Abstract: A system includes an injector including a scheduling valve assembly and a nozzle in fluid communication with the valve assembly. The scheduling valve assembly is configured for regulation of flow from an inlet of the injector to the nozzle. The injector includes one fluid circuit between the inlet of the injector and a respective outlet of the nozzle. A solenoid valve is connected in fluid communication with the scheduling valve assembly. The solenoid valve is configured to adjust position of a hydromechanical valve spool of the valve assembly.

Abstract: A system includes an injector having a scheduling valve assembly and a nozzle in fluid communication with the valve assembly. The scheduling valve assembly is configured for regulation of flow from an inlet of the injector to the nozzle. The injector includes two fluid circuits between the inlet of the injector and two respective outlets of the nozzle for staged flow output from the nozzle. A first one of the two fluid circuits is a primary circuit, and a second one of the two fluid circuits is a secondary circuit. A solenoid valve is connected in fluid communication with the scheduling valve assembly, wherein the solenoid valve is configured to adjust position of a hydromechanical valve spool of the valve assembly.

Abstract: A fuel injector for a turbine engine includes a fuel scheduling valve configured for regulation of fuel flow from a fuel inlet in response to fuel pressure received at the fuel inlet. Primary and secondary fuel circuits receive fuel from the scheduling valve, and an electrically-controlled valve is provided in fluid communication with the primary circuit, adapted and configured to actively control fuel through the primary circuit in response to a control signal.

Abstract: Data messages are transmitted between host data processors and a communications processor. Data messages from a communications processor are transformed for the host processor to which the message is assigned. Data messages from a host processor are transformed for the communications processor. Protocol is established between (a) untransformed data messages from the communications processor and transformed data messages for the communications processor, and (b) untransformed data messages from each host processor and transformed data messages for each host processor. A device interface connects a plurality of host processors to a plurality of buses, each bus being connected to one communications processor. The device interface handles the protocol, transformation and control function in parallel so that messages between a given host processor and terminal connected to a communications processor are processed through a device interface.

Abstract: Metal detector for locating and classifying metal objects of different types in the ground or other surroundings. Automatic compensation is provided for signals produced by magnetic materials in the soil and by misalignment of the coils in the sensing head.

Abstract: Eddy current type metal detector for locating and distinguishing between metal objects of different types in the ground or other surroundings. Differentiation is employed to eliminate signals from the ground soil or other material in which the object is located, and objects of a particular type are detected from the phases of signals which they produce.

Abstract: A connection across telephone lines includes a resistor having a shunted capacitor circuit holding a normally closed relay open and permitting it to close on closing the telephone circuit, by lifting the handset, to activate a recorder. Replacing the handset opens the circuit shutting off the recorder. A current limiting resistance in the recorder switch circuit prevents damage to the relay while the capacitor provides high current for activating the the relay solenoid. A bridge circuit eliminates polarity of the magnetically biased relay.

Abstract: A two-way telephone amplifier uses a microphone-speaker switching system with the microphone normally on. Incoming or off-line voice signal causes switching to open the transmit line and close the receive line. Features of the invention include a bridge circuit with transmit and receive lines all connected to one side of the secondary of a telephone line coupling transformer.
