Title: Improvements relating to guided missiles
IPC: F41G7/30
Filed: 1963-10-11
Abstract: 1,061,588. Controlling missiles. BOFORS A.B. Oct. 11, 1963 [Oct. 20, 1962], No. 40300/63. Heading B7G. In a guided missile of the kind having spoilers controlled by a slave control device in the missile for effecting directional guidance thereof in response to command signals received through a wire connection from a remote and relatively stationary command unit, the slave control device contains means to transmit via the wire connection to the command unit information dependent on the speed of rotation of the missile and the command unit contains means responsive to said speed dependent information to give the command signal a frequency which is dependent on the speed of rotation of the missile. A missile 2, controlled through wires 11, 12 from a ground-based control device 1, comprises two pairs of wings at right-angles, one pair 3, 4 only being shown in Fig. 1, the wings having control spoilers 5, 5<SP>1</SP>, respectively. Control device 1 has two manually operable knobs 6 and 6<SP>1</SP>, respectively, guiding the missile vertically and laterally. Knob 6 controls a unit 7 to generate a voltage which is fed to a filter network 8 to eliminate small inadvertent movements of knob 6, the output from which filter is fed to a pulse width modulator 9, also fed with a saw-tooth voltage of a predetermined frequency from a unit 25. The signal generated in modulator 9 has the same frequency as the sawtooth voltage, but a square waveform and the signal from unit 8 determines the length of the two half-waves of the signal formed in the unit 9 such that the half-waves will have the same length only when knob 6 is in the neutral position. Units 6<SP>1</SP>-9<SP>1</SP> function in the same way as units 6-9 and the signals from units 9 and 9<SP>1</SP> are fed to a unit 27 in which the signal from unit 9 is modulated by the signal from unit 91 whereby they control respectively the amplitude and the polarity of the signal emanating from unit 27. This signal is fed over wire 11 to a filter network 16 in the missile and then to a demodulator 17 which resolves the signal into its original parts, the signal from 9 being fed to an amplifier 18 and that from 91 to an amplifier 18<SP>1</SP>, the separate signals being transmitted to a commutator 19 which is connected so as to feed each signal to one pair of spoilers to provide vertical and lateral directional control movements to the missile. A gyro stabilized contact member 14 transmits pulses at a rate proportional to the speed of the missile back to a detector unit 15 in control unit 1, which results in a D.C. voltage used to control the frequency of saw-tooth generator 25, the signal from which is fed via conductor 26 to units 9, 9<SP>1</SP>

The conductive wall and cathode bus-bar may be unitary, as shown, and either be of Cu or an explosion welded composite of Cu with iron or steel. The metal cathode supports may also comprise this composite, and may have teeth 9 along their edges welded to the foraminous plates and be of increasing cross-section, as shown, towards the conductive wall. Coated valve metal blade anodes may be used, maintained properly spaced by alignment strips of valve metal mounted along their tops, Fig. 16 (not shown).

Abstract: 1,047,094. Hydraulic mine roof supports. ELECTRO-HYDRAULICS Ltd. Oct. 8, 1965 [Oct. 9, 1964], No. 41297/64. Heading F1P. An advanceable double-acting hydraulic mine roof support prop 1 Fig. 1 (not shown) is lowered to a predetermined extent prior to advancement either by forcing a predetermined volume of fluid into its upper end or by withdrawing a predetermined volume from its lower end by means of a fluid actuated free piston 12 or diaphragm. During setting of the prop by admission of pressure fluid to its lower end through a line 4, a lock valve 5 and a line 6 fluid displaced from the upper end first displaces piston 12 to that end of a cylinder 11 which is connected to an exhaust line 7 and is then vented through a non-return valve 8 and a restriction 9 in parallel with cylinder connections. Lines 4, 7 lead to a two-position valve such as valve 26 of Fig. 4 (not shown) which when reversed supplies pressure to line 7 and to a branch line 14 thereof to open valve 5 whereby the lower end of the prop is connected to exhaust whilst pressure in line 7 moves piston 12 to the other end of cylinder 11 and displaces the fluid into the upper end of the prop. In a modification restriction 9 is eliminated and valve 8 is replaced by a non-return valve 15 Fig. 3 (not shown) which can be opened mechanically when the prop has been lowered by a predetermined extent beyond that effected by the fluid displaced by piston 12. In a further modification a piston 18 Fig. 4 (not shown) has sides of differing area and with its cylinder 17 forms a volume transformer which during setting of the prop has its normal area side connected to a branch 30 if the supply duct 4 and its large area connected through a pressure responsive valve 21 to a vent line 22. On reversing two way valve 26 the small side of piston 18 is connected to exhaust whilst the larger side is connected to the lower end of the prop to receive said predetermined volume of fluid therefrom.

Abstract: 1363032 Propelling otherwise than by motors; landing wheels V D DALTON 7 Sept 1972 [20 Sept 1971] 41628/72 Headings B7B and B7J A dolly device for moving a vehicle, such as a house and boat trailer or aircraft, comprises a frame 18 swivellable with respect to a part of the vehicle and supporting a wheel for rotation in either angular sense, driving members 34, 36 selectively movable into one of two positions of driving engagement with a driven member 32 fixed to the wheel and driven by a reciprocable actuating member 42 articulately connected to the driving members 34, 36 which are moved in unison, whereby in operation each driving member may be overrun by the driven member 32 when another driving member is applying driving force to the driven member. In a preferred embodiment, yoke members 38, 40 connected by linkage 48, 50 may be oscillated about axle 16 by detachable handle 42 in unison and in the same generally vertical direction. Pawls 34, 36 each having teeth 68, 70 are pivotally mounted on the yoke members and have fixed thereto a spring 74 which has a manual grip 76, Fig. 4, by which the associated pawl may be turned about pin 64 so as to move one or other of the pawl teeth 68, 70 into engagement with a sprocket wheel 32. The selected position of the pawl is releasably maintained by positioning pins 78, 80 provided on each of the yoke legs 65, 66. Thus according to the position of driving engagement of the pawls with the sprocket wheel 32 reciprocation of the handle 42 causes rotation of the wheel in the associated direction or the wheel is locked against rolling in either direction. In a modification, Fig. 7, rectilinear pawls 84, 86 each have a positioning handle 90 fixed to the pivot pin 64<SP>1</SP> and a biasing spring 92 having one end anchored to the pawl and the other to the yoke leg 65 or 66. The springs 92 are so formed as to releasably maintain sprocket engaging pins 88 in either the upward or downward engagement with the sprocket wheel as shown in Fig. 7. A remote control may be provided for controlling one of the pawls to facilitate an emergency stop. The pawls may be replaced by pinch rollers in an alternative embodiment and the linkage between the yoke members may be replaced by a pair of intermeshing gear segments. It is also envisaged that the linkage interconnecting the yokes be situated on the same side of the wheel as the sprocket and pawls, or to use two ground engaging wheels sandwiching the linkage, sprocket and pawls.
