    摘要: This invention relates to a fail-safe duty cycle checking circuit comprising an amplifier circuit having a first input for receiving a square wave of fixed peak to peak amplitude and a second input for receiving a signal proportional to the duty cycle of the square wave, and an output, a feedback loop connected between the output and first input for providing an upper and a lower hysteresis level which levels shift upward or downward in accordance with the duty cycle of the square wave, the shifting of the hysteresis levels too far upward or too far downward rendering the amplifying circuit incapable of producing an output, and a photosensitive device having a radiant energy source connected in the feedback loop for monitoring its condition. The photosensitive device also has a photopositive resistive element connected to the first and second inputs of the amplifier circuit to assume a high impedance condition whenever the radiant energy source emits no radiant energy thereby rendering any square wave input incapable of producing an output from the amplifying circuit.

    摘要: This invention relates to a vital type of vehicle overspeed circuit arrangement for receiving variable frequency signals from a speed sensing device. The variable frequency signals are applied to a single break passive low-pass filter which attenuates the signals at a rate of 6db per octave. The attenuated signals are fed to an input amplifier which couples the amplified filtered signals to a selection network. The selection network includes a plurality of active switching stages a select one of which is activated for controlling the gain of a variable gain amplifier. The variable gain amplifier is coupled to an output amplifier which produces an output voltage having a value which is proportional to the frequency of the signals and the gain of the variable gain amplifier.

    摘要: An asymetrical, astable multivibrator, at the control location for a multiple unit train, transmits a control signal having a selected duty cycle characteristic over a single train line channel. The duty cycle percentage is selectively varied by a transistorized switching bank which connects different resistors into the RC timing circuit for one-half of the multivibrator element, the other half having a fixed timing circuit. These switching transistors are selectively controlled by the train operator in accordance with the desired train operating mode. The transmitted control signal is received on each car and converted into an average voltage whose level varies with percent duty cycle. On each car, this average voltage is compared, in a transistorized comparator element, with a reference voltage preset in accordance with the desired operating mode of that car within the overall train operation. When the average voltage is less than the reference voltage, a controller on that car is actuated to control the car function. With different reference voltages preset on the several cars, sequential activation of the car control functions may be obtained.

    摘要: A special signal is transmitted through train line communication channels from a transmitter means on one car to a receiver means on the other car of the self-propelled train unit. The transmission of this signal is controlled by the propulsion control logic means located on one car. The receiver means includes a relay which controls the propulsion condition of one of the cars, normally the trailing car, shifting between direct, multiple unit control from the operator''s position and a preset condition, e.g., propulsion off, as the special signal is or is not received. The special signal may be direct current energy or alternating current energy having a selected frequency characteristic. This latter signal is superimposed on train line channels used for other purposes, e.g., the directional train line wires. The direct current signal, however, requires a separate, dedicated train line channel used in conjunction with the directional train line wires.
