Abstract

389,073. Copying-telegraphy. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd., Crown House, Aldwych, London.-(Assignees of Alexanderson, E. F. W.; 8, Adams Road, Schenectady, New York, U.S.A.) June 4, 1931, No. 16322. Convention date, June 5, 1930. Void [Published under Sect. 91 of the Acts]. [Class 40 (iii).] The apparatus described in Specification 308,695, [Class 40 (iii), Telegraphs, Electric], is modified so that separate adjacent lines of a picture are stated to be simultaneously transmitted and reproduced at a distant station. The picture is mounted on a sheet 2 carried by a semicircular cylindrical member 1 and moved slowly in the direction of the cylinder axis. A fixed light 6 is concentrated on the picture through a window 3 by lenses 5 mounted on a sleeve extension 4 of a hollow shaft rotated by a motor 10. It is stated that light reflected from diametrically opposite unit areas of the picture lying in adjacent scanning lines is collected by lens systems 8, and reflected by prisms 9 to travel along the shaft at the end of which it is separated into two beams by holes 15 in a diaphragm 14. The beams are interrupted at a desired frequency by an independently driven chopperdisc 17, and passed through lenses 20, 21 to photo-electric cells 22, 23 modulating transmitters 24, 25 working on slightly different transmission frequencies. The apparatus at the receiving station is similar to that at the transmitter except that the lenses 5 and the light source 6 are not required. The signals operating two separate receivers are applied to discharge lamps whose light variations are concentrated on a diaphragm corresponding to the member 14, as shown in the Figure. The separated light-beams are reflected to pass through a rotating lens system to trace adjacent paths on a light-sensitive sheet mounted similarly to the sheet 2, as shown in the Figure.
