Definitions

  • This invention relates to a circuit for generating a sawtooth-like current in the deflecting coils of a cathode ray tube, particularly in the image deflecting coils of the cathode ray tube in a television device.
  • a circuit of this kind generally includes a source that generates a sawtooth voltage and an amplifier valve into whose anode circuit the deflecting coils are included via a transformer. If the sawtooth-like voltage is supplied to the control grid of the amplifier valve directly, the curve shape of the current passing through the deflecting coils is found to diverge from the sawtooth-shape in that during the stroke of the sawtooth the current does not increase lineally as a function of time, as in the case of a pure sawtooth-course. The lower the frequency of the sawtooth oscillation and the smaller the primary inductance of the transformer, the more intense is this distortion. That is why this transformer-coupled circuit is not serviceable without additional means for the image deflection in a television device in which the frequency of the sawtooth oscillation is 50 or 60 cycles/sec.
  • the primary inductance of the transformer is chosen to be such that the anode direct current of the amplifier valve is at least approximately a minimum.
  • the invention is consequently based on recognition of the fact that there is a given value of the primary inductance at which the parabolic voltage at the control grid that counteracts the distortion brings about such a divergence of the anode current from the sawtooth-shape that the anode direct current of the amplifier valve becomes a minimum.
  • the circuit shown in Fig. 1 comprises an amplifier valve I of the pentode type, in the anode circuit of which the deflecting coils 2 of a cathode ray tube (not shown) are included via a transformer 3.
  • Fig. 2 shows the substitution diagram of the transformer and the deflecting coils, Lp designating the primary inductance of the transformer and Ls and Re the inductance and resistance of the deflecting coils as transformed on the primary side.
  • the integration constant 0 contained therein may L,, 1 TR,
  • the anode current is. thus becomes:
  • Fig. i is a graph showing the relation between 52.0 and Lp as given by this equation and shows that as the primary inductance Lp decreases the anode direct current falls and on having reached a minimum at increases again.
  • the primary inductance of the transformer is chosen to be such that the relation (7) is fulfilled at least approximately, the circuit thus acting with a maximum output.
  • the voltage supplied to the control grid mustv have the same shape. If starting with a sawtooth-like voltage this may, as already mentioned hereinbefore, be ensured by either using a negative feedback or by feeding a sawtooth-like voltage via a, phase shifting network to the control grid, as shown in Figs. 6 and '7 respectively.
  • Fig. 6 shows a negative feedback circuit, a resistance, which is also included in the grid circuit of the amplifier, I, being connected in series with the deflecting coils.
  • the source of voltage that supplies a sawtooth-like voltage is designated by 5.
  • the sawtooth-like voltage which is generated by the source 5, is fed by a phase shifting network constituted by condensers 6 and I and a resistance 8 to the control grid of the amplifier valve l.
  • a circuit for generating a sawtooth-like current in the deflecting coils of a cathode ray tube comprising: a vacuum tube amplifier, the anode circuit of which includes a transformer coupling to the deflecting coils; a source of supply of sawtooth voltage connected to the input of said amplifier; means for correcting the distortion of the current in the deflecting coils; and in which circuit, the primary inductance of the transformer is equal to substantially .29'IRs, where T is the period of the saw tooth current and Rs is the transformed secondary resistance, whereby the D. C. component of the anode current is maintamed a minimum.
