  • Publication number: 20090269089
    Abstract: In an image forming apparatus for forming a color image by superposing component color images, a control device obtains position data representing a forming position of each of plural registration mark images for the component color images with respect to a positional reference value arbitrarily determined, divides the position data into each of a unit reference range representing a range in which one mark image is formed, converts the position data divided for each unit reference range into those based on respective reference values representing the front edge of the unit reference ranges, extracts the position data representing ranges common to the mutually overlapping ranges each of which is represented by a couple of position data corresponding to the rising and falling edges of a passage timing pulse as read position data of the mark image of the component color, and calculates the amounts of positional deviations of the component color images from one another on the basis of the position data extracted.

  • Patent number: 6469430
    Abstract: A cathode ray tube including a color selecting, electrode having a plurality of metal tapes; a rectangular frame for holding the color selecting electrode under tension; a plate spring having one end fixed to the frame and the other end having an engaging hole; and a panel having a pin for engaging the engaging hole of the plate spring, the panel being held to the frame by the plate spring; wherein a resonance frequency of the plate spring is different from a resonance frequency of the metal tapes. Since the resonance frequency of the plate spring is different from the resonance frequency of the metal tapes, possible resonance of the metal tapes with a large amplitude by the vibrations of the plate spring due to external vibrations applied to the cathode ray tube can be prevented. Therefore, even though the color selecting electrode has a fine pitch with a large screen and a high definition, the cathode ray tube has vibration resistance to prevent color deviation or the like due to the vibrations.

  • Patent number: 5780962
    Abstract: A color-selecting apparatus of a color display device which can effectively suppress vibration generated in a color-selecting electrode system, wherein one side of a supporting plate spring is fixed to a frame via a holder, and the other side of the supporting plate spring is fixed to the frame. The supporting plate spring is constituted by laminating flat plate springs, and the flat plate springs relatively move by deformation accompanying the vibration from the outside. The vibrational energy is consumed by the frictional energy generated between them.
