Patent FI-981960-A (FI)
Inventor: TUUNANEN HEIKKI
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 1998-09-11
Abstract: The invention is based on the idea that in an intelligent network the order of execution of service programs at one point during the call, such as the detection point, is defined, and the service programs are contacted in this order until instructions are received to leave the point or release the call. The order of execution is defined by dealing with one category of service-related detection points after another, and within each category with a control relationship the order of execution is defined by a priority set for service programs.

Title: Improvements relating to gyroscopes
IPC: G01C19/38
Filed: 1954-01-13
Abstract: 751,018. Electric indicating systems. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. Jan. 13, 1954 [Jan. 13. 1953]. No. 1025/54. Class 40(1) [Also in Group XX] In. a gyroscope, magnetic-leakage-flux from the stator of the electric rotor-drivemotor induces in one pair of pick-off coils, an e.m.f. of magnitude and phase sense corresponding to the magnitude and sense of the deviation of the spin-axis from a normal direction. As shown, applied to a directional gyro, the main gimbal 2 mounted for rotation about the major (vertical) axis 4-4 in the fixed outer frame 1, carries pick-off coils 16, 17 mounted in planes parallel to the main gimbal frame and Parallel lel to the main gimbal frame and parallel to the major axis. As described in Specification 740,796 [Group XX], the gyro rotor preferably comprises symmetrical rotor halves 7, 8 rotatable on a shaft 9 about the spin axis 10-10, the rotor 'bearings being carrier by a bar-shaped member 11 positioned between the rotor halves and pivoted by trunnions 12 in the main-gimbal frame about the minor axis 6-6. The spin axis 10-10 is normally perpendicular to the major axis 4-4 so that leakage flux from the rotor drive induction motor stator 14-15, which is also perpendicular to the spin axis, has zero coupling with the pick-off coils. As the spin axis varies from the perpendicular relative to the major axis, the leakage flux will induce an output in the series connected coils 16, 17 of corresponding magnitude and phase sense. This output after amplification in a phase-sense sensitive amplifier 20 may actuate a torque motor 23, 24 operating on the major axis 4-4 to precess the gyro about the minor axis 6-6 and so restore the spin axis to its normal horizontal position. Phase adjustments of the pick-off signals relative to a reference signal required in the phasesensitive amplifier are effected by angularly adjusting the stator of the gyro rotor drive motor about the spin axis. The output coils 16, 17 may be tilted slightly out of parallel to adjust the pick-off output to zero in the normal position. Modifications. The invention may be applied to a gyro-vertical or rate-gyro. In the case of a gyro-vertical an additional winding may be mounted on the outer frame, the outputs derived from the two windings giving pitch and bank displacements of the supporting craft referred to the gyro-vertical spin axis, and operating attitude indicators. The output winding when fitted on the main gimbal, may also be used to carry D.C. signals for precessing the gyro about its major axis particularly in the case of a slaved directional gyro when being corrected azimuthally by a magnetic or fluxgate compass. The output winding, in this case, functions as the torque motor winding and co-operates with permanent magnets suitably disposed on the rotor structure to produce, by interaction, torques about the minor gyro axis, so as to precess the gyro about the major axis.

Abstract: 971,210. Measuring rotary imbalance electrically. W. & T. AVERY Ltd. Jan. 16,1961 [Jan. 29, 1960], No. 1679/61. Heading G1N. [Also in Division G4] In an electrical calculating apparatus for converting voltages proportional to unbalance forces measured at the planes of the bearings of an object to be balanced on a subcritical or subresonant balance to voltages proportional to the unbalance forces obtaining at equilibrium planes located at given desired distances from the bearings, so that the moments caused by the unbalance may be compensated, the forces of unbalance at the two bearing planes are measured by dynamometers, the signals from an output circuit of each dynamometer, e.g. 1 and 2, being connected to potentiometers 7 and 8 respectively to form a product with a quantity representing the separation between the equilibrium and bearing planes, which is set into each potentiometer, the potentiometers being connected together so that these products are summed. This output sum is connected to a further tapped potentiometer 10 which provides a quotient of the sum of the products, with a number representing the separation between the equilibrium planes, this quotient being combined both with a voltage from the first dynamometer to give an output at 12 and with one from the second dynamometer to given an output at 13, these outputs being the required converted voltages. The equations which the system is solving may be set out as where U 1  and U 2  are the required output voltages, U A  and U B  are the voltages derived from the dynamometers; 1 1  and 1 2  are the distances between the equilibrium planes and the bearing planes, these values being set into the potentiometers 7, 8; and e is the distance between the equilibrium planes set into the potentiometer 10. In the described embodiments an amplifier 9 is included in the circuit between the output of the product potentiometers 7 and 8 and the input to the quotient potentiometer 10. The embodiment of Fig. 1 includes reversing switches to allow outputs from the dynamometers of either polarity to be used, but further embodiments (Figs. 2 and 3 not shown) include circuit modifications designed to avoid this. The embodiment of Fig. 3 also includes modifications such that only one output from each dynamometer is required.
