  • Patent number: 4220897
    Abstract: A ring is provided to correct the convergence, color purity and frame errors of a color display tube which ring is magnetized as a multipole and which is secured in or around the tube neck and around the paths of the electron beams.The magnetization of such a ring can best be carried out by energizing a magnetization unit with a combination of direct currents thereby generating a multipole magnetic field and then effecting the magnetization by generating a decaying alternating magnetic field which preferably varies its direction continuously.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 3965386
    Abstract: A degaussing device for a color television display tube having three electron guns arranged in one horizontal plane and vertically directed phosphor strips on the display screen, comprising degaussing coils which envelop a major part of the conical surface of the tube and are arranged such as to generate a vertically directed magnetic field, and a capacitor connected parallel to the degaussing coils, the impedance of the capacitor being high at the frequency of the degaussing current and low at the frequency of the line deflection current.
