Abstract
Description
- Several proposals have been made on multiple electron beam type flat shaped picture display device, for example in the United States Patent Specification No. 3,935,500 and SID 78 Digest pp. 122 to 127. Furthermore, in order to obtain higher grade picture having larger number of picture elements three of the inventors of the present invention have invented and proposed a simultaneous scanning multiple electron beam type picture display apparatus described in the specification of the Japanese Patent Application Sho 53-106788 filed on August 30, 1978 (not yet examined) and also described in the specification of the United States Patent No. 4,227,117 patented on October 7, 1980. This apparatus can have very large number of the picture element in comparison with number of electron extracting apertures of its control electrode.
- The structure of picture image display apparatus of the above-mentioned described invention is shown in FIG. 1 which is an exploded view of the principal part of the above-mentioned apparatus. The apparatus comprises, as shown from the upper part to the lower part in FIG. 1, an
isolation electrode 200 having a plural number ofisolation walls 201 to define oblongisolated spaces 202, a row of predetermined number M (e.g. M=15) of parallel disposed linear thermionic cathodes 1 (i.e., line cathodes, each of which comprises a linear filament line to be heated by a low voltage, e.g., D.C. 10 V and electron emissive oxide coating thereon, and hereinafter is referred to as linear thermionic cathode) each being disposed in theisolated spaces 202, anextractor electrode 300 having a predetermined number N (e.g. N=107) of electronbeam passing apertures 300a disposed in rows below the linearthermionic cathodes 100, a row ofcontrol electrodes 400 for controlling beam intensity disposed parallelly in a direction perpendicular to those of said linear.thermionic cathodes 100 each having electronbeam passing openings 400a below theapertures 300a, an electronbeam forming electrode 500 having electron beam passing openings 500a below theopenings 400a, a row of vertical deflection electrodes comprising pairs of common-connectedfirst electrodes 600 and common-connected second electrodes 600', a row of horizontal deflection electrodes comprising pairs of common-connectedfirst electrodes 700 and common-connected second electrodes 700', an electricfield shielding electrode 800, ananode 900 of vapor- deposited thin aluminum film, and aphosphor screen 1000 formed on aface panel 1100 of a vacuum enclosure and under saidanode 900. Every electron beams e, e ... pass throughdeflection spaces deflection electrodes pairs 600, 600' ... and 700, 700' ... disposed regularly in the same order with respect to every electron beams as shown in FIG. 1. - In the operation of such multiple electron beam type flat display apparatus described in the above-mentioned specifications, scannings of beam spots on the phosphor screen are made in the known line-at-a-time type scanning, wherein ordinary time-sequential image signal is converted into a plural number of parallel signals. For example, by taking a case to display an image field raster having numbers of picture elements of 240 (in vertical direction) times 321 ( in horizontal direction), with regard to the horizontal scanning of the beam spots the raster is divided into a plural number N of vertically oblong sections, wherein the horizontal scannings are carried out parallelly in all of N sections. Then, each section has picture elements of n=
- The vertical scanning of the described apparatus is made by dividing the raster into a plural number M of horizontally oblong sections, and at first in the first section, for example in the uppermost section, the plural number of beam spots, which simultaneously scan, also scan vertically (downwards). When the vertical scanning in the first section is over and all the beam spots reach the bottoms of the first horizontally oblong sections, then the forming of electron beams from the electron from the first linear thermionic-cathode ends and the forming of electron beams from the electrons from the second linear thermionic cathode starts, and the vertical scannings of the beam spots start in the second horizontally oblong section and scan downwards in the same way as in the first section. The vertical scanning is made thus downwards to the bottom or M-th section by applying a saw-tooth wave having a period M, where V is the vertical scanning period of the ordinary television signal. For the above-mentioned example of the raster having the number of vertical picture element of 240, when the number M of the horizontally oblong sections is 15, each of the section has the horizontal scanning lines of a number of m=
- In such picture display apparatus, as elucidated in reference to FIG. 1, a high precision structure is required in positional relations and gaps between parallel electrodes, in order to obtain accurate scanning and beam current controlling necessary for high grade picture.
