Abstract: 4671. Hopkins, N. M. Feb. 24. Electric speed indicators with damping - devices.-In a speed indicator comprising an electric motor-meter actuated by two-phase currents from an inductor generator driven by the vehicle &c., the windings of the motor and generator are connected directly without the use of slip-rings &c. Means for automatically compensating for temperature effects are provided together with magnetic damping-means. Referring to Figs. 2, 3, and 4, which show the meter, a magnet is built up of a number of laminµ 7 held together by rivets and screws and formed with pole extensions 8 wound with coils 15. Between these poles 8 and a central core 17 depends a cup 26 secured to a spindle 25 which also carries a shallow cup 27 provided with speed graduations on its external wall. The cup 26 is composed of aluminium with a lining 29 of copper. The rotation of the cup is restrained by a hair-spring 35 having one end soldered to a clip on the spindle 25, the spring being restrained at a point a little distance from the soldered end; the other end of the spring is secured to an adjustable arm 39. The movements are damped by means of a fixed magnet 43, the poles of which act on the adjacent wall of the cup 27. The cups are fixed to the spindle by means of ferrules internally spirally grooved to receive the solder. In order that changes in temperature shall have no effect on the readings, a reactance coil is interposed in the circuit to the meter. This reactance coil consists of a core with a winding 45 and pole-pieces 46. An armature 47 with upstanding flanges 48 is pivoted on a pin 49 and is moved one way or the other by a bimetallic strip 50 so as to bridge more or less the gap between the poles. The current-generator, shown in Figs. 9 and 10, comprises a pair of inductors 63, 64 mounted at a mutual angle of 45 degrees on a spindle 65 rotated by the vehicle &c., and a number of laminµ 53 united by soft iron rivets 55 and formed with a common pole 57 and a pair of coil wound poles 59, 60. An electro-magnetic odometer may be actuated by a current interrupter consisting of a rotary disk 74 having a conducting plate 75 adapted to bridge a pair of contacts 76 in the odometer circuit. An automatic and a non-automatic reactance coil may be inserted in each phase circuit between the generator and the meter.

Filed: 2004-04-29
Abstract: he Human Chest Phantom (HCP) setup for the assessment of the imaging quality of a radiological machine, as it appearss in Diagram 1, comprises a shell of clear Perspex with a total thickness of about 2-3 cm. Its dimensions are such that is fits on a small cassette. It contains a high purity copper sheet, of suitable dimensions and thickness so that its absorbance of x-rays is equivalent to that of an average human body. It also contains, glued on its centre, a second high purity copper sheet of suitablle thickness and dimensions, with holes on the circumference of an inscribed circle. The holes have various diameters, the smaller being 0,5, 0,25 or 0.1 mm according to the machine (fluoroscopy, radiography or mammography) it will be used for. In parallel with the large side of the HCP, a high puurity aluminium sheet scale is embedded of suitable size and thickness. The sheets are placeddd so that they create a scale of comparable length to the length of the HCP, with sufficient width for each step. It is characterized by the fact that the assessment procedure comprises the exposure (in radiography or fluoroscopy) of the HCP and by the fact that the maximum visible number of holes and steps on film or on screen is recorded to be cmpared to the corresponding numbers which will be found in the future, daily assessment of the imaging system. The imaging of the HCP is done with the same parameter settings and geometry on the x-ray machine.
