Abstract

Abstract A circuit arrangement for the control of a forward-rearward-counter with at least one manually actuatable switch over which the reversing input of the counter can be triggered with different potential and the count input with count pulses. A first anticoincidence member has two inputs connected with one another over a resistor, one input being triggered via the switch. A second anticoincidence member has two inputs, one of which is in connection with the count input of the counter and with the output of the first anticoincidence member. The output of the second anticoincidence member is connected to the reversing input of the counter. Both anticoincidence members are applied with count pulses at their free inputs.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 169 words
A circuit arrangement for control of a forward-rearward-counter with at least one manually actuatable switch over which the reversing input of the counter can be applied with different potential and the count input with count pulses, comprising a first anticoincidence member having two first inputs and a first output, a high-ohm resistor connected across said two first inputs, a second anticoincidence member having two second inputs and a second output, one of said second inputs of said second anticoincidence member is connected to said first output of said first anticoincidence member, a counter having a reversing input connected to said second output of said second anticoincidence member and having a count input connected to said one of said second inputs of said second anticoincidence member, switch means for operatively triggering one of said first inputs of said first anticoincidence member, the other of said first inputs of said first anticoincidence member and the other of said second inputs of said second anticoincidence member being adapted to receive counting pulses.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 169 words
A circuit arrangement for control of a forward-rearward-counter with at least one manually actuatable switch over which the reversing input of the counter can be applied with different potential and the count input with count pulses, comprising a first anticoincidence member having two first inputs and a first output, a high-ohm resistor connected across said two first inputs, a second anticoincidence member having two second inputs and a second output, one of said second inputs of said second anticoincidence member is connected to said first output of said first anticoincidence member, a counter having a reversing input connected to said second output of said second anticoincidence member and having a count input connected to said one of said second inputs of said second anticoincidence member, switch means for operatively triggering one of said first inputs of said first anticoincidence member, the other of said first inputs of said first anticoincidence member and the other of said second inputs of said second anticoincidence member being adapted to receive counting pulses.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 67 words
The circuit arrangement, as set forth in claim 1, wherein said switch means is a rocker type push-button switch having a first operating position in which a positive potential is applied to said one of said first inputs of said first anticoincidence member, and a second operating position in which a zero potential is applied to said one of said first inputs of said first anticoincidence member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
The circuit arrangement, as set forth in claim 2, wherein said rocker type push-button switch also has an inoperative neutral position.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
The circuit arrangement, as set forth in claim 2, wherein said switch means constitutes a single rocker type push-button switch.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 17 words
The circuit arrangement, as set forth in claim 1, wherein said switch means constitutes a single switch.
