This'invention relates to electrical circuits, and more particularly to circuits for selective signaling of switching, in which a signal may be transmitted selectively to one of a plurality of circults or a circuit may be connected selectively to one of a plurality of circuits.
Circuits for selective switching and signaling have in the past employed electromagnetically operated relays and selectors, having mechanically moving parts, and which require careful adjustment and maintenance of mechanical motions, such as armature travel, clearance between mov-- ing members, spring tensions and, contact pressures. Furthermore, it has beenfound impraclections on a voltage basis owing to the difficulty of securing accurate marginal operation with conventional types of relays and selectors. It is an object of this invention to provide means for seated directly or indirectly by electromagnets, but
which employ instead electrical discharge devices of the thermionic gas-illled type, operating on a voltage marginal basis. The thermionic gasfllled discharge tube is especially adapted. to this use on account of the close and accurate setting for marginal operation possible by adjustment of grid bias or anode potential or both.
Other objects of this invention will appear from the following description of. an embodiment thereof, when read in connection with the appended drawings, in the Figures 1, 2 and 3 of which the invention is illustrated. Figs. 1, 2 and 3 when taken together constitute a circuit di ram illustrating a preferred vi'ormof the invention.
Referring to Fig, 1, reference character 1 indicates a telephone subscriber's station, connected to a central oflice over wires 2 and 3. .Also at the subscriber's stationis a source ofdirect current connected to a potentiometer resistance,
from whichtaps are brought out to keys 31, 32, 33 and 34, so that when any one of these keys, which are preferably mechanicallyinterlocked so that 45 only one can be depressed at a time, is operated a predetermined voltage will be applied to signal ing conductors 36 and 37. It. would of course be possible and generally desirable to combine pairs '2, 3 and 36, 37. utilizing filtering means to sep- 50 arate the signaling and speech currents, but these circuits have here been shown separate for illustrative purposes only and to clarify the description.

mionic tubes, grouped in pairs, these being tubes 4, '1, tubes 22, 23, tubes 73, '74 and tubes 94, 96. When arcs are struck in any one pair of these tubes an alternating current path for speech currents can be traced through the arc paths of the 5 given pair, the cathodes thereof being connected to conductors 2 and 3 respectively, and through the blocking condensers, such as 8, 9, or 20, 21 or 75, 76 or 95, and 97,. toconductors leading to lines o, 1, 2, or a. 7
Grid biasing batteries 5 have the grids of tubes 4 and 7 positive so that normally arcs will be established therein and conductors 2 and 3 thus connected for speech currents to line 0. Under such conditions it would be possible for the sub- 15 scribers set 1 to be connected to ancperator when none of the keys 31 to 34, inclusive, are operated. If now a given key, for example 34, ,be depressed this will cause a voltage impulse of predetermined magnitude to be sent over wires 36 and 37 and applied to the potentiometers 48, 64, 104 and 110. Wire 36 is raised to a postive potential above wire 37, but as key 34 applies the lowest voltage tube 49 alone will operate, as the settings of the other potentiometers are so adjusted that 25 -the fractionof the. voltage diiference between wires 36 and 37by them applied to the grid circuitsof the corresponding tubes is insufficient to override the grid biasing batteries 17 which normally bias the grids negatively to such an extent 9 that no arc will strike.
In the anode circuit of tube 49 there are transformers 52 and 53. The primary winding of transformer 52 is connected to the source of alternating current 51. The alternating voltage 35 induced in the secondary is greater in peak value than the voltage of anode battery 12, and therefore upon removal of the positive voltage applied to the grid through potentiometer 48 the arc in the anode circuit will be extinguished in the next negative half cycle. As long as key 34 remains closed, however, alternating and direct currents both will flow in the anode circuit of tube 49 and through the primary of transformer 53. The alternating current induced thereby in the'secondary of transformer 53 will be applied to the input transformers 47, 18 and 19, associated with tubes 40, 22 and 23 respectively. Arcs will accordingly strike in these tubes. The arcs in tubes 22 and 23 will connect conductors 2 and 3 to line 1, as hereinbefore explained. Striking of the arc in the anode circuit of tube H v a; 40 will complete an alternating current circuit At the central oilice the conductors 2 and 3. are connected to a plurality of gas-filled there "fromthe secondary of transformer 39, the primary of which is connected to alternating current ..of tube 40.
