Apparatus for detecting variation of a condition amount in a mechanical device
First Claim
1. An apparatus for detecting variation of a condition amount in a mechanical device comprisingat least one detecting transformer having an input winding, at least one control winding, and an output winding mounted in a single magnetic path,an alternating current power source connected to said input winding,at least one normally closed circuit detecting element means to detect a variation of a condition amount by opening of said normally closed circuit detecting element means connected between one of two ends of said control winding and ground, and the other of said ends of said control winding connected to ground, andoutput means connected to said output winding to take out an output signal occurring on said output winding when said normally closed circuit detecting element means is open circuited.

Abstract
An apparatus for detecting variation of a condition in a mechanical device comprises a detecting transformer or plurality of such transformers provided with an input winding, a control winding and an output winding, an A. C. power source connected to said input winding, and a detecting element connected in series with said control winding. The normally closed detecting element is adapted to become open circuited in response to variation of the condition amount in said mechanical device. A required output signal is taken out and detected by an output circuit from the output winding due to the open circuiting of the detecting element.
