Abstract
884,301. Visible signalling apparatus. DIETZ CO., R. E. March 31, 1958, No. 10255/58. Class 118. [Also in Group XL (c)] A transistor oscillator for operating a flashing- light beacon comprises two normally non-conductive transistors one of which is connected in series with a load resistor (the flashing lamp) across a suitably poled D.C. supply and the other of which is associated with a condenser charging circuit whereby it is periodically rendered conductive, the current through said other transistor being applied to said one transistor to cause it also to conduct so that a large current flows periodically through said load resistor. The circuit comprises two transistors 15, 20 of opposite conductivity types, the transistor 20 being connected as shown between the base electrode of transistor 15 and the junction point of the resistor 12 and capacitor 14 connected in series with signal lamp 11 across the battery 10. A bias potential is applied to the base of transistor 20 by means of resistors 27, 28 to hold the transistor normally non-conductive. When, however, due to the charging of capacitor 14 the emitter potential of transistor 20 becomes more negative than that of the base electrode the transistor conducts, thus applying a current to the transistor 15 which also conducts. As a consequence the point 32 becomes more positive so that the base of resistor 20 also becomes more positive and conduction in transistor 20 increases cumulatively. The conduction in transistor 15 increases similarly and the lamp 11 is lighted. This continues until capacitor 14 has discharged through transistor 20 to such an extent that the transistors are no longer held fully conductive whereupon a reverse cumulative process occurs and both transistors are switched off. The cycle then repeats itself with the charging of capacitor 14. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown), a resistor, which may be arranged in series with a suitably poled D.C. source, is connected between the base of transistor 15 and earth. By this means leakage currents flowing in the transistor 20 are bypassed to earth.
