Title: Binary numeration pulse counter
IPC: H03K23/74
Filed: 1954-01-15
Abstract: 746,092. Counting-apparatus. COMPAGNIE INDUSTRIELLE DES TELEPHONES. Jan. 15; 1954 [Jan. 20,1953], No. 1241/54. Class 106(1) A pulse counter is characterized in that two simultaneous series of pulses of opposite polarities are .applied to a chain of binary element groups, each group comprising two counting relays, the first of which is set at " work " at the beginning of a pair of simultaneous pulses, the second being set at " work " at the end of this pulse pair ; the beginning of a second pulse pair causes the first relay to go " off," and the second relay is returned to " off " at the end of this pulse pair. The pulses may be developed by cam-operated contacts I1, I2 which, at the first closure, cause energization of a relay 1 only. When the contacts open again current passes from positive through relay 2, closed contacts 11, and relay 1 to negative, so that both relays are energized in series. The second closing of the contacts I, I2 causes de-energization of relay 1 by a short circuit through closed contacts 22, and contacts I2 to negative. The second opening of the contacts de-energizes relay 2 also. In a second embodiment a plurality of relay pairs are arranged to form a binary counting chain and contacts K (Fig. 2, not shown), control an extra relay associated with each binary pair which changes over connections to perform either positive or negative counting.

Filed: 1938-01-17
Abstract: 509,434. Lamp shades. JORGENSEN, M. VOGEL-. Jan. 17, 1938, No. 1536. [Class 75 (ii)] [Also in Groups XVI, VII and XXII] A method of folding sheet material such as paper, cardboard or metal foil to form expansible and compressible articles, comprises bending the material along three systems of straight intersecting lines I, II, S, all the lines of each' system being parallel to and equidistant from one another, and one line of each system passing through each point of intersection C so that the material is divided by the lines into parallelograms, each divided by one diagonal line S, the folds along the diagonals being made in one direction relatively to the plane of the material, i.e. either upwards or downwards and the folds along the remaining lines being made in the opposite direction. In the case where the width w of the original sheet equals the length of a diagonal S, the folded sheet assumes the form shown in Fig. 4c before being fully compressed endwise. A sheet with a width equal to twice the length of a diagonal, when folded is shaped as shown in end view in Fig. 5. By holding one end face stationary and turning the other end face about an axis such as AA, BB or CC, articles of various shapes can be formed. Such articles made of paper may be used for lamp shades or the like. If with this form of sheet, the part SB of the diagonal SA, SB, SC is left unfolded, and an additional fold made along the centre line d parallel to the long sides of the original sheet, by drawing the side edges to a point by strings l passed through holes k, an article shaped as shown in Fig. 10 is obtained. By omitting the bending of the line d, a similarly shaped article with open ends is obtained.

Abstract: 919,285. Subscribers' equipment GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Ltd. April 19, 1961 [Jan. 19, 1960], No. 1928/60. Class 40 (4). In a subscriber's number sending apparatus containing tuned reeds or pipes, one or more tuned reeds or pipes are associated with each of a plurality of passages so that they may vibrate in response to a flow of gas through the passage, there being manually operable means for selectively controlling the flow of gas through the passages and an electro-acoustic transducer is associated with the reeds so that on vibration of the reeds corresponding pulses of voice-frequency current are sent to line. An air reservoir 12 is connected by a flexible tube 22 containing a non-return valve 24, to five flexible tubes 25 containing stop valves 26. Depression of any one of the push-buttons 11 (corresponding to the digits 0-9) will cause two out of the five tubes 25 to allow the flow of air therethrough by closing the valves 26 in the other three tubes . (Figs. 2 and 3, not shown). Operation of a button 11 also depresses a flexible wall 20 of the reservoir, opens a stop valve 23 and closes another stop valve 38. Tubes 25 are connected to chambers 18 containing tuned reeds 13-17 so that vibration of two out of the five reeds occurs when a button is depressed. Air which has now passed into chamber 29 is returned to reservoir 12 when the operated key is released (valve 38 now open) via reed 32, tube 34 and one of the tubes 35 (depending upon which button 37 is operated), this second burst of two voice frequencies acting as a class of service signal at the exchange and being sent after (or possibly before) each digit. In the embodiment described the reeds 13-17 and 32 are made of magnetic material and form part of the magnetic circuit of transducer 27. This transducer is illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7 wherein the ferromagnetic reeds are arranged in a circle surrounding the central magnet 47 and are connected at one end to a polepiece 48, their free ends being adjacent a similar polepiece. Ingress of air into a chamber 18 causes the corresponding reed to vibrate, the consequent change in the reluctance of the magnetic circuit causing a corresponding alternating voltage to be induced in the coil 46 which is connected to line. The handset microphone is short-circuited during impulse sensing to prevent spurious signals being sent to line but an alternative arrangement is described in which the microphone is placed in a special holder during signalling so that it may act itself as the sound transducer.

Title: Filling elements for counter pressure filling machines
IPC: B67C3/26
Filed: 1971-01-15
Abstract: 1332870 Back-pressure filling machines SEITZ-WERKE GmbH 15 Jan 1971 [17 Jan 1970] 2033/71 Heading B8T A rotating table back-pressure filling machine is provided with filling elements each having an electrical control mechanism to close a liquid supply valve when a container has been filled to a pre-determined height. The container 13 is pushed up into the tulip 27, which itself is forced against the housing projection 30, the container being sealed by the rubber ring 26. During this operation, the switch 28 is activated and as a result the solenoid 59 opens the inlet 56 to filling liquid, which enters the space 58 and raises the piston 55 and hence the valve body 54. This movement breaks the seal between the body 54 and the seat 53 and allows pressure gas to flow from the top of the holder 10 through the tube 15, recess 52, pipes 19 and 23 and hence into the container. When the pressure in the holder 10 and container 13 is almost balanced, the valve body 20 is moved upwards by the spring 45 until it reaches the stop 50. In doing so, the switch 49 is influenced to activate the control mechanism 66. When the valve body 20 rises, liquid can flow from the holder 10 through the entrance 16 and into the container, the gas escaping through pipes 23, 19 and back into the holder via the recess 52. When the level of liquid in the container 13 reaches the end of the pipe 23, the escape of gas is prevented and liquid rises up the pipes 23, 19 until it reaches the control mechanism 66 which then activates the solenoid 59 to close the inlet 56 and open the inlet 57, the resulting flow of liquid pushing the piston 55 and hence the valve bodies 54, 20 back to their original positions. Thus the container is sealed from the gas and liquid outlets of the holder 10. After a pre-set period, the control mechanism 66 activates the solenoid 31 to allow for the release of pressure gas in the container, the gas escaping by way of the channel 29. The filling element described is of the single chamber type, but multi-chamber elements could also be employed. The height of the control mechanism 66 can be adjusted.
