Title: Improvements in or relating to Ticket Issuing Apparatus
IPC: G07B5/02
Filed: 1966-12-21
Abstract: 1,175,702. Ticket printing and issuing apparatus. TATEISI ELECTRONICS CO. 21 Dec., 1966 [22 Dec., 1965], No. 57159/66. Heading G4T. Ticket printing and issuing apparatus comprises drive means for moving a film having thereon images corresponding to tickets for different destinations; means for selecting a desired destination including a first group of switch keys, each denoting a respective transport route, and a second group of switch keys, each key denoting several destinations of which each is on a different route; circuitry for operating the drive means to bring to a printing station an image corresponding to the destination selected by actuation of a key of each group; means for supplying ticket material to the printing station; means for printing on to the material at the station the selected image; and means for dispensing the printed ticket. After selecting a route a passenger presses the key SB1-SBn of the second group corresponding to his destination. The signal produced causes (a) the number of the image corresponding to the selected destination to be set up in matrix MA2, (b) the price of the ticket to be set up in matrix MA1, and (c) the price of the ticket to be indicated on an indicator RA. The passenger places his money in the apparatus and it is counted by counter C1. If the amount is greater than or equal to the required price matrix MA1 will cause a control signal A to be transmitted to a switch K to effect film advance by motor M1. A photo-electric device 5, 6 and counter C2 count the images and transmit data to the matrix MA2 and upon coincidence between the transmitted data and set up number, i.e. when the required image is at the printing station, the matrix MA2 switches flip-flop FR to its zero state. A pulse from the flip-flop actuates an inhibit circuit IN to terminate the signal A and stop film advance, and also actuates via timers T1, T2 a shutter 9 which enables an image to be projected on to printing paper P and a cutter 14-16 respectively. As the paper is cut a switch 20 is closed causing reversal of the film drive, actuation of a motor M2 to feed a predetermined length of paper to the printing station, and resetting of the flip-flop to its " 1 " state. Upon return of the film to an initial position the drive motor is de-energized by means not shown. A control console (Fig. 1, not shown) has three keys (LB-a, LB-b, LB-c) corresponding to three routes, and lamps (L-a, L-b L-c) for indicating the selected route and other lamps for indicating the selected destination. The images may be arranged on a drum. The matrix MA1 may include change giving apparatus.

Temperature compensation of the electromagnetic system of a measuring instrument comprising a magnetic circuit 50, 78, Fig. 8, including a permanent magnet 50, whose field strength changes with temperature, and a coil 82 suspended in a gap of the circuit, is provided by a member 52, see also Fig. 13, whose dimensions change with temperature and which is arranged to bear against a part 78 of the magnetic circuit defining the above gap so that the width of the gap is altered with changing tem perature. As described the instrument is the accelerometer described and claimed in the parent Specification 1,163,209 (see also Division G1), in which an annular body 84, pivotable under acceleration about a diametral axis, is continuously restored to its null position by the interaction between the coil 82, mounted on the body and supplied with a current dependent on the displacement of the body from its null position, and the magnetic circuit 50, 78. The magnet 50, e.g. of aluminium nickel alloy, is magnetized in a direction perpendicular to the pivot axis of the body 84 and the return path of the magnetic flux is formed by the ring 78. Projections 79, 80, Fig. 13, on the compensating member 52 which bear against the walls of the ring 78 are arranged at the ends of a diameter parallel to the pivot axis of the body 84 so that with increasing temperature the ring 78 is distorted elliptically to reduce the gap at the poles of the magnet 50.

Abstract: 1276670 Control systems for resistance welding apparatus CONTINENTAL CAN CO Inc 5 May 1969 [3 May 1968] 60820/71 Divided out of 1276668 Heading H2H [Also in Division H3] A system for welding the seams of a plurality of cans comprises a double pulser circuit connected to a source - 15 V of biasing potential and including an input signal terminal 29, a unijunction transistor 359 having its bases connected between the biasing source - 15 V and the input signal line 353, a switchable capacitor bank 357 being connected between terminals 365, 367 connected to the base of a transistor 347 and the emitter of transistor 359 respectively, the terminals 365, 367 being connected to the input signal line 353 via potentiometers R2, R1 respectively, the circuit operating such that when a signal is applied to the input terminal 29 causes an increase in potential at terminal 365 such that transistor 347, and subsequently transistor 343, conducts so that the signal at terminal 29 is coupled to an output line 29B if a switch 30 is in its b position thereby producing the first pulse output from the double pulser circuit. The signal on the line 29 is simultaneously applied to the terminal 367 and the potential of this point rises from an initial low level at a rate determined by the resistance R1 and the capacitance C of capacitor bank 357 until it reaches a predetermined point at which unijunction transistor 359 fires. The potential of the point 367, and hence that of point 365, drops and the drop at point 365 causes transistors 347, 343 to turn OFF. The potential at the point 365 then begins to rise until, at a predetermined potential, transistor 347, and hence transistor 343, fire once more to produce a second pulse. The second pulse persists until the signal at terminal 29 is removed to reset the circuit.

Gas passes a constant-pressure governor 5 to the valve 6 where the closure member 25 rests on its seat 19 due to the weight 26 attached to its operating diaphragm 21. The knob 30 is next depressed to allow gas to flow through ports 31, diaphragm chamber 22, valve-stem passage 29, and a valve 9 controlled by a thermostat 10 in the appliance, up to the closed valve 12. The pressure built up under the diaphragm 21 then opens the valve 6 so that the burner is ignited by the pilot when the cock 12 is opened.
