A projection cathode ray tube has a target that is mechanically adjustable by means external to the evacuated envelope. The target extends into the evacuated space and is mounted upon a bellows that forms part of the envelope. The target is moved relative to other optical elements within the envelope by means extending through the bellows to provide both axial and pivotal adjustment after the tube is sealed. This structure enables other optical components including image reflectors to be constructed integrally with the envelope, and also improves heat transfer between the target and the external space, permitting control of the target temperature.

Projection cathode ray tube having target angularly and longitudinally

A color projection television receiver and projector having three color tubes mounted in fixed relation and in predetermined location relative to a screen for projecting three color pictures in registration thereon. Accurate registration of the pictures results from a projection tube structure adapted for accurate reproducability in production, whereby field adjustment is minimized. The tube structure employs a mounting barrel accurately suspended within the evacuated envelope and supporting a phosphor-coated target and a projection mirror. A Schmidt correction lens is mounted externally to the envelope of each tube.
