  • Patent number: 6225764
    Abstract: A linearity correction coil device and a video display apparatus using the same are disclosed. In a video display apparatus having a cathode-ray tube, a deflecting yoke for deflecting the electron beam and a linearity correction coil device for compensating a linearity of the electron beam, the linearity correction coil device is horizontally installed on a printed circuit board for the cathode-ray tube, and wherein a vertical length of said linearity correction coil in an intersecting direction to a progressive direction of the electron beam has a shorter length than a horizontal length of said linearity correction coil device in a parallel direction to the progressive direction of the electron beam. Accordingly, it is able to prevent the electron beam from running off a normal orbit by a magnetic field generated from the linearity correction coil device. Therefore, since the electron beam exactly collides with fluorescent material, it is able to prevent a stained image from showing on the cathode-ray tube.

  • Patent number: 6194824
    Abstract: Four magnetic pieces are provided inside the cup-shaped portion of a shield cup. Correction magnetic field generating faces at the tips of the magnetic pieces are opposed to each other and sandwich an electron beam. Correction can be conducted according to the astigmatism amount of three electron beams because a correction magnetic field corresponding to the strength of a deflection magnetic field can be generated easily by leading the deflection magnetic field absorbed by the principal face portion of each magnetic piece to the correction magnetic field generating face. Thus, the difference in astigmatism amount among the electron beams caused by the deflection magnetic field can be corrected. Therefore, a color cathode ray tube apparatus that can display images with a high resolution over the whole screen surface can be provided.

  • Patent number: 6127776
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for securing a deflection yoke onto a cathode ray tube includes forming pockets having deformable, resilient inner walls along a circumferential surface of the deflection yoke. When the deflection yoke is mounted on the cathode ray tube, the inner walls deform slightly to conform to a contact portion of the cathode ray tube. The position of the deflection yoke with respect to the cathode ray tube it then adjusted into proper alignment. Once the deflection yoke and cathode ray tube are properly aligned, fast curing epoxy is poured into each of the plastic pockets, wedging the deflection yoke permanently into its desired orientation on the cathode ray tube. The pockets can either be integrally formed with the deflection yoke or they can be manufactured and attached to the deflection yoke in a separate operation.
