Abstract

Abstract A multipolar magnetization device comprises at least one electric power source, at least two distinct current pulse generating devices and several portions of electric conductors respectively connected to at least four of said conductor portions for producing a given magnetic field portion. The magnetization device is arranged for creating a series of magnetic field portions of successive alternating polarities for producing in a magnetizable body a corresponding series of magnetized zones.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 110 words
A multipolar magnetization device for forming on at least one surface of a magnetizable body a series of magnetized zones having successively alternating polarities, comprising: at least two distinct current pulse generating devices connected to said source, and several elongated portions of electric conductors connected to said pulse generating devices and arranged so as to create a series of magnetic field portions of successively alternate polarity, said portions of conductors are disposed in such a manner that each magnetic field portion of said series is generated by at least four of said portions of conductors respectively connected to at least two distinct pulse generating devices producing approximately equal current pulses.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 110 words
A multipolar magnetization device for forming on at least one surface of a magnetizable body a series of magnetized zones having successively alternating polarities, comprising: at least two distinct current pulse generating devices connected to said source, and several elongated portions of electric conductors connected to said pulse generating devices and arranged so as to create a series of magnetic field portions of successively alternate polarity, said portions of conductors are disposed in such a manner that each magnetic field portion of said series is generated by at least four of said portions of conductors respectively connected to at least two distinct pulse generating devices producing approximately equal current pulses.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 77 words
A device according to claim 1, wherein the portions of conductors connected to a same pulse generating device are connected in series with each other, the connection parts of the conductors for the connection of the elongated portions with each other and for the connection to the respective pulse generating device are arranged so as to form together with said elongated portion a flat, practically closed loop for the generation of each of said magnetic field portions.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 68 words
A device according to claim 1, comprising several groups of said portions of conductors in which said portions of conductors are connected in series with each other, each group being connected in its entirety to a respective pulse generating device, and at least one part of said groups being shifted one relatively to the others in the direction in which said successive magnetic field portions follow each other.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 152 words
A device according to claim 1 for magnetizing transversally a flat body having two plane parallel surfaces and being of a small thickness as compared to the dimensions of these surfaces, wherein said portions of conductors are disposed in such a manner that each of said magnetic field portions is generated by at least eight portions of conductors disposed in pairs, the portions of each pair being placed parallel one close to the other, a first and a second pair being disposed in a first substantially flat space portion, and a third and a fourth pair being disposed in a similar way in a second substantially flat space portion and at a certain linear or angular distance from respectively the first and the second pair, each portion of conductor being connected in series with a portion of conductor of at least one adjoining pair of the same of said flat space portions.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 80 words
A device according to claims 1, 2, 4 or 3, wherein said portions of electric conductors have a substantially rectangular, flat section, and are disposed in notches in a support of high magnetic permeability, which are deeper than wide, in such a manner that the edge of a portion of conductor disposed in the vicinity of the opening of the notch in which this portion is housed, is placed substantially at the same level as the edge of the notch.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 27 words
A device according to claims 1, 2, 4 or 3, wherein several pulse generating devices are supplied in power in parallel from a same electric power source.
