Abstract:
Method and apparatus for control of DC motor directly connected to actuating element of control or regulating device with step actuation of motor by pulse modulation in trains of individual pulses whose energy content is varied in dependence on the force requirement to move the mechanical member.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for isothermal calorimetry in which the temperature within the calorimeter is maintained at a constant value by the application of energy in the form of pulses of constant power, which pulses are counted and summated, the number of pulses per unit time being determined by temperature control means.

In a casing, comprising at least two members, for an electrical machine, in which two mating coaxial members are adapted to be secured together by a single or multi-part locking ring, each of the members is provided with a grooved skirt whose outer circumference is less than that of the adjacent part of the member; the skirt is either continuous, in which case the two mating members taken together provide two axially-separated grooves for engagement by an appropriately-shaped locking ring, or the skirt is interrupted to form projections which fit between the projections of the mating member, in which case only one groove, in effect, is provided, for engagement by a differentlyshaped locking ring. As shown in Fig. 13, the invention is applied to an axial air-gap motor having two disc armatures 3 and four annuli of permanent magnet stator poles 3a; the casing comprises two end members 1, 2, and an intermediate member 23. (In Fig. 1, not shown, the motor has only one disc armature, two annuli of stator poles, and a casing comprising two end members only). Fig. 2 shows an end view of a member 1 where the skirt is continuous: the outermost circumference shown is that of the skirt itself. Regularlyspaced arcuate portions of the land 6 between the groove 4 and the meeting face are removed at 7, so that a U-section locking ring 5, Fig. 4a, having internal gaps 10, may be slid axially on to the skirt into contact with the far side (not shown) of the groove 4. (The scale of Fig. 4a is slightly less than that of Fig. 2.) Then the skirt of a mating member may be inserted into the other face of the locking ring 5, with its recesses 7 aligned with the recesses of the member 1, until it makes contact with member 1. Finally, locking ring 5 is rotated to lock the members together and to retain the ring in position. Tapered surfaces may be provided to produce a wedge action on rotation. A moisture- or dust-proof joint may be formed by grooving the meeting faces of the members and incorporating an 0-ring seal in the space provided. The casing may be rendered explosion-proof by an additional ring such as is shown at 12 in Fig. 11, and in this case the locking ring 5 is secured at intervals around its circumference by screws (Fig. 6, not shown), releasable only by a special tool. Relative rotation of the mating members may be prevented by one or more axiallydirected locating pins or dowels (Fig. 5, not shown). As shown in Figs. 8 and 11, the skirt is interrupted to form projections 15 which are accommodated in the gaps 16 between corresponding projections on the mating member so that groove portions 17 form effectively a single groove into which may be inserted a split locking ring 19, Fig. 9. A continuous peripheral land 18 is left near the edge of maximum diameter of each mating member to assist exclusion of dust. The locking ring 19 may be secured in place by means of a pin located in an axial bore in one member and urged into a hole in the ring by a spring disposed in the bore behind the pin (Figs. 12a, 12b, not shown). Each locking ring may consist of a number of parts.

A valve positioning motor M of low inertia is energized from an A.C. source with trains of D.C. pulses through one or the other of two thyristors St1, St2, according to direction of rotation, triggering being effected by circuits I, II in response to signals from an electronic regulator R, the triggering circuits being switched to their non-triggering state when the charge on a capacitor C1 or C2 balances the signal from R; the capacitor is charged by the rectified A.C. component of the pulsed D.C. motor current. Charge rate is adjustable by a rheostat R1 or R2 and discharge is through a second rheostat between 6, 7, the triggering circuit switching back to the triggering condition when the charge drops below the regulator signal. The motor torque can be different in each direction, by energizing the respective thyristors from separate transformer windings, and a battery may be automatically connected to the motor to drive the valve to one end of its travel in the event of failure of the normal supply, (Fig. 3, not shown). Provision is made for manual operation of the valve.
