<p>1,188,463. Monitor circuits for -control systems. BENDIX CORP. Feb. 8, 1968 [Feb. 16, 1969], No.6324/68. Heading G3R. A flight control system is monitored by the control circuit shown which comprises an arrangement of relay operating coils and contacts to provide an indication of the state of operation of the control circuit and the control system. A lamp 25 is lit when the circuit and system are operating correctly. The lamp 25 is out when the system is not being monitored and goes out when the control system operates incorrectly or when circuit components are faulty. Other circuit malfunctions cause the de-energization of a control device 11 whose energization engages the flight control system, the latter operation entailing the closure of a switch 8 to apply a signal from a source 10 to a relay 12 through contacts 4A, 4B and fuse 24, the energization of relay 12 closing contacts 12A, 12B to energize the device 11 and a self-holding relay 9 for the contacts 8. The system then operates in the unmonitored mode. Transfer to the monitored mode. Switches 6, 6A are manually or automatically closed to apply to a relay 2 the output signal from a comparator 30 whose inputs 32, 34 respectively correspond to a flight condition signal and to a monitor input for this signal. When the control system is operating correctly, the output of comparator 30 is within a predetermined limit and a relay 2 is energized to close contacts 2A, 2B and so energize a relay 4 controlling contacts 4A, 4B, 4C and a self-holding relay 7 controlling the contacts 6, 6A. Thus contacts 2B, 4C are closed, contacts 4A, 4B are open and the lamp 25 is lit. Any other condition of these contacts causes the lamp 25 to go out or the control device 11 to be de-energized by blowing of the fuse 24. Various malfunctions of the control system and monitor circuit are discussed.</p> |
