Abstract:
A calibration arrangement for an eddy cup-type speedometer is disclosed in which a magnetic shunt is carried on a bearing sleeve located on a magnet shaft, with the shunt located intermediate the frame backwall and the shaft magnet. A spring biases the shunt against rotation relative to the magnet. Aligned apertures in the frame and housing backwalls located radially outwardly of the magnet shaft and radially inwardly of the shunt periphery enable receipt of a tool for engaging a rearwardly extending tang on the shunt to hold the shunt against rotation while the magnet is rotated to thereby adjust the angular relationship between the magnet and shunt for calibrating the speedometer.

Force transmitting means for moving a printer bar assembly into an operative position for printout of graphic data in facsimile apparatus upon rotation of recording paper drive means at a normal speed.
Abstract:
A TAPE COMPRISING STRIPS OF BERYLLIUM COPPER SANDWICHED BETWEEN LAYERS OF MYLAR AND CONNECTED IN TANDEM TO SPACED SCANNING ASSEMBLIES OF A FACSIMILE TRANSCEIVER FOR MOVEMENT PAST AN OBJECT TO BE SCANNED. ONE END OF THE TAPE TERMINATES AT ONE OF THE SCANNING ASSEMBLIES AND THE OTHER END OF THE TAPE TERMINATES AT A ROTOR ASSEMBLY ABOUT WHICH THE TAPE AND SCANNING ASESMBLIES ROTATE IN AN ECCENTRIC PATH.
Abstract:
The following specification describes an arrangement for locking a counter or odometer on subtractive operation together with a clutch automatically operated on locking to disengage the gear train and avoid damage to the train and effective on normal or additive operation to engage the gear train. A simple spring biased ratchet arrangement between one of the drive wheels and an adjacent higher digit order wheel is also used to permit additive operation and prevent subtractive counter or odometer operation. An additional feature provides a signal in the event of tampering with the odometer by moving one of the higher digit order dials.
Abstract:
A unitary sleeve member formed of a nylon-molybdenum disulfide composition is fixedly carried in concentric fashion intermediate of the valve casing and a reciprocating valve spool and in contact with the peripheral surface of the valve spool.
Abstract:
The file card drawer employs a cylindrical bushing carried by a faceplate which receives a knob and holding rod assembly. The knob is undercut and engages a lip in the bushing for holding the assembly in place. A bearing plate at the inner end of the bushing has a hole whose center line is below the centerline of the bushing to form a fulcrum which applies a downward pressure on the rod to lock the knob assembly in place.
Abstract:
A pattern contour-tracing system which is capable of intercepting and locking on the pattern contour from a position removed from the contour without the use of a leadin contour. The pattern contour-sensing head is pointed so as to travel in a line toward the contour with the sensing head steering means locked out until the sensing means detects that the sensing is within a predetermined distance of the contour. The steering means is then unlocked so that the sensing head can be automatically steered by the servo means to make a smooth transition into the path defined by the pattern contour. A photosensitive tracing system is disclosed which is operable to lead into and trace the pattern contour whether the contour is defined by a line or an edge.
Abstract:
Synchronizing systems of the type useful with facsimile equipment in which a motor driven recorder is driven at a speed to provide generated pulses of a quiescent frequency slightly different from the frequency of synchronizing pulses received from a transmission source and in which the speed of the motor is caused to sweep through the speed that produces a generated pulse frequency equal to the synchronizing frequency if and when there is time coincidence between the synchronizing and generated pulses. Also disclosed are photocell means for providing synchronizing pulses and generated pulses especially useful in facsimile transceivers.
Abstract:
A bistable flip-flop circuit for use preferably in monolithic semiconductor integrated circuits having a master flip-flop at the circuit input and a slave output at the circuit output with coupling transistors between the two master and slave flip-flops. The emitters of the transistors coupled through a resistor to the clock pulse input so that the master flip-flop changes state responsive to the rise time of the clock pulse and the slave flip-flop changes state during the fall time of the clock pulse throughout an extended temperature range.
Abstract:
A SUPPORTING DEVICE FOR SEMICONDUCTOR WAFERS TO BE USED DURING DEPOSITION AND DIFFUSION PROCESS STEPS BY WHICH THE WAFERS AE ORIENTED AT AN UPWARD SLOPING ANGLE IN THE DIRECTION OF GAS FLOW. THE WAFERS ARE LOADED ON THE DEVICES SO THAT THE SURFACES AT WHICH THE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES ARE BEING FABRICATED ARE FACING DOWNWARD AND TOWARDS THE DOWNSTREAM END TO THEREBY PROVIDE AN
EVEN GAS FLOW ACROSS THE FACE OF EACH WAFER AND PREVENT THE DEPOSIT ON THE DESIRED SURFACES OF ANY CONTAMINANTS WHICH MIGHT BE KNOCKED LOOSE FROM THE INTERIOR SURFACE OF THE REACTION TUBE.
