  • 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: 5829350
    Abstract: The printing apparatus has a holding cylinder in which communication holes for communicating an external portion and an internal portion are made and a transfer pad which covers the outer surface of the holding cylinder at ordinary times in a detachable manner, expands upon pressure being applied via the above communication holes when the interior of the holding cylinder is pressurized, and contracts and returns to its original state when the pressure is released. Ink is adhered to the outer surface of the expandable/contractable transfer pad. The transfer pad is inserted in the contracted state into a cylindrical hole of an object to be printed. Pressure is applied from the inside of the transfer pad to cause it to expand and cause the outer surface of the transfer pad to press against the inner surface of the cylindrical hole and thereby transfer the ink adhered to the outer surface of the pad to the inner surface of the cylindrical hole.

  • Patent number: 5744191
    Abstract: In a method of coating a curved panel in a cathode ray tube, by placing on the inner surface of a panel having a curved surface a screen frame of a boat-shaped configuration across the bottom of which a screen printing screen is stretched; and by moving a squeegee pushed against the surface of the screen so that ink coated on the surface of the screen passes through the screen and prints on the inner surface of the panel, a fluorescent screen having a good and even film is fabricated on the inner surface of the cathode ray tube panel having a curved face, by a screen printing. In the method, electro-conductive terminals for electro-deposition are not required, steps are reduced, production costs are reduced, and production quality is stabilized.

  • Patent number: 5191259
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fluorescent display apparatus of high brightness illumination which is applied to a display apparatus of large picture screen or the like. The display apparatus of the present invention is comprised of a plurality of segments (13) to which a high voltage is applied, a cathode (K), a plurality of control electrodes (G2) disposed in correspondence with each of the respective segments (13) and a common electron beam deriving means (G1) disposed between the cathode (K) and the control electrodes (G2) in correspondence with the plurality of segments (13R), (13G) and (13B), whereby the segements (13) are selectively illuminated by controlling the voltages of each of the control electrodes (G2). Thus, these electrodes can all be shaped as flat plates without causing a cross-talk and the structure of the display apparatus can be simplified.
