With Variable Inductor And Capacitor Structure In Common Patents (Class 334/66)
  • Publication number: 20090096557
    Abstract: Disclosed is a variable inductance applying device using a variable capacitor, and a variable frequency generating device thereof. The variable inductance applying device includes: a first inductor whose both terminals are connected to an inductance applying terminal applying inductance to an external circuit; a second inductor inductively coupled to the first inductor; and a variable capacitor connected to both terminals of the second inductor, which varies inductance from the inductance applying terminal by changing capacitance. Therefore, the inductance to be applied to the external circuit can be varied by changing the capacitance of the variable capacitor. Since the variable capacitor rarely contains a resistance component, energy loss due to the resistance component hardly occurs. As a result, the variable inductance applying device has a high value of Q.

  • Patent number: 4851798
    Abstract: A unitary tuning structure of a UHF tuner includes an inductance loop, an inductance adjustment element attached to a top portion of the inductance loop so as to be foldable with respect to the inductance loop about an axis parallel to the printed circuit board to which the inductance loop is attached and a capacitance adjustment tab attached to a side portion of the inductance loop so as to be foldable with respect to the inductance loop about an axis perpendicular to the printed circuit board. In another form of the unitary tuning structure, a second inductance loop can be attached within the first loop.
