Description
Jan. 10, 1933. FORBES 1,893,618
COUPLING DEVI CE Filed June 5. 1951 Patented Jan. 10, 1933 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HENRY G. FORBES, OI DAYTON, OHIO, ASSIGNOR. TO GENERAL MOTORS RADIO COR- IORATION, OF DAYTON, OHIO, A CORPORATION OF OHIO COUPLING DEVICE Application filed June 5,
This invention relates to a coupling unit, and in more particular to a capacity coupling connecting a pair of shielded inductances.
An object of this invention is to provide a capacity coupling for coupling a pair of shielded inductances that does not require the usual form of fixed condenser.
Another object of this invention is to provide unitary shields for the coils that are attached to each other so as to minimize on the amount of room, and simplify the structure without sacrificing the performance.
Another object is to provide a fastenlng device for clamping the parts of the coupling assembly in a relatively fixed relation. This has been accomplished by providing a clamping member that cooperates with the cores of the coils, thereby holding the cores in a relatively fixed position.
Further objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing wherein a preferred embodiment of one form of the present invention is clearly shown.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 discloses a schematic wiring d1agram for coupling the plate circuit of one tube to the grid circuit of another;
Figure 2 shows a plan view of the coupling system;
Figure 3 discloses a sectional view taken substantially on the line 33 of Figure 2; and
Figure 4 shows a sectional view taken substantially on the line 4-4 of Figure 3.
The coil 10 mounted upon a suitable insulating support 12 is carried by a spool, or support 14, provided with a flange 16 that is gripped by the tongues 18, struck out of the insulating shield 20, telescopically engaging a cup-shaped member 22 attached to the base of the radio receiver 24 by a screw 26. One terminal 28 of the coil 10 may be connected to the plate 30 of the tube 34 and the other terminal 36 to asuitable source of B potential not shown).
The coil 40 supported by the insulating support 12 is carried by a spool, or support 44, provided with a reduced portion 46 passing through an aperture 48 in the shield 20 and telescopically engaging a recess 50 provided therefor in the spool 14. The coil 40 is enclosed in a shield 52 provided with an aperture 54 and held in position by flarin the edge 56 of the shielding member 20. suitable cup-shaped cover 60 fits over the shield 52 so as to completely shield the coil 40. The terminals 62 and 64 may be connected in the grid circuit including the grid 66 of the tube 68.
The spools 14 and 44 have been provided with apertures 70 and 72 through which passes a metallic fastening member 74, provided with. a head 76 that engages a washer 7 8 and a nut 80 threadedly engaging the end 82, spaced with respect to the spool 14 by a washer 84. It can be readily seen that upon the tightening of the nut 80 the spools 44 and 14, and the shields 20 and 52 will be held or clamped in a relatively fixed position.
For high frequency currents such as radio frequency currents the metallic fastening member 74 is preferably made from a nonmagnetic material so as to have substantially the same permeability as that of air. As is well known to those skilled in that art, a
capacity coupling exists between the coil 10 and the metallic fastening member 74, and the metallic member 74 and the coil 40, so that in effect the metallic member 74 acts as an intermediate plate of a condenser having the coil 10 as one plate and the coil 40 as another plate. By this coupling assembly the anode circuit, including the plate 30, may be coupled to the grid circuit including the grid 66.
The capacity coupling thus formed between the coil 10 and the coil 40 is dependent upon the size of the coils, and the size, shape and material of the fastening member 74, and the washers 7 8 and 84.
