UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WIRELESS COMMUNICATION.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 5, 1907.
Application filed November 80,1906. Serial No- 345,642.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GREENLEAF WHITTIER 'PICKARD, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the town of Amesbury, State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and Wireless Communication, the
rinciples of which are set forth 1n the following specification and accompanying drawings,
which disclose the form of the invention which I now consider to be the best of the various forms in which its principles may be embodied.
This invention relates to means for receiving intelligence communicated by electric waves.
The object ofthe invention is to prevent the deleterious effects of static discharges.
The invention consists in a static shield for the avave-intercepter, as described hereinafter and set forth as to novelty in the appended claims.
The serious results of static discharges occurring under certain climatic and atmospheric conditions, is well known to those skilled in the art.
Of the drawings, Figure 1 is a diagrammatic illustration of an app ication of the invention to a common form'of wave-intercepter, or receiving-antenna, consisting of a single conductor A forming a closed circuit and including theusual inductance L,'L and connected to earth at E; Figs. 2 and 3' are sectional views of devices used in the invention; Fig.
' 4 is a perspective illustrating the practical use of the invention; and Fig. 5 is a view of a modification.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 4, a conducting static shield composed of copper conductors S is arranged about and close to the intercepter or antenna A. This shield 1s of special construction, such that all static dis- I char es will take place on the conductors of which the shield is composed, and not on the receiving-antenna A where they have acted harmfully theretofore.
The conductors S them respectively an impedance-coil O and a non-inductive resistance 0, which may be used in numbers connected at intervals in the shield-conductors S. The object of this construction is to prevent the static discharge from taking an oscillatory form, and to cause it to slowly subside as a single pulse to earth (when the conductors S are connected to earth-E as shown), the rate of useful Improvements 1n.
= ward oscillation.
disturbance will be induced on the antenna A. Owing to the high impedance of the shield, it is practically transparent to a rapid change of electric force in the ether, so that the slgnal-waves from a transmitting-station pass through the shield without loss of energy, and cut the intercepter A to effect the usual result of delivering the signal.
The impedance-coils O are preferably made of small iron wire, in order to obtain high impedance and produce hysteresis losses which contribute to the damping out of any tendency of the static. discharge to- This wire may be about No. 26 or 28, and covered with cotton. As shown in Fig. 2, these coils are wound on wooden cores G, which may be protected by insulators I filled with a sealing compound W, such as wax. The iron-wire coils O are securely connected in any suitable way with the copper shield-wires S.
The non-inductive resistances C may be in the form of carbon rods or sticks, and may be rotecte'd as shown in Fig. 3, by insulators I led with wax W, in the same way as the impedance-coils O, and also securely connected in any suitable way with the copper shield-wires S. Instead of using separate non-inductive resistances, the arrangement shown in Fig. 5 may be used, the impedancecoils consisting of fine or high-resistance wire, to contain in one device the desired ohmic as well as reactive impedance.
As shown in Fig. 4, the plurality of shield- Wires S may be arranged entirely around the wave-intercepting antenna-wire A, and all the wires may be retained in their cooperative relations by a retaining device consisting of the Wooden arms D forming a cross, with a central insulator I for the reception of the antenna-wire A. The outer ends of the arms D may be adapted to engage around the grooves U (Figs. 2 and 3) in the insulators I, to assist in maintaining the have connected with rigidity ofthe structure.
This aerial structure is somewhat more expensive than that heretofore used, but this disadvantage is slight as compared with the offsetting advantage of preventing the static troubles which frequently result in complete inoperativeness of an installation.
