Abstract: Horizontal line misconvergences produced at screen upper and lower portions, among rasters displayed by side electron beams are corrected without producing degradation in vertical deflection sensitivity so much and changing horizontal trapezoidal distortion. In a deflection yoke provided with a top-and-bottom pair of saddle-type horizontal deflection coils and a right-and-left pair of saddle-type deflection coils and mounted to and used in a color cathode ray tube having an in-line arranged electron gun, a pair of sub-cores is provided from side to side or above and below on the electron gun side of the deflection yoke. At least one pair of correction coils is wound around each of the pair of sub-cores.

Abstract: In a color cathode ray tube having a flat panel exterior surface, the screen distortion and the convergence give rise to problems. To overcome these problems, by arranging bar magnets in such a manner that they are disposed parallel to a screen and are shifted from upper and lower ends of a horizontal deflection coil of a deflection yoke by not less than 10 mm in the direction perpendicular to a tube axis, the distortion of the screen and the characteristics of the convergence can be simultaneously improved.
