  • Patent number: 4282427
    Abstract: An electrooptical camera comprises an image intensifier connected to a control system for gate and scanning, which system includes a serial arrangement of a trigger oscillator, a master oscillator and an amplifier unit, which comprises preamplifiers and output amplifiers for the gate and scanning channels. The trigger oscillator is a relaxation oscillator utilizing an avalanche transistor and a storage capacitor in its collector circuit. The master oscillator is a Marx oscillator with an optical input and with cable line timing sections of different lengths in its collector circuits. The output amplifier of the gate channel is coupled to the gate system of the image intensifier. The output amplifier of the scanning channel is electrically coupled, via integrators, to a load in the form of a wide-band two-channel cable transformer/shaper, which is coupled to the deflection system of the image intensifier.

  • Patent number: 4210813
    Abstract: The proposed ionizing radiation generator comprises an ionizing radiation emitter including a resonance transformer whose field winding is arranged near the low-voltage end of the step-up winding, electrically associated with the electrically conducting housing of the resonance transformer. The emitter also includes an accelerating tube whose high-voltage electrode is coupled to the high-voltage end of the step-up winding of the resonance transformer and attached to one of the ends of the tubular insulator of the accelerating tube which accommodates the step-up winding. The low-voltage electrode of the accelerating tube is electrically associated with the housing, while a source of charged particles is arranged in the evacuated inner space of the accelerating tube disposed between the housing and the tubular insulator, one of the electrodes of the tube being electrically associated with the charged particle source.
