Definitions

  • Each strip is a sheet of dielectric material having a contiguous layer of metal, on one side thereof, formed in an elongated conductive path which extends back and forth lengthwise along the strip in serpentine fashion.
  • An electrical connection is made at each end of the network roll with an end portion of a different one of the conductive paths to form an RC network therebetween having a resistance which is significant with respect to the capacitance thereof.
  • the present invention relates to unitary resistorcapacitor networks and to methods of fabricating such networks, and in particular to a unitary wound,.metallized-coated dielectric type of resistor-capacitor network roll wherein the metal coating on the dielectric is a relay coil so that when contacts in the coil circuit open, to deenerize the coil, the network absorbs and dissipates the energy in thecollapsing field of the coil to prevent an excessive voltage rise at the contacts which, if unchecked, would lead to arcing.
  • the network may be connected directly across the contacts, and in this case upon opening of the contacts the network operates to shunt the energy in the collapsing coil field around the contacts until the gap between the contacts becomes sufficiently large to preclude arcing.
  • the coil In fabricating relay coils for use in electronic circuits, the coil is often packaged within a metal container, or can, to shield the electronic circuit employing the coil from radio interference caused by the collapsing field of the coil.
  • an R-C network If an R-C network is to be connected across the windings of the relay coil, it is convenient to package the network within the metal container with the relay coil so that the coil and network form a single, or one piece, elecronic component.
  • R'-C network having asmall physical size is aunitary wound R-C network of the metal coated paper or of the metal coated plastic film variety, which is similar in construction to rolled metal coated paper capacitors and to rolled metal coated plastic film capacitors.
  • the resistance and capacitance of such networks is obtained by connecting electrical contacts to the ends of the metal coatings instead of to a maximum area of one side of each of the coatings as for pure capacitors.
  • the contacts with the metal coatings are normally achieved with laid-in terminals; that is, with terminals laid across the far extremities of the metal coatings.
  • Such contacts electrically engage only a very small area of the thin metal coatings and are often burned away when the network is subjected tohigh current pulses, resulting in an open circuit and a useless network.
  • a further disadvantage of such networks is that the resistance of the network is small in comparison with the capacitance of the network. This occurs because the capacitance of the network is a function of the total overlapping areas of the metal layers thereof and of the properties of the dielectric layers therebetween, while the resistance of the network is a function of the length and of the resistance per unit of length of the metal layers.
  • the resistance per unit of length of the metal layers is normally small since the conductive path extends across the entire width of the metal layer, and the length of the metal layer is normally short since the length is dependent upon the capacitance value desired.
  • a network is fabricated by forming a first conductive path contiguous to one side of a first sheet of insulating material and a second conductive path contiguous to one side of a second sheet of insulating material.
  • Each conductive path extends back and forth lengthwise along its associated sheet in a serpentine fashion.
  • the sheets of insulating material and the conductive paths are then rolled into convolutions with the first sheet of insulating material spaced between the first and the second conductive paths, and an electrical termination is placed in contact with an end portion of each of the conductive paths.
  • a resistor-capacitor network having a resistance value R and a capacitance value C is fabricated from first and second network forming strips, eachstrip being a sheet of dielectric material having a conductive, metal layer contiguous to one side thereof, by first providing a length of each. of the network forming strips which is equal to that required, when the strips are overlapped and when taken in conjunction with the width of the metal layers of the strips and the properties of the dielectric material thereof, to form an unrolled capacitor having the capacitance value C/2.
  • the metal layer on each of the network forming strips is then removed along a plurality of spaced lines which extend essentially parallel to the length of the strip, with alternate lines beginning at a first end of the metal layer and terminating before reaching a second and opposite end of the metal layer, and with the remaining lines beginning beyond the first end of the metal layer and terminating at the second end of the metal layer.
  • the first and second network forming strips are then overlapped, such that the dielectric material of one of the strips is spaced between the metal layer of that strip and the metal layer of the other strip, and the overlapping strips are rolled into convolutions to form a network roll.
  • An electrical contact is then formed on an end portion of each of the conductive paths.
  • the networkso fabricated exhibits a resistance value of R and a capacitance value essentially equal to C in response to an energizing signal applied across the contacted portions.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the configuration of conductive paths on each of two sheets of dielectric material employed in fabricating an R-C network in accordance with the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a partial front view of an apparatus for fabricating R-C networks in accordance with the present invention
  • FIG. 3 shows the structure of an R-C network as fabricated with the apparatus of FIG. 2;
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an R-C network having electrical connections made therewith
  • FIG. 5 is the electrical circuit equivalent of the network shown in FIG. 4.
  • the R-C network of the present invention includes, as shown in FIG. 1, two network forming strips 12 and 16, the strip 12 including a sheet of dielectric material having a contiguous and conductive metal layer 24 on one side thereof, and the strip 16 including a sheet of dielectric material 28 having a contiguous and conductive metal layer 32 on one side thereof.
  • the dielectric sheets 20 and 28 may be of paper or plastic such as polycarbonate, polystyrene or polyester sold under the name Mylar; however, any flexible dielectric material may be used.
  • the metal layers 24 and 32 may be of any conductive material such as aluminum, silver, zinc or alloys thereof.
  • the conductive metal layers 24 and 32 are positioned contiguous to their respective sheets of dielectric material by coating one side of the sheets using metal vapor deposition or sputtering techniques, and are considered'as being so positioned in the description of the invention.
  • the metal layers may also be positioned contiguous to the dielectric sheets by placing a strip of metal foil next to the sheet without bonding the surfaces together.
  • each of the network forming strips 12 and 16 is removed along a plurality of straight, spaced lines which extend essentially parallel to the length of the strips. As shown, each metal layer has been removed along a first plurality of alternate narrow lanes or lines 36 which begin at a first end 40 of each of the metal layers 24 and 32 and end before reaching a second and opposite end 48 of the metal layers. Additionally, the metal layer on each of the network forming strips has been removed along a second plurality of alternate lanes or lines 44 from a position beginning beyond the first end 40 of each of the metal layers 24 and 32 and ending at the second end 48 of each of the metal layers.
  • the remaining metal layer on each of the network forming strips forms, or is configured in, a conductive path extending back and forth lengthwise along the strip in a serpentine fashion.

