  • Patent number: 5389907
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for correcting harmonics (multipoles) in high energy particle accelerators using superconducting magnets using a pattern of superconducting bands adjacent to the accelerator magnets. In such accelerators, superconducting coils are positioned around a non-magnetic beam tube with the magnetic coils designed to guide particles, such as protons, along the tube. Magnetic field non-uniformities in the form of multipole harmonics will disrupt the beam guidance, causing particles to hit the tube walls and be lost, reducing accelerator efficiency. The negative effects of multipoles (harmonics) in such accelerators can be reduced or eliminated by positioning a non-magnetic tube bearing a pattern of longitudinal superconducting bands, connected by circumferential band segments around the exterior of the helium vessel or other suitable surface near the magnet ends. The bands are formed from a superconductor having a critical temperature above the boiling temperature of liquid nitrogen.

In the coil, a plurality of coil units 4 in each of which two coil end portions 3c are bent such that they oppose each other are laid on top of another, and the individual coil units are electrically connected to each other. Alternatively, two-layer coil units in each of which the two ends of the conducting wire are located on the outer side of the outer diameter portion of the coil unit are laid on top of another, so that all the connecting portions of the conducting wires between the individual two-layer coil units can be located on the outer side of the outer diameter portions. Alternatively, the connecting portions of the conducting wires between the individual coil units are extended such that they are separated from the coil unit.

  • Patent number: 5268618
    Abstract: A linearity compensation apparatus for a multi-scanning monitor which has a magnetic deflection-type cathode ray tube includes a linearity coil to be connected in series with the deflection coil of a horizontal deflection system of the multi-scanning monitor. An electromagnet has a core connected to the linearity coil and a line coil wound on the core thereof. A current control circuit controls the amount of current flowing through the line coil of the electromagnet so as to correspond with the horizontal scanning frequency from an external display adapter, thereby varying the magnetic field strength of the electromagnet in order to vary automatically the relationship between the inductance and the current flowing through the linearity coil in accordance with the magnitude of the horizontal scanning frequency.

  • Patent number: 5247272
    Abstract: A dipole coil for use in a superconducting electromagnet employs two saddle-shaped coils in a diametrically opposed relationship. Each of the saddle-shaped coils includes central linearly extending portions, and curved saddle portions at the ends of the coil, respectively. A trapezoidal curved portion spacer is wedged into place against part of the saddle portion of the coil at the end thereof so as to exert a compressive force on such part which will inhibit displacement of the coil windings when an electromagnetic force acts thereon. In this way, friction at the coil is suppressed so as to prevent quenching. At the other end of the coil, the trapezoidal spacer includes a triangular member and a trapezoidal member spaced from one another so as to define a passageway. Leads of the coil are respectively accommodated in such passageways to prevent an excessive force from acting thereon. In this way, damage to the leads is also prevented.

  • Patent number: 5237245
    Abstract: Accumulation of charge between neighboring image lines can be prevented in a television pick-up tube in which an image pick-up face is scanned along image lines by an electron beam when a comparatively small periodic deflection is imposed on the electron beam in a direction perpendicular to the image lines. To achieve this, a magnetic deflection element in the form of a saddle-shaped coil is disposed between the vertical deflection element of the television pick-up tube and the envelope of the electron gun.

  • Patent number: 5225737
    Abstract: A deflecting yoke which is of a divisionally winding type that electric wires are wound in a plurality of slots so as to provide a saddle-shaped deflecting coil. Included in the deflecting yoke is an insulating frame having a smaller aperture section which is therein equipped with a hooking device for hooking electric wire bundles so that portions of the electric wire bundles are curved along a cathode ray tube. The curved portions of the electric wire bundles are arranged to be closer to a top of neck portion of the cathode ray tube as the corresponding electric wire bundles are wound in the slots formed at more inner position of the deflection yoke. The hooking device comprises a plurality of guide walls along which the portions of the electric wire bundles are curvedly hooked.

  • Patent number: 5223769
    Abstract: A scan velocity modulation (SVM) coil arrangement for a cathode ray tube has SVM coils arranged on a rear portion of the main horizontal deflection coils. The main horizontal coils are of the saddle type and have flat end turns at the rear of the deflection coil, lying along the surface of the picture tube. The SVM coil is placed over the flat rear end turns forward of the static convergence magnets and forward of ferromagnetic materials associated with the electron gun. The sensitivity of the SVM coil is increased to the point that the coil can be efficiently driven in a progressively scanned raster display, at twice the horizontal rate of an interleaved raster display.

  • Patent number: 5221878
    Abstract: A television pick-up tube in an image pick-up system comprises an high-frequency magnetic deflection element which deflects the electron beam perpendicularly to the line direction in the television pick-up tube. As a result, residual charge remaining between the image lines on the target face of the television pick-up tube is neutralized. Inductive coupling of the high-frequency deflection element to the power supply increases the resonance frequency of the deflection element, so that the deflection element can operate at a frequency which exceeds the video signal frequency so that it does not interfere therewith.
