Abstract: A color cathode ray tube comprises a panel which outside surface is flat and inside surface has curvature, and a pressed shadow mask having a curved surface opposed to the panel inside surface. The curved surface of the shadow mask is such that the radius of curvature decreases approximately linearly as the position moves from the center to the periphery. Radii of curvature on the major axis, minor axis, and diagonal axis at positions having the same distance from the shadow mask center do not have large differences. This configuration can increase the mechanical strength of the shadow mask.

The internal magnetic shield is formed in a substantially quadrangular pyramid-shape having a substantially rectangular first opening with a smaller diagonal dimension at one end adjacent to the electron gun and a substantially rectangular second opening with a larger diagonal dimension than the smaller diagonal dimension at the other end adjacent to the shadow mask.

Abstract: A color cathode ray tube comprises a vacuum envelope in which there is mounted a shadow mask having a curved surface having a plurality of electron beam passing holes and a skirt extending downward from the margin of the curved surface. The shadow mask is supported by a mask frame having a substantially rectangular side wall. A shadow mask assembly constituted by fitting and securing the skirt into the side wall is set in the panel of the envelope, and the skirt is fitted and secured into the side wall by curving the middles of two or four facing sides of the skirt inward. Thereby, it is possible to provide a color cathode ray tube having the shadow mask assembly capable of obtaining a superior magnetic shielding characteristic by enlarging the effective region of the curved surface of the shadow mask.
