Title: Improvements in high grade wood rosin and process of producing same
IPC: C09F1/00
Filed: 1926-04-19
Abstract: 253,082. Hercules Powder Co., (Assignees of Kaiser, H. E., and Hancock, R. S.). June 5, 1925, [Convention date]. Soaps, materials for making. High grade rosins suitable for making rosin soaps are obtained from low grade wood-rosins by dissolving them in gasoline or like solvent and removing colouring bodies by means of furfural. In a preferred procedure, the mixture of rosin, gasoline, and furfural is heated to obtain a homogeneous solution, which is then cooled to about 60‹ F., which throws down furfural carrying most of the colouring matter, and some rosin. After gravity separation, the remaining solution is mixed with additional furfural, and the whole cooled down to about 10‹ F., and gravity separated. The upper layer on distillation yields a purified high grade resin, the gasoline and furfural being reused. The lower layers of the separations may then be mixed, and the furfural distilled off for re-use, leaving a low-grade rosin, which may be treated with gasoline to give on distillation a medium-grade gasoline-soluble rosin. Other lowboiling mineral oil distillates or even light lubricating distillates may be effected centrifugally or otherwise.

Screwing. - In a screwing machine wherein the die-head is opened by the sliding saddle at a predetermined point of its travel, lost motion is provided between a spring-controlled releasable mem ber and the lever for opening the head so as to allow the member to gain momentum before acting on the lever and thus open the head suddenly irrespective of the pressure of the work on the dies. The die-head a is controlled by a lever b, Fig. 2, pivoted at c and having a lost motion connection with a sliding member f comprising a slot h in the latter and a pin on the lever. The member f is acted upon by a tens on spring f<1> but is retained in the cutting position by a vertical plunger l having a projection m engaging a step on the member. When the desired length of thread has been cut an adjustable dog w, Fig. 1, on a stationary rod t is engaged by the saddle u and is moved with the later, causing a lever r to be rocked against the pressure of a spring v. The lever r is connected by a shaft q, Fig. 2, to an arm p which depresses the plunger l and allows the member f to be shot forward by the spring f', the slot h allowing the member to gain momentum before rocking the lever b. On the return movement the saddle engages an adjustable stop on a rod j, Fig. 2, attached to the member f which is thus moved to rook the lever b and re-set the die-head, a ramp o on the member f depressing the plunger l and allowing the projection m to hold it again in the set position.

Title: Improvements in aircraft supporting surfaces
IPC: B64C5/08
Filed: 1942-07-24
Abstract: 576,125. Controlling aircraft. PHILLIPS & POWIS AIRCRAFT, Ltd., and HEAL, L. C. July 24, 1942, No. 10399. [Class 4] An aircraft wing tip is pivoted about a fore- and-aft axis so as to be turnable upwards or downwards into a vertical position, and split flaps at' the trailing edges of the tip portions are independently or differentially operable while the tip portions are in their vertical position. The tips may be movable simultaneously with retractable landing gear. Fig. 1 shows a plan of a swept-back wing having a tip portion 21 which is normally locked in line with the wing but can be turned about a hinge 22 into a vertical plane. Control surfaces 23' are provided' on the main part of the wing. The rear edge of the tip mounts a split flap 24, the flaps on the two sides of the machine being operable independently for manoeuvring the aircraft. Owing to the hinge 26 of each split flap being rearwardly inclined when the tip is in the vertical position, any opening of the flap results not only in an increased drag but also introduces a downward force on the wing. When the main wing is at a dihedral angle, the wing tip may be turned upwards into a position perpendicular to it. Fig. 7 shows hydraulic means for simultaneously raising the wing tip 21 and lowering a retractable undercarriage for which purpose they are respectively connected to pistons 32, 29 working in a cylinder 32 divided by a partition 28 and having ports 38, 39, 40. A single control valve may effect the movement and locking of the pistons or separate valves may be used. The tips 21 and undercarriage may be independently movable. The invention is particularly applicable to a tail-less aircraft, elevators and flaps being provided on the main part of the wing and the adjustable surfaces on the tips acting as ailerons during normal flight.
