Abstract

PURPOSE:To secure vacuum withstand and make the construction light by coupling a face panel having an image display part with a back face plate made of metal, jointing a reinforcement to this back face plate, and forming a vacuum vessel of a flat type image display device. CONSTITUTION:The joint surface between a face panel 1 and a back face plate 3 is coated with low melting point glass frit, and the two are assembled together in the condition that an electrode structure 2 is accommodated in its inside, followed by baking in a furnace at 400-450 deg.C to melt the glass frit, and they are cooled and hardened to accomplish bond. Then a reinforcement 5 is jointed to the back face plate 3 in order to enhance the vacuum withstand. Besides a single sheet of metal, composites such as honeycomb structure may be used as reinforcement 5. Air is exhausted from the internal space bounded by the face panel 1 and back face plate 3, and thus a vacuum vessel is accomplished.

Conventional technology As a flat panel image display device, there are two methods: one method uses an electron emission source in a vacuum and a group of planar electrodes to collide an electron beam with a desired pixel on a planar fluorescent screen to emit light, and the other method uses plasma discharge for light emission. being developed. As the vacuum containers of these flat panel image display devices become thinner, the flat panel portion becomes larger.
For example, if a glass material is used, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the glass material in order to ensure vacuum resistance strength, and there remains a problem in reducing the weight.

Therefore, various structures have been proposed in which metals having a higher allowable stress than glass are used as constituent materials of the vacuum container, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 80-100344. In this case as well, the face panel having the image display surface is made of glass, and the back plate facing the glass is made of metal.

The social face panel 11 is made of a glass material, the inner surface of the container is coated with phosphor, and the outer surface of the container is substantially flat. on the other hand,
The back plate 13 is made of an iron-nickel alloy having a coefficient of thermal expansion approximately equal to that of the glass material used for the face panel 11. A low-melting glass frit is applied to the joint surfaces of the face panel 1 1 and the back plate 13, and the electrode structures 12 are housed inside, and the two are combined and heated in a firing furnace for 400 ms.
After firing at ~450°C to melt the glass frit, the glass frit is cooled and hardened to join. Thereafter, the internal space formed by the face panel 11 and the back plate 13 is evacuated to obtain a vacuum container.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention Since the glass and metal containers do not have the same coefficient of thermal expansion, thermal stress inevitably occurs at the joint. In a relatively small image display device, the shape of the container may be small and thin, so that the thermal stress generated at the joint between the face panel 11 and the back plate 13 is small, and a sufficiently reliable vacuum container can be manufactured.

However, when the device becomes relatively large, it is necessary to increase the thickness of both the face panel 11 and the back plate 13 in order to ensure sufficient vacuum resistance. However, when the metal back plate 13 becomes thick, thermal stress generated at the joint increases, causing a problem in that the glass breaks at the joint. As described above, ensuring vacuum withstand pressure by increasing the thickness of the back plate 13 and preventing damage to the glass due to thermal stress during bonding conflict with each other, and it has been difficult to achieve both.
