In-line color picture tube apparatus with dynamic convergence correction device

In an in-line color picture tube apparatus with an in-line color picture tube having a center beam between two side beams aligned in a plane, a self-convergence deflection yoke, a static convergence correction magnet assembly comprised of static convergence correction magnets and purity correction magnets, said yoke and said assembly being mounted on said tube, the improvement comprising dynamic convergence correction means disposed between said self-convergence deflection yoke and correction magnet assembly, said dynamic convergence correction means comprising a support member made of a non-magnetic substance, eight coil assemblies having cores fixedly disposed radially on said support member concentrically of the tube axis with mutually equal circumferential spacings, and coils wound on said cores, said coils being connected in such a manner as to generate a four-pole magnetic field having a horizontal axis which coincides with the in-line plane of the electron beams, a six-pole magnetic field having said horizontal axis, a four-pole magnetic field having an axis making an angle of 45.degree. with respect to said horizontal axis, and a six-pole magnetic field having a vertical axis, each of the multi-pole magnetic fields producing displacement forces only on said side beams, said apparatus further comprising drive circuit means for feeding to said coils dynamic convergence correction signals of predetermined amplitude and direction at predetermined timings in accordance with the deflection synchronizing signals to achieve dynamic convergence correction over the scanned deflection field.
