ATTORNEY Patented July 31, 1962 3,047,759 CATHODE-RAY TUBE STRUCTURE Joseph T. McNaney, La Mesa, Califi, assignor to General Dynamics Corporation, Rochester, N.Y., a corporation of Delaware Filed Mar. 30, 1959, Ser. No. 892,904 Claims. (Cl. 313-82) This invention relates generally to cathode-ray tube structure and more particularly to cathode-ray tube electron gun construction and assembly techniques.
The invention has general utility in cathode-ray devices containing complex beam generating, forming, or deflection systems, but is of particular advantage in the im provement of the internal structure of cathode-ray tubes known as shaped beam tubes.
The shaped beam tube comprises an evacuated envelope having at one end a beam generating means, at the other end a screen coated on the inside with an electron sensitive phosphor. Intermediate the two ends is a character forming matrix which subdivides the electron beam into a plurality of character shaped streams. Intermediate the matrix and the screen is a means for selecting specific streams for projecting onto the screen in response to an input code. The selection means itself may comprise one or more electrostatic lenses, a series of deflection coils or plates, and an aperture plate, as described fully in US. Patent No. 2,761,988, issued to Joseph T. McNaney and assigned to the common assignee hereof. In order that successive indicia may be precisely registered or located on the screen, the structural elements within the shaped beam tube must be assembled and maintained in rigid and precise alignment.
It is accordingly an object of this invention to provide a cathode-ray tube structure having improved alignment accuracy.
Another objective is to provide a complex cathode-ray tube electron gun structure which can easily be assembled in proper alignment.
Still another objective is to provide a relatively inexpensive cathode-ray tube structure.
Further objectives and an appreciation of the invention are obtainable on examination of the following description in conjunction with the drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is an exploded view, showing a typical as semblage of shaped beam tube elements fabricated according to the invention;
FIGURE 2 is an exploded fractional View of another embodiment; and
FIGURE 3 is an exploded fractional view of still a third embodiment.
Briefly, the invention comprises a cathode-ray tube structure in which each of a series of electron optical elements within a cathode-ray tube is fabricated so as to have a periphery which cooperates with two appropriately shaped longitudinal members for the purpose of accurately positioning the electrical elements in rigid alignment. The assembled longitudinal members form a tabulation which may be an integral part of the envelope of a cathode-ray tube or which may be mounted within the cathoderay tube envelope.
Referring now to the drawing for a more detailed description, FIGURE 1 is an exploded view of one embodiment showing the various elements of a shaped beam tube fabricated according to the invention into an electron gun structure.
The electrode members to which direct current and/ or control potentials are applied, hereinafter designated as electron optical elements, are shown aligned along the longitudinal axis 50 of a cathode-ray tube (shown in part). The various optical elements function in a shaped beam cathode ray tube in the manner substantially as shown in US. Patent No. 2,761,988 and as described hereinafter. A cathode 11 and control grid 13 are separately mounted adjacent one end of the cathode-ray tube envelope 15. The optical elements shown are a first anode It) for accelerating and eifecting a first crossover of the electron beam, a convergence lens 12 for reconverging the electron beam at a second crossover point, a character matrix 14- containing a plurality of character shaped openings 17 and located intermediate the cathode and the second crossover point for forming the electron beam into a pluraltiy of streams, a selection unit 16 located at the second crossover point for redirecting the plurality of electron streams, and an aperture plate 18 having a central aperture 19 which is large enough to permit only one shaped electron stream to pass therethrough. The selected electron stream impinges on a target 21 such as an electron sensitive phosphor on the inside surface of the cathode-ray tube faceplate 23. Although the selection unit 16 as shown herein functions in the manner of the normal type of electrostatic deflection plates, any suitable type of deflection system may be used such as a coplanar type of deflection system.
Two tubular or semitubnlar members 20 and 22, made of glass, metal, or any other rigid material suitable for inclusion in a cathode-ray tube, serve as structural supports and longitudinal spacers for the optical elements 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18. The two tubular members 20 and 22 cooperate to form a long tube in which the optical elements are mounted. Annular grooves 24 are cast or machined on the inside of each tubular member 20 and 22 to accept the peripheral portions of the respective optical elements. The grooves 24 are oriented transversely to the axis of the tubulation and their location along the axis is precisely calculated for optimal display of the projected indicia.
Assembly consists of inserting the optical elements into the grooves in one of the two tubular members and then fitting the other tubular member into place. The edges of the two tubular members 20 and 22 are spot welded or otherwise connected, after assembly.
It is especially important in shaped beam tubes to align the various optical elements with extreme angular accuracy. The effect of angular misalignment of the selection system relative to the character matrix would be at best poor registration of the visual output on the screen and at worst incorrect translation of the input code. To establish and maintain correct angular orientation of the optical elements, there is provided keying elements 36 protruding from the periphery of each optical element. The keying elements 3%) cooperate with a pair of corresponding keyways 26 in the tubular members 20 and 22. The keying elements 30 may also serve as electrical conductors for energizing the optical elements. While two keying ele ments 3ii are shown, it is within the scope of the invention to use only one keying element to provide circumferential stability within the tubular members 20 and 22. However, the use of two keying elements 30 presents advantages over the use of a single keying element in that greater circumferential stability is obtainable and also the two elements provide easier orientation of the optical elements with the tubular members aiding in the alignment and joint assembly of the tubular members 20 and 22.
FIGURE 2 is an exploded fractional view of an embodiment in which rotation of the electron optical element 31 within the tubular members 32 and 33 is prevented by another means. Both the periphery 34 of the optical elements 31 and the inside surface 35 of the tubular members 32 and 33 have a cooperating out-of-round configuration, shown in the figure as a square, but not limited thereto. Grooves 36 on the inside surface of the tubular members J cooperate with the periphery 34 of the optical members 31 to establish accurate longitudinal spacing, as before.
FIGURE 3 is an exploded fractional view of an embodiment in which rotation of each optical element 40 within the tubulation 41 and 42 is prevented as in FIG- URE 1 by keying members or pins 43 protruding radially from each optical element 40 so as to cooperate with corresponding keyways or holes 44 in the tubular members 41 and 4-2. The keyways 44 in this embodiment serve also to locate the optical elements 40 precisely along the longitudinal axis of the tubulation formed by the mating of the two tubular members 41 and 42. Lateral instability or twisting of the optical elements in this embodiment is prevented by providing the periphery 45 of each optical element 40 with a secured to thickness or flange 46 which cooperates with the inner surfaces 47 of the tubular members 41 and 42. As stated in regard to the embodiment shown in FIGURE 1, one of the pins 43 may also be eliminated in this embodiment with the aforesaid attendant loss of advantages.
Although the invention has been described with a degree of particularity, it should be understood that the present disclosure has been made only by way of example and that numerous changes may be made in the configuration and arrangement of the structural components without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as hereinafter claimed.
