Abstract: A magnetizing system includes a transformer core, a first winding surrounding the core and a tube-like second winding surrounding the first winding. The second winding is formed with a slot on its upper surface and has a portion located within this slot and extending beyond the upper surface of said tube. This portion is formed with a cross-section of a size substantially smaller than the size of the slot to produce a magnetic field of high density. A screening socket is positioned adjacent the material to be magnetized. This socket is made of a material having good electrical conductivity for absorbing the stray fields so that the material to be magnetized is exposed to the magnetic field produced by said extended portion.

Abstract: A current mode data or power bus which provides communication between two or more terminal devices over a common, single-channel medium. The data bus comprises a pair of wires, twisted to form a succession of loops and short-circuited at both ends, together with an arbitrary number of bus couplers, one for each terminal. The bus couplers are formed by separate, disengageable core elements. Each bus coupler is inductively coupled to the twisted wire pair by inserting one or more core legs of the bus coupler through adjacent loops in the twisted wire pair; each wire loop around a core leg then constituting a one-turn transformer winding of the coupler. In this manner, separate terminals can be readily coupled to or decoupled from the current mode data communication bus without the need for making spliced, galvanic connections. This bus configuration is readily adaptable to single or multiphase power transmission.

Abstract: A ferroresonant transformer includes a drive winding wound around a thin strip of magnetic material and coupled to a high frequency voltage source. The drive winding is resonated with a capacitance for saturating the core portion of the strip under the drive winding. A load winding, separated from the drive winding sufficiently to provide substantial magnetic decoupling, via air, for example, is resonated with a capacitance to saturate the core portion of the strip under the load winding for providing a regulated output voltage across the load winding.

Abstract: A transformer for measuring current flowing through a conductor includes a U-shaped housing which is adapted to be received about the conductor. A closure member is secured by a sliding hinge assembly to one distal end of the housing, and is adapted to be latched between the distal ends. Within the housing a plurality a U-shaped core laminations are disposed in adjacent laminated groups. The closure member includes a plurality of laminated groups which are disposed to interleave with the distal ends of the U-shaped laminations to form a continuous magnetic circuit about the conductor. Equal secondary windings about the legs of the U-shaped laminations are connected in series to counteract any proximity effect of the conductor within the transformer.

Abstract: The heating element consists of a substrate or core of a non-magnetic material having high thermal and electrical conductivity, clad with a surface layer of a ferromagnetic material of relatively low electrical conductivity. When the heating element is energized by a source of high frequency alternating current, the skin effect initially confines current flow principally to the surface layer of ferromagnetic material. As temperature rises into the region of the Curie temperature of the ferromagnetic material, however, the decline in magnetic permeability of the ferromagnetic material causes a significant lessening of the skin effect, permitting migration of current into the high conductivity non-magnetic core, thereby simultaneously enlarging the cross-sectional area of the current flow path and expanding it into the highly conductive material; the resistance of the heating element becomes less due to both causes.

Abstract: A magnetic transformer device includes a cylindrical transformer core, a first winding surrounding the core and a second winding surrounding the first winding. The second winding is formed as a ring-like element with a slot on its upper surface and has a portion located within this slot and extending beyond the upper surface of the second winding. This portion is formed with a cross-section of a size substantially smaller than the size of the slot to produce a magnetic field of high density.

Abstract: The isolating transformer has two windings galvanically separated from each other and each connected to a respective point, which points are set at various high voltage potentials. At least one additional transformer is provided in series with the isolating transformer, and has two galvanically separated windings, with one winding being galvanically separated from the isolating transformer and the second winding being galvanically connected to a first winding of the isolating transformer.

Abstract: The electrical inductive apparatus including non-magnetic flux shields constructed of strips of highly electrically conductive material which are arranged to form a continuous loop around the core window. The shields are disposed parallel to the laminations of the magnetic core and adjacent the top and bottom surfaces of the core. Current induced in the shields by the leakage flux from the windings produces an opposing flux which prevents substantially all of the winding leakage flux from entering the magnetic core.

Abstract: A hoist brake unit having a shading coil mechanically locked into the core of the brake unit's electromagnet. The mechanical lock is achieved by passing the coil through a cavity in the core having intervening core material between the cavity and an external surface of the core.

Abstract: An information transmitting system by means of a coded magnetic signal permitting adjusting the options in a fuze. A primary winding magnetically induces a coded current in a secondary winding located within a housing. A conductive short-circuit ring is located between both windings for concentrating the magnetic flux within the receiving winding, and thus reducing the magnetic losses.

Abstract: In an induction machine having power windings disposed coaxially about the iron core thereof, means for reducing an axial mechanical force produced in any given winding by the interaction of the radial components of leakage flux produced at a time of short-circuiting and an electric current flowing in the given winding at that time. The reducing means includes a plurality of loops mounted respectively at the ends of the given winding and adapted to link the radial components of leakage flux produced at the ends of the given winding at the short-circuiting to generate induced currents in said loops. These currents produce magnetic flux for cancelling the radial components of leakage flux, respectively.
