Abstract: A threshold system, having a threshold and a flashing removably connected to the threshold is disclosed. The threshold system including a threshold and a flashing removably connected to the threshold. The threshold having a front incline, a front support, an arm, with the front support and the arm forming a portion of the front incline and extending toward a threshold front. the arm includes an underside and a hook, whereby the hook bends back toward a threshold rear. A frontal pocket is defined by a space within a flashing receiving space between a hook upper side and underside of the arm.

Abstract: The invention provides a CRT having a funnel sealed at one end to a faceplate panel with a luminescent screen on an interior surface thereof, a mask assembly supported within the CRT and in proximity to the screen, the faceplate panel having a plurality of peripheral sidewalls each having an inside surface. The CRT also includes a plurality of studs, with at least one stud affixed in each of the corners of inside surface of the sidewalls. A plurality of springs engage the corner studs, to support the mask assembly within the CRT; at least one additional stud is affixed along the inside surface of one sidewall and a shim is attached around the additional stud. On the mask assembly at least one bracket is positioned to have a slot into which the shim is loosely engaged, thereby mitigating motion in a plane parallel to the interior sidewall.

Abstract: A split foot damper for damping vibrational energy on a tension mask having a border with an edge. The apparatus has a first element having a first portion in moveable contact with a surface of the border and a second portion in moveable contact with the edge of the border, and a second element having a third portion in moveable contact with the surface of the border and a fourth portion in moveable contact with the edge of the border, where the two elements are connected to each other at a point that is affixed to the surface of the border. As the mask vibrates, the vibrational energy is transferred to the split foot damper, wherein vibrational energy is dissipated as the portions of the split foot damper makes contact against the surface and edge of the border.
