    摘要: The invention relates to an identification system comprising an interrogator and a plurality of transponders. The interrogator includes transmitter means for transmitting an interrogation signal to the transponder, receiver means for receiving a response signal from the transponder, and processor means for identifying the transponder from data in the response signal. Clock extraction means are further provided for extracting a transponder clock signal from the response signal which is used to synchronise the modification of the interrogation signal with the response signal from the transponder. Each transponder comprises receiver means for receiving the interrogation signal, a transponder clock generator, a code generator, transmitter means, and a modulator connected to the code generator, so that on receipt of the interrogation signal the transponder transmits a response signal containing data which identifies the transponder. The interrogator is adapted to detect successful reception of a response signal from any transponder, to derive a synchronisation signal from the response signal of that transponder, and to modify the interrogation signal synchronously with the response signal to indicate successful reception of the response signal. Each transponder further includes means responsive to a respective modification of the interrogation signal to cease transmission of its response signal.

    摘要: The invention relates to a blasting apparatus for activating a plurality of electrical detonators after predetermined time delays. The blasting apparatus includes a plurality of remote electrical delay devices. Each device is linked to a detonator, and is arranged to be serially programmed with a timing signal, which originates from the central control unit and which determines the time delay. A bidirectional signal harness, having ends which terminate at I/O ports in the control unit, serially links the delay devices to the control unit. In the event of a fault of discontinuity occurring in the harness prior to programming of the delay devices, the discontinuity is detected and the direction of programming along the bidirectional harness is reversed so that those delay devices which, due to the break, cannot be programmed in the initial direction, are programmed with timing signals travelling along the signal line in the opposite direction. The invention extends to a method of activating a plurality of electrical detonators, as well as to the individual delay devices forming part of the blasting apparatus.

    摘要: An identification system comprises an interrogator and a number of transponders. The interrogator includes a transmitter for transmitting an interrogation signal to the transponder, and a receiver for receiving a response signal from the transponder. A micro-processor identifies the transponder from data in the response signal. Each transponder comprises a receiving antenna for receiving the interrogation signal, a code generator, a transmitting antenna, and a modulator connected to the code generator. On receipt of the interrogation signal the transponder repeatedly transmits a response signal containing data which identifies the transponder. The interrogator detects successful identification of any transponder and briefly interrupts the interrogation signal to indicate the successful identification. Each transponder includes a logic circuit responsive to a respective interruption in the interrogation signal to cease transmission of its own response signal.

    摘要: A connector for joining multi-conductor cables comprising first and second mating connector elements which are fixed to first and second multi-conductor cables. The first connector element holds bared sections of the conductors of the first cable in a spaced apart relationship and defines upstanding pillars over which the conductors are folded. The second connector element holds bared sections of the conductors of the second cable in a spaced apart relationship and defines apertures adjacent to the conductors which are shaped to receive the upstanding pillars, so that respective conductors of the first and second cables are urged into electrical engagement with one another when the first and second connector elements are mated. The frictional contact between the conductors ensures a self-cleaning action.

    摘要: A method of establishing a telecommunications network. The method includes the steps of providing a network of local stations joined to one another by microwave links, and arranging, in a cluster around each local station, a plurality of subscriber, or telephone stations, each subscriber station having a unique code. Optical telecommunications links are then established between the subscriber stations and their associated local station. The operation of the network is managed using a system controller, which includes a system controller database incorporating a network map, subscriber and local station data. Associated local databases are established at each of the local stations, and the various databases are continuously and automatically updated via the network in response to a change on the configuration of the network.

    摘要: Apparatus is provided for activating a plurality of groups of electrical loads, such as electrical detonators used in blasting, after respective time delays. The apparatus comprises a master control unit which generates master control signals to initiate timing out of delay devices associated with each load. The apparatus further includes several auxiliary control units which are connectable to the master control unit. Each auxiliary control unit is adapted to control a respective group of remote electrical delay devices with associated electrical loads. Each auxiliary control unit includes local control means for generating local control signals from the master control signals which are synchronised with the local control signals of other auxiliary control units, for initiating operation of the delay devices, so that a large blast can be carried out in a perfectly synchronised manner. The master control unit may transmit master programming signals to the auxiliary control units, which each program the electrical delay devices of their respective group. Synchronisation of the local control signals can be achieved in a number of different ways. A method of activating a plurality of groups of electrical loads is also described.
