Title: Improvements in and relating to Tools for Eyeletting Operations.
Inventor: NEWEY JAMES GEORGE
IPC: A43D100/02
Filed: 1917-01-04
Abstract: 104,664. Newey, J. G. Jan. 4, 1917. Setting eyelets.-In eyeleting stiff material, as' in the manufacture of machine-gun belts, it is sometimes necessary to force the material down on to the eyelets by a separate operation, the spring presser-foot of an ordinary eyeleting- machine yielding too readily to apply the force required. To overcome this, a movable piece m is mounted on the eyeleting-tool, preferably by hing- ing it to one of the guide-pins g. The eyelets having been placed on the lower tools b with the washer plates or bars, the material is placed upon them; the upper tool is then brought down with the piece m in the forward position, in which it renders the presser-foot f rigid, and the material is forced down on to the eyelets. The upper tool is raised, the upper washer plates are placed in position, and finally the tool is brought down with the piece m swung back; the presser-foot f is then free to move back against the springs j, and the eyelets are clinched by the tools e in the ordinary manner.

Title: Improvements in or relating to aerials for use in wireless signalling
IPC: H01Q1/48
Filed: 1921-01-04
Abstract: 177,869. Eckersley, T. L. Jan. 4, 1921. Aerials.-An aerial, instead of being earthed, is connected to a capacity or screen comprising a number of equal insulated horizontal wires, each wire being of a length at least equal to the height of the aerial above the ground plus the length of the horizontal part of the aerial, if any. The mean distance between one wire and the next is between two and four times the height of the screen above the ground. The breadth of the screen should be at least equal to the breadth of the aerial plus twice the height of the aerial. The height of the screen should be as low as practicable, regard being had to the increase in the number of wires necessitated by a decrease in height. The screen is supported on, but insulated from, metal posts. A nodal point of the system comprising screen and aerial may be earthed. This point may be the point of connection between aerial and screen, or a point on the loading coil. Fig. 5 shows an aerial A and one wire S of the screen. The outer ends of the screen wires may be raised as shown, and the outer wires may be higher than the inner. With an umbrella or radial aerial, the screen wires radiate from a point beneath the centre of the aerial, and the outer ends of the wires may be forked With a fan-shaped aerial of small angle, the screen wires are preferably parallel, or alternatively, as in Fig. 6, in which the outer wires of the screen S are parallel to the outer wires of the aerial A. Unwanted oscillations in the system may be minimized by making the screen wires as nearly equal in length as possibly, and balancing small effective electrical differences of length by inserting induction coils in the wires. A subsidiary screen may also be used below the main screen, the point of connection of the aerial may be adjusted slightly away from a node, or the free ends of the screen wires may be connected.

Abstract: 564,060. Zirconium oxide. EVERY, C. E. (Titanium Alloy Manufacturing. Co.). Jan. 8, 1943, No. 410. Drawings to Specification. [Class 1 (iii)] Zirconium oxide for use as an opacifier is prepared by heating with molten caustic soda zirconium oxide containing a small proportion of silica or to which a small proportion of silica has been added, solidifying, leaching out soluble sodium and silicon compounds with water and acid, drying, and calcining. The silica is preferably 2-10 per cent by weight of the zirconia and must be present as such. Silicon carbide present in zirconia produced by some methods may oxidize during the treatment to produce part or all of the necessary silica. Sodium nitrate may be added to aid oxidation, and small amounts of borax. Some. zirconium oxides, for example that described in Specification 544,823, may contain all or part of the silica required. Relatively pure oxides are preferably used, for example those produced by the processes described in U.S.A. Specifications 1,351,091,2,110,733 and 2,168,603 (British Specification 535,011). The mixture of zirconia and silica is milled, preferably to finer than 325 mesh, and added to molten caustic soda, at at least 750‹ C., in the proportion of 2¢ or more parts of caustic soda to 1 of zirconia, preferably about 4:1 by weight. When reaction ceases, the melt is poured out to solidify. It is leached with water, preferably at least 4 parts to 1 of solid, and the washing repeated, finally with dilute hydrochloric acid followed by washing out of acid and acid salts. The product is dried and calcined at 600-800‹ C. The average particle size is 0.5-0.8 micron. , In examples: (1) zirconium oxide, produced by oxidation of the carboxide made from zircon in an electric furnace, and containing 0.7 per cent silicon carbide, is mixed with 5 per cent each of silica, sodium nitrate, and borax, and reacted with caustic soda at 750‹ C. for 45-60 mins. After the leaching, the product is dried at 130 and calcined at 600‹ C. ; (2) the zirconia is made by oxidation of the cyanonitride produced from zircon and contains 4-6 per cent of silica. It is mixed with sodium nitrate and borax and treated as in (1) ; (3) the initial material of (1) is treated to remove all but 0.1 per cent silica and silicon carbide and processed as in (1) except for drying at 140‹ C. Results of enamelling tests compare the opacity or reflectance of treated and untreated zirconium oxides.
