The British Thomson-Houston Company, Limited.Improvements in and relating to electron discharge devices.Abstract.—A device is described with means for integrating high frequency wave trains into impulses or waves of

lower frequency, tuning both for group frequency as well as wave frequency. A condenser furnished with a leakage path ■across its terminals is connected to the grid of the valve ; its potential is altered and the leakage path is such that in the intervals between successive trains of oscillations there is just time for the grid to recover its normal potential.

The claims are :—I. A wireless signalling system including an electron discharge device having connected to its grid or control

electrode a condenser which has a leakage path connected across its terminals, for the purpose specified.2. A wireless signalling system including an electron discharge device having an electron emitting cathode, a

co-operating anode and a grid for controlling the electron discharge, a condenser connected in circuit, with the grid, and a high resistance to shunt the condenser.

3. A receiver for wireless signals provided with a grid leak comprising a high resistance preferably in series with a source of el ctromotive force, connecting the plates of a condense]' included in the grid circuit, of a three-electrode electron discharge device.

4. The improved apparatus for wireless signalling purposes, constructed and operating substantially as describedwith reference to the drawing.

No. 2 096 o f November 6, 1924.Fritz Berger.Heating device for liquid fuels.Abstract.—The nature of the invention is described in the claims as follows:—1. A heating device, particularly for heavy fuel, of the kind in which the fuel is forced by means of pressure through

a member, coiled tube or the like forming the carburettor, characterized by a cap or hood arranged above the carburettor and centrally over the nozzle of the latter, the said cap being provided near its border with openings for the exit of the gas and breaks-up the jet of flamo and separates the latter into a number of individual flames which do not containany soot.

2. A heating device as claimed in claim 1, in which the cap or hood is closed-up at the bottom with the exceptionof an opening for the admission of the flame.

3. A heating device as claimed in claim 1, in which a ring (11) is arranged just underneath the rim of the cap in order to prevent the flame form leaping out underneath the rim of the cap in case of lateral gusts of wind.

4. A heating device as claimed in claim 1, in which the upper part of the cap is provided with a number of circularly = arranged small holes (19) in order to form ignition flames which ignite the gases passing out of the openings (18) near the border of the cap during the first few seconds of the operation of the device.

5. A heating device as claimed in claim 3, in which flanges (13) extend downwardly from the ring (11) and serve for protecting the flame in case of storm.

6. A heating device as claimed in claim 1, in which the screw for closing-up the fuel filling opening of the fuel receptacle is constructed and acts as a valve for regulating the pressure in the said receptacle.

7. A heating device, particularly for heavy fuels constructed, arranged, and adapted to operate substantially as herein described with reference to the example illustrated by the accompanying drawings for the purpose specified.

THE following Specifications have been accepted :—-N o. 2,100 o f November 28, 1924.

William Woodsend Bagguley and Qeorge William Render.A means of loading and discharging ships or the like of cargo of grain or other granulated substance or liquids. Abstract.—This invention relates to apparatus for loading and discharging and conveying granulated substances,

e.g., grain or slack, or liquids either from vessels lying at the wharf or from outlying vessels to the shore, or for conveying grain direct from the thresher to the granary for the conveyance and distribution of slack along great distances to blast furnaces, and the like, thus expediting the process and thereby obtaining a great saving of cost. The apparatus is of the type wherein the material to be conveyed is carried by a current of air. The invention consists as to one part in imparting to such air under pressure a rotary or helical motion. The compressed air is passed through a suitable feed tube from the engine room or the deck or other convenient part of the ship, or from the thresher or any other site from which the material is to be conveyed. The material is fed into a revolving feeding box superimposed upon a suitable valve body with suitable valves therein provided for the purpose, the feeding box being driven by any suitable power. The material passes through the valves and out at the lower end of the valve body into the hopper, when it gets into


I

contact with the compressed air and is driven through a discharge tube communicating with the compressed air tube and carried away to any distance through a flexible or other tube connected to the discharge tube. The compressed air tube has a rifled-shaped or helical blade or vane therein so as, as stated, to impart to the air in the inlet tube and feeding box a rotary or helical motion.

A cut-off plate is provided at the lower end of the valves so as to prevent any direct communication between the valves and the feed-box, thus preventing any escape of the compressed air.

