Frame assembly of shadow mask in flat braun tube

Abstract

Frame assembly of a shadow mask in a flat Braun tube, in which a stress on a shadow mask is reduced for minimizing creep during an elevated temperature process, and a low tension on the shadow mask is corrected effectively during operation of a flat Braun tube after the elevated temperature process, for preventing deterioration of a color purity caused by deterioration of howling and doming, including a main frame fitted to the shadow mask, sub-frames connected between both ends of the main frame, and a thermal compensating plate fitted to a bottom of the sub-frames, wherein, first, a ratio(h/t) of a height ‘h’ of the sub-frame to a thickness ‘t’ of the thermal compensating plate is within a range of 4˜8, second, a ratio(b/b′) of a width ‘b’ of the sub-frame to a width ‘b” of the thermal compensating plate is within a range of 0.8˜1.3, and, third, a ratio(1/1′) of a length ‘1’ of the sub-frame having the thermal compensating plate fitted thereto to a length ‘1” of the thermal compensating plate is within a range of 0.8˜1.3.
