Abstract

The resonator has a dielectric cylinder (2) arranged in a housing (1) and a dielectric body (5) which can be inserted into a recess (4) of the cylinder (2), the insertion depth of the dielectric body (5), on which the resonant frequency of the resonator depends, being adjustable by means of a support (6) which is fastened on the dielectric body (5) and extends outside the housing (1). The recess (4) is arranged off-centre in the dielectric cylinder (2), to be precise at a location where the electric field strength is as high as possible. Under these conditions, a support (6) made of metal can be used, without the quality of the resonator being thereby detrimentally affected. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem abstimmbaren dielektrischen Resonator nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention is based on a tunable dielectric resonator according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Ein derartiger abstimmbarer dielektrischer Resonator ist aus den Patent Abstracts of Japan E-22, August 20, 1980, Vol. 4/No. 117 bekannt. Der in die exzentrische Aussparung des dielektrischen Resonators eintauchbare dielektrische Körper wird hier von einer Schraube gehalten, die ebenfalls aus einem dielektrischen Material besteht. Diese Anordnung sorgt nicht für eine ausreichende Abfuhr der Wärme aus dem dielektrischen Resonator nach außen an das Gehäuse.Such a tunable dielectric resonator is known from Patent Abstracts of Japan E-22, August 20, 1980, Vol. 4 / No. 117 known. The dielectric body which can be immersed in the eccentric recess of the dielectric resonator is held here by a screw, which likewise consists of a dielectric material. This arrangement does not ensure sufficient dissipation of the heat from the dielectric resonator to the outside of the housing.

Aus der GB 2 183 928 A ist ein abstimmbarer dielektrischer Resonator bekannt, der eine zentrale Bohrung aufweist, in die ein konischer Körper eintauchbar ist. Mit einer solchen Abstimmanordnung kann die Resonanzfrequenz nur über einen schmalen Frequenzbereich abgestimmt werden. Um die Wärme aus dem dielektrischen Resonator abzuführen, ist dieser zwischen zwei Metallscheiben eingeklemmt, die mit den Wänden eines den dielektrischen Resonator aufnehmenden Gehäuses kontaktiert sind.From GB 2 183 928 A a tunable dielectric resonator is known which has a central bore into which a conical body can be immersed. With such a tuning arrangement, the resonance frequency can only be tuned over a narrow frequency range. In order to remove the heat from the dielectric resonator, the latter is clamped between two metal disks which are in contact with the walls of a housing which accommodates the dielectric resonator.

Ein aus den Patent Abstracts of Japan E-608, May 13, 1988, Vol. 12/No. 158 hervorgehender abstimmbarer dielektrischer Resonator besteht aus einem dielektrischen Hohlzylinder, in dessen Innenwand in radialer Richtung dielektrische Körper versenkbar sind.One from Patent Abstracts of Japan E-608, May 13, 1988, Vol. 12 / No. 158 resulting tunable dielectric resonator consists of a dielectric hollow cylinder, in the inner wall of which dielectric bodies can be countersunk in the radial direction.

Der Erfindung liegt nun die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen abstimmbaren dielektrischen Resonator der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, der über einen möglichst breiten Frequenzbereich durchstimmbar ist und der mit einfachen Mitteln zur Abführung von Wärme aus dem Dielektrium versehen ist.The invention is based on the object of specifying a tunable dielectric resonator of the type mentioned at the outset, which can be tuned over the widest possible frequency range and which is provided with simple means for dissipating heat from the dielectric.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausbildungen der Erfindung gehen aus den Unteransprüchen hervor.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention emerge from the subclaims.

Der für die Frequenzdurchstimmung zuständige dielektrische Körper weist aufgrund der Erfindung ein geringes Volumen bzw. eine geringe Masse auf, was sich vorteilhaft für einen Abstimmechanismus auswirkt.Due to the invention, the dielectric body responsible for frequency tuning has a small volume or mass, which has an advantageous effect on a tuning mechanism.

Bei der gemäß der Erfindung gewählten Lage für den die Frequenz abstimmenden dielektrischen Körper kann, ohne eine merkliche Reduzierung der Resonatorgüte in Kauf nehmen zu müssen, eine metallische Halterung verwendet werden, welche eine gute Wärmeableitung aus dem dielektrischen Körper ermöglicht.In the position chosen according to the invention for the frequency-tuning dielectric body, a metallic holder can be used without having to accept a significant reduction in the resonator quality, which enables good heat dissipation from the dielectric body.

Anhand zweier in der Zeichnung dargestellter Ausführungsbeispiele wird nun die Erfindung näher erläutert.
Es zeigen

  • Fig.1 einen dielektrischen Resonator mit einer in Richtung der Resonatorlängsachse orientierten Abstimmung und
  • Fig.2 einen dielektrischen Resonator mit einer in Richtung quer zur Resonatorlängsachse orientierten Abstimmung.
The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to two exemplary embodiments shown in the drawing.
Show it
  • 1 shows a dielectric resonator with a tuning oriented in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the resonator and
  • 2 shows a dielectric resonator with a tuning oriented in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the resonator.

