A television receiver is provided with a cabinet having a circular opening in a front panel thereof, a frame having a generally cylindrical outer surface and being mounted for rotation about the center of the circular opening with the cylindrical outer surface of the frame projecting forwardly from the front panel, a cathode ray tube disposed within the cabinet and attached to the frame for rotation with the latter, cooperatively engageable stop elements on the cabinet and frame, respectively, for limiting to a predetermined angular range the turning of the frame and cathode ray tube relative to the cabinet, and a detent arrangement on the frame and cabinet, respectively, for yieldably resisting turning of the frame at a plurality of angularly spaced apart locations within the predetermined range of turning.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a television receiver with a rotatable cathode ray tube which overcomes the previously mentioned problems.
More particularly, it is an object of this invention to provide an improved television receiver with a cathode ray tube which is rotatable relative to the receiver cabinet so as to permit the picture displayed on the screen of the tube to be conveniently viewed with the correct orientation of such picture relative to the viewer.
A further object is to provide a television receiver, as aforesaid, which is of relatively simple construction and easily assembled so as to permit its economical production.
Still another object is to provide a television receiver, as aforesaid, in which the rotation of the cathode ray tube relative to the cabinet is suitably limited so as to avoid damage to the various electrical connections required for proper operation of the cathode ray tube.
A still further object is to provide a television receiver, as aforesaid, with an antenna which is so located in respect to the cabinet as to permit the disposition of the antenna in any desired direction for efficient reception of broadcast signals in all of the various possible orientations of the cabinet.
In accordance with an aspect of this invention, a television receiver comprises a cabinet having a panel with a circular opening therein, a frame having a generally cylindrical outer surface and being mounted for rotation about the center of the circular opening in the panel with the cylindrical outer surface of the frame projecting forwardly from the panel, a cathode ray tube within the cabinet and being attached to the frame for rotation with the latter, cooperatively engageable stop means on the cabinet and frame, respectively, for limiting the turning of the frame and cathode ray tube relative to the cabinet to within a predetermined angular range, and cooperative detent means on the frame and cabinet, respectively, for providing yieldable resistance to turning of the frame relative to the cabinet at a plurality of angularly spaced apart locations within such predetermined range of turning of the frame
