Description

La présente invention a pour objet un boîtier pour coupleur directif coaxial, notamment pour des fréquences comprises entre 30 et 18000 MHz.The present invention relates to a housing for a coaxial directional coupler, in particular for frequencies between 30 and 18000 MHz.

Les boîtiers connus présentent généralement une structure compliquée, notamment de nombreuses fixations par vis, ce qui favorise les fuites des courants à haute fréquence.Known housings generally have a complicated structure, in particular numerous screw fastenings, which promotes leaks of high frequency currents.

De plus, ils comportent des cavités dont l'usinage précis entraine un prix de revient élevé.In addition, they include cavities whose precise machining results in a high cost price.

Par ailleurs, l'étude du bottier pour coupleur pour adaptation aux guides d'ondes à ruban en fonction de la fréquence se révèle compliquée dans chaque cas particulier.In addition, the study of the coupler case for adaptation to the ribbon waveguides as a function of the frequency turns out to be complicated in each particular case.

La présente invention permet de remédier aux inconvénients précédemment schématisés.The present invention overcomes the drawbacks previously shown.

L'invention a donc pour objet un bottier pour coupleur directif coaxial, caractérisé par le fait qu'il comporte un corps présentant une section en forme de U, chacune des parois latérales dudit corps de bottier comportant deux ouvertures, une ouverture d'une des parois étant disposée en vis-à-vis de l'ouverture de l'autre paroi, un couvercle apte à obturer la partie supérieure dudit corps de boîtier, ainsi que deux embouts pouvant obturer les extrémités de l'ensemble corps de boîtier couvercleThe subject of the invention is therefore a case for a coaxial directional coupler, characterized in that it comprises a body having a U-shaped section, each of the side walls of said case body having two openings, an opening of one of the walls being disposed opposite the opening of the other wall, a cover capable of sealing the upper part of said housing body, as well as two end pieces that can close the ends of the housing body cover assembly

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortent de la description qui suit donnée en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • La figure 1 représente une vue éclatée en perspective des organes constituant le boîtier pour coupleur selon l'invention.
  • La figure 2 représente lesdits organes mutuellement assemblés et formant le boîtier pour coupleur selon l'invention.
Other characteristics and advantages of the invention appear from the description which follows, given with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 shows an exploded perspective view of the members constituting the housing for coupler according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 shows said mutually assembled members and forming the housing for coupler according to the invention.

En référence à la figure 1, le boîtier 1 pour coupleur directif coaxial selon l'invention comporte un corps 20 présentant une section en forme de U. Chacune des parois latérales du U comporte deux ouvertures 2, sensiblement vers l'extrémité, une ouverture de l'une des parois étant en vis-à-vis de l'ouverture de l'autre paroi. Une rainure 3 est ménagée à la partie supérieure de chaque paroi latérale au-dessus des ouvertures 2.With reference to FIG. 1, the housing 1 for a coaxial directional coupler according to the invention comprises a body 20 having a U-shaped section. Each of the side walls of the U has two openings 2, substantially towards the end, an opening of one of the walls being opposite the opening of the other wall. A groove 3 is made in the upper part of each side wall above the openings 2.

Par ailleurs deux alésages 4 sont prévus aux extrémités du fond du corps de bottier 20.Furthermore, two bores 4 are provided at the ends of the bottom of the boot body 20.

La référence 5 désigne un couvercle présentant des rebords 6 aptes à s'engager dans les rainures 3 du corps de boîtier 20, ainsi que deux alésages 7 à ses extrémités et venant en vis-à-vis des alésages 4 du fond du corps du boîtier 20 lorsque le couvercle 5 est mis en place.The reference 5 designates a cover having flanges 6 able to engage in the grooves 3 of the housing body 20, as well as two bores 7 at its ends and coming opposite the bores 4 of the bottom of the housing body 20 when the cover 5 is put in place.

On a référencé en 8 deux embouts destinés à obturer les extrémités de l'ensemble corps de boîtier-couvercle. Chacun de ces embouts comporte un corps 9 percé d'un alésage 10 et pouvant être introduit entre le corps de boîtier 20 et le couvercle 5, et un rebord 11 venant en appui sur les extrémités de l'ensemble corps de boîtier-couvercle. Lesdits alésages 10 sont disposés en vis-à-vis des alésages 4 et 7 du corps du bottier 20 et du couvercle 5 respectivement.There have been referenced at 8 two end pieces intended to close off the ends of the housing body-cover assembly. Each of these end pieces comprises a body 9 pierced with a bore 10 and which can be introduced between the housing body 20 and the cover 5, and a flange 11 bearing on the ends of the housing body-cover assembly. Said bores 10 are arranged opposite the bores 4 and 7 of the body of the boot 20 and the cover 5 respectively.

L'ensemble des organes précédemment dévrit est serré au moyen de douilles 12 introduites dans les alésages 4, 7 et 10 ménagés dans les organes du boîtier.All of the above-described members are tightened by means of sockets 12 introduced into the bores 4, 7 and 10 formed in the bodies of the housing.

La figure 2 illustre le boîtier monté.Figure 2 illustrates the mounted housing.

A la manière connue chaque ouverture 2 est couplée à un connecteur et assujettie à ce dernier au moyen de petites ouvertures 13 disposés de part et d'autre de chaque ouverture 2 et pouvant recevoir une vis ou autre moyen de fixation.In the known manner, each opening 2 is coupled to a connector and subject to the latter by means of small openings 13 arranged on either side of each opening 2 and capable of receiving a screw or other fixing means.

Le dispositif selon l'invention présente une très grande simplicité mécanique et les pertes électriques se trouvent donc réduites à une valeur minimale.The device according to the invention has very great mechanical simplicity and the electrical losses are therefore reduced to a minimum value.

En outre il réduit la durée des études nécessaires pour réaliser un couplage donné.In addition, it reduces the duration of the studies necessary to carry out a given coupling.

Par ailleurs son prix de revient est particulièrement bas, de l'ordre du sixième vis-à-vis des boîtiers pour coupleurs conventionnels.Furthermore, its cost price is particularly low, of the order of a sixth vis-à-vis the housings for conventional couplers.

Il trouve des applications avantageuses dans les lignes à air, les boîtiers d'insertion, les atténuateurs, les boîtiers pour micro électronique, les circuits hybrides et autres.It finds advantageous applications in the lines air, insertion boxes, attenuators, micro electronic boxes, hybrid circuits and others.

Bien que le dispositif qui vient d'être décrit paraisse le plus avantageux pour la mise en oeuvre de.l'invention dans une situation technique particulière on comprendra que diverses modifications peuvent lui être apportées sans sortir du cadre de l'invention certains de ses éléments pouvant être remplacés par d'autres susceptibles d'y assurer la même fonction technique ou une fonction technique équivalente.Although the device which has just been described seems the most advantageous for the implementation of the invention in a particular technical situation, it will be understood that various modifications can be made to it without departing from the scope of the invention, certain of its elements. may be replaced by others capable of performing the same technical function or an equivalent technical function.
