US 2002/0180363 A1 · Magnetron

Abstract

A magnetron including a tubular metallic container which is air-tightly connected to an anode, cathode leads for supporting a cathode with filaments being disposed in a central axial portion of the anode, a stem insulator formed with through holes through which the cathode leads pass, and external terminals formed with planar portions which are air-tightly connected to a surface of the stem insulator opposite to a surface facing the tubular metallic container and with connecting portions which are air-tightly connected to the cathode leads. The connecting portions are arranged to be bent in an axial direction of the cathode leads. It is possible to exhibit the effect of preventing vacuum break from occurring by oxidation or the like since the increase in the area of the connecting portions will result in elongation of the distance between the end portions of the connecting portions and the through holes.
