Abstract A metal ring preventing the implosion of a cathode-ray tube is fitted on a maximum outer peripheral length part, i.e., the so-called mold match line formation part, of a cathode-ray tube (the so-called Braun tube) of a television receiver in order to provide an implosion-proof cathode-ray tube. The cathode-ray tube implosion-preventing metal ring (10) is formed so that at least two metal strip members (11) are each formed with welding reference projections (13) at the end portions thereof, and these metal strip members (11) are bent so that an annular body formed by connecting these metal strip members (11) has a shape similar to the mold match line formation part of the cathode-ray tube, and they are then welded together while being positioned by the welding reference projections (13). It is also possible to provide a bending reference projection (14) in the central portion of each metal strip member (11), and bend each metal strip member (11) while positioning it by means of the projection (14). For each welding reference projections (13) and the bending reference projections (14), a rectangular part formed on each metal strip member (11) which projects in the widthwise direction thereof and has a predetermined length in the longitudinal direction thereof is sufficient. It is also possible to provide a fixing part (15) on each metal strip member (11), and also form a step on at least the part of each metal strip member (11) including the fixing part (15).
A metal ring adapted to be fitted on a maximum outer length part of a cathode-ray tube for preventing the implosion of the cathode-ray tube, said metal ring comprising at least two metal strip members each formed with the same shaped welding reference projections at the end portions thereof, said strip members including fixing parts between said end portions and a central bending reference projection between said fixing parts, said strip members being bent while being positioned by means of said central bending reference projection so that an annular body formed by connecting these metal strip members has a shape similar to said maximum outer peripheral length part of the cathode-ray tube, said metal strip members being welded together while being positioned by overlapping said welding reference projections.
