Definitions
- CTR cathode ray tube
- All visual display devices using a cathode ray tube, or CRT including televisions, TV games and monitors for business machines, generate ultraviolet rays which are harmful to human eyes.
- This invention provides a new filter arrangement to be placed in front of a CRT screen for filtering out the ultraviolet rays generated by the visual display device without at the same time changing the shape and color of the picture.
- a conventional known filter arrangement for CRTs (shown in Fig. 1) comprises a laminate of two transparent planar sheet glass 10 having a layer of heat-reflective, translucent metallic oxide formed therebetween.
- Such a filter arrangement for CRTs when placed in front of a CRT screen 11, filters out infrared rays and glare from the picture, but does not filter out ultraviolet rays.
- the planar sheet glass construction tends to distort the peripheral part of the picture. The glass surface also tends to reflect objects in the viewing room which interfere with the viewing of the picture.
- U.S. Patent 2,734,142 proposes a cathode ray tube having a meniscus-shaped zero-power lens shaped to the approximate configuration of the tube face, the lens being provided with a reflection-reduction coating which is exposed and therefore subject to attach by moisture and dust in the atmosphere; the reflection-reduction capability may deteriorate quickly. Furthermore, as the lens is bonded to the tube face, the reflection reduction coating on the lens surface is subject to heat of the tube by direct contact with the tube.
- US-A-2461464 describes a filter arrangement for use with a cathode ray tube having an arcuate screen face, comprising a tinted transparent sheet which is also arcuate such that a uniform gap is formed between the screen surface and the sheet.
- a filter arrangement for use with a cathode ray tube having an arcuated screen surface comprising a laminate consisting of a first transparent glass sheet (1), a second transparent glass sheet (2) and disposed therebetween a layer (3) of a composition of an adhesive compound and an ultraviolet ray absorbent; characterized in that said laminate is arcuated to provide a uniform gap (G) of 1-5 mm between the laminate and the arcuate screen surface of the cathode ray tube when the filter glass is placed in front of the cathode ray tube, and the outer surface of the second transparent glass sheet, which is the far side from the cathode ray tube, has a matted finish.
- G uniform gap
- the ultraviolet ray absorbent of the filter glass of this invention is not exposed to the atmosphere, and therefore will not deteriorate. Furthermore, as a uniform gap between the filter glass and the screen surface of the cathode ray tube is maintained, less heat will be transferred to the filter glass, thus minimizing the possibility of causing the ultraviolet ray absorbent to deteriorate by heat.
- This invention relates to a filter arrangement to be placed in front of a visual display device, or CRT, having an arcuate screen surface.
- a first embodiment of the filter arrangement of this invention comprises a first glass sheet 1, second glass sheet 2, both of which are transparent, arcuate, sheet glass having a curvature conforming to the curvature of the CRT screen for which the filter glass is to be used.
- the glass sheets are bonded by an adhesive layer 3 to form a laminate adhesive layer 3 comprising an adhesive compound and an ultraviolet ray absorbent.
- first glass sheet 1 and second glass sheet 2 has a thickness of 2 to 3 mm. They are transparent, rectangular sheet glass which have been hot-pressed into an arcuate shape. The curvature of the laminate conforms to the curvature of the CRT screen so that when placed 1-5 mm in front of the CRT, a uniform gap G is maintained between the screen surface of the CRT and the concaved, inner surface 1S of the filter glass, as shown in Fig. 4.
- the convex outer surface 2S of the laminate is treated to provide a matted surface by such process as dipping in hydrofluoric acid, sand blasting, or by depositing crystals of silicon oxide over the glass surface so as to form a surface having irregularly formed projections or depressions within the range of 3 to 6 um from the surface, as shown in Fig. 3.
- the adhesive layer 3 is composed of a mixture of an adhesive compound and an ultraviolet ray absorbent.
- the adhesive compound can be polyvinylbutyral, one part or two part type epoxy resin based adhesive.
- a particular suitable adhesive is two part type epoxy resins based adhesive such as Shell Chemical's Epikote 828.
- Ultraviolet rays have a wavelength of less than 400 nm (namometer).
- the ultraviolet ray absorbents useful in this invention should have the capability of absorbing light rays having wavelengths within the range of 300 to 400 nm, particularly at 353 nm.
- Suitable ultraviolet ray absorbents include 2(2'-hydroxy-3'5'di- tert-butylphenyl) benzotriazole (hydroxyphenyl benzotriazole), 2,2'-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone, ethyl-2-cyano-3-phenylcinnamate and phenyl salicylate, with hydroxyphenyl benzotriazole and dihydroxybenzophenone being preferred.
