Title: Improvements in or relating to Programme-Controlled Data Exchange Systems
IPC: H04L12/52
Filed: 1968-08-16
Abstract: 1,184,266. Digital transmission systems; automatic exchange systems. SIEMENS A.G. 16 Aug., 1968 [17 Aug., 1967], No. 39185/68. Headings H4K and H4P. A programme-controlled exchange includes a store SP containing the data and programmes for operating the exchange, a transmission control unit UeSt for reception and transmission via feeders TS, and an operation control unit BeS( which processes the programmes. Both UeSt and BeSt are connected to unit SpASt which requisitions the store Sp in accord with demands from them and are connected to a programme requisitioning unit PrASt which controls the sequence of processing of the programmes: each programme lies in a certain priority class, each class being processed in turn and the programmes within each class are processed in the order of arrival of programme demands. If UeSt and BeSt are simultaneously demanding access to Sp, SpASt allots the next store cycle to UeSt which is thereupon connected to Sp for the duration of that cycle via input and output elements individually allotted to it. The operation control unit may comprise two units a and b, unit a processing high-urgency short programmes without any interruption of the selected programme and unit b normal programmes which may be interrupted. If a programme is to be interrupted by one of higher priority its instantaneous state is stored in Sp.

Abstract: 1351310 Carrying conductors through partitions ITW-ATECO GmbH 26 Aug 1971 [29 Aug 1970] 40124/71 Heading H2E A device for clamping a cable passing through an aperture in a wall comprises two interengaging portions each with a through-bore in which the cable lies, the bores being eccentrically positioned and the portions being rotatable relative to each other, and means for preventing the portions from returning from their relatively rotated positions. The portions 2, 4 are made of resilient plastics with circular crosssection bores 10, 12 and engage each other over a plane 14, with the portion 2 being fixed in the aperture (6) of a wall (8) and the portion 4 being rotatably mounted on the portion 2. The axis of rotation is normal to the plane 14 and the centres of the bores 10, 12 lie at equal distances from the axis, the distance being less than the radius of the bores, so that in one position the bores are wholly coincident but as the portion 4 is rotated the bores partly obscure each other to effect a clamping on the cable (30) therein. The portion 2 comprises a cylindrical shell 34 which is retained around a cylindrical surface 36 on the portion 2 by noses 38 which engage shoulders (40) at the end of the surface 36. Ratchet teeth (50, Fig. 4, not shown) on the surface 36 engage resiliently mounted complementary teeth (52) on the shell 34 to allow rotation to effect clamping but prevent return rotation unless the teeth are manually disengaged. A flange 68 secures the portion 2 against one side of the wall and projections 70 engage in the wall apertures to prevent lateral displacement and rotation of the portion 2, inclined portions (74, Fig. 7, not shown) of resilient arms (72) anchoring against the other side of the wall.

Title: Transfer devices for indexing workpieces
IPC: B21D43/05
Filed: 1971-08-27
Abstract: 1339065 Feeding workpieces B J WALLIS 27 Aug 1971 [28 Aug 1970] 40252/71 Heading B3W In a device for indexing a workpiece between stations of a press-mounted die, finger bars 14, 14<SP>1</SP> are shifted along opposed rectangular paths by cam follower rollers 40, 42 riding in a single track 28 in a cam-plate 26 which is rotatable about a centre 30. Radial motion of the cam followers 40, 42 relative to centre 30 causes longitudinal and transverse movement respectively of the finger bars. Gearing connecting follower 40 to a rod 74 connected to the bars includes a set of change gears 44, 56, 60 and a safety overload device (70), Fig. 3 (not shown). The stroke of rod 74 and thus the longitudinal feed step of the bars 14, 14<SP>1</SP> is controlled by engagement between a collar 84 and stops 86, 88. To vary the stroke, a fresh set of change gears and a collar 84 of different-length are introduced. In use, clockwise movement of plate 26 through 90 degrees from the Fig. 6, position, moves track segment 35 along follower 40 without moving the follower radially and segment 37 moves follower 42 inwardly which through gearing, including an overload device 94, Fig. 1, moves the bars towards each other to grip a workpiece. In the second 90 degree arc, segment 33 leaves follower 42 in radially fixed position and segment 37 shifts follower 40 inwardly which moves rod 74 and thus the finger bars to the left (Fig. 6) until collar 84 abuts stop 88. This occurs before the segment 37 has passed the follower 40; additional inward movement of follower 40 is absorbed by a yeildable portion 64 of a gear 62. In the third 90 degree arc, segment 39 shifts follower 42 radially outwards to retract the bars 14, 14<SP>1</SP> while the segment 33 leaves follower 40 in radially fixed position. In the fourth arc segment 39 shifts follower 40 radially outwardly, to move the bars 14, 14<SP>1</SP> to the right the yieldable gear portion 64 absorbing the overtravel, and segment 38 leaves follower 42 in radially fixed position.

Abstract: 849,792. Hydraulic telemotors; valves. KOCKUMS MEKANISKA VERKSTAD A.B. Dec. 23, 1958 [Feb. 17, 1958], No. 41548/58. Classes 69 (2) and 135. The receiver of the telemotor system for operating ship's whistles, as described in Specification 818,648, is modified in that the hydraulic reservoir 41 is integral with the cylinder body 13 and that the piston 53 is slidably mounted on its piston rod 48 and acts as the check valve allowing volumetric changes in the fluid in the system to be compensated for by oil flowing into or out of the reservoir 41. An axial bore 60 leads from one end of the piston rod to the neighbourhood of a flange 55 and connects through a narrow bore 62 with a groove 63 adjacent the flange. The piston is normally pressed by a light spring 57 against a collar 56 and the pressure side of the piston is in communication with the reservoir 41 through the bores 62 and 63 and an opening 59. When the transmitter is actuated, the restricted bore 62 immediately allows sufficient rise of pressure for the piston to be moved so that a sleeve portion 54 closes the groove 63 and so that the piston and rod move as a unit. A filler plug 68 is provided and, for venting the system when it is being filled from the transmitter end, a bore 64 can be opened by unscrewing a plug 65.
