Appeal No. 1998-0907
Application 08/121,365
employs a structure for mounting a color selecting electrode
within the cathode ray tube. In particular, looking at Figure
3A, color selecting electrode 6 is mounted on a frame 7.
Supporting members 8 and 9 are adapted to engage with pins in
the cathode ray tube face plate. It is noted that supporting
members 9 extend away from the frame in a direction
perpendicular to the plane of the face plate. This is
different from the prior art of Figure 2 wherein all support
members 16 extend in a direction parallel to the plane of the
face plate.
Independent claim 7 is reproduced as follows:
7. A cathode ray tube comprising:
a) a planar face plate panel having a plurality of pins;
b) a rectangular frame having four side members;
c) a color selecting electrode mounted on said frame; and
d) four supporting members being engaged with said pins,
each joining with a central portion of one of said side
members of said frame, at least two opposed ones of said
supporting members extending away from said frame in a
direction perpendicular to the plane of said face plate panel,
Wherein the distance between a middle point of a side
member of said frame and a point where said supporting member
is joined with said frame is less than one-sixth of such side
frame.
