CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 2004-70439 filed on Sep. 3, 2004, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present general inventive concept relates to a displaying apparatus, and more particularly, to a displaying apparatus capable of electrically interconnecting a cathode ray tube (CRT) and a printed circuit board (PCB) through a CRT socket.

2. Description of the Related Art

The term “displaying apparatus” used in this description collectively refers to various kinds of apparatuses that visually display data including text or pictures on a display panel.

A CRT-type displaying apparatus comprises a cathode ray tube (CRT) having a plurality of CRT lead pins disposed in a circular arrangement, a printed circuit board (PCB) provided at a rear end of the CRT, and a CRT socket electrically interconnecting the CRT and the PCB. The CRT socket includes a plurality of pin holes through which the CRT lead pins are coupled and a plurality of socket pins mounted on the PCB. The CRT socket is formed with a pipe-shaped cable coupling part, to which a high voltage cable is coupled, whereby a high voltage generated by a fly back transformer (FBT) can be applied to the CRT.

In the CRT displaying apparatus, unwanted electromagnetic waves may be generated in the process of applying the high voltage generated by the FBT to the CRT. If these electromagnetic waves are not properly shielded, they may cause peripheral devices to malfunction. Conventional CRT displaying apparatuses use either a shield line wound around the high voltage cable or an electromagnetic shielding member installed on the FBT to shield from the electromagnetic waves generated in the process of applying the high voltage to the CRT.

However, the conventional CRT displaying apparatuses employing the shielding devices described above tend to have structures that are relatively complicated, and using these structures to shield from the electromagnetic waves generated in the process of applying the high voltage to the CRT is expensive.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The general inventive concept provides a displaying apparatus capable of shielding the displaying apparatus from electromagnetic waves generated in the process of applying a high voltage to a CRT in a simple and effective manner.

Additional aspects and/or advantages of the present general inventive concept will be set forth in part in the description which follows and, in part, will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the general inventive concept.

The foregoing and/or other aspects and advantages of the present general inventive concept are achieved by providing a displaying apparatus comprising a cathode ray tube (CRT), a printed circuit board (PCB) provided at a rear end of the CRT, a CRT socket to electrically connect the CRT and the PCB, a cable coupling part formed adjacent to the CRT socket, a high voltage cable coupled to the cable coupling part, and an electromagnetic wave shielding member provided inside the cable coupling part and in contact with the high voltage cable to shield the displaying apparatus from electromagnetic waves generated by the high voltage cable.

The electromagnetic wave shielding member may have a cylindrical structure formed with a penetrating hole through which an end of the high voltage cable passes to a contact.

The electromagnetic wave shielding member may comprise a ferrite material.

The embodiments are described below in order to explain the present general inventive concept while referring to the figures.

Referring to FIGS. 1 through 3, a displaying apparatus according to an embodiment of the present general inventive concept comprises a cathode ray tube (CRT) 10 , a printed circuit board (PCB) 20 provided at a rear end of the CRT 10 , a CRT socket 30 to electrically connect the CRT 10 and the PCB 20 and having a cable coupling part 32 formed on one side thereof, a high voltage cable 40 coupled to the cable coupling part 32 of the CRT socket 30 , and an electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) provided inside the cable coupling part 32 of the CRT socket 30 to shield the displaying apparatus and surrounding devices from electromagnetic waves generated in the high voltage cable 40 by contacting the high voltage cable 40 .

The rear end of the CRT includes a neck part having a plurality of CRT lead pins 12 disposed in a circular arrangement.

The PCB 20 includes a predetermined pattern of circuits. A variety of circuit components including an integrated chip (IC) are disposed on the PCB 20 .

The CRT socket 30 is provided between the CRT 10 and the PCB 20 . A plurality of pin holes 34 are formed on one side of the CRT socket 30 adjacent to the CRT 10 and opposite to the PCB 20 to be coupled to the plurality of CRT lead pins 12 disposed in the circular arrangement on the rear end of the CRT 10 . The plurality of pin holes 34 on the CRT socket 30 correspond to the plurality of CRT lead pins 12 , and are also arranged in a circular arrangement. A plurality of socket pins 36 are formed on the other side of the CRT socket 30 adjacent to the PCB 20 and opposite the CRT 10 to be coupled to the PCB 20 , and may also be arranged in a circular arrangement. With this configuration, the CRT 10 receives a variety of signals generated from the PCB 20 applied through the CRT socket 30 , thereby forming images thereon.

An elongated cable inserting hole 33 is formed on the cable coupling part 32 and is provided integrally with the CRT socket 30 . The high voltage cable 40 is inserted into the cable inserting hole 33 of the cable coupling part 32 to be electrically connected to the plurality of CRT lead pins 12 , thereby applying the high voltage carried on the high voltage cable 40 to the CRT 10 .

The cable coupling part 32 functions to receive the high voltage carried on the high voltage cable 40 , and the high voltage applied to the cable coupling part 32 is applied to the CRT 10 through the plurality of CRT lead pins 12 that are coupled to the plurality of pin holes 34 .

The high voltage cable 40 functions as an intermediary to transmit the high voltage generated in a fly back transformer (FBT) 60 to the CRT socket 30 . As illustrated in FIG. 4, a covering of an end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 is taken off, and the end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 without the covering thereon directly contacts the electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 .

A support part 38 capable of supporting the electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 is provided inside the cable coupling part 32 .

The electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 may have a cylindrical shape formed with a penetrating hole 52 through which the end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 passes to a contact (described below). The electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 may have other various shapes including, for example, a polygonal box shape. Additionally, the end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 that passes through the penetrating hole 52 of the electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 is firmly supported by a contact 70 provided inside the CRT socket 30 to be electrically connected to the plurality of CRT lead pins 12 .

The electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 comprises a ferrite material that effectively shields electromagnetic waves and is low in cost

With reference to FIG. 4, a connection state of the high voltage cable 40 to the cable coupling part 32 of the CRT socket 30 will be described.

The end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 coupled to a cable inserting hole 33 of the cable coupling part 32 maintains a contact state with the penetrating hole 52 of the electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 provided inside the cable coupling part 32 .

The end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 is held in contact with the penetrating hole 52 of the electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 by the contact 70 , thereby preventing the end 40 a of the high voltage cable 40 from being removed from the cable coupling part 32 . Accordingly, the electrical connection state of the high voltage cable 40 with the electromagnetic wave shielding member 50 can be maintained in a stable manner.

As described above, the displaying apparatus according to the present general inventive concept is capable of minimizing generation of EMI by shielding-electromagnetic waves generated in the process of applying high voltage to the CRT.

Further, since the electromagnetic shielding structure is simplified, production cost may be saved.

Although the present general inventive concept has been described in connection with the exemplary embodiments illustrated in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present general inventive concept is not limited thereto and those skilled in the art can make various modifications and changes without departing from the scope of the general inventive concept.
