Description

Jan. 22, 1963 c. SNYDER DEFLECTION YOKE CORE FOR CATI-IODE RAY TUBES Filed May 27, 1957 m. m ON T NL R V: m m a W United States Patent 3,075,131 DEFLECTION YOKE CORE FOR CATHODE RAY TUBES Christopher L. Snyder, Plainfield, N.J., assignor, by mesne assignments, to Indiana General Corporation, a corporation of Indiana Filed May 27, 1957, Ser. No. 661,876 2 Claims. (Cl. 317-200) This invention relates to a ferromagnetic deflection yoke core for high efficiency deflection circuits for cathode ray tubes such as TV or oscilloscope applications and particularly color television applications.
Cores made of ferromagnetic material are fitted about the neck portion of cathode ray tubes such as color television picture tubes to provide for the deflection of cathode rays within the tube. Heretofore, deflections of 70 to 90 for the rays has been considered adequate but deflections of up to 110 are sometimes desired. The cores are usually made in four parts, each part comprising a 90 sector of the complete toroid so that they may be clamped about the magnetizing coils. To obtain the wider deflections required by the more efiicient cathode ray tubes the parts of the yoke core must be fitted and maintained together very accurately.
Among the objects of the invention is to provide a yoke core device which can be accurately fitted about such cathode ray tubes and which is less subject to be rendered inoperative by poor workmanship, variations in size of the neck of the picture tube and accidental dislodging.
The objects of the invention are attained by providing a yoke structure in four parts with the assembled core having two parallel mating surfaces. Thus, each of the first two opposite parts of the yoke core have two mating surfaces in the same plane while each of the second two opposite parts have two parallel mating surfaces, one at each side thereof. Thus, the mating surfaces of each of the four parts may be readily ground to close tolerances on conventional grinding equipment, the parts may be moved laterally for a limited distance with respect to each other without changing the spacing between the parts, and the parts are more readily positioned in contacting relationship by the clamping device.
The core parts may be made of any type of ferromagnetic material such as soft iron, ferrous alloys, etc. Very satisfactory ferromagnetic materials for forming the parts are the class of ceramic products known as the ferrites. These materials have the general formula x(MO).yFe O in which MO is one or more bivalent oxides, in which x and y represent the mol proportion-s of the MO and the Fe O respectively and in which xzy is approximately 1:1.
In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of the core toroid assembled from the four parts thereof.
FIG. 2 is a cross sectional view taken on line 2-2 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view illustrating how the core may be applied to a television picture tube.
The assembled core 10 comprises a first pair of parts 11-1 and 11-2 which are identical in shape and a second pair of parts 12-1 and 12-2 which are also identical in shape. For the molding of the separate parts of the core therefore only two shapes of mold cavities or simi- 3,075,131 Ice Patented Jan. 22, 1963 lar molding devices are required. Each of the first pair of par-ts 11-1 and 11-2 has two flat contact or mating surfaces 1'3-1 and 14-1 or 13-2 and 14-2 which are in the same plane and are separated by a portion of the inner circumference of the toroid. In the production of these parts from ferrite materials the powdered metal oxide components or precalcined ferrite powders are molded and sintered or fired at 1800 F. to 2400" F. or more. During the firing some shrinkage or alteration in form takes place so that the mating surfaces 13-1, 14-1, etc. are not flat. Furthermore, the two faces 13-1 and 14-1 or 13-2 and i14-2 are no longer in exactly the same plane after firing. The two mating surfaces of the particular piece 11-1 or 1.1-2 are simultaneously ground flat in a single plane to the tolerance required on conventional grinding equipment. Sintered metal core parts may be made in a similar way.
Each of the second pair of parts 12-1 and 12-2 has two parallel mating surfaces 15-1 and 16-1, or 15-2 and 16-2. Since the surfaces 15-1 and 16-1 are parallel, both surfaces can be ground simultaneously in appropriately spaced grinding means or a first ground surface may be employed to properly align the other surface for parallel grinding. A slight excess or deficiency in grinding any one of surfaces 13-1, 13-2, 14-1, 14-2, 15-1, 15-2, 16-1 or 16-2 does not result in any great change in the mating of the surfaces as is the case with radially aligned mating surfaces of the conventional core. Also, it will be noticed that parts 12-1, 12-2 may be moved up or down as shown in FIG. 1, with respect to parts 11-1 or 11-2 without producing any increase in spacing between the mating surfaces. Thus, small differences in diameter of the neck part of a television tube may be compensated and small accidental dislocations of the parts do not produce any change in their effective permeability.
The opening 20 in the assembled toroid may be shaped to conform generally to the shape of that region of the cathode ray tube 40 which it is to surround. Thus, opening 20 may include an approximately tubular portion 21 and an outwardly flaring portion 22.
In operation, the core bodies are fitted about a cathode ray tube 40 as illustrated somewhat diagrammatically in FIG. 3. The pair of vertically deflection coils 41 and 42 are curved gently to fit upon the conical portion of the tube 40. The horizontally deflecting coils 43 (only one shown) are shaped similarly to coils 41 and 42. The horizontally and vertically deflecting coils are suitably insulated from each other by thin insulating sheet material (not shown). The four pieces of the yoke core 10 completely surround the deflecting coils 41, 42, 43, etc. and provide a return path for magnetic flux. The angle a indicates a deflection greater than which may be obtained by such a device. The parts of the core 10 are held in place by the clamp 45.
The features and principles underlying the invention described above in connection with specific exemplifications will suggest to those skilled in the art many other modifications thereof. It is accordingly desired that the appended claims shall not be limited to any specific feature or details thereof.
