claimed in my copending application, Serial No. 321,821, filed November 26, 1928, Wherein, which should preferably be of a square formation, although this is not essential but merely for simpl city of illustration, may
be made larger or smaller by adjusting the 5 into two independent" and distinct paths" of light so as to scan more than a single unit area of the picture or television surfaceat theisame time.

These paths may differ in the number'of holes therei in by any predetermined and chosen amount,
as was disclosed in connection with the V- sbaped grooves. forming the plurality of separate and, individual :tracksin connection with; the glass disk arrangement set forth and claimed in mg above referred to copending application, erial' No." 349,076, filed March 22,1929., The surface of'the disk 29 provided with theopenings or apertures 31 therein is preferably-formed fromiqa light metal such as 'and may be accurately on paper andmost' acbe placed in the hands of a photoengraver who may then make a photoengravin'g on-the disk and thus make it as, accurately aspossible. The copper plate photoengraving,
may thenbe cut down so, that at the points where the holes or apertures are intended to be placed inthefdisk, itwill be very thin, and then by approximately coating the .en-

ing or etching process. Also, a disk may be formed by appropriatly punching theholes therein. After the disk has thus been prepared and the apertures or holes 31 formed therein, the disk is polished and preferably plated with a highly reflecting substance,
such as, for example, chromium or silver.
It will 'now be seen that as the two light beams 7 and 9 are focused respectively upon the tracks A and of the disk .29 and with the disk rotating fin the direction shown by the arrow thereon, rotational movement being derived from the supporting shaft 33 turn'edibymeans of asmall electric motor 7 or an air 'turbine, for example, the light projected along the paths and 9, will, at pre-- determined periods, pass through the holes or apertures '31 in the disk 29 and at other periods be reflectedfrom the surface of the t diskbetweensuccessive apertures.

As was 1929,, eachofthe photo cells 39 and41 may be of the elon' ated type so that they may simultaneously e influenced by lightpassing through each of the separate and distinct paths A and B on' thedi'sk member 29. These cells39 and 41 may then be connected with a transmitting circuit in i a manner similar to that disclosed-in the last of my above While I havedescribed myinvention parfltitcularly as being adaptedto two channel.
multiplex communication systems, it w ll readily be seen that the invention is likewise applicable to a single channel communicate tion system provided that only one path of apertures 01' holes inithe disk29 is utilized, 7 which mightbe produced, for eXample, -bycove-ring one'of the diaphragm openings'15 or 17, or by making the disk 29 with only a.
single-iti'ack'of holes therein, or,'in a imt .-lar manner,'the s stem may be adapted'to practically an infi nitejnumber of separate :and distinct channels-by providing-a corresponding number of: openings in the 'dia-. ,phragm 13 and making the disk 29 w th a correspondingnumber of separate and distinctpaths of holes 31therein,"in' which case, each of the separate paths on the disk will be v composed of a different number of apertures, so that the rate of. chopping the light for each, of the separate and distinct paths differs.

is, however, preferable to have the number ofholes in the diski29 such. that due to the, speed of rotation of the disk; and the number-f corresponding to: some 'predetermin'edlharcated at the recelver usedzinconjunction' vvith v a multiplex system of the -type herein dis I closed so that the separate and individual tones or carriers may be theredistinguished; Having thus described my inventiomit will;
