Title: The continuous treatment of textile material with liquid
IPC: D06B3/20
Filed: 1965-07-01
Abstract: 1,117,468. Textile treating apparatus. C. VALLS. I July, 1965 [1 July, 1964], No. 28005/65. Headings D1L and D1S. In the continuous treatment of textile material with a liquid, the material is fed through a vessel, with sealing means acting at the edges of the material whereby the material divides the vessel into two portions, one on each side of the material, a pressure difference is effected between the two portions such that liquid is passed through the material from one side to the other. With reference to Fig. 1, the material is guided through the vessel 1 on transverse bars 16 which may be of rectangular section with rounded corners, of triangular section or with the upper portion of trapezium shaped section, Figs. 26 and 27 (not shown). The sealing means at the edges of the material are provided by bridging elements with slidable members contacting the sides of the vessel and the edges of the material, Figs. 5, 28-30 (not shown). The treating liquid is pumped to the upper portion of the vessel, passes through the material and is withdrawn through a suction pipe 9 in the lower portion of the vessel; the withdrawn liquid may return directly to the pump or pass first through a heating unit 11. The material may enter and leave the vessel at the same side, in which case the material contacts the upper and lower surfaces of the supporting elements which may be transversely extending rotatable rollers, Fig. 2 (not shown). The treating liquid is pumped into the vessel at both top and bottom, passes through the material and is withdrawn through suction pipes positioned between the rollers. When a closed vessel is used, pressure seals must be maintained at the entry and exit of the material; these seals may be achieved by mechanical means, Figs. 1 and 2, or by means of liquid towers, Figs. 4 and 13 (not shown). Material in cord form may be treated by looping the said material several times round guide rollers, the entry and exit being at the same side of the vessel, Figs. 13 to 16 (not shown); alternatively hanks of yarn linked in chain form may be led over rollers of gradually diminishing diameter causing an accumulation of the material at the exit end, Fig. 25 (not shown). When an open vessel is used, the treating liquid may be sprayed onto the material from below the liquid level in the vessel, Figs. 18, 19 and 21 (not shown), or may be sprayed on above the level of liquid in the vessel, Figs. 23 and 24 (not shown). The material may be supported in a laterally tensioned condition by means of spiked or pincer chains, Figs. 20 and 21 (not shown), or may be supported on rollers having an axially extending slot or a plurality of slots, a telescopic or rotatable tube being provided inside each roller to expose a varying length of slot or a varying number of slots for the withdrawal of treating liquid through the inside of the rollers, Figs. 7-12 (not shown). A plurality of apparatus in accordance with the invention may be successively joined together for the treatment of the material, Fig. 17 (not shown).

Abstract: 599,053. fastenings for ropes. WORSLEY, G. N. E. TINDAL-CARILL-, and SCREW MACHINE PRODUCTS, Ltd. Oct. 24, 1945, No. 28057. [Class 44] A locking cleat for securing ropes comprises an operating lever 15 and a locking lever 20 pivotally mounted in spaced positions in a suitable frame, an abutment 22 fixed adjacent the locking lever, a positive mechanical connection between the levers such that pivotal movement of one is transmitted in the opposite sense of angular movement to the other, and a fairlead 16 on the operating lever, the arrangement being such that a rope 17 passed through the fairlead may be gripped between the locking lever and the abutment by imparting a pivotal movement to the operating lever, and released by an opposite pivotal movement of the latter, the locking cleat being also provided with automatic means for positively holding the locking lever in either the locked or the unlocked position. Such pivotal movements of the operating lever may be effected by pulling on the free end of the rope in the corresponding direction. In the embodiment shown, the abutment 22 comprises a small pulley, and the locking lever 20 is of duplex form to form a loop 21 partially enclosing the rope. The positive mechanical connection between the levers comprises a pin 18 working in slots 19. The part of the loop of the locking lever which engages the rope when locked, is preferably made with an inturned edge or rim by which the rope is nipped against the surface of the abutment 22. The automatic means for positively holding the locking lever in either the released or locked positions may consist of a, spring-pressed toggle member 23 co-operating with the locking lever 20 in such a manner that in moving the lever into either its locked or released positions, the toggle member must be pivoted across a dead-centre.

