Patent ID: 7023129

Claim:
A cathode ray tube, comprising: an electron gun for emitting at least one electron beam; a mask frame include a mask having a plurality of holes or slits for allowing the at least one electron beam to be transmitted therethrough and a frame to which the mask is attached; and a panel including a phosphor layer to be scanned by the at least one electron beam transmitted through the plurality of holes or slits of the mask, wherein: the panel includes a plurality of stud pins for supporting the frame; the frame includes a plurality of elastic supports engaged with the plurality of stud pins; at least one of the plurality of elastic supports includes an engagement portion having an engaging hole which is engaged with one of the plurality of the stud pins and an elastic portion in contact with the one stud pin, wherein the at least one elastic support includes a fixing portion for fixing the at least one elastic support to the frame, and the elastic portion is fixed to the fixing portion, and the at least one elastic support further includes a connection portion for connecting the fixing portion and the engagement portion to each other; and mask frame vibration causes the elastic portion to rub against a respective stud pin so as to generate a frictional force for attenuating the vibration of the mask frame.
