Patent GB-2119510-A (GB)
Title: R.F. filter whose characteristics can be rapidly changed
Inventor: GRATZE STEPHEN CECIL
IPC: G01R23/17
Filed: 1983-05-11
Abstract: An R.F. input signal at 1 is applied to an electro-acoustic transducer (Bragg cell) 2 which launches surface acoustic waves along a lithium niobate block 3 which interact with light from a laser 4 to deflect the light by an angle depending on their frequency. The deflected light is incident on a spatial light modulator 7, controlled by control signals on lines 7A so as to determine the relationship between the electric field and hence the translucency of the filter 7 and the position in a direction perpendicular to the optical path. This relationship can be a simple one such that light is transmitted only through certain parts of the filter or can be more complex. The filter thus filters by different amounts light modulated by input signals on different carrier frequencies. The light, thus filtered is heterodyned with an undeflected portion of the light, at 8, and converted back, at 9, into electrical signals. Alternative optical light modulators use electric fields to change the voltage phase of light divided between two light guides to cause distinctive interference on recombination, or to modify the coupling between two light guides. <IMAGE>

Title: Flow detection device
Inventor: MICHLIG STEPHAN PAUL
IPC: G08B21/20
Filed: 1983-12-17
Abstract: A device generates an indication whenever it detects the flow of water through a conduit. The device is particularly intended to monitor presence of water flow as the sensed parameter in an alarm system. As shown in the Fig., a spring biassed non return valve has a magnetic valve component (14) and an external reed switch (12) which senses movement of the valve. As applied to a domestic water usage type of inactivity alarm, the reed switch resets and initiates a timer 23. If the timer "times-out" before a subsequent resetting operation, the alarm (24) (eg audio/visual/radio/telephone dialler) is energised. The alarm may also be initiated by direct manual operation. The device may also detect sprinkler operation, or actuate shut off valves if pipes rupture. <IMAGE>
