  Thermisches Mikrophon. 



   Den Gegenstand der Erfindung bildet ein thermisches Mikrophon, das gegenüber den bisher gebräuchlichen Kontaktmikrophonen die Vorteile bietet, dass es zur Aufnahme verhältnismässig grosser Energiemengen geeignet und von fast unbegrenzter Lebensdauer ist. Nach der 
 EMI1.1 
 benutzt, die nach Art eines Thermotelephons in einer Schalldose ohne Abschluss gegen die Aussenluft untergebracht sind. 



   Es ist bereits vorgeschlagen worden, bei Mikrophonen die gebräuchlichen Kohlenkörper dadurch zu vermeiden, dass diese durch den Schall zu beeinflussenden Körper durch einen von einem Heizstrom durchflossenen Widerstand aus   Wolframdtähten,-Bandern   oder - Rohren ersetzt worden, der in eine luftdicht abgeschlossene, mit einem indifferenten Gas gefüllte Glaskugel eingeschlossen ist. Der Heizstrom wurde dabei so bemessen, dass der Wolframkörper sich in starker Glut befand und ein   giosser   Teil der   zugdührten elelctrischen   Energie in Strahlung umgesetzt wurde.

   Beim Auftreffen von Schallwellen auf die Glaskugel erleidet dann die den glühenden Wolframkörper   umgebende Gasfül'ung Dichtigkeits-   änderungen, die den Schallschwingungen entsprechen und die Strahlung des Wolframkörpers periodisch verändern. Der Wolframkörper arbeitet dabei infolge der durch die schnell aufeinanderfolgenden Temperaturschwankungen beidingten Widerstandsänderungen wie ein Mikrophon. 



   Diese Einrichtung zeigt den Nachteil, dass die Schallschwingungen durch die den Wolframkörper umgebende Glaswand erheblich abgeschwächt werden. Ferner wirkt die Glaswand selbst hieboi mehr oder weniger   mombranartig   und ruft hiedurch störende   Nebengeräusche   hervor. Schliesslich macht die   Einschliessung   des Wolframkörpers in eine mit indifferentem Gas gefüllte Glaskugel den Apparat verhältnismässig kostspielig. 



   In der Zeichnung ist eine Ausuhrungsform des neuen thermischen   Mikrophons   in lotrechtem Schnitt veranschaulicht. 



   Das dargestellte Mikrophon besteht aus zwei miteinander zu einer Schalldose verbundenen, schalenartigen Körpern 1 und 2, die durch Schrauben 3 und   4   an dem bolzenartigen Verbindungsglied 5 befestigt sind. Der Bolzen 5 dient zusammen mit den Isolier-   buchsen N   und 9 zur Befestigung des Trägers 6 der   Hitzleiterdrähte   7, die in beliebiger Gestalt und Schaltung angeordnet sein können. Zwischen dem Träger 6 und der Innenwand der schalenartigen   Körper 1,   2 sind die   Isolicrbüchsen   8 und 9 angeordnet, die den 
 EMI1.2 
 Paralle !- oder genischter Schaltung angeordneten Hitzleiterdrähte sind mit den Stromzuleitungen 12, 13 verbunden.

   Beispielsweise kann das Hitzleiterorgan aus 24   Drnhtbögen   bestehen und unbedenklich durch eine Stromstärke von 150 Milliampere belastet werden.

  Thermal microphone.



   The subject of the invention is a thermal microphone which, compared to the contact microphones commonly used up to now, offers the advantages that it is suitable for receiving relatively large amounts of energy and has an almost unlimited service life. After
 EMI1.1
 used, which are housed in the manner of a thermal telephone in a sound box without a seal against the outside air.



   It has already been proposed to avoid the usual carbon bodies in microphones by replacing these bodies, which are to be influenced by the sound, with a resistance made of tungsten wires, strips or tubes through which a heating current flows, which is sealed in an airtight manner with an indifferent one Gas filled glass ball is enclosed. The heating current was measured in such a way that the tungsten body was in a strong glow and a large part of the electrical energy supplied was converted into radiation.

   When sound waves hit the glass sphere, the gas filling surrounding the glowing tungsten body then suffers changes in tightness which correspond to the sound vibrations and periodically change the radiation from the tungsten body. The tungsten body works like a microphone due to the changes in resistance caused by the rapid succession of temperature fluctuations.



   This device has the disadvantage that the sound vibrations are considerably weakened by the glass wall surrounding the tungsten body. Furthermore, the glass wall itself has a more or less Mombran-like effect and thus causes annoying background noises. Finally, the inclusion of the tungsten body in a glass ball filled with inert gas makes the apparatus relatively expensive.



   In the drawing, an embodiment of the new thermal microphone is illustrated in a vertical section.



   The microphone shown consists of two shell-like bodies 1 and 2 which are connected to one another to form a sound box and which are fastened to the bolt-like connecting member 5 by screws 3 and 4. The bolt 5, together with the insulating bushes N and 9, serves to fasten the carrier 6 of the heat conductor wires 7, which can be arranged in any shape and circuit. Between the carrier 6 and the inner wall of the shell-like body 1, 2, the Isolicrbüchsen 8 and 9 are arranged, which the
 EMI1.2
 Heat conductor wires arranged in parallel or in a mixed circuit are connected to the power supply lines 12, 13.

   For example, the heat conductor element can consist of 24 twisted arcs and can safely be loaded with a current of 150 milliamperes.
