TLDR
In this article, a condition responsive time proportional control means which has a relatively fast time constant when operating in its proportional band has the time constant expanded by means of a digital counter, which is repetitively switched by the condition responsive means and counts the switched operation.Abstract:
A condition responsive time proportional control means which has a relatively fast time constant when operating in its proportional band has the time constant expanded by means of a digital counter. The counter is repetitively switched by the condition responsive means and counts the switched operation. During the period that the switched operation is occurring, the time constant is expanded by simultaneously counting pulses from a pulse generating means.read more

Thermostat with adaptive operating cycle
TL;DR: In this paper, an electronic thermostat operative to be connected to a furnace or other temperature modifying apparatus, to control its state of operation, includes means for generating a desired temperature set point signal and means for measuring ambient temperature on the thermometer, when the ambient temperature falls below the set point the furnace is energized for a predetermined period of time.
Patent
Adaptive clock thermostat means for controlling over and undershoot
TL;DR: In this paper, a clock operated thermostat that provides setup temperature from an energy saving temperature is disclosed, and the amount of overshoot caused in the space in which the thermostats are installed is measured, and a constant in the operation of the thermometer is corrected.
Patent
Apparatus and method for controlling the temperature of a space
TL;DR: In this article, the actual heat load for a space under the conditions prevailing at a time is determined based upon information available to a temperature sensor, and the average heating/cooling percentage rate for relatively short duty cycles is adjusted based on this information whereby the actual heating and cooling load during this duty cycle interval may be approximately matched.
Patent
Method for controlling a discrete system
TL;DR: In this article, a system and a method for controlling a controlled parameter that affects a target parameter of a target zone is disclosed, which comprises providing a feedback control loop having a switching controller, a controlled device, and an averaging device.
Patent
Temperature control system with night setback programming as a function of temperature conditioning load
TL;DR: In this paper, a temperature control system for a building has a temperature responsive means or thermostat in the space for controlling a temperature conditioning apparatus furnishing temperature condition medium to the space.

Patent
Open loop digital frequency multiplier
TL;DR: An open loop digital frequency multiplier with a multiplied output synchonized to low frequency clock pulses is presented in this paper, where the counting cycle is controlled by a one-shot multivibrator which, in turn, is driven by a reference frequency input.
