  • the glass dome SI and the coupling loops of tubes 53 and 55 within the dome, project into the guide 89. This provides a magnetic coupling between the magnetron and the guide which is free from intermediate lines or branch circuits. By such coupling the frequency band over which the coupling is correct is greatly increased and a complex adjustment is not required for proper loading.
  • the coupling loops of tubes 53 and 55 are shown as connected to the lower end plate l3 in the center thereof. However, this center connection may be eliminated if desired and the two tubes connected directly together.
  • the center connection is belived to be preferable however to provide a convenient path for the circulation of cooling fluid and a desirable structural support.
  • the grounding of the coupling loops at approximately the center between the connection thereof to the two anode members tends to suppress the undesirable symmetric mode of oscillation of the magnetron, that is, the mode in which both anode members are positive at the same time.
  • a sheet metal shield is connected across the outer ends of the coupling loops to reduce the inductance provided by these loops in the resonant circuit.
  • the upper edges of this shield have portions 93 thereof adjacent the openings 51 and 59 in the lower end plate l3 through which the tubes 53 and 55 extend.

  • the ring 8'! is preferably copper plated steel and extends just inside the alloy ring 83 to which the base of the glass dome BI is sealed to prevent overheating of the seal by eddy currents in the alloy ring.
  • the output loops of tubes 53 and 55 are part of the main resonant circuit of the magnetron and couple the magnetron to the magnetic field within the guide 89 which may have the familiar rectangular cross-section. If it is desired to increase the coupling to the rectangular guide 89, two vanes 95 and 91 may be attached to the loops as in Fig. 5. These vanes 95 and 9'! extend parallel to the wider walls 99 of the guide with one vane relatively close to each wall 59. The vanes then contribute a capacitive coupling to the electric field in the guide 89 in proper phase to add to the magnetic coupling provided by the coupling loops of tubes 53 and 55. This increased coupling is obtained without increasing the self-inductance of the output loops and so enables the magnetron to operate at higher frequencies. This arrangement provides a more uniform coupling over the wave length spectrum of the magnetron because the magnetic coupling is tighter at lower frequencies and the capacitive coupling is tighter at higher frequencies.
  • FIG. 6 Another arrangement for increasing the direct coupling to the wave guide is shown in Fig. 6.
  • a metal dome-like structure Nil is attached to the output loops.
  • the sides of the dome structure provide a capacitive coupling with the walls of the guide 89 with the improvements as described in connection with the capacitive coupling of Fig. 5.
  • the dome structure effectively short circuits the space within it so that the inductance of the output loops is further reduced. This provides an additional improvement in uniformity of coupling over a wider range.
