Title: Improvements in the printing of fibrous materials by impregnation
IPC: F01C1/356
Filed: 1934-05-25
Abstract: <PICT:0440559/IV/1> Pile fabric or carpet-like material comprising a non-woven felted mass or pad of fibres is printed by first wetting the material with a mordant and thereafter applying locally the colour, without mordant, by printing.  The material is preferably steamed between the application of the mordant and the <PICT:0440559/IV/2> printing.  In the arrangement shown, the material 3, Fig. 1, is drawn intermittently from a supply roll 4 over a table 2 upon which it is subjected to the successive operations.  It passes first beneath devices supplying the mordant, e.g. tartaric, acetic or formic acid, which devices may be spraying nozzles 9, felt-covered blocks or a roller of rubber or other acid-resistant material. Alternatively, it may pass through a bath of mordant. It then passes beneath steaming devices 10 carried by standards 5<a> reciprocated vertically by cams 6<a>.  Each device 10 comprises a block 12, Fig. 3, with passages 13 conducting the steam from a supply pipe 11 to pads 14 of fibrous material enclosed by a pervious covering 15, e.g. of cheese cloth or muslin.  The steam supply valve 16 is preferably operated in synchronism with the standards 5<a> so that the steaming is effected when the device 10 is lowered.  The material next passes beneath printing heads 7 carried by standards 5 reciprocated vertically by cams 6.  The heads 7 are supplied with a dye, effective in an acid medium, e.g.  Amaranth, Fuchsine or Acid green, and containing a gum thickening, by inking devices 8 reciprocated longitudinally of the table 2.  The material, with or without further mordanting, may then pass beneath additional printing heads 7<a>, similarly operated, beneath steaming devices 10<b>, through a washing pan 19 and beneath steaming devices 10<c> which effect the final drying.

Title: Improvements in or relating to pre-stressing double glazing units
Inventor: BAKER ARVID HARRY
IPC: C03B23/24
Filed: 1953-06-09
Abstract: 731,886. Double glazing units. PITTSBURGH PLATE GLASS CO. June 9, 1953, No. 15820/53. Drawings to Specification. Class 56. To minimize the effect of the tensions and compressions produced in the inner and outer faces of hollow glass units, particularly in the bends between the fused spaced sheets forming the units, due to changes in barometric pressure and/or temperature caused by using the units under different conditions, e.g. extremes of temperature and height above sea level, from those ruling at the place and time of making the units, the latter are filled with gas at superatmospheric pressure before they are sealed, thereby prestressing the glass. Tables and formulµ are given for determining the pressures and temperatures in question. It is arranged that the ratio of maximum tension on the inner face to that on the outer face is 3: 2, and that the outer face is in compression for more than half of the temperature range to which the units are subjected.

Title: Process for the production of arylamino acridine derivatives
IPC: C07D219/10
Filed: 1944-08-21
Abstract: Monocyclic arylamino acridine derivatives having the general formula <FORM:0595603/IV/1> in which R1 represents a monocyclic aryl group containing a cyano group in the o-m m- or p-position and R2 represents hydrogen or an alkyl or substituted alkyl (e.g. hydroxyalkyl alkoxyalkyl or dialkylaminoalkyl) group, are obtained by treating a meso-halogenated acridine with a primary or secondary monocyclic arylamine of the general formula NHR1R2. When a primary arylamine is used the reactants may be heated in an excess of a phenol, e.g. phenol itself or a mixture of the isomeric cresols or higher alkylated phenols, but in a modification of this method the mesohalogenated acridine and the phenol may first be heated and the product, with or without isolation, then heated with the primary arylamine in phenol; otherwise the reactants may be in solution in an alkanol containing up to eight carbon atoms, preferably anhydrous and in the presence of a small amount of copper powder.  Numerous examples are given.  Specified starting materials are primary or secondary arylamines: N-monoalkyl substituted aminobenzonitriles, and aminobenzonitriles containing one or more additional nuclear substituents.  In general, the acridines may contain one or more nuclear substituents such as alkyl, alkoxy, nitro, amino, substituted amino, cyano and halogen in either or both of the benzenoid nuclei. 7 - Methoxy - 2 - cyano - 9 - chloroacridine is obtainable by treating 41-methoxy-4-cyanodiphenylamine-2-carboxylic acid with phosphorus oxychloride.

