Abstract: 341,706. Vapour &c. lamp systems. HANOVIA CHEMICAL & MANUFACTURING CO., Chestnut Street, Newark, New Jersey, U.S.A.-(Assignees of Bird, L. F. ; Chestnut Street, Newark, New Jersey, U.S.A.) Jan. 13, 1930, No. 1189. Convention date, Oct. 22, 1929. [Class 38 (iv).] An A.C. mercury vapour or gas lamp has a source of D.C. supply connected in opposition to the D.C. potential existing between the anodes and cathode during operation, so as to lower the power input. It is suggested that the D.C. potential across the are is due to inequality between the halves of the A.C. cycles; thus with an A.C. potential of 100 volts, the D.C. potential across the arc may be 15 volts. The negative of the D.C. source, such as a battery, generator, rectifier, or rectified current of other frequency than that of the arc, is connected with the cathode. As shown, the D.C. supply is provided by rectifiers 18 .. 21 of the copper-copper oxide type forming a bridge, two points of which are connected with a secondary 23 of a transformer 7.

Abstract: 1292756 Jointing by stamping RELIABLE ELECTRIC CO 12 Jan 1971 1372/71 Headings B3A and B3Q  A magazine 10, Fig. 1, in which tubular electrical connectors 11 are supplied to a crimping machine, comprises passages 35 in which the connectors are biased by springs 40, guides for mounting the magazine on a crimping machine 15, Fig. 6, and indexing means 50 for cooperation with the machine to locate the magazine in different positions. The magazine may be moulded in polystyrene, with alternate partitions 26, 27, Fig. 3, of different lengths, providing central openings for springs 40. Each spring acts on two columns of connectors, through a pusher 41. The bottom 23 of the magazine is removed as the magazine is slid on to the crimping machine, with end-flanges 46 on the magazine engaging recesses in guides 70 (60) on the machine. A spring pressed ball (65), Fig. 7 (not shown), in the guide (60) engages recesses 50 in the magazine to locate the latter with a pair of connectors aligned with a recess loading to an anvil-recess 75 in the guide 70. The pair of connectors is moved beneath the anvil by a slide 100, Fig. 8, operated by a pneumatic cylinder 105 and a pivoted plate 109 which has lost-motion connections with the slide and the cylinder. A die 80, Fig. 6, for crimping the connectors against the anvil, is fixed to a lever 95 which is turned about its axis 96 by toggle links 86, 88. Link 86 is extended for operation by a pneumatic cylinder 92 controlled by a valve 120 and a switch. At the end of a crimping stroke, valve 120 is re-set by a micro switch 121 on the lever 95 and operated by a stationary pin 123, so as to retract the die and advance the feed slide 100. The lostmotion between cylinder 105 and plate 109 allows separation of the die and anvil before advance of a second pair of connectors, thus avoiding jamming as the second pair eject the first. A leaf-spring 83 on the guide 70 holds the connectors in a region 81 during the insertion of conductors. The plate 109 and cylinder 105 are spring-returned.
Patent GB-349067-A (GB)
Title: Process of treating saturated hydrocarbons and gaseous mixtures rich in saturated hydrocarbons
IPC: C07C4/02
Filed: 1930-01-14
Abstract: Mixtures containing acetylene, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen are prepared by rapidly passing saturated hydrocarbons, or gases rich in saturated hydrocarbons, with steam and oxygen through a reaction chamber heated to 1300 DEG  C. or more.  The amount of oxygen relative to hydrocarbon is such that substantially the whole of the hydrocarbon is destroyed, and may be 30-45 per cent in the case of methane, 45-50 per cent in the case of ethane, and 60-65 per cent in the case of propane; for normally liquid hydrocarbons n/2 molecular volume of oxygen is used for one gram mol. of hydrocarbon CnH2n+2. The volume of steam should be about half that of the hydrocarbon-oxygen mixture, and the speed of the mixture is such that more than 20,000 volumes of the mixture, without taking the steam into account, are passed per hour per unit volume of reaction chamber.  External heating of the reaction chamber is generally necessary, and this may be effected by burning a part of the hydrocarbon to be treated.  The reaction products may be freed from acetylene and carbon dioxide, together or in turn, e.g. by means of water under pressure, alkaline liquors, washing oil, acetone or charcoal.  The residual gas contains carbon monoxide and hydrogen in proportions permitting the direct synthesis of methanol; a small amount of unconverted hydrocarbon may be present also.
