a Sheets-Sheet 2 INVENTOR. CHARLES E. TORSCH ATTORNEY (COMBINED DEFLECTION YOKE AND HOUSING BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In general, cathode ray tube systems include a cathode ray tube having one or more electron beams and a deflection yoke associated with the cathode ray tube for effecting horizontal and vertical deflection of the electron beam. The deflection yoke is ordinarily telescoped over the neck portion of the cathode ray tube and firmly but adjustably affixed thereto. Thus, the deflection yoke requires some form of housing for effectingthe above-mentioned adjustable features.
Further, the deflection yoke housing should include such desirable features as ease of insertion and removal of the deflection yoke therefrom, as well as ease of electrical access to the deflection yoke. Moreover, the deflection yoke housing should not only provide mechanicalprotection for the deflection yoke but also electrical protection for personnel associated with operation or repair of the apparatus.
Unfortunately, the known prior art. deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing apparatus leaves much to be desired for any one of a number of reasons. Excessive cost, undue structural complexity, lack of convenient electrical coupling capability and lack of mechanical protective capability are all undesirable features of which one or more are found in known deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing apparatus, such as US. Pat. No. 3,363,206 issued Jan. 9, 1968 to R. S. Joseph.
OBJECTS AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide enhanced deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing apparatus for a cathode ray tube system. Another object of the invention is to provide improved electrical coupling and protective capabilities for deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing apparatus. Still another object of the invention is to provide improved mechanical protection and attachment means for deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing apparatus.
These and other objects, advantages and capabilities thereof are achieved inone aspect of the invention by a deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing combination which includes an annular core member having first and second end portions with first and second annular mounting rings in contact therewith and affixed to a' shield member surrounding the core member whereon toroidal wire turns are and a shield member 23.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The shield member 23 is disposed in surrounding relationship to the core member 13 and intermediate the first and second annular mounting rings 19 and 21. The shield member 23 includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced slots 45 formed for engagement with the hook members 31 of the first annular mounting ring 19. The shield member 23'also includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced protuberances 47 formed for engagement with the notches 41 of the tab members 33 of the second annular mounting ring 21. A plurality of spaced inwardly projecting pressure members 49 are disposed about the circumference of the shield member 23. 1
A circuit board 25 includes a central aperture 51formed for passage therethrough of the neck portion 9 of a cathode ray tube 11 (shown on FIG. 2) and a plurality of circumferentially spaced openings 53. The circuit board 25 is substantially circular in form except for an outwardly extending protuberance 55 having a hole 57 therethrough and includes printed electrical circuitry 59 on at least one side thereof.
As to the deflection yoke assembly 5, the shield member 23 surrounds the core member 13 with the inwardly projecting pressure members 49. urging the core member 13 forward. The first annular mounting ring 19 contacts the .first end portion 15 of the core member 13 and the hook members 31 of the first annular mounting ring 13 and the. slots 45 of the shield member 23 are brought into engagement.
The second annular mounting ring 21. contacts the second end portion 17 of the core member 13-with the forward extending portion 39 of the pairs of tab members 33 flexing and urging the core member 13 forward. The notches 41 of the pairs of tab members 33 and the spaced protuberances of the shield member 23 are brought into engagement whereupon the pairs of ear members 27 and tab members 33 are brought into alignment by the. slots 45 and protuberances 47 of the shield member 23. g
The circuit board 25 is engaged with the second annular mounting ring 21 by passage of the rearwardly extending portion 35 of the tab members 33 through the spaced openings 53. The outwardly extending portion 37 of the tab members 33 is slightly offset from the rearwardly extending portion 35 whereupon the circuit board 25 is held in spaced relationship from the wire receiving grooves 43 of the second annular mounting ring 21. Thus, wire disposed within the wire receiving grooves 43 is protected from deleterious distortion by the circuit board 25.
Also, it should be noted that the ear members 27 of the first annular mounting ring 19 extend outwardly from and forwardly thereof. The forwardly extending portion serves to space any wire within the wire receiving slots 29 from a planar surface, thereby providing protection of the wires from undesired displacement and distortion. The outwardly extending portion of the ear members 27 is formed for engagement with the deflection yoke housing 7 as will be explained hereinafter.
