Abstract
An adjustable inductor, according to embodiments of the invention, includes a wire coil configured to mount on a first side of a conductive plate. The wire coil is conductive and is a plurality of windings. A core has a first portion and a second portion. The first and second portions are configured with a plurality of grooves for threading engagement with the plurality of windings of the wire coil. The threading engagement attaches the core to the plurality of windings of the wire coil, which results in varied inductance.
Claims7
A high voltage standoff adjustable inductor, comprising:
- a conductive plate having a first side, a second side, and an aperture extending through both said first side and said second side, said aperture having a threaded portion;
- a wire coil mounted on said first side of said conductive plate, wherein said wire coil has a plurality of windings;
- and
- a non-ferromagnetic core having a first portion and a second portion, wherein each of said first portion and said second portion are configured with a plurality of grooves for threading engagement with said plurality of windings of said wire coil, said threading engagement attaching said non-ferromagnetic core to said plurality of windings of said wire coil, wherein the ratio of the diameter of said first portion and the diameter of said second portion is about a 1.5:1 ratio.
