Description
Patented July 16, 1946 ADJUSTING MECHANISM Chester- S. Wolowicz, Bloomfield, and John J.
Terpay, Irvington, N. J., assignors to Westinghouse Electric Corporation, East Pittsburgh, Pa, a corporation of Pennsylvania Application April 15, 1944, Serial No. 531,258
.5 Claims.
This invention relates to adjusting mechanism and more particularly to adjusting mechanism for use with TR boxes forming part of radar systems.
The use of TR boxes is now well established in the art, although specific construction of the same may differ considerably. Essentially a TR box is a cavity enclosure within which 'are situated two electrodes across which a high voltage short circuit may be effected usually with the aid of an ionizable medium. In order that the cavity may transmit weak signals therethrough intervening between the blocked high voltage pulses, said cavity must be delicately turned to be in resonance with such signals. The tuning is ordinarily performed at the place of manufacture of the TR box, but has proved to be unsatisfactory in many instances for various reasons.
An object of the present invention is to provide a more positive and more satisfactory tuning or adjusting mechanism.
Another object of the invention is to avoid appreciable back-lash in the tuning operation.
Another object of the invention is to provide a structure capable of being locked in. adjusted position.
A further object of the invention is to provide a removable adjustment control.
Yet another object is to maintain axial alinement of the electrodes irrespective of adjustment thereof.
Still other objects will appear to thos skilled in the art to which the invention appertains as the description proceeds, both by specific recitae tion thereof and by inference from the context.
Referring to the accompanying drawing in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts throughout the several views;
Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of a TR box with that part of the tuning mechanism thereon which remains part thereof;
Figure 2 is a similar cross sectional view of a TR box to which the removable portion of the tuning mechanism. namely the tuning control, is applied, removability of the tuning control being indicated by dotted line representation thereof withdrawn from the TR box;
Figure 3 is a sectional view on line III-III of Fig. 2; and
Figure 4 is a cross sectional view of a portion of a TR box to which a modified form of tuning mechanism is applied as a. permanent part thereof inits entirety.
In the specific embodiment of the invention illustratecl in said drawing, the reference numeral I0 indicates the body of a TB box here constructed as a thick disc having a large diametric passage I I intersected by an axial passage, the intersecting portions of said passages constituting the resonant cavity I2 of the device. The ends of the axial passage at the flat faces of the body portion are :sealed'vacuumtight with windows I3 transparent to a micro wave energy. The said disc body portion is, in use, interposed between the ends of waveguide sections (not shown) with the windows facing into said sections. The impulses come into the cavity I2 from one said section, and those which are permittcd to pass the cavity leave through the op posite window to continue to the receiver.
One end'of the diametric passage II of the body portion hasa fixed hollow plug I4 therein terminating within the cavity I2 in the form of a conical hollow electrode I5 axially coincident with the axis of the cavity, and said hollow electrode having its virtual apex toward the middle of the cavity. The other end of said plug M at the outside of said body portion It has a socket wherein is received and secured vacuumtight a neck portion. I6 of a reservoir IT. This reservoir assures presence of an ionizable gas availableto thecavity I2. Said reservoir is of course vacuumtight and has a cylindrical glass wall for insulating purposes in order that a pilot electrode I8 may be supported out of electrical connection with the said body 0. This pilot electrode I 8 extends through plug I4 coaxially therewith and terminates within the hollow conical electrode !5 close to the inner wall thereof toward the apex.- Said apex has a coaxial hole I9 therein as a continuation of the hollow interior of the plug, and the end of the said pilot electrode is positioned close to that hole. Preferably said pilot electrode is provided with a glass or other insulating sheath 2!], which covers the same except at the tip where discharge and ionization between said pilot electrode and hollow conical electrode is desired. A direct current voltage difference is maintained-between these two electrodes, and thus an ionized medium is maintained in the cavity I2.
Cooperating with said hollow conical electrode I5. opposed thereto and on a common axis therewith and with diametric passage II, is a solid electrode 2! having a conical end portion, the apex of which is likewise toward the middle of the cavity l2 and consequently in proximity to the virtual apex of the hollow conical electrode 15, Next the base of-the conical portion of solid electrode 2! is secured, vacuum tight, a flexible diaphragm 22, the periphery whereof is sealed vacuum tight to the cavity wall therearound, said solid electrode projecting into said cavity through the middle of said diaphragm. At the outer side of said diaphragm, the said solid electrode is enlarged to form a piston 23, the peripher whereof has sliding fit with the wall of diametricpassage ll. Said passage, in the region containing piston 23, is preferably of somewhat greater diameter than the region containing the diaphragm, thereby providing a shoulder 24 facing outwardly toward the piston and constituting a stop by which inward movement of th piston is limited for preventing the solid electrode from ever engaging the hollow electrode.
