Cathode ray tube socket with a spark gap

摘要

In a cathode ray tube socket, contacts to be respectively connected with terminal pins of a cathode ray tube are housed in a body, which has formed therein a chamber for a pair of electrode holders, the electrode holders being removably and adjustably supported in position within the chamber by cooperating projections and depressions, each electrode holder having fitted therein an electrode plate, and semispherical electrode portions projecting from the electrode plates are disposed adjacent each other to define therebetween a spark gap, one of the electrode plates being electrically connected with a contact for high voltage use.
