Abstract
Abstract At least one of the focusing electrodes stages disposed between an acceleration electrodes stage and a rear focusing electrodes stage is constituted by first and second grid electrodes, confronting portions thereof having asymmetrical construction with respect to an electron beam axis. A constant focusing voltage is applied to the first grid electrode, and a dynamic focusing voltage gradually increasing or decreasing from the constant focusing voltage as the degree of beam deflection increases is applied to the second grid electrode.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
191 words
A cathode ray tube comprising: a plurality of electron guns disposed in a neck portion of a glass envelope of said cathode ray tube, each of said electron guns including a cathode electrodes stage, a front focusing electrodes stage, and a rear focusing electrodes stage, said stages being sequentially disposed in a direction of an axis of said cathode ray tube, said first focusing electrodes stage including a first focusing electrode, a second focusing electrode comprising of a first grid electrode and a second grid electrode, and a third grid electrode disposed between said first and second focusing electrodes; means for applying a constant focusing voltage to said first focusing electrode and said first grid electrode; means for applying to said second grid electrode a dynamic voltage superimposed on said constant voltage which dynamic focusing voltage gradually varies as a function of the deflection of an electron beam so as to asymmetrically converge the electron beam to produce substantially the same beam spot configuration on said tube for any deflection of said beam; and means for applying a high voltage to said third grid electrode and said rear focusing electrodes stage.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
90 words
A cathode ray tube according to claim 1 wherein said first grid electrode is provided on a surface thereof confronting to said second grid electrode with plate shaped projections disposed on both sides of apertures for passing the electron beams, and said second grid electrode is provided on a surface thereof confronting to said first grid electrode with upper and lower plate shaped projections such that said plate shaped projections of said first and second grid electrodes are superposed perpendicularly to each other but not in contact with each other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
A cathode ray tube according to claim 1 wherein each of said first and second grid electrodes is formed of a plate provided with vertically elongated apertures aranged horizontally.