Title: Buck for ironing collars
IPC: D06F71/22
Filed: 1946-09-19
Abstract: 616,903. Ironing machines. ASHER, W. J. Sept. 19, 1946, No. 28110. '[Class 138(ii)] The pressing surface of the buck 10 of a collar-pressing machine is shaped somewhat like a low-pitched gable roof and comprises plane surfaces 14 which are inclined to one another and disposed one on each side of a segmental conical surface 26. The lines of the connection between the conical surface 26 and the two plane surfaces 14 intersect the edge of the back of the buck at the slightly-rounded apex 19 of the segment; the front edge of the segment forms an arc 24 which is positioned below the level of the apex and has its opposite ends 22 located in the planes 14. The buck may be formed of wood, with its shaped upper surface provided with appropriate padding and covering. The lower surface of the co-operating press element 30 is shaped so as to be complementary to the upper surface of the buck 10 and may be steam heated. Since the pressing surface provided by this arrangement is of gradually-increasing curvature from the arc 24 to the apex 19, the neckband of a collar 12 placed in the press as shown in Fig. 1 will be stretched to a lesser extent than the outer fold 35, thus providing adequate space for the tie when the collar is folded. The buck and co-operating press element may be used for pressing collars whether attached to, or separate from, shirts.

Oct. 18, 1933, No. 28849. Void [Abridged as open to inspection under Sect. 91 of the Acts, April 23, 1934]. [Class 38 (iv)] Sequential dimming of lamps in two or more branch circuits 4, 5 ; 6, 7 is carried out approximately in step and, at an intermediate point in each branch, the wave of illumination is held up until that in the other branch or branches is at the same stage. Lamps 8 .. 13 and 16 .. 21 in separate circuits are each connected to supply mains 4, 5 and 6, 7 through saturable inductances 23, the saturating windings 25 of which are supplied through rectifiers 26 from across the preceding lamp in the respective series. The saturating winding of the inductance in circuit with the first lamp in each series is supplied through a rectifier from across the inductance in the last, or an intermediate, lamp in the series, and the circuits of these first lamps is completed through a switch 28. Closure of the switches 28 produces sequential and progressively increasing energization and de-energization of the lamps 8-13 and 16-21 in each series, the cycle being repeated as long as the switches are closed. At an intermediate point in each series, the sum of the voltages across the lamps at this point in all the series is applied to a voltage sensitive device, e.g. a relay or a circuit comprising capacity 32 and self saturable inductance 31, and the supply to the next succeeding lamp in each series is controlled by this relay so that if the waves of energization in all the circuits are not in step, they are held up and only allowed to proceed when the lamps at this point in all the circuits are fully energized.

Filed: 1935-10-21
Abstract: 464,688. Moulding synthetic resins. ROHM, O. Oct. 21, 1935, No. 29034. Convention date, April 5. [Class 87 (ii)] [Also in Groups XXXVI and XI] In an electric resistance the conductor or conductors is or are embedded in a material comprising one or more solid polymerization products of one or more vinyl, acrylic or homologous compounds. Examples of such compounds are methacrylic acid methyl or ethyl ester, acrylic acid ethyl ester, cynnamic acid esters, vinyl acetate or vinyl chloride and styrene. Resistances may be made for heating or measuring purposes and may be hard and tough or soft and flexible. They may be in the form of sheets, blocks or rods and may be transparent or opaque. The resistance wire 1 may be wound to form a visible pattern if desired. The resistance wire 1 may be wound around spaced porcelain rods 2 and placed in a narrow chamber into which the polymerizable material 3 is poured. The compound is then polymerized and a resistor of plate form having the resistance completely embedded is obtained. Examples of resistances and their manufacture are as follows : (1) a heating filament of nickelin is wound as a plate composed of mica sheets stuck together. and is placed in a chamber into which is introduced a de-aerated solution of 90 parts methacrylic acid methyl ester and 0À02 parts benzoyl peroxide. The vessel is heated for 20-30 hours at a temperature rising from 50-120‹ C. A glass like mass enclosing the resistance is obtained. The solution may however consist of methacrylic acid methyl ester, acrylic acid, butyl ester and ground asbestos with benzoyl peroxide ; (2) Maganin wire is wound on a plate or frame of polymethacrylic acid methyl ester having 10 per cent dibutyl phothalate and is immersed in a solution of polymethacrylic acid methyl ester in the monomeric form. The solution is polymerized as in example (1) and a resistor is obtained in which artificial ageing of the manganin has been effected ; (3) A film of polyacrylic acid methyl ester is wound in narrow coils with a heating wire and then poured over in a bag of viscose foil with a de-aerated partially polymerized solution of aerylic acid methyl ester having a small percentage of turpentine oil and benzoyl peroxide. The mass is heated for 10-20 hours at 50-70‹ C. and a rubber like transparent mass is obtained giving a flexible heater ; (4) A helical wire is stretched centrally through a tube of metal or glass and the tube is filled with a mixture of methacrylic acid methyl ester, acrylic acid ethyl ester, kaolin, and benzoyl peroxide. The mass polymerizes when raised slowly from 50-120‹ C. The product is then removed from the tube. Instead of kaolin, slate powder, soot, &c. may be used. The polymerizible material may be a mixture of methyl methacrylate and butyl acrylate. The esters may also be made by compressing the heating elements with the finished polymerization products in the form of plates, films, powder &c. Specification 436,084, [Group IV], is referred to.
