Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A single cathode ray tube envelope having a plurality of phosphor screen areas thereon providing a plurality of individual screens contained in a single glass envelope. Multiple beams are provided from a single electron gun construction having a single cathode, a single control grid panel, a first anode panel, and either a deflection yoke or a deflector plate assembly.
  • a number of advantages arise from being able to provide a plurality of individual visual displays on phosphor screens or individual phosphor screen areas disposed close to each other for monitoring or viewing by a single observer.
  • cathode ray tube readouts from telemetry or sensing apparatus wherein the displays on different screens or screen areas are in distinctive colors, for example green for one screen, yellow for another screen, and red for another screen, can be useful in displaying certain information because of the color of the phosphor in the particular screen and thus the color of the image produced.
  • plural screens such as a two to six screen cathode ray tube, with the image on each screen being derived from a different television station or closed circuit television camera, to permit the viewer to simultaneously monitor two or more television images.
  • the plurality of screens and electron-beams is also advantageous for oscilloscope wave-form displays, since as many as six individual inputs can be simultaneously viewed without time-sharing or electronic switching.
  • An object of the present invention is the provision of a novel multi-screen, multi-beam cathode ray tube having a single glass envelope and a single electron gun capable of producing a plurality of separate electron beams which are individually controlled and correspond in number to a plurality of phosphor screens for producing plural individual images.
  • two or three beams in a single horizontal row can be provided for producing images on two or three horizontally spaced phosphor screen areas on the faceplate, to provide two or three separate images.
  • two vertically spaced rows of three separate electron beams each, all derived from a single electron gun, can be provided to activate and produce images on two vertically spaced rows of three phosphor screen areas each, thus providing six different phosphor screens in a single cathode raytube glass envelope.
  • Another example enables intermixing of single electron-beams, in a single horizontal row, with multiple (3) electron-beams on a verticalaxis for color TV images on one or more.
  • tri-colo'r phosphor screens composed of horizontally distributed strips, approximately 0.010 to 0.018 inches wide, of'color producing phosphors in Magenta, Cyan and Green illumination or fluorescence.
  • Another object of the present invention is the provision of anovel electron gun construction for cathode ray tubes capable of producing one or'more vertically spaced rows of one or more electron beams each, each of which electron beams may be individually convertical electrostatic deflection plates supported on a single electron gun frame structure with a first anode and grid panels and a single cathode structure.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a multi-screen kinescope cathode ray tube construction having a single electron gun, embodying the present invention, capable of producing three side-by-side separate screen images;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of another embodiment of a multi-screen cathode ray tube constructed in accordance with the present invention having a single electron gun and providing six separate phosphor screen areas on the faceplate;
  • FIG. 3 is a vertical section view of the multi-screen cathode ray tube of FIG. 2, taken along the lines 33 of FIG. 4;
  • FIG. 4 is a vertical longitudinal section view taken along the line 4-4 of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 6 is an enlarged side elevation view of the electron gun
  • FIG. 7A is an elevation view of the screen grid and first anode hole pattern for a six screen tube having a tri-color screen as the center screen of the top row.
  • the screen 14A could be of a phosphor which produces red light
  • the screen 148 could be of a phosphor which produces yellow light
  • the screen 14C of a phosphor which produces green light. If the cathode ray tube were used as a telemetry readout in connection with missile launching, the appearance of an image on the green producing phosphor screen 14C would indicate that everything was in satisfactory condition, the presence of an image on the yellow phosphor producing' screen 14B could indicate a caution condition, and an imageon the red phosphor producing screen 14A could indicate a hold condition or a danger condition.
  • the faceplate may be provided with outwardly protruding depressions, as illustrated at 24C and 24E in FIG.
  • the electron gun assembly for this cathod ray tube is indicated generally at and is located in the rear portion of the glass neck section 11, and the usual deflection yoke 16 to effect magnetic deflection of the electron beams surrounds the neck portion 11 in accordance with standard practice.
  • the electron gun 15 is of the multi-beam type, to be later described in detail, which in this embodiment produces three laterally alined individual electron beams, schematically indicated at 17A, 17B and 17C in FIG. 1.
  • the phosphors for the various screens 24A to 24F may be selected so that the screens 24A, B and C respectively reproduce in green, red and blue, and the lower row of screens 24D, E and F reproduce in white, yellow and orange.
  • one or more of the screens may be a screen producing a composite color image formed of three basic phosphor colors as is customary in color television.
  • FIG. 5 The details of construction of the electron gun for the embodiment of FIGS. 2 through 4 are illustrated in FIG. 5, which incorporates electrostatic deflection plates in the electron gun assembly for vertical and horizontal deflection and sweeping of the associated electron beam.
  • the electron gun assembly for multiscreen, multi-beam cathod ray tubes having a magnetic deflection yoke will be of similar construction but will not incorporate the electrostatic deflection plate components.

