Method of joining current conducting components of wave guide elements and producing of the same

摘要

A wave guide is formed from a plurality of internally coated plates whose internal coating forms the current-conducting surfaces of the wave guide. The plates are welded together, their corners being welding beams trained through one of the plates at a location offset from the coatings to form a melt which bridges each pair of plates to fuse them together. Preferably the energy causes some melting and fusion of the coatings to braze the adjacent coatings together.
