System For Applying And Tensioning An Implosion Protecting Band To A Crt With A Tension Between Selected Limits
US Patent:
4352226, Oct 5, 1982
Filed:
Oct 24, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/200539
Inventors:
Laurence B. Kimbrough - Lititz PA
Leonard P. Wilbur - Lancaster PA
Leonard P. Wilbur - Lancaster PA
Assignee:
RCA Corporation - New York NY
International Classification:
H01J 924
US Classification:
29 2519
Abstract:
A system for applying an implosion protecting band to a CRT has a worktable which is slidable with respect to a stationary base. The CRT rests on supports which properly position and locate the CRT with respect to the worktable. At least one of these supports includes pads which center the CRT on the worktable. A channel-shaped segmented band guide loops the band around the CRT. The stationary part of the tension device is affixed to the stationary base. The band feed mechanism and the tensioning mechanism are moveable with respect to the worktable so that the worktable does not deflect in response to the tension.
Holding And Notching Tool For Crt Implosion Protection
US Patent:
4356845, Nov 2, 1982
Filed:
Oct 24, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/200538
Inventors:
Laurence B. Kimbrough - Lititz PA
Assignee:
RCA Corporation - New York NY
International Classification:
B21F 900
US Classification:
140 932
Abstract:
A tool for holding and notching a banding strap being applied to an article includes angularly disposed pivotable arm. A fluid actuating device simultaneously pivots the arms in opposite directions. Each of the arms has jaws to hold the end of the strap by the edges before tension is applied to the strap and cutting edges to notch the strap to prevent strap motion while tensioning is being applied. Each of the arms also includes a fluid actuating device for rotating the notching edges with respect to the holding jaws.
Implosion Protection Band For Crt
US Patent:
4567626, Feb 4, 1986
Filed:
Oct 24, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/200141
Inventors:
Laurence B. Kimbrough - Lititz PA
Assignee:
RCA Corporation - Princeton NJ
International Classification:
B65D 6302
US Classification:
24 20CW
Abstract:
A tensioning band includes a plurality of notches in the free end. Formed in the notches are tabs which extend between the free end and the tensioned loop to prevent the loop from moving against the article being tensioned and thereby relaxing the tension.
