WENDELL L. GARLSON, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, ASSIGNOR TO RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION 01' DELL WARE.
Application filed September 21, 1922. Serial No. 589,728.
This invention relates to electrical communication and more particularly to amplifieps used in the reception of electrical signa s. The object of this invention is to embody certain new combinations in the construction of a plurality of iron core inter-valve amplifier transformers in a unit of extreme compactness.
A further object is to provide a construction which will greatly reduce the manufacturing cost of a plurality of inter-valve amplifier transformers.
My invention is especially adapted for the use in radio frequency transformers and will be described as such hereiinbut it is ,to be understood that the invention is broad enough to cover audio frequency transformer constructions as well. 1 r
Heretofore it has been customary to construct individual transformers for each stage of a. cascade thermionic vacuum tube amplifier. I propose to assemble the Va.- rious transformer windings of a cascade amplifier all in one iron core shell in such a way that part of the iron magnetic path will be common to adjacent windings.
In other cases where the amplifier is to operate over an extremely wide range of f-requencies, I intend to design the individual windings in the transformer units differently, though employing one shell, and to connect their leads to a suitable switch so as to connect alternately the proper transformer with the amplifier circuit to operate on the particular frequency range it is designed for. In addition to the circuit arrangements described below, still other circuit arrangements employing this transformer are shown in my application Serial No. 30,036 filed May 13, 1925.
Referring to the drawing, Fig. 1 is a. radio receiving circuit employing one radio frequency stage of amplification and a detector tube with three radio frequency transformers each designed to operate over a different frequency range. Fig. 2 is a plan view of three radio frequency transformers disclosing the arrangement of the iron core and windings as employed in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a radio receiving circuit employing. three radio frequency stages of amplification and a a detector.
The antenna circuit 1 in Fig. l is coupled to the secondary tuned circuit 2 which connects to the input of the amplifying tube 3. The plate lead of tube 3 connects to a switch arm 11 which makes contact with points 12, 13 and 14 alternately as the arm is rotated at the will of operator. In like manner switch arm 15 is rotated simultaneously with arm 11 to make contact with points 16, 17 and 18. The primary windings of transformers 4, 6 and 8 are connected. at one end respectively to the contact points 12, 13 and 14 and the other ends known as the low potential terminals are connected to a common terminal and to the plate battery 19. The
secondary windings of. transformers 4:, 6 and 8 are connected at their high potential ends to contact points 16, 17 and 18 and their low potential ends are connected commonly to'the filament of detector tube 9. The grid of tube 9 connects through stopping condenser and grid leak unit 20 to the switch arm 15. Telephone receiver 10 is connected in the output circuit of tube 9.
In Fig. 2 the radio frequency transformers 4, 6 and 8 in Fig. 1 or Fig. 3 are shown as they are constructed in the transformer unit. Each individual transformer has its own primary and secondary winding wound on a small laminated iron core plug 21. The laminated iron shell 22, having legs 24, completes the magnetic path around the coils thus forming what is generally lmown as shell type transformers. A certain degree of air gap 23 is usually allowed between core plug 21 and shell 22 so as to reduce the iron losses and regulate the permeability of the magnetic path. In Fig. 3 the tuned antenna circuit is designated by numeral 1 which is coupled to a secondary tuned circuit 2 which in turn connects to the input of the amplifying vacuum tube 3. The output of tube 3 is coupled through the radio frequency transformer 4 to the input of amplifying tube 5. The output of tube 5 is in like manner coupled to the input of the third amplifying tube 7 through the transformer transformers in the construction herein disclosed would create local oscillations in the accompanying Ttube circuits. In practical tests-it has been found that the stray mag netic coupling obtained with such a transformer construction on short wave lengths is practically negligiblein so far as creating local tube oscillations is concerned. If on low radio frequencies or audio frequencies it is found that due to the greater penetration of the magnetic field in the iron that coupling between the adjacent individual transformers creates troublesome efiects, then by properly connecting the adjacent windings of the transformers, i. e., all windings in same direction, the oscillating tendency of the circuit can be eliminated.
The operation of the circuit shown in Fig.
1 is similar to the operation of the circuitshown in Fig. 3 except that only one ampliturns and air gaps 23 between shell 22 andplugs 2l and tby switching to the proper transformer good amplification can be had over the range which the transformer is designed to cover. While one radio stage is shown in this circuit itis obvious that any practical number of stages with a corre: sponding number of transformer units may be employed. 1
