ELECTRON GUN ASSEMBLY FOR A CRT

摘要

An electron gun assembly includes a plurality of cathode assemblies and a plurality of spaced successive electrodes mounted on at least two electrically-insulative support rods. At least one of the electrodes comprises a deep-drawn substantially rectangular cup-shaped member having a base portion, a supporting flange portion, including a plurality of attachment tabs, and a sidewall extending therebetween. The sidewall includes a plurality of coined welding areas that provide a substantially flat welding surface having structural rigidity for securing studs thereto to facilitate attachment of the electrode to the support rods.
