Abstract

A flat panel of the present invention is provided with a mold match line which is formed in a manner that H2 (a distance between a first plane passing through the mold match line and a second plane tangent to an outer contour of the face portion and parallel to the first plane) satisfies the following equation: 8≦H2≦T1×2.24−D 0.5 ×0.027 when T2 /T1≦1.5 and D≦500 mm; 8≦H2≦T1+T1/6.42−D 0.5 ×0.027 when T2/T1≦1.5 and 500 mm<D≦670 mm; and 8≦H2 ≦T1+T1/0.856−D 0.5 ×0.027 when T2/T1≦1.5 and D>670 mm.

Claims (33)

1. A flat panel for use in a cathode ray tube, comprising:

a face portion having a center portion for displaying picture images and a periphery portion;

a skirt portion extending from the periphery portion of the face portion and having an seal edge on its back edge;

a mold match line formed on an outer periphery of the skirt portion; and

a blend round portion joining the face portion with the skirt portion,

wherein a mean outer contour curvature radius is equal to or greater than 10,000 mm, a wedge rate is equal to or less than 1.5, a diameter length D of the center portion is equal to or less than 500 mm, and a distance H2 satisfies the following equation:

8 ≦H 2 ≦T 1×2.24 −D 0.5 ×0.027

where the distance H2 is a distance between a first plane passing through the mold match line and a second plane tangent to an outer contour of the face portion and parallel to the first plane.

2. The flat panel of claim 1 , wherein an overall height H of the flat panel satisfies the following equation:

H/D≦0.145

where the overall height H is a distance between the second plane and a third plane passing through the seal edge of the skirt portion.

3. A flat panel for use in a cathode ray tube, comprising:

a face portion having a center portion for displaying picture images and a periphery portion;

a skirt portion extending from the periphery portion of the face portion and having an seal edge on its back edge;

a mold match line formed on an outer periphery of the skirt portion; and

a blend round portion joining the face portion with the skirt portion,

wherein a mean outer contour curvature radius is equal to or greater than 10,000 mm, a wedge rate is equal to or less than 1.5, a diameter length D of the center portion is 500 mm<D≦670 mm, and a distance H2 satisfies the following equation:

 8 ≦H 2 ≦T 1 +T 1/6.42 −D 0.5 ×0.027

where the distance H2 is a distance between a first plane passing through the mold match line and a second plane tangent to an outer contour of the face portion and parallel to the first plane.

4. The flat panel of claim 3 , wherein an overall height H of the flat panel satisfies the following equation:

H/D≦0.145

where the overall height H is a distance between the second plane and a third plane passing through the seal edge of the skirt portion.

5. A flat panel for use in a cathode ray tube, comprising:

a face portion having a center portion for displaying picture images and a periphery portion;

a skirt portion extending from the periphery portion of the face portion and having an seal edge on its back edge;

a mold match line formed on an outer periphery of the skirt portion; and

a blend round portion joining the face portion with the skirt portion,

wherein a mean outer contour curvature radius is equal to or greater than 10,000 mm, a wedge rate is equal to or less than 1.5, a diameter length D of the center portion is greater than 670 mm, and a distance H2 satisfies the following equation:

8 ≦H 2 ≦T 1 +T 1/0.856 −D 0.5 ×0.027

where the distance H2 is a distance between a first plane passing through the mold match line and a second plane tangent to an outer contour of the face portion and parallel to the first plane.

6. The flat panel of claim 5 , wherein an overall height H of the flat panel satisfies the following equation:

H/D≦0.145

where the overall height H is a distance between the second plane and a third plane passing through the seal edge of the skirt portion.
