Abstract

459,259. Electric control systems. RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA, 30, Rockefeller Plaza, New York, U.S.A. Feb. 15, 1936, No. 4675. Convention date, March 9, 1935. [Class 40 (i)] [See also Group XX] Automatic photographic exposure control for contrast and illumination is determined by control circuits for the motors actuating light filters. Two photo-electric cells 30, 31 are oppositely connected in the input circuit of an amplifier 32 which supplies current through a further amplifier 33 to a resistor 28 and a polarized relay 34. The potential producing current in the operating coil 35 of the relay 34 is the resultant of the amplifier output potential and the opposed potential drop produced in resistor 28 by the battery 23f. When the contrast in the scene to be photographed varies, the difference in illumination of the photocells 30, 31 varies and the relay 34 is operated to cause the motor 14 to move a light wedge and correct the exposure. Similarly the general illumination is caused to control a further photo-electric cell which regulates in the same way the action of a relay controlling the movement of a variable tint filter.
