ELECTRICAL COIL.
Original application led February l0, 1919, Serial No. 275,989. Divided and this application illed December 18, 1923. Serial No. 681,328.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, MoR'roN W. STERNS, citizen of the United States, residing at Jamaica, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Electrical Coils, of which the following is a specification.
This application is a division of my prior application Serialv No. 275,989, led February 10, 1919.
The invention relates to electrical coils and has for its object to provide a coil having a minimum high frequency resistance and low distributed capacity, and which is therefore particularly adapted for radio instruments. A further object of the invention is to provide a self-supporting coil which can be wound by machinery and thus produced rapidly and cheaply.
My prior application covers several different forms of coilsin which the successive turns of wire are wound diagonally back and forth and spaced apart in the layers to reduce the high frequency resistance and distributed capacity; the present application relating more particularly to a coil of this type in which the corresponding turns of successive layers in the coil are laterally cifset from each other whereby to space the turns of the overlying layers apart. In order that the construction and method of winding the particular form of coil covered by this application may be clearly under stood Vit is deemed advisable to lllustrate and briefly describe herein the rincipal form of coil which is shown and escribed in detail in my prior application.
Referring to the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the principal form of coil covered by my prior application';
Figure 2is a.` fragmentary development.
of a portion of the winding as illustrated in Figure 1',
Figure 3 1s fragmentary development of a form of winding to which the present application is particularly directed; and
Figure 4 is a fragmentary development of a modified form of winding in accordance v with the present invention.-
Figure 5 is an enlarged fragmentary cross-section of acoil embodyin the present invention, this section being ta en substantially on a line indicated 'at 5, 5 inFigure 3, and showing four turns of wire instead of three as in Figure 3.
Referring first to Figure 1 of the drawings, the form of coil designated therein by the numeral 1 is wound with the turns cf wire spaced apart and with corresponding turns of successive layers overlying each other so that diamond shaped air spaces exist and extend substantially radially vfrom the center of the coil outward to its periphery. In other words, corresponding turns of wire in successive layers of the coil lie directly above each other, when the coil is viewed lookin straight down at right an les to its axis. The coil 1 may be woun on any suitable core or drum 2, such as a bakelite or paper tube. In winding, the wire 3 may be started at a point 4, see Figure 2, and fed diagonally across the drum 2 to a point 5 at the opposite edge of said drum. It then turns back and feeds dia onally across the drum, crossing over the rst turn at 6. Reaching the edge 2l ata point 7, a slight distance in advance of the starting point 4, it turns and Starts across the drum again, crossing the first turn oncemore at 8, and reaching the edge E?.b at 9. This method of disposing the wire in place may go on until the desired number of turns are obtained, the turns of wire being spaced apart as before noted so as to form air cells 16 therebetween as shown in Figure 1. This method of winding, as explained in my previous application, will reduce the distributed capacity caused by proximity and parallelism of the turns inversely as the square of the distance between the turns.
In the construction thus far described, and as illustrated in Figure 1, the turns of wire of a given direction in successive layers lie directly over the corresponding turns of the same direction in preceding layers. It is obvious, however, that in winding the coil the turns of each layer need not be placed directly over corresponding turns of preceding layers but may be positioned slightly to one side or the other thereof. That is, the overlying turns of a given direction may be laterally oli'set one in relation to another from the center of the coil outwardly. One form of coil wound in accordance with this latter method is illustrated in Figures 3 andv 4 of the drawings.
In these views, 30 designates a turn of an outer layer and 31 a turn running in the same direction in the layer beneath, the turn 31 being shown as offset to one side of the turn 30; while 32 indicates still another inner turn of the same direction in another layer which is offset relative to the turn 31. In Figure 5 the numeral 33 indicates an additional turn of wir; not shown in Figure 3 which extends in the same direction as the turns 30, 31 and 32. The numeral 34 indicates the turns of wire which are crossed by the turns 30, 31, 32 and 33.
Figure 3 is a diagrammatic development of the winding and illustrates several turns of a given direction as offset one from another a distance equal substantially to the thickness or diameter of the wire, but it is obvious that the turns may be offset to a greater extent if desired. In machine winding the spacing between the turns and the off-setting of the corresponding turns of different layers is regulated by adjusting the ratio between the speed of the rotating drum or core on which the winding is performed and theA speed of the traversing guide which feeds the wire in place on the coil.
Figure 4 illustrates diagrammatically another modified form of winding having the corresponding turns of wire in successive iayers laterally offset, or in some cases they may be staggered, in relationv to each other. In this form of the invention the offsetting or staggering of the turns may be accomplished by shifting the core or drum back and forth in the direction of its axis during the winding. For instance, the core 17 shown in Figure 4 may be moved bodily in the direction indicated by the arrow 20 during its rotation while the wire is boing wound back and forth in helical turns extending diagonally thereof. In this way the successive turns of the wire will be advanced acrossthe drum or core 17 in the direction of its axis, as indicated at 21, 22 and 23 in Figure 4, so that the turns extending in a given direction in each layer will be offset to one side or the other of the turns of the same direction in preceding layers. This last-described method of winding may be used to good advantage when a relatively wide or long coil is desired.
The relative posit-ion of the turns in this form of coil will be understood by reference to Figure 4 where seven turns designated 18a, 18h, 18g, 18d, 18e, 18f, and 18g are illustrated as extending first in one direction and then in another across a portion of the width of the core 17, with two of the next succeeding turns 23a and 23" crossing turns 18, 18d and 18e at points as, y and z, between the points f and the crossing points of t e first series of turns referred to, I n this way the turns of which represent successive layers are disposed between the turns extending in the same direction in preceding layers.
It has been found that the particular coil herein shown and described in several modifications has a very low distributed capacity, due to the fact that in addition to the spacing of the turns in each layer the corresponding turns of adjacent layers are offset from each other and therefore do not lie as close together as when corresponding turns in successive layers are wound directly above each other.
Furthermore, in this form of coil the wires of one layer cross the wires of the preceding layer between the points at which the latter are supported, so that there is a tendency for the unsupported portions of the wires to be drawn inwardl toward the axis of the coil, as clearly in icated in Figure 5 thus producing a more compact structure. Stated briefly, the turns will be drawn closer to the axis of the coil and thereby permit more turns of the wire to be made in a coil of a given cross sectional area 0r volume than would be the case when the corresponding or parallel turns of the different layers are located one above the other.
Having thus described the invention what is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is:
l. An electrical coil comprising successive windings of insulated conductor disposed in diagonal convolutions, the turns of each layer being disposed at an angle to those of the next succeeding layer and at an 4angle to the axis of the coil, the turns of the conductor in the same layer being spaced apart and the turns in the alternate layers being offset laterally and arranged in staggered relation in a vertical plane with the other corresponding llayers above or below.
