A sewing machine is provided with a hinging system which supports information bearing plates and a cover therefor. The plates are confined and concealed in a recess in the machine when the cover is closed and can pivot between positions in the recess and positions opposite the rear side of the cover when the cover is open.

A light detector is supported in a mask box which extends into the cavity accommodating the looptaker with an edge of the surface adjacent the looptaker and upstream to the air currents generated by the looptaker closer to the looptaker than an edge downstream in order to discourage lint build up on the adjacent surface. A light source is fashioned with a lens projecting into the cavity accommodating the looptaker similarly to discourage lint build up.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for controlling refrigerant gas pressure in a low pressure refrigeration system including a warm surface within a container. Liquid refrigerant is removed from the refrigeration system evaporator and sprayed on the warm surface, thereby vaporizing. The resulting pressure differential between the container and the evaporator causes the vaporized refrigerant to be returned to the evaporator through an open return line. The warm, surface is downwardly concave so that non-volatile liquid which had been mixed with the refrigerant can be collected from the bottom of the surface and transported to a location remote from the evaporator, thereby separating contaminants from refrigerant.
摘要:
An arrangement for detecting a motor overload condition by examining the phase angle relationship between the motor voltage and current. As the load increases, the phase angle difference approaches zero. By measuring the zero crossings of the voltage and current and providing a signal representative of the time difference between these crossings, the phase angle relationship is determined and, accordingly, so is the motor load. Specifically, a saturable ferromagnetic core is utilized to detect the current zero crossings.

A method and apparatus for electronically pressure sealing and leak testing an idle centrifugal chiller system wherein a small positive differential is maintained between the internal refrigerant vessel pressure of the chiller system and the ambient atmosphere. This differential pressure is maintained by selectively applying heat to the refrigerant.
摘要:
An automatic door operator system is provided with a first potentiometer having its wiper arm coupled to a pivoting member whose angular position varies in accordance with the magnitude and direction of an obstructive load applied to the door. A second potentiometer is provided having its wiper arm coupled to a movable member whose position corresponds to the position of the door. The potentiometers are connected as voltage dividers and the voltages provided at their wiper arms are utilized for controlling the movement of the door.
摘要:
An arrangement for utilizing a single lead for communication and control between a controller and a switch-indicator pair. The switch and indicator are connected and the single lead is connected at a junction point of the switch and the control input of the indicator so that when the switch is closed the lead carries thereon a signal indicative of switch closure and the controller may utilize this same lead to provide a signal for controlling the energization of the indicator.
摘要:
A display system utilizing incandescent lamps arranged at the intersection points of a matrix array of row and column conductors includes a plurality of load resistors connecting the row conductors to a first voltage source and a plurality of load resistors connecting the column conductors to a second voltage source. To energize a selected lamp, the row conductor connected to that lamp is connected to the second voltage source and the column connected to that lamp is connected to the first voltage source.
摘要:
A transient voltage surge suppressor including first and second clamping stages with a surge reactor between the stages. The first stage comprises a metal oxide varistor and the second stage comprises a silicon surge suppressor diode. The surge reactor comprises first and second coils wound with the same polarity on a single ferromagnetic core.
摘要:
An improved arrangement for controlling the speed and direction of rotation of a DC motor responds to a variable bipolar input signal. A bipolar threshold detector coupled to the motor is used for the selective triggering of a triac during the appropriate half wave polarity of an AC source. Triac failure is prevented by a protection circuit. The arrangement incorporates a speed servo and senses the voltage across the triac to detect the speed of the motor.