- In general, the electrodes other than cathodes of such flat type picture display apparatus are made of Ni-Cr-Fe alloy, and these electrodes have considerable sizes and are assembled with predetermined narrow gaps by utilizing insulating gap spacer substrates of glass or ceramic, and bonding of the above-mentioned members are made by using sealing glass (i.e., low melting temperature glass frit). In such construction punching on the insulating gap spacer of glass or ceramic requires difficult and rather expensive working, and furthermore, such glass or ceramic substrate has different thermal expansion coefficient from the electrode material inducing strain or crack of such insulating gap spacer substrate, leading to unstable or unreliable operations of the display apparatus.
- The present invention purports to improve the above-mentioned problem of the conventional flat type picture display apparatus. The present-invention enables to bond electrodes with high accuracy and without problem of strain or crack of insulating gap spacers.
- The bonding is made by using two parts of crystallizable sealing glass, namely a first part applied on an electrode and fired to crystallize to form hardened spacer, and a second part applied on the electrode or on the first part, the second part bonding the electrodes. Thus the bonded electrode construction includes a plural of electrodes, insulating gap spacers of first part of crystallizable sealing glass spacing a predetermined gap between the electrodes and bond of second part of crystallizable sealing glass bonding the electrodes.

- Further objects and advantages are elucidated more in detail referring to the attached drawings illustrating examples of the present invention.
- In FIG. 2, a
first electrode 1 and asecond electrode 6 having oblong throughholes third electrodes holes first electrode 1,second electrode 7, andthird electrode 4 are made of Ni-Cr-Fe alloy. These members are not necessarily limited to the electrodes per se, but may be any auxiliary or related member thereof, for example, supporting frame or current feeding conductor, or the like, and therefore, the word "electrode" should be taken as "electrode member" which includes the electrode as well as the above-mentioned auxiliary or related members. On a face of the first and thesecond electrodes holes electrodes strips third electrodes strips second electrode - Then, by assembling the
first electrode 1, thesecond electrode 6 and thethird electrode 4 inbetween, pressing and heating them, the pieces or strips of sealing glass which have become glaze melt and bond the electrodes or electrode members all together. In this bonding step, the previously crystallized pieces of strips, which are now hardened, serves as gap spacers to define necessary gaps between the electrodes. - FIG. 3 shows a step of another example embodying the present invention, wherein a plural number of
oblong electrodes first electrode 1. Theelectrodes first parts 3 formed directly on thefirst electrode 1 andsecond parts 38 formed on thefirst parts 3. Thefirst parts 3 are formed by, firstly applying crystallizable sealing glass powder (for example, the 7575W of Iwaki Glass Co., Ltd.) mixed with a known vehicle containing, for example, isoamyl acetate, by means of screen printing process, and secondly, after drying the mixture, firing the sealing glass powder at the crystallizing temperature of e.g. 450 to 500°C, thereby to crystallize and harden the sealing glass. - Then, the
second parts 38 are applied onto the hardened strips of thefirst parts 3, by means of, for example, the similar screen printing process to that of thefirst parts 3 followed by a glazing step. The same kind of crystallizable sealing glass as that of thefirst parts 3 is usable for thesecond parts 38, but different kind crystallizable sealing glass may be used. The glazing of thesecond parts 38 is made by heating it to the glazing temperature of e.g. 350 to 380°C, thereby obtaining reversibly hardened strips which is durable to inadvertent scratching. - Thereafter,
oblong electrodes first electrode 1 are put on the latter, pressed and the above-mentioned members are heated to the crystallizing temperature of the crystallizable. sealing glass of thesecond parts 38. Then, the crystallizable sealing glass is melt and changes to the crystallized state, and theoblong electrodes first electrode 1 with accurate gap defined by the thickness of thefirst parts 3. In the above-mentioned process, the glazing of thesecond parts 38 is preferable for the durability thereof, and reliability of the manufactured apparatus, but this may be dispensed with if scratching or damaging of thesecond parts 38 is not liable to occur. - FIG. 3A shows a modified example where the
