MAGNETIC SOUND RECORDING HEAD Filed Feb. 5, 1951 INVENTOR: FRIEDRICH BERGMANN ATT'YS United States Patent Ofiicc 2,809,237 Patented st. 8, 1957 7 2,809,237 MAGNETIC some RECGRDING rman Friedrich Bergmann, Ludwigshafen (Rhine), Germany,
assignor to Badische Aniiin- & Soda-Fahrih Aktiengeselischaft, Ludwigshafen (Rhine), Germany Application February 3, 1951, Serial No. 299,258] Claims priority, application Germany February 6, 1950 6 Claims. (Cl. 179-1062) This invention relates to means for the magnetographic recording of sound.
The magnetic sound recording head hitherto used insound recording and sound reproduction consists of a magnetic core and a wire coiling around the said core. The electric oscillations flowing through the said wire coiling generate an alternating magnetic field in the vicinity of a slit provided in the magnetic core and this field imprints itself upon the permanently magnetisable sound carrier on being led past the said slit. To secure the highest possible efliciency magnetic sound recording heads are fitted with magnetic cores of highly permeable material, as for example iron-nickel or iron-nickle-copper alloys which are known to have a very high initial permeability. To cut down the eddy losses in the magnetic core during operation, the core is made up of sheets which are insulated against each other from electricity.
By reason of the high conductivity of the metallic materials hitherto used for making the core, the magnetic sound recording heads are markedly dependent as to their magnetic field from the frequency, in particular are the high frequencies notably affected, since the eddies in the magnetic core increase in proportion to the square of the frequency.
I have now found that the disadvantages hitherto inherent in magnetic sound recording heads can be substantially obviated by using magnetic ferrite, instead of the materials listed above, for making the cores of magnetic sound recording heads. Examples of ferrites contemplated for use within the purview of my invention are nickel ferrite, nickel-zinc ferrite, manganese ferrite and manganese-zinc ferrite. These substances not only have high initial permeability but also a very low electric conductivity. They can be used in a compact from as a material for making magnetic cores, without eddy losses occurring and, as a result, the magnetic field being brought into dependency from the frequency at the slit provided in the magnet.
According to a preferred embodiment of my invention the magnet cores may be made by preparing a mixture of 9.4 percent of nickel oxide, 23.8 percent of zinc oxide and 66.8 percent of ferric oxide, either by intimately mixing the said oxides or by precipitating them jointly from their respective metal salt solutions, pressing the mixture into suitably shaped molds, annealing the resulting shaped body at a temperature of between about 1200 and 1300 C. in an atmosphere of oxygen and allowing it to cool down very slowly in this atmosphere. More ease and conveniency in the manufacture of the cores will be afforded by giving the cores, instead of the standard circular form, a square-bar form in crosssection, because the ferrites may be more easily pressed and annealed in this shape. In practical use, three such bars are arranged to form a triangle with a slit being left at one of the intersectional points of the bars. The ends of the bars and the sliding surface for the recorder band may be suitably shaped by abrasion.
One embodiment of my invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which 1 represents the squarebars made of ferrite, 2 represents the slit, 3 represents the wire coiling and 4 represents the recorder band.
What I claim is:
1. Magnetic sound recording head having a core consisting exclusively of magnetic ferrite.
2. Magnetic sound recording head having a core consisting exclusively'of manganese ferrite.
3. Magnetic sound recording head having a core consisting exclusively of nickel-zinc ferrite.
4. Magnetic sound recording head having a core consisting exclusively of manganese-zinc ferrite.
5. Magnetic sound recording head having a core consisting of three bars made exclusively from ferrite and arranged to form a triangle with a slit being left at one of the intersection points of the bars.
6. A magnetic sound recording head comprising a magnetic core having legs separated by a slit, said core including the portions thereof adjacent said slit consisting solely of magnetic ferrite.
