Abstract

Abstract A magnetic field producing structure has a pair of U-shaped elongated core members with the end faces of the legs of one of the core members arranged in a confronting relationship across a predetermined gap with the end faces of the legs of the other one of the core members. A first winding on each of the core members is wrapped around the trough of each of the core members. A source of alternating current is arranged to serially energize the first windings on both of the core members. A second winding is located on each of the core members and is wrapped around the corresponding core member at right angles to the first winding. A direct current source is arranged to serially energize the second windings on the core members.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
A magnetic field producing apparatus comprising a first U-shaped core member; a second U-shaped core member, said first core member having leg end faces spaced a predetermined distance from confronting leg end faces of said second core member; a first winding wound on the trough of said first core member; a second winding wound on the trough of said second core member; a first energizing means arranged to serially energize said first and second windings; a third winding wound around said first core member at right angles to said first winding; a fourth winding wound around said second core member at right angles to said second winding, and a second energizing means arranged to serially energize said third and fourth windings.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 121 words
A magnetic field producing apparatus comprising a first U-shaped core member; a second U-shaped core member, said first core member having leg end faces spaced a predetermined distance from confronting leg end faces of said second core member; a first winding wound on the trough of said first core member; a second winding wound on the trough of said second core member; a first energizing means arranged to serially energize said first and second windings; a third winding wound around said first core member at right angles to said first winding; a fourth winding wound around said second core member at right angles to said second winding, and a second energizing means arranged to serially energize said third and fourth windings.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 121 words
A magnetic field producing apparatus comprising a first Ushaped core member; a second U-shaped core member, said first core member having leg end faces spaced a predetermined distance from confronting leg end faces of said second core member; a first winding wound on the trough of said first core member; a second winding wound on the trough of said second core member; a first energizing means arranged to serially energize said first and second windings; a third winding wound around said first core member at right angles to said first winding; a fourth winding wound around said second core member at right angles to said second winding, and a second energizing means arranged to serially energize said third and fourth windings.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 121 words
A magnetic field producing apparatus comprising a first Ushaped core member; a second U-shaped core member, said first core member having leg end faces spaced a predetermined distance from confronting leg end faces of said second core member; a first winding wound on the trough of said first core member; a second winding wound on the trough of said second core member; a first energizing means arranged to serially energize said first and second windings; a third winding wound around said first core member at right angles to said first winding; a fourth winding wound around said second core member at right angles to said second winding, and a second energizing means arranged to serially energize said third and fourth windings.
