Title: Improvements in or relating to automatic telephone and like selecting systems
IPC: H04Q3/42
Filed: 1948-08-18
Abstract: 693,588. Automatic exchange systems. REUMERMAN, T., and HELMIG, W. H. T. Aug. 18, 1948, No. 27548/50. Divided out of 693,554, [Group XIX]. Class 40 (iv). [Also in Group XIX] A connection is not completed until an extra digit R is dialled to check that the wanted number ABCDE has been correctly dialled. The checking digit R is the remainder on dividing ABCDE by 11. The digit 0 is regarded as 10 for the purpose of determining R. In one arrangement, an individual ten-point switch CS, Fig. 1, is connected in the line between the station T2 (No. 29047-6) and the final selectors C. The sixth contacts of the switch are connected to the station and the remaining contacts to a slow-to-operate relay R. If the number dialled at T1 does not correspond to the checking digit, R operates, connects 'wrong number tone from G and is followed after a delay, by relay D which releases the connection. The home position hc of the switch is used to mark the checking digit 0. In an arrangement employing register translators - TR, Fig. 3, a checking switch CH is connected in parallel with each translator. The checking switch is stepped in opposite directions by alternate digits and ends up in its home position hc if both the wanted number and the checking digit have been dialled correctly. When a call is originated at T1, a free translator is selected by a preselector P, relay IR operates and is followed by V which remains operated for the duration of the call. The dialled digits are repeated by IR to the translator TR over switch wiper SW1 and to driving magnets M2, M3 of the switch CH over wiper SW2. The magnets M2, M3 step the switch CH alternately in opposite directions and are connected to alternate switch contacts. The switch SW counts the digits under the control of a dialling relay U and a magnet M1. The translator transmits three digits over switch SX to operate selectors S1, S2, C. The third digit is not transmitted until the five digits and the checking digit are correctly dialled. Relay F is then operated over the wiper of CH in its home position, relay X having been operated after receipt of the fifth digit. With F operated, a direct circuit is completed through contact f2 to the called station. If the number has been wrongly dialled and CH is not in its home position when X operates, relay R operates to transmit wrong number tone and to release the connection as before by operating relay D. Relays Y, Z then interact to home the switch CH. Specification 693,586 is referred to.

Title: Detergent compositions containing effervescent granules
IPC: C11D3/386
Filed: 1969-05-30
Abstract: 1275596 Detergent compositions containing effervescent granules COLGATE-PALMOLIVE CO 30 May 1969 [31 May 1968] 27555/69 Heading C5D A granular detergent composition comprises non-effervescing detergent granules and effervescent granules containing effect material, the effervescent granules exhibiting their effervescene when the composition is added to the wash water used for the washing of fabrics. The term "effect material" is defined as a material which is employed for some special effect in a detergent composition but which would itself be adversely affected by conditions prevailing during the manufacture of the composition (e.g. spray drying) or during storage. Such an effect material may be inorganic or organic bleaching agent such as potassium dichloroisocyanide, a fluorescent brightener such as ultramarine blue, an enzyme such as a protease, a bleach booster such as sodium biomide, a bactericide or a perborate actuator. The effervescent granules may contain a binder such as a fatty acid, polyalkylene glycol, non-ionic detergents, paraffin wax or a higher fatty alcohol. The effervescent granules comprise a solid acid and a solid carbonate which term includes bicarbonates and evolve carbon dioxide when immersed in hot water, and may be of a particle size within the range 0À2 to 3 mm. Examples of suitable solid acids are fatty acids, inorganic acids such as boric acid, alkali metal acid phosphates or sulphates, or other organic acids such as citric, oxalic, tartaric or benzoic acid. The proportion of acid and carbonate in the mixture is preferably at least 5% by weight. The non-effervescing granules may comprise a built detergent composition containing a builder salt and an organic surface-active agent. The detergent may be a conventional surface active agent of the anionic, nonionic, amphotenic or cationic type or a mixture thereof. Surface active agents specified in the examples are an alkylbenzene sulphonate, an ethylene oxide condensate with a primary alkanol and a sodium fatty acid salt.

Title: Fuel injection apparatus
IPC: F02M69/12
Filed: 1975-05-23
Abstract: 1472109 Regulating fuel injection GKN TRANSMISSIONS Ltd 23 May 1975 [21 June 1974] 27571/74 Heading F1B In fuel injection apparatus substantially as described in Specification 1417703 electromagnetic actuating means modifies the controlling input to the metering means from the sensing means or superimposes a further input to provide rapid shut-off of fuel flow when the engine reaches over-run. A cam 30a and follower 30b control the metering means, the cam being rotated by temperature sensitive means (not shown) and displaced axially by a bellows 25 sensitive to absolute pressure within the air inlet duct. The electromagnetic actuating means comprises a fixed winding 35 and a movable armature 38. If the engine approaches an over-run condition, the absolute pressure in the inlet falls and the bellows expands under the action of spring 25b causing armature 38 to approach winding 35 until at a pre-selected pressure, the armature is attracted on to the winding, moving cam 30a to stop fuel flow to the engine. When the over-run condition no longer pertains, e.g. when the throttle valve opens suddenly on acceleration, the absolute pressure in the inlet increases to a second pre-selected value at which the armature and winding are suddenly separated thereby again permitting fuel flow. Current for the winding may come from a circuit designed to be activated only when over-run conditions pertain i.e. with the throttle valve in, or nearly in its closed position and low-pressure in the inlet duct downstream of the throttle valve. The difference between the two pre-selected values of pressure may be increased by incorporating a permanent magnet in the magnetic circuit or bypassing a small standing current through the winding; alternatively the difference may be reduced by providing a spring which resists the attraction between armature and winding. A trim facility may be provided by modifying the electromagnetic actuating means to provide a more gradual increase in force between armature and winding, for example the winding may be movable in a region of magnetic flux or the coil may be fixed and the field structure arranged to move. In the latter instance the coil current may be dependent upon engine speed. Also the circuit may include a manually adjustable component such as a variable resistor.
