Definitions

  • This invention relates to timing devices and more particularly to a novel system for effecting precisely-timed energization of an inductive load.
  • the controlling means may be a solenoid valve whose winding is inherently an inductive element.
  • the inductive load element is energized from a source of unidirectional current, the inertia of said element is very pronounced and causes destructive arcing at relay contacts.
  • the principal object of the present invention is to provide a novel timing control system which is adapted to effect precisely-timed energization of an inductive load element, and to prevent current arcing in the circuit of said element due to the inductance.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a novel timing system of this character in which the timing function is achieved by the charging of a timing capacitor.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide such a system wherein at least one electron device is utilized and is under control of the timing capacitor.
  • Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic illustration of one form of the timing system provided by the present invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic illustration Referring first to Fig. 1, there is shown at I0 1 an inductive element which is to be energized from a source of voltage during a precisely timed interval.
  • This element might be the winding of a solenoid valve or it might be any other inductive element.
  • This arrangement provides positive voltages, e. g. +150 volts, at the output conductors 29 and 30 with respect to the grounded conductor 3
  • the conductor 29 supplies direct current of considerable magnitude, but not especially well filtered or regulated, for operating the load Ill, whereas conductor 30 supplies a relatively weak well-filtered and regulated current to the control electron tube as hereinafter described.
  • an A. C. control voltage is derived from the supply unit i3 by means of conductors 33 and 34 connected as shown. By means of these conductors, operating voltage is supplied. to a controlling relay 35 and to an overload relay 36.
  • the relay 35 has an operating winding 31 and three sets of contacts 38, 39 and 40.
  • the relay 36 has an operating winding 4
  • the operating winding 31 of relay 35 is connected across conductors 33 and 34 through a starting switch 45 and the contacts 42 of relay 35. Contacts of relay 35 are connected in a holding circuit which is in shunt relation with the starting switch 45.
  • the operating winding 4! of relay 36 is included in a circuit which extends from conductor 29 through the contacts 38 of relay 35, and via conductor 4'! and resistor 48 to one end of the inductive element It, the other end of which is connected to the grounded conductor 49.
  • Conductor 30 is connected through contacts 39 of relay 35 to conductor 41A.
  • Resistors 5G, 5! and 52 are serially connected between conductor 41A and conductor 52.
  • An electron tube 53 which may be a triode as shown, has its cathode grounded, its grid connected through a resistor 54 to a movable tap on resistor 51, and its anode connected to conductor 41A through the winding 55 of a relay 56.
  • a timing capacitor 51 is connected between the grid and cathode of tube 53.
  • the relay 56 serves to control, through its contacts 58, a short circuit about the inductive load I0.
  • the power supply unit functions to supply the above-mentioned voltages, and the capacitor 5'! is charged to 105 volts by current flow through resistors 5!, 52 and 54, but the system does not operate until the reset switch 44 and the starting switch 45 have been momentarily depressed.
  • the reset switch 44 is first closed momentarily to close the contacts of relay 36; then the starting switch 45 is closed momentarily, thus energizing the relay through the closed contacts of relay 36.
  • the relay 35 locks itself in through its holding contacts 40.
  • the energization of relay 35 closes the energizing circuit of the inductive load ID and also applies plate voltage to the tube 53. However the grid of tube 53 is biased beyond cut-off by the negative voltage across capacitor 51, and therefore the tube remains non-conductive.
  • capacitor 51 charges toward a voltage determined by the bleeder resistors 56, 5 i, 52 through resistor 54.
  • this voltage reaches the cut-oilvoltage of the grid of tube 53, the tube conducts and thus energizes relay 53, which closes the short circuit about the inductive load it].
  • the current flow through resistor 48 suddenly increases, and the surge of current from the power supply flows through the trip coil 4! of relay 36 which opens contacts 42 and deenergizes relay "35.
  • the opening of the relay contacts 38 and 39 interrupts the main circuit and also removes the plate voltage from tube 53. The system will not operate again until the relay 36 is again reset and starting switch is closed.
  • the energization of the inductive load It is precisely timed by the charging of capacitor 51 and is controlled through the operation of tube 53. Moreover, the inductive load is short circuited before the circuit is opened, so that there is no arcing at the contacts.
  • Fig. 2 there is shown therein a preferred embodiment of the invention wherein the control action is effected by means of a dual electron tube, or two separate tubes, as hereinafter described.
  • the inductive load is again shown at 10, and a short-circuiting connection therefor is controlled by the relay 56 as in the first embodiment.
