    摘要: A sensing circuit for detecting a change in a normal characteristic of an object such as a change in a normal temperature characteristic, a change in a normal magnetic field characteristic, or a change in a normal light falling on the sensing element of the sensing circuit is provided. The circuit employs a four-terminal semiconductor device having alternate layers of conductivity type, which has an amplification characteristic of the collector current to the base-emitter grounded, wherein there is a sharp decrease in the h.sub.FE amplification characteristic at one value of gate to emitter voltage. This point represents the point in which the semiconductor device is biased for a normally desired characteristic being sensed. Whenever there is a deviation from this normal position, there is a sharp rise in the h.sub.FE irrespective of what the direction of deviation is. The h.sub.FE gain then substantially levels off.

    摘要: The disclosed invention describes an apparatus and method for bringing a system having high interactive portions to a predetermined temperature distribution. The invention includes a difference controller which provides, through two separate drivers, a fixed total amount of energy to the system being controlled. If the system being controlled also has a long cycle time, second and third temperature controllers may be used to bring the system to the equilibrium temperature with a minimum amount of overshoot. The invention is particularly advantageous when used in connection with a high pressure, high temperature vessel useful in growing quartz crystals.

    摘要: An electronic furnace control system for forced air gas or oil fired furnaces includes an operating relay circuit for the furnace fan which is operated by a variable timing circuit shortly after fuel is supplied to the furnace burner. A latching circuit latches the fan motor relay circuit in a closed condition to substantially continuously operate the furnace fan as long as the furnace thermostat is closed and requires heat. The temperature in the furnace hot air plenum chamber is continuously monitored by a temperature sensing circuit which controls the solenoid operated valve of the furnace burner. A reset timing circuit resets the fan motor relay latching circuit after a predetermined delay when the furnace thermostat de-energizes the valve controlling solenoid.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for sensing and regulating the temperature of a fluid is provided having means for generating a first signal whenever the actual temperature of the fluid whose temperature is to be regulated is lower than a preselected temperature level. The first signal has an amplitude proportional to the magnitude of the difference between the actual fluid temperature and the preselected temperature level. Means are provided for generating an output signal whenever the amplitude of a reference signal exceeds the amplitude of the first signal. Means are also provided for heating the fluid, the duration of said heating being proportional to the duration of said output signal.

    摘要: Heat control apparatus for control of electrical input to an electric heater element to achieve linear temperature rise heating. Time-reduced voltage is applied to a temperature-sensing themocouple (or a thermistor, resistance thermometer, or the like) whereby a controller for heating element is caused to deliver current to the heating element to linearly increase the temperature of the substance being heated.

    摘要: 1,155,432. Refrigerating. ROBERTSHAW CONTROLS CO. 16 June, 1966 [16 June, 1965], No. 26984/66. Heading F4H. [Also in Division G3] The heating and cooling systems for a building complex are controlled by a known digital computer having a stored programme. Temperatures at selected points of each system, Figs. 1, 2 (not shown), are sensed by thermocouples and compared by the computer with stored predetermined values and the necessary control actions are initiated by digital signals which, through a multiplexer, actuate digital stepping motors positioning the mechanical controls of a system. As shown for a cooling system, Fig. 3, output signals 1P1S from the computer are used to control liquid cooling units 1-3 connected, in series-parallel, to air cooling heat exchangers AHI-AHL which are connected in parallel. The cooling units are identical and unit 1 comprises an evaporator 96 and condenser 100 through which the coolant is circulated by a compressor 98. The condenser is cooled by the water flow through a cooling tower 109 which is circulated by a pump 106. The coolant flow in the evaporator 96 is determined by a vane control 94 positioned, through a pneumatic diaphragm arrangement 88, by a ball-valve 74 positioned by a digital stepping motor 50. The stepping motor 50 is controlled through a transfer network and contacts 42, 46, actuated by alternately energized relay coils 34, 36 responsive to computer output signals 1P1S 3-6. Input signals 1P1S 1-2 control the energization of a motor 98M for the compressor 98, signals 1P1S T1-2 control the tower 109 and 1P1S P1-4 control a motor 106M for pump 106 and a motor 110M for pump 110 in the circulating line to the heat-exchangers AH1-AHL. The monitoring input signals comprise a positional feedback signal 1P1FS from a potentiometer 1PT1 coupled to the stepping motor 50, signals 1KM1-3 from the pump compressors and representing their power consumption; signals 1FM1-3FM1 representative of the flow rate through the cooling units 1-3, signals 1CTS1-3CTS2 representative of the inlet and outlet temperatures of the cooling units, and a signal CRS representative of the common return temperature which are derived to evaluate the temperatures across the cooling units; input signals 1SI-1SL are derived from temperature sensing devices associated with the heat-exchangers AH1-AHL. It is stated that the computer controls the start-up and close-down of a cooling unit and optimizes the operation of the units in dependence on demand. A read-out console is stated to record the efficiencies of the systems.
