Title: Improvements in and connected with electric cables
IPC: H01B9/06
Filed: 1925-04-23
Abstract: 252,519. British Insulated & Helsby Cables, Ltd., and Nisbett, G. H. April 23, 1925. Cables, processes for making.-Electric cables of the type having a duct or ducts filled with an insulating oil or compound, as for example the cable described in Specification 241,628, are filled so as to completely remove the air in the duct or ducts by inclining the cable and forcing the insulating' medium in from the lower end.

Abstract: 1394665 Adjusting brakes for wear AUTOIPARI KUTATO INTEZET 8 March 1972 [8 March 1971] 10890/72 Heading F2E A brake actuating mechanism including a manually operable slack adjuster comprises a driving ring 19 coaxial with a member 3 rotatable with a brake actuating cam and abutting an adjusting ring 20, the rings 19, 20 being situated within the hub of a brake controlling lever 10. One of the cylindrical surfaces of the driving ring 19 is formed with a reversible thread 25 for co-operation with a reversible thread of the hub of the lever 10 (as shown, Figs. 2, 5, 7, not shown) or of the member (Figs. 3, 4, 6, 8, not shown) and the other of the cylindrical surfaces being splined or grooved 22 for cooperation with complementary formations of the member (as shown, Figs. 2, 5, 7, not shown) or of the hub (Figs. 3, 4, 6, 8, not shown) respectively. The arrangement is such that when adjustment of the brake is required the adjusting ring 20 is urged against the driving ring 19 to cause a relative rotation betweeen the member and the lever 10. As shown the adjusting ring 20 is threadedly connected to the member 3 so that rotation of the ring 20 urges the same against the driving ring 19. Alternatively the adjusting ring may be threadedly connected to the hub of the lever 10 (Figs. 2, 3, not shown). In a modification a manually rotatable ring surrounds the adjusting ring (Figs. 5 to 8, not shown) whereby the adjusting ring is made to urge the driving ring in its adjusting direction.

Title: Improvements in or relating to speech frequency signal receivers
IPC: H04Q1/446
Filed: 1960-03-31
Abstract: 941,774. Relay circuits. TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET L. M. ERICSSON. March 31, 1960 [April 1, 1959], No. 11404/60. Headings H3P and H4R. A non-linear circuit comprises an amplifier 6 having a pair of diodes 9, 10 connected in series with the output and a further diode 2 connected to the input. The diodes are biased so that diode 2 attenuates low level input signals whilst diodes 9, 10 block output signals corresponding to a level below E 1  (Fig. 4). Input signals above level E 1  result in a rectified current from diodes 9, 10 which tends to overcome the bias on diode 2, reducing its attenuation so that a pronounced increase in output current occurs sufficient to energize relay 12. The circuit is suitable for use in a voice frequency signalling system of the type in which incoming signals are first fed through an amplitude limiter so that the amplitude of the emergent voice frequency signal is diminished in the presence of speech currents. Transformer 8 and capacitor 13 are preferably resonant at the signalling frequency. In Fig. 1 (not shown), the bias source is connected in series with the resistor 3 and diode 2 is connected in parallel with the input circuit.

Title: Improvements to the wiring of the contacts in crossbar switches
IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 1963-03-22
Abstract: 964,247. Automatic exchange switches. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES Ltd. March 22, 1963 [March 26, 1962], No. 11480/63. Heading H1L. [Also in Division H4] In a cross-bar switch at least some of the multipling connections between corresponding contacts of the cross-point contact sets extend diagonally with respect to the array formed by the cross-points. As shown, the multiples connected to the inlets e1-e20 extend diagonally across the cross-point array formed by select bars H2-H6 and hold bars V1-V7, whereas the multiples connected to the outlets run parallel to the hold bars. Thus the select bar to be used in setting up a connection depends upon the outlet as well as the inlet. Each select bar has two select magnets A giving two corresponding operative positions and a common further select bar H1 also has two operative positions, permitting discrimination between the four contact sets at each cross-point.

Abstract: 455,295. Road signals for controlling traffic. AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC CO., Ltd., Strowger Works, and WILLIAMS, M. O., Haulfryn, Glen Road, Broadgreen, both in Liverpool. April 16, 1935, No. 11791. [Class 118 (ii)] In a traffic-control system using lightsensitive detectors, duplicate apparatus is brought into use if the light detector is not energized for more than a predetermined time. As shown in the Figure, the relay A is energized when light does not fall on the cell 18. While relay A is up condenser QA charges and when relay A releases the condenser is discharged. If relay A is held up for more than a predetermined time the condenser QA charges to the striking voltage of lamp NL so that relay Q energizes. Relay M pulls up to bring in the duplicate equipment 28, V2, 1A and to light duplicate lamp 27 and alarm lamp 29. Relay M is also energized to bring in the duplicate apparatus if the filaments of either valve V1 or lamp 15 should fail. Relay M may be made dependent on relay A so that if the auxiliary apparatus is brought into use due to a vehicle obstructing the beam for more than a predetermined time, the duplicate equipment is cut out when relay A releases. The equipment may be arranged across a road or across a section of pavement so that it can be controlled automatically by pedestrians wishing to cross the road.
