  • Patent number: 4339694
    Abstract: A flat cathode ray tube is disclosed in which the deflection of an electron beam in the direction which requires a large deflection angle is carried out by the electromagnetic deflection, while the deflection of the electron beam in the direction which requires a small deflection angle is carried out by electrostatic deflection. Further, in the evacuated envelope of the flat cathode ray tube, there is located a high magnetic permeability body to concentrate the magnetic flux on the electron beam necessary for the electromagnetic deflection. In a certain case, a magnetic material body with the electrical conductivity is used as the high magnetic permeability body so as to provide it with the function of serving as an electrode plate for the electrostatic deflection of the electron beam.

  • Patent number: 4232332
    Abstract: A control system for a beam index cathode ray tube momentarily gates or turns off all beam current at the transition from one color modulating signal to another. The resulting dip in the electron beam density, as it scans across an index phosphor stripe located between adjacent color phosphor areas, produces a substantially corresponding dip in the index signal derived from excitation of the index phosphor stripe by the electron beam. The dip in the index signal is detectable as an indication of the phase of the index signal substantially independent of differences in the amplitude of the electron beam current.

  • Patent number: 4212030
    Abstract: A beam index color cathode ray tube has index stripes spaced apart across a run-in area of the screen and which have a pitch substantially equal to the pitch of index stripes in an image area. A plurality of the index stripes in the run-in area generate an index signal as an electron beam scans them. An index stripe is omitted from the portion of the run-in area nearest the boundary with the image area to provide a characteristic to the index signal which permits generation of a trigger signal to preset color control circuits to a known condition as the electron beam enters the image area. A gating circuit blocks trigger signals which may be generated during scanning of the image area.