. Application of a higher voltage by closing key 33 will cause tube 67 to pass current, but not tubes 106 or 111. The plate circuits of this tube are identical with those of tube 49, resulting in the striking of arcs in tubes 73 and 74 and also in tube 60. Tube 60 will now remain in a conducting condition and alternating current from its anode circuit will be carried over conductors 54 and 55 to transformers 28 and 29. The secondaries of these are connected to rectifier resistance units 26 and 27 which, as in the case of tube 40, build up a voltage in opposition to the anode battery and extinguish their arcs, and so disconnect conductors 2 and 3 from line 1, while key 32 will apply a still higher voltage, operating tube 106, in consequence of which as explained previously in the case of tube 49, arcs will strike in tubes 94 and 96, connecting conductors 2 and 3 to line 3, an arc will also be caused to strike in tube 89, which will extinguish tubes 73 and 74, in the same way as the striking of an arc in tube 40 extinguished tubes 4 and '7.
It should be noted that the keys 34, 33, 32 need not be closed sequentially as stated to secure the stepwise progression from line 0 to line 3. False or double connections will not result, for instance, if key 34 is closed after key 32, an arc will strike momentarily in tube 49, but as tubes 40, 60 and 89 are already passing anode currents, tubes '73 and 'l4 and also tubes 4, 6 and 21, 23 are disabled by the action of the rectifier resistance elements 79 and 80, 13 and 14, and 26 and 2'1 in their respective anode circuits, these rectifier resistance units receiving power from tubes 40, 60 and 89 as hereinbefore explained.
Closure of key 31 will apply the maximum voltage difierence between conductors 2 and 3 and will result in the are striking in tube 111. the potentiometer and grid biasing battery 17 of which are so adjusted that only the maximum voltage will enable this tube 111 to pass an arc. When this occurs, alternating current will'flow from alternating current source 121 through the primary winding of transformer 120, condenser 112, arc path of tube 111 and so back to alternating current source 121. The secondary winding of transformer 120 will'then apply alternating current to conductors 45 and 46, to which are connected rectifier and resistance elements 91, in the anode circuit of tube 89, 61, in the anode circuit of tube 60, and 44, in the anode circuit The direct potential, developed across the resistance elements of these units in opposition to the anode batteries 12, will result winding of transformer 120 applies alternating voltage, through transformers 102 and 103 to the rectifier resistance units 100 and 101 in the anode circuits of tubes 94 and 96, extinguishing the arcs in these tubes as hereinbefore explained, and thus disconnecting conductors 2 and 3 from line 3.
At the-same time, alternating current from'the secondary'of transformer 120 is applied to the network consisting of resistances 118, 117, 114 and 115, condenser 116 andrectifier-119 in the anode circuit of tube 111. The rectifier 119' will charge up condenser 116 slowly throughthe re,- sistance 118, and current from condenser 116 will also pass through resistances 114, and 11?, developing sufiicient electromotive force in resistance 114 to oppose anode battery 12 and extinguish the arc. in tube 111, but only after a delay predetermined by value of the resistances 114, 115, 117 and 118 andcapacity' 116. This will not occur until after the quenching of the arcs in all other tubes operating before the arc struck in tube 111, and after tubes 4 and 7 have again begun to pass current. The conditions are thus restored to normal, conductors 2 and 3being connected to line 0.
While this invention has been described with respect to a particular embodiment thereof, it is not limited by the arrangements described, but includes any and all organizations falling within the scope and spirit of the appended claims. In particular,it might be found desirable in certain applications of this invention to utilize cold cathode gas-filled tubes rather than the thermionic type, thus eliminating the cathode heating batteries 6, or other quenching methods, not involving the use of rectifier and resistance elements might be employed. Such modifications are, however, within the scope of my invention.

2 or 3 of this invention. After such a line was selected and connected to circuit 2, 3, trains of coded impulses could be sent out thereover to operate arrangements, such as shown in the above copending application, connected to such a line.
Accordingly while the invention has been disclosed as embodied in certain specific arrangements which have been deemed desirable, it is pointed out that it is capable of embodiment in many and other widely varied forms without departing from the spirit of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
