Abstract
Abstract The display window (11) of a display tube is manufactured from a plate (21) having grooves (22), which plate is fused to a plate (20), so that ducts (25) are present in the display window (11). The phosphor screen (14) is present on the inside of plate (20). The ducts (25) communicate at one end with a common supply duct (26) having an inlet aperture (27) and communicate at the other end with a common exhaust duct (28) having an outlet aperture (29). A coolant is forced through the ducts (25) for cooling the phosphor screen (14).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
117 words
A display tube comprising a glass envelope having a substantially rectangular display window provided with a phosphor screen, in which window are means present at a short distance from the phosphor screen to cool the screen by means of a coolant, characterized in that the display window is formed by two plates fused together and that the means are formed by grooves provided in one of the plates on the side facing the other plate, which grooves extend substantially parallel to one of the rectangular sides of the display / window and one end of which communicates with a common supply duct and the other end of which communicates with a common exhaust duct for the coolant.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
117 words
A display tube comprising a glass envelope having a substantially rectangular display window provided with a phosphor screen, in which window are means present at a short distance from the phosphor screen to cool the screen by means of a coolant, characterized in that the display window is formed by two plates fused together and that the means are formed by grooves provided in one of the plates on the side facing the other plate, which grooves extend substantially parallel to one of the rectangular sides of the display / window and one end of which communicates with a common supply duct and the other end of which communicates with a common exhaust duct for the coolant.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
