7 Claims.
This invention relates to an arrangement for producing filters.
To produce surface filters and ultra-filters which have the properties of an ideal filter it is known in the art to burn in a foil with the aid of ion rays perforations of constant magnitude and form and in a desired spaced relation from one another.
The object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement, whereby the greatest possible number of very fine perforations are burnt in a filter film so as to reduce the filter resistance (resistance to flow). This may be accomplished according to the invention by the fact that the cross-section through which pass the ion rays issuing from the ion emitting source is projected by means of an electrostatic multiple lens on the foil to be perforated. To this end, a short focus multiple lens is preferably employed in front of the foil. By providing the electrostatic multiple lens with a plurality of accurately aligned perforations, it is also possible to burn when producing filters a corresponding plurality of perforations in the foil. In carrying the invention into practice a multiple lens is preferably employed consisting of two electrodes impressed with a high negative potential and provided with a plurality of perforations and of an electrode interposed between these two electrodes and impressed with a lower negative potential and also provided with perforations.
Since the distance between the individual elements of the multiple lens is relatively great, perforations are obtained in the foil during the buming operation between which there may be relatively broad stripes of the foil which are not perforated. In order to provide also these stripes with perforations to the greatest possible extent, the arrangement according to the invention is so designed that the ion rays may be deflected after the first burning operation by means of deflecting magnetic fields in a corresponding manner.
A further possibility of increasing the number of perforations obtainable with one burning operation consists according to the invention in the fact that the ion emitting source is provided in a known manner with two electrodes having a plurality of perforations which form a plurality of cross-sections for the passage of electron rays. By means of the multiple lens not only a single ion ray cross-section but a plurality of ion ray crosssections are therefore projected simultaneously.
In the accompanying drawing, Fig. 1, is shown an embodiment of the invention in diagrammatic form. The reference numeral i denotes a canal ray tube in which is arran'gedfanfloidde-coated incandescent cathode 2.1 Directly infront of the incandescent cathodearetwoseries-arranged electrodes. canal." Theselielectrodes are each provided with a pluralijtyiof accuratel aligned perforationst and 6;,'respectively.' These electrodes are spaced frpmjeachother adistance of about 3 mm. .;Thelelec't'rode 3j may, for instance, be impressed'witlila voltageof +40. volts and the electrode 4 with a voltagegof 520,000 volts. Hydrogen at a pressure 'oflifi' millimeters Hg may be supplied to thfe tubeq' The ,arclgas discharge resulting therefrom may, for instance, burn at a potential of 40 volts; Injthis known arrangement an ion emitting source is providedby means of which a plurality of fine; ion rayso'rresponding to the numberlof perforationsj and 6 is produced. The 'referencehuiiierals 8, 9 denote an electrostatic short .focus multiple lens which serves to projectthe numerous cross-sections for the passage of theion rays" on a foil l4 arranged directly behind the multiple lens. To this end, the foil It is, stretched onacar'rier ii. The three electrodes of the multiple lens areeach provided with a plurality of perforations 10,1 and 12. In this manner a numberofelements of the multiple lens are obtained icorresponding to the number of the perforations. The central electrode l is, for instance, impressed with a potential of 5,000 volts, whereas the other two electrodes 8 and 9 with a potential of 20,000 volts.
In the operation of the device a plurality of fine ion rays are emitted at the openings 6 of electrode 4, as previously mentioned. These rays are so formed, due to the potential on the electrode 4. that each ray has a sufficiently large cross-section in the plane of the electrostatic multiple lens 1-9 to cover the entire area of the lens. Thus the ions composing small sections of each ray enter the openings H of the front electrode 8 of the multiple lens 1-9. Looking at it from the standpoint of the multiple lens, each individual lens thereof receives a plurality of ion ray sections, which are parts of the ion rays emitted from the plurality of openings 6, respectively. The ray sections received by each individual lens are affected by the lens potential in known manner and are focused on the foil l4, whereby perforations are burned in the foil. In this connection, it may be pointed out that since each ray section received at an individual lens reaches the lens from a different direction from the directions of the other ray sections, these ray sections are focused at different points on the foil l4, and the perforaticn pattern producedat the foil is a reproduction oi the opening pattern at electrode 4, although much reduced in size.
In llig. 2 is shown a top view of a portion of the foil film it provided with perforations obtained by the burning process. The reference numerals l1, l8, l9 and I denote fields of filter perforations, each produced by one element of the multiple lens. Each perforation in such a field corresponds to the projection of a corresponding perforation in the electrodes 3 and 4 of the electron emitting source as above explained.
Since from a constructional point of view the distance a between the individual fields of the perforations produced by each element of the multiple lens is great in proportion to the width b or the field, also the portions of the foil not yet provided with perforations may be perforated by the use of electrostatic deflecting fields which may be, for instance, produced by deflecting plates is and it which deflect the ion rays in a known manner. With the aid of the above-described arrangement the greatest possible number of fine, nay ultra-microscopic filter perforations may be attained. Assuming, for instance, that in the electrode 4 there are one hundred perforations of a diameter of 0.5 mm. and that the electrostatic multiple lens has 50 perforations, 5,000 periorations are obtained at the same time in the filter foil with one burning operation.
When carrying the invention into practice it is particularly advantageous to use such ions which react with the filter substance. This is, for instance, the case when employing oxygen and pyroxylin foils.
What is claimed is:
1. An arrangement for producing filters, where'- by fine perforations are made in a foil by means of ion rays, comprising a source of ions, an electrostatic multiple lens for forming a plurality of overlappin ion beams, and a second electrostatic multiple lens arranged to produce a plurality of ion beams from each of said first mentioned beams and project them on the foil to be perforated.
