Funnel structure of cathode-ray tube
View Patent ↗A color cathode-ray tube has an optimum funnel structure so that it has a slim tube structure while reducing stress caused by its internal vacuum pressure. The color cathode-ray tube satisfies a relation of 0.12×L′<S<0.27×L′ where “L” represents a length from a seal line, where a panel and a funnel are sealably coupled together, to a yoke line of the funnel in an axial direction of the tube, “L′” represents ½ of the length of the seal line, “A” represents ½ of a seal stress adjustment line formed by connecting points spaced apart from the seal line by a distance of “L×0.67” toward the yoke portion, and “S” represents a difference between “L′” and “A”. The cathode-ray tube of the present invention has an optimum funnel structure capable of providing an effect of reducing the high stress conventionally generated around the seal line and yoke line by 25% and 53%, respectively. In addition, it is possible to secure desired resistance to impact, and to achieve an improvement in process yield in accordance with the reduction of the stress generated at the funnel in a vacuum state.
