Title: Improvements in or relating to the Utilisation of Peat.
IPC: C10F5/06
Filed: 1913-05-10
Granted: 1914-08-10
Abstract: 11,133. Rigby, T., and Wetcarbonizing, Ltd. May 10. Heating liquids.-A continuous stream of peat pulp is partly heated by means of vapour obtained from previously heated pulp or from hot effluent water. The vapour may be evolved under reduced pressure or may be carried by a current of gas, such as air, which may become wholly or partly replaced by gas liberated from the peat by heat. A current of gas may be circulated through four similar devices, two of which are fed with hot and two with cold pulp. Fig. 1<a> shows one of these devices. Pulp is fed in at 1 and carried round by a revolving drum 16 separated from a casing 2 by a narrow space through which passes an oppositelymoving air current between inlet and outlet pipes 7, 8. Spring-urged packing-rings bear against the sides of the drum to render the narrow space airtight. The pulp is removed from the drum at a partition 19, and flows into a liquid seal 20. When hot effluent water is utilized, transfer of beat to the gas is effected by means of a gas washer, for instance, one in which the stream of liquid is scattered by paddles. The gas pressure over hot material, whether initially above or below atmospheric, may be lowered in stages, the vapour being mixed with fresh material or passed through surface heat-exchange apparatus. Peat may be fed by a piston 29 into a mixer 30, Fig. 3, for preliminary beating, then treated with steam from nozzles 32, and passed into a second mixer 33 and up a pipe 34 into an elevated vessel 35 whence vapour is removed by a rotary pump 39 to the first mixer 30. The pulp then descends through a pipe 36 bent near its lower end to form a liquid seal. Specifications 18,393/11, 5873/13, and 9392/13, [all in Class 50, Fuel, Manufacture of], are referred to.

Abstract: 13,796. Ogilvie, A. June 14. Measuring-apparatus.-Consists of an airspeed indicator, chiefly for use on aeroplanes &c., in which the wind-pressure received in a tube or through an aperture is transmitted to an indicator having an approximately evenlydivided scale of velocities. The indicator comprises an elastic membrane 1 cemented between rings 2 and secured between the rim of a base 3, and the rim of a ring 4. A frame 6, having a cover 8 and a lower cross-bar 9, extends across the ring 4 and carries a vertical roller 10 and an horizontal roller 14. A cord 15 is secured at one end to the centre of the membrane 1 and passes round the rollers 14, 10, its free end being secured to the latter. The spindle of the roller 10 carries a balanced pointer 12 working over the scale 11; a spring 13 around the roller 10 restores the pointer to zero after a reading. The device for receiving the wind-pressure comprises, for example, a combined Pitot-tube 17 and static pressure tube 21, Fig. 6, the two tubes being connected by flexible tubing &c. to the pipes 19, 26 respectively. The pressure pushes the membrane 1 downwards and rotates the roller 10.
