IPC: H04L9/18
Filed: 1965-12-15
Granted: 1967-01-27
Abstract: 1,164,490. Digital transmission systems. CSF-COMPAGNIE GENERALE DE TELEGRAPHIE SANS FIL. 13 Dec., 1966 [15 Dec., 1965], No. 55893/66. Heading H4P. A cipher key generator comprises a source 1 of a sequence of random signals and a counter 5 for completing an alphabet if all letters of the alphabet have not been generated by source 1 when the source has emitted a preset number N of signals. Source 1 emits a parallel-bit signal representing a letter for each pulse from a clock 2. The signal passes to cipher key output K and also to unit 7 which triggers a store 8 corresponding to the signal. OR gate 10 gives a pulse D when an untriggered store is triggered. Counter 4 counts N clock pulses and then reverses switch 3 and enables gate 11. If not all the stores 8 are triggered, counter 5 provides parallel-bit signals which pass to output K and also trigger the stores 8. When all stores are triggered gate 9 gives a pulse C and, via gate 11, stops clock 2. Thus, in this one cycle of operation output K contains all letters at least once. Ciphering.-Various arrangements are described, in each of which upon coincidence of a clear signal to be ciphered and a cipher key signal another key signal is transmitted to represent the clear signal. This other key signal may be, for example, the signal prior to that which caused coincidence, Fig. 4 (not shown). In such a case if the signal causing coincidence is the first signal in the key sequence then the clear letter is sent unciphered. In a further embodiment, Fig. 7 (not shown), the clear signals are compared (300) only with key signals occurring for the first time, i.e. those causing a pulse D. Each such key signal is passed to one of a number of stores (43), selected by a switch (42) controlled by the D pulses. A further switch (45) connects the system output (46) to the stores in an order controlled by the pulses D. When coincidence of the clear and cipher signals occurs, the further switch stops scanning and, when a C pulse arrives, the cipher signal in the selected store is transmitted to represent the clear signal. Deciphering.-The deciphering processes are the reverse of the ciphering processes.

Title: Improvements in or relating to variable speed and reversing gear
IPC: F16D67/00
Filed: 1921-01-06
Abstract: 156,639. TrenRler, O. June 18, 1919, [Convention date]. Addition to 149,245. No Patent granted (Sealing fee not paid) Variable-speed gearing.-The parent Specification describes variable-speed and reversing epicyclic gearing controlled by an hydraulic brake, which is automatically controlled by a spring acting against the load. According to the present invention, a different brake and a silent detent are used. The driving-shaft 1, Fig. 4, is secured to a sun gear 4 meshing with planet gears 5 which mesh with other planet gears 6, the gears 5, 6 being supported on a disc 17. The effect of increased load is that the spring 31, Fig. 2, yields and allows relative turning of the disc 17. The brake comprises plungers 43, 44, Fig. 1, adapted to reciprocate in a housing 42 comprising cylinders 45, 46 connected by a channel 47. A screw 48 adjusts the resistance to the flow of oil between the cylinders. The outer parts 50, 51 of the plungers register with arcuate slots 54 in levers 52, 53 pivoted near their ends 63. The free ends of these levers are connected by rods 55, 56 to crank-pins 58, 57 upon the gears 6, so that the levers are oscillated by the gearing. A lug 41, Fig. 2, projecting from the housing 42 is engaged by a pin 40 upon the disc 17. The disc 17 as it turns carries the housing 42 with it, so that the ends 50, 51 of the plungers move along the slots 54, and the braking effect is varied, causing a variation in the speed-ratio transmitted by the gearing as a whole. When the spring 31 is not strained, a lug 59, Fig. 1, on one of the plungers engages a stop 61, stopping the hydraulic action and causing solid driving. As the plungers move toward the pivots 63, the braking action diminishes to zero at low speed. The automatic action may be replaced by manual control, according to which, a cone 76, Fig. 2, is thrust inwards. A roller 74 riding upon it turns a lever 73, Fig. 3, which moves a pin 75 upon the housing 42, turning that housing positively. A pawl C5 is provided to prevent the planet carrier from turning backwards. A link 66 pivoted to the pawl is movable between stops 68, 68<1> and engages through a roller 67 a plain rim upon a detentwheel 39. As the wheel 39 turns forwards, the pawl 65 is held clear and is silent. On reversed movement beginning, the link 66 trips, and the pawl 65 drops in and stops the movement. The other pawl 70 is used in reversed driving.
