Title: Improvements in Pulp Agitators.
Inventor: PATERSON WILLIAM CAMPBELL
IPC: C22B3/02
Filed: 1909-04-26
Granted: 1909-10-07
Abstract: 9844. Paterson, W. C. April 26. Chambers with obstructions. - Relates to apparatus for agitating pulp, such as ore-pulp, especially in cyanide processes, of the type in which the pulp is circulated through a funnelshaped tank and up a central pipe therein. Means are provided for decanting or removing the solution obtained, and for separately removing the solid matter. In addition, a speciallyconstructed deflector is fitted in the upper end of the tank. The material is drawn from the tank 5 by a pump 27 through pipes 32, 34, 35, and is returned to the tank by a pipe 29 projecting upwards into the central pipe 13. The material in the bottom of the tank is also drawn up the pipe 13 through holes 44. At the top of the pipe 13 is a conical disk 14, provided with channels down which the material runs on to a second disk 17, provided with concentric riffles 20 and attached to the walls of the tank 5. Air can be introduced by a pipe A attached to the pipe 34. When the operation is completed, the pulp is allowed to settle, and the liquid is drawn off through the pipes 32, 34 and a valve 38. The tank is filled by means of the pump 27 through a valve 26. Solid matters are drawn off by the pump 27 through pipes 21, 24, 40. Cleansing - liquid can be circulated through the pipes 39, 24, 21, the tank and the pipes 32, 34, 25.

Title: Improvements in and relating to Carburetted Air Stoves and Lamps.
Inventor: DEPREZ OSCAR
IPC: C10J1/10
Filed: 1910-01-25
Granted: 1910-10-06
Abstract: 1910. Deprez, O., and Richir, A. Jan. 25. Carburetted-air lamps.-In a carburetted-air stove or lamp, air is passed through a carburetting-mass deriving its liquid from a larger absorbent mass, and the burner and the tube supplying it with gas are vertically adjustable relatively to the carburettor. In the form shown, air enters through holes 12 in the dome 29 and passes through a carburettor 4 containing threads of capillary material 13 between annular supports 14, 15, the threads 13 being continued down through perforated tubes 21 placed in a saturated absorbent mass 20. The carburetted-air passes through holes 5 in the burner tube 3 and through a nozzle 24 to the burner 1. The burner 1 and tube 3 are vertically adjustable by means of a rack 8, slipping being prevented by friction on the face of the pinion 7 caused by a spring 30. The carburettor receives heat from the burner and also from a metal ring 27 through rods 26 and a disk 22. To extinguish the apparatus, the tube 3 is raised until the holes 5 are above the threads 13, the disk 22 being at the same time raised by projections 23 so as to close the air inlet. Air is admitted to the burner through holes 28, and, in the case of a stove, through a second series of holes 31 in the upper part of the chimney 2, the air being heated by passing through a jacket 32. In an incandescent lamp, the ring 27 may be omitted.
