Claim 3
Dependent Claim 199 words
An adjustable mount for holding a deflection yoke in operating position relative to a kinescope, comprising: outer housing means including means for attaching said housing to said kinescope; inner housing means sitting coaxially within said outer housing means and adapted to slide axially and rotatably therewithin; front holding member means adapted to engage a front portion of said yoke such as to prevent rotational movement and axial movement in a first direction between said front holding member means and said yoke; rear holding member means including means adapted to engage a rear portion of said yoke for coaxially aligning said rear holding member means and said yoke; said inner housing means including retaining means including tabs extending from a front portion of said inner housing means for retaining said rear holding member means and for fixedly retaining said front holding member means such that said yoke is held fixedly within said inner housing means; said front holding member means includes slots through which said tabs extend for positioning said front holding member means relative to said inner housing means and for fixedly retaining it thereto; and clamping means for preventing undesirable movement between said inner and outer housing means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 199 words
An adjustable mount for holding a deflection yoke in operating position relative to a kinescope, comprising: outer housing means including means for attaching said housing to said kinescope; inner housing means sitting coaxially within said outer housing means and adapted to slide axially and rotatably therewithin; front holding member means adapted to engage a front portion of said yoke such as to prevent rotational movement and axial movement in a first direction between said front holding member means and said yoke; rear holding member means including means adapted to engage a rear portion of said yoke for coaxially aligning said rear holding member means and said yoke; said inner housing means including retaining means including tabs extending from a front portion of said inner housing means for retaining said rear holding member means and for fixedly retaining said front holding member means such that said yoke is held fixedly within said inner housing means; said front holding member means includes slots through which said tabs extend for positioning said front holding member means relative to said inner housing means and for fixedly retaining it thereto; and clamping means for preventing undesirable movement between said inner and outer housing means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 79 words
An adjustable deflection yoke mount according to claim 2 wherein said front holding member means includes a first front ring member which fits over a front portion of the ferrite core of said yoke and which first front ring member includes indexing tabs for engaging with indexing tab receiving portions of a second front ring member for preventing rotational movement therebetween, said second front ring member including said slots for engaging with said tabs of said inner housing means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 83 words
An adjustable deflection yoke mount according to claim 3 wherein said rear holding member means includes a first rear ring member which fits over a rear portion of the ferrite core of said yoke and a second rear member which has centering portions which engage with said first rear ring member for centering said yoke relative to said second rear ring member, said second rear ring member being adapted to be received within said inner housing by said rear holding member retaining means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 36 words
An adjustable deflection yoke mount according to claim 4 wherein said first front and rear ring members are adapted to receive conductors of said yoke windings for positioning the successive conductor windings relative to each other.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 164 words
