Livingston, N. J assignors to Best Manufacturing Company, Inc., Irvington, N. J a corporation of New Jersey Application March 21, 1951, Serial No. 216,736 6 Claims. (01. 313-44) The present invention relates to the art pertaining to cathode ray tubes, such as are used in television receivers or oscilloscopes, and is more particularly concerned with improvements in focusing arrangements for the electron beams.
ticularly concerned with improved forms of such focusing devices which can be more readily and accurately adjusted and which are simpler to fabricate and lower in cost.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will become more clearly apparent from the following description of preferred embodiments thereof, taken in conjunction with the appended drawings in which:

Fig. 2 is a front end-view of the device of Fig. 1,

cording to the present invention,

Fig. 10 is a fragmentary transverse cross-sectional view of the same device viewed along line Ill-40 of Fig.9,
Fig. 11 is a fragmentary crosssectional view viewed along line I [-1 I of Fig. 10,
Fig. 12 is a fragmentary transverse cross-sectional view of a modification of a portion of Fig. 10, and
Fig. 13 is a similar view of another modification of a portion of Fig. 10.
Referring particularly to Figs. 1-6, there is shown one form of permanent magnet focusing device according to the present invention. This device is formed of a pair of parallel annular pole plates 2| and 22, made of magnetic material, such as a suitable grade of iron or steel. Between these pole plates 2! and 22 are clamped a plurality of permanent magnets 23, as by means of bolts 24 or other suitable means. The magnets 23 are preferably made of Alnico or similar highly retentive permanently magnetized material. A cylindrical pole piece 26 of magnetic material is axially adjustably mounted within the circular aperture 21 of the rear pole plate 2! and has an inner diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the neck of the cathode ray tube on which the focusing device is to be mounted.
The pole piece 25 has fixed thereto a pair of non-magnetic guide members 28 and 29 which may be suitably secured either to the edge of the cylindrical pole piece 26 or to the fiat cylindrical wall thereof, as may be desired. Guide member I 28 as shown in Fig. 1 has a single aperture 3| therein which is in alignment with a corresponding aperture 32 of guide member 29. Member 29 has a further aperture 33 which is internally threaded. Secured to either or both the pole plates 2| and 22 in any desired fashion, as by a pressed fit in apertures therein, is a non-magnetic guide pin 34 which has a sliding engagement with respect to the apertures 31 and 32 of brackets 29 and 28. Also passing through the pole plate 2! is a non-magnetic lead screw 36 which is threadedly engaged in the threaded aperture 33 of bracket 29. Screw 38 is preferably formed integrally with an extension 3i, providing a shoulder 38 bearing against pole plate 2|. Screw 35 and its extension 3'5 are retained against lateral movement by any desired means, such as a C-washer 39 or other suitable device. For retaining the pole piece 26 centered within the aperture 2? and for minimizing friction, a plurality of centering shims 4| are utilized. These are in the form of U-shaped strips of non-magnetic material seated at the inner edge of the pole plate 2|.
It will be understood that by rotating shaft 42 connected to the lead screw 36, the pole piece 26 is axially adjusted with respect to the pole plate 22, thereby varying the air gap between these elements so as to adjust the intensity of the magnetic field to which the electron beam of the cathode ray tube is subjected when the focusing d device is located around the neck of the cathode ray tube. The strips s8 and guide pin provide an accurate guide for the pole piece 253 so that it does not rock or alter its position relative to the axis of the device during adjustment, while at the same time a relatively low-friction drive is provided.
The pole plate 22 may be fastened to a mounting plate 53 so as to provide a centering adjustment for the device. Thus, as shown in Fig. 2, the mounting plate at has a slot 54 at one end and a slotted extension at at the other. A pin or screw 47 passing through slot is restricts the plate 43 to sliding motion relative to pole plate 22. An extension id is secured to pole plate 22 and a suitable clamp device st clamps the centering plate extension it to the pole plate extension d8. Relative adjustment is secured by the slot W, the slot i in extension id, and the arcuate slot 52 in the pole plate extension A pair of mounting cars 53 may be secured to the pole plate 22 for mounting the device upon any suitable bracket.
Fig. '7 shows a slightly modified form of guide arrangement. In this case the guide members 28 and 29 are joined, preferably integrally, by a saddle piece 32 which is secured to the outer cylindrical surface of the pole piece it. The pole plate 2i is provided with a recessed aperture 28 to accommodate the saddle piece at. The remaining portions of the device are the same as discussed with respect to Figs. 1-6, and the device operates in the same manner.
The remaining Figures 8-13 illustrate a modified form of device similar in operation and function to that already described, but additionally useful in having certain self-aligning features. Similar elements will be given numbers similarly in these figures. The main difference between the device of Figures 8-13 and that of the preceding figures is in the arrangement serving to guide movement of the pole piece 26. As shown in Figs. 8, 9 and 10, a non-magnetic cylindrical sleeve El is mounted at the inner edge of the aperture 2? of pole plate 2!, and abuts pole plate 22 as at 62. This sleeve 6! is not a complete cylinder, but has a longitudinally extending gap 63 formed by the outturned edges a l of the sleeve 6! which serve in part as a guide or passage for the drive mechanism. It will be understood that the pole piece 26 has a sliding fit within the sleeve 61. The non-magnetic lead screw is mounted in pole plate 2i against axial movement, and engages the non-magnetic travelling nut 65 which in turn is held between a pair of non-magnetic posts 66 extending through the gap 63 and attached to the pole piece 26. A pair of sleeves 59, is may be slidably mounted on the screw 3% at opposite sides or" the nut 65 so as to provide limits for the movement of the nut 65 in either direction. The travelling nut t5 as shown in Fig. 11 has channels 6'! extending along opposite sides thereof, which slidably engage the posts 56, but which prevent any movement of the travelling nut 65 relative to the posts 68 along the axis of the focusing device.
Thus, upon turning the shaft 62 attached to the lead screw 35, nut 65 is axially adjusted, which simultaneously adjusts the pole piece 26 within the sleeve 6 I. However, any radial misalignment between the axis of lead screw 36 and the axis of the device, such as may be caused by unavoidable variation in dimensions during manufacture, is automatically taken up by the relative sliding movement between the nut and the posts 66,
thereby accommodating the device to incidental inaccuracies in manufacturing procedures. As shown in Figure 12, the posts 66 may be joined by a cross piece 66' to form a U-shap-ed bracket which retains the nut 65 in place. Where radial adjustment of the nut 65 is not important, the posts may be replaced'by a single loop I65 suitably fastened to the pole piece 26 as shown in Fig. 13.
In this way the entire sleeve 6! acts as a guide for the pole piece 25, assuring accurate retention of proper centering for the entire length of travel of the pole piece 26.
From the above description it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the subject matter of this invention is capable of variation, and I do not, therefore, desire to be strictly limited to the illustrated embodiments herein set forth. I prefer to be limited only as required by the appended claims.
