Abstract: A cathode ray tube having an evacuated envelope including a substantially rectangular faceplate panel with a sidewall joined to a funnel and an implosion resistant band surrounding at least a portion of the sidewall and in contact therewith. The cathode ray tube is mounted in a cabinet by a plurality of mounting lugs. The mounting lugs having a base portion attached to the implosion resistant band, an adjoining portion substantially perpendicular to the base portion, and a mounting portion positioned at an angle in respect to the adjoining portion. The mounting portion having an aperture for receiving a fastner for coupling the mounting portion to the cabinet.

Abstract: A display apparatus 10 comprises at least one speaker 16 and a cathode-ray tube (CRT) 14 secured within an enclosure 12 to a plurality of mounting bosses 50. The cathode-ray tube 14 has an evacuated envelope 17 with a substantially rectangular-shaped faceplate panel 18 having four corners and a viewing portion 26 extending to a peripheral sidewall 28. The viewing portion 26 has a luminescent line screen 32 on the interior surface thereof The viewing portion 26 including two orthogonal axes, a major axis, X, parallel to a longer dimension of the viewing portion and a minor axis, Y, parallel to a smaller dimension of the viewing portion. The CRT 14 has therein an electron gun 38, capable of generating at least one electron beam, aligned along a central longitudinal axis, Z, of the CRT that is perpendicular to the major and minor axes. The CRT 14 also has a color selection electrode 36 in proximity to the interior surface of the viewing portion 26 of the faceplate panel 18.

Abstract: Provided is a liquid handling device comprising: a cylindrical actuator cavity in a substrate, the actuator cavity intersected by two or more actuator channels; one or more chambers with an access channel adapted to connect to a separate one of actuator channels; and a actuator comprising (a) a cylindrical body having a cylinder axis and having therein a liquid-handling compartment with, arrayed along the cylinder axis, a first end and a second end, the liquid-handling compartment being closed at the second end, (b) a dispensing channel located at the second end and traversing the cylindrical body, the dispensing channel adapted to be separately aligned with the actuator channels, wherein the actuator is adapted to receive in a seal-tight manner a plunger that operates to confine an effective chamber defined by the plunger and the second end by moving toward the second end or to expand the effective chamber by moving toward the first end.

Abstract: The invention provides a parallel reaction device for conducting reactions therein comprising one or more reaction flow-ways, each such reaction flow-way comprising one or more chambers connected serially by fluid exchange channels, additional fluid exchange channels connecting such reaction channels in parallel, valve means for initiating and impeding the flow of fluids through such fluid exchange channels, and means for moving the flow of fluids into and out of such chambers.

Abstract: An evacuated envelope having substantially flat, spaced apart front and back walls and support walls extending between the front and back walls forming a plurality of parallel channels extending along the front and back walls. In each of the channels is an electron beam guide assembly which includes a pair of spaced, parallel plates fixedly secured together along parallel elongated edges by spacer members which are between the plates and to which the plates are mechanically secured. The plates have a plurality of openings therethrough arranged in rows longitudinally along and transversely across the plates with the openings in one plate being aligned with the openings in the other plate. The beam guide assembly fits in tracks formed along the support wall adjacent the back wall so as to support the beam guide assembly in fixed, spaced relation to the back wall.
