PRECISION ELECTRICAL COMPONENT Filed March 2, 1962 7 r ll/14420001114 g INVENTOR JOHN M. HOYTE ATTORNEY United States Patent 3,217,390 PRECISION ELECTRICAL COMPONENT John Merrishaw Hoyte, Palo Alto, Califrl, assignor t0 Hewlett-Packard Company, Palo Alto, Calif., 21 corporation of California Filed Mar. 2, 1962, Ser. No. 177,023 1 Claim. (Cl. Z9155.62)
This invention relates to a precision electrical component such as a wound resistor.
The main object of this invention is to relieve the stresses imposed on a wire wound on a core. A change in the stress on the wire of a wound resistor changes the cross-sectional area of the wire and therefore its resistance.
Referring to the drawing, FIGURE 1 shows a core 3 made of a deformable elastic material such as Dow Corning Silicone Rubber No. 80. This core 3 is provided with end flanges 5 and with an axial aperture through which a bolt 6 provided with a head 7 and a nut 8 may be inserted. Before Winding the wire 9, the nut is turned until the core 3 is compressed, thus reducing its length and increasing its diameter. The wire 9 is then wound in planes perpendicular to the axis of the core. When this is done, the bolt 6 is removed, thus reducing again "ice the diameter of the core and leaving the winding somewhat loosely thereon. Thus there is no need to match the coefficients of expansion of the core 3 and of the wire 9.
I claim:
The method of making a precision electrical component including a wire and a permanent, deformable elastic core, said method comprising the steps of subjecting said core to a compression force along an axis to increase uniformly the diameter of said core, winding said wire on the expanded surface of said core in planes substantially perpendicular to said axis, and releasing said compression force to leave said winding somewhat loosely mounted on said core.
