This invention relates to .a wireless receiver, of which one or more resonant circuits can` be tuned by means oi a variable tuning reactance in at least one Shortwave range with bandspread and in one or more other wave ranges without bandspread.
It has been proposed to spread one or more comparatively narrow short wave bands over the dial in that the normally constructed tuning condenser .of the receiver, which is used for tuning in the long and medium wave range, is combined in the short-wave range with a second variable condenser which is provided with particularly formed plates. In this case, the shape of the plates of the second condenser is chosen to be such that the capacity of the combination of the two condensers as a function of the position of the pointer relatively to the dial variesin accordance with a curve which exhibits alternately steep and less steep parts, the Shortwave bands which are considered to be oi particular importance and which therefore are to be spread (broadcast bands, amateur bands and the like) correspond with the flat parts of the said curve.
One disadvantage of this method is that the construction of the second variable condenser is beset with dimculty.
It has in addition been proposed before in tuning in a Shortwave range to replace the normally constructed tuning condenser which serves for tuning in the long and medium wave ranges, by a condenser having particularly shaped plates, whose capacity varies as a function of the position .of the pointer relatively to the dial according to a step-like curve as described hereinbefore. In this case there is the disadvantage that two different condensers must be used, and this increases considerably the consumption of material.
The invention has for its object to obviate the said disadvantages. According to the invention, for this purpose, the variation of the tuning reactance as a function of the position of the pointer relatively to the dial is chosen to be such that the slope of the tuning curve is reduced for part of the variation range, due to which at least one Shortwave band is spread' and, when tuning in one or more other wave ranges, the tuning reactance is combined with rat least one other variable reactance (correction reactance) which is mechanically-coupled with the tuning reactance and whose variation is brought about in such manner that, when tuning in these wave ranges,vr a tuning curvehavingan at least 2 approximately constant or at least continuously variable slope is ensured at least for part of the dial.
When tuning in a Shortwave range a Similar fixed reactance is preferably connected in series and/or in parallel with the tuning reactance in order to reduce the Variation range of the tuning reactance. It is advisable to construct the tuning reactance in such manner that for each Shortwave range at least two Shortwave bands are spread.
The tuning reactance is preferably constituted by a variable condenser, whereas the correction reactance is constituted by a variable inductance, for example a coil whose inductance can be varied by means of a slidable core of ierromag netic or conductive material.
The tuning reactance and the correction reactance being mechanically coupled with one another, they are capable of being varied by means of a common tuning device. In this case the two reactances need, however, not be varied at the same time. If desired the variation of the reactances may be eiected in succession or alternately.
In order that the invention may be clearly understood and readily carried into effect, it will now be set out more fully with reference to the accompanying drawing, on which one form of construction is shown, by way of example.
Fig, l shows a circuit embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 illustrates graphically the operation of the circuit shown in Fig. l, Showing tuning position as afunction of C and LC;
Fig. 3 shows a ratio dial scale calibrated in accordance with the lrequency response curve shown in Fig. 2; and
Fig; 4 illustrates an embodiment of the variable capacitor shown as 2 in Fig. l.
Fig. 1 shows a resonant circuit which may, for example, constitute the oscillator circuit of a wireless receiver according to the invention. A waveband switch I permits of changing over the circuit to a number of differing wave ranges. For the sake of simplicity the iigure shows a waveband switch having two positions, that is to say a position a, in which the receiver is tunable in a range of long or medium waves and aposition b, in which the receiver can be tuned with bandspread in a range of short waves. In the position a of the switch l the resonant circuit is formed by a tuning condenser 2 and an inductance coil 3 whose inductance is variable bymeans of a slidable core 4 of ferro-magnetic or conductive material. In practice satisfactory results are obtained by the use of a core 4 made of copper. The condenser 2 and the core 4 are mechanically coupled with one another and are controlled by a common tuning device.
In the position b of the switch I the resonant circuit is formed by the condenser 2 with which a xed condenser 5 is connected in series as well as by an inductance coil 6. The short Wavesto -be received are distributed in such manner about several short wave rangesv thatiea'ch of these ranges comprises two short-wave bands to which bandspread is applied.