Further, the shield member 23 is preferably of a flexible plastic material to facilitate the engaging relationship of the first and second annular mounting rings 19 and 21. However, it is to be noted that metals such as copper and chromium are also suitable materials for the shield member 23.
As can best be seen in FIG. 2, a plurality of wire turns 61 are wrapped in toroidal fashion about the annular core member 13, first and second annular mounting rings 19 and 21, and shield member 23. The wire turns 61 normally include a number of end portions (not shown),which are mechanically affixed to the previously-mentioned outwardly extending portions 37 of thepairs of tab members 33 on the second annular mounting ring 21. Thus, the outwardly extending portions 37 of the tab members 33 facilitate mechanical coupling of the wire turns 61.
' Telescoping over and intimately engaging the deflection yoke assembly 5, is the deflection yoke housing 7. The deflection yoke housing 7 includes a relatively large diametrical portion 63 having a plurality of peripheral spaced slots 65, a conical-shaped portion 67 having at least one formed aperture 69, and a relatively small diametrical portion 71 having a substantially planar portion 73.
The peripheral spaced slots 65 of the large diametrical portion 63 are formed for engagement with the outwardly extending portion of the pair of ear members 27 of the first annular mounting ring 19. Also, the formed aperture 69 of the conicalshaped portion 67 is formed to receive the protuberance 55 of the circuit board 25. Thus, the 'hole 57 of the protuberance 55, in conjunction with the formed aperture 69 of the conicalshaped portion 67, serve to provide interior access for electrical coupling of external wires to the wire turns 61 of the deflection yoke assembly 5.
The substantially planar portion 73 of the relatively small diametrical portion 71 serves to provide a support for the deflection yoke assembly since the rearwardly extending portion 35 of the tab members 33 extend through the openings 53 of the circuit board 25. This rearwardly extending portion 35 contacts the inner surface of the planar portion 73 to provide the desired support for the yoke assembly 5. Moreover, the rearwardly extending portion 35 serves to space the circuit board 25 from the planar portion 73 and the planar portion 73 prevents attending technicians from physically contacting the electrical circuitry 59 on the circuit board 25.
The substantially planar portion 73 of the small diametrical portion 71 is formed to provide an apertured mounting ring 75 (See FIG. 2) suitable for telescoping engagement with the neck portion 9 of a cathode ray tube 11. The mounting ring 75 includes a forward extending portion 77 and a rearward extending portion 79.
The forwardly extending portion 77 of the mounting ring 75 is adapted for centrally locating the deflection yoke assembly 5 by peripheral contact with the circuit board 25. The rearwardly extending portion 79 is in the form of flexible segments having an external shoulder 81 formed to provide a channel 83 intermediate the external shoulder 81 and the substantially planar portion 73 of the relatively small diametrical portion A clamp member 85 seats in the channel 83 and is laterally confined by the external shoulder 81 and the planar portion 73. In this manner, a firm but adjustable attachment of the deflection yoke housing 7 to the neck portion 9 of the cathode ray tube 11 is achieved. This firm attachment is insured without fear of undesired movement due to sliding of the clamp member 85 on the rearwardly extending portion 79.
Further, a magnet holding means 87 is formed on the outer surface of the substantially planar portion 73 of the relatively small diametrical portion 71. This magnet holding means 87 serves to facilitate attachment of a magnet, such as a blue lateral magnet common to color television receivers. Obviously, such a magnet holding means 87 is in the interest of convenience rather than necessity and is in no manner a requirement to satisfactory operation of the apparatus.
Thus, there has been provided combined deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing apparatus suitable for employment with a cathode ray tube system. The unique combination provides both electrical and mechanical protection for the deflection yoke assembly as well as electrical protection for personnel associated with the apparatus. Also, the apparatus facilitates electrical and mechanical coupling of the deflection yoke assembly and facilitates rapid assembly of the deflection yoke and deflection yoke housing. Moreover, the apparatus includes a firm but adjustable means for attachment to a cathode ray tube.
While there has been shown and described what is at present considered the preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be obvious to'those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the invention as defined by the appended claims.
