Abstract: 406,852. Motors. INTERNATIONAL GENERAL ELECTRIC CO., Inc., 120, Broadway, New York, U.S.A.-(Assignees of Allgemeine Elektricitats-Ges. ; 2, Friedrich Karl-Ufer, Berlin.) Jan 6, 1933, No. 546. Convention date, Jan. 6, 1932. [Class 35.] Machines with vapour and like rectifiers in place of commutators.-Motors of this type employing grid-controlled vessels are provided with two collectors having a small number of segments to which consecutive armature tappings are alternately connected and which serve to switch over the windings in the absence of current. In the form shown in Fig. 1, the tappings of a series motor armature are connected to the two collectors 2, 3 on each of which rest brushes connected to grid controlled vessels 4-7 connected to the continuous current supply 8. The insulating piece between the collector segments is greater than the brush width. A commutator (not shown) on the armature shaft controls the tube grids and the arrangement is such that as one brush reaches a segment, the tube 6 becomes conductive and a negative potential is applied to grid 4, a commutating voltage being induced in the corresponding part of the winding which is short-circuited. Whilst the said brush is conducting a segment approaches the brush on the other collector and the current is commutated from vessel 6 to 4. In the alternating current arrangement shown in Fig. 4, there are two oppositely connected valves per brush and the motor has exciting compensating and commutating windings 14, 15, 16 respectively. As alternatives, the armature windings may be star connected there being one brush and one discharge tube per collector in the continuous current arrangement, one side of the supply being connected to the neutral point of the winding, and the number of discharge tubes can be reduced to four for alternating current.

Abstract: 662,335. Frequency and phase difference measurements. PHILIPS ELECTRICAL, Ltd. Jan. 11, 1949 [Jan. 14, 1948], No. 738/49. Class 37. [Also in Group XXXV] A discriminator circuit for producing a direct voltage the polarity of which varies with the sense of the frequency or phase difference between two alternating voltages, particularly for producing a control voltage for automatic frequency correction, in which relatively phaseshifted components of one of the alternating voltages are mixed with the other alternating voltage in a mixing stage comprising two amplifying tubes, the relative phase or amplitude difference of the lower frequency beat voltage thus produced being converted into the desired direct voltage, is characterized in that the amplifying tubes, which act as mixing tubes, are cross-coupled and the desired direct voltage is derived from a point in the output circuit of the tubes. The two alternating voltages f1, f2 are fed to input terminals 1, 2. The voltage f1 is fed in phase through coupling condensers 3, 4 to the anodes of triode mixing tubes 5, 6 the interconnected cathodes of which are earthed for the input frequencies through a condenser 7. By means of a phase-shifting network comprising resistances 10, 11 and condensers 8, 9, the voltage f2 has derived from it two quadrature components which are fed through grid condensers 12, 13 to the control grids of the mixing triodes 5, 6. The mixing tubes 5, 6 are cross-coupled by connecting the control grid of each tube, through a resistance 14, 15, to a tapping point on a resistance 16, 17 connected between the anode and cathode of the other mixing tube. A direct output voltage e is set up across the output condenser 18 of a smoothing filter 18, 19 connected to the anode of the mixing tube 6. The direct cross-wise coupling of the mixing tubes may be replaced by a capacitative, inductive, or mixed coupling. The output voltage may be taken from resistances included in the cathode leads. The time constant of the mixing tube circuits included between the terminals 1 should be shorter than one period of the maximum beat frequency to be produced.

IPC: C07C29/88
Filed: 1960-01-11
Abstract: The quality of an oxo alcohol is improved by mixing it with sulphuric acid and separating the alcohol from the resulting mixture.  The process is particularly suitable for improving the quality of oxo alcohols containing 7 or more carbon atoms.  The process may be applied to crude oxo alcohols but preferably the crude product is previously refined to give an alcohol product boiling over a narrow range of temperature.  Generally the amount of sulphuric acid used is 0.001-0.1% by weight of the alcohol although amounts up to 0.8% may be used.  The sulphuric acid may be used in concentrated form and the mixture then distilled. Alternatively, the alcohol may be mixed with water and sulphuric acid, the alcohol layer then being separated from the aqueous layer, washed with water and distilled.  The aqueous solution of sulphuric acid preferably contains up to 25% by weight of acid. The alcohol is contacted with the sulphuric acid at room temperature or above, e.g. up to 80 DEG C.  Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 874,583.
