The invention relates to an improvement in the photo-exposure system utilized in the forming of stripe-patterned screens on the viewing panels of color cathode ray tubes. The versatile system incorporates an adjustable electronically controlled cam arrangement for achieving desired oscillation of the exposure light source. A cam associated multi-apertured control disk initiates a pre-determined number of pulses which accurately control the degree of cam movement and resultant light source oscillation.

Cathode ray tube screen exposure system

Apparatus for manufacturing cathode ray tube display screens having a face plate with an affixed layer of photosensitive material and an apertured mask spaced from the photosensitive layer and attached to the faceplate includes an exposure chamber having a source of actinic energy spaced from the faceplate and a shutter intermediate the actinic energy source and the faceplate with the shutter movable in one given direction to initiate and to interrupt impingement of the faceplate by light rays from the actinic energy source. In a process for fabricating cathode ray tube display screens, a faceplate having a layer of photosensitive material on the inner surface and an apertured mask spaced from the photosensitive material and affixed to the faceplate is disposed on and supported by an exposure chamber having a source of actinic energy spaced from the faceplate with a shutter intermediate the energy source and the faceplate and the shutter movable in a given direction to cause light rays from the energy source to impinge the faceplate and movable in the same given direction to interrupt impingement of the faceplate by light rays from the energy source.

Exposure apparatus and method for manufacturing a cathode ray tube

An apparatus for maintaining a vertically-oriented moving strip of thin and flexible metallic material at an established degree of tension in order to prevent deformation of the strip. The apparatus includes first and second series of vertically oriented rollers which extend above the apparatus's motion means to engage the strip during the strip's circuitous movement therebetween.
