Helix resonator filter
First Claim
1. A helix resonator filter assembly, comprising:
- at least one helically wound electrical conductor supported by an insulating member, said insulating member having an insulating portion extending beyond an end of said at least one helically wound electrical conductor;
an extrusion formed housing defining an interior space and having guide means extending into said interior space, said at least one helically wound electrical conductor and supporting insulating member being disposed within said interior space;
said guide means including a pair of guide members that are extrusions and are free of bent portions, said guide members each extending within said interior space and being configured and spaced apart for guiding said insulating portion therebetween.

Abstract
A filter construction known in the art comprises at least a number of helix resonators (1) and an insulation material plate, the projections (2a) projecting from the rectangular lower part (2) whereof are provided inside the helix resonators and thus supporting them. The filter housing (6), defined by a cover (8) and the side walls, is provided with compartments, so that each compartment includes a helical resonator. As taught by the invention, at least two guides (71) projecting from the surface are extruded in the same phase as the compartment on the inner surface of the cover, wherebetween the tip part of the projection (2a) supporting the resonator enters when the filter is assembled. The guide can be a hemisphere or a rib-like bulge.
