Title: Improvements in or relating to Telephone Exchange Systems
IPC: H04M3/44
Filed: 1966-12-23
Abstract: 1,176,345. Automatic exchange systems. SIEMENS A.G. 23 Dec., 1966 [29 Dec., 1965], No. 57693/66. Heading H4K. In a PBX provided with abbreviated dialling facilities, the directory number of a called party is determined from a consideration of the digit(s) dialled by the caller and the identity of the line group of the caller. A calling line is identified by the operation of hundreds, tens and units relays and thereby connected to a free link and hence to a free register with the aid of a path finder as is described in Specification 1,022,022. The register determines in unspecified manner when the abbreviated code (one or more digits) has been received and stored in full on a set of relays therein and then seizes a common first diode translation field to bring up a relay corresponding to the code. Thereupon, the link is ordered to revert a request-for-identification signal over the c-wire or the speech wires. In the latter case the same identifier as before supplies the caller's identity whereas in the former case an auxiliary identifier provides the required information. In either case a relay contact tree is " energized " to bring up a relay which denotes the class of service of this caller (Here the term " class of service " is used merely to differentiate on a very simple basis between the privileged subscribers, whereby some simplification of the second translation field-see later-is achieved.) Contacts of this relay together with contacts of the aforementioned relay denoting the abbreviated code are operated in a contact tree connected to a. second diode translation field, whereby a set of relays corresponding to the full number of the called party are energized. The identity of these relays is then passed to the path finder so that the called side of the connection to the seized link can be set-up.

Title: Pump
IPC: F02M37/12
Filed: 1978-10-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a diaphragm pump operable by the combustion gases of an internal combustion engine. The pulsating gases are supplied to an actuation chamber E with a vent F to atmosphere, thereby gases causing reciprocation of the diaphragm B and pumping of e.g. liquid fuel through a pumping chamber H having inlet and outlet valves 1, 0. Without the actuation chamber being vented to atmosphere, the liquid fuel is necessarily heated to too great a temperature and also the products of combustion cannot escape. The latter defect will lead in time to the pump ceasing to function. <IMAGE>
