UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE PERIODIC MOMENTARY SWITCH Arthur z. Smith, Wading River, N. Y., assignor to Radio Corporation of America, a corporation of Delaware Application september 10, 1942, Serial No. 457,844
In the telegraph recorders as known in the I prior art there is a danger of the ink drying up or congealing in the siphon of the recorder during the periods when it is idle. This is par-.
ticularly true when the recorder is located in a place where the'atmosphere is very dry. It is a disagreeable and time-consuming task to free a clogged siphon after the ink has congealed.
This invention overcomes the above-mentioned difliculty in a simple and expedient manner by providing an improved circuit arrangement in which the recorder tape puller motor switch is shunted by an automatic switch which closes the motor circuit for approximately a half-second every hour or so, so that the paper will then move a few inches and thus permit enough ink to flow through the siphon to prevent stoppage.
This'is accomplished by employing a gaseous discharge device which will flash intermittently at a frequency determined by its characteristic and the associated circuit elements.
This invention will, best be understood by referring to the accompanying drawing in which the. single figure is a circuit diagram o'f'the invention.
Referring now in detail to the drawing, there is shown a gaseous discharge device I, which may be in the form of a neon lamp, or any other type which will flash and conduct current upon a rise of voltage. Device I is connected in circuit with a source of direct current voltage supply 2 and an amplifier electron discharge device 3 having an anode 4, grid 5 and cathode}. A charging resistance I of relatively high value, such as in the order of 400 megohms, is connected in series between the voltage supply source 2 and the gaseous discharge device I, and is arranged in circuit with a condenser 8 of approximately microfarads so that the neon lamp will not glow unless more than the critical ignition voltage is impressed upon it by the discharge of the condenser. The neon lamp I is of the type which will remain lit until the voltage supply 7 Claims. (Cl. 234-15) erally a few volts less than the ignition voltage.
' The building up of a suflicient voltage across the device I will be delayed until the condenser 8 is charged. Finally, when the ignition voltage is reached. the condenser 8 will then discharge through the neon lamp. With this arrangement the electron discharge device 3 normally conducts current therethrough. A circuit is thus provided through the. electron discharge device 3 and is such that the anode 4 is connected to energize the magnet of a relay 9, having back contact IIA connected in shunt with a control switch I2. The
' forward contact II is not connected to any circult. The switch I2 is arranged in series with a motor I4 and a voltage supply source I3, so as to control the operation of motor I I, which pulls the telegraph recorder tape I5. The siphon for supplying the ink to tape I5 is indicated at It. In the operation of this switch the gaseous device I will flash intermittently at a frequency determined by its characteristics, the applied potential and the values of condenser 8 and charging resistance 1. Finally, when the ignition voltage is reached the condenser discharges through device I and the grid resistance I1. When the voltage falls below the extinguishing point, the discharge'stops and the condenser begins to get another charge from the voltage supply source 2, and the cycle of operation thus repeats itself. The time between discharges can be adjusted to any desired value by the proper choice of the values of the condenser 8 and resistance 1. The supply voltage and characteristics of the particular discharge device used also are factors in determining the time adjustment.
The discharge current from the condenser 8 sets up a voltage across the charging resistor, which is in series with the discharge path. This developed voltage applies a cut-off potential to the triode amplifier 3. The cut-off of the tube's plate current deenergizes the magnet and releases the telegraph relay 9, the back contact I IA closes the circuit and operates the puller motor I4 for the short duration of the discharge of device I if the recorder is in an inactive state with switch I 2 open. The insertion of the grid resistor I! increases the length of time of discharge, but as such is no disadvantage in this invention. For the purpose of actuating the motor I4 independent of thedischarge device I and condenser 8, a test switch I8 is connected through a two megohm resistance I9, and because it has a lower value of resistance than the charging resistor 'I it falls below the extinction voltage, which is gen- 58 is usedto decrease the period of operation to a 3 few seconds to facilitate test or adjustment of the relay.
No means is provided to prevent the device from actuating when the recorder is in constant use because its action does no harm when the recorder is in constant use. If it is anticipated that the recorder is to be in constant use the device could, if preferred, be removed as a whole. As an alternative, a switch could be placed in any one of a number of places to prevent actuation. (For instance, the switch could be placed to break one of the connections between the relay and switch l2; or the switch could be placed to break the plus 135 hit line going to the 400 megohms resistance.)
While only one circuit arrangement is shown, it is to be understood that this device is useful in connection with any siphon type of recorder which must stand idle for long periods time.
