1,048,144. Acoustic delay lines. FRIDEN Inc. July 10, 1964 [Sept. 30, 1963 (2)], No. 28620/64. Heading H3U. In order to improve the wave shape of the output signal of a magnetostrictive transducer in a delay line the magnetostrictive member is subjected to a bias magnetic field which varies along the member according to a desired pattern. As shown, Fig. 1, a torsional transmission member 14 of a delay line is connected at one end to two magnetostrictive ribbons 12 extending through driving coils 10. The bias magnetic field is produced by a permanent magnet 16 supported in an adjustable block 18. The block is movable lengthwise of the coils by screws 20 in a slide 22 and is movable towards or away from the coils by movement of the slide on a base 24. In a modification (Fig. 3, not shown), the bias magnetic field is produced by an oblique permanent magnet 27 supported in an adjustable block 29. The curve 58 of Fig. 6 (not shown) is a plot of the sign and field intensity for the modification of Fig. 3, the permanent magnet having the reference 30 and the coils 10 of Fig. 1 having the reference 34. Corresponding curves for Fig. 1 are given in Figs. 7, 8 (not shown) for the conditions when the magnet 16 is centrally disposed relatively to the coils 10 and when it is laterally offset. In a further modification (Fig. 10, not shown) the bias magnetic field is produced by two spaced magnets 82, 83 of like polarity to give a field intensity curve 84 . . . 87 along the coil axis 80. Fig. 13 (not shown) gives a plot 88 of field intensity along a coil axis 90 for two unlike magnets 92, 93 whilst Figs. 14 and 15 (not shown) give plots 89 and 110 for three magnets 91 . . . 93 and four magnets 101 . . . 104, respectively. |
