DEFINITION

Classification: 313/627

Having electrode heated by space discharge current:

(under subclass 567) Subject matter wherein the electrode is bombarded by a charged particle of the ionized gas or vapor which constitutes the electrical discharge within the envelope of the tube which is attracted to the electrode by an electrical force.

(1) Note. The gas or vapor discharge is not restricted to the discharge between the main electrodes of the tube.

(2) Note. All or part of the electrode is of therminonically active material.

(3) Note. The discharge may be from electrons or ions.
