metallic and other getters for the purpose of cleaning up the residual gases within the bulb where, as, for example, in a radio vacuum tube,
1 a high vacuum is desirable and it is immaterial whether or not the glass walls remain transparent. This indeed is the common practice at the present day in the manufacture of high vacuum devices that depend on electronic discharge.
15 It has also been proposed to introduce a gas filling within the bulbs of rectiflers, detectors of certain types and other devices ofv like nature. Again gases that react with oxygen have been introduced into devices that are provided with electrodes or other metal parts within the 'bulb either in a vacuum or in an atmosphere of gas, for the purpose of preventing the oxidization of the metallic parts. It has also been suggested that a nitrogen atmosphere may be created within the envelope or bulb. as in a gas filled incandescent lamp, by vaporizing nitrogen bearing compounds, as, for example, phosphorous nitride, after sealing of the bulb. It is also a .frequent practice in the radio vacuum tube art to heat the electrodes to drive out the occluded gzlsss from the metal during exhaustion of the There has never been suggested, however, any entirely satisfactory method of vaporizing these substances or heating the electrodes at a desired time. In the case of radio vacuum tubes ma nesium for example is commonhr vaporized within the envelope by bombardment while the tube is being exhausted or, by inductive heating while the tube is still on the pumps. The heating of the metal parts, either inductively or by bombardment is primarily for the purpose of driving out the occluded gases. In neither instance is a it possible to control the time at which the vaporization shall take place as it occurs whenever the temperature of the metal parts has been raised to the vaporization point of the material that is desired to be volatilized. This val0 porization point is generally a low temperature yet the gettershould not be vaporized until the occluded gases have been driven out of the metal parts, an operation that requires a very much a higher temperature.
Itistheobieotoftbepreaentinventionto provide a method and means for inductive heating of the metalparts of electrical devices inclosed in an envelope, whereby the occluded gases are driven off from the metal parts by .one heating, and vap orizable material, such as I metallic getters for example, or other gas producing materials, will be volatilized by another. In accordance with my invention, I make use of the principleembodied in Faradays law. The
high frequency magnetic flux employed in in 10 ductive heating is produced generally by a cylindrical coil, through which a strong current of several hundred kilocycles is passed. The direction of the main flux-in the spacesurrounded by the coil and in the immediate external proxll imity thereto is parallel to the geometrical axis of the coil. If, now, a closed flat conducting contour or loop is placed in the path of the flux so that the plane of the contour or loop is perpendicular to the direction of the flux, a poweran ful electromotive force is induced in the loop. This electromotive force is directly proportionate to the size of the suriace inclosed by the contour of the loop. If, however, the contour is parallel to'the flux the induced electromotive force will 35 be negligible.
In accordance with my invention, 1 weld upon the metal part which is to be heated, a loop of conductive material in such position as may be desired to carry out the objects of this'invention. so
This loop may present a completely inclosed contour in itself, or it may be so attached to a metal part, as, for example, the grid of a radio vacuum tube, that the inclosed contour will be formed partly by the loop and partly by the coil 35 of the grid to which it is attached.
The, accompanying drawing shows the use of my invention to one particular form of apparatus to which it is'applicable, namely, a radio vacuum tube. Figure 1 shows the method of using it go for the purpose of driving out the occluded gases from the grid of the tube. Figure 2 shows the the same letters indicate similaf parts 0! the 59 device it will be observed that I have shown a well known type of radio vacuum tube in which the grid, A, is of elliptical coil construction. The plate electrode, 18, is also of the equally familiar box construction. I have found by actual exll periment that such'a structure presents considerable obstacles to the degasification of the electrodes by inductive heating. found in fact that when vacuum tubes having a grid and filament electrodes enclosed within a plate electrode have, been inductively heated to remove the gases therefrom, they differ widely in their behavior, showing in general a low electronic emission and poor amplifying properties.
This is particularly so when they are used as high frequency amplifiers. I have discovered that these defects are due to an insuflicient degasification of the grid electrode, the bars and supports of which, being shielded bythe surrounding plate, cannot be degasified properly by the present method of inductive heating. It is also particularly the case that in the present methods of inductive heating, the getter is volatilized too soon and if the heating is continued after such volatilizationmore gases are driven out of the metal parts which can no longer be counteracted by the getter and such gases therefore remain free within the bulb unless the exhaust pumps succeed in removing them.
-By Faradays law, the loop formed as above described when its plane is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic flux from the high frequency coil, will cause a thorough heating of the part to which it is attached. In Figure 1 it will be observed that the loop, 0, is mounted on the supports D and D" which may be extensions of the grid supports. The shape of the loop, however, is such that it extends outward from these supports over the plate the contour of which it in part follows but from which it is insulated.
The plane of this loop is parallel to the plane of the lateral section of the plate. The loop so mounted does not present in itself a closed contour since it is open at one side. The half of the coils of the grid at the open side of the loop, however, complete the contour so that the same is eflectively closed. When the high frequency coil is brought down over the bulb of such a tube' the magnetic flux induces a current in the plate which will bring it to a high heat in the same manner as is usual in the processes of such heating as well known at the present time. But it will also induce a current in the grid which will produce a similar heating of that electrode. If the loop were absent, this result would be prevented by the shielding effect of the plate. The loop, however, overcomes this shielding eifect by reason of the fact that the high frequency coil in duces a current in the grid by reason ofthe fact that the grid itself forms part of the closed contour of the loop. The current is, therefore, set up with equal effect in the grid and the plate simultaneously, and the result is an equal heating and degasification of both.
In Figure 2 it will be observed that the loop, instead of being mounted in a plane parallel to the plane of .the lateral section of the plate, is mounted in a plane which is perpendicular thereto.
This loop'forms in itself a closed contour and is welded to the plate'B at thepoint D. Upon the loop so mounted a small piece of metallic getter, or other material that it is desired to vaporize, may be attached to loop C at E. When the high frequency coil is applied over the bulb in a tube to which the loop has been mounted in this position the electrodes become heated while the loop itself remainspcomparatively cool and far below the vaporization point of the attached niaterial, and the electrodes are thus degasifled while I the metallic getter remains unvolatiliaed. blow,
It has been -in said body is shielded by eases the. degasification of the electrodes being completed, the high frequency'coil may be removed be attached to the metal parts of such electrical devices, the loops being-set at various angles to the plane of the lateral sectionof the part to which it is attached as shown in Fig. -3. In this form of the invention one loop 0 is mounted upon the grid electrode supports D, similar to the arrangement shown in Fig. l, and a second loop C is mounted upon the plate electrode support D such that the plane of loop C is disposed at an angle to the plane of loop C. By arranging the loops C and C in this manner they are individually susceptible to magnetic fields of different directions. Preferably the loop C carries a globule E of vaporizable material to be used as a getter.
