which engages a pinion 8 on a feed shaft 9 to carry the record strips 12 over a writing plate 13. A gap C is provided on the writing.plate 13 above which are mounted adjustable date wheels 15, a type face 16 for printing a heading and an ink ribbon. Below the gap, and pivoted about a shaft 19, are an impression strip 22 of, e.g. hard rubber on a frame 21 and contact bosses 20 on a frame 18 which has tension springs 24 tending to swing it in a clockwise direction. A stop 30, Fig. 2 (not shown), limits the upward movement of the frame 18 so that it cannot hold the impression strip 22 in contact with the record - strips as they are fed. This frame is provided with an extension 31 carrying rollers 32 and 33 and is held down by a hook 36. When the handle 5 is given its initial movement a plunger 38 engages the end of a lever 37a thus disengaging the hook 36 from the roller 33 so that the striker frame 18 flies upwards under the action of the springs 24, making the type impression. The. handle is then further moved so that the feeding operation takes place. Towards the end of this operation the plunger 38 passes behind the lever 37a allowing the hook 36 to return to its original position and a cam 34 bears on the roller 32 to depress the frame 18 and tension the springs 24 thus resetting the striker frame for the next printing operation. Specification 229,616, [Class 106 (i)], is referred to.

Abstract: 628,979. Entry and exit registers. MEURIOT, P. A. Sept. 2, 1946, No. 26403. Convention date, Aug. 31, 1945. [Class 106 (iii)] A device for recording graphically the entrance and exit of passengers on a vehicle comprises a movable plate on an entrance step and two electrical contacts which close in an order dependent upon whether a passenger is entering or leaving, each contact operating a device which makes a distinctive mark on a moving band. A centrifugal governor 2 operates a switch 4 so that the device only operates when the vehicle has stopped, but a switch attached to the door may be substituted. On entry, a passenger steps on the plate 7 which moves inwards on rollers and closes a contact 15, thus energizing an electromagnet and causing a pen 13 to make a record on a moving strip 6. On moving to the next higher step, the plate 7 is pushed outwards, closes contact 16 and operates a pen 14. Fig. 2 shows a record of a passenger boarding and a passenger alighting. The strip 6 may be operated by a clockwork mechanism 17 and recording rollers 18 may be provided. In a modification (Fig. 3, not shown), one pen only is used and moved in opposite directions by the electromagnets. In a further modification, Fig. 7, the plate 7 pivots about an axis 26. The strip may be used to determine the times at which passengers enter and leave and the mileage between successive stops. The total number of passengers may be registered on a counting mechanism.
