Abstract

Abstract A device for attenuating electromagnetic cavity interference waves, which occur in the vacuum system of a high-frequency electron tube, in particular a transmitting tube, comprising a wave-guide portion coupled to the cavity of the electron tube, which may or may not form a part of the vacuum system of the electron tube, and which wave-guide portion may have a length corresponding approximately to a quarter wave length of the interference waves, and is provided with a high-ohmic resistive coating, the high resistance of which is transformed by the wave-guide portion into a low resistance with respect to the cavity interference waves which are to be attenuated, in the cavity of the electron tube.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
In a device for attenuating electromagnetic cavity interference waves, which occur in the vacuum system of a high frequency electron tube having an internal coaxial cavity resonator formed, in part, by the tube anode, the combination of a wave-guide resonator portion, a dielectric window disposed between and coupling the wave-guide portion to the cavity resonator and separating the wave-guide portion from the vacuum system of the tube, said wave-guide portion having a high ohmic resistive coating therein, which thus is external of the vacuum system, said wave-guide portion and resistive material, in effect, presenting a low resistance to interference modes to be attenuated, for the suppression thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
In a device for attenuating electromagnetic cavity interference waves, which occur in the vacuum system of a high frequency electron tube having an internal coaxial cavity resonator formed, in part, by the tube anode, the combination of a wave-guide resonator portion, a dielectric window disposed between and coupling the wave-guide portion to the cavity resonator and separating the wave-guide portion from the vacuum system of the tube, said wave-guide portion having a high ohmic resistive coating therein, which thus is external of the vacuum system, said wave-guide portion and resistive material, in effect, presenting a low resistance to interference modes to be attenuated, for the suppression thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein cooling means is provided adjacent the high-ohmic resistive material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 46 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein the length of the wave-guide portion corresponds approximately to a quarter wave length of the interference wave range, and with the stray capacitance between the cavity of the electron tube and the wave-guide portion forming a series resonance circuit.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 16 words
A device according to claim 3, wherein cooling means is provided adjacent the high-ohmic resistive material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 32 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein the thickness of the dielectric window corresponds approximately to a half wave length of the interference wave range in the cavity of the electron tube.
Claim 7

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 40 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein the dielectric window comprises at least two thin-wallled window sections which are spaced from one another by approximately a quarter wave length of the interference wave range, and possess a low dielectric constant.