At the opposite face of the piston 23 from the conical portion or tip of th electrode 2| is a stem 25 of less diameter than and projecting coaxially from the piston. This stem is drilled longitudinally inward from its outer end and the drilled hole is tapped with screw threads 26 of small pitch. Said stem 25 is slidabl within a bearing collar 27 (Figs. 1 and 2) or 21a (Fig. 4), which is made a fixed part of the body portion of the TR box at the end of diametric passage ll thereof.
In Figures 1 and 2, the said collar 2'! is indicated as soldered in permanent position. Set screws 28 extending radially of the collar Wall are adapted to engage stem 25 of the solid electrode for securing said electrode in position to which adjusted. For added security, these set screws 28 may in turn be rendered immovable by lock nuts 29 thereon. The structure according to showing of Fig. 1 is adjusted, and the set screws and lock nuts securely tightened at the place of manufacture or elsewhere, and the device used in the field without adjustment by inexperienced or unauthorized persons.
In conjunction with the part of the adjusting means which is a permanent part of the TR box, a removable portion of the tuning mechanism is provided and shown in detail in Figures 2 and 3. Said removable portion will be herein designated in its entirety as the adjusting key 33. Viewed generally, said key provides a cylindrical housing made up of front and back disc plates 3|, 32 and a cylindrical wall 33 interposed between the peripheral margins of said plates. of the back plate 32 is an annular flange 34 of appropriate diameter to make fitting engagement upon the peripheral end margin of the aforementioned collar 21, thereby enabling the housing to be coaxially assembled upon the projecting end of said collar. A set screw 35 in said flange 34 provides for the temporary retention of the housing in its assembled position on the collar.
Within said housing of the tuning key and against the inner face of back wall 32 thereof is a drum 33 flanged as at 31 at its periphery with said flange projecting toward the front wall of the housing. Fixed within this flange is a toothed ring 33, the teeth of which are at the radially inner periphery thereof. Between said ring and the front plate 3! and overlapping the front edge of flange 31 is another toothed ring 39, th teeth whereof are likewise at the radial inner periphery of the ring. Said rings are of different diameters affording different pitch diameters for the teeth so that said rings constitut a differential. The forward and larger of these differential rings is fixed with respect to the housing. Within the two said rings is provided an eccentric band or gear 40 having a peripheral series of teeth 42 in At the outside 4 mesh with the teeth of the larger ring 39. Assembly of differential toothed rings and double eccentric gear is designated an epicyclic differential.
The eccentric band or gear iii is rotatably mounted on an eccentric 43 in turn fixed on a stub shaft 44 having means for rotating the same, illustrated in Figure 2 as a crank 45 fixed on the outer end of said stub shaft. Coaxial with said stub shaft and projecting from and fixed with respect to drum 35 and likewise coaxial with respect thereto, is a screw 43 threaded to mesh with the small pitch screw threads 26 of the piston stein tegral, rotation of said eccentric d3 revolves the eccentric gear band 40 with respect to fixed ring 39 and differentially drives the smaller ring 38, drum and screw a part f a revolution with each revolution of the crank. A very minute movement of the piston accordingly results from each revolution of the crank.
Application of the key 39 to operative position is readily accomplished by applying the screw 46 to the threaded hole 26 of the stem and spinning the housing until flange 34 thereof assumes its fully overlapping position on the end of collar 27. Set screw 35 is then manipulated to lock the housing against movement with respect to the collar, thus making the TR box and key a unit, after which operation of crank will be efiective to rotate screw 46 and adjust piston 23, solid electrode 2i and flexible diaphragm 22 by which resonant frequency of cavity !2 is varied and tuning accomplished. By preference, an auxiliary set screw 41 may be provided in housing Wall 33 to hold drum 33 stationary while applying and removing the key and while tightening set screws 28. Loosening set screw 4'! enables drum 35 to rotate independently of the housing. After said cavity is properly tuned, the key 33 is removed in reverse order and returning of the cavity is prevented except by an authorized person having the key.
It is deemed, however, within the scope of the invention, to retain the key as a permanent part of the TR box is so desired. If such be the desideratum, collar 27 of the TR box may be made integral with the back plate 32 of the housing. Fig. 4 is exemplary of such construction. Collar 21d therein is shown integral with plate 32a of the key housing. This view likewise shows actuating means for the epicyclic gearing to be accomplished by providing a kerf 48 in the outer end of a stub shaft 44a, the outer end of said shaft having an enlarged head instead of a crank thereon. Furthermore, a spring 49 may be placed between the piston stem and the drum 35 if so desired to keep the threads and other parts in tight engagement.
