<p>1362831 Camera exposure control circuits EASTMAN KODAK CO 26 Aug 1971 [27 Aug 1970] 40113/71 Heading G1A A photographic camera has an exposure control circuit powered by an electric generator 72 which generates an electric pulse upon actuation of a shutter actuating member 28, wherein, when the intensity of scene light is above a predetermined level, a shutter 14, 16 operates at a fixed speed and the exposure control circuit controls the setting of diaphragm means 10 to adjust the effective aperture of an objective lens 12 as a function of scene light intensity, and, when the intensity of the scene light is below the predetermined level, the diaphragm means is mechanically adjusted to maximum opening and the exposure control circuit controls the shutter speed as a function of scene light intensity. The diaphragm means consists of a disc 10 rotatable about an axis 18 and has tapered slots 34, 36 which co-operate with the objective lens 12 and a photo-sensitive element 38 respectively. The shutter consists of an impacted blade 14 which swings to-and-fro when struck by a spring urged member 66 and a closing blade 16 which moves to an aperture closing position when an electromagnet 46, 48 is energized to repel a permanent magnet 50 attached to blade 16. Shutter release 28 is pivotted at 30 and when actuated an arm 26 integral therewith allows the diaphragm plate to rotate and at the same time at projection 90 thereon frees the spring driven generator 72 so that the exposure control circuit is energized. At high levels of scene illumination, a stage will be reached when the light incident upon the photo-sensitive element 38 is sufficient to allow energization of the electromagnet 46 and to result in release of the closing shutter blade 16. A pin 42 thereon engages a tooth of the series of teeth 40 disposed on the periphery of the diaphragm plate. Subsequently shutter drive member 66 is released to cause shutter blade 14 to open and close exposure aperture 12 at a predetermined exposure time. At low levels of scene illumination, the diaphragm plate rotates to its full extent until a projection 39 engages a fixed pin 41. A flag 112 is at this position visible in viewfinder 114. Also a detent 56 associated with switch contacts a, b, c is out of contact with cam 58 and the switch S 1 allow the photo-sensitive element to form part of an RC integrating circuit. The opening shutter blade 14 initiates a timing operation by operation of changeover switch S 2 and is held in an aperture open position by engagement between a blade detent 68 and a latch member 116. At the end of the exposure period, the closing blade 16 recovers the exposure aperture.</p> |
