before the description of the present invention proceeds , it is to be noted that like parts are designated by like reference numerals throughout the accompanying drawings . referring now to the drawings , there is shown in fig1 and fig2 a frequency regulating construction according to one embodiment of the present invention , which includes a solid mold type dielectric filter 1 composed of a dielectric block 2 , a base plate 9 for adjustment use , and a coupling terminal 10 for electrically and mechanically coupling the base plate 9 to the dielectric block 2 . the dielectric block 2 is made of , for example , titanium - oxide group dielectric sintered and molded into the shape of a solid rectangular parallelepiped , with four circular through holes 3 being formed in parallel at constant intervals . an inner conductive film 4 made of ag baked and fixed in the form of a thin film is formed on the inner peripheral face of each through hole 3 . also , an outer conductive film 5 and a short - circuit conductive film 6 ( fig2 ) made of ag baked on the dielectric block 2 are respectively formed on the four - side faces and the bottom face of the dielectric block 2 . the films 4 , 5 and 6 together form four dielectric resonators . it is to be noted that the short - circuit conductive film 6 short - circuits the inner and outer conductive films 4 and 5 to cause the four resonators to have a resonance mode of λ / 4 wavelength , so that four - stage filter comprising four 1 / 4 - wave resonators 7a through 7d is constructed . also , a cavity 8 for coupling use is formed through the dielectric block 3 between each pair of adjacent resonators 7a and 7b , 7b and 7c , and 7c and 7d of the dielectric block 2 . the cavity 8 is of rectangular shape in cross - section and has an exposed ceramic texture , with the conductive film not being formed on the inner face , so that the coupling degree of the respective resonators 7a through 7d depends upon the shape and size of the cavity 8 . the coupling terminal 10 is a metallic plate wound into cylindrical shape , with a small gap formed with some elasticity in the lower ( as shown in the drawings ) cylindrical portion 10a , and has a connecting projection upward 10b projected from the lower cylindrical portion . on both sides of the projection 10b are support - member portions 10c bent transversely . the cylindrical portion 10a of the coupling terminal 10 is inserted into the open end 1a of the through hole 3 of the dielectric block 2 , with the inserting portion adhering to the inner face of the inner conductive film 4 by expanding due to its elasticity . the base plate 9 for adjustment use is placed on the top faces and supported by the support - member portions 10c of the coupling terminals 10 . the base plate 9 for adjustment use is a dielectric base plate made of , for example , alumina ceramic group . rectangular electrodes 11a through 11d for frequency adjustment use are formed respectively in the positions above the respective resonators 7a through 7d , on the top face of the insulating base plate . the respective electrodes 11a through 11d are baked and secured , for example , after ag has been printed by a photographic printing process . the shape and size are provided so that the same resonance frequency is obtained all the respective resonators 7a through 7d . the connecting projection 10b of each coupling terminal 10 is projected from approximately the central portion of the respective electrodes 11a through 11d for frequency adjustment use , with the projecting portions being connected by , for example , soldering with the electrodes 11a through 11d for adjustment use . it is to be noted that reference numerals 9a and 9b are input and output electrodes for external connection use . the functions and advantages effects of the present embodiment will be described hereinafter . in the frequency adjustment construction of the present embodiment ( fig1 and fig2 ), the shapes and sizes of the electrodes 11a through 11d can be readily controlled since they are formed on the top face of the base plate 9 for adjustment use , so that the resonance frequency of the respective resonators 7a through 7d may be conformed . in this case , the size accuracy may be considerably improved , as compared with a prior art product in which the electrode for adjustment use is directly formed on the end face of the open side of the conventional dielectric block . this is because , in the prior art devices , the end face on the open side of the dielectric body is generally rough on its surface . this makes it uneconomical because of the difficulty of handling the dielectric body , and the increase in the number of manufacturing steps , and so on , if an attempt is made to smooth out the surface roughness of the open end face with a grinding operation or the like . also , the inner conductive film formed on the inner peripheral face of the through hole is likely to rise upward , so it is hard to improve the size accuracy when the electrode for adjustment use is formed directly on the dielectric block 2 . in contrast , as the construction of the present embodiment has its electrodes 11a through 11d for adjustment use formed on the adjustment base - plate 9 which is a separate member from the dielectric block 2 , it is easier to smooth