To all whom it may concern: 1
Be it known that I JAMES BUCKNER Srnnn, at New York, .in the countyoi New York, i tate of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tetrahedronal Mag- 1 netic Units,- of which the following is a full, clear, concise, and exact description.
dron.
This invention relates to arrangements involving a number of associated magnetic cir cuits, a specific application being found in cores for inductance coils of the type used for loadirig a number of related telephone circuits. t may also be applied to repeating coils, retardation coils, etc.
An object of this invention is to provide a compact and eflicient magnet core comprisin a plurality of symmetrically arrange magnetic circuits. a
a A magnetic circuit embodying this invention comprises six limbs, arranged to outline a tetrahedron. When this structure is used'as a loading unit, the windin s are preferably so arranged that each set 0 three limbs outlining a face of the tetrahedron carries three windings, one on each limb, con nected in series to provide the loading for one of the line conductors; in this way each limb serves as part of the magnetic circuits for two line conductors, with the result that Fig. 2 is a view of the core of the unit with the windings removed; and
Fig. 3 shows schematically an arrangement of one ofthe units in a telephone or like system.
The preferred form of the invention as shown in the drawing comprises a loading unit having a core 10 formed of six symmetrically arrangedarcuate limbs or sections 11, '12, 1e, 14;, 15 and 16 or equal length and arranged to outline a regular tetrahe- The arrangement of the loadin unit in, a telephone system is shown in ig. 3 and though but one loading unit is there illus trated, it will be understood that in actual practice as many units are used and at such intervals as circumstances require, The line conductors 17,18, 19 and 20 provide two physical circuits 21 and 22'and a derived phantom circuit 23.
The line conductor 17 01 physical circuit 21, as traced through the loading unit, comprises three series-connected windings 24: 25
and 26 on limbs 13, 14 and 16, respectively.
The line conductor 18 of physical circuit 21 includes the series-connected windings 27, 28 and 29 on limbs 11, 12 and 13, respectively. Similarly, the line conductor 19 of physical circuit 22 comprises the windings 30, 31 and 32 on limbs 11 16 and 15, and the line conductor 20, comprises the windings 33, 34 and 35 on limbs 15, 14 and 12, respectively.
It will be seen that by the above arrangement each section or limb oi? the core carries two windings, the two windings on each of the two non-adjacent limbs 13 and 15 being in the same physical circuit, and that the windings for each of the four line conductors are distributed. on three limbs outlining one of the four faces of the tetrahedron. This symmetrical disposition of the windings for the different line conductors and circuitsresults in an equality of mutual interaction between the windings and the effective utilization of the fluxes produced by currents in the different windings. It will be understood that the two diiferent windings on each limb. instead of being arranged as shown in the diagrammatical representation of Fig. 3 are preferably arranged so as to extend along the same portion of the limb, as may be accomplished for instance, by twisting the conductors for the two windings together before they are wound on the limb.
With this arrangement current passing through physical circuit 21 in the direction indicated by the full-line arrows adjacent to the conductors produces fluxes in the two magnetic circuits provided by limbs 13, 14 and 16, and limbs 11. 12 and 13. respectively. The direction of the fluxes in these magentic circuits is indicated by-s1nall full-line arrows adjacent to the respective windings on the core in Fig. 3 and on the corresponding portions of the core in Fig. 2. Thus the fluxes produced by the windings 2 1, 25 and 26 ot physical circuit 17 are in the same direction around the magnetic circuit composed of the limbs 13. 14 and 16 on which these windings are mounted, and these fluxes therefore re.
In like manner current in physical circuit 22 flowing in the direction indicated by the feathered full-line arrows adjacent to the conductors 19' and 20 will produce corresponding mutually aiding magnetic fluxes in the magnetic circuits composed by the limbs 11, 16 and 15, and limbs 15, 14: and 12, re-
1 spectively, as indicated by the feathered fullline arrows on the core in Figs. 2 and 8.
vCurrent in the phantom circuit flowing, for instance, in the direction indicated by the broken-line arrows adjacent to the conconductors, produces, as will readily be seen, fluxes in the direction indicated by the dotted plain and feathered arrows on the core sections. The magnetic effects of phantom circuit current in the two windings 24c and 29 on limb 13 are opposed and cancel each other; and the same is true of the phantom circuit current effects on limb 15. The effective magnetic fluxes due to their phantom circuit current therefore have their paths through the magnetic circuit composed ofthe four limbs 11, 12, 14 and 16, and the fluxes due to the eight windings on these limbs, being in the same direction relative tothe-circuit, aid one another.
' The specific arrangement of the windings and their connection to the line conductors, may, as will be understood, be varied to meet the requirements of economical manufacture of loading units of the type embodied in this invention and of the efiicient operation of systems of which they form a part. lVhile the above description has reference more particularly to the application of the improved magnetic unit to the loading of telephone circuits and the like, it isto be understood that this invention is not limited to sucha use but is applicable to other apparatus capable of general application.