  • the resistance across the width of the network forming strips and through the metal layers, extending back and forth lengthwise and across the width of each of the network forming strips 12 and 16, has been increased by the removal of the metal layers along the lines 36 and 44 is obvious.
  • the resistance R through the conductive path formed by the metal layers is equal to pL/wt, where p is the resistivity of the metal layer in ohm-meters, L is the length of the conductive path in meters, w is the width of the conductive path in meters, and t is the thickness of the conductive path in meters.
  • the lanes or lines 36 and 44 of removed metal layer are very narrow, so that the surface area of the metal layers is not appreciably reduced.
  • the network forming strips 12 and 16 are overlapped with the dielectric material of one of the strips spaced between the metal layer of that strip and the metal layer of the other strip, the capacitance exhibited between the metal layers is essentially equal to the capacitance which would be exhibited if the lines of metal layer had not been removed, and a minimum length of network forming strips is required to obtain a desired capacitance value.
  • a supply of the network forming strip 12, not having any portions of the metal layer thereof removed, is maintained on a rotatable reel 76 and extends from the reel around a guide roller 80, around a nonconductive guide roller 84, between two nonconductive guide rollers 88 and 92, and to an arbor 96.
  • a supply of the network forming strip 16, also not having any portions of the metal layer thereof removed, is maintained on a rotatable reel and extends from the reel around a non-conductive guide roller 104, around a guide roller 108, between the two guide rollers 88 and 92, and to the arbor 96.
  • the strips are overlapped with the dielectric material of one of the strips positioned between the metal layer of that strip and the metal layer of the other strip to electrically isolate the two metal layers 24 and 32, as electrical contact between the metal layer of one of the strips and the metal layer of the other strip would destroy the usefulness of the network.

