Title: Improvements in the Manufacture of Compounds of the Anthraquinone Series.
Inventor: JOHNSON JAMES YATE
Filed: 1912-04-10
Granted: 1913-03-13
Abstract: 8509. Johnson, J. Y., [Badische Anilin & Soda Fabrik]. April 10. Anthraquinone derivatives and dyes; anthraquinoneacridones.-Products, which are either vat dyes or parent materials therefor, are obtained by oxidizing 1-phenylaminoanthraquinone or homologues or derivatives thereof, in the aryl residue of which the p-position to the -NH-group is free; the resulting products are diphenyl derivatives. When the anthraquinone residue, or the aryl residue, of the parent materials contains a carboxy group in o-position to the -NH-group, the products are afterwards treated with condensing-agents, giving anthraquinoneacridones. Similar products are obtained by oxidizing anthraquinoneacridones. According to examples:-a violet vat dye is obtained from 1-anilidoanthraquinone; intermediate products are obtained from 1- anthraniloanthraquinone, 1 - anilidoanthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid, 1-u-toluidoanthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid, and 1-m-chloranilidoanthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid, which are then converted by means of concentrated sulphuric acid into violet-brown to brown-red vat dyes; the acridone from 1-anilidoanthraquinone-2- carboxylic acid is oxidized to give a violetbrown vat dye; the oxidizing-agent used in the examples is manganese dioxide in sulphuric acid solution. Specification 12,142/10 is referred to. 1 - m - Chloranilidoanthraquinone - 2 - carboxylic acid is obtained from 1 - chloranthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid and m-chloraniline.

Patent GB-191212858-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in and relating to Pneumatic Brakes.
Inventor: CHAPSAL FRANCOIS JULES
IPC: B60T17/10
Filed: 1912-05-31
Granted: 1913-04-17
Abstract: 12,858. Chapsal, F. J., and Saillot, A. L. E. May 31. [Addition to 12,780/12.] Fluid - pressure.-The accelerator for pneumatic brakes described in the parent Specification is modified for use with differential - pressure brakes of the Wenger or Lipkowski types, or with vacuum brakes of the Clayton type, and is arranged to replace the distributing-valves of these brakes. Fig. 1 shows the application to a brake of the Wenger type. The accelerator is connected to the chamber E<2> at one side of the brake piston by a pipe 43, and with the chamber E' at the other side of the piston by a pipe 44 and a piston valve 48, 49. The parts are shown in the release position, the chamber E<2> being charged from the train-pipe 19 by way of the valve 22, port 24, valve 9, and pipe 43, and the chamber E' by ports 25, 18, past the cup-leather of piston 48, and pipe 44. When the train-pipe pressure is reduced, the diaphragms 5, 6 descend, thus opening the valve 45 to vent the train-pipe into the chamber 4, and opening the valve 16 to vent the chamber G above the piston 48. This piston then rises and opens the valve 49 to vent the chamber E' by the pipe 44 and port 50, thus applying the brakes. The port 50 may be fitted with a cock for regulating the time taken to vent the chamber E<1>, and therefore the time for obtaining the full braking action corresponding to the reduction made in train-pipe pressure. When the train-pipe is recharged, the diaphragm 5 raises the valve' 9 and the chamber E<2> equalizes into the chamber E<1> past the piston 48, thus releasing the brakes. The chamber 4 exhausts past a valve 45<1> and through a port 47. Instead of allowing the chambers E', E<2> to equalize, a separate reservoir may be provided for recharging the chamber E<1> for releasing the brake. Fig. 2 shows the application to a Lipkowski brake provided with a reducer K, which is connected with the valve apparatus 48, 49 by a pipe 55. When train-pipe pressure is reduced, the piston 48 is raised as before and first raises a valve 52 to vent the reducer K by the pipe 55 and ports 54, 53, thus bringing the brake shoes into contact with the wheels. The piston 48 afterwards raises the valve 49 and vents the chamber E' to complete the application of the brakes. During release, the chamber E<2> equalizes into both chambers E', K. Fig. 3 shows the application to a Clayton vacuum brake, the chambers E<1>, E<2>, below and above the brake piston, being connected with the accelerator by pipes 44, 43 respectively, as shown. When air is admitted to the train-pipe 19 to apply the brakes, the diaphragm 5 opens valves 10, 28, which respectively allow air to pass from the chamber 4 to the train-pipe, and by ports 29, 24, 25, 18 to the chamber E<1>. When the vacuum is restored in the train-pipe for release, the diaphragm 6 opens the valve 16, allowing the chambers E<1>, E<2> to equalize.

Filed: 1912-12-13
Granted: 1913-12-15
Abstract: 28,722. Conrady, A. E., and Hamburger, A. Dec. 13. Three-colour and like systems. - In cameras . with reflector filters for colour photography, the reflector C D, Fig. 1<a>, is subjected to distortion by the application of pressure at different points around the edges in order to correct for the unequal distortion in the transmitted image when a plane reflector is used. The mirror is mounted in a U-frame 0, Fig. 3, upon adjustable supporting-points under the pressure of strong springs opposite to them, and the frame has several threaded holes P, into which spring- faced pressure screws may be inserted where required. In order to adjust the tilt of the focusing-screen V, Fig. 4, for lenses of different focal length, one end of a long lever U is adjusted by a slope T on the camera extension S, the other end of the lever bearing against the focusing-screen V, which is pivotally mounted and held against the lever U by the spring W. In order to avoid the use of large reflectors for large-sized plates, a small reflector is used, and extension boxes with plate-holders at the ends are fitted to the camera. To equalize the exposure value of the reflected and transmitted light the reflector is sufficiently silvered and colour screens may be used between the reflector and the plates.
