Filed: 1949-01-19
Abstract: 685,606. Liquid fuel burners. BRITISH THERMOSTAT CO., Ltd. Nov. 24, 1949 [Jan. 19, 1949], No. 1521/49. Class 75(i) A wickless liquid fuel burner 1 of the form such as is described in Specification 656,707, wherein the degree of heat is controlled by varying the fuel level in the vaporizing trough, is supported on a horizontal member 2 which is pivotally mounted at one end, and slides over a cam edge of a slot, said edge determining the level of the burner. The member 2 which serves as a conduit terminates in a rotary plug 3 which co-operates with a socket part to form a swivelling gland through which the fuel is fed from a reservoir, the fuel level in the latter corresponding to that in the vaporizing trough of the burner. When the conduit 2 is at the end 7 of a slot 4 formed in a fixed, curved plate 5, i.e. when the burner is in its inoperative position in which it can be lit, the fuel level in the trough provides a maximum surface area. On moving the burner towards its operative position the conduit, which is longitudinally flexible, rides up a curved part 8 of the slot 4 to enter a level part 6 thereof, so that the fuel level in the trough drops and the rate of vaporization decreases. If left in this position the burner would go out, but normally it is moved into its operative position without stopping, the conduit sliding down a curved part 10 into the end 11. of the slot 4 and then springing up into a recess 15, so that a seating 16 formed around the opening 12 of the burner cone' 13 engages the base of a flue 14. In this position the burner is at a slightly higher level than when in its inoperative position. Instead of a slot the plate 5 may be provided with a single cam edge shaped like the upper or lower edge of the slot 4 according to whether it is positioned above or below the conduit; if positioned below, no provision would be made for positive engagement between the burner and flue. A vertical sight glass 17 is provided on the conduit 2 in front of the plate 5.

Class 56 A plane or bent glass sheet is cracked throughout its thickness around a closed contour by initiating a crack in the skin of one face by a sudden heating of short duration localized along the closed contour, rapid cooling of that face and then the advancement of the crack by establishing a temperature difference between the two faces, the hotter being the one where the crank was initiated. The shape of the crack may be defined by masks leaving only a narrow portion of the sheet exposed; this is exposed to radiation from an electric heating element. The exposed surface may then be cooled by wiping with a damp cloth. The sheet may then be reversed and the surface having the incipient crack just immersed in a heated liquid bath. Alternatively the sheet need not be reversed but but may be placed on a support with the cracked face uppermost and whole of this face then heated by radiation from an electric heater. The crack may be filled by a thermoplastic resin having the same index of refraction as the glass whereby the crack is substantially invisible.

Title: Improvements relating to thermionic valves or electron discharge tubes particularly for wireless signalling
IPC: H01J9/04
Filed: 1924-01-22
Abstract: 230,226. Levy, L. A. Jan. 22, 1924. Coating.-A method of producing a filament having a coating of active metal emitting electrons at a low temperature, consists in applying to a filament of refractory metal an organic binder and the active metal, either previously reduced, or in the form of a compound, and heating the filament so that the binding agent is wholly or partly eliminated and in some cases reduces the compound to the active met'al which unites with the metal of the filament. Magnesium or an organic reducing agent, such as cellulose acetate and nitrate, Canada balsam, cumar resin, a condensation product of phenol and formaldeyhde, a casein agglutinant, a mixture of oil of rosemary and oil of lavender, or a mixture of any of the agents, may be added to the coating material. The filament may consist of tungsten, molybdenum, platinum-iridium, platinum electroplated with copper or nickel, or of tungsten or molybdenum coated with copper. The compound may be an oxide of thorium or uranium, or a mixture of thoria with ceria or other oxides. In one method thoria is mixed with magnesium powder in equal parts by weight, the mixture heated in dry hydrogen to 1000‹ C., and the resulting powder mixed with cellulose acetate in the proportion of 3 parts by weight of powder to one of acetate. Acetone is added and the solution is applied to the filament. which mav then be heated for a short time at 1700-1800‹ C. in hydrogen before mounting in the bulb. The filament is heated subsequently to an orange temperature for one quarter to halfan-hour so as to reduce thorium in an active state. When using filaments of small diameter it is desirable, in order to reduce the surface tension and prevent the formation of globules, to apply a preliminary coat of shellac before applying the solution, or the surface may be roughened by etching, or alcohol may be added to the solution. In other methods thoria is mixed with a solution of cellulose acetate in acetone, or 3 parts by weight of thoria may be mixed with 4 parts of a dope consisting of 50 parts of Canada balsam, 40 parts of benzene, 5 parts of oil of rosemary, and 5 parts of oil of lavender. In another method thoria is mixed with one half its weight of metallic potassium, and heated to 800‹ C. in a current of hydrogen. The product is washed in absolute alcohol, the resulting powder being metallic thorium, which is then incorporat'ed with an organic binding agent and applied to the filament.
