Title: Improvements in or relating to the Manufacture of Dialkylbarbituric Acids.
Inventor: ELLIS GEORGE BELOE
Filed: 1905-05-29
Granted: 1906-05-24
Abstract: 11,219. Ellis, G. B., [Merck, E.]. May 29. Dialkylbarbituric acids or their alkyl derivatives are produced by hydrolyzing compounds of the general formula in which R1 and R2 = alkyl or alphyl, X1 and X2 = hydrogen, or acid radicles such as CH3CO-, H2N CO-, C2H5OCO-, C2H5OCS-, NH2ÀC(NH)-, or H2NÀCS-, and Y1, Y2, and Y, = imide or substituted imide groups such as = NÀCH3, = NÀCN, = NÀCONH2, except those described in Specifications Nos. 2054 and 21,833, A.D. 1903, Nos. 14,014 and 28,149, A.D. 1904, and No. 2787, A.D. 1905. When the group attached to the nitrogen is of acid character, it is usually split off during the condensation of the barbituric acid derivative, but compounds containing the groups Y1, Y2, or Y3 require subsequent treatment with hydrolyzing- agents, preferably acids. In examples, the condensation products of guanylurea, and dialkylcyanacetic esters, diakylmalonitriles, or dialkylmalonylchlorides, or of esters of allophanic and dialkylmalonic acids are treated. 5-Diethyl-1-methylbarbituric acid is also produced by treating with acids 5-diethyl-1-methyl-4-methylaminobarbituric acid.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Shuttle Changing Mechanism for Weaving Looms.
Inventor: VANDENBROUCKE CHARLES LOUIS
Filed: 1905-06-27
Granted: 1906-06-27
Abstract: 1 3 , 2 7 8 . Vandenbroucke, C. L., and Vandenbroucke, A. June 27. Loom shuttle-changing mechanism.-At each alternate forward movement of the lay, a feeder 6, Fig. 1, is pressed against the weft in the shuttle by means of a lever 8 and an adjustable rod 4, which is yieldingly raised and lowered by a cam-oscillated lever 2, acting through springs 5, 22 and a collar surrounding the rod. When the weft is substantially exhausted, an abutment 9 on the rod 4 is raised above the projecting end of a fork 10, and the hooked end of the latter is not raised and is engaged by an oscillating hammer 11. The fork and an attached part 13 are moved forwards, and, through a lever 14, a transverse shaft 15 is rocked. An arm 23, Fig. 2, on the other end of the shaft 15 acts through a rod 24 to cause a hooked lever 25 to be engaged and raised by a cam-oscillated lever 26, and, through a lever 27, a link 28, a lever 29, a rod 30, levers 31, 32, and links 33, the acting shuttle box 35 is moved rearwards and allows the used shuttle to slide down an inclined plane into a suitable receptacle. At the same time, a supplementary shuttle box 36, containing a fresh shuttle, is moved into the operative position, and the fresh shuttle is thereupon picked to the opposite side of the loom. A rod 40 is also raised by the lever 29, and acts through a pivoted lever 41 to withdraw a holder 43 from under the shuttles in the magazine 44, and the shuttles fall. When the lever 26 is allowed to descend, a spring 38 connected to the lever 31 moves the boxes 35, 36 to their original positions, and the holder 43 pushes the bottom shuttle in the magazine into the box 36 and remains as a support for the other shuttles. A spring- actuated lever is connected to the picker, and withdraws the latter from the boxes to permit of their sliding movement.

Title: An Improved Photographic Printing Process for Obtaining Colored Prints
Inventor: BROWNE EDWARD JOHN
Filed: 1905-11-04
Granted: 1906-09-13
Abstract: 22,580. Browne, E. J. Nov. 4. Producing coloured photographs ; heat processes printing ; toning; intensifying; clearing.- Coloured photographs are produced by a process in which basic colourings due to chemical action are modified or changed by the application of heat. A printing-out paper is only partly printed, and is developed by pyrogallic acid and fixed and toned in a bath containing ammonium sulphocyanide, lead acetate, potassium bichromate, and gold chloride. The pink half tones thus obtained are changed to heliotrope by a bath of pyrogallic acid. The high lights of the prints are cleared by a ferricyanide.bath. The colours thus obtained are now modified by heat by means of a hot iron or roller. Yellow tints may be obtained by a lead salt bath, then a subsequent bath of potassium bichromate, and washing off the-deposit formed. The yellow shades are changed.to deep yellow-orange by heat. The blue colourings may be intensified by a bath of potassium ferricyanide and perchloride of iron. The application of soda sulphite to any part of the print prevents that part taking a yellow colouring.

