Title: A new or improved suspension for road vehicles
Inventor: PITT GEOFFREY CHARLES
IPC: B60G11/22
Filed: 1959-12-07
Abstract: 930,806. Road vehicle suspensions; rubber springs. CHARLES PITT (BARTON STACEY) Ltd. Dec. 7, 1960 [Dec. 7, 1959; March 31, 1960; May 12, 1960; Sept. 12, 1960], Nos. 41567/59, 11389/60, 16867/60 and 31284/60. Classes 108(2) and 108(3). A road vehicle suspension comprises an arm 1 with a wheel mounting 3 spaced from the pivot 2 and hollow resilient components 7, 8 disposed between the arm 1 and chassis 5 to respectively resist suspension movements in opposite directions. In Fig. 1 two direct load blocks 7 and a rebound block 8 are disposed between the cranked end of arm 1 and the flanges 10, 11 of a box secured to the chassis. Fig. 2 shows the invention applied to a front wheel suspension with blocks 7, 8 mounted on a rod 13 pivoted on the suspension arm and passing through a hole in a chassis bracket 15. The direct load block 7 abuts the bracket 15 and a flange 16 on the rod 13 and the rebound block 8 is fitted between the bracket 15 and a collar 17 on the rod. In an alternative rear suspension, Fig. 5, the arm extends on both sides of the pivot 2 and the position of the rebound block mounting is arranged so that the same size of block can be used for both suspension and rebound blocks. In this case, applicable to a trailer, wheels on both sides of the suspension arm 1 are provided mounted on stub-axles 19 which are offset from one another on levers 19a attached to pivot 18. In modifications (Figs. 6-9 not shown) the stub axles 19, levers 19a and pivot 18 are arranged at various angles to one another when viewed in plan while maintaining the stub axles parallel. As shown in Fig. 10 the mounting for the suspension blocks may be adjustable for different vehicle loads. The upper abutment comprises a plate 22 hinged to arms 24 which may be raised or lowered by rotating a screw either by a handwheel 26 or from the drivers seat. Spring Element. A preferred form of the resilient block is shown in Fig. 11 and comprises a hollow rubber cylinder with internal and external corrugations giving a low spring rate for initial compression followed by a higher rate on further compression.

Title: Apparatus and method for recording video signals on magnetic tape
IPC: H04N5/92
Filed: 1963-10-22
Abstract: 1,039,000. Pulse modulation circuits; tunnel diode oscillators. BELL & HOWELL CO. Oct. 22, 1963 [Oct. 22, 1962], No. 41635/63. Headings H3T and H4L. In a system for producing duration modulated pulse signals for recording on magnetic tape, the modulating signal is compared with a sawtooth reference signal to produce a rectangular wave in which the time duration between each crossover point is a function of the amplitude of the modulating signal. Playback may be accomplished by generating pulses at time intervals corresponding to flux changes on the tape and comparing the time interval between pulses with a sawtooth reference voltage to produce amplitude-modulated pulses which are passed through a low-pass filter. In a modulator circuit, Fig. 3, the negative resistance characteristics of tunnel diodes are used to generate the sawtooth reference signal. Assuming no input so that Is = 0, a current I flows via transistor 40 through inductance 36 and increases linearly with time until the tunnel diode 42 switches to its high voltage state and a Schmitt trigger 46 is switched to cut off the transistor 40. Due to the reverse voltage applied to the inductance 36 from the source 48 the current decreases sharply when tunnel diode 42 switches back to its low voltage state and finally reaches a peak value in the opposite sense when the tunnel diode 44 switches over to its high voltage state and returns the trigger 46 to close the transistor switch 40. The input signal I s  modifies the timing of the output pulses from the trigger 46 in accordance with the signal amplitude and these pulses are amplified at 52 and operate a flip-flop 54. The output of the flip-flop is a rectangular wave whose half-cycle time intervals vary in response to the amplitude of the signal I s .

Abstract: 1484149 Decimal parallel adders VEREINIGTE FLUGTECHNISCHE WERKEFOKKER GmbH 8 Oct 1974 [20 Oct 1973] 43496/74 Heading G4A A decimal parallel adder, only one stage of which is shown, receives inputs A<SP>i</SP>, B<SP>i</SP> on respective lines A 1 -A 4  and B 1 -B 4  in BCD form, inputs A<SP>i</SP> and B<SP>i</SP> passing respectively via an input adder 15 and an input complementer 16 to a main adder 17, the sum from main adder 17 passing via a complementer 18 and a correction adder 19 to provide an output in BCD form on lines C 1 -C 4 . Addition.-In all cases, a high signal on a line S causes input adder 15 to add 6 to the A<SP>i</SP> input. If the summation in main adder 17 produces no carry, a low carry output u a  is fed via an inverter 21 to one input of an EXOR gate 20, the other input N of which is low for a positive result. The EXOR gate 20 thus supplies a high input to correction adder 19 which adds 10 to the sum, which is equivalent to the subtraction of 6. If there is a carry produced by main adder 17, the 6 is not subtracted by correction adder 19 since u a  is then high. The "addition"-A-B is carried out similarly, the negative sign of the sum being indicated by a signal produced by a control unit of the adder. Subtraction.-In all cases, a high signal on a line D causes input complementer 16 to supply the complement of B<SP>i</SP> to the main adder 17. If A<SP>i</SP>#B<SP>i</SP> for all stages, the previous stage does not need to borrow and thus produces a high input u a  for the main adder 17, which adds 1 to the difference. Since this stage does not need to borrow and the result is positive ³ a  is high and N is low, so that the difference is unchanged by complementer 18 and correction adder 19. If A<SP>i</SP><B<SP>i</SP> for this stage but the result is positive, borrowing is necessary so that ³ a  and N are low; hence 10 is added to the difference by correction adder 19. If the result of a subtraction is negative, N is high so that the complementer 18 supplies the complement of the difference to correction adder 19. For a "borrow" case ³ a  is low so that the difference is unchanged by correction adder 19.

[Also in Divisions H3-H5] In a welding press having a fixed bed plate P2 for supporting the work material and a welding press head fixed to an upper press plate P1 movable over the whole width of plate P2, the feedpath from the R.F. generator (not shown) includes inductance and capacitance, the earth return E1, E2, to the generator is connected to a fixed point or points (as shown) on the bed plate P2, and the plate P1 is rigidly connected to a shorter, pick-up electrode C2 of the capacitance, which electrode is movable parallel to the other fixed capacitance electrode C1, which is inductive at the frequency of the generator and extends across the whole width of plate P2 such that the capacitance in the feedpath is unaffected as the press head is moved across plate P2 while the inductance in the feedpath is increased or decreased to compensate for the corresponding shortening or lengthening respectively of the inductance in the earth return path. Thus a substantially constant voltage is kept between the welding electrodes P1, P2. The R.F. power is fed through a coaxial feeder line 1 to the centre of a strip inductance L. The two arms L1, L2, of inductance L are connected to electrode C1 via adjustable tapping points T1, T2. The spacing between electrodes C1, C2, is also variable for tuning purposes. A screening casing 2 has a slot 3 through which the connecting arm to plate P1 from electrode C2 passes. Low inductance connections E1, E2, to casing 2 from plate P2 provide the earth return to the generator. A further screening enclosure surrounds plate P1 and is connected to easing 2. The R.F. welding press is combined with a " clicking " press, the cutting knife being heated beneath plate P1, for cutting patterns in webs of material, such as leather or plastics, fed from long rolls supported behind the press.
