Title: Improvements relating to the Tuning of Carburettors and Fuel Injection Valves
Inventor: GAMBLE FREDERICK DAVID MINORS
IPC: F02M13/02
Filed: 1967-11-13
Abstract: 1,195,407. Testing carburetters and fuel injectors. F.D.M. GAMBLE. Nov. 11, 1968 [Nov.13, 1967], No.51643/67. Heading F1B. Apparatus for measuring the quantity of fuel delivered in a given time by each carburetter or fuel injection during idle running of a multi-carburetter or multi-injector engine for the purpose of subsequently equalizing the flows through the carburetters or injectors, comprises a fuel reservoir 10, Fig. 2, and a number of transparent pipes 5 connectable to the carburetters or injectors and connected to the reservoir via a manifold 5a and a pipe 9, a vent line 7 being provided between the manifold and reservoir. The apparatus can be mounted on the engine by adjustable feet 2. The pipes 5 are filled with fuel to the level of the manifold 5a by lifting the reservoir 10 on its support 11, whereafter the reservoir is lowered to the dash-line position. Then the engine is run at idling speed for a given time after which the quantity of fuel drawn from each pipe 5 is measured on a scale 6. When used for testing injectors, e.g. of a six cylinder engine, the tank 10 is pressurized to the usual injection pressure. During test running of carburetters, faults, e.g. dribbling float needle valves or sticking floats, can be detected by watching the fuel levels in the pipes 5. Auxiliary apparatus for comparing the air-flows through constant suction carburetters of the type in which the choke rests on a stop at engine idling speed, includes a number of manometers (15), Fig. (not shown), each communicating with the piston chamber of a respective carburetter to indicate the suction therewithin and thereby the air-flow through the carburetter. Additionally, worn carburetter butterfly-valve spindles can be detected by observation of the manometers. Fig. 4 shows an apparatus for indicating air-flow in constant suction carburetters of the type having a floating choke during idling. That apparatus comprises, for each carburetter, an electrically insulating bush 20 mounted on the carburetter piston chamber D and carrying a conduction screw 21 which, on contact with the carburetter piston guide stem S, causes a light to operate. When the engine is stationary, the screw 21 is screwed down until it just touches the stem S, whereafter a scale 23 is adjusted to its zero position relative to a pointer 22 carried by the screw and the screw is unscrewed. During idling of the engine, the screw is again screwed into contact with the stem S, the pointer then indicating the lift of the floating carburetter piston and thereby the air-flow through the carburetter. The air-flows through the carburetters are equal when all lights come at at similar pointer positions.

Title: Interference prevention in computer

Filed: 1975-12-23
Abstract: 1518829 Interference prevention HONEYWELL INFORMATION SYSTEMS Inc 23 Dec 1975 [30 Dec 1974] 52579/75 Heading G4A A computing system includes a protection system for preventing interferences between processes based on a continuously updated record of the history of utilization of resources. There may be a set of utilization tables, Fig. 4, one for each resource and indicating the processes (A-D) which have previously accessed that resource and whether each access was a read (R) or write (W), and a matrix, Fig. 5, of the relationship between processes resulting from the sequential accessing of the resources by the processes; when a new access is requested the utilization tables are accessed to determine new relationships between processes implied by the request and it is then determined from the matrix whether the new access would violate rules of interference and thus should be denied. If a new relationship already exists in the matrix the access is allowed whereas if its inverse exists explicitly or implicitly in the matrix the access is denied; if neither exists the access is allowed, the utilization tables and matrix being updated after each access. In the matrix of Fig. 5 0 indicates no direct relationship between the processes, 1 indicates "follows but does not depend upon" (write follows read) and 2 indicates "follows and depends upon" (read or write follows write). Thus the accesses shown in dotted lines for resource R 4  in Fig. 4 would be denied. If a read access is denied the access is routed to an earlier generation of the resource if such is available and reading of it would not produce interferences. If this is not possible, or for a denied write access, the process which interferes with the requested access is aborted, as are any processes depending thereon and the system is restored to its state prior to execution of the aborted processes. The aborted processes are subsequently re-run. The computing system operates under the control of microinstructions partially stored at the time of system initialization, some of the microinstructions being stored in a hardware area of the main memory (11, Fig. 1, not shown), some in programmable read-only and random access memory in the processing unit and some in read-write and read-only storage sections of control stores (42, 52, 62, Fig. 1, not shown) in peripheral subsystems. Details of the form of the microinstructions and nested branches are given.

Providing a magnetized zone on a ticket is recognized by a magnetic reading head 5, Fig. 2, a first relay is operated to permit a knife 9 to obliterate the magnetic portion by actuation of an electromagnet 11 after a switch 8 is closed by the ticket, but non-recognition of the ticket prevents operation of the first relay and an alarm is operated. The signal from the magnetic reading head 5 is amplified and presets a bi-stable device to operate the first relay which disconnects the alarm circuit and closes the obliteration circuit until the switch 8 is closed which operates a second relay to energize the electromagnet 11. Non-recognition and non-operation of the first relay leaves the alarm circuit partially connected to a source of energy which is completed on closing of the switch 8 and operation of a third relay.

Abstract: 1, 097, 558. Photo-electric systems. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION. Dec. 16, 1965 [Dec. 28, 1964 (2)], No.53367/65. Heading G1A. Apparatus for measuring the intensity of radiation comprises a plurality of pairs of diodes, the diodes in each pair being connected in opposite conducting relationship and at least one diode of each pair being radiation sensitive, means connected to one end of each pair of diodes applying a varying voltage thereto, and means connected to the other end of each pair to measure the total current through said pairs. When the sawtooth voltage applied to the diode pairs by driver 12, Fig. 1 is negative the diodes 20 are back biased, but as its value goes through zero they conduct the leakage current of the photo-diodes. This leakage current is controlled by the illumination of the photo-diodes, and the total current is dependent upon the number of photo-diodes illuminated. The delay due to the capacitance of the diode pair in switching after the sweep voltage passes through zero depends upon the intensity of illumination and may be used to determine how many photo-diodes are illuminated by various intensities of light. The diode pairs may be arranged in a two dimensional array to measure the area of objects interrupting uniform illumination of the array. The position of an object may be determined by connecting the diode pairs to points on a D. C. voltage divider, Fig. 6. As the sweep voltage is applied by driver 144 the diodes 120 switch on in turn and the total current increases in steps except where the photo-diode is obscured by the object 142. The changes in total current are detected by a differentiating transformer 132A, B. The battery 122 may be replaced by a transistor constant current source, Figs. 8 and 9 (not shown). The diodes and photo-diodes may be formed as a continuous three layer wafer as in Specification 1, 010, 583.
