Patent FI-971933-A (FI)
Inventor: AMBERG GUENTHER
IPC: D06F39/02
Filed: 1997-05-06
Abstract: According to the invention, the detergent or cleaner is mixed with water and this mixture is fed into a trade washing machine or dish washer. Thus, the detergent or cleaner is loaded continuously or in portions onto a weighing scale and from there supplied to a mixing vessel once a predetermined weight has been reached. At the same time water is allowed to flow into the mixing vessel, where a ratio of at most 5 kg per minute detergent or cleaner to 8 l water per minute is maintained. With this costeffective metering process, detergent or cleaner can be metered precisely in the standard amounts for commercial laundering or washing operations and fed in without any problem.

Title: Improvements in or relating to signal pulse selection circuits
IPC: H03H7/32
Filed: 1946-01-15
Abstract: 606,314. Television receivers. SADIRCARPENTIER. Jan. 15, 1946, No. 1413. Convention date, March 20, 1945. [Class 40 (iii)] [Also in Group XL (c)] Pulses are selected from trains of impulses comprising pilot and secondary pulses, by applying said trains to a delay line, whereby interference occurs between outgoing pilot pulses and reflected secondary pulses, the desired pulses being selected at pre-determined points in the line by circuits with appropriate threshold biasses, which may comprise optical elements for reconstituting a television image. In one embodiment, the amplitude of the pilot pulses is at least double that of any of the intervening amplitude modulated pulses of a multi-channel communication system and the channel pulses are separated by applying the received pulse train to the input terminals 6, 7 of a delay line 1 ... 5. The channel circuits 16 are connected to intermediate points 11 ... 15 on the line and biassed by voltage source 18 so that they respond only to pulses greater in amplitude than the pilot pulses and produced by the summation of an oncoming pilot pulse and a secondary channel pulse which has been reflected from the open-circuited end 9, 10 of the line. The input end of the line is shunted by a resistance 8 equal to the surge impedance of the line. In a second embodiment, the terminals 9, 10 of the line are shortcircuited and the pilot pulses are then arranged to be of opposite polarity to the secondary pulses so that the latter, on reflection and change of sense, are additive with respect to the pilot pulses. For television reception the circuits 16 may be constituted by electrooptical elements, for example neon tubes, the source 18 providing a voltage just below their ignition voltage so that the degree of illumination is a function of the amplitudes of the secondary pulses.

Abstract: 974,362. Circuits employing bi-stable magnetic elements. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION. Jan. 16, 1962 [Jan. 18, 1961], No. 1625/62. Addition to 904,841. Heading H3B. Checking circuits are included in the matrix described in the parent Specification. Auxiliary elements such as 19, 21, 29 are linked with the output leads of drive generators 2 to 9 and elements such as 23, 25 are linked with the input leads of switches 10 to 15. The storage elements of a row are driven to one state by operation of one of the generators 6 to 8 and one of the switches 10 to 15. One of the elements of the row is restored to its original state by operation of one of the generators 2 to 5 and one of the switches 10 to 15. Each operation of a generator or a switch sets the corresponding auxiliary elements. The elements are restored by a pulse in conductor 16 from generator 9. The same pulse being used to reset the matrix. If the number of generator operations is the same as the number of switch operations, no output is induced by the reset pulse in a sensing winding 18 linked with all the auxiliary elements. Inequality is indicated by an amplifier 28. Amplifier 27 fed by a connector 17 linked with the auxiliary elements of the switches only confirms that the matrix has been operated.

Title: Improvements in or relating to ultrasonic pulse-echo systems
Inventor: SZILARD JANOS
IPC: B06B1/06
Filed: 1968-01-12
Abstract: 1,249,628. Ultrasonic probes. J. SZILARD. 8 Jan., 1969 [12 Jan., 1968], No. 1906/68. Headings H4D and H4J. . Signal prolongation due to ringing of an ultrasonic transmitting or receiving transducer is suppressed by allowing part of the acoustic energy in the transducer to pass through an acoustic delay member and return to the transducer to cause destructive interference. This permits good range resolution and sensitivity in an ultrasonic pulse-echo system, e.g. a flaw detector, medical diagnostic device, sonar or fish finder, and is applicable to transducers of the piezoelectric, ferroelectric or magnetostrictive type. The Fig. 1 probe comprises transducer 1, protective cover 4, delay-producing conductive backing plate 2, resin encapsulation 5 and matching transformer 7 in a metal housing 9. If the medium (e.g. air) behind plate 2 is of lower acoustic impedance than the plate, the plate thickness is made an odd multiple of a quarter wavelength; if of higher impedance than the plate (e.g. if plate 2 is of plastic or resin and is backed by a bonded layer of steel, tungsten or other hard metal) then the plate thickness is made approximately an odd multiple of a half wavelength (the layer thickness being an odd multiple of a quarter wavelength). In the Fig. 2 probe an auxiliary transducer 3 is coupled to the delay-producing plate 2 and is connected in series or parallel with transducer I, e.g. as illustrated. The plate 2 thickness is made equal to an odd or even multiple of the half-wavelength according to the polarity of the electrical connection. The Fig. 3 probe comprises a delayproducing plastics sheet 14 faced with a metal foil 15 for the electrical connection to transducer I. Sheet 14 is acoustically coupled .with transducer 1 by a layer of high viscosity liquid and is backed by a rubber sheet 16 and a block 17 of wood, rigid plastic or metal. The probes may be used as angle or shear wave probes.
