Title: Circuit arrangement for actuating an electric circuit by means of an instruction word
IPC: G06F7/02
Filed: 1966-04-26
Abstract: 1,102,483. Instruction decoders. TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET L. M. ERICSSON. 26 April, 1966 [27 April, 1965], No. 18320/66. Headings G4A and G4H. In an instruction word decoder all instruction words commencing with the same character, e.g. the letter T have a different character in a preselected word position, e.g. the sixth position, so that when the first character of an instruction word stored in a buffer BR is read out the character in the preselected position is consequentially fed to a comparator JK for comparison with all possible characters in that position. In the embodiment described the first character in the buffer register entered from a keyboard TB is read out to a diode matrix AK1 controlling a register REG3 and a magnetic core memory NT. The coded outputs from the memory MT which represent the address of the portion of a memory MA associated with the first character T of the input word are fed via a register REG1 and an address translator AK2 to cause read out of the first column of cores in the portion TF of the memory MA. This causes the character in the sixth position of the input word to be fed to a register TR. Clock pulses applied to the register REG1 each modify the address stored in it by one binary unit so that the remaining columns in the memory TL are sequentially fed to the comparator JK until coincidence is reached. An output pulse from the comparator is then applied to AND gates A01 . . . A0n, . . . T01 . . . TOn together with a pulse from register REG3 to the group of gates associated with the letter T and a pulse is also applied from a register REG2 indicating which column of the memory TF was being read out so that only one of the output leads ABS . . . TAS is energized. The apparatus may be used for controlling telephone systems or computers.

Title: Manufacture of aminoalcohols
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1929-06-14
Abstract: 313,617. Skita, A., and Keil, F. June 15, 1928, [Convention date]. Amino-alcohols are prepared by the catalytic hydrogenation of a monohydroxy-monocarbony compound, a polyhydroxy-monocarbonyl compound or a dicarbonyl compound, in the presence of ammonia or an amine. In the case of the monohydroxy- and polyhydroxy - monocarbonyl compounds, the carbonyl group alone reacts with the ammonia or amine; whilst with dicarbonyl compounds only one carbonyl group so reacts, the other being simultaneously reduced to the alcohol stage. The products are useful therapeutically. Examples are given of the preparation of (1) N- cyclohexylamino-(2)-propanol-(1) from oxyacetone and cyclohexylamine, (2) N-cyclohexylamino-(2)- pentanol-(4) from acetylacetone and cyclohexylamine, (3) N - cvclohexyl - arabinamine from arabinose and cyclohexylamine, (4) N-cyclohexylmannamine from mannose and cyclohexylamine, (5) 1 : 2-diphenyl-2-N-methylaminethanol (1) from benzil and methylamine, (6) 1-phenyl-2-N- methylaminopropanol-(1) (ephedrine) from acetylbenzoyl and methylamine, (7) 2-N-dimethylaminopentanol-(4) from acetylacetone and dimethylamine, (8) CH3.CHOH.CH2CH(CH3).NH.CH2. CH2OH from acetylacetone and aminoethanol, (9) 4-phenylaminobutanol-(2) from aldol and aniline, and (10) 1: 2-p-methoxyphenyl-2-N- methylamino-ethanol-(1) from anisil and methylamine. In each case, the materials are treated at room temperature with hydrogen under 3 atmospheres pressure in the presence of colloidal platinum; after the required amount of hydrogen has been absorbed, the platinum is precipitated by heating with hydrochloric acid, and the product extracted from the filtrate. Specification 297,484 is referred to.

Title: Electric remote control apparatus
Inventor: SWORTH FREDERICK JAMES HAWK
IPC: G05D3/12
Filed: 1958-06-09
Abstract: 863,327. Selective control systems. ROLLSROYCE Ltd. July 3, 1959 [June 9, 1958], No. 18427/58. Class 40 (1). [Also in Group XXIV] In a selective control system of the kind in which one of a plurality of parallel leads P, N, D, L, R is marked by the selector 1, the receiver being a seeking device which is driven until it finds the marked lead, there are a further series of circuits a, b, c, d, e on the selector and receiver which, when the seeking device over-shoots the marked lead, reverse the driving means before the next selective position is reached. The apparatus is described applied to the control of a gear-box, the gears being selected by the rotation of arm 4. Each of the positions P, N, D, L and R are gearselecting positions and the intermediate contacts prevent an adjacent gear being engaged by the over-shoot. The selector switch 1 has segments 11 and 12 connected to negative and positive supply respectively. The selected terminal (P, as shown) is disconnected. Leads on one side of the marked one are energized negatively and those on the other side are positive. The arm 4 is connected to relays 14, 15 connected to negative and positive source, so that if the arm contacts a positive lead relay 14 operates and if it contacts a negative lead relay 15 operates. The driving motor 5 has two field windings F1, F2, energized respectively by relays 15 and 14 and oppositely polarized to cause the motor to run in one direction or the other. The arrangement is such that the arm 14 is always driven towards the marked lead. If the selector is moved to position N, leads P and a become negative and b, D, &c. become positive. Arm 4 picks up negative voltage from lead P and relay 15 operates to energize field winding F1, the motor then running to drive the arm 4 towards N. If it over-shoots it engages lead b before reaching the next gear-engaging position D. This lead is now positive, and the motor reverses, bringing the arm 4 back to the marked position N. Braking means may be included to bring the motor to rest as soon as possible after reaching the selected position. Segments m and n return the arm when it over-shoots the end positions R and P.

Abstract: 139,105. ErnÚ, G. Aug. 6, 1919. Fastenings for doors.-In doors of hotel-rooms, closets, &c., the operation of the inside handle to close the door from the inside automatically blocks the outside handle against movement. Figs. 1 and 3 show the position of the parts when the room &c. is unoccupied. The outside handle 4 can then be operated, a follower 6 on its spindle withdrawing the bolt 50, and a projection 8 on the follower entering a recess 11<1> in the wheel 11. The bolt is shot forward again by the spring 17. When The bolt is again withdrawn by the inside handle 5 to close the door, a tooth on its follower 7 operates the star wheel 12 and turns the wheel 11 to obstruct the movement of the follower 6 of the outside handle. On turning the inside handle to open the door, the star-wheel 6 is again operated and a recess 11<1> of the wheel 11 brought opposite the projection 8 of the follower 6. A sliding snib 24 can be used to turn the star-wheel slightly and place the blocking-mechanism out of action. A pawl 13 controls the action of the star-wheel. A pin 21, Fig. 5, on the bolt 50 passes through the casing and enters a slot 27<1> in a disk 27 mounted on the casing. The disk 27 can be turned through a right angle. by a key to lock the bolt. Coinfreed mechanism may be provided for the outside knob. As shown in Fig. 11, a pivoted bell-crank 42 normally engages a notch 44 in the projection 8 of the follower 6 and locks this against operation until the bell-crank is released by the weight of a coin 48. A pin 47 on the follower presses down the bell-crank and releases the coin when the outside handle is turned.
