Transformer winding arrangement for a television apparatus

Claim 2

A high voltage transformer for a video display apparatus comprising: a transformer housing; a tertiary coil form disposed within said housing and having a tertiary winding wound thereon; a magnetically permeable core disposed within the interior of said tertiary coil form; a primary winding assembly disposed between said tertiary coil form and said core, comprising: a coil form; a primary winding wound on said coil form over a predetermined winding region; and at least one additional winding wound on said coil form and overlaying said primary winding, said additional winding comprising a plurality of winding turns evenly distributed over said predetermined winding region, such that said additional winding is substantially uniformly magnetically coupled to said primary winding over said predetermined winding region, said additional winding being wound directly over said primary winding without an intermediate layer of insulation between said primary winding and said additional winding.

Claim 3

A high voltage transformer for a video display apparatus comprising: a transformer housing; a tertiary coil form disposed within said housing and having a tertiary winding wound thereon; a magnetically permeable core disposed within the interior of said tertiary coil form; a primary winding assembly disposed between said tertiary coil form and said core, comprising: a coil form; a primary winding wound on said coil form over a predetermined winding region; and at least one additional winding wound on said coil form and overlaying said primary winding, said additional winding comprising a plurality of winding turns evenly distributed over said predetermined winding region, such that said additional winding is substantially uniformly magnetically coupled to said primary winding over said predetermined winding region, said additional winding being energized to provide power to a load circuit, said load circuit heavily loading said additional winding, whereby said even distribution of said additional winding prevents degradation of the harmonic tuning of said high voltage transformer due to said heavy loading of said additional winding, said additional winding being wound directly over said primary winding without an intermediate layer of insulation between said primary winding and said additional winding.

Claim 4

A high voltage transformer for a video display apparatus comprising: a transformer housing; a tertiary coil form disposed within said housing and having a tertiary winding wound thereon; a magnetically permeable core disposed within the interior of said tertiary coil form; a primary winding assembly disposed between said tertiary coil form and said core, comprising: a coil form; a primary winding wound on said coil form over a predetermined winding region; and at least one additional winding wound on said coil form and overlaying said primary winding, said additional winding comprising a plurality of winding turns evenly distributed over said predetermined winding region, such that said additional winding is substantially uniformly magnetically coupled to said primary winding over said predetermined winding region, said additional winding being energized to provide power to a load circuit, said load circuit heavily loading said additional winding, whereby said even distribution of said additional winding prevents degradation of the harmonic tuning of said high voltage transformer due to said heavy loading of said additional winding, said additional winding being wound directly over said primary winding without an intermediate layer of insulation between said primary winding and said additional winding.

Claim 5

A high voltage transformer for a video display apparatus comprising: a transformer housing; a tertiary coil form disposed within said housing and having a tertiary winding wound thereon; a magnetically permeabl e core disposed within the interior of said tertiary coil form; a primary winding assembly disposed between said tertiary coil form and said core, comprising: a coil form; a primary winding wound on said coil form over a predetermined winding region; a first additional winding wound on said coil form and overlaying said primary winding, said additional winding comprising a plurality of winding turns evenly distributed over said predetermined winding region, such that said additional winding is substantially uniformly magnetically coupled to said primary winding over said predetermined winding region; and a second additional winding having a plurality of winding turns interleaved with the winding turns of said first additional winding, said winding turns of said first additional winding and said second additional winding being evely distributed independent of the other of said additional windings.

Claim 6

A high voltage transformer for a video display apparatus comprising: a transformer housing; a tertiary coil form disposed within said housing and having a tertiary winding wound thereon; a magnetically permeabl e core disposed within the interior of said tertiary coil form; a primary winding assembly disposed between said tertiary coil form and said core, comprising: a coil form; a primary winding wound on said coil form over a predetermined winding region; a first additional winding wound on said coil form and overlaying said primary winding, said additional winding comprising a plurality of winding turns evenly distributed over said predetermined winding region, such that said additional winding is substantially uniformly magnetically coupled to said primary winding over said predetermined winding region; and a second additional winding having a plurality of winding turns interleaved with the winding turns of said first additional winding, said winding turns of said first additional winding and said second additional winding being evely distributed independent of the other of said additional windings.
