CRYSTAL BEAT-FREQUENCY OSCILLATOR I Fil ed July 19, 1945 INVENTOR Patented Aug. 31 1948 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CRYSTAL BEAT-FREQUENCY OSCILLATOR Montford Morrison, Upper Montclair, N. J Application July 19, 1945, Serial No. 605,885
Claims. 1 v
The present invention relates to electronic tube oscillators, more particularly to beat-frequency electronic tube oscillators and specifically to piezo-electric crystal controlled beat-frequency electronic tube oscillators.
An object of the invention is to provide a beatfrequency oscillator employing but a single tube and having a high order of beat-frequency stability.
Anotherobject of the invention is to provide a crystal controlled oscillator operating at frequencies, which in the prior art require a costly bar of piezo-electric crystal material, but which,
by the mployment of the present invention, oper ate with two very thin and very inexpensive crystals in quantity production.
A further object of the invention is to provide a crystal controlled single tube oscillator for frequencies below the range of practical single-bar crystal-controlled oscillators.
By the employment of the present invention, the lower range of crystal-controlled oscillators is not only extended below the practical range of prior art crystal-controlled oscillators, but fur-- ther, provides a simple and inexpensive crystalcontrolled oscillator within the present low ranges requiring bars of crystals. For instance, by the employment of this invention, primary oscillation frequencies may be obtained simply and inexpensivelyfor oscillators in the audiobeat-frequency range. Under prior art structure, a primary frequency oscillator for an audio beat-frequency system would require a bar of quartz crystal of the magnitude of about 3 centimeters long with the accompanying expensive crystal holder and other auxiliary fittings. With the present invention, a beat-frequency oscillator may be constructed employing two crystals of say 1% the thickness of the length of the bar mentioned above and which thin crystals are now in production in large quantities and which may be produced at a very small fraction of the cost of the single bar.
It will be appreciated that exact frequencies are not required in a beat-frequency oscillator, since it is only the difference frequency which needs to be exact; suitable crystals may be selected in pairs from large runs of crystal manufacture without the necessity of grinding any one particular crystal to a high degree of accuracy. In further explanation of this point, it may be said that a single bar of piezo-electric material ground and/or etched to a high degree of accuracy for say 100,000 cycles, is a very expensive procedure. However, if a large number of crystals are ground, say in the vicinity of 3 millimeters without requiring that the frequencies be very exact, the cost of such thin crystals is a very small fraction of that of the single highly accurately made bar. With considerable production, it is practicable to select pairs of approximately ground crystals which have a frequency difference of 100,000 cycles, to a good degree of practical accuracy. In any case, the final grinding or etching of a single unit of a pair of such thin cfiystals is a comparatively inexpensive procedure.
The lower practical limit of quartz oscillator bars is about 20,000 cycles, and it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that by the employment of the present invention, this lower limit may not only be extended but at a cost greatly under that of a 20,000 cycle bar, which, it will be remembered, requires a very special holder which costs as much as a considerable portion of the cost of the bar itself.
The applicant appreciates that the operative results of his invention may be accomplished by a combination of two separate and complete oscillators employing two tubes and two plate circult oscillatory systems and the nature of the present invention resides in the novel structure disclosed, which employs but a single tube and a single plate circuit oscillatory system which, it is believed, is a distinct improvement in the art.
The spirit of the present invention does not reside in the employment of any particular type of tube and is independent of the number of electrodes contained in the tube and independent of which electrodes are employed for what purpose, provided of course, that the structure in question is Within the meaning of the recitation of the claims hereunder.
The nature of the invention resides in a structure which employs two piezo-electric crystal oscillatory systems connected to a single electronic space discharge tube having a single capacitive inductive oscillatory output circuit in such a structural form that both of the frequencies of the two crystal oscillatory systems are simultaneously present in the single output capacitive-inductive oscillatory system.
A very large number of structures may be made, employing the spirit of this invention, by the use 'of'multielectrode tubes employing more than one grid for control purposes, structural differences in feed-back arrangements and various other modifications, extensions and changes, but it is believed that the invention can be best taught to those skilled in the art by the disclosure of one of the very simplest embodiments of the invention aees, 188
since the use of multi-electrode tubes, beam power tubes, internal and external feed-back circuits and the like are well known to those skilled in the art. The specific nature of the invention will be understood by reference to the description hereunder, particularly when taken in connection with the drawing.
In the figure, I is a triode having an anode 2, a grid 3 and a cathode 4. A piezo-electric crystal 5 is connected between the anode 2 and the grid 3 and which crystal may be thrown out of circuit by opening switch 6.
The grid cathode circuit is shunted by a resistor l which is provided with a bias generator 33 which may be shunted by a condenser 9. The cathode grid circuit is further shunted by a second piezoelectric crystal Iii which may be thrown out of circuit by opening switch I I.
Tube l is provided with a source of anode energy i2 which may be shunted by condenser I3 and energy is fed from source i2 through the capacitive-inductive oscillatory system M to anode 2. The oscillatory system M is coupled to a detector l5, if and when desired.
The operation of the invention will now be disclosed.
By opening switch 6, it will be observed by those skilled in the art that in the absence of any operation on the part of crystal 5, that the circuit is that of a common type of crystal-controlled oscillator in which the feed-back from the anode circuit is provided by the capacitive coupling between anode 2 and the grid 3.
It is well known in the art that such a circuit, that is, as illustrated by the figure with switch 6 open, requires that the feed-back to the crystal Ill be from an anode circuit system such as M which is inductive to the frequency of the natural period of crystal i0, that is, the oscillatory circuit l4 must be tuned to a natural frequency slightly higher than that of the natural period of crystal l6.
Further, if switch 6 be closed and switch H be opened, it is obvious to those skilled in the art, that the diagram under these conditions discloses a common type of crystal-controlled oscillator in which the control crystal is operated by direct feed-back from the anode circuit, and further, it is well known in the art that such a crystal-controlled oscillator requires that the feed-back energy for crystal 5 be supplied from an oscillatory circuit M which is capacitive to the natural frequency of the crystal ii, or in other words, circuit l4 must be tuned to a slightly lower frequency than that of the control crystal 5.
The applicant has discovered that by closing both switches ii and H and by properly choosing the frequency difference between crystals 5 and It, he can adjust circuit M so that the circuit H5 is simultaneously inductive to the frequency of crystal l and capacitive to the frequency of crystal '5 and thus is able to provide with a single tube and a single anode oscillatory system the complete requirements for excitation of both crystals and id, simultaneously.
The Q of the circuit l4 must be considerably lower than that of crystals 5 and lil, so that cir cuit i4 is capable of oscillation with considerable amplitudes at both the frequencies of crystals 5 and i9.
With the simultaneous operation of crystals 5 and Ill, both frequencies thereof are produced in the oscillatory system is simultaneously and therefore the beat-frequency of crystals 5 and i0 appears in the output circuit I4.
The present invention is distinguished from oscillating detectors and regenerative detectors by the fact that these detectors feed back only one frequency to the input circuit thereof, that the beat-frequency is generated in a single capacitive-inductive input circuit, and not in the output circuit, and further, that if crystal control is resorted to in oscillating detectors, only one crystal may be employed locally and obviously no feed-back can be said to exist between an oscillating detector and a crystal control in a remote transmitter. Many other structural differences exist which are obvious to those skilled in the art.
