  • the copper cladding 86a is preferably gold plated.
  • the diaphragm board 56 has openings 88z, 90z, and 92z therein which are similar to the other openings 88, 90, and 92 and are provided for the groove 74 and opening 80 in the receiver board 52 and film 54 respectively.
  • the bonding film 58 (see FIG. 12) has relatively large diameter openings 96a 96.x and 962 which are respectively concentric with the openings 76a 761; and 80 in the film 54 and thereby with the other openings which are described above concentrically located with respect to the openings 76 and 80. i
  • the contact board 60 may be of epoxy glass (which is thus electrically non-conducting and is rigid); and, on the lower side, it has a copper cladding 98 bonded to it (see FIG. 13).
  • the cladding 98 has areas 100a 100x lying respectively in alignment with the openings 96a 96x and each of these areas is etched out to the board 60 itself along straight parallel lines 10221, 102b, 1020, 102d, and l02e.

  • the contact board 60 is provided with a plurality of A relatively small diameter holes 106a 106x and 1062, which extend through the board including the copper cladding 98. These holes 106 lie withinthe respective areas 100a 100x and 1001 for purposes to be described. Y
  • the backplate 64 is of substantial thickness and is formed with a pair of grooves 112 and 114 (see FIG.
  • flimsy film forming diaphragms are bonded onto the shoulders 122 forming the bottoms of the grooves 112 and 114.
  • Small air bleed openings 124 extend through the backplate 64 and are in communication with the grooves 116 and 118.
  • the parts 52 64 are bonded together in order to make them into the diaphragm switch assembly 14 with the parts 52 64 being in contact.
  • the films 54, 58, 62, and 84 effectively bond together the parts with which they are in contact.
  • the electrical switches including the helical cladding contact portions 94 and the contact portions of the cladding defined by the lines 102a 102e and within the areas 100, are effectively within a container which is closed with respect to atmospheric air.
  • These contact portions are in communication with the openings 108 and 110 and the grooves 112, 114, 116, and 118 by means of the holes 106, and the film pieces 120 effectively seal the contact portions from atmosphere.
  • the rotor 34 of the pump 12 is driven so that the pump provides air under pressure within the plenum chamber 26. Air discharges through the ports 44; and, assuming that there are openings 18 in register with particular ports 44, air under pressure enters the respective openings 66a 66x in receiver board 52; and air under pressure is transmitted through the connected grooves 72a 72x and the respective openings 76a 76x, 88a 88x, and 90a 90x to the respective circular portions 92a 92x of the film 86.
  • the card 16 acts as a barrier, preventing the transfer of a pressure pulse to the receiving ports 66a 66x; and the corresponding switches including the spiral portions 94 and the corresponding parts of the cladding 98 are not made or do not make contact.
  • the principal purpose of the longitudinal grooves 68 is to eliminate crosstalk between the receiver openings 66a 66x so that only an opening 18 in the card 16 in exact alignment with a port 66 will cause the corresponding switch to be closed.
  • the ribs between the grooves 68 effectively function to isolate each of the grooves 68 and their receiver ports 66a 66x with respect to each other for this purpose.
  • the grooves 68 on the receiver board 52 have still another purpose. If a document card 16 were flat against the lower surface 67 of the receiver board 52 the card would prevent the air in a port 66a 66x, previously supplied with air under pressure through a document card hole 18, from immediately exhausting after the card hole has moved beyond the port 660 66x in the receiver board 52.
  • the longitudinal grooves 68 in the lower surface of the receiver board 52 allow the immediate exhausting from a port 66a 66:: even though the card 16 may lie tightly against the lower surface 67 of the board 52, thus preventing a signal from existing too long as the card 16 passes from a position in which a particular column 20 of holes 18 is read to the position for reading the next column 20.
  • the longitudinal grooves 68 also have another function, namely of maintaining the document card 16 out of contact with the ports 66a 661:, thus preventing a possible blocking of these ports by lint from the card. Cards 16 in passing across the ports would tend to scrape their fibers into the ports, providing such a contamination; but, the grooves 68 hold a card 16 out of contact with the lower ends of the ports 66a 66x.
  • the longitudinal grooves 46 provide an air bleed for each of the ports 44 in the plenum 10 which is particularly desirable in connection with the positive displacement type of pump 12 that is illustrated.
  • a positive displacement pump it is desirable to keep a constant output flow, as by means of the grooves 46 in connection with the ports 44, so that the output pressure of the pump 12 does not change materially. Without the grooves 46, such a material variation of output pressure. of the pump 12 would occur if a card '16 were tight against the upper surface 42 of the plenum 10, which could very well happen with a bent card 16. Such a bent card in this case would block all of the openings 44 so that the output of the pump 12 would effectively be reduced to zero.
  • the grooves 46 in the plenum 10 as well as the grooves 68 in the. diaphragm switch assembly contribute to prevent crosstalk, since the grooves on both the air receive and supply sides on the two surfaces of the card 16 are vented and both a hole and a no hole condition in the card 16 are thus vented.
  • the ports 44 in the plenum 10 are located in the card transport on a line perpendicular to the direction A of card motion, and these ports are of a converging design so as to obtain a nearly uniform air velocity across the jet at the exit from a port 44.
  • the ports 66 in the diaphragm switch assembly are located directly across from the ports 44 so that the static air pressure head is supplied through a hole 18 in a document card to the corresponding hole 660 66x of the diaphragm switch assembly thus definitely electrically contact with the corresponding spiral cladding portion 94.
  • the slots 102a 102e provide an edge contact with the spiral cladding portion, resulting in lower contact resistance.
  • the channels, including the grooves 72a 72x, connecting the ports with the corresponding parts of the film 86 carrying the spiral cladding portions 94 are made as small as practical; so as to keep the volume of air in them as small as practically possible to thereby improve response time for the switches.
  • the film 86 and the diaphragms 120 effectively provide closed containers for each of the switches which includes a helical cladding portion 94 and a cladding portion a 100x.
