This invention relates to electron discharge devices, and more especially to such devices having multi-control electrodes by which the mixing of a number of waveforms can be effected, such as is necessary in multi-channel telephone systems. The invention has for its object to provide an improved device which is especially useful for mixing waveforms but which may also have other applications in the electric and communications arts.
An electron discharge device embodying the present invention has an electron, source or cathode spaced from an output electrode or anode, the cathode and anode being common to a group of similar control electrodes or grids which are disposed in closeproximity to the common anode in the space between the cathode and anode so that each grid is. spaced the same distance as the others from the cathode and anode, and screening electrodes being disposed partitioncorresponding parts.
wise between the grids so as to screen each grid 7 from the others. These screens may be grounded or connected to a low potential when the device is in operation. In such a device when in operation, a fraction of the electron stream fromthe cathode is controlled by each grid, each of which may have one of the signals to be mixed applied thereto. The inter-grid screens are provided to reduce grid interaction (the so-called Miller effeet) to negligible proportions. Control of the proportion appearing at the anode of each input signal may be effected by controlling the bias of each of the grids, or for this purpose further control electrodes may be included in the device.
Various constructional forms of the invention are possible, and by way of example in the accompanying diagrammatic drawing Fig. 1 isa view in elevation of one form of electron discharge device constructed in accordance with the invention, with the multi-control electrode assembly depicted as a section taken on the line l--l of Fig. 2;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the multi-control electrode assembly;
Fig. 3 is a plan view taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1 showing the layout of the lead-in pins in the base of the device;
Fig. 4 is a view in elevation of another embodiment of the invention;
- Fig. 5 is a plan view taken on line 5--5 of Fig. 4 showing-the layout of the lead-in pins in the base of the device of Fig. 4;
Figs. 6, 7 and 8 are views corresponding respectively to Figs. 1, 2 and 3showingthe' device Referring to Figs. 1 to 3, an electron discharge device according to the invention is depicted having a plane-parallel arrangement of electrodes,
in which a substantially flat electron emitter or cathode .C of the equipotential type provided with an internal heating element H is mounted horizontally in the evacuated glass envelope E of the device and parallel with the base B. Spaced above the cathode Q and in parallel relation thereto is a group (designated by G in Fig. 1) of similar control electrodes or grids G1 Gs, disposed side by side in a circle of which the individual grids constitute sectors separated from one another by narrow gaps to as to be insulated from one another. In the radial gaps between adjacent sectorial grids are disposed partitioning screens D which may be imperforate and may be made of metal sheet or strip. The screens D are shown disposed in vertical planes perpendicular to the plane of the sectorial grid array and extending sufiiciently above and below that plane to ensure effective screening of the grids from one another; In operation, the screens D may be grounded or connected to chassis or to a low potential and, therefore, may be conductively connected together within the device, for instance by an encircling metal band or ring secured to their outer extremities to form a wheel-like structure as shown, whereby the screens D may be all connected to the same potential by a single conductor leading from the screen structure. On the side remote from the cathode of the grid array. G and in close.- proximity to the latter is mounted in parallelism therewith a substantially fiatcommonanode A.
The device is shown constructed with a moulded glass base B having sealed through it stiff lead-in pins, generally indicated by P, upon which the cathode, grid and screen structures are supported by stiff wire leads welded to the electrodes and pins. The grids G1 G9 are respectively connected to pins PG1 PGQ in'a circular array near the periphery of the base B, as shown in Fig. 3. The cathode C and its heater H are respectively connected to pins PC and PH in the centre of the base B. The screen structure D may be connected to the cathode pin PC (as indicated in Fig. l) or to one of the heater pins PI-I. After inserting the electrode assembly mounted on the base B into the envelope E, the latter is sealed to the glass base. The anode A is separately supported by a stiff lead L which is taken out through the top of the envelope E.
Instead of a plane-parallel electrode arrange ment, a coaxial electrode arrangement, as depicted in the embodiment of Figs.'4 and 5 may be employed. The electrode structure in this case includes a central cylindrical cathode 0 arranged vertically within the evacuated envelope e of the device, the cathode depicted being of the equipotential type provided with an internal heater h. Coaxially surrounding the cathode c is a group of similar control electrodes 91 g9 constituted by separate rings or short spiral sections superposed in a column and equally spaced apart along the length of the cathode 0. These control electrodes may be made of wire or formed from metal sheet or strip. Interposed between the electrodes 91 ye are annular or disc-like partitioning screens d which may be made from metal sheet or strip. Surrounding the column of electrodes 01 g9 and coaxial therewith and with the cathode c is the common anode a in th form of a sheet metal cylinder.
As in the case of the embodiment of Fig. 1, the device of Fig. 4 is shown constructed with a moulded glass base 17 having a circular array of lead-in pins poi p479 sealed-therethrough which are connected respectively to the electrodes g1 99. Also, the cathode c and its heater h are respectively connected to lead-in mixing electrodes 91 G1 Gs, of sectorial form and are disposed each immediately above and opposite the corresponding one of the mixing grids. The screens D screen not only the grids of the set G but also those of the set S from one another. The moulded base B1 of the device is provided with an additional circular array of lead-in pins PS1 PS9 connected respectively to the electrodes S1 So.
'In a corresponding manner, as depicted in Figs. 9 and 10, the device of Figs. 4 and 5 may be provided with a second group of control electrodes s1 so of similar construction to the mixing electrodes 91 g9 and positioned between the latter and the cylindrical anode a1 so that they coaxially surround and lie opposite the g9 respectively. The base In or the device is provided with an additional circular array of lead-in pins ps1 ps9 connected respectively to the electrodes s1 so.
The number of mixing electrodes which may be mounted in a single envelope is, of course, restricted by mechanical considerations, but up to ten mixing electrodes with separating screens Although specific embodiments have been described, various constructional modifications may pins pc and ph sealed through in the centre of the base I), and likewise the screens (1 are connected together and to either the pin pc or one of the pins ph. The anode lead I is again taken out through the top of the envelope e of the device.
The described devices operate as waveform mixers by connecting each of the channels to be mixed between the cathod and individual mixing electrodes G1 G9 or or yr. The presence of a potential on any electrode of the group causes the electron streambetween cathode and anode to be modulated in the vicinity of that mixing electrode. This control is limited, since only a fraction of the electron stream is be made therein and other constructional forms devised within the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. For instance, in a further modification of the specific embodiments described and illustrated in the drawings, the screens D or d, as the case may be, are not connected together within the device as hasbeen described and shown, but are left insulated from one another and are respectively connected to a separate set of lead-in pins or conductors additionally provided for the purpose, so that the screens can be individually connected to suitable potentials and separately controlled. Thus. in the case of the devices of Figs. 1 and 6, this modification means that the encircling band connecting screens D together would be omitted and replaced by leads to the individual screens brought out of the envelope separately, through additional pins in the base or through the en- 1 velooe elsewhere.
affected by each mixer, but this is of no great signifiicance in a device designed s ecially for mixing. The device according to this invention may be used in any apparatus where it is desired to mix two or more signals. and the proportion of each input signal appearing at the anode may be controlled by controlling the biassing potential of each of the mixin electrodes. Such control of the mixing may be effected in another way by means of further control electrodes included in the device especially for this purpose.
