Abstract: 1363147 Selective signalling A D L BLOISI 6 Aug 1971 37113/71 Heading G4H  In a public opinion research system, a transmission line carries signals from answer devices different from its usual signals, to intermediate station(s) where they are filtered from it, added together and sent to a central station. The transmission line is part of the telephone network. The signals have a higher frequency than the normal telephone traffic, and are durationsignificant or frequency-significant A.C. bursts. In a first embodiment, a number of 1-out-of-4 indications, each entered on keys at a respective answer device and converted to the above form, are filtered from respective telephone lines at a telephone station, and decoded to a marking on 1-out-of-4 lines (one decoder per telephone line). The signals on corresponding outputs of the decoders are added in analogue fashion, the 4 results (each in the form of 3 analogue decimal digits) being digitized and sent to the central station where each of the 4 results is added to corresponding results from other telephone stations, to obtain the number of people giving each of the 4 possible answers, the results being displayed in percentage form. In a second embodiment, the information sent from each answer device is the position of a TV or radio channel tuner in A.C. form as before, together with a frequency indicating that the TV or radio receiver is on. The tuner information is decoded and added much as before, the percentage of switched-on receivers tuned to each channel being obtained at the central station with the aid of a signal representing the number of switched-on receivers obtained by summing the "receiver-on" indications at the telephone stations and then at the central station.

Abstract: 1281235 Transferring electrostatic latent images RANK XEROX Ltd 24 July 1969 [26 July 1968] 37323/69 Heading G2H An imaging process for producing multiple copies comprises forming a latent electrostatic image on a photo-conductive plate insulating layer 22 having a light fatigued resistivity in the range from 10<SP>8</SP> to 10<SP>13</SP> ohm-cm, and contacting the image surface with the uniformly charged surface. of an insulating layer 35, increasing the field between surfaces and then separating the surfaces to transfer selectively transfer charges between the surfaces to produce an electrostatic image on the insulating layer conforming to that on the photo-conductive layer 22. A potential is applied to the layer 35 by a corona device 24, Fig. 5 such that air breakdown decends in the air-gap between layers 35 and 22 which modifies the negative charge on the layer 35. Due to persistent conductivity of exposed areas of the layer 22 the negative charges in the exposed areas will be dissipated and the original image on the layer 22 will be recovered. The insulating layer may be, for example, of cellulose acetate, ethyl cellulose, polystyrene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chroride, insulating paper or polytetrafluoroethylene. Examples of photo-conductive materials are lead oxide, zinc oxide, cadmium sulphide, and arsenic selenium alloy. The latent image formed on the layer is developed in known manner e.g. g. in a rocking tray, Fig. 6 (not shown) and then heat fixed. Multiple copies may be formed on separate insulating layers without reimaging the photoconductive layer.

Abstract: 781,836. Dividing by fusion. SCHLOEMANN AKT.-GES. Dec. 30, 1955, No. 37396/55. Class 83 (4). Continuous rolled metal, especially tube, is divided into lengths by passing it through a series of stationary inductor coils 4 which are energized successively in step with the movement of the rolled metal therethrough whereby the same point on the metal is heated continuously by the successively acting coils to an extent sufficient to divide it. Rolled tube emerging from a rolling mill 1 is conveyed by rollers 2 through the inductor coils 4. Further conveying rollers 9 moving slightly faster than the rollers 2, exert a pull on the tube to assist its division. The inductor coils are energized and de-energized in succession by a rotary switch 5 driven from the last stand 8 of the rolling mill or by separate rollers. An abutment switch 10 actuated by the end of the tube controls a magnetic coupling 11 in the drive to the rotary switch 5 to thereby ensure that the correct lengths of tube are separated from the continuous tube.