If a single horizontal row of plural electron beams is required, as where the plurality of phosphor screen areas are all horizontally alined in side-by-side relation as in FIG. 1, only a single channel formation is needed for the pair of sheet members 35, 36 forming the cathode.
  • the sheets 35 and 36 are assembled at each end, and between each of the elongated channel formations, by spot welding, thereby providing a most rigid and stable cathode design.
  • the filament windings are formed of spiral tungsten filaments 27F, insulated by an insulating layer of high temperature ceramic such as alumina or fused aluminum oxide.
  • This honeycomb design produced by the assembled sheets 35 and 36 having the outwardly projecting channel formations provides maximum resistance to heat warpage from heating the cathode to operating temperatures, thus assuring that the flat front face, indicated at 35B, will remain parallel to the control grid for maximum efficiency of electron emission.
  • the cathode flat areas 358 are coated by spray, paint, or electrophoretic deposits of standard cathode material, such as that referred to commercially as Tri-Carbonate, which is protected from atmosphere poisioning by a layer of organic lacquer until the cathode ray tube is activated in the final fabrication stages.
  • the rectangular parallel cathode surfaces 35B on which the cathode material is deposited are of sufficient axial length, extending from one end of the cathode to the other, to assure maximum electron emission from as many as seven controllable grid apertures at a current density to enable each electron beam to develop to microamperes of current.
  • the honeycomb structure herein described lends itself to rapid manufacture and ease of fabrication by machine stamping or die rolling.
  • the control grid, indicated by reference character 28, in the preferred embodiment is in the general configuration of a rectangular panel, similar to the panel or substrate for a printed circuit board, having a plurality of holes or apertures 28A arranged in a row or plural rows alined with the center axes of the flat or flats 35B of the cathode carrying the cathode material.

  • the beams for the holes 28A-1, 28A-2 and 28A-3 are scanned horizontally along their respective phosphor strips 248-], 248-2 and 243-3 to produce a tri-color image without a shadow mask.
  • the phosphor is deposited in strips of about 0.018 inch widths with a 0.002 inch space between strips and the holes 28A-1, 28A-2 and 28A-3 may be 0.010 inch diameter holes spaced on 0.020 inch centers.
  • the holes in the first anode, for the three color beams for screen 248, should be individually controlled as in the control grid.
  • the ceramic substrate is provided with the grid apertures, having an initial or unplated diameter in one example of 0.01 184 inches, each aperture having a stepped entrance and exit end formed by an annular slightly larger cross-section aperture portion at the entrance and exit ends, as illustrated and described in my earlier patent application entitled MULTl-BEAM CATHODE RAY TUBE CONSTRUCTION, filed Aug.
  • the ceramic substrate is provided with a goldplating, in such example, formed by first applying an initial thickness of approximately 1,000 angstrom units of gold by a vacuum process known as sputtering. This sputtered gold layer is applied to both surfaces of the substrate and to the inside walls of the grid apertures 28A to assure firm adhesion of the electroplated metallic gold to the ceramic substrate.
  • the control grid substrate is then electroplated to increase the thickness of the gold to 0.001 inch (or 0.025 millimeters).
  • copper may first be applied to the ceramic substrate, after which the substrate is then electroplated with nickel to provide a thickness of about 0.001 inch.

  • a photosensitive etch resist such as Eastman-Kodak Company's KPR or KMER or KTFR resist.
  • This photosensitive etch resist is then exposed to a precision glass photographic plate containing a negative image of the control apertures and the attachment metal paths desired from the apertures to connecting terminals at the edge of the plate 28, and the resist is then processed in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations to etch away the unwanted metal gold.
  • the first anode 29 is similar to the control grid 28 in that the ceramic substrate may be of the identical size and design as the control grid substrate and is likewise provided with apertures 29A corresponding in number and location to the apertures 28A in the control grid.

  • Each pair of a focusing anode 30 and an accelerating anode 31 may be formed of a pair of metallic tubes spaced along a common axis and electrically isolated from each other, with the rearmost end of the focusing anode tube 30 fixed in an opening of corresponding diameter in the ceramic supporting plate 32, while the forward end of the accelerating anode tube 31 is similarly supported in a correspondingly sized opening in the ceramic supporting plate 33.
  • electrostatic deflector plates Forwardly of the assembly of the focusing anode tubes 30 and accelerating anodes 31 are the electrostatic deflector plates for each beam.

  • These frame members may be glass supporting rods having pins which extend inwardly to and join the respective elements which they support.
  • the honeyeombed cathode design provides a flat surface bearing the cathode emission material which is spaced the same distance from each of the grid apertures 28A to insure uniform electron emission for each of the electron beams and minimum cathode distortion from filament heat.
