The shackle of a combination padlock has a short leg 16 with a hook 17, at its end, and a long leg 18 serving to prevent accidental movement of the bolt 79 to the fasting position and having a wedge-shaped notch 21 near its end, the lock-bolt 79 being pivotted and having a hook 83 at one end engaging the hook on the shackle and a wedge shaped portion 86 fitting into the notch 21 only when the shackle is down, the bolt having a fence 87 controlled by a series of combination discs. The lower end of the bolt carries a combination disperser arm 89. When the discs 46, 69, 64, Figs. 8, 14 all have their gate notches 54, 75, 66 respectively aligned with the fence 87 and the shackle 15 is withdrawn as shown in Fig. 5, the bolt 79 pivots counterclockwise about pin 43 with the fence 87 moving into the notches 54, 75, 66 and the disperser 89 abutting shoulder 96 to bend it to engage peripheral aligned disperser notches 67, 76 of the discs 64, 69 respectively. When the shackle is pressed in to look, this disperser rotates the discs to upset the combination. The first disc 46 is linked by splines directly to operating knob 33, and the other two are linked to it by pin 55, Fig. 6, on the first disc engaging pin 78 on the middle disc 69 which has a pin 77 engaging pin 68 on the last disc 64. By alternate rotation of the dial in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions, to the required combination, the gates 54, 75, 66 are aligned with the fence 87. The combination is of vernier type having a 6-letter rotatable disc 33 and a 7-number fixed disc behind it. The disc 33 is rotated to three separate letter-number combinations to set the three discs to the releasing position. In a modification, Figs. 20, 24 the combination lock may be unlocked by a master key 39' inserted at the rear of the padlock. As shown in Figs. 20, 24, the look has a combination dial 13' on the front and a cruciform key-hole 38' in its rear engaging a fencetumbler lock 16'.

Filed: 1971-12-01
Abstract: 1332954 Photo-electric direction finders THOMSON-CSF 1 Dec 1971 [4 Dec 1970] 55829/71 Heading H4D A light source tracking device comprises an input device focusing the tracking field on to a rectangular area in its focal plane, means for detecting the radiation received on said area, divided into rectangular juxtaposed strips parallel to one axis of the area, an optical scanning means interrupting the radiation by a succession of transparent lines on a dark background forming a pseudo-random code (PRC) parallel to the second axis of the area and moving parallel to the first and processing means including autocorrelation of the detected signal with a reference signal synchronized with the PRC to provide indication of the angular coordinates of the source. In an aircraft or missile tracking system utilizing optical, infra-red or ultra-violet radiation lens 1 focuses the source on to an array of photodetectors D 1 -D N . Support 3 which may be a disc (Fig. 2, not shown) has strips R 1 -R P  representing a PRC photographically produced thereon and moves with velocity V in the direction of the X axis. The detector outputs pass to shaping amplifiers C 1 -C N  and thence to photo-emitters E 1 -E N . These emitters are focused on to the support 3 to form a replica 4 of the detection area and the patterns on the support are identical at each instant at the detection and correlation areas. The correlation area 4 is imaged on to the screen 7 of a TV camera. The screen 7 receives the correlation of the detector output modulated by the PRC with the pattern of the correlation area 4. This provides a correlation peak at the position of the source image and the cartesian co-ordinates thereof are determined by scanning the screen 7 line-by-line. The cartesian coordinates are then processed to give the angular mis-alignment of the tracking device. In a modification there are provided N tracks on the support 3 each having a unique PRC. In this case the detection area is focused by a cylindrical or spherical lens on to a single rectangular or point detector and only one emitter is necessary.

Abstract: 1,200,120. Fire alarms. CERBERUS A.G. 29 Dec., 1967 [29 Dec., 1966], No. 59190/67. Heading G4N. [Also in Division G1] A fire alarm comprises a smoke, temperature or radiation detector 1 feeding an amplifier (such as 4, 8) having feedback arranged so that a change in the condition of detector 1 is maintained until the system is reset. Detector 1 may be an ionization chamber or photocell; field-effect transistor 4 and junction transistor 8 being normally non-conductive. The occurrence of a fire causes the resistance of detector 1 to increase, driving transistors 4, 8 into conduction and providing an indication on a meter 9. This condition is maintained by feedback across resistor 3 which reduces the energizing voltage of the ionization chamber 1. The threshold at which the circuit operates is adjustable by resistor 6. A plurality of such circuits may be connected across terminals 10, 12, 15 to feed a common indicator 9; the circuits being tested by momentary operation of a switch 17 which provides an indication on a meter 19 should any one detector fail. In Fig. 4 (not shown) a further transistor 21 is shunted across resistor 6 so as to reduce the threshold in the event of a fire. Transistors 4, 8 also become inherently conductive in the event of an increase in ambient temperature. If a photo-cell is used as detector 1, the circuit may operate a light source, optical feedback being provided between the lamp and the photo-cell. Fig. 1 (not shown) relates to a known alarm comprising an ionization chamber coupled via a field-effect transistor and Zener diode to an indicator controlled by a thyristor.
