Title: Electron discharge apparatus
IPC: H01J21/02
Filed: 1937-12-17
Abstract: 488,695. Valve amplifying circuits. STANDARD TELEPHONES & CABLES, Ltd. Dec. 17, 1937, No. 35046. Convention date, Jan. 6. [Classes 39 (i) and 40 (v)] In order to obtain the condition for high efficiency in Class C amplifiers, that the instantaneous potential of the anode during current flow is considerably less than the constant anode potential, an auxiliary anode is placed between the cathode and anode and suitably connected to the output circuit. The electron discharge device 10, Fig. 1, has an auxiliary anode 20 disposed between the main anode 12 and the control grid 13 and connected to such a point on the inductance 14 of the output circuit that its alternating potential is less than that of the main anode. The auxiliary anode may consist of spaced wires 23 in radial alignment with the grid wires 22, Fig. 3, or may consist of curved strips 25, Fig. 4, in which case a magnetic field produced by the coil 24 is employed to cause the electrons to travel in curved paths. A screen composed of wires in radial alignment with the grid and anode members may be employed. When the grid potential on the positive half-cycle is small, the anode potential E does not fall very much and the alternating potentials appearing on the anodes 12 and 20 respectively are as shown in curves B and A, Fig. 2, the majority of the electrons following the paths P or P<1> and going to the anode 12 which has the lower instantaneous potential and is therefore more efficient. As the input potential increases the instantaneous potential of anode 12 falls and more electrons go to the auxiliary anode along paths such as P<2>, until finally the potentials on the anodes are as shown at A<1>, B<1> anode 12 being negative with respect to the cathode over the greater portion of the half-cycle and the electrons going to anode 20 along paths such as P<3>. In a further embodiment of the idea, Figs. 5 and 6 (not shown), a second auxiliary anode is employed, this anode and the main anode both being negative over the majority of the half-cycle at full load. The invention is stated to be applicable both to high-frequency amplification and to class B push-pull amplification of audio and other frequencies.

[Class 3(ii)] An advertising device with changeable symbols comprises a frame 9, Figs. 1 and 2, containing a plurality of horizontal profiled bars of two kinds arranged alternately, one type A for retaining line-spacing plates A<1> in position and the other B, for accommodating symbol-carrying plates B<1>, the plates B<1> being locked in position by the plates A<1> and the joints between the plates being masked by projections 14<1>. Each line-spacing bar A has a dovetail groove 1 in the face and two aligned grooves 2 in the sides. The symbol bars B are flat with two protruding rails 4 and cut-out apertures 5 to reduce weight. The bars A, B are assembled by inserting the longitudinal edges of the bars B in the grooves 2 of the bars A. The junction is such that a groove 13 is left between each rail 4 and the adjacent side wall of a bar A. The outside bars are of type A and the externally situated grooves 2 are filled by fillets 6. Other fillets are inserted in notches left on the ends of the bars and secured to them by screws 8. The frame 9 has one removable side 9<1>. The spacing plates A' are made of plastic or like material and have dovetail projections on the underside for engaging the bars A. Bosses 14<1> are provided on the face of each plate, the bosses on three sides of the plate being arranged to overhang the edges, thus locking the adjacent plate A<1> in position and also the adjacent symbol plates B<1>. A locking plate A", Fig. 11, is used at one end of each row of A<1> plates. This plate has no dovetail projections so that it may be removed, but has rectangular alignment projections 10‹ registering with the groove 1 and a central bolt 15 with a head 15<1> which has dovetail ends that engage the bar A when the bolt is rotated by a key. The symbol plates B', Figs. 1, 2 and 8, are also made of plastic material and each have rectangular projections 12' which fit into the grooves 13. The face is provided with bosses 14<1> which overhang at one side only so that the join between adjacent plates is concealed. Each plate carries a symbol 11 attached by rivets 11<1>. In use, a clear space is provided on each bar A by moving the locking plates A11 which enables the symbol plates B' to be inserted. The plates B<1> are locked by sliding them under the projections 14' on the plates A. The locking plates A<11> are then re-inserted and locked by turning the bolts 15, thus retaining all the A<1> and B' plates in position.