Referring to Fig. 2, the curve p indicates the variation of the capacity C of the condenser 2 as a function of the position of the pointer relatively to the dial. The curve q-shows the variation of the capacity of the series combinationof the condensers 2 and 5. In the parts AB and DE the capacity varies comparatively fast, whereas in the parts BD and EF which correspond with the s'hortwave'bands tolbe spread a comparatively slow'variation of the capacity is ensured. The short wave 'bands are thus spread aboutfa comparatively 'large part of thedial, whereas in the parts of the Shortwave range lying external to the Shortwave bands and corresponding to the parts AB and DE of' the dial the slope of the tuning curve is approximately equally large as in the case of the wave range from 13 to 30 m being covered without changingover and without use of bandspread.
In order to secure the capacity 'variation shown by the curve p,`the fixed and/or movable plates of the condenser 2 are shaped in a particular manner, for example in' such manner that these plates are constituted by alternating parts' having a small and a large diameter. Fig. 4 illustrates a suitable conguration of condenser plates by means of which the relationship between dial setting and capacitance indicated by curve p of Fig. 2 may be achieved. In this gure, 'plate I0 is a stator plate while plate Il is a rotor plate `rotatable on a shaft I2 Rotor Il comprises alternate sections having large and small diameters to produce a non-linear capacity variation as the rotor is rotated.
In the receiver according to the invention this condenser 2 having particularly shaped plates is also used as a tuning condenser in the long and medium wave range. In order that in these wave ranges normally varying tuning maybe secured, it is essential that the divergences which the tuning curve p shows relatively to a normally varying tuning curve having an at least approximately constant slope' should be corrected. According to the invention, this correction takes place by means of a variation Aof one of the other reactances of the resonant circuit, for example by providing the inductance coil 3 with a slidable core 4.
The inductance variation ofthe coil 3 may be eiected in such manner that the said divergences are obviated throughout the variation range of the tuning condenser or elsethese divergences may be neutralized'only in partof the variation range, using solely these, parts for tuning` in the long and medium wave ranges. A correction throughout the variation range of thetuning condenser can only berachieved 'with considerably greater diiiiculty than a correctionover an adequately chosen part of the variation range, since in the first-mentioned case at some` points of the variation range a correction may be required which is about.200% ofthe initial value `of the inductance, whereasin the second case a correcranges, when the correction is a minimum.
i this case the tuning in the long wave range is not beset with rparticular diiliculty. However, the
medium waves to be received must be distributed about two approximately equally sized medium wave ranges (for example from 1500 to 1000 kc./s.
and from 1000 to 550 kc./s.)
In Fig.l2, kthe dotted curve 1' shows the product LC of the inductance of the coil 3 and the capacity 'of thecondenser 2 as a function of the *position of the pointer relatively to the dial. In
the part BE of the dial this curve has an at least `approximately constant slope, so that the medium .and long wave ranges are tunable in the normal manner.
Fig. 3 shows how the'tuning dial of a receiver according tothe invention-'may be constructed. As is apparent Afrom this-ligure, the receiver may be provided -with seven scales K1, K1, K3, K4, M1, M2 and `L placed below-onevanother, The wave rangev on the scale K1 comprises 'the broadcast bands of 13, 16 and 19 m., the latter two of which are spread. The wavev ranges corresponding to the scales K2 and K3 comprise the short-wave bands of 25 and 30 m. and of 45 and 50 m. respectively which are spread all of them. The range corresponding with the scale K4 comprises the broadcast bands of 60and 80 m., which are spread jointly in the part BD of the dial. Each of the scales M1 and M2 comprises one of the medium waveranges, whilst the longv wave range is found on the scale L.
The invention brings about the additional advantage vthat tracking of the various circuits is more easily obtainable, since this can be taken into account when'designing the correction reactance. In addition, it `is advantageous that with the receiver according tothe invention the slope of the tuning curve is' greater for the long waves and smaller for the medium 'Waves than with the well-known receivers, since in the well-known receivers this slope is generally too small for the long waves and too large for the medium waves.
