Definitions

  • the news or signals are transmitted from one place to the other by way of long cables or overhead lines.
  • One operator connects the transmittmg station with the outgoing end of such a cable or line of connection, while another operator will connect the incoming end of said cable or line with the receiving station.
  • Connection lines both in cables and overhead lines are open to trouble, caused by the influence of inductivity and capacity through the line proper or through neighbouring lines.
  • a difierent potential will be placed alternatively on the telegraph lines over which the signals are transmitted, while on the subscribers connection lines of the transmitting and receiving stations only a determined potential must be placed, when impulses of current are sent from a transmitting station to a receiving station for the purpose of transmission of news.
  • the operator at the intermediate station being connected to the transmitt ng station will connect the calling station with the outgoing line of connection, while the operator of the station to which the receivmg station is connected will connect the incoming overhead or cable line with the connection line of the desired receiving station.
  • the following case may happen, that an intermediate station is provided whose operator will connect two overhead or cable lines, if the exchange of the sending station is not in direct connection with the exchange of the receiving station. In that instance the operator of the intermediate station will connect the incoming end of the first overhead or cable line with the outgoing end of the second overhead or cable line.
  • connection lines of the various telegraph stations only a determined potential must be placed, while on the connection main lines alternatively a different potential may be placed, when signals or news are sent by way of such lines.
  • the present invention relates to an arrangement, in which one and the same wire or wires may be used for all purposes, both for connecting the subscribers line of the sending station to the connection main line and also the connecting line to the connecting line and the connecting line to the subscribers line of the receiving station.
  • Figure 1 is a diagrammatic view of the arrangement
  • Figure 2 shows a detail
  • a in Figure 1 denotes a telegraph station which is equipped both with a receiving apparatus E and with a transmitting device T.
  • the exchange station V In the exchange station V are arranged the necessary connecting means for effecting telegraphic connections.
  • Each telegraph line entering the exchange station has associated with it a differential relay R or R which operates to relay the incoming message from the transmitting station to the receiving station connected thereto by a connecting cord at the exchange station.
  • the telegraph station A is to transmit some news to a receiving station not illustrated in Figure 1.
  • the telegraph station A will call in known manner the operator at the exchange V. The arrangement for such call is not shown in Figure 1, since this is quite immaterial for the subject matter of invention. If the attention of the operator at the exchange station V is attracted by said call, he will connect to the transmitting station A and will accept the instructions of the transmitting station. He then will connect the transmitting station A with the desired receiving station either directly or by way of a line of connection.
  • A is connected by the operator at the exchange V by way of a line of connection with the desired receiving station.
  • This is etl'ect- 'ed'hy the operator by means ofa connecting I-Ie introduces one end of the said cord into the jack KL and the other end thereof into the jack KL wherebythe transmitting station A is connected with the trunk line.
  • Both ends oi the connecting cord are equal per se and consist of tour leads a, b, c and (Z.
  • a second operator at another exchange will then connect by means. of thesame cord the incoming end of the trunk line VL with the subscribefis connection line of the desired receiving station, or the case may occur that an. intermediatestation is provided, whose operator will connect the incoming end of the first trunk line VL leading from the exchange V with a second trunk line going out from said'exchangc. All kinds of connection will be carried out according to themvention by one andthe same connecting cord.
  • the transmitting station A isconnected by the operator at the exchange V with the end going out from V of the trunk line VL, the said transmitting station A may emit the impulses.
  • the following circuits are closed: ground, receiving apparatus E of the transmitting station A, transmitter T of the trans mitting station A, winding I of the relay R jack KL, wire d of the connecting cord, back contact 13, battery B and ground.
  • the impulses corresponding to the news to be transmitted will be omitted.
  • the said impulses are transterred'by the contact 93 to the trunk line VL connected with the transmitting station A.
  • the battery B at. the exchange V is connected in an opposite sense and by means of the contact i the positive and negative poles are alternatively connected to the trunk line during telegraphing. If the relay R is op erated the positive pole of the battery B is connected with the trunk line by way of the following circuit: ground, positive pole of the battery, jack KL wire 0, lead 0 reversed contact '23, lead a jack KL, lead a, winding I of the relay R and trunk line VL.
