Abstract: 1432935 Data transmission; methods of loading INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING CORP Ltd 2 April 1973 [10 April 1972] 51949/75 Divided out of 1432934 Heading H4P The description is similar to that of parent Specification 1,432,934 but the claims are directed to a coding process (following the predictor) which comprises a plurality of different coders each coder being identified by a label having a plurality of symbols; an arrangement for continuously determining and selecting which one of the coders produces the smallest output consistent with distortionless transmission and selecting one coder in preference to a coder in use when that one produces a code having fewer symbols than the coder in use by at least the number of symbols in the label of that one, and initiating operation of that selected one when the difference between the quantity of data produced by that one and the coder in use is a minimum, thereby to enable the message symbols to be coded with the smallest number of symbols of coded representation which it is possible to obtain from said plurality of coders. Error words from a predictor (Fig. 7, not shown) in store (2) are presented singly to a plurality of parallel coders filling separate registers 40 having associated address counters and decoders 41, 42. After transfer of each coded word to respective stores 40, content of counters 41, i.e. number of bits, are loaded into a first coder latch circuit, e.g. K, each consisting of a multiple bit store, from CK which may be treated as the present preferred coder: K is compared with the content of other latches to determine the optinum point of change, which must allow for the number of bits comprising code change (or address) signals. If content of latch J plus code change bits is less than latch K, as determined by arithmetic unit 44, then the change is made to Cj when all latches are cleared for restart. The particular feature relative to prior art is that decision to change is made at point B (see Fig. 5, not shown) even although there may be a loss between points B and I, this being stated to give an overall better performance than changing at cross-over point I. Circuit 43 checks that the third latch for each coder, e.g. (k-j) never exceeds a threshold H, i.e. number of code change bits. When however H is exceeded a quantity of data defined by contents of latch (K min.) is placed in buffer 8 followed by code change Cj and then another portion defined by a count held in latch (J) and latch (J min.).

Liquid is pressed out of the suspension through the apertures 75 in the discs; and the expressed liquid leaves discs 12, 14 through holes 56, and leaves disc 16 through peripheral channels 18 which lead to drainage holes 58. The pulp, from which liquid has been expressed, is discharged from the press through outlet 73 (Fig. 2). Discs 12 and 14 are mounted on bearings 40, 42 on non-rotatable shaft 20. Disc 16 is mounted on shaft 20 by sliding bearings 44 so that the disc can move in an axial direction. The outer discs 12 and 14 are rotated by tooth or chain driving means 34 and 36 respectively, which are operated by motors 38, 39 synchronized so that the two discs rotate at the same speed. The rotation of the outer discs causes idle rotation of disc 16 by means of power transfer through annular sealing bodies 60, 61 which may be made of rubber or plastics material. The bearing-housings 30 and 32 contain, on one side of partition 22, a hydraulic pressure fluid, such as oil, introduced through channels 24 in shaft 20. If it is desired to displace discs 12 and 14 from one another, pressure fluid is supplied to the other side of partition 22 through channel 26. It is possible to mount the central disc so that it is non-displaceable on shaft 20; the outer discs must then be axially displaceable. More than one intermediate disc may be provided between the two outer discs. The apertures 75 may open into individual cells having the form of sectors and each having a liquid-discharge passage. The discharge passages may be connected to a suction source.
