Abstract: An inner shield for CRT includes a first protrusion having an upper indented portion and a lower indented portion, and a second protrusion having an upper band and a lower band, wherein the bands are asymmetrical.

Abstract: An aperture grill for a color cathode ray tube includes a mask having a plurality of slits, a frame for securing the mask in a taut state, and a vibration suppressing unit for suppressing the vibration of the mask. The vibration suppressing unit comprises a plurality of damping wires having ends fixed on opposing sides of the frame and stretched over the mask in a lengthwise direction, and a plurality of protrusions extending from the damping wires and spaced apart from each other a predetermined distance. The protrusions make contact with or are welded to slit formation elements of the mask, or are partly inserted into the slits and contact lateral sides of the neighboring slit formation elements to suppress vibration of the slit formation elements.

Abstract: An assembly of mask frame and inner shield for color cathode-ray tubes is disclosed, including a mask frame which is attached toward a panel so as to improve initial doming characteristics, decrease correction capacity of the spring, and prevent unbalanced magnetic field induction to the inside. An inner shield which is attached in opposition to the mask frame and protects electron beams from the earth's magnetic field, a mask frame assembly which contains the mask frame, and the inner shield. The mask frame has a band type with only side and a plate for preventing random reflection provided in the side of the inner shield. The plate for preventing random reflection is formed in a single body together with the inner shield. The inner shield is assembled inside or outside of the mask frame. The plate for preventing random reflection is extended from the inner shield to the inside at the front end or rear end of the mask frame.