- the mixture comprises about 98.0 to 99.5 parts by weight of the adhesive and about 0.5-2.0 parts by weight of the ultraviolet ray absorbent. If a colored adhesive mixture is desired, 0.5-1.5 parts by weight of a coloring agent may be included therein.
- the coloring agent may be selected from Ciba-Geigy Microlity-T Colours.
- the mixture is evenly applied to the surface of either first glass sheet 1 or second glass sheet 2 to bond them together.
- adhesive layer 3 has a thickness of 0.35 to 0.04 mm, preferably 0.38 mm.
- the filter arrangement may be colored by selecting a colored glass or a colored adhesive. Either light brown or light gray is preferable.

Abstract
Description
- All visual display devices using a cathode ray tube, or CRT, including televisions, TV games and monitors for business machines, generate ultraviolet rays which are harmful to human eyes.
- Since ultraviolet rays are invisible, people tend to ignore or disregard their harmful effects when watching TV, playing TV games or working with CRT monitors in business machines.
- This invention provides a new filter arrangement to be placed in front of a CRT screen for filtering out the ultraviolet rays generated by the visual display device without at the same time changing the shape and color of the picture.
- A conventional known filter arrangement for CRTs (shown in Fig. 1) comprises a laminate of two transparent
planar sheet glass 10 having a layer of heat-reflective, translucent metallic oxide formed therebetween. Such a filter arrangement for CRTs, when placed in front of a CRT screen 11, filters out infrared rays and glare from the picture, but does not filter out ultraviolet rays. Furthermore, the planar sheet glass construction tends to distort the peripheral part of the picture. The glass surface also tends to reflect objects in the viewing room which interfere with the viewing of the picture. - U.S. Patent 2,734,142 proposes a cathode ray tube having a meniscus-shaped zero-power lens shaped to the approximate configuration of the tube face, the lens being provided with a reflection-reduction coating which is exposed and therefore subject to attach by moisture and dust in the atmosphere; the reflection-reduction capability may deteriorate quickly. Furthermore, as the lens is bonded to the tube face, the reflection reduction coating on the lens surface is subject to heat of the tube by direct contact with the tube.
- US-A-2461464 describes a filter arrangement for use with a cathode ray tube having an arcuate screen face, comprising a tinted transparent sheet which is also arcuate such that a uniform gap is formed between the screen surface and the sheet.
- In accordance with this invention, there is provided a filter arrangement for use with a cathode ray tube having an arcuated screen surface, comprising a laminate consisting of a first transparent glass sheet (1), a second transparent glass sheet (2) and disposed therebetween a layer (3) of a composition of an adhesive compound and an ultraviolet ray absorbent; characterized in that said laminate is arcuated to provide a uniform gap (G) of 1-5 mm between the laminate and the arcuate screen surface of the cathode ray tube when the filter glass is placed in front of the cathode ray tube, and the outer surface of the second transparent glass sheet, which is the far side from the cathode ray tube, has a matted finish.
- The ultraviolet ray absorbent of the filter glass of this invention is not exposed to the atmosphere, and therefore will not deteriorate. Furthermore, as a uniform gap between the filter glass and the screen surface of the cathode ray tube is maintained, less heat will be transferred to the filter glass, thus minimizing the possibility of causing the ultraviolet ray absorbent to deteriorate by heat.

- Fig. 4 is a schematic cross sectional view of the first embodiment of this invention as shown in Fig. 2, showing its relationship to the CRT screen.
- Fig. 5 is a schematic, cross sectional view of a second embodiment of the first arrangement of this invention.
- This invention relates to a filter arrangement to be placed in front of a visual display device, or CRT, having an arcuate screen surface.
