Abstract
Abstract This detector comprises at least one bar of a ferromagnetic material about which are wound several turns of a conductive coaxial cable cut in its center into first and second portions, said portions being connected in such a way that the sheath or tube of the first portion is connected to the core of the second portion and the sheath or tube of the second portion is connected to the core of the first portion, each of the two free cable ends being used for measuring the output voltage of the detector.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
124 words
A magnetic field detector comprising: at least one bar of a ferromagnetic material about which are wound in a single layer several loops of a conductive coaxial cable which is cut at a point midway between the two ends of said cable into half-portions including a first portion and a second portion wherein said first and second portions are connected in such a way that the sheath of the first portion is connected to the core of the second portion and the sheath of the second portion is connected to the core of the first portion, each of said ends of the cable being used for measuring an output voltage of the detector, said voltage being indicative of a magnetic field to be detected.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
124 words
A magnetic field detector comprising: at least one bar of a ferromagnetic material about which are wound in a single layer several loops of a conductive coaxial cable which is cut at a point midway between the two ends of said cable into half-portions including a first portion and a second portion wherein said first and second portions are connected in such a way that the sheath of the first portion is connected to the core of the second portion and the sheath of the second portion is connected to the core of the first portion, each of said ends of the cable being used for measuring an output voltage of the detector, said voltage being indicative of a magnetic field to be detected.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 1, wherein the number of loops of said two half portions is identical and is dependent on the frequency range investigated.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 1, wherein the coaxial cable has a characteristic impedance between 10 and 50Ω.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
67 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 1, wherein an insulating covering, in which are located the bar and the coaxial cable, is provided the two ends of the coaxial cable being in each case connected to a separate coaxial terminal, the sheath of said two ends also being interconnected by a common metal plate, the plate and the two coaxial terminals being accessible outside the covering.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
17 words
A magnetic field detector accoring to claim 1, wherein the coaxial cable has a solid metal sheath.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
13 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 1, wherein several bars are provided.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
17 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 6, wherein the bars are made from different ferromagnetic materials.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
15 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 1, wherein the bar is made from ferrite.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
16 words
A magnetic field detector according to claim 1, wherein the cable has 2 to 50 loops.
