Abstract

Abstract The application relates to a thyristor-controlled horizontal deflection circuit of a television receiver with mains isolation. Input inductor, communtating inductor, and isolation transformer are united in one component. In the transformer used for this component, the open-circuit inductance performs the function of the input inductor of a conventional thyristor horizontal deflection circuit, and the short-circuit inductance that of the commutating inductor.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 152 words
A horizontal deflection circuit for generating the deflection current in the deflection coil of a television picture tube wherein a first switch controls the horizontal sweep, and wherein a second switch in a so-called commutation circuit with a commutating inductor and a commutating capacitor opens the first switch and, in addition, controls the energy transfer from a dc voltage source to an input inductor, characterized in that the input inductor (Le) and the commutating inductor (Lk) are combined in a unit designed as a transformer (U) which is proportioned so that the open-circuit inductance of the transformer is essentially equal to the value of the input inductor (Le), while the short-circuit inductance of the transformer (U) is essentially equal to the value of the commutating inductor (Lk), and that the second switch (S2) is connected in series with the dc voltage source (UB) and a first winding (U1) of the transformer (U).
Claim 2
