专利汇可以提供Conversion apparatus utilized with an electronic calculator专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且The apparatus of the present invention comprises a conversion circuit used in combination with a conventional electronic calculator for converting distance in units in one system to an equivalent distance in units in another system. Also, the conversion circuit converts the magnitude of an angle to the magnitude of its complementary angle. More specifically, the conversion circuit converts nautical miles to statute miles, statute miles to nautical miles, and the degrees of an angle to the degrees of its complementary angle. The conversion circuit supplies input signals to the arithmetic circuit of the calculator, which signals are equivalent to key input signals from the calculator''s input switch matrix. The number to be converted is first entered on the calculator''s keyboard and then an appropriate switch corresponding to the desired conversion is closed. The input signals to the arithmetic circuit of the calculator are generated by a logic circuit which is responsive to the closure of one of the conversion selection switches. A sequencer circuit controls the logic circuit to supply the desired signals corresponding to either an arithmetic function or a numeral in proper sequence to the calculator. An angle detector circuit determines the magnitude of the angle entered in degrees on the calculator''s keyboard. If it is less than 180*, the logic circuit effectively enters an addition function and then 180*. If it is 180* or more, the logic circuit effectively enters a subtraction function and then 180*. The conversion between statute miles and nautical miles is performed by either multiplying or dividing by a factor of 0.87. Each cycle is automatically terminated after the logic circuit enters a signal corresponding to an equal sign into the arithmetic circuit of the calculator.,下面是Conversion apparatus utilized with an electronic calculator专利的具体信息内容。
