Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A TIME BASE GENERATOR COMPRISING, A GYROSCOPE, A REACTOR MOUNTED ON THE GIMBAL MEANS OF SAID GYROSCOPE, AN ELECTROMAGNETIC GENERATOR FOR GENERATING ELECTRICAL PULSES MOUNTED ON SAID GYROSCOPE FOR ROTATION THEREWITH, INDUCTIVE PICK-UP MEANS FOR DETECTING SAID PULSES, AN ELECTRONIC AMPLIFIER HAVING ITS INPUT COUPLED TO SAID INDUCTIVE PICK-UP FOR AMPLIFYING AND SHAPING SAID PULSES AND ITS OUTPUT COUPLED TO FEEDBACK MEANS, THE OUTPUT OF SAID FEEDBACK MEANS COUPLED TO SAID REACTOR, SAID FEEDBACK MEANS TRANSMITTING AN ERROR SIGNAL DUE TO DEVIATIONS IN ROTATIONAL VELOCITY OF SAID GYROSCOPE TO SAID REACTOR TO MAINTAIN THE ROTATIONAL VELOCITY OF SAID GYROSCOPE CONSTANT AND THEREFORE THE FREQUENCY OF SAID ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE GENERATOR.