  • the power supply I3 is shown in block form with the voltage supply conductors 29, 30, 32, 33 and 34 extending therefrom.
  • the A. C. control voltage supplied by way of conductors 33 and 34 is utilized .to control relays 59 and 60.
  • of relay 66 is connected across conductors 33 and 34 through a normally open starting switch 62.
  • Contacts 63 of the same relay are included in a holding circuit 64 which is connected in shunt with the starting switch 52 and which may include a stepping switch 65.
  • the winding 66 of relay 59 is connected across conductors 33 and 34 through normally open contacts 6'! of relay 60.
  • Voltage supply conductor 29 is connected to the ungrounded end of the inductive element [0 through normally open contacts 68 of relay 59 and also through a resistor 59.
  • Voltage supply conductor 36 is connected to the right-hand anode of a doubletriode tube 76 through normally open contacts "H of relay 59, and also through conductor '42 and the winding of relay 56.
  • Conductor 35 is also connected to the lefthand anode of tube 3'3 through a resistor 73.
  • the timed ener- -ization of the inductive load 10 is effected through charging of a timing capacitor 14 which is connected between the right-hand grid of tube "it and ground.
  • This capacitor is charged through a resistor 15 from a potentiometer arrangement comprising resistors I6 and 1'! serially connected between conductor 72 and a con ductor 18, the latter beingconnected to conductor 32.
  • the cathodes of tube :9 are connected through a resistor 19 to the conductor 18.
  • the left-hand grid of tube 10 is connected to ground through a resistor 89.
  • the right-hand anode of the tube is connected to the left-hand grid through a capacitor 8i.
  • the left-hand anode is connected to the right-hand grid through a capacitor 82.
  • Voltage supply conductor 32 is connected through normally closed contacts 83 of relay 58 and through a resistor 85 to the ungrounded plate of capacitor 4.
  • the power supply unit when the switch I2 is closed, the power supply unit provides the desired voltages but the system will not operate until the starting switch 62 is actuated.
  • the left-hand triode section of tube 13 With the system in its inoperative state, i. e. prior to actuation of the starting switch, the left-hand triode section of tube 13 is conductive by virtue of the positive voltage applied to the left-hand anode from conductor 36 through resistor 13. Consequently, the voltage drop across resistor 19 maintains the cathodes of the tube at a predetermined negative potential, e. g. -10 volts. At this time, the right-hand triode section of the tube is non-conductive.
  • the grid of the right-hand triode section of tube 70 is driven to a potential such that the right-hand triode section starts to conduct, and the current flow substantially lowers the voltage at the right-hand anode.
  • This drop in voltage is communicateated by capacitor 8! to the grid of the left-hand section, which causes that section to decrease its anode current flow, thereby increasing its anode voltage.
  • This increase of anode voltage is communicated to the grid of the right-hand triode section by capacitor 82, causing a further increase in anode current and drop of anode voltage of the right-hand section, which is communicated as a voltage drop to the grid of the left-hand section.
  • This action continues and causes rapid cumulative build-up of the current through the winding of relay 56.
  • This current build-up is very abrupt once the capacitor '14 has charged to the critical grid voltage of the righthand triode section.
  • An important advantage of this control action is that it eliminates error due to slight variations in the operating point of relay 53 which would appear as timing errors if a relatively gradual current build-up were employed.
  • the relay 56 When the relay 56 operates, it closes the shortcircuit connection about the inductive load element l0, thereby effectively deenergizing that element. Following the short-circuiting of element switch 65.
  • Theholding switch 65 may be actuated in any. suitable manner.
  • the controlled device is a solenoid valveand the inductive element In is the-solenoid winding
  • the holding switch 65' may be automatically" actuated by the movement of the solenoid valve: through a suitable operating arrangement.
  • connection controlled by contacts 83 of relay 59 is to cheat positive return of, the charge of capacitor 14 to the normal starting voltage through a circuit with a very small time constant, so that the length of the time interval between operations will have no effect on the duration of the timed interval.
  • both. of the illustrated embodiments eficct precisely timed energization of an inductive load by means of a timing capacitor, and the voltage across the capacitor serves to control a normallyinoperative short-circuitingmeans associated with the inductive load.
  • the control action is effected through the medium of an electron tube.
  • the control is efiected byv dual tube. action as above described. It will be apparent that in the latter system, twoseparate tubes could be used in place of the double triode I tube which is used only for convenience and simplicity.
