Title: Improvements in and relating to railway vehicles with high speeds
IPC: B61F5/24
Filed: 1930-12-06
Abstract: 354,147. Axle-trucks. KRUCKENBERG, F. and STEDEFELD, C., 20, Georgsplatz, Hanover, Germany. Dec. 6, 1930, No. 36854. Convention date, Dec. 7, 1929. [Class 103 (vi).] In a high-speed railway vehicle of the kind in which the individual axles 11, Fig. 1, are normally connected to the vehicle frame 17 by a pair of parallel pivoted bars 12 so that the axle can partake only of a parallel or non-radiating displacement, means are provided whereby either the driver may positively set the axles in an inclined or radiating position, e.g. when desired to negotiate sharp curves at slow speed, or the axles may be arranged to radiate automatically. In the construction shown in Fig. 2, the latter object is attained by inserting in the bars 12 resilient elements such as springs 20, which may be rendered solid or pre-loaded to a desired degree by screwing up the gland 21. When so loaded the parts 18, 19 of the bars 12 function as a rigid element, such condition being suitable for running on a straight track; when the gland 21 is slackened off, radiation of the axles is permitted, the bar 12 on one side being lengthened and the bar on the opposite side being shortened. In another arrangement, Fig. 3, the bars 12 are connected to internally-threaded sleeves 22, 23, which are adjustable on a transverse spindle 24 controlled by the driver through bevel gear 25, so that the bars 12 can be disposed either in a normal parallel position or alternatively in an inclined position permitting radiation of the axle. In a further construction the bars 12 are connected to the ends of a swivelling lever, and the system of links so formed may either be locked or be rendered capable of swivelling as a whole by means of two additional links connectible selectively either to the vehicle frame or to the axle. In these last two constructions a centralizing force for the axles is needed, and such may be supplied by springs associated or not with a hydraulic dashpot for damping purposes. Such a combination is shown in Fig. 7, in which, in addition, the springs 39, 40 and the dashpots are so arranged that the driver, by admitting compressed air to one or other of the liquid chambers 42, 43, may positively effect an inclination of the axle. Between the chambers 42, 43 and the'corresponding piston cylinders 37, 38 are disposed valves 41, 44, which may either be partially throttled to adjust the damping effect or be completely closed to prevent radiations of the axle. According to a still further arrangement a positive inclination of the axle is effected by connecting the bars 12 to pivoted levers associated with a right- and left-handed screw-threaded spindle rotated by the driver.

Title: Improvements in modulation meters
IPC: G01R29/06
Filed: 1946-12-13
Abstract: 629,545. Measuring modulation. BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION, and HILL, A. H. Dec. 13, 1946, No. 36897. [Class 40 (v)] A modulation meter comprises means for applying a voltage representative of the peak amplitude of the unmodulated carrier in series opposition to a fixed voltage of equal value, and means for measuring the overall voltage which appears when the carrier is modulated. The invention facilitates modulation measurements when the carrier is modulated asymmetrically. In Fig. 5, the unmodulated carrier is applied to coil L<1>, and by adjustment of the input coupling or the tapping on resistance R<5>, a fixed voltage equal to the rectified carrier voltage produced across resistance R1 is connected in series opposition. When the carrier is modulated, a second rectifying system V<2>, R3, C<4>, produces a voltage across condenser C<4>, which is measured by means of a valve voltmeter V<3>, R<4>, M. Meter M can be calibrated to indicate the degree of modulation which is then measured relative to the unmodulated carrier level and not the average modulated carrier level.

Filed: 1938-12-20
Abstract: 522,951. Image intensifiers. LUBSZYNSKI, H. G. Dec. 20, 1938, No. 37029. [Class 39 (i)] In an image intensifier an optical image is directed by a lens L on a photo cathode P; the composite electron stream therefrom is accelerated and focused by an electrode A and electromagnet C on to a fluorescent screen S on .the back of the cathode P the resulting light causing further emission.from the cathode, the optical images being in registry. The fluorescent screen is carried by a transparent platinum coating B on a mica plate M between the screen and cathode. A half silvered mirror may be interposed between the lens L and the envelope to enable viewing of the screen S. A number of secondary emission grids G1-3 may be placed between the cathode and screen to amplify the electron stream, and render large voltage difference between the cathode and screen unnecessary. To prevent oscillation which might occur if the feed back cycle were repeated too often a periodic negative impulse may be applied to one of the grids G1-3 or to an auxiliary electrode. The travel of the electrons from the photo cathode is slow over most of their circular path, being accelerated at the end by high potential difference between the grid G3 and screen S. The screen S may act as a mosaic as well as a luminescent screen thereby making possible the obtaining of an amplified charge image.
