Abstract: A color selection electrode device mounts: a color selection electrode composed of filaments for regulating the position which an electron beam of the cathode ray tube reaches on a pair of U-shaped frame bodies between which the color selection electrode is stretched. Support pieces are provided for connecting both end portions of the pair of frame bodies and holding the frame bodies at a predetermined space. The color selection electrode is a metal electrode which is composed of, for example, a multiplicity of filaments. The support pieces are composed of an elastic material and are bent due to the load which is applied to the frame bodies, thereby shortening the distance between the frame bodies. In this state, the color selection electrode is stretched between the frame bodies and both ends thereof are welded to the frame bodies. Thereafter, when the load is removed, a predetermined tension is uniformly applied to the color selection electrode by the elastic restoring force.

Abstract: An internal magnetic shield has a funnel of generally rectangular cross section and apertures disposed in all the walls of the funnel. Such shield is used in a color cathode ray tube to allow heat dissipation from a shadow mask to a funnel portion of an enclosed envelope of the tube.
