Patent number: 5262702Abstract: In an electron gun assembly, electron beams emitted from cathodes are focused in first cross-over and accelerated and controlled by grids along three axes arranged in-line. The controlled electron beams are weakly converged by unipotential lenses and are converged in a vertical plane by a common single electron lens having a lens power which is varied in accordance with a horizontal or vertical deflection of the electron beams. The converged electron beams form second cross-over on the axes which are shifted along the axes are diverged from the second cross-overs. The diverged electron beams are further focused and converged onto a screen by a main lens.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 1992Date of Patent: November 16, 1993Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Taketoshi Shimoma, Eiji Kamohara, Shigeru Sugawara, Jiro Shimokobe

Patent number: 5202603Abstract: A color cathode ray tube apparatus is provided with an electron gun assembly which emits three electron beams and focuses and converges the electron beam onto a phosphor screen. In the gun assembly, the electron beams generated from cathodes are accelerated and controlled by first and second grids and pass through third, fourth and fifth grids. The third and fourth grids have single rectangular apertures common to the three electron beams, respectively, which are faced to each other and have different heights and widths. Each of the fourth and fifth grids have individual apertures which allow the corresponding electron beams to pass therethrough, respectively. The third and fifth grids is maintained at fixed potentials and a potential of the fourth grid is adjusted. Thus, individual focusing and convergence electron lenses are formed between the fourth and fifth grids.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 1991Date of Patent: April 13, 1993Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Shigeru Sugawara, Shinpei Koshigoe

Patent number: 5162695Abstract: In a electron gun assembly, three in-line electron beams are generated from three cathodes and are controlled and accelerated by a prefocusing electron lens, and each of the electron beams is converged by unipotential electron lens. In a horizontal plane, the electron beams are collimated by a quadruple lenses and are incident on a single and common large-diameter main electron lens. In a vertical plane, each of the electron beams is emerged as a divergent electron beam from the quadruple lens and each of the divergent electron beams is incident on the main electron lens. Thus, each of the electron beams are correctly focused on a screen and the three electron beams are correctly converged on a convergent point by the main electrode lens.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 1991Date of Patent: November 10, 1992Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Taketoshi Shimona, Eiji Kamohara, Shigeru Sugawara, Jiro Shimokobe
