Abstract: `                                                Case 5671 HYDRAULIC RAMPING CIRCUIT FOR CONTROL VALVE     Abstract A hydraulically actuated control valve normally includes a hydraulic cylinder which has an internal piston connected through a shaft to the actuating mechanism in the control valve.  Ports are provided on each side of the pis-ton through which fluid flows to move the piston axially inside the cylinder.  The piston can be controlled electrically by an electro-hydraulic servo-controlled valve which includes an electrical input, a mechanical feedback input, and first and second outputs.  The outputs are connected to the two ports in the cylinder, a mechanical feedback is coupled to the shaft and the mechanical feedback input of the control valve, and an electrical circuit is coupled to the electrical input of the servo-controlled valve to signal the hydraulic portion of the valve to either move the shaft in a manner to close the valve or move the shaft in a manner to open the valve.  An improved control apparatus is provided which serially connects a solenoid valve in one of the lines of the hydraulic output of the servo-controlled valve with one of the ports in the cylinder.  The solenoid valve can be bypassed with a needle valve or a controllable valve.  A mechanical actuator on the shaft is coupled through an electrical circuit to the solenoid valve.  Thus, if the valve is signaled to close at a high rate of speed at a predetermined time, the mechanical circuit will trigger the solenoid valve, causing the speed to diminish to a preselected rate in order to prevent water hammer.  As the valve reaches a position where it is nearly closed, an electrically con-trolled valve can be substituted for the solenoid valve so that the rate of closure can be other than linear if desired. Furthermore, the circuit can be modified to change the opening of the valve in any desired manner.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE       An  orthopedic sandal for correction of hammer-toe  and X-toe (Halux valgus) being a dual lever arm arrangement pivotable on a horizontal axis transverse to the sole. A pressure element for pressing the toes downward is on one arm and the other arm is fastened to the rearward portion of the foot so that as the foot is lifted, the pressure element is pressed downwardly on the hammer-toes.        Additionally, several mechanisms for correcting X-toe can operate in conjunction with the lever arm arrangement.  A strap loop can be pulled by the move-ment of the pressure element.  A two-chamber hydraulic pneumatic system actuated by the pressure element pres-sing the hammer toes can push on the X-toe.  An elastic resilient member can push the X-toe.  A fourth mechani-cal mechanism using a nut-and-threaded shaft to turn a paddle pushing the X-toe can be actuated by foot pressure on a flexible pad in the sole.  The pressure on the hammer-toes can be adjusted depending on the fulcrum point of the lever arm arrangement.  The pressure on the X-toe can be arranged to be continuous with augmentation whenever the lever arm arrangement is operated.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE      A microprogrammed pipeline data processing unit in-cludes a first control store, a second control store and 2 plurality of hardware sequence control circuits.  The first control store includes a plurality of storage locations, each location for storing an address field and a control se-quence field for each program instruction required to be executed by the processing unit.  The second control store includes a plurality of groups of storage locations, each group storing microinstruction required for executing at least a portion of at least one program instruction.  Each sequence includes at least one microinstruction which con-tains a restart field coded to specify the conditions under which the hardware sequence circuits continue instruction execution.  For each program instruction which can not be executed by the plurality of hardware sequence circuits in a pipeline mode, the control sequence field is coded to in-clude a predetermined bit pattern.  Then decoded, the hard-ware sequence circuits is conditioned to enter an escape state enabling control to be transferred to a sequence specified by the address field.  Instruction execution pro-ceeds under microprogram control while the hardware sequence circuits remain in the same state.  Upon the decoding of a microinstruction containing a restart field, the hardware sequence circuits are switched from the escape state to a state which enables the continuing of hardware instruction execution in a pipeline mode.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           This disclosure depicts a surface wave transmitting device having a piezoelectric surface wave propagative medium and interdigitated comb-type input and output transducers on a surface of said medium. The input transducer is responsive to a source of input signals for launching on the surface of the medium surface waves of predetermined center wavelength.  The output transducer receives the surface waves from the input transducer and develops output signals.  The device is improved by one of the input and output transducers having at a transducer boundary or at an internal irregularity in the transducer tooth pattern a first tooth on a first comb connected to its associated bus bar.  On an opposed second comb, there is provided a second tooth collinear with the first tooth but electrically isolated from its associated bus bar.  Spurious surface waves reflected from the first and second teeth of the one transducer are in canceling phase relationship due to the fact that the first tooth is electrically connected to the associated comb bus bar while said second tooth is not.  The other of the input and output transducers is of sufficient width on the surface of the medium to intercept and electrically destructively combine the out-of-phase spurious waves reflected from the first and second teeth.

Abstract: -22-                   RCA 73,595 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A television phase-lock (AFPC) loop is used to maintain a horizontal oscillator in synchronism with horizontal synchronizing signals in the presence of noise. The AFPC loop includes a phase detector and a controlled oscillator.  The synchronizing signals are applied to one input of the phase detector and the oscillator output is applied to the other phase-detector input. The phase-detector output is coupled back to the oscillator control input to maintain the oscillator output in frequency synchronism.  During the vertical synchronizing and equalizing pulse intervals, the synchronizing signals applied to the AFPC phase detector increase in frequency. The increase in frequency may decrease the AFPC loop gain or unsynchronize the loop.  This effect is overcome by providing a second output from the horizontal oscillator at a frequency higher than, but related to the frequency of the desired output, and using the higher frequency to drive the phase detector.  A phase ambiguity results from the higher-frequency control.  The phase ambiguity is resolved by a controlled switch which couples the high-frequency oscillator output to the phase detector during the vertical synchronizing and equalizing pulse intervals and couples the desired oscillator output signal to the phase detector input at other times.

Abstract: TELEMETRY SYSTEM FOR MONITORING HOSPITAL PATIENT TEMPERATURE                       ABSTRACT     Hospital patient temperatures are monitored by providing each patient with a battery powered transmitter containing a thermister and reference resistor which is positioned over the patient's carotid artery.  A receiver, carried by a nurse, includes an actuator for closing a reed switch in a transmitter near which it is positioned to activate that transmitter.  Upon actuation of the transmitter, the patient's temperature varies the duty cycle of a high frequency transmitter output.  The outputs of a number of transmitters, each associated with a different patient are elicited, one by one, and monitored by the receiver which contains a demod-ulator connected to a microprocessor coupled to a visual disply.  The microprocessor calculates patient temperature selectively in Fahrenheit and Centigrade conventions. The microprocessor also detects low battery condition in the transmitter.  The receiver includes a self-calibration test and low battery indication circuits.
