The invention is a color cathode-ray tube having a rectangular front face connected to a funnel shaped rear part, a neck connected to the rear part and having an electron gun therein, the gun is used to generate beams intended to scan the front face under the influence of a deflection device placed on the neck of the tube. The deflection device comprising correction magnets placed on the periphery of the device in locations closest to the front face and a magnetic screen within the tube having an opening for passage of the electron beams, wherein the opening has notches in its periphery. The notches are arranged so as to face at least one pair of correction magnets.

Color cathode-ray tube having internal magnetic screening

Deflection yoke for cathode-ray tubes with a north/south geometry correction comprising a pair of horizontal deflection coils and a pair of vertical deflection coils, the two pairs being isolated one from the other by a separator, a ferrite ring at least partly covering the deflection coils and having a flared front part, the deflection yoke comprising in its front region at least one pair of magnetic means to modify locally the magnetic field in the said front region and to correct the geometry of the image created on the screen of the tube, the magnetic means being placed in the space in such a way that, for a plane containing the longitudinal axis of the deflection yoke and the axis of symmetry of a magnetic means, and for the point M of the plain corresponding to the point of minimum coordinates of the said means, the intersection of the ring with is at least partly in its front part, located outside the region delimited by the half line passing through M and perpendicular to Z, and the half line passing through M and making an angle of 45&#xb0; with.
