Abstract

Abstract A deflection yoke includes at least three positioning units mounted on one end of a coil separator having its other end secured against the neck of a cathode ray tube, the units permitting an adjustment in the orientation of the deflection yoke relative to the tube axis when fixedly mounting the yoke about the tube while maintaining it spaced from the tube wall. Each of the positioning unit comprises a support plate secured to the one end of the coil separator, and a threaded bolt adjustably and threadably engaging the support plate and having its free end held in abutment against the tube wall. Relative adjustment of the threaded bolts enables the axis of the deflection yoke to be disposed at a desired orientation with respect to the tube axis.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 184 words
In a deflection yoke comprising an annular core, a horizontal deflection coil of a saddle configuration, a vertical deflection coil having a conductor extending along the inside of the core, a coil separator interposed between the both coils having a recess in its front end and having a plurality of tongues at its rear end, the recess being defined by a radially outwardly extending wall and a peripheral wall, the tongues being adapted to be disposed around the neck of a cathode ray tube, and a clamping band for clamping the tongues against the neck; the improvement which comprises at least three positioning units disposed adjacent to the front end of the coil separator at substantially uniform spacing around the periphery thereof, each of the positioning units comprising a support plate having a threaded bore which extends toward the tube wall and an adjusting bolt means having a threaded portion threadably engaging the threaded bore and a head portion directly contacting the tube, the bolt means being turned into contact with the tube wall to thereby support a front portion of the deflection yoke.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 184 words
In a deflection yoke comprising an annular core, a horizontal deflection coil of a saddle configuration, a vertical deflection coil having a conductor extending along the inside of the core, a coil separator interposed between the both coils having a recess in its front end and having a plurality of tongues at its rear end, the recess being defined by a radially outwardly extending wall and a peripheral wall, the tongues being adapted to be disposed around the neck of a cathode ray tube, and a clamping band for clamping the tongues against the neck; the improvement which comprises at least three positioning units disposed adjacent to the front end of the coil separator at substantially uniform spacing around the periphery thereof, each of the positioning units comprising a support plate having a threaded bore which extends toward the tube wall and an adjusting bolt means having a threaded portion threadably engaging the threaded bore and a head portion directly contacting the tube, the bolt means being turned into contact with the tube wall to thereby support a front portion of the deflection yoke.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 1 in which the peripheral wall has a slant formed in it so as to extend toward the tube wall.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 1 wherein the head portion of the bolt means comprises a semi-spherical head, a washer and a cap surrounding the washer and head.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 1 in which the support plate comprises a boss and a base carrying the boss, the base being secured to a wall of the recess.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 20 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 4 in which the base is secured to the peripheral wall by screw means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 32 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 4 in which the base includes a pawl engageable with an edge of the recess and a limb bearing against the radial wall of the recess.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 25 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 6 in which the edge of the recess is formed with a flange which is engaged by the pawl.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 31 words
A deflection yoke according to claim 7 in which the peripheral wall is V-shaped in section, with the bottom of the base which engages the peripheral wall having a complementary configuration.
