Resistor holder
This patent describes a resistor device for use with an electrostatic particle accelerator having apertured axially spaced apart electrode plates and annular insulators, each insulator being positioned between a pair of electrode plates. It comprises an elongate tubular housing formed of electrically conductive material, fixed end cap formed of conductive material and being connected to one end of the tubular housing, movable end cap formed of conductive material spaced radially inwardly and projecting interiorly of the tubular housing at the other end of the latter, and elongate cylindrical resistor element, means engaging the resistor element and positioning the latter in inwardly spaced concentric relation within the tubular housing, resilient means in the tubular housing engaging the fixed end cap and the resistor element for permitting yieldable axial movement of the latter relative to the housing, an annular conducting element electrically connected to the other end of the tubular housing and being spaced radially outwardly of the movable cap and defining an annular spark gap with the latter, and means electrically connecting the ends of the resistor element with the movable fixed end caps.
