Abstract
Electrical contact with the target electrode of the tube in a tube/coil assembly is made by disposing a wire tangentially to a radial periphery about the longitudinal axis of the tube to create an interference fit between the wire and the electrode.
Claims5
In a television camera tube assembly for an elongated tube of the type including a target electrode at one longitudinal end thereof and an electrical contact coupled to said target electrode, and electrode contacts at the other end thereof for connection to electrodes other than the target, said tube assembly further including cylindrically shaped magnetic coils surrounding at least a portion of said tube, and a tube mounting, the improvement comprising:
- a wire disposed in the tube mounting of said assembly in an attitude tangential to a radial periphery about the longitudinal axis of said elongated tube at a radius to create an interference fit with said electrical contact coupled to said target electrode and thereby establish electrical contact thereagainst.
