Title: A Radio Frequency Divider / Combiner with a low loss transmission mode by connection of short circuits to ports
Inventor: WILSON CHRISTOHER NIGEL
IPC: H01P5/22
Filed: 2009-10-26
Abstract: A Radio Frequency (RF) apparatus that allows RF signals to be divided or combined with the ability to provide a low loss mode between two of the ports. This may be achieved with the rat-race (or hybrid ring) circuit 30 by the connection of short circuits to ports of the rat race combiner. When switches 42 and 46 are closed the loss between port 36 and port 38 will typically fall to less than 1dB compared to the 3dB in the normal operation of rat-race circuit. The short circuit (or ground) 44 provided when switch 42 is closed will be transformed by the quarter wave section between ports 34 and 36 to appear as an open circuit at port 36. Additionally when switch 46 is closed the quarter wave section between ports 40 and 38 will also transform the short circuit at port 40 to appear as an open circuit at port 38. This is particularly advantageous when the splitter / combiner is used with RF transceivers.Aspects of the invention include the short circuits achieved by a switch which comprises one or more PIN diodes or relays. Other aspects include an extra switch is provided such that if no power is applied to the circuit a particular mode of operation is achieved.

Filed: 1959-03-23
Abstract: 863,891. Glass seals. CORNING GLASS WORKS. March 23, 1959 [March 24, 1958], No. 10013/59. Class 56. In order to separate parts of an article joined by a devitrified glass seal formed at an elevated temperature, such, for example as, described in Specification 822,272, a re-entrant angle is formed in the glass seal which is then stressed to produce fracture. Thus part of the seal 16 connecting the funnel 12 and panel 14 of a cathode ray tube may be dissolved by the solution described in Specification 822,273 to produce a re-entrant angle 24, Fig. 3, either inside or outside the tube. The use of a hot solution may itself provide the stress to produce fracture. If the re-entrant angle is outside the tube the stress may be produced by gas jets 36, Fig. 5, directed on to the tube while it is rotated on a turntable 32. After fracture the sealing glass is removed from the parts by the solution described in Sepecification 822,273.

Title: Improvements in and relating to gun carriages having a cranked carriage axle
IPC: F41A27/24
Filed: 1923-04-12
Abstract: 197,659. Schneider et Cie. May 13, 1922, [Convention date]. Field carriages.-Relates to carriages of the type in which the rotation of a cranked-axle, for the purpose of adjusting the firing height, is performed simultaneously with the elevation of the gun for range. According to the invention, the actuation of the elevating-gear allows a spring- accumulator to rotate the cranked-axle, the same accumulator acting to counterbalance the weight of the gun about its trunnions, and also as an elastic suspension for the gun carriage during transport. In the form shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the cranked-axle A has feathered thereon a sleeve C having teeth C' engaging racks F' on spring- pressed tubes F which slide in cylinders E. The range elevating-gear J, j<3>, j<4>, which actuates an arc H<2> on the gun cradle H, is geared by wheels j<7>, j<8> to a screw K<2> engaging a nut L<1> on one of the tubes F. By operating a, hand-wheel m, the screw can be locked against end movement by a fork M which is inserted in a groove K<3> in the screw. The actuation of the elevating-gear therefore, allows the springs to expand and rotate the axle, a pinion G, capable of being clutched at I to the sleeve C, acting on an arc H<1> to counterbalance the weight of the gun about its trunnions. When travelling, the pinion G is declutched from the sleeve C and the screw K<2> is released by operating hand-wheel m, the accumulator then acting to relieve road shocks. In a modification, Fig. 7, a single elevating-arc H<1> is employed, the elevating- worm j<3> driving a wheel 0 keyed to the crankedaxle and connected with the accumulator F by a counter-shaft N which carries the sleeve C and the elevating-pinion G. When travelling, the operation of a screw r serves simultaneously to raise the worm j<3> and declutch the pinion G. In a further modification, each spring casing E is pivoted between the gun cradle and an arc which rocks on the gun trunnions and is geared to the cranked-axle.

Abstract: 853,252. Electronic counting apparatus. MARCONI'S WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CO. Ltd. Dec. 5, 1958 [March 28, 1958], No. 10149/58. Class 106 (1). A pulse counter acting as a frequency-divider comprises a cascaded series of bi-stable flip-flops (A-F in the embodiment shown, A only being shown in detail), each of which except the last has a two-position output switch for connecting either of the anode circuits to the next stage in the series so that with a 64-position 6-pole selector switch any combination of positions of the switch armatures A10 &c. may be selected to provide division by any integer up to 64. When a negative pulse output is obtained at 0, all the left-hand triodes A1 &c. are cut off, so that if all switches are set to the A9 &c. positions by switch-operated relays A11 &c. then the circuit divides by 64. Any switch set to the other position effectively interchanges the two triodes so that an output pulse sets that stage to "1," thus reducing the division ratio by 2<SP>0</SP>, 2<SP>1</SP> ... 2<SP>5</SP> for stages A, B ... F respectively:
