The bumper assembly comprises an elongate main bumper part, a side bumper part bolted to each longitudinal end of the main bumper part at generally right angles, and a reinforcing stay having one end bolted to the main bumper part and the other end bolted to the side bumper part in a manner to form a diagonal beam in building construction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a video projector type television receiver in which a prism plate is disposed in front of a color cathode ray tube, a projection lens is located in front of the prism plate and transparent liquid is injected into the space between the color cathode ray tube and the prism plate and the space between the prism plate and the projection lens. So, according to the present invention, since a difference between the refractive indexes of the transparent liquid and each component is not so large as that between the refractive indexes of the air and each component, it is possible to reduce a reflection on each boundary surface and also it is possible to prevent a multiple reflection image from being caused and a light amount from being lost greatly. Furthermore, owing to the liquid cooling effect of the transparent liquid, it is possible to suppress the thermal expansion of each portion so that the resultant influence such as the change of optical path and so on can be reduced.

Abstract: An image display apparatus includes an image display screen which is formed by a plurality of picture display elements arranged repeatedly with a predetermined pitch for displaying an image as a set of plural picture elements. In this case, one or more double refraction plates are disposed in front of the image display screen so that light rays from the picture display elements are double-refracted by each double refraction plate and that the density of the picture display elements is increased apparently. Thus, in a color cathode ray tube in which a phosphor face is formed by color phosphors arranged in a stripe pattern, it is possible to reduce the coarseness of the texture of the color phosphor stripe.