The claims are :—1. In apparatus of the type described for loading, discharging, and conveying, the use of compressed air to which

a rotary or helical motion has been imparted.2. Apparatus as claimed in claim 1, characterized by the provision of a compressed air inlet tube having a rifled-

shaped or helical blade or blades therein and communicating with a tube for the discharging or conveying of the material.3. Apparatus as claimed in claim 1, characterized by the provision of a valve body with suitable valves.4. Apparatus as claimed in claim 2, characterized by the provision of a feeding-box superimposed on said valve

body and communicating with the valves.5. Apparatus as claimed in claim 2, characterized by the provision of a cut-off plate with an opening

to the treatment of limed pelts for the purpose of affecting the conversion of the lime salt and the swelling of the hide or pelt. According to the present invention a solution made by previously fermenting vegetable seeds either in water or a solution containing enzymic activator and in conjunction with a sodium salt of a fatty acid, is supplied to the hides orpelts to be treated.

In carrying out the invention 500 lb. rape seed or soya- bean meal is placed in a vat of about 1,000 gallons capacity with water at a temperature of 95° F to 97° F. 30 lb. to 50 lb. sulphonated oleic acid or sulphonated caster oil is added together with 1 lb. to 2 lb. manganese borate, zinc sulphate, or other activator. The mixture is allowed to digest for several days until the fermentation has ceased, when the liquid portion of the infusion is separated.

After washing free from superfluity of calcium salts, the goods to be prepared for tanning are treated either in a vat, paddle-wheel, or drum with a sufficient amount of the prepared infusion, and are immersed for a sufficient length of time to convert the whole of the calcium salts from the caustic alkaline condition to the neutral state, and the pelt has become slightly swollen with the organic acids present in the infusion.

The claims are :—1. The preparation of the pelt for tanning by the employment of a previously fermented infusion of vegetable

seeds.2. A process preparatory to tanning for the purpose of treating hides or skins in a solution pre[»ared by previously

fermenting vegetable seeds in water in conjunction with a soda or potash salt and a vegetable organic acid.3. The employment of a natural organic acid produced by the fermentation of vegetable seeds in conjunction

with sulpholeates for the purpose of removing lime from skins preparatory to tanning ; the tanning process consisting of the employment of a previously digested infusion of vegetable seed meal with sulpholeates or sulphorieinate with or without an enzymic activator in conjunction with a vegetable or mineral tanning material in the process of tanning leather.

4. The process which consists in treating hides, skins, and the like in a pre-fermented infusion as hereinbefore described with the addition of tanning material.

5. The process which consists in preparing hides, skins, and the like for tanning as hereinbefore described and simultaneously tanning them.

No. 2,123 of February 25, 1925 (Date applied for under Section 50 of the Ordinance, April 8, 1924.)Harry William ammo > id.Process for the coagulation of rubber latex.Abstract.—The inventor states :—In carrying my invention into effect, I take the fresh latex from the trees and mix this with a saccharine solution

the aggregate being subsequently boiled until coagulation takes place after which the coagulum is left in clean water to cool off before going to the washing mills.

The process of boiling effectually separates the mother liquor or albuminous matter from the latex proper, and the latex proper is reinforced with the saccharine solution with which it forms a perfect chemical combination. The result is a much tougher and purer rubber and one having a greater tensile strength, improved ageing qualities, and more rapid vulcanizing qualities than is the ease with rubber produced with an acid coagulation which is the general practice hitherto adopted.

Moreover, there is a complete absence of mould, rust, or tackiness in the improved rubber.It will, of course, be understood that the saccharine employed may be the ordinary saccharine of commerce or may

be produced in any suitable or desired manner, but I prefer saccharine obtained from cane sugar molasses which are reduced to a specific gravity of • 1008 at 60° F, the solution being clarified by means of a precipitant and subsequent filtration and being then boiled two or more times in order to cheek fermentation.

Furthermore, I may vary the proportions of the various ingredients the actual temperatures employed, and the periods of time adopted for the various operations, but as merely one example of a method which has been found to give satisfactory results, I give the following :■—

The aggregate consists of ingredients in the following proportions :—Latex .. . . . . . . 3 gallons (480 oz.)Saccharine solution . . . . . . 13| oz.Added water . . . . . . 72 oz.

The time taken to produce coagulation (in this case by boiling at 213° F by the aid of superheated steam at a pressure of 15 lb. per square inch) was 9 minutes, and 9| lb. of dry rubber were produced.

The coagulum produced may be rolled out to any desired form in the washing mills, or may otherwise be suitably treated.

The claims are:— ,1. A process for the coagulation of rubber latex which comprises the use of saccharine.2. A process for the coagulation of rubber latex which consists in boiling rubber latex with a saccharine solution.3. Improved process for the coagulation of rubber latex, substantially as hereinbefore described.4. Rubber latex coagulated by the aid of saccharine.5. Rubber latex coagulated by the herein described process.No drawings.
