Abstract

Assuming an aperture diameter of an electron beam aperture formed in a shield cup as Vsc, an aperture diameter of an electron beam aperture formed in an inner electrode of a focusing electrode as V5, and a distance between the electron beam aperture formed in the shield cup and the inner electrode as L, the above-mentioned aperture diameter Vsc, the aperture diameter V5 and the distance L are determined to satisfy tan θ=(V5−Vsc)/2L≧0.08. Due to such a constitution, it is possible to enhance the degree of vacuum in the inside of a cathode ray tube and, it is possible to prevent a getter for elevating the degree of vacuum in the inside of the cathode ray tube and for maintaining the elevated degree of the vacuum from being scattered to the electron gun side thus preventing the deterioration of the characteristics of the electron gun.

Dependent claims

A cathode ray tube having an electron gun which includes at least three cathodes which are disposed in an in-line arrangement, a first grid electrode, a second grid electrode, a third grid electrode, a fourth grid electrode, a focusing electrode having an inner electrode, a final electrode, and a shield cup which is arranged on a face plate side of the final electrode, and an antenna getter mounted on the shield cup,

the electron gun emitting a center electron beam and two side electron beams which are arranged to sandwich the center electron beam therebetween,
assuming an aperture diameter of the center electron beam aperture formed in the shield cup as Vscc, an aperture diameter of the center electron beam aperture formed in an inner electrode as V5c, and a distance between the electron beam aperture formed in the shield cup and the inner electrode as L, a relationship tan θc=(V5c−Vscc)/2L≧0.08 is established, and
assuming an aperture diameter of a side electron beam aperture formed in a shield cup as Vscs, an aperture diameter of side electron beam aperture formed in an inner electrode as V5s, and a distance between the electron beam aperture formed in the shield cup and the inner electrode as L, a relationship tan θ=(V5s−Vscs)/2L≧0.11 is established.
