Abstract: 1401941 Detecting foreign matter in transparent containers EMHART CORP 15 Jan 1973 [26 Jan 1972] 2074/73 Heading G1A In a modification of the comparison circuit of the device of Specification 1269515 for inspecting liquid filled transparent containers for foreign matter etc. wherein each container 10 is rotated then stopped leaving the liquid 20 inside to swirl around, the illuminated container is viewed by a video camera 30 and parts of the generated voltage pattern 36 (frame) greater than a threshold voltage level 46 are stored in the form of pulses 44 in a memory 40 for comparison (subtraction) with similar pulses formed from a later frame so that the pulses due to defects and blemishes on the container (which are in the same position in the frames) cancel, whereas pulses due to foreign matter swirling inside do not cancel and may be used to provide an error signal. The predetermined voltage of the comparator circuit is modified the relative sensitivity of the circuit is increased at the locations of the frame corresponding to pulses of the stored frame thereby lessening the likelihood of spurious error signals due to stationary dust particles, or glass defects as caused by voltage drift and/or light intensity variations. The relative sensitivity of the comparison circuit may be increased by decreasing the threshold voltage Figs. 4, 5, 6 and 7 (not shown) at the locations in the succeeding frames corresponding to the locations of the stored pulses and/or by increasing the threshold at all parts of the succeeding frame other than at the locations in the frame corresponding to the stored pulses Figs. 8, 9, 10, 11 (not shown). Circuits (Figs. 7 and 11) are disclosed for achieving this.

Patent GB-450852-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in pneumatic shock-absorbers
IPC: F16F9/512
Filed: 1935-01-23
Abstract: 450,852. Pneumatic shock-absorbers. MERCIER, J., 131, Boulevard de la Seine, Neuilly-sur-Seine, France. Jan. 23, 1935, No. 2258. [A Specification was laid open to inspection under Sect. 91 of the Acts, July 27, 1935.] [Class 108 (iii)] A pneumatic shock-absorber particularly for vehicle suspensions comprises a deformable chamber which communicates with an auxiliary chamber freely when its volume I increases or decreases from its normal value and through a restricting device when its volume tends to return to its normal value, the restricting device being influenced during the latter change in volume by controlling means subjected to the substantially constant pressure of a fluid contained in a third chamber, which pressure is practically independent of the rapid variations in pressure in the deformable and auxiliary chambers. As shown in Fig. 1, the restricting device, comprising a barrel-shaped member 6 with flanged ends 8, 9 and apertures 7, 10, 11, is slidable in an opening 5 in a partition 4 which separates the deformable chamber 1 from the auxiliary and constant-pressure chambers 3, 16 respectively. A piston 14 having a small aperture 15 is connected by a rod 13 with the member 6. Normally the pressure in the three chambers is proportional to the weight of the vehicle. When movement of the piston 2 decreases the volume of the chamber 1 the flange 8 of the member 6 abuts the partition 4 and fluid flows comparatively freely through the apertures 7 into the chamber 3 raising the pressure therein, while the variation of pressure in the chamber 16 due to the slight volumetric displacement of piston 14 is comparatively negligible. On the return movement of piston 2 the high fluid-pressure in chamber 3 acts both on piston 14 and member 6 so that the flange 8 remains abutting partition 4, until the pressure in the chamber 1 equals that in the chamber 16. In a modification, Fig. 2, the partition 20 has inner and outer sets of apertures 22, 21 controllable by upper and lower discs 27, 23 pressed by springs 28, 25 which bear on collars 29, 26 fixed to a rod on which the discs are slidable, the rod being connected by a link 30 to a piston 31 similar to the piston 14 of Fig. 1. In another construction, Fig. 3, the piston 14, Fig. 1, is replaced by a diaphragm 44 supporting a rod 39 the lower end of which is guided by a spider 40. A valve 47 slidable on the rod 39 is adapted normally under the action of springs 48... 51 to close an aperture 38 in a partition 37 separating the deformable chamber 34 from the auxiliary and constantpressure chambers 36, 46 respectively. In a fourth construction, Fig. 4, valve members 52, 53 operate similarly to the discs 27, 23, Fig. 2, and stop pieces 54, 55 on the rod 56 of a piston 57 operate similarly to the collars 29, 26. The displacements of the piston 57 are limited by shoulders 58, 59.