- As shown in Fig. 2, a first embodiment of the filter arrangement of this invention comprises a first glass sheet 1,
second glass sheet 2, both of which are transparent, arcuate, sheet glass having a curvature conforming to the curvature of the CRT screen for which the filter glass is to be used. The glass sheets are bonded by anadhesive layer 3 to form a laminateadhesive layer 3 comprising an adhesive compound and an ultraviolet ray absorbent. - Each of first glass sheet 1 and
second glass sheet 2 has a thickness of 2 to 3 mm. They are transparent, rectangular sheet glass which have been hot-pressed into an arcuate shape. The curvature of the laminate conforms to the curvature of the CRT screen so that when placed 1-5 mm in front of the CRT, a uniform gap G is maintained between the screen surface of the CRT and the concaved, inner surface 1S of the filter glass, as shown in Fig. 4. - In order to eliminate the reflective characteristics of the glass surface, the convex
outer surface 2S of the laminate is treated to provide a matted surface by such process as dipping in hydrofluoric acid, sand blasting, or by depositing crystals of silicon oxide over the glass surface so as to form a surface having irregularly formed projections or depressions within the range of 3 to 6 um from the surface, as shown in Fig. 3. - In the first embodiment, the
adhesive layer 3 is composed of a mixture of an adhesive compound and an ultraviolet ray absorbent. The adhesive compound can be polyvinylbutyral, one part or two part type epoxy resin based adhesive. A particular suitable adhesive is two part type epoxy resins based adhesive such as Shell Chemical's Epikote 828. Ultraviolet rays have a wavelength of less than 400 nm (namometer). The ultraviolet ray absorbents useful in this invention should have the capability of absorbing light rays having wavelengths within the range of 300 to 400 nm, particularly at 353 nm. Suitable ultraviolet ray absorbents include 2(2'-hydroxy-3'5'di- tert-butylphenyl) benzotriazole (hydroxyphenyl benzotriazole), 2,2'-dihydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone, ethyl-2-cyano-3-phenylcinnamate and phenyl salicylate, with hydroxyphenyl benzotriazole and dihydroxybenzophenone being preferred. The mixture comprises about 98.0 to 99.5 parts by weight of the adhesive and about 0.5-2.0 parts by weight of the ultraviolet ray absorbent. If a colored adhesive mixture is desired, 0.5-1.5 parts by weight of a coloring agent may be included therein. The coloring agent may be selected from Ciba-Geigy Microlity-T Colours. The mixture is evenly applied to the surface of either first glass sheet 1 orsecond glass sheet 2 to bond them together. The best result is obtained whenadhesive layer 3 has a thickness of 0.35 to 0.04 mm, preferably 0.38 mm. - The filter arrangement may be colored by selecting a colored glass or a colored adhesive. Either light brown or light gray is preferable. When a colored glass is used, a clear adhesive , . compound is used. When a clear glass is used, a colored adhesive compound is used accordingly. Of course, if a clear filter glass is desired, clear glass and clear adhesive have to be used.
- As a second embodiment, the adhesive compound and the ultraviolet ray absorbent are applied separately as shown in Fig. 5. In this embodiment, first glass sheet 1 and a
second glass sheet 2 are prepared in the same way as the first embodiment. Before laminating first glass sheet 1 andsecond glass sheet 2, a layer of 200-300 nm thick ultraviolet rayabsorbent film 31 is formed on the surface on the concave side ofsecond glass sheet 2. The ultraviolet rayabsorbent film 31 is formed by spraying a solution comprising a solvent and an ultraviolet ray absorbent selected from the group of the compounds as previously described with respect to the first embodiment. The solvent may be toluene, benzene, acetone and ethanol and the solution may be a saturated solution of the selected compound. Then a layer of approximately 0.38 mm thickadhesive compound 32 is deposited on top of the layer of ultraviolet ray absorbent film to bondsecond glass sheet 2 onto the convex side of first glass sheet 1 to form a laminate. Theconvex side 2S ofsecond glass sheet 2 is matted as in the case of the first embodiment. - To further assure the non-reflective characteristics of the CRT picture filter glass of this invention, the concave surface 1S of first glass sheet 1 may also be matted in the same way as the
convex surface 2S ofsecond glass sheet 2. - The following examples further illustrate the present invention. However, such examples should riot be constructed as limiting on the scope of the present invention.
- A laminate of two arcuate glass sheets was made according to the first embodiment as described above, without either glass surface being matted. First glass sheet 1 and
second glass sheet 2 were both transparent, clear glass and the adhesive composition was colored. The adhesive composition comprised 96.6 parts by weight Shell Chemical's Epikote 828 as the adhesive compound, 1.9 parts by weight hydroxyphenyl benezotriazole as the ultraviolet ray absorbent, and 1.5 parts by weight the mixture of CIBA-GEIGY Microlith Yellow and Microlith Red as the coloring agent. The adhesive composition was applied at a thickness of 0.38 mm. The laminate was placed in front of a television set to measure the flow through rate of ultraviolet rays and the reflection. The following results were obtained. - ultraviolet ray (wave length: 360 nm-380 nm); 0.6% of the value obtained without using the filter
- reflection: 7.8%
- The convex surface of the laminate of Example 1 was matted. Reflection was completely eliminated.
- A laminate according to the second embodiment was prepared, with both of first and second glasses being colored and the adhesive compound clear. The adhesive composition comprised 98 parts by weight Shell Chemicals Epikote 828 as the adhesive compound and 2 parts by weight hydroxyphenylbenzotrizole as the ultraviolet ray absorbent. Neither side of the laminate was matted. The test results were as follows:
- ultraviolet ray measured : 0.7% of the value obtained without using the filter.
- reflection: 6.6%
- The convex surface of the laminate of Example 3 was matted as described above. Reflection was completely eliminated.
