- 2. The glass funnel for a cathode ray tube according to claim 1, wherein the funnel-like body portion further comprises the substantially flat arched face portions on a short side in addition to the long side.
- 3. The glass funnel for a cathode ray tube according to claim 1, wherein the angle formed between a tangential line passing the connecting point which connects the blend R portion to the arched face portion and a tangential line passing the connecting point which connects the blend R portion to the dome-like portion in the middle of the ridge portion in a side of the rectangular-shaped open end portion, is in a range of 90°≦θ≦120°.
- 4. The glass funnel for a cathode ray tube according to claim 1, wherein in the portions in the vicinity of the corner portions of the rectangular-shaped open end portion, the relation of the height Ha (mm) of both ends of each of the arch-like ridge portions from the rectangular-shaped open end face to the maximum diameter D (mm) of the rectangular-shaped open end portion is Ha ≦0.044D+9.6.
- 5. The glass funnel for a cathode ray tube according to claim 1, wherein the relation of the maximum height H of the arch-like ridge portion from the rectangular-shaped open end face to the height Hb of the funnel-like body portion is H/Hb ≦0.5.
- 6. The glass funnel for a cathode ray tube according to claim 1, wherein the dome-like portion of the funnel-like body portion has a recessed portion in the direction of a diagonal line of the funnel-like body portion.
- 7. The glass funnel for a cathode ray tube according to claim 1, wherein the funnel-like body portion is provided with a plurality of yoke portions and neck portions.
- 8. A cathode ray tube using the glass funnel for a cathode ray tube described in claim 1.
- 9. A glass funnel for a cathode ray tube comprising:a funnel-like body portion having a rectangular-shaped open end portion at one end; at least one yoke portion formed contiguous to the other end of the funnel-like body portion; and at least one neck portion connected hermetically to a free end portion of the at least one yoke portion, wherein: the funnel-like body portion has, at least on long sides, substantially flat arched face portions, respectively, the substantially flat arched face portions are substantially perpendicular to an open end face of the rectangular-shaped open end portion, each of the substantially flat arched face portions has an arch-like ridge portion extending to the vicinity of corner portions of the rectangular-shaped open end portion, and the funnel-like body portion comprises the substantially flat arched face portions and a dome-like portion; each of the arch-like ridge portions of the funnel-like body portion has a blend R portion connecting a respective one of the substantially flat arched face portions to the dome-like portion; and the dome-like portion of the funnel-like body portion has a plurality of recessed portions extending in diagonal directions of the funnel-like body portion.
