[Prior Art] A conventional continuously variable delay device is shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b).
The continuous variable delay device 20 shown in FIG. 4 (a) includes input / output connectors 21 and 22, fixed transmission lines 23 and 24 connected to the input / output connectors 21 and 22, and the transmission lines 23 and 24. It is composed of a variable transmission line 25, and the transmission lines 23, 24, 25 are pipe-shaped. The transmission line 25 is partly a moving plate
26 is fixed. The moving plate 26 is movable in both directions of the arrow in the figure by the drive unit 27. Therefore, by moving the transmission line 25, the entire length of the transmission lines 23, 24, 25 can be changed. The signal can be delayed by varying the phase of the signal.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] One transmission line 25 in the conventional continuously variable delay device 20
Are formed in a U-shaped integrated structure, and the axial dimensions of these lines and the parallelism thereof are precise in the transmission line 23 and one end 25a of the transmission line 25, and in the transmission line 24 and the other end 25b portion of the transmission line 25. If not taken into consideration, there is a problem that the sliding of the transmission line 25 becomes heavy.

Similarly, when one of the transmission lines 25 is U-shaped, in order to increase the length of the entire transmission line, the transmission lines 23, 24, 25 must be set long, and the length and width of the transmission lines 23, 24, 25 must be set long. It becomes a continuous variable delay device which is long in either direction, and the precision must be further increased in order to prevent the sliding from becoming heavier. In order to make the continuously variable delay device 20 compact and to increase the delay amount, multiple transmission lines may be used as shown in FIG. 4 (b), but the number of U-shaped transmission lines increases and fixed transmission is performed. The line 28 also needs to be U-shaped, which makes it very difficult to reduce sliding.

That is, in the continuously variable delay device 20, when the transmission line 25 is formed in a U-shaped integrated structure, it is difficult to make the parallelism between the one end 25a and the other end 25b and the dimensions precise. . As a result, even when the continuous variable delay device 30 is manufactured, the work of disposing the transmission lines 23, 24, 28 at the positions of the one end 25a and the other end 25b of the U-shaped transmission line 25 is performed. It is not possible to achieve work efficiency and product homogenization.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the continuously variable delay device of the first invention, both the pair of pipe type transmission lines and the axial type transmission line are linearly formed, and adjacent axial type transmission lines are provided. Since the lines are connected by a plate-shaped transmission line having elasticity, sliding friction between them can be suppressed to a low level. As a result, the continuously variable delay device can be downsized. Furthermore, the elastic plate-shaped transmission lines provide electrical continuity between the shaft-shaped transmission lines and between the pipe-shaped transmission lines, so that no extra space is required.

Further, according to the continuously variable delay device of the second invention, since the linear pipe type transmission line and the shaft type transmission line are multiplexed, the delay amount can be increased and the sliding friction can be reduced even when multiplex. Can be suppressed.