In der Fig.1 ist ein abstimmbarer dielektrischer Resonator dargestellt mit einem in einem Gehäuse 1 angeordneten Dielektrikum, z.B. in Form eines Zylinders 2. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind das Gehäuse 1 und der dielektrische Zylinder 2 kreisförmig. Die Kreisform ist aber für die Funktion des Resonators nicht bindend, so sind z.B. auch rechteckige, dreieckige, elliptische etc. dielektrische Zylinder in z.B. runde rechteckige, elliptische etc. Gehäuse einsetzbar. In dem Gehäuse 1 wird der dielektrische Zylinder 2 beispielsweise auf einer Keramikscheibe 3 gehalten.1 shows a tunable dielectric resonator with a dielectric arranged in a housing 1, for example in the form of a cylinder 2. In this exemplary embodiment, the housing 1 and the dielectric are Cylinder 2 circular. However, the circular shape is not binding for the function of the resonator, for example rectangular, triangular, elliptical etc. dielectric cylinders can also be used in, for example, round rectangular, elliptical etc. housings. The dielectric cylinder 2 is held in the housing 1, for example on a ceramic disk 3.

In dem dielektrischen Zylinder 2 ist eine Aussparung 4 vorgesehen, in die ein dielektrischer Körper 5 eintauchbar ist. Von der Eintauchtiefe hängt die Resonanzfrequenz des Resonators ab. Die Aussparung 4 ist außerhalb des Zentrums des dielektrischen Zylinders in einem Bereich angeordnet, in dem die elektrische Feldstärke z.B. des TE 01δ Wellenmodus ein Maximum besitzt. Dadurch läßt sich mit einem relativ kleinvolumigen dielektrischen Köper 5 ein großer Durchstimmbereich realisieren. Die Lage der Aussparung 4 gewährleistet außerdem, daß hier die magnetischen Feldlinien nahezu senkrecht zu einem den dielektrischen Körper 4 führenden Metallstab 6 orientiert sind. Der Metallstab 6, welcher mit dem dielektrischen Körper 4 verbunden und andererseits aus dem Gehäuse 1 herausgeführt ist, dient als Halterung, mit der die Eintauchtiefe des dielektrischen Körpers 2 einstellbar ist. Wegen der orthogonalen Orientierung der magnetischen Feldlinien zu der Halterung 6 werden darin kaum Ströme induziert, auch wenn die Halterung 6 aus Metall besteht. Somit beeinflußt die Halterung in der beschriebenen Position die Güte des Resonators nur unwesentlich. Dadurch, daß eine metallische Halterung 6 für den dielektrischen Körper 5 verwendet werden kann, läßt sich die in dem dielektrischen Körper entstandene Wärme sehr wirkungsvoll nach außen ableiten.A recess 4 is provided in the dielectric cylinder 2, into which a dielectric body 5 can be immersed. The resonance frequency of the resonator depends on the immersion depth. The recess 4 is arranged outside the center of the dielectric cylinder in an area in which the electric field strength e.g. of the TE 01δ wave mode has a maximum. This allows a large tuning range to be achieved with a relatively small-volume dielectric body 5. The position of the recess 4 also ensures that the magnetic field lines are oriented almost perpendicular to a metal rod 6 guiding the dielectric body 4. The metal rod 6, which is connected to the dielectric body 4 and, on the other hand, is led out of the housing 1, serves as a holder with which the immersion depth of the dielectric body 2 can be adjusted. Because of the orthogonal orientation of the magnetic field lines to the holder 6, hardly any currents are induced therein, even if the holder 6 is made of metal. The holder in the position described thus has only a minor influence on the quality of the resonator. Because a metallic holder 6 can be used for the dielectric body 5, the heat generated in the dielectric body can be dissipated to the outside very effectively.

Bei dem in Fig.1 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel wird der dielektrische Körper 5 in der Aussparung 4 parallel zur Längsachse des dielektrischen Zylinders 2 geführt. Dementsprechend ist auch der als Halterung dienende Metallstab 6 gerichtet. Beim der Fig.2 zu entnehmenden Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Aussparung 7 segmentförmig, so daß ein entsprechend geformter dielektrischer Körper 8 seitlich, also senkrecht zur Längsachse des Zylinders 2, in die Aussparung 7 eintaucht. Der die Frequenz abstimmende dielektrische Körper 8 befindet sich auch bei dieser Ausführung in einem Bereich des dielektrischen Zylinders, wo die elektrische Feldstärke ein Maximum hat. Dann verlaufen ebenso wie beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig.1 die magnetischen Feldlinien nahezu senkrecht zu einer mit dem dielektrischen Körper 8 verbundenen Halterung 9, welche orthogonal zur Längsachse des dielektrischen Zylinders 1 gerichtet ist. Damit sind ebenso die Voraussetzungen gegeben, eine metallische Halterung 9, welche eine gute Wärmeableitung bewirkt, zu verwenden, ohne daß die Güte des Resonators darunter leidet.In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the dielectric body 5 is guided in the recess 4 parallel to the longitudinal axis of the dielectric cylinder 2. Accordingly, the metal rod serving as a holder is also 6 directed. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the recess 7 is segment-shaped, so that a correspondingly shaped dielectric body 8 dips into the recess 7 laterally, that is to say perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cylinder 2. The dielectric body 8 which tunes the frequency is also in this embodiment in a region of the dielectric cylinder where the electric field strength has a maximum. Then, just as in the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 1, the magnetic field lines run almost perpendicular to a holder 9 connected to the dielectric body 8, which is oriented orthogonally to the longitudinal axis of the dielectric cylinder 1. This also provides the prerequisites for using a metallic holder 9 which effects good heat dissipation without the quality of the resonator suffering.
