Abstract
Abstract In a magnetron of the permanent-magnet-externally disposed-type wherein a pair of permanent magnets are disposed outside an anode cylinder, a yoke magnetically coupling the pair of permanent magnets to each other is extended along the side wall of an anode cylinder of the magnetron, and this anode cylinder is securely fixed to the yoke. The permanent magnets are each supported between the yoke and a seal plate for sealing the opening of the anode cylinder of the magnetron.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
143 words
A magnetron comprising a main magnetron body including an anode cylinder formed interiorly with resonance cavities, a cathode member disposed along the central axis of said anode cylinder, and anode cylinder seal means made of non-magnetic material, for hermetically sealing openings at both ends of said anode cylinder, microwave output means connected to said resonance cavities in said anode cylinder, for transmitting microwaves generated from said resonance cavities outside said main magnetron body, a pair of permanent magnets disposed outside the main magnetron body in a manner opposing said anode cylinder seal means to produce a magnetic field in the axial direction of said anode cylinder, a yoke for magnetically mutually coupling said pair of permanent magnets outside said main magnetron body, and main magnetron body holding means mechanically reliably fixed to said main magnetron body, to support said pair of permanent magnets.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
143 words
A magnetron comprising a main magnetron body including an anode cylinder formed interiorly with resonance cavities, a cathode member disposed along the central axis of said anode cylinder, and anode cylinder seal means made of non-magnetic material, for hermetically sealing openings at both ends of said anode cylinder, microwave output means connected to said resonance cavities in said anode cylinder, for transmitting microwaves generated from said resonance cavities outside said main magnetron body, a pair of permanent magnets disposed outside the main magnetron body in a manner opposing said anode cylinder seal means to produce a magnetic field in the axial direction of said anode cylinder, a yoke for magnetically mutually coupling said pair of permanent magnets outside said main magnetron body, and main magnetron body holding means mechanically reliably fixed to said main magnetron body, to support said pair of permanent magnets.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
55 words
The magnetron according to claim 1, wherein said yoke for magnetically mutually coupling said pair of permanent magnets is fixed to an outer side face of said main magnetron body and functions also as said main magnetron body holding means for holding in place said main magnetron body and positioning said pair of permanent magnets.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
The magnetron according to claim 1, wherein said magnetron includes a magnetic pole piece interposed between one of said anode cylinder seal means and said permanent magnet opposing said anode cylinder seal means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
The magnetron according to claim 3, wherein said magnetic pole piece and said permanent magnet are securely sandwiched between said anode cylinder seal means and said main magnetron body holding means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
The magnetron according to claim 4, wherein said magnetic pole piece has its part contacted with said anode cylinder seal means and a gap is provided therebetween.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
The magnetron according to claim 4, wherein said magnetic pole piece is provided with a stepped portion and is contacted with said permanent magnet through said stepped portion.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
70 words
The magnetron according to claim 1, wherein at least one of said pair of permanent magnets is retained by a retainer member made of non-magnetic material, for receiving therein said permanent magnet; and by attaching said retainer member to said main magnetron body holding means, said permanent magnet is supported by said main magnetron body holding means to be disposed at a prescribed position opposing said anode cylinder seal means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
21 words
The magnetron according to claim 7, wherein a gap is provided between said permanent magnet and said anode cylinder seal means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
46 words
The magnetron according to claim 7, which further comprises a magnetic pole piece interposed between said permanent magnet and said anode cylinder seal means and fixed to said anode cylinder seal means, and a gap is provided between said magnetic pole piece and said permanent magnet.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
62 words
The magnetron according to claim 7, which further comprises a magnetic pole piece interposed between said anode cylinder seal means and said permanent magnet, and said magnetic pole piece is received in and supported by said permanent magnet receiving retainer member together with said permanent magnet, and a gap is provided between said magnetic pole piece and said anode cylinder seal means.
