Definitions

  • the invention relates to a colour television display cathode-ray tube in which a substantially rectangular colour selection electrode is arranged in the proximity of the display screen and is supported by a plurality of supporting members which are secured on the one hand to the periphery of the colour selection electrode and are each supported on the other hand in a cavity provided in a thickened part of the glass tube wall.
  • an accurate and readily detachable fastening of the colour selection electrode is obtained by providing each supporting member with resilient parts which press against the side Walls of the cavity and are clamped and fixed therein.
  • the resilient parts may form part of a substantially pin-shaped body which is arranged parallel to the tube axis and is clamped and fixed in a cavity likewise extending parallel to the tub axis. If required, steps may be taken to ensure that, after the window and the cone of the bulb of the tube have been joined, the pin-shaped bodies are fixed in the cavities.
  • FIGURES 1, 2 and 3 show parts of a window of a cathode-ray tube according to the invention
  • FIGURE 4 is an embodiment of a suspension member for a shadow mask
  • FIGURE 5 is a sectional view of part of a cathode-ray tube after the window and the cone have been joined
  • FIGURE 6 is a similar sectional view of another embodiment according to the invention.
  • FIGURE 7 is an elevation of the open side of a cone of the embodiment of FIGURE 6.
  • reference numeral 1 denotes a glass window to which a phosphor screen has to be applied which consists of dots of phosphors luminescing in three colours.
  • the protruding edge of the window is provided with a thickened part or stud 3 which is pressed simultaneously with the window.
  • a cavity 4 is pressed into the stud 3.
  • This cavity may be substantially cylindrical (cf. FIGURE 2) or may have the form of a cylinder having a com- 3,497,746 Patented Feb. 24, 1970 ICC pletely uninterrupted wall; alternatively, the cavity may have a U-shaped cross-section as is indicated by 5 in FIG- URES 1, 3 and 5.
  • the shadow mask 6 secured on a frame 7 is supported in the protruding edge of the window 1 by means of resilient supporting members 8 which are provided in FIG- URE 1 with resilient parts 13 and in FIGURE 4 with a substantially pin-shaped body 9 having resilient parts 10.
  • the thickened parts are preferably disposed at the corners of the window, especially with the use of a comparatively light mask which is not secured on a supporting frame 7, in order to increase the strength of the suspension.
  • the body 9 is arranged parallel to the tube axis, whilst the resilient tags 10 are received with clamping fit by the cavity 4, 5.
  • the pin 9 may be hollow and may be secured to the supporting member 8 by a flanged edge 12.
  • the shadow mask 6 may be permanently fixed, for example, by screwing a screw bolt into the cavity of the flanged edge 12, as a result of which the resilient part 10 of the pin 9 expands and pressed against the side walls so that it is rigidly clamped in the cavity 4, 5.
  • the glaze 11, by means of which the cone 2 is secured to the edge of the window 1 may be utilized to fix the pin 9 in the cavity 4, 5, as is shown in FIGURES 5 and 6.
  • Two or more pin-shaped members may be prolonged so that they extend on either side of the supporting member 8, as is indicated by 14 and 15 in FIGURE 6.
  • the part 15 of each of these pins may then be utilized to centre the cone with respect to the window when these parts are joined by means of the glaze 11.
  • the part 15 of one pin is located, for example, in a cavity 16 and that of the other pin engages a fitting edge 18 provided in the glass wall of the cone 19, preferably during pressing of the cone.
  • a colour television cathode ray tube comprising, a display screen having thereon a plurality of groups of phosphor dots and being positioned on the front wall of a faceplate having a substantially rectangular shape, a correspondingly shaped shadow mask proximate said display screen and having apertures aligned with said groups, a plurality of resilient strips attached to spaced portions of the frame of said shadow mask at one end and to substantially pin-shaped members at the other, said pinshaped members being substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of said tube, said faceplate having thickened sidewall portions including shaped cavities to receive said pin-shaped resilient parts to press against the sidewalls of said cavities and clamp said members therein for fixedly supporting said shadow mask.
