Filed: 1954-08-30
Abstract: 755,581. Control of motors. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd. July 27. 1955 [Aug. 30, 1954], No. 25138/54. Class 38(3) In a Ward-Leonard system, the generator is driven by an induction motor 1 which is also coupled to a flywheel serving as an energy storage device, an auxiliary D.C. motor 5 being mechanically coupled to the generator and having its armature winding connected to the secondary winding 3 of the induction motor through rectifiers 4. The field winding 6 of the auxiliary motor is excited by means of an amplidyne 7 the control field 8 of which is rendered effective when the primary current of the induction motor exceeds a predetermined value. For this purpose, the output of a current transformer 9 in the primary circuit of the induction motor is rectified and compared with a direct potential of predetermined value applied across resistor 10, so that, when the rectified output of the current transformer exceeds the predetermined potential, indicating a period of peak torque requirement, the control field 8 of the amplidyne is excited. The torque of the motor 1 is then reduced due to the apparent increase in its secondary resistance, and its speed tends to decrease so allowing a part of the stored energy of the flywheel to be imparted to the system. The power loss associated with the reduction of torque of the induction motor is partly offset by the torque derived from the auxiliary motor-

Title: Dielectric sheets

Filed: 1973-05-29
Abstract: 1439179 Printed circuits WESTING- HOUSE ELECTRIC CORP 29 May 1973 [14 June 1972] 25470/73 Heading H1R The basis for a printed circuit is formed from a dielectric sheet by coating both faces with conductive material by electron beam evaporation, applying photo-resist to the coated faces, forming apertures in the resist by photographic exposure and development, and then etching the thus exposed conductive material and subsequently the underlying dielectric by treatment in etchants specific to the respective materials, the areas of conductive material opposite the apertures remaining masked during the etching treatments so that one end of each etched hole is bridged by conductive material. As described the starting sheet, which is 5 mils thick and of polyimide, contains a number of small holes with larger holes punched in the corners. After conventional cleaning and degreasing the sheet is disposed with others on a frame which is rotated above an electron bombarded source of aluminium or copper in such a way that the metal lines the apertures to provide connections and uniformly coats the surfaces. The photoresist, which also serves to block the lined holes, is exposed through masks applied to it to expose the metal in two rows of circular areas at one edge of one face and two rows of square areas at the opposite edge of the other face. Successive immersions in a phosphoric-nitricacetic mix and hydrazine remove the exposed aluminium and polyimide respectively to yield the structure shown in cross-section in Fig. 18. The metal 129 on one face is patterned by etching through further photo-resist masking to form a pattern of conductors the ends of which overhang the edges of the larger apertures to engage bonding pads of device chips located therein, and the sheet secured by ultrasonic or thermo-compression bonding to conductive layer 131 at the bases of the smaller holes to a metallized alumina substrate.

The time delay of a mercury or other conducting liquid switch is varied by an adjustable restriction in the plastics tube. As shown, the switch comprises an endless tube having limbs 22, 24, 26, 28 pivoted horizontally. An adjustable valve 44 in limb 28 provides a time delay for the liquid when the switch is tilted clockwise by rod 48, bridging between two fixed contacts at the junction of limbs 24, 26 occurring only when all the liquid has flowed to the junction. Tilting anti-clockwise causes rapid breaking and the liquid flows via limb 26 to the junction of limbs 22, 28. The switch may be modified, as a double throw switch, by providing a valve in limb 26, and contacts at the junction of limbs 22, 28. In Fig. 6 (not shown), the valve is replaced by a flexible tube whose area is adjusted by a clamp.

The cracking and catalyst zones may be maintained under pressures of from 100 to 400 lb. per sq. inch or the pressure in the cracking zone may be from 100 to 750 lb. per sq. inch and that in the catalysts zone atmospheric. Crude oil is fed through a cracking coil 39 heated to 850-1000‹F. to a fractionating tower 11 where it is fractionated in contact with reflux fed through line 17 so that the temperature is reduced to 700-800‹F. Tar and fuel oil is discharged from the base of the tower through line 18 while vapours pass through line 19 to one of a pair of catalyst chambers 13, 14 used alternately so that one may be regenerated while the other is in use. Catalysts specified comprise fuller's earth, brucite, and lime. The total products from the towers are passed to separator 24 from which liquid products are re-cycled through line 28a to coil 39 or through line 17 as reflux. The vapours pass to fractionator 12 from which gasoline is recovered overhead through line 30 while the reflux is recycled through line 37. A kerosene or furnace oil cut may be collected on plate 32 and after stripping in tower 34 recovered through line 35.
