Abstract
A combined magnetic shielding and degaussing structure for an in-line color picture tube comprises magnetizable shielding plates of an extended surface area each located at a corner of the picture tube and two vertically oriented magnetizable strips. Each strip connects upper and lower corner shielding plates on one side of the picture tube. The shielding plates guide stray magnetic flux into the strips and away from the picture tube interior in order to provide magnetic shielding. A degaussing winding is wound around the vertical axis of each strip and generates a degaussing flux which flows through the shielding plates and into the color picture tube shadow mask.
