  • Patent number: 7812319
    Abstract: A beam guiding magnet includes a first and second coil system, which are designed such that the dipole moments of the first and second coil systems point in opposite directions. Since the dipole moments of the first and second coil systems point in opposite directions, the two dipole moments at least partially compensate for one another. The resultant dipole moment of the beam guiding magnet may be reduced. The beam guiding magnet may take into account that the remote field of a beam guiding magnet can be lowered by a reduction in the dipole moment of the beam guiding magnet. The dipole moment decreases with the cube of the distance from the beam guiding magnet. A quadruple moment, which on attenuation of the dipole moment represents the next strongest field component, decreases with the fifth power of that distance.

  • Patent number: 7414504
    Abstract: A solenoid plunger for use in solenoid driven multi-line embossing systems is constructed of magnetic steel laminations that are attached to a center block which is machined to mount a solenoid shaft and anti-rotate pins. The laminations are attached to the center block with screws and vacuum epoxy glued for a very high cycle life. The laminated steel construction dramatically reduces eddy currents, which allows the magnetic field to rise and fall much more quickly than a conventional steel plunger. It also increases the magnetic force in the solenoid. This reduction in solenoid plunger eddy currents and increase of magnetic force in the solenoid structure itself operates to increase embosser throughput. The laminated steel construction further reduces embosser solenoid heating which also contributes to improved embossing control.

  • Patent number: 6921042
    Abstract: Concentric tilted double-helix magnets, which embody a simplified design and construction method for production of magnets with very pure field content, are disclosed. The disclosed embodiment of the concentric tilted double-helix dipole magnet has the field quality required for use in accelerator beam steering applications, i.e., higher-order multipoles are reduced to a negligibly small level. Magnets with higher multipole fields can be obtained by using a simple modification of the coil winding procedure. The double-helix coil design is well-suited for winding with superconducting cable or cable-in-conduit conductors and thus is useful for applications that require fields in excess of 2 T. The coil configuration has significant advantages over conventional racetrack coils for accelerators, electrical machinery, and magneto-hydrodynamic thrusting devices.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for correcting harmonics (multipoles) in high energy particle accelerators using superconducting magnets using corrector rods adjacent to 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-uniformites in the form of multipoles (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 selected number of pairs of carefully sized and dimensioned rods of magnetic material such as nickel or iron along the exterior of the beam tube or enclosing helium vessel near the magnet ends. The rods are equally spaced and lie parallel to the beam tube axis.

  • Patent number: 5432492
    Abstract: A deflection yoke apparatus has a pair of horizontal and a pair of vertical deflection coils, a coil separator therebetween, and a funnel-shaped deflection core which provides a magnetic path for magnetic flux generated by the deflection coils. A pair of auxiliary coils are arranged at diametrically opposed positions outside the deflection core, and may be energized by the horizontal deflection current supplied to the horizontal deflection coils. The magnetic field generated by the auxiliary coils at least partially compensates the external magnetic leakage field which is radiated outside the deflection core by the horizontal deflection coils. The auxiliary coils have rod-shaped magnetic cores which are in magnetic flux coupling relationship with the smaller end of the deflection core. Leakage flux compensation is thereby achieved with minimal affect on the deflection fields and with low power dissipation in the auxiliary coils.

  • Patent number: 5430352
    Abstract: A cathode ray tube device capable of providing sufficient shielding effect against leaking alternating electric field while exhibiting high reliability during long use. Alternating electric field generated by a deflection yoke is sufficiently reduced by the shielding effect produced by a conductive film formed on a funnel portion. A gap formed between the conductive film and an insulating sheet provided between the conductive film and the deflection yoke, due to dimensional error, is filled with insulating silicone grease, so as to avoid secular degradation of insulation which otherwise may occur due to accumulation of dust and other matters.

  • Patent number: 5382875
    Abstract: A stray magnetic field suppression system for use in a CRT image display suppresses a stray magnetic field that emanates from the horizontal deflection coil of a beam-deflecting yoke which is energized by sawtooth waveform pulses from a horizontal oscillator. The system comprises two series-connected magnetic coil assemblies in conjunction with a capacitor and activated by the sawtooth waveform pulses. The capacitor serves to integrate the pulses, enabling the suppression system to form an effective field for suppressing a stray magnetic field when the magnetic coil assemblies are interposed in the path of the stray magnetic field on opposite sides of the yoke.

  • Patent number: 5319332
    Abstract: A yoke for a cathode ray tube has deflection coils and a plurality of trim magnets mounted thereon. A tubular shield of Mu-metal slides over the coil to suppress an electromagnetic field radiated therefrom. In one embodiment, the trim magnets are inside the shield so that it has to be removed in order to adjust the magnets. In another embodiment, the trim magnets are outside the shield, so that they may be adjusted without necessarily having to remove the shield. The shield greatly reduces outwardly directed electromagnetic radiation in the vicinity of the cathode ray tube which allegedly might produce a health hazard to an operator at a video monitor terminal.

  • Patent number: 5227692
    Abstract: A convergence correcting magnet assembly means for adjusting the position of plural correcting magnets closer to or further from electron beams in a cathode ray tube, preferably comprising four bipolar magnets arranged in two offset pairs, one pair oriented in the lateral direction and a second pair in the longitudinal direction; the pairs of magnets permit laterally and longitudinally deviating beams to be adjusted or converged toward the center beam. Preferably, each of the bipolar magnets is installed in a clearance space having a spring-loaded or elastic member and an adjusting member, so that the intensities of each magnet can be adjusted by individually moving each magnet closer to or further from the beams under spring tension. Interactions between the magnets are minimized by isolating the magnets from one another.
