Title: System for the automatic supervision of the production by machines
IPC: G07C3/12
Filed: 1957-09-27
Abstract: 824,069. Registering output of machines. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES Ltd. Sept. 27, 1957 [Sept. 29, 1956], No. 30332/57. Class 106 (4). A system for the automatic supervision of the production of machines 11 comprises, in association with each machine, an electrical counter 1 electrically connected to a corresponding input device 4 which co-operates with a record card 6 carrying production data in a visually and mechanically readable form and, common to all machines, a control device 15 which, at predetermined time intervals or when selected, causes the production figures to be read out from the counter and, for each input device, scanning means for reading out production data so that it can be indicated or stored. Production data, including the order number, product and a quantity term, is recorded on the card 6 in a form 7 for reading by sight and by punched holes 8 for mechanical scanning. The card 6 is positioned in the input device 4 by an operative turning a key 9, the holes 8 are scanned to enter the data in an input store, the card actuates contacts to store the machine number and contacts are closed to enable the machine 11 to start producing. The number and combination of indents 10 of the key-bits are characteristic of the operative's working number whereby contacts are also actuated to store his number. Furthermore the cards are marked to distinguish productive and unproductive operations such as repairs. The data stored in any input device 12, comprising a counter 1 and device 4, corresponding to a machine 11, can be indicated on a panel 14 under the control of a device which can be operated selectively from a keyboard 15 or from a selector switch 18 at times predetermined by setting a timing device 19 comprising a clock and date indicator. Information from these cyclic read-outs, together with time and date pulses, is also transmitted through a calculator 21 to a central card index system 20, where information is stored in visual and magnetic form in subdivisions 20 corresponding to every bookkeeping requirement desired. A report-printer 22 and tape-perforator 24 record information automatically as called for by a perforated-tape reader 23 controlled by a tape prepunched in a desired order sequence. A plurality of boards 17 indicate which machines are in production and by depressing the key on the board 15 corresponding to an inoperative machine, the panel 14 will show whether it is under repair or has stopped from an unknown cause, which should be investigated. The counters 1 can be set to a predetermined number in order to stop production when it is attained.

Filed: 1959-09-05
Abstract: 924,072. Automatic arc control systems. ZAVODY ELEKTROTEPELNYCH ZARIZENI (ZEZ) NARODNI PODNIK. Sept. 5, 1959, No. 30364/59. Class 38 (4). [Also in Group XXII] A welding head motor M is supplied from transformer TR 1 through magnetic amplifier TD and rectifiers U1-U4, a control winding AZr of the amplifier being in series with valve E1 In the left-hand position of a change-over switch V1, a voltage derived from a motordriven tachometer generator T is fed into the grid circuit of valve E1, this voltage being compared with a reference voltage across potentiometer P connected to stabilizer St. This enables the electrode to be fed at a constant speed. In the right-hand position of the change-over switch, a portion of the rectified arc voltage is fed into the grid circuit alternatively, and the arc voltage is automatically kept constant. The tachometer generator may be replaced by a circuit providing a voltage proportional to the welding current. The armature of the motor may be shunted by a stabilizing resistor.

