This invention relates to electric resonators or the type comprising a metallic wa11,--closed except; for one or two apertures and so shapedthat the ifield .within: the wall. can be excited tooscillations, whose frequency depends on theshape and-fsize of the-resonator.
An object of .thednventionis:toprovide an electric-1resonator whichymay be altered ;in shape and dimensions upon application of heat and thereby its natural frequency. changed or adjusted.

A- particular advantage, of the invention is that simple theat responsive elements may be fitted to the resonators iorqadjustment of the efiective resonant; frequency.
Another-advantage of the invention is that resonators constructed. in accordance therewith arethermally stable and self-compensating as to resonant frequency. 7
Other obj ects and advantages {Will-be apparent from the following description of. the invention, defined in particularity in the appended claims and :takenin connection with the accompanying drawing in which:

Broadly the invention contemplates the construction of an electric resonator of the cavity type in various forms with one or more .flexible orfi deformable parts whichwhen acted upon by a suitably'directed force. will change the dimensions and effectiveiresonance. of theresonator. These partsin accordance.withtheinvention are actuated by a heatresponsive element suchas a bimetallic member or the-parts themselves may be madeof bimetal'and-become distortable upon application of heat.

Re err n to. thedrawi i Fi u a th onator comprises. the toroidal shell 6 which by-its particular configuration encloses a toroidal cavity narrowed in the center between the paralel walls 1-. and 8. A central. aperture 9 ;.is provided for the ,excitation of the resonator. In accordance with the invention there. .proyided a flexible disc-shaped wall member II) which is placed inside the resonator andattached tothe innerwall insuch manner to be in alignment with theparallel walls land 8. An-aperture l,l; int he member 10 isalso aligned v with the aperturettof the resonator so as not to.impede the passageof char edparticles-which may be utilizedfor exciting the re'sonator.
The flexible wall member |0 is in effect amovable-extension of the parallel wall=8 andwhen moved axially with respect-J 0 the resonat or.. wi ll alter the effective space or distance betweenthe walls "land-8. As iswellknown; this.;;space is n v o h e erm n n -fa o eo th re onan frequenc o h r o a eff sub tantia1. mOvement of'the member J0;- a rod 12; enters, the--wa1l 8;through-;a-;suitable aperture J3 and is attached at, oneend to .=the member 1H1 and at the other end to a strip M of heat responsive element which is secured to the resonator by means of a support l5. The strip l4 may be made of a bimetallic material or similar heat responsive element which flexes or deforms upon application of heat. The strip I4 is shaped in such manner that the motion thereof exerts a force on the rod I2 in either direction between the walls I and 8. A motion in the direction toward the wall 1 will decrease the resonant frequency of the resonator whereas a motion of the member ID toward the wall 8 will increase the frequency.
From the above it can be seen that by proper proportioning of the strip M as to heat response, temperature compensation of the resonator may be obtained and a desired resonant frequency maintained while ambient temperature variations occur during operation. On the other hand, the resonant frequency may be deliberately changed at will by providing heating means for the strip [4 such as an electric heating element I 6 connected to wires l1 and I8 through which current may be applied.
In Figures 2 and 3 the modification resides in the flexible member III which in itself forms one of the parallel walls and is a disc with radially oriented slots H3. The segments so produced are composed of bimetallic elements which flex inwardly upon application of heat. The heating element It is placed under the disc ID, that is, under the bottom parallel wall of the toroid.
The modification shown in Figure 4 is particularly suitable where compensation is desired for ambient temperature variations. The resonator is made up of two semi-toroidal halves of conducting plates 6 and 6 peripherally joined together. A series of slots 2| are cut in a radial direction dividing the resonator into a number of segments which possess sufficient resiliency for appreciable elongation in the direction normal to the axis of the resonator. Bimetallic heating strips I 4 are tightly secured for example by welding to the upper and lower halves of the resonator at each segment. partial section of Figure 5. The strips [4 tend to flex inwardly with respect to the resonator in proportion to temperature increase and cause elongation of the segments which counterbalances the normal expansion of the resonator ,1
when the temperature is increased. The reverse condition arises when the temperature decreases.
