Abstract: A method and apparatus used to step and correct the position of raster lines in a sinusoidal or zig-zag deflection system. By combining the magnetic flux generated with a rotation “twister” coil and a vertical deflection coil, scan lines can be uniformly spaced and separated nearly to their ends. Accordingly, the magnetic flux generated with the twister coil is adjusted going in the left to right direction then reversed in polarity and readjusted while returning from right to left. It is this controlled twister flux that combines with the linear vertical deflection flux to straighten and then step each scan line to produce an aligned raster.

Abstract: A deflection yoke has first and second horizontal deflection coils formed of a solid wire. A first bobbin and a second bobbin are formed in one-piece construction with each other. The first coil-end lead of the first horizontal deflection coil and the second coil-end lead of the second horizontal deflection coil are wound around the second bobbin to form a balance coil such that the balance coil is formed continuous with horizontal deflection coils. After the first and second horizontal deflection coils and the balance coil have been wound around the respective bobbins, the second bobbin may be separated from the first bobbin and then the second bobbin may be mounted to a desired part of the first bobbin.

Abstract: A deflection yoke for use in a cathode ray tube includes a switching circuit, which is coupled to each vertical coil. The deflection yoke employs two pairs of vertical coils. The vertical coil pairs can be two pairs of saddle type coils, one pair of saddle type coils and one pair of toroidal type coils, or a divided pair of saddle type coils to make two pairs of saddle type coils. The deflection in the first quarter region from the top and the last quarter region at the bottom of the CRT screen is provided by one coil when energized by the vertical deflection current switched through it. The deflection in the two middle quarter regions of the CRT screen is provided by a second coil when energized by the vertical deflection current switched through it. One vertical coil pair is optimized to correct convergence error in the top and bottom quarter portions of the CRT screen. The other vertical coil pair is optimized to correct convergence error in the middle portion of the CRT screen.

Abstract: Color television apparatus and color monitors are provided with a device, in particular with an electron lens system, to vary the mutual spacing of the electron beams generated in an electron beam generating system. By reducing the mutual spacing between the generated electron beams, in accordance with the deflection of the electron beams, the spacing of the shadow mask to the viewing screen can be increased at an increasing distance to the center of the screen, and thereby a less expensive shadow mask design can be used without having to take the former disadvantages of a flat screen into account.

Abstract: A color display device comprises an electron gun, a display screen with a curved inner surface and a flat color selection electrode as well as a deflection means. The distance between the electron beams is dynamically varied, whereby the distance in the deflection space increases as the beams are deflected in at least one direction. The reduction of the distance enables the distance between the color selection electrode and the display screen to be decreased in that direction. As a result, the curvature of the inner surface of the display window is increased, which has a positive effect on the strength and weight of the display window.
