  • Pulse counting and pulse rate indicating device responsive to abrupt pulse rate change to accurately indicate current rate
    Patent number: 4648104
    Abstract: A pulse counting device wherein a number of pulses is stored in a first register out of a plurality of registers, and subsequently a new pulse number counted is stored in the first register and pulse numbers stored in the registers are successively shifted with a pulse number erased from a final register. The pulse numbers stored in the respective registers are corrected dependent on the latest pulse number stored in the first register, and a value dependent on the corrected values stored in all of the registers is displayed. If the latest pulse number is abruptly varied in excess of a certain preset value upon comparison with the pulse numbers in the registers, then the pulse numbers in the registers are corrected with a value dependent on the latest pulse number.
