Claim 1
Independent Claim
126 words
A METHOD OF PRODUCING MICROWAVE COMPONENTS BY ELECTROPLATING AND THEREAFTER SOLDERING WITHIN A PROTECTIVE GAS ATMOSPHERE, AND WHERE SAID COMPONENTS ARE FORMED OF A BASE MATERIAL OF STEEL HAVING RELATIVELY CONSTANT LENGTH WHEN SUBJECTED TO HEATING, AND ARE ASSEMBLED INTO SEVERAL SUBASSEMBLIES WHICH ARE ACCESSBLE FOR PERFORMING THE PLATING COMPRISING THE STEPS OF PLATING A LAYER OF NICKEL ON THE STEEL BASE MATERIAL OF THE ASSEMBLED COMPONENTS, SAID NICKEL LAYER HAVING A THICKNESS OF SEVERAL MICRONS FOR CORROSION PROTECTION, PLATING A LAYER OF SILVER HAVING A THICKNESS OF SEVERAL MICRONS OVER THE NICKEL LAYER TO INCREASE CONDUCTIVITY, SOLDERING TOGETHER WITHIN A PROTECTIVE GAS ATMOSPHERE THE SEVERAL SUBASSEMBLIES WITH A SOLDER OF GOOD ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY AT A TEMPERATURE WHICH FUSES THE PLATED LAYERS INTO THE BASE MATERIAL.
