Title: Improvements in or relating to telecommunications systems
IPC: H04J3/10
Filed: 1966-03-28
Abstract: 1,087,148. Data transmission systems. SIEMENS A.G. March 28, 1966 [March 29, 1965], No. 13502/66. Heading H4P. In a system similar to that described in Specification 1,026,278 in which a plurality of subscribers is connected to a multi-channel channel, each receiver responding only to signals occurring simultaneously on a particular combination of channels, means is provided to ensure that no two subscribers transmit simultaneously. A signal representing the " delay time," i.e. the time from reception of a pulse on an input line to its subsequent transmission to the multi-channel facility, is also transmitted. When a pulse arrives on one of the input lines L1-Lu, e.g. on L1, it passes to a store PW1, and via differentiator DG1 1 sets bi-stable circuit K1 to 1. A capacitor C11, held charged while K1 is at 0, now discharges slowly. When a call up pulse J1 is received from the central control, the potential on the capacitor is read out. This potential represents the delay time. The pulse J1 also resets K1 to 0 to recharge the capacitor. This action sends a pulse via differentiator DG12 to read out the pulse stored in PW1 and also to generate an input line address signal at ArC. The address, the stored pulse, and the digitized delay time are passed to the multichannel facility. Alternatively, the delay time may be sent in analogue form on a separate channel. Should more than one trigger be set to 1 within a given brief period this fact is detected by unit PS which is fed by the 1-0 transitions when these triggers are reset by a call-up pulse. This pulse does not read out any of the associated capacitors since they all have the same potential; the pulse can read out only one capacitor at a time and that the one having the lowest potential. Unit PS pulses, this pulse resetting to 1 the triggers which the call-up pulse has just returned to 1, except that the trigger furthest from PS is not so reset. The next call-up pulse reads out the capacitor associated with this last trigger and causes signals as above described to be passed to the multiplex facility. The cycle repeats until all the delay times and data have been transmitted. The lines may be arranged in groups, Fig. 2 (not shown), each group having a group delay circuits similar to those described above. Corresponding to the lines L 1-Lu above are stores which contain the data from the lines of a group and the addresses of those lines. The delay times for these lines bias off the group delay time capacitor. The arrangement sends to the multiplex facility the data which has waited longest for transmission, the group and line addresses, and the delay time.

Abstract: 1489543 Circuits for supplying electron beam guns LEYBOLD - HERAEUS - VERWALTUNG GmbH 2 April 1976 [4 April 1975] 13554/76 Heading H2H [Also in Division G3] A circuit for controlling the beam current of an electron gun comprises an isolating transformer having a primary winding 31, a secondary winding 35 and a tertiary winding 42, an amplifier 29 one input of which is connected to a square wave pulse generator 20 and another input of which is connected to the tertiary winding, and a rectifier bridge 37 connected across the secondary winding. Pulses at a frequency of 10 MHz are supplied from the generator 20 to a multiplier 22 connected to a controller 24. An input 26 of the controller receives a signal representing the actual current of the electron beam and an input 25 receives a reference voltage signal, the amplitude of the pulses from the multiplier 22 being modulated so that the actual beam current equals the reference value. The amplified pulses are supplied to the transformer primary winding 31 and the pulses produced in the secondary winding 35 are rectified by the bridge 37 and supplied as a continuous pulse to the control grid 13 of the gun. The voltage across the tertiary winding 42 is fed back to the amplifier 29 which changes the wave shape of the voltage applied to the primary winding so that the pulsed output of the secondary winding has a square wave form. The gun may be used for electron beam welding.
