Abstract (en)

[origin: US2002109559A1] A waveguide fitting for connecting in particular a rectangular waveguide to an elliptical waveguide can be assembled particularly easily and yet provides a very low-reflection connection if the fitting at least at one end is conductively provided with the first section of a sleeve of which the second section is designed to receive the end region of the waveguide to be connected and which is divided at least in this second section by narrow capillary-action axial slots into radially springing lamellae which, after insertion of the waveguide, abut against the outer wall thereof, and in addition the inner wall at least of the second section of the sleeve is designed to receive a solder deposit. To make the connection, it is then necessary only to heat the whole junction with an external heat source until the solder in the solder deposits melts and fills the gaps between the inner wall of this section of the sleeve and the outer wall of the waveguide.
