Title: Circuit arrangements for telephone-charges indicators
IPC: H04M15/28
Filed: 1973-01-05
Abstract: 1395482 Automatic exchange systems; pulse width and frequency discriminators SODECO SOC DES COMPTEURS DE GENEVE 5 Jan 1973 [10 Jan 1972] 764/73 Headings H4K and H3T Metering at a substation is effected by bursts of pulses whose authenticity is determined by a pulse discriminating logic which determines that the pulses of a burst have a mark portion that falls within predetermined limits before permitting the pulses to be applied via an integrating circuit to an electromechanical meter which registers one unit per burst. In Fig. 1, metering pulse trains applied between both live wires and earth are coupled via electro optic device 2, e.g. a photo-diode and photo-transistor integrated circuit, to the pulse discriminator 12. The pulse output of the latter is used to charge a capacitor 16 which thereby permits transistor amplifier 18 to conduct throughout the train and thus enable the meter coil 17 once. The circuit is energized by line current utilizing a bridge rectifier 22 to guard against polarity reversals. Diodes 8 and 21 protect their shunt components from overvoltages. Back-to-back Zener diodes 5, 6 serve as a pulse amplitude descriminator, i.e. they reject pulses of lower than a predetermined amplitude. Pulse discriminator, Fig. 2, comprises two digital "high-pass" filters 24, 25 whose effective action is akin to that of a band pass filter in that if the repetition frequency and mark/space ratio of an incoming train falls within its "passband" the train is transmitted through the circuit to output 17. Each filter 24, 25 comprises a monostable 26, 27 and a D-type flip-flop 28, 29 respectively. The pulses present at the outputs of the circuit components are shown in Fig. 3, from which it can be gathered that the astable period of monostable 26 is longer than that of monostable 27 and that an authentic metering pulse train at the output of inverter 30 has a mark portion intermediate the two astable periods. In operation, the rising portion of the first pulse of a train is effective to cause the flipflops 28, 29 to adopt high and low outputs respectively on their Q and Q terminals. The falling portion of the first pulse triggers the monostables. Since it is assumed that the pulse train is authentic, the next following rising portion clocks flip-flop 29 unsuccessfully, i.e. its Q output remains unchanged since its data input is by now restored to the high level with the relapse of monostable 27. On the other hand the data input of flip-flop 28 is still at a low level so that its Q output changes to a low level. The second pulse of the train is thus transmitted through NOR gate 32. The output of flip-flop 28 is maintained at the low level throughout the rest of the train thus enabling the gate 32 to pass the rest of the train. If the mark period of the incoming pulse train is longer, or shorter, than both T1 and T2 then neither, or both, bi-stables change state with the result that the pulse train is inhibited. If the frequency of the train should change then the discriminator will react accordingly.

Filed: 1941-01-20
Abstract: 546,633. Stopping gas mains &c. UNDERPRESSURE ENGINEERING CO., Ltd., and TOWNLEY, A. Jan. 20, 1941, No. 767. [Class 99 (ii)] An inflatable bag 19, Fig. 3, for use in temporarily closing a gas main or other pipe 14 is inserted into position in the pipe through a hole 1 therein from a transfer tube 13 fitted over the hole and adapted to accommodate the bag in an uninflated condition, the tube being sealed against the escape of gas by a removable cap 15 provided with glands 16, 17 through which pass an inflating-tube 18 and a separate manipulating-rod 20 formed with an eye 23 connected to the bag. A detachable extension 21 with handle 22 is provided for attachment to the rod 20. The transfer tube may also be sealed from the main by a flexible rubber valve 24, which may be pulled into the sealing position shown, or lowered therefrom, by a wire or the like 27. In modifications, the manipulating-rod may be tubular with the inflating-tube passing through it, and the cap 15 may be replaced by a sealing-piston attached to the manipulating- rod so that it may be operated up and down the tube 13. Where the sealing-piston is used, the tube may be shut off from the main by a seal of pigskin or the like which is cut away by a cutter on the piston. A pressure gauge may be fitted to the side of the transfer tube. Fig. 1 shows a main 2 with a branch 5 attached in the form of a split-tee 5. The hole 1 is cut in the main by means of a drill 4, after which the branch 5 is closed by an inflatable bag 8 inserted from a lateral transfer tube 10. Another transfer tube similar to the tube 13 and containing the main inflatable bag 19 is then fitted axially within the end of the branch 5 in place of the usual drill housing 6. A sealing-valve may be provided at the inner end of the latter transfer tube, operable by means of a lever.

IPC: G02B7/28
Filed: 1985-01-07
Abstract: PURPOSE:To use simultaneously and easily one optical system to perform tracking and auto-focusing without degrading the light use efficiency by using three semiconductor lasers. CONSTITUTION:Laser luminous fluxes from three semiconductor lasers on a substrate 1 are led to photo detectors 9, 9', and 9'' respectively after passing a lens 3. The detector 9' detects an information signal to reproduce a picture on a television 11. The differential output of photodetectors 9 and 9'' drives a galvanomirror 4 to allow the laser luminous flux to follow up an information track varying in the direction of an arrow. The detector 9' is set on a rear-side focal surface 15 of a converging lens 5, and the detector 9 is set in the positive side, and the detector 9'' is set in the negative side. If a video disc 6 is deviated from the focus of the lens 5, the difference between output signals from photodetectors 9'' and 9 is positive or negative. This difference signal from low-pass filters 12 and 12' is used to drive the lens 5 by a driving circuit 14, thereby keeping the length between the lens and the disc constant to hold the focus on the disc surface.
