ARMATURE non DISTANCE-CONTROLiNDIGATORS FOB conrrnnons AND ALTERNATING CURRENT.
Application fi1ed April 28, 1923, Serial No. 635,395, and in Germany December 16,1922.
The present invention relates to a novel form of armature in electromagnetic machinery, especially adapted for use in an rangements for transmitting signals by the different angular portions'of the ari'nature at a transmitting station which cooperates with a sim lar armature at the receiving station. Transmitting systems of this character are wellknownin the art. f
The particular improvement here involved relates to certain constructional forms of the armature by which certain advantages, hereinafter pointed out, are gained.
In signalling systems of the above character it is frequently required that thearma ture of the electromagnetic transmitter and receiver assume a great many different angular positions, in order to transmit alarge number of signals represented by these different positions. Also frequently a great numberof such individual transmitters o1 receivers are mounted side by side.
The former requirements necessitates great sensitiveness of the armature to changes in current so that for instancethe armature of the receiver will readily follow even slight size which at the same time are responsive} to even small angular displacements between the transmitter and receiver.
A constructional form of the invention is illustrated in the drawing which represents the device in longitudinal section.
Referring to the drawing 1 is an armature shaft which is journalled at 2 in the cover 17 of the indicator casing 18. The, inner end of the shaft is journalled in a step bearing 5 provided at the inner end of an adjustment screw 4 secured in the apparatus in the following manner. A stationary iron core 9 is arranged in the casing between the two poles 1 1 of the indicator system, this core being provided with a rearwardly extending sleeve 8 threaded into the rear wall 19 of the easing and secured by means of a loch: nut
Thissensitiveness has heretofore been The aforementioned screw 1 is threaded into this sleeve and the shaft bearing end as shown consists of a finely polished point .6 and a small distance away from this point a collar 'i' is provided. By thus arranging the journallingof the inner end of shaft 1 it may be very exactly adjusted againstundue longitudinal motion and it is journalled with very little friction since when the apparatus is used in rip-right position the end 6 of the shaft serves as a step bearing and when the apparatus is used in horizontal position the collar 7 which of course if also finely polished serves as abearing. H
Shaft 1 is provided with a long threaded portion onto-which is threaded a hub 10 which carriesa shell 11 which completely surrounds stationary core 9 including the greater portion of the sleeve 8 of that core. This shell is composed of metal in case direct. current is employed and of a suitable in sulating material in case'alternating current is employed. This shell 11 carries the armature winding .12 and it maybe properly adjusted in the magnetic field produced by poles 14-, and so that it clears the fixed iron core 9 uniformly on all sides, by meansof adjusting the threaded hub 10 on shaft 1. By thisnovel arrangement the weight of the armature itself is materially reduced, carryingno heavy core so that it becomes very sensitive to even light torques exerted by any field induced thru currents flowing in "the armature so that thisarmature maybe held within "comparatively small dimensions.
At the same time by theparticular cor-econst-ruction the core is notsupportedin any .way from {the armature or its shaft iat the bearings of the latter and thus the weight of the heavy core hinders in no way by friction the free movement of the armature which would otherwise occur if the core were centrally supported at its free inner end of the armature shaft as is the practice in the art at present. li urthermoro the shaft 1, only carrying the light weight of the armature, is journalled by thisnovel arrangement at its inner end very near the center of gravity of the armature and thus the weight of the armature becomes effective at the end of the shaft which is particularly delicately journalled and in which frictional losses thus become least effective. Thus the bean ing at the outer end 2 of the shaft only becomes a guiding bearing rather than a bear ing which carries a substantial portion of the armature Weight. The end of the shaft protruding beyondthe casing cover 17 is provided with a square portion as shown at 16 on which a hand may be mounted and a which is held in place by the nut 15.
By this novel arrangement the weightot the armature itsell'is materially reduced so that it becomes'v'ery sensitive to even slight torques exerted by any field induced through currents flowing in the armature, so that the armature may be held Within comparatively small dimensions. At the same time, by the particular core construction, the core does not receive any support from the armature at the bearings of the latter and thus the weight of the heavy core does in no way hinder by friction thel'ree movement of the armature, which otherwise would occur if the core were centrally supported at its free inner endon the armature shaft as is the practice in the art at present.