Title: Improvements in or relating to folding pockets for folding machines having buckling folders
IPC: B65H45/14
Filed: 1935-11-04
Abstract: 447,017. Folding paper. SPIESS, G., 78, Zschochersche Strasse, Leipsic, Germany. Nov. 4, 1935, No. 30508. Convention date, Nov. 3, 1934. [Class 100 (i)] In a folding-pocket for folding-machines having buckling-folders, there is arranged in the free entry space 1 of the pocket a number of springy guide members 8, which guides extend from the entrance to the rear of the pocket and exert a slight frictional action on the entering or departing sheet, and are adjustable to enable a variation in pressure to be obtained by being rigidly connected to the front and adjustably connected to the rear of the pocket. As shown, the guides 8, which may be of steel or brass, are secured by screws to the upper front cross member 2 of the pocket and their rear ends are slotted and the slots are engaged by screws 10 which screw into the lower rear cross member 4 of the pocket. The purpose of the guides 8 is to enable the thinnest of paper sheets to be folded accurately since undulations in the sheets cannot be formed within the pocket.
Patent GB-509045-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in calculating apparatus
IPC: G06G3/00
Filed: 1937-11-08
Abstract: 509,045. Calculating apparatus. MAXSON CORPORATION, W. L. Nov. 8, 1937, No. 30634. Convention date, Dec. 1, 1936. [Class 106 (i)] A calculating-apparatus includes a substantially flat member, having on at least one side thereof one or more tracks or paths, connected for operation through a number of revolutions by an input member in uniformly magnified relation to a basic angle,. and rotary means driven by said tracks for operating an output member through a number of revolutions to be constantly proportional to a trigonometric function of the basic angle. A handle 8 is operated to drive a counter 13 through gearing 12 in order that the counter may indicate the required angle. Superimposed gear-wheels 6 and 7 are also driven in unison by the handle 8 through trains of gearing. These wheels bear, on the sides facing each other, cam grooves 14 and 15 in which pins 16 and 17 engage, the latter being disposed on angularly disposed equal radii of a gear 18. The provision of two cam driving wheels 6 and 7 prevents the pins sticking at dead-centres in the cam grooves. The wheel 18 operates a counter 22 through trains of gears and the shape of the cam grooves are adjusted so that counter 22 indicates the cosine of the angle on counter 13. The cam grooves suffice to give values of the cosine over 90 degrees and owing to the symmetry of the cosine curve, values for the complete range of 360 degrees can be obtained by reversing the input to wheels 6 and 7 every 90 degrees. Also as the cosine is negative between 90 and 270 degrees, the output must be reversed at 90 and 270 degrees. The reversing is effected by the movement of clutch sleeves 42 and 66 in the input and output trains respectively. In the case of the sleeve 66, a wheel 65 driven from the gear 18 is mounted on the sleeve and the latter is connected either to wheels 71 or 77 which drive the counter 22 through trains, one of which has an extra wheel to cause the counter to be reversed. The clutch sleeve is moved by a fork 68 operated by a cam 84. The cam is driven from the handle 8 through a number of Geneva stop mechanisms in series, the effect being that the clutch effects a reverse when the handle 8 has made the number of turns which changes the reading of counter 13 through 180 degrees. The clutch sleeve 42 is operated in a similar way by Geneva stop mechanism, but in this case the clutch effects a reversal every time the counter 13 moves through 90 degrees. In place of the cam groove discs, apparatus comprising teeth 102 arranged in a spiral on a disc and driving a gear 104 may be employed. The pinion 104 slides on a square shaft 105 so that it may follow the spiral. A carriage 108 moving on a rod 109 is connected to the wheel 104 and is provided with a finger engaging with the side of the spirally arranged teeth in order to force the wheel 104 to follow the spiral.

Title: Radiation measuring instrument
IPC: G01T1/18
Filed: 1964-08-04
Abstract: 1,073,236. Photo-electric radiation measurement. MECEWA A. G. Aug. 4, 1964 [july 26, 1963; May 30, 1964], No.30872/64. Heading G1A. In a radiation measuring instrument, for continuous indication of the mean intensity, utilizing a counter, the pulse amplifier and the ratemeter have temperature characteristics so adjusted to each other that the temperature characteristic of the rate-meter is compensated by that of the amplifier. The circuit features a counting tube 1 whose anode is connected, through an R-C network 2, 3, to input transformer 5. The amplifier comprises a transistor, the base bias of which is produced by a voltage divider of resistors 8, 9 and thermistor 10; the collector circuit comprising the primary of output transformer 13. The latter connects to three charging capacitors 17-19 of the rate-meter, through a diode 16. The capacitors and corresponding resistors 21-23 are selected by a switch 24, which is mounted on a common switch shaft with selector 26, which brings in the D.C. meter 25, and with the selector 30, which disconnects the high voltage generator from the cathode of the tube 1. The generator comprises a transistor 31 and transformer 34, forming a blocking oscillator, the initial starting pulse for which is obtained by the throwing of switch 43, which instantaneously connects the transistor 31 with a supply cell. This latter may be either a primary cell 39, an accumulator 40, charged by a battery of photo-cells 42, or an external source connected to terminals 46, and the one chosen depends on the direction in which switch 43 is thrown. The voltage is rectified and stabilized by anodes 36 and 38 respectively. With the generator operating, the range selector 24-30, is switched to the testing and setting position (as in the figure), the meter 25 indicating the supply voltage between 28, 29, and the resistor 45 is adjusted until the required value is indicated For measurements, the selector switch is turned to the range required. Pulses from the counter tube 1 after amplification charge up the selected capacitor (17, for example) which then gradually discharges through diode 20, a resistor 21 and the meter 25, which indicates the mean value of the pulses applied. The effect of temperature variations on the circuit is to increase rest currents in the diodes 16, 20, giving readings that are too high. This is compensated by an opposite characteristic for the amplifier, dictated by the thermistor 10 such that the gain decreases with rising temperature. The use of transformer coupling for the amplifier and ability to control the transistor 7, also facilitate temperature stabilization. The apparatus may measure α, # and γ radiation.
