Abstract
Abstract A magnetron comprises an anode cylinder, vanes extending radially and inwardly from the anode cylinder, an output-side-sealing metal cylinder sealed to the end of the anode cylinder, an antenna lead connected to one of said vanes and a plurality of flanged metal cylinders enclosing the antenna lead and disposed inside the output-side-sealing metal cylinder along the direction of a magnetron tube axis.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
101 words
A magnetron comprising an anode cylinder, vanes extending radially and inwardly from said anode cylinder, an output-side-sealing metal cylinder sealed to the end of said anode cylinder, an antenna lead connected to one of said vanes, and a plurality of flanged metal cylinders enclosing said antenna lead and disposed in axially spaced relationship inside said output-side sealing metal cylinder so as to define a plurality of non coaxial and axially spaced spaces along the direction of a magnetron tube axis whereby the spaces enclosed by said output-side-sealing cylinder and said respective flanged cylinders are resonant with a wavelength to be suppressed.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
101 words
A magnetron comprising an anode cylinder, vanes extending radially and inwardly from said anode cylinder, an output-side-sealing metal cylinder sealed to the end of said anode cylinder, an antenna lead connected to one of said vanes, and a plurality of flanged metal cylinders enclosing said antenna lead and disposed in axially spaced relationship inside said output-side sealing metal cylinder so as to define a plurality of non coaxial and axially spaced spaces along the direction of a magnetron tube axis whereby the spaces enclosed by said output-side-sealing cylinder and said respective flanged cylinders are resonant with a wavelength to be suppressed.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
117 words
A magnetron comprising an anode cylinder, vanes extending radially and inwardly from said anode cylinder, an output-side-sealing metal cylinder sealed to the end of said anode cylinder to form an evacuated envelope in combination with said anode cylinder, an antenna lead connected to one of said vanes, said output-side sealing metal cylinder comprising a plurality of sub-cylinders stacked along the direction of the axis of the magnetron tube axis and hermetically sealed by brazing the end of a cylinder portion of said sub-cylinders on an adjacent sub-cylinder to form a plurality of spaces enclosed by said adjacent sub-cylinders, said space being disposed moncoaxially and in axially spaced and non-overlapping relationship and resonant with wavelengths to be suppressed.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
117 words
