A further object of the invention is to provide an improved rotary transmission line connection which is efficient and reliable in operation.
Other and further objects of the invention will be apparent from the following description of preferred embodiments thereof, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings.
In accordance with the present invention there is provided a rotary transmission line which comprises a first transmission line having a cylindrical outer conductor and an elongated inner conductor coaxial therewith. A first pair of flat, elongated, parallel conductors extends from the outer conductor at diametrically opposed positions and provides parallel ground planes.

A pair of axis defining means are so disposed between the first and second pairs of flat conductors as to permit relative rotation between the first and second transmission lines in a plane perpendicular to the axis.
In a preferred embodiment dielectric insulating material, characterized by a low coeflicient of friction, maintains the conductors extending from the first and second inner conductors in insulated spaced relation. The inner conductors are then capacitively coupled together to eliminate noise generated by contact.
In a further embodiment of the invention the axis defining means are encapsulated with the dielectric insulating material to maintain the first and second pairs of fiat, elongated, parallel conductors in insulated spaced relation thereby providing capacitive coupling therebetween.
In a still further embodiment of the invention jeweled bearings are provided to support the first pair of flat, elongated, parallel conductors in insulated spaced relation to the second pair while permitting relative rotary motion therebetween.

An annular flange is affixed to the outer surface of the outer conductor adjacent an end thereof. A rotatable cylindrical conductor provides an extension for the outer conductor. The rotatable conductor has an annular slot formed therein adjacent an end thereof and surrounds an end of the outer conductor with the flange disposed in the slot. A first pair of fiat, elongated, parallel conductors extend from the rotatable conductor at diametrically opposed positions and provide parallel ground planes. A conductor axially extends from the end and is terminated with a spherical portion at its outer end. A second coaxial transmission line having a cylindrical outer conductor and a second elongated inner con-ductor coaxial with the second outer conductor is provided. A second pair of fiat, parallel, elongated conductors extend from the second outer conductor at diametrically opposed positions and disposed between and parallel to the first pair of fiat conductors. A conductor extends axially from the second inner conductor and has a spherical void formed in its outer end and a transverse slot parallel to the fiat conductors. The spherical portion of the first axially extending conductor is disposed in the void to permit continuous rotary motion about an axis of the transmission lines. A pair of axis defining bearing means is so disposed between the first and second pairs of fiat conductors as to permit limited relative rotation between the first and second transmission lines in a plane perpendicular to the axis.

Fig. 4 is a three-dimensional view, partly in section, of a modification of the embodiment in Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a sectional view of the embodiment in Fig. 4 taken along the lines 5-5 .in Fig. 4; and
Fig. 6 is an enlarged, detail drawing of a portion of the embodiment in Fig. 5.
Referring now to the drawings, and with particular reference to Figs. 1, 2 and 3, there is provided a rotary transmission line connection comprising a first coaxial transmission line 1 having a cylindrical outer conductor 2 and an elongated inner conductor 3 coaxial therewith. The conductors 2 and 3 are held in insulated spaced relation by a dielectric insulator 4, such as polyethylene. A pair of fiat, elongated, parallel conductors 5 and 6 extend from the outer conductor 2 at diametrically opposed positions and provide parallel ground planes. The conductors 5 and 6 are affixed to the outer conductor 2 through a rectangular tube 7 integrally formed therewith. A conductor 8 extends axially from the inner con-ductor 3 and has a slot 8a formed in its outer end with a pair of surfaces parallel to the flat conductors 5 and 6, as shown. A second coaxial transmission line la has a second cylindrical outer conductor 9 and a second elongated inner conductor 10 coaxial therewith as shown. The conductors 9 and ll) are held in insulated spaced relation by a dielectric insulator 11. A second pair of fiat, parallel, elongated conductors 12 and 13 extend from the second outer conductor 9 at diametrically opposed positions and are disposed between and parallel to the first pair of flat conductors 5 and 6 as shown. The conductors 12 and 13 are affixed to the outer conductor 9 through a rectangular tube portion 14. A conductor 15 axially extends from the inner conductor 10 and is disposed in the slot 8a as shown. An end of the conductor 15 is coated with a dielectric insulating material 16 which is characterized by a low coefficient of friction, such as Teflon, trade name for poly-tetra-fiuoro-ethylene as manufactured by E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company. The insulating material .16 maintains the first and second axially extending conductors 8 and -15, respectively, in insulated spaced :relation while providing capacitive coupling therebetween to eliminate noise generated by direct metal-.to-metal contact.
A pair of axis defining means, ball bearings '17 and 18, are disposed between the two pairs of flat conductors 5, 6 and 12, 13 and permit relative rotation between the two transmission lines .1 and In about an axis 19 in a plane perpendicular to the axis as shown. The bearings 17 and 18 :are coated withdielectric insulating coatings 20 and 21 having ta low coefficient of friction, such as Teflon. The bearings are supported in V- slots 22 and 23 in the fiat conductors 12 and 13, respectively. Slots 24 and 25 are iormedin the hat members and 6 to permit the insertion of bearing support members 26 and 27. The members 26 and 27 have conical slots .28 and 29 formed therein respectively as shown. The members 24 and 25 are pinned in place with pins .30. The rectangular tubes 7 and 14 "are soldered to the outer conductors 2 and 9 of the coaxial transmission lines. The coaxial transmission lines as shownin the preferred embodiment in Fig. lhave threaded ends 31 to permit a connection to threaded flanges :32 which connect to rectangular wave guides 33. The guides 33 are aflixed to mounting flanges 34 to permit oonnection into a wave guide transmission line system.
The bearings 17 and 18 may be plastic or jeweled bearings in'p'lace of the Teflon coated metallic bearing used in the preferred embodiment.
In Figs. 4, 5 and 6, a modification of the embodiment in'iFig. '1 is illustrated in which rotation about an axis 35 may take place. Here the outer conductor 36 of a first transmission line :37 has an annular conductive flange 38 affixed to its outer surface adjacent an end thereof as shown. The rectangular tube ,member 3% :has an annular slot 40 formed therein. The outer conductor 36 has an end covered with :a dielectric material 41 characterized by a low coeificient'offriction such as Teflon. 'Rotation about an axis 42 is still possible since the inner conductor 43 of the coaxial transmission line 37 has .a cylindrical extension '44 which is terminated with :a spherical portion 45. The other transmission line 37a has it inner conductor-46 terminated in a-transverse slot 47 to permit limited rotary motion about the axis 42. A substantially spherical void 48 is :formed in the end of the inner conductor-46 as shown to permit continuous rotation of the inner conductor 43 relative to the inner conductor 46 about .the axis 35.
