Abstract
Abstract A method of making a color selection electrode for a color television display tube in which apertured electrodes are placed in contact with metallic coatings on opposite sides of an insulating foil and diffusion bonded thereto by heat and pressure, and thereafter the metallic coatings and insulating material selectively etched to form apertures corresponding to the electrodes therein.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
146 words
In the method of manufacturing a color selection means of a first and second system of electrodes for a color display television tube comprising a pair of metal electrodes with aperatures used to focus electron beams, said electrodes being separated by an insulating spacing member, at least one of said apertured metal electrodes being initially separate from said insulating spacer member, the steps comprising providing a metallic coating on at least one surface of the insulating member, placing an apertured electrode in contact with said metallic coating, heating said electrode and said insulating member with the metallic coating in contact therewith and applying sufficient pressure while heating to effect a diffusion bond therebetween providing the other aperatured electrode on an opposite surface of said insulating member, and thereafter selectively etching said metallic coating and insulating member to form apertures therein corresponding to those in said electrodes.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
146 words
In the method of manufacturing a color selection means of a first and second system of electrodes for a color display television tube comprising a pair of metal electrodes with aperatures used to focus electron beams, said electrodes being separated by an insulating spacing member, at least one of said apertured metal electrodes being initially separate from said insulating spacer member, the steps comprising providing a metallic coating on at least one surface of the insulating member, placing an apertured electrode in contact with said metallic coating, heating said electrode and said insulating member with the metallic coating in contact therewith and applying sufficient pressure while heating to effect a diffusion bond therebetween providing the other aperatured electrode on an opposite surface of said insulating member, and thereafter selectively etching said metallic coating and insulating member to form apertures therein corresponding to those in said electrodes.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
15 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein the insulating foil is a synthetic foil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein the synthetic foil is a polyimide foil.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
37 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 in which the insulating member is provided with metallic coatings on opposite sides, the other electrode being formed by selective etching of the metal coatings and of the insulating member.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
31 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 in which the other electrode is an apertured electrode and is secured to the metallic coating of the insulating member by heat and pressure.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
41 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 in which one electrode is a metal plate having a plurality of row-like apertures and the other electrode comprises a plurality of conductive strips positioned between the row-like apertures and being connected together electrically.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
31 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 in which both electrodes each comprise a grid of parallel metal strips, the strips of one grid crossing the strips of the other grid.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
154 words
A method as claimed in claim 7 in which one grid is positioned over a cylindrical surface of a mold, a member of insulating material having metallic coatings on opposite surfaces is placed over the grid with one of the metallic coatings in contact therewith, a second grid is placed over the insulating member and in contact with the metallic coating on the surface opposite the first grid, the ends of the grids being clamped in clamping members secured to a common base member having a greater coefficient of expension than that of the grids, the assembly being heated to a temperature at which, as a result of the difference in expansion between the base member and the grids, the grids are stretched beyond their elastic limits and a diffusion bond is produced between the grids and the metallic coatings, the metallic coatings being thereafter etched away between strips belonging to the same grid.
