Abstract: 28,077. Mallinson, C. Dec. 13. [Cognate Applications, 1592/12 and 3406/12.] Roller mills.-Apparatus for milling or working butter, margarine, and other oleaginous substances consists of two or more three-roll mills with intermediate endless conveyers, the upper roll C, Fig. 1, of each mill being placed with its axle approximately equi-distant between the lower rolls A, B, and the axle of the roll B arranged somewhat lower than the axle of the roll A, so that the substance issuing from between the rolls A, C gravitates between the rolls A, B. The endless carriers H, I consist of chains of pivoted links J, Fig. 5, carrying boards or plates L, which overlap one another while passing between the driving-wheels but separate as they pass round the wheels and so help to discharge the material. An endless band of heavy flax cloth, &c. is placed on the outer surface of the stepped carrier, to prevent any margarine from passing between the plates, but allowing water to percolate through. A pair of converging side walls Q are arranged beneath the rollers to direct the material on to the carriers. A spray of cold or salted water is directed on the carriers from a pipe O to prevent the material from adhering to the rolls or boards. The rolls are driven through belt and bevel gearing from a central driving-shaft.

Indigoid dyes are obtained by condensing an isatin-a-halogenide or derivative thereof with a derivative of 1:8-diaminonaphthalene in which the nitrogen atoms form part of a third sixmembered ring. Products are specified from: -isatin chloride and perimidine, 5:7-dibromisatin chloride and 2-methylperimidine; isatin chloride and p-dimethylaminophenylperimidine; isatin chloride or 5-bromisatin chloride and dihydroperimidone-2, isatin chloride, 5: 7-dibromisatin chloride, or 5-nitroisatin chloride, and the thiourea of 1:8-diaminonaphthalene; a- or #-naphthisatin-achlorides are also specified as parent materials. The above-specified products dye various shades of blue from a vat. Other dves are obtained by halogenizing the above-described products; thus the first-mentioned product above, on treatment with chlorine in presence of glacial acetic acid and sodium acetate, gives a chlorinated dehydro compound, which on reduction gives a chlorinated dye.

Granted: 1913-02-03
Abstract: 2729. Hooley, T. Feb. 2. Embossing.-A press for blocking in gold and other metallic leaf is so constructed that, after the die has been greased and the gold leaf applied by bringing the upper sheet of a pile of gold leaf into contact with the die, the die either remains stationary and the bed is forced into contact with it, or the die is moved only in a direction perpendicular to the plane of its surface into contact with the work. As applied to a hand-operated press, a heated die 15 is mounted stationarily in the upper part of the press frame, and the work-table 9 is adjustable horizontally on tracks 8 on a bed 7, which can move in vertical guides and is raised when desired by a cam lever 13, the bed returning by gravity to the position shown in Fig. 2 when the lever is released. Attached to the bed 7 by nuts and slots 17 is a bracket 16 with a bent upper end to which is pivoted a table 19 for receiving a pile of gold leaf. This pile is formed by cutting off the bound edge of an ordinary book of gold leaf, and gauges 22 assist to hold the book in the proper position, paste also being used to assist in holding the book to the table 19. An adjustable greasing- roller 23 on the work-table 9 is first moved over the die 15. The table 19 is then moved from the position shown by full lines, Fig. 3, to the position shown by dotted lines, and the bed 7 is raised to cause the gold leaf to contact with the die. The table 19 is then returned to the full-line position, the work is placed on the table 9, and the table is again raised to effect the blocking operation. The table 19 may be mounted on a spring-pressed floor when the press is power-operated. The table 19 may be mounted to slide on straight or curved rails. The die may be moved to emboss the work after being supplied with leaf, and in this case the die is moved on to the pile of leaf.
