Image Shuguang 845.jpg thumb 150px right A modern China Chinese made 845 tube The 845 power triode is a radio frequency radio transmitter transmitting vacuumtube which can also be used as an valve audio amplifier audio amplifier and modulation tube. Typically, the plate electrode plate is machined from solid graphite in order to accommodate high Electric current current dissipation up to 100 watt s and voltage . Some current production 845 tubes have metal plates. The 845 tube has a bayonet mount and Thorium dioxide thoriated Electrical filament filament s which glow like lightbulb s when powered up. The glass envelope is about 2 5 16 in diameter and 6  inches tall, with the a total tube height of about 7 7 8  inches. It was first released by RCA in 1931.

FORCETOC In vacuumtube technology, HT or high tension describes the main power supply to the circuit, which produces the current between anode and cathode . It is also known as the plate supply or voltage, B battery supply, or simply labeled B on circuit diagram s, from the days of battery vacuumtube battery powered circuitry . EHT or extra high tension similarly describes the accelerating voltage for a cathode ray tube such as used in a television , computer monitor or cathode ray oscilloscope . The HT supply circuit most commonly provides a Electrical polarity positive voltage of some hundreds of volts to the anode or plate and in later circuits also to the screen grid , with the cathode running at near ground or chassis potential. The main exception to this was in the case of tubes with water cooled anodes, once used for radio transmission , electric furnace s and similar applications. These tubes used a negative HT supply to the cathode, so that the anode could run near ground DC potential but typically at many hundreds of volts of radio frequency RF . Other power supplies to vacuumtube circuits include LT, low tension or Battery vacuumtube A battery A battery , the supply to the heater filament s. If directly heated vacuum tubes are used, there might be several of these. For example, in mains powered equipment directly heated full wave rectifier tubes such as the 5Y3 commonly provide the HT supply, and required a devoted, often 5V, heater circuit.

Wunderlich refers to a series of vacuumtube s introduced in the early 1930s. Wunderlichs were designed to be used as full wave detector radio detectors in amplitude modulation AM radio receivers. However, because of their unusual design, they were rarely used in commercially manufactured receivers. The tube is named for its inventor, Norman Wunderlich. Structure The Wunderlich tube is a twin medium mu triode . The tube has two identical control grids that operate in tandem with a common heater, indirectly heated cathode and plate. Function Typically, the two grids are connected to opposite ends of the center tapped secondary of the final intermediate frequency IF transformer. The center tap of the secondary is then connected to ground through a parallel connected resistor and capacitor circuit. This causes the tube to act as a full wave grid leak detector. In some circuits, the center tap also provides automatic gain control AVC bias voltage to the converter and or IF amplifier. Some Wunderlichs, like the Wunderlich B, have a diode plate or a second grid that provide AVC bias voltage.

inline date April 2009 for vacuum workholding systems vacuum table File Vacuum bed 18.jpg thumb Vacuum bed A vacuum bed is a device sometimes used in BDSM play. A person is placed in a latex envelope spanned by a frame and a suction pump or floor vacuum removes most of the air in the envelope. The frame can be either a simple rectangle of pierced pvc pipes, joined by pvc joints, or three dimensional frames of various sizes, with a similar pvc construction. There are several ways that the vacuum bed can be designed to facilitate breathing. The most common is a tube running from outside of the vacuum bed into the person s mouth. A second option is a reinforced hole that is positioned so that the mouth protrudes. A third option is a reinforced gasket through which one forces the entire head. Incorporating a related fetish, some vacuum beds use a gas mask to facilitate respiration. The vacuum bed is both a bondage and sensation device. The user is unable to move significantly although some wiggling is possible , and is unable to speak or see, depending on the breathing hole used. In addition, though, the sensation of the vacuum bed itself, as well as any other play stroking, percussion, vibrations are quite pleasurable, and some are much more intense than what would be experienced without the vacuum bed. The vacuum bed must be used with the aid of another person, as the user cannot control the vacuum itself, nor escape the vacuum bed unaided. References Margot D.

P Blakiston s & Son ref How it worked Essentially, the Keidel vacuum consists of a sealed ampule with or without a culture medium . Connected to the ampule was a short rubber tube with a needle at the end, using a small glass tube as a cap. The insertion of the needle into the vein crushes the ampule, thus creating a vacuum and forcing blood into the container. Typically, a prominent vein in the forearm such as the median cubital vein would suffice, although the Keidel vacuum can take blood for any prominent peripheral vein. This concept did not become popular until during World War II , when quick and efficient first aid care was necessary in the battle field.

A vacuum arc can arise when the surfaces of metal electrode s in contact with a good vacuum begin to emit electron s either through heating thermionic emission or via an electric field that is sufficient to cause field electron emission . Once initiated, a vacuum arc can persist since the freed particles gain kinetic energy from the electric field, heating the metal surfaces through high speed particle collisions. This process can create an incandescent cathode spot which frees more particles, thereby sustaining the arc. At sufficiently high currents an incandescent anode spot may also be formed. Electrical discharge in vacuum is important for certain types of vacuumtube s and for high voltage vacuum switch es. The thermionic vacuum arc TVA is a new type of plasma source, which generates a pure metal and ceramic vapour plasma containing ions with a directed energy. TVA discharges can be ignited in high vacuum conditions between a heated cathode electron gun and an anode tungsten crucible containing the material. The accelerated electron beam, incident on the anode, heats the crucible, together with its contents, to a high temperature. After establishing a steadystate density of the evaporating anode material atoms, and when the voltage applied is high enough, a bright discharge is ignited between the electrodes.
