Patent GB-190316995-A (GB)
Title: The Manufacture of New Azo Dyestuffs and of Products to be used in the said Manufacture.
Inventor: JOHNSON JAMES YATE
Filed: 1903-08-04
Granted: 1904-05-26
Abstract: 16,995. Johnson, J. Y., [Badische Anilin & Soda Fabrik]. Aug. 4. 2 : 4-Dichlor-1-naphthylamine sulphonic acid is obtained by sulphonating the acetyl compound of the dichlornaphthylamine with fuming sulphuric acid, pouring the mass into water, and boiling to separate the acetyl group. Its sodium salt crystallizes in colourless leaflets, and the zinc ani magnesium salts in long needles. Diazo-2 : 4-dichlornaphthylamine sulphonic acid is produced by diazotizing the sulphonic acid described above. It gives with an alkaline solution of resorcinol a yellowish-red azo colouring-matter, and with #-naphthol a red dye. Diazohydroxychlornaphthylamine sulphonic acid. -On heating the dichlor derivative described above with alkali acetate or carbonate, magnesia, chalk, or the like, or by allowing its aqueous solution to stand, a new body, in which one of the chlorine atoms is probably replaced by a hydroxy group is formed. This body may form an internal anhydride. It gives with alkaline resorcinol a deep violet colouring - matter, and a blue dye with #-naphthol. It is also formed by treating an aqueous suspension of dichlornaphthylamine sulphonic acid with sodium nitrite, and then diazotizing in the absence of mineral acids. Dyes, artificial.-The hydroxychlorodiazo compound described above yields with #-naphthol, in caustic soda solution, a dye, dissolving in water to a brilliant blue solution, which dyes wool, from the acid bath, brown-violet shades. Upon treatment with potassium bichromate or a mixture of a chromate and a chromium salt, the dyeings turn to deep blue-black. They are fast against the action of washing, milling, potting, and light. The #-naphthol may be replaced by other components, such as 2 : 7- or 1 : 5-dihydrosynaphthalene, and, according to the Provisional Specification, by alpha-naphthol. Colouring-matters are also produced by using resorcinol as described above. These colouring-matters may be regarded as derivatives of 2-hydroxy-1-azo-naphthalene.

Title: Improvements in or relating to Hospital and like Tables and Cabinets and other Furniture.
Inventor: CAMPBELL WILLIAM MITCHELL
Filed: 1903-12-28
Granted: 1904-02-18
Abstract: 28,438. Campbell, W. M. Dec. 28. Casting.-A combined table and cabinet, for use in hospitals, is composed of four tubular uprights A connected to tubular cross - bars B by means of union pieces C which are cast round the uprights and the ends of the bars. The union pieces may support metal trays, but, to form cupboards &c., the edges of the trays H enter slits in the cross-tubes, and vertical sides I abut against the uprights A. Holes i may be bored in the sides I so that, in casting the union pieces, metal may flow through the holes. In a modified construction, which may also be employed in connection with lavatory and typewriter stands and metallic furniture, the uprights are perforated with holes to receive the cross-tubes and with holes through which molten metal may be poured. To prevent the metal from flowing too far, the tubes are plugged.
