Title: Improvements in the treatment of keratinous fibres
IPC: D06M11/54
Filed: 1966-05-02
Abstract: Goods containing keratinous fibres are shrinkproofed by treating them in an aqueous bath containing hydrogen peroxide and an acid or the corresponding anhydride (when such anhydride exists), the acid being a monocarboxylic acid having the formula R-COOH in which R is hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1-5 carbon atoms, a dicarboxylic acid having the formula HOOC-R1-COOH in which R1 is a direct bond, a vinylene group or an alkylene group having 2-10 carbon atoms or an aromatic dicarboxylic acid having the formula Ar-(COOH)2 in which Ar is an aromatic group having 6-12 carbon atoms and then treating them in a second aqueous bath containing a bisulphite or metabisulphite. The keratinous fibres may be wool or goat or camel hair and may be in the form of raw fibre, yarn, woven or knitted fabric or textiles, e.g. sweaters or hosiery.  The goods may first be washed in an aqueous medium containing soap, ammonium hydroxide or sodium carbonate at 80 DEG -140 DEG F for 5-45 minutes at a bath-to-goods ratio of 20:1, rinsed and optionally dried.  They may then be placed in an aqueous solution containing 0.1-1.5% by weight of hydrogen peroxide, a small amount of an ammonium base, e.g. ammonium hydroxide, monoethanolamine, triethanolamine or pyridine and 0.1-0.3% by weight of a non-ionic wetting agent, e.g. an alkyl aryl polyether alcohol.  The acid or anhydride, e.g. acetic anhydride or formic or oxalic acid or maleic, phthalic, isophthalic or sebacic acid or their anhydrides, may then be added in 2 to 6 approximately equal proportions at intervals ranging from 3-8 minutes while agitating the bath.  The goods may then be rinsed for 30-60 minutes, optionally dried and then treated in the aqueous bath containing 0.2-2% by weight of the bisulphite or metabisulphite, e.g. sodium, potassium, lithium, rubidium, caesium, calcium or barium bisulphite or sodium metabisulphite, with agitation for 25-35 minutes at 80 DEG -140 DEG F, rinsed and dried. In Example II hosiery containing 90% by weight of wool and 10% by weight of nylon is treated.

[Class 40 (iv).] An acoustic diaphragm comprising an organic membrane 10 of pure parchment, paper, skin, wood, &c., has a magnetic armature 11 secured thereto by cathodical impact. The diaphragm is first moistened and secured to a frame 12 by ring 14 and screws 14a. The diaphragm becomes taut when dry and the armature is then deposited thereon by the known cathode sputtering process. The parts of the diaphragm not to be covered are shielded by material, such as glass or mica, and the diaphragm is cooled during the sputtering process. The cathode is of chemically pure iron or other magnetic material. The armature when produced is immediately protected against oxidation by a coating of collodion &c. A thin and elastic film of a non-magnetic metal, such as gold or silver, is also preferably secured by cathodical impact on the opposite side of the membrane to the armature. In a modification, a plurality of armatures are deposited on a membrane, each armature co-operating with an electromagnet, the electromagnets being preferably connected in series.

Casting-machines; metal-pouring; mould and core materials.-In a continuous casting machine for metal rods, tubes, &c., preferably of the kind in which means are provided for maintaining the required temperature of the metal at various parts, the rate of feed of metal from the crucible C', or the rate of withdrawal of the finished bar &c. by the rolls B2 B3 is controlled by electrical or pneumatic means depending on the level of the metal in the casing A. This casing has a smooth or highly polished interior, and may be tapered as shown and flared outwardly at the top to receive lubricant, and also may have a V-notch to provide an overflow for surplus metal. The metal is preferably supplied through vents near the outer edge of the tubular casing A, the upper portion of which may be heated by gas burners. The lower portion is surrounded by a water-jacket A1 with a circulating-sleeve A7, and below this the water may be in direct contact with the rod. In starting, a rod B with a notch B1 supports the solidifying column of metal. In the electrical controlling-device, a solenoid C4 may close the valve C2 when contact is made between the end of a wire C5 and the surface of the metal. In the pneumatic control, a cylinder connected to exhausting-apparatus operates the valve when the mouth of an inlet pipe is closed by the rising metal.

Filed: 1938-07-07
Abstract: 506,232. Casting-machines; casting processes. BAILLOT, A. July 7, 1938, No. 20101. [Class 83 (i)] Castings, extracting.-In apparatus for casting hollow bodies in a metal mould without a core, the mould is mounted in a ring provided with trunnions to permit the inverting of the mould when the solidification of the peripheral zone has reached the desired thickness, the trunnions being mounted in cheeks to form a carriage and the plant comprising a plurality of such mould-carrying carriages disposed so as to travel over a track. Each mould 1 is mounted in trunnions 81, 82, Fig. 10, carried by cheeks 7 and 8 supported on rails 10 by means of rollers 9. The trunnion 81 carries at its end a toothed sector 12 by which the mould may be rotated but which is normally held stationary by a pawl 13. The trunnion also carries a pinion wheel 16 meshing with a rack formed at the end of a dashpot piston. A number of moulds are carried by the rollers 9 on an endless track comprising two straight portions AA-BB and CC-DD joined by semicircular portions, Fig. 7. At the end AA of the straight portion AA-BB, the mould carriages are kept stationary on an inclined portion of the track by abutments 61, Fig. 16, which may be released,by hand or by the action of pushers 24 upon a roller 73 at the end of a lever 70. The pushers, which are mounted on an endless chain 23 passing over pulleys 27, 31 also serve to convey the mould carriages along the remainder of the track AA-BB. In operation, molten metal is poured into a mould held stationary by a stop 61 at the position K-K. The carriage is then released and is carried along to the position F-F where a stop 40 lifts the pawl 13 and allows the mould to tip up, under the control of the dashpot device, so that the unsolidified molten metal is discharged into a vessel 41. At the position G-G a stop 42 moves a retaining finger 2 at the top of the mould thus allowing the discharge of the casting. At the position H-H a stop 58 raises the pawl 13 and a rack 59 engages the sector 12 and turns the mould into upright position again. If a casting having a very smooth interior is required, the mould is mounted so as to be rotated slowly about its vertical axis during the solidifying stage or during or after the inversion of the mould, each mould being rotated from a separate motor mounted on the mould carriage.