Title: Improvements in and relating to hand hydraulic steering gear for ships
IPC: F15B17/00
Filed: 1957-05-22
Abstract: 851,362. Steering ships. DONKIN & CO. Ltd., PAULIN, W. S., and HALL, F. T. July 25, 1958 [May 22, 1957; Aug. 27, 1957], Nos. 16206/57 and 26946/57. Class 114. [Also in Group XXIX] A ship's hydraulic steering system comprises a hand operated reversible pump supplying liquid to one of two rams and a power operated pump with means sensitive to pressure variations caused by the hand pump and such that the power operated pump supplies liquid to the same ram as the hand pump. As shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 5 a hand pump 10 is connected by lines 12, 13 to a valve block 23 which is connected by lines 39, 40 to cylinders 14, 15 controlling the tiller 16. A power operated pump 24 is connected by a pressure line 24a and a return line 25a to the valve block. In order to steer to port, pump 10 is operated to supply liquid through line 13 to a chamber 30a where the pressure opens a non-return valve 26 and passes through ducts (not shown) to line 40 and ram 15. The pressure in chamber 30a also moves a shuttle 30 to the right to open a non-return valve 27 so that liquid from ram 14 can pass through line 39, by ducts (not shown) and valve 27 to line 12. Liquid from line 13 is also supplied through a duct 32 to a chamber 48 to move a valve 36 to the right, in which position the supply line 24a communicates through passages 36d in the valve and a duct 45 with a chamber 31a, whence the liquid passes through a non- return valve 28 to the ram 15. The pressure in chamber 31a moves a shuttle 31 which opens a valve 29 so that liquid from ram 14 can pass through the valve, a duct 46 and ducts 36e in the valve 36 to a chamber 36a whence it passes to the return side of pump 24. For steering the starboard the hand pump is operated to supply liquid through line 12. If it is desired to supply the steering rams solely from the power operated pump, the hand pump is actuated to produce a pressure sufficient to actuate valve 36 but insufficient to open valves 26, 27. When not steering the ram lines are closed by the valves 26-29, and valve 36 is centered by springs 34a, 35 and the supply from pump 24 passes through the passages 36d, 36e to both ends of chamber 36a and thence to the return line. In the modification of Figs. 11, 12 the power operated pump is a swash-plate pump 100 having the inclination of the swash-plate adjusted by a lever 104 normally biased by springs to a central position in which the delivery of the pump is zero. For steering to starboard a hand pump is actuated to supply liquid through a line 12 and duct 121 to move a piston 112 and lever 104 to the right so that pump 100 supplies liquid through a line 115 and non-return valve 109 to a ram line 39. The hand pump also supplies liquid through a valve 106 to the ram.

Title: Method and apparatus for growing quartz
IPC: C30B7/00
Filed: 1956-05-28
Abstract: Quartz seed crystals are obtained by dividing a quartz Y-bar slab into at least two seed bodies elongated in the direction of their Y crystal axes and each having at least two pairs of opposed parallel major longitudinal surfaces disposing <PICT:0827501/III/1> <PICT:0827501/III/2> <PICT:0827501/III/3> the seed bodies with opposite ends overlapping, cutting through the overlapped ends at an angle inclined to one of the pairs of major longitudinal surfaces, re-disposing the seed bodies in end-to-end relation, aligning the atomic planes of the seed bodies by alignment of the major longitudinal surfaces in common planes and uniting the seed bodies by subjecting them to crystal growth. A slab of quartz 10 (Fig. 1), elongated in the direction of the Y crystal axis, is divided by two cuts along planes a and b, and then by three cuts along planes c, to give two seed bodies 20 and 22 (Fig. 3), which are placed with their ends overlapping, their original relative orientation about the crystal axes being maintained.  The overlapping ends are cut at an angle of 60 degrees to the Y axis to give two end surfaces 24 and 26. The bodies 20 and 22 are placed with their end surfaces 24 and 26 together (Fig. 4), and are aligned by a steel bar 28 having an accurate planar surface which is placed against the Z surfaces of the seed bodies.  The bar 28 is secured with wire 31.  The seed bodies are then clamped between two steel plates 34, whereupon the bar 28 is removed, and subjected to crystal growth.  Growth takes place on the Z surfaces to produce a crystal from which extra-length seed crystals may be cut.  Specifications 761,643, 807,304 and 827,502 are referred to.
