Abstract
Disclosed is for improving a shadow mask having a open type slot combining a plurality of slots of shadow mask in order to improve the brightness of a color CRT (Cathode Ray Tube). A plurality of slots are formed so that electron beams are passed through the slots in vertical direction, and a vertical pitch distance PvC between slots located around horizontal center line is longer than a vertical pitch distance PvE between slots located around horizontal edge. Therefore, a distortion and an inferiority which are may be generated in fabricating the shadow mask can be prevented, and the shadow mask is able to cope with vibration pressed on the shadow mask by improving strength of boundary part.
Claims17
A tension-type shadow mask for a color CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) having a panel formed with a fluorescent screen on an inner surface of the panel, a funnel connected with the panel, and an electron gun assembly attached at a neck portion of the funnel for generating electron beams, the shadow mask being installed near the fluorescent screen of the panel formed with a plurality of vertical slots for the passage of electron beams therethrough, wherein a vertical pitch distance Pv between upper ends of the adjacent slots in the same column located in a center of the shadow mask is greater than a vertical pitch distance PvE between upper ends of the adjacent slots in the same column located in an edge from the center of the shadow mask.
A tension-type shadow mask for a color CRT having a panel formed with a fluorescent screen on an inner surface of the panel, a funnel connected with the panel, and an electron gun assembly attached at a neck portion of the funnel for generating electron beams, the shadow mask being installed near the fluorescent screen of the panel formed with a plurality of vertical slots for passing electron beams therethrough, wherein a bridge width Bw between ends of adjacent slots in the same column formed in the shadow mask in a center of the shadow mask is less than a bridge width BwE between ends of adjacent slots in the same column located in an edge of the shadow mask.
