Abstract:
The invention provides a circuit for electronic control of an internal combustion engines including injection valves that can be activated electrically as a function of regulated variables such as crankshaft position, engine speed, exhaust-gas composition and engine torque. The circuit includes an electronic control unit with means to activate the intake valves, exhaust valves, injection valves and ignition device as a function of ignition duration and ignition timing. The control unit also includes a start-up program with which ignition sequences of the engine cylinders, intake valves, injection valves and ignition device can be activated for any desired cylinder position of an engine-start-up process. The circuit further includes a program memory, an engine-standstill detection circuit, and an absolute-value angle transmitter to which the engine-standstill detection circuit is responsive. The absolute-value angle transmitter includes a coding disk that is integrally connected with the crankshaft of the engine, circuitry for generating signals corresponding to the crankshaft position during standstill and during rotational movement, and circuitry for generating electrical signals corresponding to engine temperature, engine load and engine knocking. The signals are fed as regulated variables to the electronic control unit.
Abstract:
A coil arrangement comprising two coils on a single coil former, termed a twin coil, is characterized in that the two coils (W1, W2 and, respectively, W3A), with any respective individual magnetic core (10 or, respectively, 9) required, are mounted with a substantial distance from each other on the coil former (1) and in that the respective residual coupling of the coils (W1, W2 and W3A) is eliminated by an oppositely wound or connected compensation winding (W3B). The compensating winding (8) is located in the one winding compartment (3) and has current from the coil in the other winding chamber (4) flowing through it. As a result the twin coil in accordance with the invention leads to some advantages over known twin coils in which the coupling between the two coils is nearly 100%.
Abstract:
An arrangement in a television receiver in which a sychronized external power stage supplies operating voltage to a remote-control receiver and a microprocessor connected thereto. A horizontal drive circuit is controlled by the microprocessor, and a horizontal end stage is connected to the horizontal drive circuit. The external power stage supplies power during stand-by operation only to the remote-control receiver and microprocessor along with the voltage for operating the horizontal drive circuit and the end stage. Thyristors are connected to the external power stage for supplying power to all other circuit stages in the television receiver. The thyristors have gate electrodes activated by the horizontal end stage for cutting off the thyristors during the stand-by operation and interrupting the supply of power to all other circuit stages in the television receiver, for minimizing the power consumption of the television receiver.
Abstract:
An arrangement in which the horizontal deflection circuit with deflection winding, driver circuit and storage inductance are associated with a side linked with the network, whereas the windings for production of high and operational voltage as well as the horizontal oscillator with phase comparator and the vertical deflection coil, together with their trigger circuits are separated or isolated from the network. The regulating information for the regulation of the circuit network part mounted on the side linked to the network is taken from a regulation circuit separate from the network and transmitted by way of a network-separating combining circuit.
Abstract:
A television receiver with a utility line-separated end and a controlled, line-separating, switched external power supply at the utility line end. Horizontal and vertical deflection currents are generated by horizontal and vertical output stages, and each of the two output stages are connected to a driving stage for the purpose of triggering the respective output stage. A modulator supplies a triggering signal to the driving stage and controls line separation. A horizontal frequency control signal and a vertical frequency control signal are generated and applied to horizontal and vertical sawtooth signal generators. The vertical output stage has one input connected to the horizontal sawtooth signal generator, and a second input connected to the vertical sawtooth signal generator through an error amplifier for vertical deflection of the end of the power supply connected to the utility line. The power supply is synchronized with oscillators for horizontal and vertical deflection, and is connected at the utility line-separated end.
Abstract:
A television receiver providing a stable image whether or not a composite color signal is present, in which a transmitter-recognition processes the television synchronization signals of the composite color signal. A character generator displays alphanumeric as well as graphic characters. The deflection generators and the character generator are operative with TV signals as well as characters that are alphanumeric as well as graphic. The deflection generators and the character generator are driven by control signals. An oscillator controls the deflection generators, and a phase comparator operates in the presence of synchronization signals to synchronize the oscillator. The phase comparator receives no signals from the input terminal when no synchronization signals are present, so that the oscillator oscillates at a fixed preadjustable frequency to provide a stable image.
Abstract:
An arrangement for automatic switching of the regulating speed of a phase regulating circuit, in which the regulating speed is not switched abruptly. The regulating speed is, instead, switched either discontinuously or continuously, so that it does not attain a high level before the midpoint of the synchronizing pulse. The regulating speed is increased within a synchronizing window to an increasing extent up to the midpoint of the window, whereas the regulating speed decreases to a decreasing extent from that midpoint. The regulating speed of the phase regulating circuit is associated with the horizontal deflection in a television receiver, where interference in the vicinity of the synchronizing pulse has a detrimental effect, particularly near the edges.
Abstract:
An arrangement for compensating against the magnetic field of the earth in a picture tube in remote-controlled video-display equipment, in which a compensating voltage is generated by a remote-control channel in the video-display equipment. This voltage is applied to a compensation coil in the picture tube. Current through the coil is adjusted in finely-divided incremental steps, and the current is continuously adjustable. The compensation voltage is applied to one end of the compensation coil, whereas the other end of the coil is supplied with substantially half of the operating voltage of the display equipment.
Abstract:
1. Circuitry for automatically switching the control speed of a phase-control circuit.2.1. The switching is, especially in conjunction with different signal sources employed with a television receiver, either difficult or possible only by reserving prescribed program locations. The advantage of the invention is that it becomes possible to switch over without great expenditure to the higher control speed only while necessary and back to the low speed when it no longer needs to be high.2.2. The invention is characterized in that a control circuit 12 increases the control speed, independent of whatever signal source is being employed to produce the picture, only during vertical flyback.2.3. The circuit can be employed in television receivers to reproduce both broadcast television signals and video signals from a recorder connected to the receiver.
