    Abstract: 341,156. Exhaust silencers. ASCROFT N. and ASCROFT, F., 294, Chorley Road, Westhoughton, Lancashire, and TATE, J. R., 54, All Saints Street, Bolton. Oct. 31, 1929, No. 33078. [Class 7 (ii).] A casing attached to the exhaust pipe e contains a forward chamber a and a rearward chamber b, these chambers communicating by a central transfer pipe c. The gases pass by way of a pipe f to chamber b, thence by way of pipe c to chamber a and then through pipe i to the outlet h. The chambers and pipes are formed integrally. Specifications 20455/03 [Class 122, Steam engines], and 312,943 [Class 7 (ii), Internal-combustion engines, Arrangement &c. of], are referred to.

    Abstract: 278,033. Okill, J., and Tate, J. R. May 17, 1926. Locking-catches; preventing disconnection of pipes from valves.-An interlocking-device be tween a valve or cock and the pipe connection thereto to prevent disconnection of the pipe whilst the valve is open comprises a coupling. nut F; Fig. 1, provided with an overhanging flange f formed with a gap f which, when the valve is open, registers with and engages a stop d on a double-sided sliding locking-frame D movable with the valve spindle B, as shown. In an alternative arrangement a projection f , Fig. 4, on the coupling nut F lies in the path of the rotary valve handle D when the valve is open. In this position also the nut F abuts against a spring-pressed double slider frame g carrying a locking-pin g which is thereby held out of engagement with the disc d of the handle, so that the valve is free to be operated. When, however, the valve is turned to the closed position, a locking recess or hole d is brought into the axial line of the locking pin g . In this position the coupling nut F is free, and when this is un. screwed the springs g project the frame to the right hand, thereby engaging the pin g with the recess d . The valve is consequently locked in its closed position until the coupling is again completed.

    Abstract: 270,173. Robinson & Son, Ltd., T., and Robinson, C. J. Nov. 26, 1926. Sockets.-The cutter spindle of a wood-moulding ma chine is drawn into the socket of the driving spindle up to a boss 15 by a transverse key 13 passing through slots in both spindles and held against the bottom of the slot in the spindle 3 by a nut 10 which is screwed down to a collar 11 engaging the key 13 by means of diametral slots 12. The socket and spindle may, if desired, be tapered, in which case the steadying action of the boss 15 is not needed. A feather engaging slots in the spindle 7 and the collar 11 may be used instead of the slots 12.

Planing.-In order to keep the loading lever 16 for the top feed-rolls 4 approximately level, the. fulcrum of the lever is connected by a chain 17 with the hand-operated sleeve 11 which is carried to adjust the cradle 6 through a chain 9. The two chains are connected to the sleeve 11 in opposite directions. so that the cradle and the lever fulcrum are raised and lowered together.

    Abstract: 190,066. Robinson & Son, Ltd., T., and Robinson, C. J. Feb. 28. 1922. Pneumatic separating.- In apparatus of the kind in which grain is dropped on to a rotating disc 3 and being thrown off centrifugally, is subjected to an upward current of air produced by a fan 9 above the separating chamber, the grain is admitted through an annular opening 17 and falls through the openings between arms 14 which connect the fan blade-disc 10 with the hub 12. The fan-chamber is separated from the falling grain by a circular partition 8 and that partition has inwardly projecting vanes 20 to prevent circular movement in the grain. The fan bearing 15 is supported by a bracket 16 and, except for the position of that bracket, the grain can be led to the opening 17 from any direction.

    Abstract: 154,679. Okill, J., and Tate, J. R. Aug. 28, 1919. Liquid-meters.-A tank for measuring liquid flow is provided with an inlet B, Fig. 1, with controlling- cock b , an outlet C, a floatcontrolled valve E, and a gauge glass F with cock f , the flow during the interval between the closing of the cocks b and f being indicated by a scale f . Means may be provided to open the float valve automatically by the closing of the cock b , and the float valve chamber D may be disposed at the side of the tank and connected to its upper end by an internal or external pipe. In a modification, two tanks A, A', Fig. 5, are employed, the tank A receiving the supply and a pipe M connecting the bottom of the tank A to the top of the tank A . In a further form, when the liquid level falls below the bottom of the gauge glass, a Boat R, Fig. 6, opens a valve P against the action of a spring s and admits liquid through a pipe b .

    Abstract: 117,991. Stafford Coal & Iron Co., and Richmond, J. R. Sept. 8,1917. Potasstum sulphate.-Blast furnace flue-dust is dissolved in water and treated with air to render the iron compounds insoluble. Lime or the like is then added to precipitate magnesia, and the solution is then evaporated to dryness and calcined, the residue being finally redissolved and evaporated to obtain crystals. Ammonium chloride may be obtained by giving the dust a preliminary heating, or ammonia may be recovered when the lime is added. The apparatus described comprises a centrifugal filter 1 in which the dust is treated with a spray of hot water, a liquor tank 2 in which the solution is treated with steam and air, evaporating pots 3 in which the solution is treated with lime and air and finally evaporated to dryness and calcined, a redissolving tank 3 from which the liquor is filtered into a final evaporating pot 5, and evaporators 6, 7 for the mother liquors. Potassium salts are fished out, drained on drainers' 10, and dried in a hydroextractor 8. Alternatively, the dust may be treated in an iron tank with the necessary quantity of water and heated by steam, the subsequent treatment being as above described.