  • the relay will drop for the first time, the negative pole of the battery B will be connected to the trunk line VL by *ay of ground, negative pole of the battery B, back contact 13, lead 8,, jack KL, wire a, jack KL winding I of the relay R and trunlc l ne VL.
  • the relay R allotted to the trunk a VL, will not be operated.
  • the relay R constructed as diiierential relay and tl'irough the two windings I and II thereof the current will How in opposite directions.
  • At the other end of the trunk line VL terminating at the connecting point of a second exchange there is connected the same battery as the battery B of the exchange V.
  • the impulses emitted by the transmitting station A will then be transferred to a relay, which is provided. at the incoming end of the trunk line VL.
  • This relay can operate, since both windings oi? the ditlerential relay pass the current in the same direction. It will transfer the impulses to the desired receiving station, which is connected by means of the same cord as that represented in Figure 1 to the incoming on d oi the trunk line VL.
  • the resistances V and V and the condensers C C in the subs -ribcrs connection of the transmitting station A are provided as compensating devices, which are known per se. This will also apply to the resistances V V and and the condensers C and C, provid ed at the outgoing end of the trunk line VL.
  • the resistances ⁇ V, and W are variable in order to easily adapt the sensitivity of the relays R, and R to the leads, for which they are provided.
  • the transmitting station A is to receive news from another transmitting station, namely by way of the trunk line VL no dili 'ercnt potential will he alternately connected to the subscribefis connection at the transmitting station A during telegraphing, but the current flowing in a delinitc direction through the receiving apparatus E at the transmitting station A is only interrupted impulse-wise. This is done in the following manner:
  • the relay I'l constitutes the transferring relay, which will transfer the emitted impulses of current to the receiving station A over the contact 93.
  • the circuit is as follows: ground, negative. pole of the battery B, back contact T5,, jack KI lead (Z, jack KL, winding I 0]" the relay R transmitting apparatus T, receiving apparatus E and ground.
  • Both the relays S and S for the end signal may be connected to the connecting cord, as this is shown in Figure 2. To each connecting cord two relays for the end signal are allotted. The action of the end signal is as follows: I
  • the two contacts 823 and st are closed and besides the relays S and S for the end signal are actuated.
  • Each of these relays S and S will follow during telegraphing the impulses emitted and is excited and deenergized alternately.
  • the closing of the contact 86 the following circuit will be closed: ground, working contact .96 back contact 12, winding of the relay Z, battery and ground.
  • the relay Z will actuate its contacts 12 and 2.2.
  • the relay Z proper By opening of the contact 12 the relay Z proper will interrupt its circuit and drop off, causing the back contact 12 to return to its position of rest. At that instant the relay will again become energized.
  • the relay Z will thus operate as interrupting relay.
  • a circuit for the relay F is formed by way of: ground, closed contact st working contact 22, winding of the relay F, battery and ground.
  • the relay F will follow synchronously the automatic interruptin relay Z and it is energized and disenergized in succession.
  • the relay F is likewise energized and disenergized in synchronism with the automatic interrupting relay Z.
  • the circuit is as follows: ground, working contact st working contact 36, winding I of the relay F, battery and ground.
  • the relay F is provided with a winding II actuating a rising wheelmechanism not shown in Figure 2.
  • the two relays S and S for the end signal will no longer drop off impulse-wise, and they will remain energized as long as the connecting cord is introduced in the acks.
  • the escapement wheel is adjusted through I the winding I of the relay F without the same being returned to its position of rest by the winding II of the relay F.
  • the contact 6 is then closed, so that the following circuit for the end signal lamp is effected: ground, working contact .925 working contact 6f, end signal lamp L, battery'and ground.
  • the end signal lamp L will be lit and indicates to the operator at the exchange that the telegraphing operation is finished and that he may interrupt the connection.
  • the end signal lamp L will not be lit immediately after the emission of the impulses terminates, but only after a certain period. If thus a telegraph station wishes to repeat once more the telegraphing, this can be done without difficulty, since the end signal lamp L will be lit only after a certain period, after the expiry of which the operator will sever the connection. IVhile pulling out both ends of the connecting cord fro-m the jacks KL and KL the contacts st and 86 are again opened, the relays Z, E and F drop off and the lamp L of the end signal becomes extinguished.
