Abstract
Abstract The deflection yoke for use in the in-line type color cathode-ray tube comprises a horizontal deflection yoke, vertical deflection yoke and core, and the vertical deflection coil is an or/and auxiliary magnetic field correcting means which generates the vertical deflection magnetic field of the screen side in the form of a pincushion. A set of correction members made of mild magnetic material consisting of circular lugs which extend in the circumferential direction of the neck of the cathode-ray tube and center lugs which extend in the direction of the tube axis are provided at the north and south positions between the horizontal deflection coil at the electron gun side of the deflection yoke and the vertical deflection coil to simultaneously correct misconvergence in the horizontal and vertical directions at the corners of the fluorescent screen.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
256 words
A deflection yoke for use in a color cathode-ray tube provided on its neck with a plurality of electron guns for emitting three electron beams in an in-line arrangement onto a screen, which comprises (a) an annular core, (b) a set of horizontal deflection coils, wound in the form of a saddle, for generating a pincushion horizontal deflection magnetic field at the screen side of the tube, (c) a set of vertical deflection coils located outside said horizontal deflection coils and toroidally wound around said core for generating a barrel distributed magnetic field at the gun side of the tube, (d) a coil separator positioned between said horizontal deflection coils and said vertical deflection coils to electrically separate said deflection coils, (e) pincushion deflection means for generating a pincushion type vertical deflection magnetic field at the screen side of said deflection yoke, and (f) a set of correction means, of a mild magnetic material, located between said horizontal deflection coils and said vertical deflection coils at north-south (vertical) positions of an electron gun side of said deflection yoke, each correction means including circular lugs which extend in a circumferential direction of said neck of the cathode-ray tube to correct horizontal misconvergence at corners of the tube screen and a center lug integral with said circular lugs, which extends in the direction of the tube axis of said cathode-ray tube and has a smaller length in the circumferential direction of said neck than said circular lugs to correct vertical misconvergence at the corners of the tube screen.
