Abstract
The present invention relates to a cathode ray tube apparatus which can reduce an astigmatism caused from the deflection distortion by providing its focusing grid in two parts and producing a dynamic focusing lens of a quadrupole between the opposing faces of the two focusing grid parts. One focusing grid preferably has vertically disposed oblong through holes, while the other focusing grid preferably has one or more horizontally disposed oblong through holes.
Claims3
A cathode ray tube apparatus comprising:
- (1) an in-line type color cathode ray tube having at least one accelerating grid, a first focusing grid, a second focusing grid, a control grid and an anode, wherein
- (a) said accelerating grid and said first and second focusing grids are disposed in that order between said control grid and said anode,
- (b) said first focusing grid is box shaped and has three vertically oblong electron beam through-holes formed on an end face opposing said second focusing grid and three circular electron beam through-holes formed on another end face thereof opposing said accelerating grid,
- (c) said second focusing grid is box shaped and has a horizontally oblong electron beam through-aperture formed on an end face opposing said first focusing grid and three circular electron beam through-holes formed on another end face thereof opposing said anode for producing a main lens effect, and
- (2) voltage supply means for supplying:
- (d) a static first focusing voltage to said first focusing grid,
- (e) a static high voltage to said anode, and
- (f) a dynamic variable voltage to said second focusing grid, which varies in a range higher than said first focusing voltage and responds to an increase in a deflection angle of an electron beam which starts from said first focusing voltage.
