Title: A data transmission system
Inventor: NAESSL ROBERT
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1982-02-24
Abstract: 1. A circuit arrangement for connecting transmitting devices (Ta1 to Tax), which emit analogue signals, to receiving devices (Tax to Ta1), which receive analogue signals, via a t.d.m. data switching system (EDS) via which data signals which occur at a relatively low speed and items of signalling information can be switched, and which is assigned a special coupling device (K) via which data signals occuring at a relatively high speed can be switched and which for this purpose can be controlled by a control device (UEAS, SE, PE) of the t.d.m. data switching system (EDS), where the transmitting devices (Ta1 to Tax) and the receiving devices (Tax to Ta1) are in each case combined in groups via multiplexer-demultiplexer converters (MD1, MD2), each of which on the one hand converts analogue message signals with which it is supplied into digital message signals which it emits via message time channels which are allocated or assigned to the transmitting devices (Ta1 to Tax) and which occur in cyclic repetition in pulse frames, and on the other hand converts the digital message signals, with which it is supplied in the relevant message time channels, into analogue message signals which it emits to the receiving devices to which it is connected, and also emits, in a special signalling time channel, items of signalling information contained in all the analogue signals with which it is supplied, following their conversion into digital form, and similarly converts items of digital signalling information, with which it is supplied in the relevant signalling time channel, into items of analogue signalling information which it emits to the relevant receiving device (Tax to Ta1) of those receiving devices (Tax to Ta1) to which it is connected, characterised in that the signalling time channel is connected via a special signal converter arrangement (SU) only to the t.d.m. data switching system (EDS), and that the special coupling device (K) which is controlled by the t.d.m. data switching system (EDS) is connected only to the message time channels.

Title: Clamping device for crochet needles
Inventor: BERGER JOHANN
IPC: D04B27/06
Filed: 1985-05-30
Abstract: A clamping device for attaching crochet needles to the needle bar of a galloon crochet machine or Raschel loom. The clamping device consists of two body pieces, a lower piece and a clamping lid, which are fastened together by means of clamps. In one embodiment the body piece holds the needle shafts, a spacer inserted into each interval between needles, and a support piece between the shafts of a needle and a receptacle in the lower piece. This results in the formation of needle beds. In the other embodiment very shallow grooves are milled opposite one another in both body pieces. These are only a fraction of half the height of the needle shafts, leaving the major part of the needle shaft's height free after clamping.

Abstract: A rising plug valve seat (10) for insertion into a frusto-conical receiving hole (2) of a rising plug valve body (1) is disclosed. The rising plug valve seat comprises a substantially frusto-conical side wall (11) with two ports (12, 13) therein, one port (12) being arranged to be aligned with an inlet (3) of a frusto-conical receiving hole in a valve body and the other port (13) being arranged to be aligned with an outlet (4) of a frusto-conical receiving hole in a valve body. At least one of the portions (14, 15) of the side wall between the two ports are, in use, more flexible than the portions of the side wall containing the ports. Alternatively or additionally at least one of the portions (14,15) of the side wall between the two ports has, in use, a reduced contact area with a receiving hole of a rising plug valve body. The reduced contact area, may, for example, be provided by a cut-out, recess or flat portion in one or preferably both of the portions of the side wall between the two ports, The flexibility or reduced contact area of at least one, but preferably both of the portions of the side wall between the ports enables the seat to seal to a receiving hole in a valve body and a mating tip (8) to be inserted into the seat more easily as less force is required to distort the shape of the seat.
