Definitions

  • FIG. 1 is a diagram of the subscribers end ofa telephone system embodying my invention.
  • Fig. '2 is a similar diagram of another embodiment.
  • the transducer LM works as a microphone, or as a loud-speaker according to whether it is connected to the input or to the output of an amplifier V.
  • the change-over from transmission to reception and vice versa is effected by switches ul and U2, which may be manually operated or controlled by a suitable relay (not shown).
  • switches ul and U2 which may be manually operated or controlled by a suitable relay (not shown).
  • switch ul With the circuitin condition for transmission of a signal, one lead of the transducer LM, acting as a microphone, is connected by switch ul with the input transformer E of the amplifier. V, the other lead going to ground.
  • the output transformer A is connected through the switch 142 and through a switch AS with a head set receiver H, which is located at the subscribers station.
  • the lead from the amplifier is connected to the midpoint of the winding of the receiver H.
  • One end of the said winding is connected through the distribution point a with one winding "of a'transformer LU, the other winding of which is connected with the terminals al and bl of the line.
  • the other end of the winding of the head set H is connected through a balance circuit N to ground.
  • the balance N consists of a circuit, the impedance of which correspond with that of the transformer LU loaded by the subscriber's line.
  • the winding of the head set receiver H is thus in efiect divided into two parts, hi and M, the lead from the amplifier V being connected to the mid point between the two parts of the winding.
  • the impedance of the path from the mid point of said winding, through the winding part hi, the transformer LU, to ground, is the same as that of the path from the mid-point of the winding through the winding part b2, and the balance circuit N to ground.
  • the amplified signal current from the transducer LM acting as a microphone is distributed into two equal portions in the receiver H, half of it flowing through the coil hi andthe other half flowing through the coil h2.
  • Fig. 2 The circuit shown in Fig. 2 is basically the same as that of Fig. 1 and the corresponding parts are designated by the same reference char acters. It difiers from the circuit of Fig. 1 in 2,461,945 I i v.: l
  • the location of the distribution point a is difierent, being located in the lead between the head set receiver H and the amplifier V.
  • Fig. 2 The arrangement shown in Fig. 2 is especial- ,ly advantageous when the subscribers station is working as a receiver and the sound energy output of the loud-speaker LM is so high as to cause the head-set receiver H to work as a microphone.
  • acoustic reaction might occur in the circuit of Fig. 1, since a part, of the current created by the head-set H acting as a microphone could flow through the winding coil hi, the distribution point a. and the changeover switch ui, to the amplifier V.
  • a microphone produces no potential difierence between the distribution point a and ground, and consequently no signal current from the headset H will fiow through the input transformer E of the amplifier. Acoustic reaction between the transducer LM and the head-set H is thereby prevented.
  • an electro-acoustic circuit With a transducer, an amplifier having an input and an output, a telephone receiver having a winding, a. transformer for coupling the transducer circuit to an outside line and switching means connecting the transducer alternately to the input of said amplifier for transmission and to the output for reception of a signal, of a balance circuit, means including said switching means connecting the input of the amplifier with 4 said transformer when said switching means is in position for reception of a signal by the transducer, and means including said'switching means connecting the output of said amplifier with the midpoint of the winding of said receiver when said switching means is in position for transmission of a signal by the transducer, one end of said winding being connected with one terminal of one of the windings of said transformer and the other end being connected through said balance circuit with the other terminal of said transformer winding, the impedance of said balance circuit being substantially identical with the effective impedance of said transformer winding whereby output current from the amplifier is divided substantially equally between the two halves of the winding of the telephone
  • a circuit as claimed in claim 1, in which the means for connecting the input of the amplifier with the transformer comprises a connection between the input of the amplifier and the midpoint of said telephone receiver winding.
