Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a display device comprising a cathode-ray tube with an envelope 1. A deflection unit 10 is mounted on the envelope 1. The envelope 1 has a number of reference planes in the form of V-shaped grooves which are provided, for example, on positioning studs 14. The deflection unit 10 is provided with adjustable camming members 15 which lie against a corresponding reference plane. The position of the deflection unit 10 relative to the envelpe 1 can be adjusted dependent upon the adjustable camming members 15.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A cathode ray tube display device comprising: an envelope formed by a display window, a neck and a funnel-shaped portion which connects the display window to the neck, a plurality of reference surfaces on said envelope; a plurality of adjustable elements engaging said reference surfaces; a deflection unit mounted on the envelope at the area of the transition from the neck to the conical part of the envelope, and attached to said adjustable elements for connecting the deflection unit to the envelope, the position of the deflection unit relative to the envelope being adjustable by adjusting the adjustable elements.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A cathode ray tube display device comprising: an envelope formed by a display window, a neck and a funnel-shaped portion which connects the display window to the neck, a plurality of reference surfaces on said envelope; a plurality of adjustable elements engaging said reference surfaces; a deflection unit mounted on the envelope at the area of the transition from the neck to the conical part of the envelope, and attached to said adjustable elements for connecting the deflection unit to the envelope, the position of the deflection unit relative to the envelope being adjustable by adjusting the adjustable elements.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A display device as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the reference surfaces are the walls of V-shaped grooves provided on the envelope.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
56 words
A display device as claimed in claim 2, characterized in that the adjustable elements are camming members each having a conical camming surface, each camming member lying with its conical surface against a corresponding wall of a V-shaped groove, and each camming member being rotatable about an axis eccentric with respect to the concial camming surface.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
77 words
A display device as claimed in claim 3, characterized in that three V-shaped grooves are provided on the envelope, the walls of each V-shaped groove being substantially perpendicular to each other, and the six walls of the V-shaped grooves forming six reference surfaces, and the deflection unit being provided with six adjustable camming members which are arranged in pairs, side-by-side, and each conical camming surface of a camming member lying against a wall of a V-shaped groove.
