Patent GB-1179725-A (GB)
Title: Photographic Camera with a Photo-Electric Exposure Control System
IPC: G03B7/083
Filed: 1967-02-03
Abstract: 1,179,725. Photo-electric exposure control. AGFA-GEVAERT A.G. Feb.3, 1967 [Feb. 4, 1966], No.5408/67. Heading G2A. A camera has a first photo-electric exposure regulating means operated in accordance with higher light intensities, a second photo-electric exposure regulating means operated in accordance with lower light intensities, and a changeover device including means responsive to the prevailing illumination for changing from one regulating means to the other. Fig. 1 shows the type of shutter mechanism having a shutter-opening ring 1 and a shutter-closing ring 7, the shutter being tensioned by rotating the two rings together anticlockwise against springs 2 and 8. The shutter also acts as a diaphragm, the aperture being determined by the angle of relative rotation of the two rings. During the tensioning movement, initiated by rotation of the release lever 15 under the action of the release plunger 24, an electromagnet 23 is energized. This attracts a pawl 20 against the force of a spring 22, so that it engages behind a lug 7b of ring 7. Thus ring 7 is retained as ring 1 is released for return movement, so opening the shutter. Fig. 2 shows the time control circuit, the illumination received by photo-cell 37 determining the exposure time before electromagnet 23 is de-energized, so releasing pawl 20, and hence ring 7, to close the shutter again. If the incident illumination is low, a changeover switch 44 is actuated to switch photo-cell 37 out of circuit, and a second photo-cell 43 into circuit, cell 43 being tuned to effect a suitable increase in the exposure time. Switch 44 is acutated by the pointer 50 of a galvanometer 49 which receives current from a photo-voltaic cell 48. Pointer 50 deflects anti-clockwise against a return spring in proportion to the brightness of the illumination, and Fig. 2 shows the position for bright illumination, in which centre switch contact 46 engages contact 45 to connect photo-cell 37 in circuit. In low illumination, pointer 50 pivots clockwise until it touches contact 46, completing a circuit from the current source 33, which drives it further clockwise, so urging contact 46 against contact 47, thus switching cell 37 out and cell 43 in. Fig. 3 (not shown) is a modification in which the changeover of cells 43 and 37 is effected without switches. They are permanently connected in parallel, and one or the other is covered by a pivotable mask. Battery testing can be carried out by substituting a fixed resistor for a photoresistor.

Abstract: 1,126,473. Tubular wrappers. RHEINISCHE BLATTMETALL A.G. and M. VONCLAVEBOUHABEN. 9 Feb., 1966 [12 Feb., 1965], No. 5740/66. Heading F2P. [Also in Division B5]  In a method of making a tubular wrapper, such as a sausage casing, from a metal (e.g. aluminium) foil coated on one or both sides with a thermoplastic, the tubular wrapper is formed either by longitudinally lapping two edges one over the other, Figs. 2 or 3 (not shown), or by placing the inside of one edge longitudinally against the inside of the other edge and hotwelding the seam such that the width of the seam proper as determined by the width of the jaw of a seaming tool is narrower than the width of contact or overlap of the two edges, thus giving rise to narrow fusion zones 7 alongside the seam-proper. The partly fused zones of the stretched or unstretched plasticscoated metal foil are pressed together by manner of feeding foil past the seaming tool or by cooled or uncooled pressing tools. The method of welding of the seam proper may comprise thermal contact welding, impulse welding, inductive high frequency welding or capacitive high frequency welding. If the last-mentioned method is employed, the foil edge nearest the jaw of the welding tool contains no metal. If thermo-plastics coatings are provided on both sides of the metal foil, the thermoplastic coatings may be the same or different. After the tubular wrapper is filled, the ends may be closed by clips or by twisting or pressing the ends together.
