Abstract
Abstract A color display tube having a magnetic screening cap provided with four resilient metal plates extending radially in the direction of the corner points of the display screen at the edge of the end of the cap having the smallest diameter. The plates press against the electrically conductive inner coating of the cone and which would otherwise prevent electrons pass between the screening cap and the conductive inner coating of the cone from impinging upon the display screen.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
123 words
A colour display tube comprising an envelope having a rectangular display window, a cone having an electrically conductive inner coating, and a neck, a display screen on the inner surface of the display window, a colour selection electrode disposed in said envelope at some distance in front of the display screen, means to generate at least one electrode beam disposed in the neck and a magnetic screening cap which extends in the cone from the colour selection electrode towards the neck, the edge of the magnetic screening cap adjacent the neck being provided with four radially extending resilient metal plates bent in the direction of the corners of the display screen, which plates press against the electrically conductive inner coating of the cone.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
123 words
