Abstract: 1,060,940. Calculating machines. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION. Sept. 24, 1965 [Oct. 27, 1964], No. 40719/65. Heading G4B. Calculating apparatus comprises groups 31, 32 of selecting members, one group to each oper- and, each member having in it a plurality of apertures 23, the members of each group being movable in combination, each combination corresponding to a different value of the respective operand and being represented by a plurality of passageways through the respective group, each passageway being formed by aligned apertures in each member of the group, and a set of associated operational members 33 movable between an inoperative position and an operative position in which each is able to penetrate one or more apertures aligned with the path of the operational member, the apparatus being such that for each operation only one passageway extends completely through all groups of selecting members. As shown, slides of a first read-in group 31 are moved to an active position by levers 21 so that the group pattern of perforations in the group will form a set of passageways. A second group 32 is similarly moved by levers 22 and forms a second set of passageways. Stop pins 33 are passed into the slides. Those pins consistent with the character of the first operand will be passed via the passageways in group 31. One of the passageways in group 32 will be aligned with one of the pins passed by the first set of passageways. This pin represents the combination of characters in the given operands. After passing through groups 31, 32 the pin passes into a group of read-out slides 50 having small and large openings (Fig. 2, not shown). The slides which have a small opening to pass the pin will be made inactive by said pin but the slides which have a large opening will be free to move to the left by a limited amount. Those slides which move under the influence of springs 39 to the left will bring their tabs 40 against relay contacts 41. The pattern of relay contacts which close indicates the result of the arithmetic operation on the two operands. The read-out slides 50 may be split into three sets for the respective operations of multiplication, addition and subtraction.

Abstract: 1,072,756. Facsimile magnetic recording apparatus. J. H. TODT. Aug. 28, 1964 [Sept. 11, 1963], No. 35372/64. Heading H4F. An original image 8, Fig. 14, traversed by a drum 7 is illuminated by lamps 9, 9a and viewed by a line array of photo-sensitive elements 15a-15n from which the resulting signals are applied by way of conductors 19 (and if necessary amplifiers) to a correspondingly arranged line array of magnetic recording heads 1a, 1b, 1c &c. which coact with a rotating drum 18 bearing a magnetically retentive surface 18a to create a magnetic image 18b corresponding to the original 8, the image being rendered visible by coating with fine magnetic particles and thereafter transferred to a recording sheet 25. A succession of recordings may be made by repeated rotation of the magnetic image through the particles 20. Erasure of an image is effected by magnetic head assembly 27. Surplus particles are removed by a brush 28. The particles may be in the form of a dry powder or suspended in a liquid. The recording heads are constructed of elongated rods with a diameter of the order of one thousandths of an inch and formed of a highly permeable material such as a Nickel-Iron-Cobalt alloy. The energizing coils may contain only a single turn. The photo-sensitive elements are constructed as shown in Fig. 9 of a cylinder of photoresistive material 14 surrounding the upper portion of a light fibre provided with reflective coatings 12 and 13. Individual connections 15 are made to one side of each cylinder 14 and a common connection 151, 17 to the other side. Transfer of the magnetic particles from drum 18 to the recording sheet 25, Fig. 14, may involve pressure and heat. Variation of the spacing of the magnetic recording heads relative to the spacing of the photo-sensitive elements may be used to produce enlargement or reduction in size of the recorded image. The recording sheet may be transparent so as to permit the recorded image to be projected optically. A suitable sheet is illustrated in Fig. 12 formed of a plastic base 33a with islands 34 of magnetic recording material, e.g. ferric oxide, cobalt or cobalt alloy. Areas 35, 36 and 37 indicate regions of recording corresponding respectively to strong, intermediate and weak signals. The developed magnetic image on drum 18 may also be made suitable for optical projection by the use of reflecting magnetic particles.

Abstract: 1,227,970. Triggering thyristors. HOLZER PATENT A.G. 21 Aug., 1968 [21 Aug., 1967], No. 40022/68. Heading H2F. [Also in Division G3] In a regulating circuit including an electronic switching device, such as a triac 31, means is provided to trigger the device at the zero points of the A.C. supply. A motor 32 supplied through the triac 31 drives an A.C. tachogenerator 20 whose output is rectified, smoothed and applied to a potentiometer 23 whose setting represents the desired motor speed. The portion tapped off by the potentiometer 23 is amplified by a two stage transistor amplifier 24, 29 and applied to the trigger electrode of the triac 31 so that it is switched on whenever the motor speed is below the set value and switched off when it rises above. Across the triac is a potential divider 35, 36 supplying a synchronizing voltage on line a. This is applied through diodes 37, 38 to the input and output of transistor 24 which is a phase inverting amplifier. There thus appears at the base of transistor 29 a full wave rectified version of the A.C. synchronizing voltage superimposed upon a D.C. level established by the speed voltage on potentiometer 23. The signal b at the trigger electrode is thus a fluctuating D.C. with peaks corresponding to the zero points of the supply and the triac is therefore fired only at the zero points. The triac may be replaced by a unidirectional thyristor (Fig. 3, not shown). The synchronizing voltage may be derived direct from the A.C. supply rather than across the thyristor 31 but the arrangement shown is preferable particularly where the voltage across the thyristor is out of phase with the supply.
