Abstract
A deflection unit (6) for a cathode-ray tube having a yoke ring (9) of a sintered, oxidic, ferromagnetic material. The yoke ring has a reduced wall thickness with respect to the wall thickness of conventional yoke rings, such reduced thickness being less than 6 mm and preferably in the range from 2 to 4 mm, and yet the ring is of sufficient mechanical rigidity because it is essentially stress-free. That may be achieved by sintering and cooling the yoke ring so that the oxygen content near the surface differs very little from that in the interior thereof, or so that a substantial difference in oxygen content is only present in a very thin surface layer thereof.
Claims16
A deflection unit for a cathode-ray tube, comprising a first and a second system of deflection coils and a coil yoke in the form of an annular core of a sintered, oxidic, ferromagnetic material, characterized in that the annular core is less than 6 mm thick and the oxygen content thereof at or adjacent its surface is substantially the same as the oxygen content within the remainder of the annular core;
- whereby the annular core is substantially stress-free.
A deflection unit for a cathode-ray tube, comprising a first and a second system of deflection coils and a coil yoke in the form of an annular core of a sintered, oxidic, ferromagnetic material, characterized in that the annular core is less than 6 mm thick and the oxygen content thereof is substantially the same except in a thin layer adjacent its surface wherein the oxygen content differs substantially from the oxygen content within the remainder of the annular core, such surface layer being sufficiently thin so that the annular core is substantially stress-free.
