Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a screen device provided with a frequency selective screen means selectively transmitting or preventing transmission of electromagnetic radiation in dependence on the radiation frequency, the screen device being switchable from a first to a second transmission state.
  • the invention also relates to a radome comprising a screen device according to the invention.
  • the object of the invention is obtained by means of a screen device characterized in that a plate having to electromagnetic radiation transmissible and non-transmissible sections is movable in connection to the frequency selective screen means for cooperation with the screen means so that in a first position of the screen means radiation within the transmission range of the screen means is essentially allowed to pass, while in a second position of the screen means radiation within the transmission range of the screen means is suppressed.
  • a relatively small displacement of the plate is needed between the two positions and due to that a rapid switching may be carried out.
  • the plate is displaced between the first and the second position by means of a linear displacement in a plane parallel to the surface of the screen means facing the plate.
  • a linear displacement in a plane parallel to the surface of the screen means facing the plate.
  • the surface of the screen means facing the plate is constituted by a metal layer provided with slots and is the surface of the plate facing the screen means provided with metal sections.
  • the metal sections of the plate leave the slots of the screen means open , while in the second position the metal sections of the plate hide the slots.
  • the metal layer provided with slots of the screen means together with the metal sections of the plate thereby form a metallic area resulting in an effective screening of the electromagnetic radiation in question.
  • a reflector antenna 1 is protected by a radome 2.
  • the radome 2 comprises a screen means in the shape of a frequency selective plate 3, and a displaceable plate 4.
  • the plates are inclined relative to the antenna opening in order not to reflect electromagnetic radiation incident in the lobe direction of the antenna and which is not allowed to pass trough the plates back in the direction from which the radiation is incident.
  • a rim comprised in the radome running around the periphery of the antenna. Together with the plates 3,4 the rim 5 form a closed space.
  • a driving means 6 In order to displace the displaceable plate 4 there is a driving means 6.
  • the driving means is connected with the displaceable plate 4 by means of a transmission belt 7 guided around a number of guide elements 8-11.
  • spring means 12 In order to keep the transmission belt stretched, spring means 12 may be included.
  • the screen means 3 and the displaceable plate 4 included in the screen device are shown separately in figure 2.
  • the screen means 3 is provided with a metal layer 13 in the surface layer facing the displaceable plate 4. As evident from figure 3 and the corresponding description below, there are slots in the surface layer.
  • the displaceable plate is provided with metal sections 14 in the surface facing the screen means.
  • slots or recesses 15 in the surface layer 13 of the screen means 3.
  • the metal layer 13 is missing and the embodiment of the slots in essential determines the frequency selectivity of the screen means.
  • Figures 4a and 4b show examples of how the metal sections 14 of the displaceable plate may be embodied.
  • the metal sections are constituted by parallel elongated section separated by somewhat wider and elongated sections 16 free from metal.
