Abstract:
In a shadow mask support means comprising a bi-metal piece having one end secured to a shadow mask frame with the other end left free, and a leaf spring secured at one end to said free end of the bi-metal piece and extending therefrom toward a pin provided on a side wall of a face panel, the improvement residing in that a metallic plate portion disposed between said frame and said spring is so arranged that it is displaced due to thermal deflection of the bi-metal at the end adjacent to said pin by an amount smaller than the displacement at the opposite end.

A base for an annular lamp comprising a pair of semicylindrical members and base pins upstanding from one of these members. Each base pin is provided with an axial slit for holding therein an external lead of a glass bulb.
Abstract:
Luminous flux and luminous efficiency of a 40 watt fluorescent lamp comprising a ballast specified by the I.E.C. Publication 82 (covering Ballast for fluorescent lamps) is greatly improved by employing an improved tube characterized by: HAVING THE NOMINAL TUBE LENGTH OF 1,200 MM AND THE INNER DIAMETER OF 20 MM TO 25 MM, PROVIDED INSIDE AT EACH END OF THE TUBE WITH AN ELECTRODE E having the length l of 15 mm to 55 mm inward (, from the end face of each cap C as measured as shown in FIG. 2,) and containing mixed rare gas inside the tube, the rare gas having composition ratio represented by any point within a diagonal region defined by connecting the following points (a) to (e) and (a) with straight lines in the following order, on a trilinear chart for xenon, krypton and argon mixture: A.Xe: 1%, Kr: 0%, A: 99% b. Xe: 15%, Kr: 0%, A: 85% c.Xe: 15%, Kr: 65%, A: 20% d.Xe: 0%, Kr: 80%, A: 20% e.Xe: 0%, Kr: 5% A: 95% the pressure of the mixed gas being between 1.0 mmHg and 3.5 mmHg at the temperature of 20*C.
Abstract:
A semi-conductor device, such as diode transistor, field effect transistor with a Schottky barrier, has a separation space formed underneath the insulating film covering a major surface portion of the semiconductor substrate. This separation space is disposed adjacent to a metal layer accommodated in a recess in the substrate and extending through an opening in the insulating film, so as to eliminate unreasonable reverse leakage current, by effectively insulating the Schottky barrier from the electric charge accumulation layer beneath the insulating film.
Abstract:
In a discharge tube of saturated metal vapor pressure type containing high-pressure gaseous or vaporized metals, the temperature of the coolest points existing at both ends of the discharge tube can be raised by forming a layer or layers of a metal or metals of high melting point, low vapor pressure and good thermal conductivity, such as niobium, on the outer wall at the ends of the discharge tube; thereby, providing better radiant emission, especially higher color temperature and an improved color rendering property compared with conventional high-pressure metal-vapor discharge tubes. The discharge tube of the abovementioned construction can be manufactured easily and has a longer life under burning conditions corresponding to those for conventional type high-pressure metal-vapor discharge tubes.
Abstract:
A target assembly of an image pick-up tube including a face plate hermetically fastened on one open end of a tubular envelope of the image pick-up tube through pressure welded binding member composed of indium which is interposed therebetween. A support member supporting therein a target substrate is mounted on the inner surface of the face plate and secured thereto through its peripheral wall combined with the binding member. On the peripheral wall is formed a groove extending circumferentially thereof. The binding member combines with the groove so that the support member favorably fastened to the face plate.
Abstract:
A shadow mask support means including three leaf springs for supporting a rectangular shadow mask on a face panel at three sides of a frame of the mask, said three leaf springs having a predetermined relationship with respect to the spring constant and deflection so that, even when the image tube is subjected to a shock load or the shadow mask in thermally expanded, the change in the relative position of the shadow mask and the face panel is minimized.
Abstract:
A glow discharge tube for code display in which a plurality of cold cathodes in the shape of a plate comprising a segmented portion forming a luminous code and a lead connected to that portion are piled up with a window-frame-shaped insulating plate interposing between each layer to construct a cold cathode structural body and interposing the said lead between the said insulating plates in order to prevent a negative glow at the said lead portion.
Abstract:
In a semiconductor device with a four-layer structure having the so-called thyristor characteristic, when the control electrode for controlling its breakover voltage is constructed by the Schottky barrier and a means to apply a stress to the barrier, the breakover voltage of the said semiconductor device can be controlled by the stress. If this device is assembled in a circuit system, the circuit system can be set to either the ''''off'''' or ''''on'''' state, corresponding to the applied stress.
Abstract:
A deep aluminum-diffused P-type layer and a shallow-diffused layer of a preselected conductivity type are simultaneously diffused into a semiconductor substrate by a double diffusion process which employs a composite impurity source. The composite impurity source consists of an aluminum receptacle having a predetermined amount of at least one shallow diffusing, conductivity type determining impurity enclosed therein. The receptacle may be fabricated from a uniformly thick aluminum foil and the shallow diffusing impurity may consist of, for example, boron, phosphorus, indium and/or antimony.
