This invention relates to cathode ray deflection apparatus and more particularly to a deflection means which may be used to expand or accelerate any portion of the scale.
In cathode ray deflection devices the timing deflections have been made both linear and nonlinear. One well known deflection is obtained by applying potentials of sine wave form to the deilecting elements. The saw-tooth scanning is another well known deiiection means for cathode ray tubes.
One of the applications of cathode ray tubes is for pulse echo detection. 'Ihe pulse is radiated toward a reflecting object; the cathode ray is deected by a scanning potential of suitable wave form; and the reflected wave is applied to deiiect the cathode ray along a coordinate angularly disposed with respect to the scanning coordinate. If the scanning is synchronized with the outgoing pulses and if the scanning is at a known rate, the distance from the transmitter to the reflecting object and back to the receiver may be determined. In this type of scanning more than one reilection may be indicated, and in many instances it is desirable todiierentiate the several reectons. If the several reflections are uniformly spaced along the entire scanning scale, there is no difficulty in determining the distances on a linear scale. If the reections are closely grouped in any portion of a linear or hyperbolic scale, it becomes diflicult to distinguish the separate reflections.
One obvious solution of this difficulty is to employ several diiierent scales and to use the scale best suited, This solution complicates the apparatus and does not lreadily solve all the difficulties. One of the objects of this invention is to provide means whereby any portion of a cathode ray scanning or timing scale may be expanded. Another object is to provide means for obtaining very sensitive diilierential indications of the distance of reflecting objects. An additional object is in the provision of means for exaggerating any portion of a linear or non-linear cathode ray sweep.
The invention will be described by reference to the accompanying drawing in which Figure 1 is a schematic circuit diagram of one embodiment' of the invention; and Figures 2 to 4 are graphs descriptive of the operation of the device.
Referring to Fig. 1, the output of\a saw-tooth wave generator is connected to a pair of potentiometers 3, 5. ilrst potentiometer 3 is connected through a capacitor 1 to the grid of an amplier 9. The grid The adjustable contact of the is returned to ground by a resistor I I. The cathode lead may include a self-bias resistor I3. The
anode is connected through a resistor I5 to a potentiometer I1 which is connected to +B as hereinafter described. The anode is coupled by a capacitor I9 to an output resistor 2| which is shunted across the deecting elements 23 of a cathode ray tube 25.
The adjustable contact of the second potentiometer 5 is connected through a capacitor 21 to the grid of a preferably high mu type of thermionic tube 29. The grid is connected through a resistor 3| to an adjustable contact on the biasing potentiometer 33 in the cathode of the tube 29. Theanode of the tube 29 is connected to the upper terminal of the potentiometer I1. lower terminal of the potentiometer |1 is coupled by a capacitor 35 to the output resistor 2 I.
The operation of the circuit is as follows: 'Ihe potentials of saw-tooth wave form applied to the ilrst potentiometer 3 are amplied by the ampliiler 9 which is biased for normal operation. The amplified output currents may be linear as shown by the straight line 31 of Fig. 2 or the tube may be adjusted to the output characteristic represented by the curve 39. is biased to cut-oi. The anode current remains blocked for the lower potentials of the input voltage of saw-tooth wave form as shown by the left hand portion of Fig. 3. As the input potential is increased the initial bias is exceeded and the output current 4| rises steeply. A further increase of input is finally accompanied by grid current which, flowing through the series resistor 3|, limits the anode current 43.
The voltage drops across resistors I5 and |1 are combined in resistor 2| and are applied to the deflecting elements 23 of the cathode ray tube. The resulting combination for linear scanning is represented by the graph 45 of Fig. 4. If the expanded scanning voltage is combined with the non-'linear scanning voltage, the resultant is represented by the dash line 41. It should be understood that the expanded or modif-led portion may be applied at any point along the horizontal coordinate, which may represent voltage, time or distance in suitable units.
Thus the invention has been described as an improved cathode ray deecting device in which the normal linear or non-linear scanning may be expanded in any portion of the scale. The control is accomplished by an auxiliary tube which is lyreaches saturation. This characteristic cur- The The high mu tube 29 n 'rent is added to the normal scanning current. While triode tubes -have been shown for purposes of illustration, it should be understood that tetrodes or other types of amplifiers may be used.
