Abstract
Abstract A deflection yoke includes a core having front and rear grooved end caps for securing conductor turns at the front and rear of the yoke. A third set of conductor grooves is disposed on the inside of the core at a position between the front and rear end caps for securing conductor turns at that position for forming precision-disposed non-radial active turns. The coils formed by the conductor turns may be toroidal or saddle, depending on the return conductor disposition.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
149 words
A deflection yoke, conductors of which lie along nonradial paths with respect to the central longitudinal axis of said yoke, comprising: an annular core; first and second sets of grooves circumferentially spaced and disposed at the respective entrance and exit portions of said core; a third set of circumferentially spaced grooves disposed about the inner surface of said core at a position between said entrance and exit portions of said core; and a conductor wound in a plurality of turns relative to said core for forming horizontal and vertical deflection coil portions, at least some of the conductor turns extending along the inside surface of said core engaging respective grooves of each of said first, second and third sets of said grooves for fixedly retaining said conductor turns along respective nonradial paths relative to said axis between said first and third and said third and second sets of grooves.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
149 words
A deflection yoke, conductors of which lie along nonradial paths with respect to the central longitudinal axis of said yoke, comprising: an annular core; first and second sets of grooves circumferentially spaced and disposed at the respective entrance and exit portions of said core; a third set of circumferentially spaced grooves disposed about the inner surface of said core at a position between said entrance and exit portions of said core; and a conductor wound in a plurality of turns relative to said core for forming horizontal and vertical deflection coil portions, at least some of the conductor turns extending along the inside surface of said core engaging respective grooves of each of said first, second and third sets of said grooves for fixedly retaining said conductor turns along respective nonradial paths relative to said axis between said first and third and said third and second sets of grooves.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 1 wherein said first and second sets of grooves are contained in first and second annular members disposed at the entrance and exit portions of said core.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
41 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 2 wherein said third set of grooves is contained in a third annular member disposed adjacent to said inner surface of said core at a position between said entrance and exit portions of said core.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
21 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 1 wherein said conductor is wound relative to said core for forming saddle-type deflection coils.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 1 wherein said conductor is wound relative to said core for forming toroidal deflection coils.
