A method and system for applying adhesive to a transparent, anti-reflective panel for a Cathode Ray Tube (“CRT”) include applying adhesive only around an outside perimeter of the panel. Preferably, the adhesive is only applied in the outermost perimeter of the panel which corresponds to the outer perimeter of the display surface of the CRT which is beyond the useable area of the display surface, i.e., where no portion of the images displayed extend. Thus, the adhesive will hold the transparent panel to the display surface of the CRT, but will not collect dust and other contaminants that will be trapped over the useable display area of the CRT. Additionally, the panel, with adhesive only around its perimeter, will be relatively easy to remove from the CRT for salvage and reclamation purposes.
A transparent panel for application to a display surface of a cathode ray tube, said transparent panel comprising a strip of adhesive applied around an outer perimeter of said transparent panel and not in a center, viewing portion of said transparent panel.
A cathode ray tube comprising a transparent panel adhered to a display surface of said cathode ray tube, said transparent panel comprising:
A method of applying adhesive to a transparent, anti-reflective panel for application to a display surface of a cathode ray tube, said method comprising distributing a strip of adhesive around an outer perimeter of said transparent panel and not in a center, viewing portion of said transparent panel.
An anti-reflective, transparent panel for application to a display surface of a cathode ray tube, said transparent panel comprising:
