Abstract:
The incandescent lamp, which uses a carbon cycle process, is equipped with a luminous body which, together with a fill, is introduced in a vacuum-tight manner into a bulb, the luminous body including a metal carbide, the melting point of which is above that of tungsten. The distance between the luminous body and the wall of the bulb is less than 18 mm, with a first cycle process, which is attributed to the carbon, being effected by the use of carbon and hydrogen as fill additive, and a second cycle process, which is attributed to the metal, being effected by the use of halogen.
Abstract:
A halogen incandescent lamp, in particular a miniature halogen incandescent lamp with an electrical power consumption of at most 10 W, that is suitable for use in a pocket lamp. The outside diameter of the lamp bulb is 3.0 mm to 6.2 mm, and the sections (4a, 5a) arranged in the interior (3) of the lamp bulb (1), of the supply leads (4, 5) for the incandescent filament (2) are constructed as flattened wires in order to minimize shading effects.
Abstract:
An electric lamp with a fuse seal, which seals off the lamp bulb, a metal seal with power supply wires and feed lines being provided in the fuse seal, and the metal seal with power supply wires and feed lines being provided with a structure, which has been produced by a laser.

Abstract:
An electric light bulb, in particular a halogen light bulb designed to be operated by mains voltage includes a substantially axially symmetrical bulb and a single-coil filament mounted in the bulb. The filament includes at least one incandescent coil section disposed outside the bulb axis. The incandescent coil is disposed axially in a transparent cylindrical sleeve which has an interference filter that reflects infra-red rays.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a halogen incandescent lamp, part of whose lamp vessel (1) is provided with a light-reflecting coating (6) and is in the form of a reflector.
Abstract:
To reduce heat loading of a luminaire or lamp fixture in which a halogen andescent lamp, retained in a reflector, is installed, the bulb of the halogen incandescent lamp is coated with a heat reflecting or mirror coating so that heat radiated from the filament (3) of the lamp (2, 10) is reflected from the surface of the bulb back into the bulb, rather than being directed from the filament to the reflector so that a portion of the radiation is diffusely transmitted from the lamp through an outer covering (6) thereof. If the reflector is only partially IR reflective, the remaining portion which can pass to heat the fixture or luminaire is small enough so that its temperature rise will be within an acceptable range. Thus, forwardly directed heat radiation is not focused, as is the visible light, and heat loading on an illuminated object is substantially reduced, without excessive heat loading of the fixture or luminaire.
Abstract:
To make a lamp of quartz or hard glass which has a bulb (10, 22) which doesot have an exhaust tip, for example a metal halide high-pressure discharge lamp or a halogen incandescent lamp, the glass bulb is formed by blow-molding the bulb to the desired shape, then retaining an electrode system having electrodes (14, 14a) to be placed in the bulb, current supply leads (12, 24) extending externally of the bulb, and sealing foils (13, 23) connecting the current supply leads to the electrodes in a holder die (11, 25), introducing the electrodes by moving the holder die towards the bulb, flushing the bulb by introducing and selectively removing flushing gas through an open end of the tube, introducing a measured quantity of a fill substance, such as mercury, an iodide or the like, into the bulb through the open end thereof, and then heating the bulb in the region of the position of the sealing foils and pinch-sealing the bulb. Excess glass is then cut off and the bulb can be supplied with a base. To introduce the fill gas and fill substances, the holder die can be formed with a through-opening through which gas exchange can take place and fill substances, for example in form of pellets or pills introduced. The pinch-sealing can be carried out in two steps, one step pinch-sealing the electrode system but leaving capillary openings (62) adjacent the side walls of the tube to permit gas exchange. The capillaries can then be melted shut by a pointed flame.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an incandescent lamp (1) which is provided with an illuminant (7) which is inserted in a bulb (2) together with a filling in a vacuum-tight manner, the illuminant (7) comprising a metal carbide that has a melting point above that of tungsten. The bulb also comprises a source and a sink for a material of which the illuminant is depleted during use.
Abstract:
A light bulb (1), equipped with an illumination body (7), which is enclosed together with a filler (2) in a vacuum in a bulb. The illumination body (7) includes a metal carbide, whose melting point lies above that of tungsten. The bulb also contains carbon, hydrogen and fluorine, preferably in combination.
