Abstract

A high voltage transformer is provided for the voltage employed in the line deflection of an electron beam in a television receiver. The secondary high voltage winding is inserted into a case via an opening running parallel to the axis of the primary and secondary winding and is disposed in the case separate from the primary winding and is surrounded by a cast plastic resin. Preferably, the secondary winding body snaps into elastically supported protrusions disposed at the case. The plastic resin is filled into position through said opening. The high voltage connection is immersed into the plastic resin and is then led outwardly.

Claims

1. A transformer for generating a high voltage for control of an electron beam comprising a second winding body comprising a secondary winding for providing a high voltage;

a case surrounding the second winding and having a second opening in an end wall located at a plane disposed parallel to the axis of the secondary winding for allowing the insertion of the second winding body into the case through the second opening;

an electrical connection for the second winding body and running through said second opening;

a first winding body comprising a primary winding disposed concentrically to the second winding body; and

means on the edge of said second winding body providing a seal for the liquid plastic resin during filling of the case and preventing the resin from extending to the first winding body such that the first winding body can be exchanged or inserted into the second winding body;

a cast of synthetic resin disposed in the case and surrounding the second winding body.

2. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1

wherein the first winding body further comprises auxiliary windings.

3. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1

wherein the first winding body remains with its windings outside of the cast area.

4. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1 wherein said means comprises inwardly directed protrusions disposed in the end walls in axial direction of the case, which protrusions provide a catch-locked position for the second winding body.

5. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1 further comprising

electrical connections of the second winding body for the focussing voltage and the screen grid voltage, which electrical connections are fed outwardly through the plastic resin and which are adapted to be connected to a potentiometer unit.

6. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1 further comprising

a ferrite core disposed inside of the primary winding.

7. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 6 wherein the ferrite core comprises two sections, which are inserted into the primary winding from opposite sides in axial direction and which comprise Ushaped sections running outside of the case and joining together to provide a substantially continuous magnetic flux.

8. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 4 wherein the protrusions are elastically supported to allow for motion during the snap-in type insertion of the second winding body.

9. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1 wherein the synthetic resin is a member of the group consisting of epoxide, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, crosslinked polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, fluorinated ethylene propylene, polyvinyliden fluoride, silicone rubber, polychloroprene rubber, butyl rubber, polyurethane, polyamide, polyimide, polyester, polyalkene, polysulfone, and mixtures thereof.

10. The transformer for generating a high voltage according to claim 1 wherein the synthetic resin has a loss factor at 1000 Hertz of less than about 0.02 and wherein the dielectric strength of the synthetic resin is at least about 400 volts per millimeter.

11. A method for the production of the high voltage transformers comprising

producing a second winding body comprising a secondary winding to provide a high voltage;

molding a case for supporting the second winding body which has a second opening in an end wall located at a plane disposed parallel to the axis of the secondary winding for allowing the insertion of the second winding body into the case through the second opening;

inserting the second winding body into the case through the second opening and where an electrical connection for the second winding body runs through said second opening;

sealing means on the edge of said second winding body sealing said winding body against flow of the liquid plastic resin during filling of the case and preventing the resin from extending to a first winding body comprising a primary winding such that the first winding body can be exchanged or inserted into the second winding body; and

filling the area around the second winding body inside the case with synthetic resin material.

12. The method for production of high voltage transformers according to claim 11 further comprising inserting a first winding body into the case and and coaxially into the second winding body via a first opening disposed in a wall located at an axial end of the case, wherein the first winding body further comprises auxiliary windings.

13. The method for the production of the high voltage transformers according to claim 12 further comprising
