Definitions

  • BF 2 INVENTOR BY m M k mm ATTORNEYS CATHODE RAY TUBES BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to an implosion-proof cathode ray tube assembly, and more particularly to an implosion-proof cathode ray tube assembly having mounting lugs for mounting the tube in a television receiving set.
  • Shelbond (trade mark) type the so-called Shelbond (trade mark) type, Kimcode (trade mark) type and tension band type are included.
  • a mounting unit such as a frame
  • the implosion-proof cathode ray tube or to form mounting lugs by bending a plurality of projections provided on the reinforcing band for the implosion-proof cathode ray tube, such as a rim band or a tension band.
  • lugs adapted to mount the cathode ray tube on the television set are welded to the band.
  • the mounting lugs are welded to the reinforcing band secured to the cathode ray tube, not only is the welding operation troublesome, but also the reliability of the welds is low. Further, the heat of welding causes damage to the cathode ray tube or a decrease in the reinforcing effect of the reinforcing band.
  • a further object of this invention is to provide an implosion-proof cathode ray tube assembly capable of perfectly preventing the movement or shift of the position of the mounting lugs, which is caused by the shearing force applied to the second tension band when it is tightened for the purpose of securely fixing the mounting lugs.
  • Another object of this invention is to provide an improved implosion-proof cathode ray tube assembly which can be secured by the reinforcing band without using a resinous binder and by which the mounting lugs can be secured without relying upon a welding operation, thus preventing spoilage of the cathode ray tube, so that the tube can be manufactured by mass production techniques.
  • Yet another object of this invention is to provide an implosion-proof cathode ray tube assembly utilizing first and second reinforcing bands, wherein the first band is used to reinforce the tube against implosion by the tightening force of the band, whereas the second band is used mainly to secure the mounting lugs and additionally to improve the implosionproof quality of the tube.
  • FIG. I shows a front elevation of one example of the novel cathode ray tube with mounting lugs
  • FIG. 2 shows a partial sectional view of the cathode ray tube shown in FIG. 1, taken along line [1-1];
  • FIG. 3 shows a diagrammatic elevation illustrating a jig for applying the tension bands to the implosionproof cathode ray tube
  • FIG. 4 shows a sectional view taken along line IV-IV in FIG. '3.
  • the cathode ray tube 1 itself has a conventional construction and comprises a rectangular deep dish-shapedpanel I1 and a funnel portion 12 abutting each other.
  • an adhesive tape 2 of polyester for example, which is wrapped about the periphery.
  • a first tension band 3 for example, a steel tape, extending in the same direction as the adhesive tape 2, is tightly wrapped around the panel 11 under a tension commensurate with the physical dimension of the cathode ray tube, for example, under a tension of approximately 100 to 600 Kg.
  • the mounting lugs may have any well known construction and are shown herein as lugs having an L-shaped cross-sectional configuration formed with openings 41 for mounting the cathode ray tube in a television set.
  • the anti-skid means comprise a plurality of projections 42 formed on the inner surfaces of the mounting lugs 4 confronting the outer surface of the first tension band 3.
  • the anti-skid means may be provided by forming coarse surfaces on the outer surface of the first tension band 3 facing the mounting lugs, or forming such coarse surfaces on the inner surfaces of the mounting lugs.
  • Tightening of the reinforcing or tension bands can be advantageously performed by using a jig as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the jig 13 shown in these figures includes a vacuum suction pad 14 at its center for supporting the panel 11 of the cathode ray tube 1.
  • the rear end of the vacuum suction pad 14 is connected to a suitable source of vacuum, not shown, and an adjustable screw 15 is provided between the bottom wall of the jig l3 and the neck of the suction pad for adjusting the vertical position thereof.
  • a band clamp 16 is mounted on the jig to be movable toward the center of the cathode ray tube at a position corresponding to one side of the cathode ray tube fixed to the vacuum suction pad.
  • a welder 17 for welding the end of the first or second tension band which is tightly wrapped about the cathode ray tube 1.
  • a pair of opposing guide members 18 which are movable toward the center of the cathode ray tube to maintain the position of the first tension band 3 or the second tension band 5 relative to the cathode ray tube, so as to align the respective bands.
  • lug clamp members 19 each including a head 20 for holding the lug and a pneumatic piston-cylinder assembly 21 for forcing the head 20 toward the cathode ray tube.
  • a cathode ray tube 1 around which has been wrapped the adhesive tape 2 and the first tension band 3 in any well known manner, is mounted on the vacuum suction pad 14. Thereafter, pneumatic piston-cylinder assemblies 21 of the respective lug clamp members 19 are operated to force the mounting lugs 4 against the outer surface of the first tension band 3. Then the second tension band 5 is wrapped about the cathode ray tube 1, that is, around the outer periphery of the first tension band 3 on the outside of respective mounting lugs 4, during which operation the band clamp 16 is operated to hold a portion of the second tension band.
  • the adhesive tape and the first tension band can also be applied on the cathode ray tube while it is mounted on the jig.
  • said anti-skid means comprises coarse surfaces formed on the outer periphery of said first tension band at least at portions thereof facing said mounting lugs.