  • the strips are overlapped with the dielectric material of one of the strips positioned between the metal layer of that strip and the metal layer of the other strip to electrically isolate the two metal layers 24 and 32, as electrical contact between the metal layer of one of the strips and the metal layer of the other strip would destroy the usefulness of the network.
  • the overlapped network forming strips 12 and 16 are slightly offset with respect to each other with the margin 56 of the strip 12 overlying the metal coating 32 of the strip 16 and with the margin 68 of the strip 16 overlying the metal coating 24 of the srip 12.
  • a metal removing device 112 associated with the network forming strip 12, and a metal removing device 116 associated with the network forming strip 16 which devices may be either lasers or electron discharge devices having sufficient power to cut through and remove the metal layer, are each positioned to project one or more narrow energy beams onto the metal layer of their associated strip.
  • the devices 112 and 116 may be mechanical cutters, each positioned to sever, or remove metal from, its associated metal layer along one or more lines.
  • the devices remove metal therefrom to form one or more longitudinal lines of removed metal in each of the metal layers.
  • Each of the devices 112 and 116 may be a plurality of laser or electron discharge devices, or a plurality of mechanical cutters, which are individually actuable to remove metal from the metal layers along lines having a selected configuration. That is, the devices 112 and 116 are selectively actuable to remove the metal layer along alternate lines on each of the network forming strips 12 and 16 from a position beginning at the first end 40 of the strips and ending before the second end 48 of the strips, and to remove the metal layer from the remaining alternate lines from an initial position beginning beyond the first end 40 of the strips and ending at the second end 48 of the strips.

  • Each of the solder blocks 120 and 124 electrically contacts the edge of a different one of the metal layers 24 and 32 along a length which is substantially equal to the total length of the network forming strips. This differs from the contacts provided to present R-C networks wherein only a very small area at an end of each of the metal coatings is contacted.

  • the resulting network roll or circuit, as fabricated, forms an R-C network having a resistance which is significant with respect to the capacitance. As already stated, this occurs because the resistance of the network has been increased in accordance with the number and the lengths of the lines 36 and 44 of metal layer which have been removed, while the capacitance of the network, if the lines 36 and 44 of removed metal layer are narrow, has remained substantially unchanged.
  • R/C resistance to capacitance
  • the capacitance value of the'capacitor is determined by the following items: (1 the amount of overlap of the metal layers 24 and 32; (2) the length of the overlapping metal layers; (3) the dielectric constant of the dielectric materials 20 and 28, and (4) thethickness of the dielectric materials 20 and 28. It is to be noted that items (1) and (2) taken together determine the effective plate area of the capacitor. If, as previously stated, the lines of metal layer which are removed are extremely narrow, so that the effective plate area of the capacitor is not significantly reduced, then the capacitance value of the network as fabricated will be essentially equal to the capacitance value which would exist if lines of metal layer were not removed to form the resistance, and the network as formed will be of a minimum size for a given capacitance value.
  • the value of the resistance is determined by the length of the serpentine path formed by the metal layers after portions thereof have been removed, taken in conjunction with the resistivity, width, and thickness of the serpentine path. Therefore, through the proper selection of dielectric materials, dielectric thickness, resistivity, thickness, length and width of the metal layers, the number and length of lines of metal layer removed from the metal layers, etc., it is possible to obtain an RC network having 'a preselected capacitance and resistance between the end contacts thereof.

That is, the number and length of lines of metal layer which must be removed from each network strip to form a conductive serpentine path having a particular length and resistance per unit of length, to provide the resistance value R in the rolled network, may be readily determined.
  • the resulting network roll may then be fabricated by winding together the requl'red lengths of network forming strips while simultaneously removing the metal layers along the required number and length of lines, and by then applying a solder block and conductor to each end of the resulting network roll.
  • each of the conductive paths formed in the metal layers is R,.
  • the resistance exhibited by each conductive path is R,/2 since since average distance traveled by electrons along the conductive path is one-half of the total length of the path.
  • the resistances of the conductive paths cooperate serially to provide a total network resistance value of R
  • the total capacitance value exhibited by the two overlapping but nonconvoluted lengths of metal layers is C /2, the overlapping and convoluted layers exhibiting the total capacitance value C since, in the convoluted form, the area of the overlapping metal layers is doubled.

From the relationship Z R j/21rfC, it is seen that as the frequency of the energizing signal increases, the reactance component j/21rrrfC decreases toward zero, until at some frequency value f, the impedance of the network becomes essentially equal to R.
