Claims
- 1. A cathode assembly of a magnetron for generating microwaves, comprising:
- a lower end shield having a center through hole for passing a center lead, wherein a flange is provided at a lower portion of the lower end shield;
- a filament in contact with a top portion of the lower end shield; and
- an insulator supporting said lower end shield with said flange bonded to an upper surface of said insulator, the insulator including
- a ring-shaped metallized portion at the upper surface of the insulator for serving to bond the lower end shield to the upper surface of the insulator and join a side lead to the lower end shield,
- a first support hole formed in a center portion of the insulator for receiving a center lead, and a second support hole formed through the ring-shaped metallized portion for receiving the side lead.
- 2. A cathode assembly of a magnetron for generating microwaves as claimed in claim 1, wherein said filament surrounds a top portion of said lower end shield and a portion of said center through hole.
- 3. A cathode assembly of a magnetron for generating microwaves as in claim 2, wherein an upper end shield is positioned in contact with said filament and positioned for being joined to said center lead passing through said center through hole.
- 4. A cathode assembly of a magnetron for generating microwaves as in claim 1 further comprising a lower magnetic pole of a magnetron having an opening, wherein said insulator is mounted in an opening in the lower magnetic pole.
- 5. A cathode assembly of a magnetron for generating microwaves as in claim 4 further comprising a lower magnetic pole of a magnetron having an opening, wherein said insulator is securely mounted in the opening in the lower magnetic pole.
