Abstract: In a color cathode ray tube, inner lead pin segments which extend inside the neck of a funnel constituting an vacuum envelope, outer lead pin segments which are led out of the neck and interconnecting wires which respectively connect both lead pin segments together are provided in a stem for sealing the end portion of the neck. The inner lead pin segments are arranged along a first circumference and are supported by respective projections protruding from the stem. The outer lead pin segments are arranged along a second circumference having a larger diameter than that of the first circumference. The inner lead pin segments are connected to the respective outer lead pin segments by the respective interconnecting wires which are bent in the stem and the respective projections.

Abstract: A suspension system includes a shock absorber, a coil spring, a tubular dust cover, and an insulator. The shock absorber is provided with a first seat and a second seat at the opposite ends. The insulator is disposed between the first seat and the coil spring, and includes a body for holding the coil spring, and a contact projecting from the body in a centripetal direction and having a portion being brought into contact with one of the opposite ends of the dust cover. The insulator forms a space between the first seat and an outer portion with respect to the portion of the contact. Thus, the insulator reduces the wear of the first seat resulting from the contact with the dust cover, inhibits the first seat from corroding, and keeps the strength of the first seat from decreasing.

Abstract: A bracket made from a metal sheet for connecting a strut of a suspension and a wheel carrier has at least two attaching portions attached to the wheel carrier. A holding portion holds the strut at a predetermined position, and at least one welding portion substantially exactly surrounds the predetermined position of the strut and is welded to the strut.

Abstract: In a color picture tube apparatus, a deflection unit is provided around a color picture tube and a leakage magnetic is generated from the deflection unit. A metal cover made of aluminum, which covers an electrical power source is located in a space to which leakage magnetic field is reached and a first opposition magnetic field is generated from the metal cover due to the leakage magnetic field which produces an eddy current in the metal cover. A metal plate made of a conductive and non-magnetic material is so located between the deflection unit and the metal cover as to be substantially perpendicular to the metal cover. Thus, a second opposition magnetic field is so generated from the metal plate due to the leakage magnetic field as to substantially cancel the first opposition magnetic field.

Abstract: A color picture tube apparatus comprises a color picture tube including an envelope having a phosphor screen excited by a plurality of electron beams, and deflection means generating horizontal deflection field and barrel type vertical deflection field for the beams, including non-linear magnetic field correction means generating an additional pin-cushion type magnetic field in the vertical field to have preferably convergence characteristics such that vertical direction coma errors can be appropriately corrected throughout every portion of the vertical axis on the screen, whereby high-definition color images can be obtained thereon.
