  • Figure 1 shows a circuit means for producing indications of the difference in power drawn by different circuits which may supply parallel transmitters and for producing energy characteristic of said difference and using the same to re-adjust said transmitters
  • Figure 2 shows details of one means for adjusting the amount of power drawn by said transmitters by adjusting the load on said transmitters.
  • Figure 1 shows an exemplified embodiment of the idea applied to the potential supply circuit of two transmitters.
  • the scheme is here predicated upon a comparison of the falls of potential across equal resistances R1 and R2 inserted in the leads to the parallel transmitters shown schematically as including stages #1 and #2 coupling a source of wave energy to a radiating system.
  • the voltmeter V is preferably of the type with right hand and left hand deflection readings, and it may be calibrated to read directly in terms of amperes of the differential current flowing in R1 and R2. Under normal operating conditions, when both transmitters have the same current intake, the said instrument V will register no deflection and its pointer will take up a mean zero position.
  • the transmitters may be regulated as to any of their operating characteristics.
  • the drive mechanisms of the antenna couplings of both transmitters which normally insure simplification of operation and manipulation are fixedly connected with each other, must include disengaging means in order that the several couplings may be set independently of each other to put equal loads on the several stages.
  • a further development, and a further object of the invention is that the relative adjustment of the drives of both antenna couplings is made automatic in action, and this is accomplished, for instance, by a circuit including the circuit arrangement shown in Figure l cooperating with a control circuit and a novel drive mechanism.
  • An exemplified embodiment of the coupling controlling mechanism and controlling circuit is illustrated in Figure 1, while one embodiment of the drive mechanism for the adjusting means has been shown in detail in Figure 2.
  • two driving shafts W1 and W2 for the antenna coupling means of any type are inter-coupled by an equalizing gear system which in this instance, consists of a planetary gear system.
  • the shafts W1 and W2 correspond to controls W1 and W2 of Figure l.
  • Shaft W1 supported at 8 supports in an arm ID, the bearing for the tooth-Wheel Z1 which meshes with the second tooth-wheel Z2 and the internal teeth of the casing G.
  • the casing G which may be driven by motor C acting on gear elements 12 and I4 on the outer periphery of G is supported by shaft W1.
  • Z2 is supported by shaft W3.
  • Shaft W2 is supported at it.
  • Shaft W3 is connected through reduction gearing A to a shaft W2 connected to the coupling means between a second transmitter and the antenna.
  • the gearing A insures that the same speed is established between W1 and W2.
  • A may be used for a transient disengagement between W1 and W2 in order that both shafts and couplings may be moved separately from each other, say, by the agency of hand wheel H1 and H2.
  • the gears in A are normally kept in mesh by action of spring S and support l9. Pressure on H2 in a direction to the right will disengage gears A.
  • Rotation of the drives for shafts W1 and W2 relative to each other to regulating the load distribution over both transmitters is effected by turning the casing G.
  • a self-locking worm gear 62 and M is provided for the movement of G.
  • the worm i2 is driven by a motor armature C capable of rotation in either direction under the control of the differential current when the stages operate at difierent loads.
  • Figure 1 also illustrates the wiring circuit for the driving motor C connected with the gear case G, the motor being in this instance of the serieswound type and being connected with a gear [2 as shown in Figures 1 and 2 which meshes with gear M as shown in Figure 2.
  • the relay is fundamentally actuated in the same manner as the volt-meter V of Figure 1.
  • fhe voltmeter of Figure 1 is supplemented by a contact closing device comprising reactors R3 and R4 connected with the supply leads to transmitter stages numbers l and 2 and with the resistors R1 and R2 in series with said leads. Differential currents in these resistors act on the reactors R3 and R4 to control the position of the armature 20 so that in the presence of unequal loads in the parallel transmitters either contact 25 or 22 is closed.
  • Contacts 2! and 22 are connected through the windings of solenoids F1, F2, the armatures of which are connected to multiple switches 2d and 26.
  • Contacts 2i and 22 are also in circuit with a solenoid H, the armature 28 of which is connected to a break normally bearing on the surface or" a wheel 39 connected with the armature C of a series wound motor M for driving the casing G by way of worm drive l2.
  • the breaking mechanism 23, 38 is normally engaged to hold the armature C from rotation and thereby fix the position of the casing G.
  • the solenoid Winding H and one of the windings F1, F2 are energized by the closing of contacts 2! and 22.
  • the energizing circuit includes a source E.
  • the field winding 32 of motor M is in a circuit which, when completed by one of the switches 24 or 26 and the switch 3 controlled by H, includes a source of energizing potential 36.
  • Circuits through the windings F1 and FH are in a like manner completed to rotate the motor M in the opposite direction when the contact 2i is closed. It is thought unnecessary to trace these circuits and describe this operation since the circuits and operation will be apparent from the detailed description of the circuits completed and the operation of the system when the circuits are completed by the closing of 22.
  • a load distribution device is preferably disposed between each pair of transmitter stages. ment of all stages may be made feasible, all of the stages could be made dependent upon one and the master stage which is uninfiuenced by the sense of balancing in that between each regulated stage and the master stage a distinct load distributer device is connected.
