Abstract

Abstract A circuit having several resonant frequencies is disclosed. The capacitance between coils is used instead of discrete capacitor components. One frequency is the self-resonant frequency of a large single layer coil and another frequency is the resonance of the double layered end of the circuit. The use of such multiple frequency circuits as antenna traps and loading coils is shown.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 143 words
A circuit having more than one resonant frequency comprising a pair of circuit connection wires, a main coil of insulated wire, a second coil of insulated wire having fewer than half the number of turns of said main coil, capacitively coupled to said main coil near one end of said main coil, with an electrical cross-connection joining opposite ends of said main coil and said second coil, whereby the self-resonance of the main coil is one of the resonant frequencies of the multiple frequency circuit and the resonant frequency of the second coil together with the portion of the main coil that is coupled to it is another resonant frequency of the multiple frequency circuit, electrical connections between said circuit connecting wires and one end of said main coil and one end of said second coil that are not part of said cross-connection.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 143 words
A circuit having more than one resonant frequency comprising a pair of circuit connection wires, a main coil of insulated wire, a second coil of insulated wire having fewer than half the number of turns of said main coil, capacitively coupled to said main coil near one end of said main coil, with an electrical cross-connection joining opposite ends of said main coil and said second coil, whereby the self-resonance of the main coil is one of the resonant frequencies of the multiple frequency circuit and the resonant frequency of the second coil together with the portion of the main coil that is coupled to it is another resonant frequency of the multiple frequency circuit, electrical connections between said circuit connecting wires and one end of said main coil and one end of said second coil that are not part of said cross-connection.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
A circuit according to claim 1 in which said second coil is wrapped around an end portion of said main coil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
A circuit according to claim 1 in which said electrical cross-connection between coils is a continuation of the wire of said coils, whereby the entire circuit is made from a continuous length of wire.