second parts 38 of crystallizable sealing glass are disposed at the side of thefirst parts 3. In this case, in order to ensure reliable bonding, the thickness of thesecond parts 38 should be thicker than thefirst part 3; and for other matters, descriptions for the example of FIG. 3 is similarly applicable to this example. - FIG. 4 shows another example, wherein different from the example of FIG. 3, the crystallizable sealing
glass strips - FIG. 4A is a front view of an example which is a modification of the example of FIG. 3 or FIG. 4. In the constructions of FIG. 3 or FIG. 4, the largest gap space obtainable by the gap spacer is about 500 µm, and when a gap space larger than 500 µm, accurate and uniform gap space can not be formed. The construction of FIG. 4A shows an improved construction which can afford a desirable large gap by means of cascade gap spacer construction, where a
metal spacer 100 is bonded on theelectrode 1 by means of the double layer construction of the crystallizable sealing glass comprising thefirst part 3 and thesecond part 38 formed by the same way as those of the examples of FIG. 3 or FIG. 4. The way of FIG. 2 can be also applicable. Then another two layers of thefirst part 3 and thesecond part 38 are formed on themetal spacer 100 in the same way, and by this latter double layered sealing glass, theelectrode 4 is bonded to thespacer 100, and resultantly to theelectrode 1. - FIG. 4B is a front view of another example which is a modification of the example of FIG. 3 or FIG. 4. In this example, the positional order of the
first part 3 and thesecond part 38 between theelectrode 4 and thespacer 100 is opposite to the case of FIG. 4A. This construction is made by forming thefirst part 3 and thesecond part 38 on the lower face of theelectrode 4, instead of the upper face of thespacer 100. - FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view of another example, and FIG. 6 is a sectional front view of the example of FIG. 5, seen from the direction of an arrow VI of FIG. 5, wherein a row of parallel wire electrodes 12al, 12a2, 12bl, 12b2, l2cl, 12c2, ... as electron beam control electrodes are bonded between a
first electrode 1 and asecond electrode 6 havingoblong openings first electrode 1 and on the upper face of thesecond electrode 6, at such parts other than theopenings strips 15 are formed as shown by FIG. 7, which is an enlarged sectional view thereof, seen from the direction of an arrow VII of FIG. 5. Thestrips first part 3 of crystallizable sealing glass powder (for example, the 7575W of Iwaki Glass Co., Ltd.) mixed with a known vehicle containing, for example, isoamyl acetate, by means of screen printing process, thereafter, after drying the mixture firing the sealing glass powder at the crystallizing temperature of, e.g. 450 to 500°C, thereby to crystallize and harden the sealing glass to form afirst part 3 to serve as a spacer; and then secondly forming asecond part 38 by applying on thefirst part 3 by means of, for example, the similar screen printing process to that of thefirst part 3, followed by a glazing of thesecond part 38 by heating it to the glazing temperature of, e.g. 350 to 380°C, thereby forming the strips l5, 15 ... having sectional construction shown by FIG. 7. - Then, wires 12al, 12a2, l2bl ... as control electrodes are disposed at accurate positions on the
electrode 6 by means of appropriate step, for example by using a suitable jig, and then thefirst electrode 1 and thesecond electrodes 6 are pressed to the wire electrodes 12al, 12a2 ... , and the whole parts including thestrips second parts second electrode first electrode 1, thesecond electrode 6 and the wire electrodes 12al ... inbetween are each other insulated by thestrips 15 of crystallized sealing glass, consisting of thespacers 3, ... and thebonding layer 38, ..._ - In case each wire electrodes are to be impressed of different voltage or signal, the hair-pin loop shaped end parts shown by the dotted line should be cut away.
- On the contrary, when neighboring two wire electrodes are to be impressed of the same voltage or signal as pair electrodes, the hair-pin loop shaped end parts should be left as they are.
- In the bonding step by pressing and heating the
electrodes second electrodes - In the above-mentioned description, the control electrodes are taken for the examples, but the application of the present invention is not limited to the control electrodes, but is applicable to the deflection electrodes, convergence electrodes or other electrodes. Furthermore, the number of electrodes to form the electrode construction is not limited to two layers or three layers as shown by the attached drawings, but constructions having more layers of electrode can be realized by embodying the present invention.
- The apertures of the
electrodes - The electrode construction in accordance with the present invention is specially suitable in accurately assembling thin electrodes of a large size formed by photolithographic etching process.
