Detailed Description
As shown in fig. 1, the present invention includes two waveguide coaxial converters, i.e., a first waveguide coaxial converter 1 and a second waveguide coaxial converter 2, where the two waveguide coaxial converters each include a rectangular waveguide and a coaxial structure mounted on a wide-side axis of the rectangular waveguide, the coaxial structures of the two waveguide coaxial converters are a coaxial line 3 and rotate around the coaxial line 3, and the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguides of the two waveguide coaxial converters have impedance matching. That is, the central axis of the coaxial line 3 is located on the central axis of the first broad side of the rectangular waveguide and the second broad side of the rectangular waveguide. Wherein,the coaxial line 3 includes a coaxial inner conductor 8 and two coaxial outer conductors which are sleeved outside the coaxial inner conductor 8 and are buckled with each other, a supporting medium 9 is arranged between the two coaxial outer conductors and the coaxial inner conductor 8, namely a first coaxial outer conductor 14 and a second coaxial outer conductor 15 which are positioned outside the coaxial inner conductor 8, the two coaxial outer conductors are connected with rectangular waveguide cavities of the two waveguide coaxial converters into a whole, in the embodiment, the two coaxial outer conductors and the rectangular waveguide cavities of the two waveguide coaxial converters are integrated into a whole. And a bearing 13 for realizing the rotation of the two waveguide coaxial converters around the coaxial line 3 is arranged between the outsides of the rectangular waveguide cavities of the two waveguide coaxial converters, and the bearing 13 is coaxial with the coaxial line 3. In this embodiment, the number of the bearings 13 is two, the two bearings 13 are sleeved side by side between the outside of the first rectangular waveguide cavity and the outside of the second rectangular waveguide cavity, and a bearing retainer ring 17 is arranged on one side of each bearing 13. In this embodiment, the distances between the coaxial line 3 and the waveguide short-circuit walls of the first rectangular waveguide and the second rectangular waveguide are all equal to each other
Figure GSB00000725096700051
And λ is the working wavelength of the first waveguide coaxial converter 1 and the second waveguide coaxial converter 2, and the working wavelength is the wavelength corresponding to the central frequency point during working. A gland 16 for packaging is arranged outside the bearing 13, and the gland 16 is fixed on the first rectangular waveguide cavity through a screw 19.
A ridge waveguide 4 is arranged in a rectangular waveguide I of the waveguide coaxial converter I1, one end of a coaxial inner conductor 8 extends into a rectangular waveguide cavity I5 of the rectangular waveguide I and is fixed on the ridge waveguide 4, and the ridge waveguide 4 and the rectangular waveguide I are transited through multi-stage step transformation 6. The coaxial line 3 is positioned on the central axis of the wide side of the rectangular waveguide I, and the coaxial line 3 is far away from one side of the waveguide short-circuit wall of the rectangular waveguide I
Figure GSB00000725096700052
Wherein, the rectangular waveguide is a standard waveguide, such as: BJ120, BJ220, BJ260, etc., detailed forms thereofThe number is determined by the operating frequency band. In this embodiment, one end of the coaxial inner conductor 8 is fixed to the ridge waveguide 4 by a nut 18, that is, one end of the coaxial inner conductor 8 is fixed to the waveguide wall of the rectangular waveguide cavity one 5. In addition, the waveguide coaxial converter 1 realizes impedance matching between the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguide one by adjusting the sizes of the ridge waveguide 4 and the multistage step transformation 6, wherein the closer the characteristic impedance value of the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguide one is, the wider the frequency band range of the impedance matching between the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguide one is. In this embodiment, the characteristic impedance values of the ridge waveguide 4 and the coaxial line 3 are the same or similar, and the waveguide coaxial converter 1 realizes impedance matching between the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguide by adjusting the size of the multistage step transformation 6.
In summary, it can be seen that the size of the coaxial line 3 takes two factors into consideration: the size of the bearing 13 and the strength of the coaxial inner conductor 8. In practice, the dimensions of the bearing are divided into several, but once they have been selected, their dimensions are fixed, so that the dimensions of the coaxial line 3 are selected to ensure that the structure can pass through the bearing 13; on the other hand, in view of the strength of the coaxial inner conductor 8, the diameter of the coaxial inner conductor 8 should not be too small, and in this embodiment, the coaxial inner conductor 8 is a tin bronze rod and has a diameter larger than 1.5 mm. On the premise of meeting the two limitations, the characteristic impedance value of the coaxial line 3 and the characteristic impedance value of the first rectangular waveguide are ensured to be close to each other as much as possible, so that impedance matching can be realized in a wider frequency band. That is, in practice, the closer the characteristic impedance value of the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguide one is, the wider the frequency band range in which the coaxial line 3 and the rectangular waveguide one are impedance-matched is.
