Abstract
Abstract The radial vanes secured to the inside of a cylindrical anode electrode are short-circuited by inner and outer strap rings which are secured to alternate vanes. The intermediate portions of the strap rings between the points at which the strap rings are secured to the vanes are projected outwardly.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
116 words
In a magnetron of the type comprising a cathode electrode, a cylindrical anode electrode concentrically surrounding the cathode electrode, a plurality of radial vanes secured to the inner surface of said anode electrode for defining an interaction space between the inner ends of said vanes and said cathode electrode, and concentric inner and outer strap rings which are secured to alternate vanes to short-circuit the same, the improvement wherein intermediate portions of said strap rings between the points at which the strap rings are secured to said vanes are projected outwardly from circles passing through said securing points, and wherein each strap ring lies entirely in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cylindrical anode.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
116 words
In a magnetron of the type comprising a cathode electrode, a cylindrical anode electrode concentrically surrounding the cathode electrode, a plurality of radial vanes secured to the inner surface of said anode electrode for defining an interaction space between the inner ends of said vanes and said cathode electrode, and concentric inner and outer strap rings which are secured to alternate vanes to short-circuit the same, the improvement wherein intermediate portions of said strap rings between the points at which the strap rings are secured to said vanes are projected outwardly from circles passing through said securing points, and wherein each strap ring lies entirely in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cylindrical anode.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
69 words
The magnetron according to claim 1 wherein each projection has a form expressed by an equation, ##EQU2## where ρ represents the distance from the axis as a function of the angle θ about such axis, ρ 0 represents the radius of said circle passing through said securing points, a represents the maximum amount of projection, and θ 0 the angle between the secured points and where 0<θ<θ 0 .
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
The magnetron according to claims 1 or 2 wherein said strap rings are substantially uniform in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cylindrical anode.
