Filed:

Sep 29, 1972

Appl. No.:

5/293679

Inventors:

Edwin R. Kolb - Chatham Township NJ
Robert M. Horvath - Quincy IL

Assignee:

Harris-Intertype Corporation - Cleveland OH

International Classification:

G06K 1520

US Classification:

340324AD

Abstract:

Apparatus for forming graphical configurations, such as alphanumeric characters, on a radiant energy surface, such as the face of a cathode ray tube, with an energy beam. The apparatus includes a path segment length command means which serves to provide a series of sets of coded command signals. Each set of coded command signals defines the length of an associated path segment of a path to be traced on the surface. A beam controller serves to deflect the beam to trace a predetermined scan path on the surface starting from a preselected starting location. The path includes a plurality of successive path segments which are of lengths dependent upon associated successive sets of coded command signals. These path segments alternate between being inside and outside of the area of a configuration to be formed on the surface. The beam is controlled such that it is continuously blanked while tracing the segments which are outside of the configuration area.

Abstract:

Disclosed is a method of producing gapped ferrite toroids without the necessity of machining. This allows for the highly efficient production of tightly controlled energy storage magnetic components and stable inductors. Composite toroids of the invention have a wide range of applications, and could be used as substitutes for more costly and less operationally efficient magnetic components. This invention provides a method of producing composite toroids that include a nonmagnetic gap, by utilizing a layer-forming method, such as tape casting, and subsequently co-firing a monolithic composite magnetic and non-magnetic ceramic structure produced by stacking the layers. The toroids are punched from the stacked layers prior to final firing. This novel method provides a means for producing very well controlled gapped structures.