Granted: 1907-08-15
Abstract: 22,930. Poole, E. C. Oct. 17. Piles; pile - drivers.-Ferro-concrete piles are formed by driving or building up a reinforced casing or shell, which is then filled up with concrete. Three methods are described. (1) A short length of wood pile a, Fig. 1<A>, shod in any suitable manner, is provided with a shoulder a<1>, and connected to a framework formed of vertical angleirons b, Figs. 1 and 1<A>, held together by straps c. Reinforced slabs d, preferably constructed as described in Specification No. 6325, A.D. 1905, are placed around the framework, and rest on the shoulder a<1>. A driving-dolly e passes through the framework, and is secured thereto by temporary clamps e', the clamp e<2> bearing upon the top of the casing formed of the slabs d. When the casing has been driven to the required depth, the dolly is removed and the interior of the casing filled up with cement concrete. (2) The angle-irons are attached to an horizontal band b<1>, Fig. 2A, and the end of the temporary dolly is pointed and shod, as in an ordinary pile. The slabs d, Figs. 2 and 2<A>, rest upon the flange of the band b<1>, and the dolly is secured to the frame in the same way as before. When the dolly is withdrawn, the slabs are built up to the required height, and the interior of the frame is filled up with cement concrete. (3) The third form comprises a composite pile, as shown in Figs. 3<A> and 3<C>. The angle-iron frame b is secured to the timber pile a, which is driven completely into the ground by the removable dolly e. The slabs d are then put in place, and the centre of the pile filled in as before. In all three cases, the interior of the pile may be strengthened with iron rods. When erecting a pile on a rocky bed, an iron bar is employed instead of the pile a, and jumped into the rock, and the slabs d are placed in position, and the interior filled as before. When the composite pile is used in shallow water, a length of casing formed of the slabs is placed in position, through which the timber stump or pile. a is driven, the pile being completed with slabs d and concreted.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Cut-off Machines for Marble Slabs or the like.
Inventor: PEIRCE JOHN ROYDEN
Filed: 1907-01-29
Granted: 1908-01-23
Abstract: 2282. Peirce, J. R. Jan. 29. Sawing marble &c. - In cutting marble slabs &c. into footboards, marble trim, &c., a separate machine is used for cross-cutting to avoid the necessity of turning round the stone or wheel for the transverse cut as is described in Specification No. 13,968, A.D. 1906. The slab D' may be fixed on the stationary table through undercut grooves; or it may be pressed up against a side stop D and an end stop E, which is fixed in any position by a screw and kept at right-angles to the stop D by means of the extension E<1>. The carborundum cutting-wheel B is mounted in a carriage N moved across the work by screw gearing, the table having a slot H to receive the wheel. The wheel is driven by a belt, which passes over pulleys K, P, Fig. 3, and guide-pulleys Q on the carriage, being kept tight by a tension pulley. In order to cut to the desired depth, or to adjust for wear or for wheels of different diameter, the end plate M which carries the cutting-wheel is vertically adjustable by a screw 0 in the carriage. The beltshifting mechanism is arranged so that the carriage makes one stroke in each direction, and then stops until started again by a foot &c. lever n. The traversing-screw is driven by worm gearing from the shaft X, which carries two pairs of pulleys a, b, Y, Z, the former for the return motion and the cutter for the forward motion of the carriage. By pressing down the foot-lever n, the belt-shifting lever g is pulled over to the driving-pulley Y through links l, m. The lever g is connected by a pin and elongated slot k to a rod j connected with the lever h. When, in the forward motion of the carriage, the tappet p engages an arm r, Figs. 1 and 5<a>, a forked lever s moves a block t backwards, and compresses a spring w against a block v, which is V-shaped to engage a hook y The hook has a pin engaged by a slotted link z on the block, so as to lift up the hook y at a given time, and allow the compressed spring to move the rod u backwards, and hence to move the lever h to the reversing pulley a and the lever g to the idle belt Z. When in the reverse motion the tappet q engages the arm r, the rod u is moved forward to bring back the lever h, but the slotted link j slides on the lever g and the carriage comes to rest. The main shaft may be connected through variable-speed gearing 3 to the overhead shaft d which by a belt c drives the pulleys Y, Z, and directly to the overhead shaft f which drives the pulleys a, b. The main shaft is driven by a motor 2.
