Abstract: ABSTRACT         The disclosure teaches various logic circuits operating with Dynamic Differential Logic (DDL).  In a particular embodiment MOS transistors of n-channel type are used with circuits arranged to avoid any dc path from clock input to ground.  The input capacitance of the active devices is used for temporary storage thereby reducing circuit complexities.  Coupling between stages is provided by clock driven transistors connected so that the transistor at the higher voltage side cuts off early in the period of clock pulse decay, thereby isolating adjacent stages without unnecessary delay.       The use of such circuits in array processors is described.

Abstract: ABSTRACT          Disclosed is a voltage regulator for an a.c. charging generator.  The regulator consists of a rectifier for converting the a.c. output of the generator to d.c.  A battery will be connected to the output of the rectifier. The regulator includes comparison means for comparing the battery voltage with a reference voltage and a power transistor controlled by the output of the comparison means for controlling the current flowing through a field coil of the a.c. generator.  The reference voltage generation circuit comprises a voltage divider connected to a constant voltage power source to provide its divided voltage as the reference voltage.  A plurality of transistors is connected in parallel with a part of the voltage divider. A conduction control circuit controls the transistors in accordance with the ambient temperature, so that the reference voltage is determined in accordance with such temperature.  The result is a voltage regulator of simple construction that exhibits better temperature characteristics than hitherto available.

Abstract: ABSTRACT      A frost damage proofed pile for installment in a frigid district where the pile is subjected to a freezing and frost heaving force, such as permanently or seasonally frozen soil terrain.  A tubular sheath member is fitted over the pile surface and has a length longer than the thickness of an active or seasonally frozen soil layer of the terrain in which the pile is installed.  At least a portion of said length of the pile is formed as an extensible section, and at least the lower end of said sheath member is secured to the pile at or below a position corresponding to the bottom region of said active or seasonally frozen soil layer.  A fluid material is filled in a space defined between the pile and the sheath member.  The frost heaving force caused to exist upon freezing of the active or seasonally frozen soil layer as well as negative friction caused to exist in summer are inhibited from affecting the pile due to sliding of the sheath member relative to the pile.

Abstract: ABSTRACT       COOKING VESSEL AND WHISTLING KNOB THEREFORE           A cooking vessel is provided with a whistling knob which has an internal passage for carrying steam from a hole in the cooking vessel to a rotary whistle chamber molded in the knob.  The whistle chamber is displaced from and eccentric to the knob axis.  The lower surface of the knob has a cavity which surrounds the knob axis, providing a steam passage inlet which is in communication with the hole in the cooking vessel regardless of the angular position of the knob relative to its axis.  From the inlet cavity, steam passes through a vertically extending passage, a plenum chamber and a horizontally extending passage which introduces steam into the whistle chamber at an angle which causes an audible whistle and rotary movement of the steam.  The whistle chamber has an outlet which may be opened and closed by rotational movement of a valve ring which extends circumferential around the knob.  The body of the knob is formed of two parts which are separable to permit removal of the valve ring and cleaning of the internal portions of the knob.  A temperature indicating device may be incorporated in the knob.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure Adjustable Control Console In the operator's station of a vehicle, it has been common practice to mount the steering wheel and vehicle control levers on an adjustable control console.  The console may then be moved fore and aft to accommodate the individual operators to enhance their comfort.  Existing mechanical latching mechanisms provide only a selected number of positions to which the control console may be place, and are often cumbersome.  Hydraulic cylinders incorporated into an adjustable control console design provide an unlimited number of positions that the control console may assume.  These designs, however, are quite complex.          Actuating apparatus is positioned about a pivot shaft that is utilized in the pivotal mounting of the control console to the vehicle frame.  The actuating apparatus serves as a mounting member for a position locking device and allows the control console to be locked in a position anywhere between its maximum travel limits.  A centering mechanism is also mounted about the pivot shaft to maintain the actuating means in a preselected position.  With the actuating apparatus and the centering mechanism mounted about the pivot shaft the entire mechanism is very effective and compact in structure.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          An energy transfer network is used to ensure reliable operation of a low water sensing system for a boiler.  The energy transfer network provides a sufficient time interval to make sure that wave action and boiling within the boiler do not simulate the loss of water.  The energy transfer network is structured to be discharged in the event water actually drops below an appropriate level.  The energy transfer network provides for the continuous presence of water so that boiling action does not simulate an artificially high (presence of) water level.