out the surface roughness of the base plate 9 and it is possible to adopt various steps such as photographic printing process to easily improve the size accuracy in the formation of the electrodes 11a through lid , so that the disadvantageous influences caused by the rising of the above - described inner conductive film in prior art devices are removed . as a result , the size accuracy of the electrodes 11a through 11d for adjustment use may be considerably improved , the resonance frequency of the respective resonators 7a through 7d may be conformed with better accuracy , and productivity may be improved by thus limiting the number of inferior products . also , in the above - described prior art construction , the connection between the inner conductive film and the adjustment electrode plated directly on the open end face of the dielectric block can become unstable because of cracks and so on that may occur in the top - end corner portion of the through hole of the dielectric block , thus causing the dispersion and variation in the frequency of the relevant resonator . in contrast , in the present embodiment , the inner conductive film 4 is connected with the electrodes 11a through 11d for adjustment use through the coupling terminal 10 , so negative influences are not caused by cracks and so on of the dielectric block 2 . the connection is reliable and stable , the result is that the problem of frequency dispersion is not caused . furthermore , in the present embodiment , as the electrodes for adjustment use are formed in a predetermined pattern on the base plate 9 for adjustment , any frequency dispersion that is caused by the shapes of the respective resonators 7a through 7d and the coupling terminal 10 may be absorbed by the pattern of the electrodes 11a through 11d for adjustment . in the embodiment of fig1 and 2 , the base plate 9 for adjustment use is supported and positioned by the formation of the support projection 10c on the coupling terminal 10 . a modified embodiment using a different support method for supporting the base plate 9 for adjustment use will now be disclosed . fig3 and fig4 show an embodiment , wherein the sides of a case 12 are inwardly cut , form a plurality of upward - facing support members 12a ( fig4 ) for supporting the base plate 9 . the case 12 accommodates the dielectric filter 1 of a solid mold type in this embodiment , the coupling terminal 13 which has an inserting portion 13a ( fig4 ) and a connecting portion 13b ( fig4 ) is metallic and has a rod - shape , with the earth portion 9c formed on both the edge portions of the base plate 9 for adjustment use being soldered near the top end of the case 12 . also , in the above - described embodiment , the adjustment electrode was formed only on the single face of the base plate for frequency adjustment use , but the electrode may be formed on both the faces . also , although the explanation was given about the case of the filter having the cavity for coupling use , the present invention may be , of course , applied even to the filter having a conventional means for coupling between resonators different and free from the cavity for coupling use . furthermore , although only the electrode for frequency adjustment was formed on the base plate for adjustment in the above embodiment , an electrode film which achieves other functions may be added on the basic plate as shown in fig5 and fig6 . fig5 ( a ) through 5 ( c ) show an embodiment , wherein the electrode 11 for adjustment use is formed , furthermore , the adjustment electrodes 14a ( fig5 a ), 14b ( fig5 b ), and 14c ( fig5 c ) for regulating the coupling degree of each resonator are formed . the electrodes 14b and 14c are grounded . it is to be noted that the electrodes 14a through 14c for regulating the coupling degree of fig5 ( a ) through 5 ( c ) may be properly combined . also , fig6 ( a ) and 6 ( b ) show an embodiment , wherein electrodes 15a and 15b for polarized use are formed to couple the respective resonators every other one to steepen an attenuation characteristic by forming frequency response poles . needless to say , it is possible to combine the electrode of fig6 with that of fig5 . as is clear from the foregoing description , according to the frequency adjustment construction of the present invention , electrodes for adjustment use are formed on the base plate for adjustment use , which is a separate unit from the dielectric block , and they are connected with the respective resonators through the coupling members . the result is that the size accuracy of the electrodes for adjustment is improved to considerably improve the adjustment accuracy of the frequency of each resonator . also , the connection between the electrodes for adjustment use and the inner conductive films of the respective resonators is positively stabilized to improve the stability of the characteristics . although the present invention has been fully described in connection with the preferred embodiments thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings , it is to be noted that various changes and modifications are apparent to those skilled in the art . such changes and modifications are to be understood as included within the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims unless they depart therefrom .
