Divided and this application June 17, 1937, Serial No. 3, 1939 12 Claims.
The invention relates to variable inductance devices, which, among their other advantageous uses, may be employed as parts of radio-frequency generator circuits.
able inductance devices herein disclosed. include inductance coils and ferromagnetic cores adjustable relatively thereto, the combination being such that at all high frequencies, maximum permeability oi the core consistent with the desired losses involved in any case, may be attained.
One object of the invention is to provide a new and useful tuning device suitable for use in hiZh-II'BQHQDOY circuits, of the variable-inductance rather than the variable-capacitance type,
and which will therefore avoid the usual disadvantages encountered with the latter type. Among the disadvantages of systems employing variable-capacitance tuning, which it is one of the objects of the present invention to overcome,
gois the non-uniformity of the performance of the circuits throughout the tuning range. The present invention provides a tuning device which when employed at radio frequencies, permits tuning a circuit over a desired range of frequencies, while at the same time maintaining the performance of the circuit substantially constant.
Additional objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from what is to follow. Among these may be mentioned the provision of tuning devices which are not subject to detuning or other difliculties due to mechanical vibrations, and which are inherently incapable of the microphonic action by which sustained audio-frequency oscillations frequently arise in capacitance-tuned systems. Also to be noted are the advantages of extreme compactness, ease of assembly, and the ease and effectiveness of shielding to avoid the effects of extraneous electromagnetic and/or electrostatic fields.
The application is a division of my application, original Serial No. 535,606, filed May 7, 1931, now Patent No. 2,113,603, issued April 12, 1938, in which are disclosed various advantageous embodiments of my invention.
In the present application, .the specific object is to provide high-frequency generating apparatus tuned by a ferromagnetic core having unique advantages over the capacitance-tuned high-frequency generating apparatus of the prior art.
The core embodied in the present device may -be one of the compressed powdered-iron type which is fully described in my United States Patent No. 1,982,689 issued December 4, 1934, and which may have varying ferromagnetic density along its axis as disclosed therein.
The improved vari-.
148,789. ltenewed June The invention will be best understood, if reference be-made to the accompanying drawing in which:
Figure 1 is a sectional view showing a tuning device which may be employed for the purpose of 6 the invention;
Figures 2 to 5 inclusive are schematic diagrams of high-frequency generators, constructed in accordance with the invention; and
Figure 6 is a graph indicating results attained by the use of the circuits of Figures 2 to 5 inclu- S1Ve.
Specifically, the presentinvention involves a radio-frequency inductance device having a core, suchas is described in my aforesaid patent, and so arranged in any one of various radio-frequency generator circuits, thattuning of that circuit may be eifected by adjustments of the core with the attainment of the several advantages hereinafter indicated.
Referring to Figure 1, l is a compressed ferromagnetic core preferably having an annular cavity 2 that is adapted to receive a tube 3 carrying an inductance coil 4, and, if desired, an additional winding 4a.
As shown, the core I is movable, while the tube 3 carrying either the coil 4 or the coils 4 and 4a, is fixed, to thereby effectuate variations of inductance in the device 5, which, as herein revealed, maybe employed for tuning radio-frequency generator circuits of difierenttypes.
Telescoping open-ended shields 6, 1 of any suitable material may .be employed in order at all times to exclude external inductive influences. Such shields 6, disposed around the cores, are optional and are desirable only when thorough shielding is required.
In order to produce an effective permeability of 7.5 by a given core, the coil used with the core should have a ratio of length to diameter of substantially 1.5 to 1. If greater permeability is required, the core may be lengthened, to correspond with a coil of increased ratio of length to diameter, for example, 2 to 1, in which case the coil, being longer, will have less inductance rela tive to resistance. On the other hand, if ferromagnetic material having greater permeability is used for the core,.the length of the coil relative'to its diameter may be reduced. By the term effective permeability (,ui) I mean the ratio of the inductance of a coil having a ferromagnetic core to the inductance of the same coil with an air core, without regard to whether the core is closed, or whether or not the core encloses all of the flux lines through the coil.
65 I --being included in the timed plate circuit.
It may be advantageous to keep the electrical properties of the circuit at certain optimum condltions, which are satisfied when the ratio of inductance to resistance, or L/R, of that circuit is kept constant at all frequencies to which the circuit may-be tuned.
At a frequency f0, where the core is withdrawn, the corresponding ratio Lo/Ro of the coil alone is responsible for the successful operation of the circuit." when the core is partly moved in, certain losses are introduced and the inductance is increased to Loni. The core is so constructed that, for each new value of inductance Low, 9. new value of effective resistance Rain is obtained in such manner that the value of Lo n/Flinn at any new frequency ,f1, is substantially equal to v frequencies.
the original value Lo/Ro of the coil atlfrequency f0. By the resistance-increase factor in, Imean the ratio of the'effective resistance of a coil having a ferromagnetic core measured at frequency any frequency to which the circuit is tuned.

Figure 2 shows an oscillator including a thermionic relay A, its grid and plate being connected to the opposite ends of coil L, the inductance of which is varied by relative movement of a ferromagnetic core to produce oscillations of various Capacitors C1 and C2, preferably of. equal values, serve as voltage-dividing means with respect to the cathode of the thermionic relay A. Regulating resistor R1 may be employed to further control the current in the circuit L, 01', Ca,- its value being initially so chosen asto equalize the current outputiat different frequencies.
