Title: A method of and an apparatus for producing an optical multi-fibre cable element
IPC: G02B6/44
Filed: 1990-11-15
Granted: 1993-03-11
Abstract: A method of producing an optical multi-fibre conductor element (11) by extruding (5) a secondary sheathing (6) loosely around a fibre bundle of several optical fibres (1); providing the fibres with a desired extra length (8) with respect to the secondary sheathing; and reeling the conductor element onto a receiving reel (12). In order to provide an extra length to compensate for differences occurring in the tension of the fibres and to avoid permanent variation in the length of the fibres in the secondary-sheathed fibre bundle, the fibres are spread (14, 15) side by side before the extrusion of the secondary sheathing, and passed side by side around an equalizer wheel (13), and further to the extruder while still positioned side by side. An apparatus for realizing the invention comprises means (14, 15) for spreading the fibres before the extruder (5); and an equalizer wheel (13) around which the fibres are arranged to be passed side by side.

Title: Control of series-resonant inductive pickups
Inventor: BOYS JOHN TALBOT
IPC: H02J17/00
Filed: 2000-09-06
Granted: 2004-05-06
Abstract: A series resonant inductive pickup has a bi-directional solid state switch in series with an inductor and a capacitor is controlled by switch control elements capable of causing the switching elements to repetitively be in either an open or a closed state, so that by varying the closed: open ratio of the switch the time-averaged amount of power picked up by the power pickup can be controlled. Switch is controlled by output of a voltage comparing circuit. A reference voltage source provides a basis for comparison of some fraction of a supply voltage in order to cause the switch to operate. The magnitude of capacitance in relation to the current drawn by the load determines the repetition rate of ON or OFF commands to the switch. If the current drawn by the load tends to zero, the proportion of time during which the switch is open will tend to 100%.

Title: Quantising display circuit for brightness or exposure time - has differential amplifier comparators with different thresholds and selector circuit with AND=gates and inverters
IPC: G01J1/44
Filed: 1972-06-06
Abstract: Input information representing, e.g. object brightness or exposure time for photography is applied to N comparator circuits (1-1, 1-N), each containing a two transistor differential amplifier. Reference voltages from a potential divider (2) define thresholds for each comparator. The common emitter resistance of each amplifier is formed by the collector-emitter path of a further transistor so that the amplifier's digital output signal is independent of the corresponding reference voltage. The comparator's outputs are connected to a selection circuit (3) whose outputs are in turn connected to N stores (4-1, 4-N) driving N displays (6). The selection circuit consists of N AND-gates each of which has one input connected to the output of the correspondingly numbered comparator and a second input connected via an inverter to the next higher numbered comparator.
Patent DE-2747420-B2 (DE)
IPC: G04G99/00
Filed: 1977-10-21
Abstract: Electronic time-measuring device having an oscillator (9) and a frequency divider (10) whose output controls a switching device (12, 13), the frequency divider being assigned a storage element (7) which in the stored, active state prevents the resetting of the frequency divider in the event of failure of the supply voltage, and upon expiry of the time interval to be measured is discharged from the output of the frequency divider and rendered inactive. Consequently, the frequency divider is reset in the case of normal reconnection of the device, but not in the case when the supply voltage returns after a failure of the main source. The time-measuring device can be applied chiefly as a time switch for controlling processing and manipulating systems. <IMAGE>
