Abstract In an electron gun for a cathode-ray tube of the type wherein a cathode, control grid electrode, an accelerating electrode and first and second cylindrical electrodes are disposed in the order named and supported and electrically insulated from each other by electrically insulating rods within a neck portion of an envelope, whereby a main electron lens is formed between said first and second cylindrical electrodes, the second cylindrical electrode comprises an enlarged diameter portion and a reduced diameter end portion which is closer to the cathode and is supported by one end of each of the supporting rods; and the first cylindrical electrode has (1) a neck portion which is extended through the reduced diameter end portion of the second cylindrical electrode coaxially thereof and radially inwardly spaced apart therefrom, and (2) an enlarged diameter front portion which has the diameter greater than that of said neck portion, is extended coaxially therefrom into said enlarged diameter portion of said second cylindrical electrode.
An electron gun for a cathode-ray tube of the type wherein a cathode, a control grid electrode, an accelerating electrode, a first cylindrical electrode and a second cylindrical electrode are disposed in the order named in the neck portion of an envelope and are supported and electrically insulated from each other by electrically insulating supporting rods, whereby a main electron lens is formed between said first and second cylindrical electrodes, CHARACTERIZED in that one end of said second cylindrical electrode which is closer to said cathode is reduced in diameter and is supported by one end of said supporting rods; and said first cylindrical electrode has a neck portion which is extended through said reduced end portion of said second cylindrical electrode coaxially thereof in radially spaced apart relationship therewith, and an enlarged diameter front portion which is extended from the front end of said neck portion coaxially thereof into the enlarged diameter portion of said second cylindrical electrode contiguous with said reduced diameter end portion thereof.

An electron gun as set forth in claim 1 further characterized in that said enlarged portion of said first cylindrical electrode located in said enlarged portion of said second cylindrical electrode has the length (P 1 ) substantially equal to the inner diameter (P 1 D) thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
An electron gun as set forth in claim 1 further characterized in that the inner diameter (P 2 D) of said enlarged portion of said cylindrical electrode is from 75 to 90% of the inner diameter (BD) of said neck portion of said envelope.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
65 words
An electron gun as set forth in claim 1 further characterized in that the inner diameter (P 1 D) of said enlarged diameter front portion of said first cylindrical electrode which is located in said enlarged diameter portion of said second cylindrical electrode is from 65 to 80% of the inner diameter (P 2 D) of said enlarged diameter portion of said second cylindrical electrode.
