Abstract:
The present invention relates to a lamp device using a high-pressure vapor discharge lamp, particularly to an improvement for controlling the influence of the generation of heat, which accompanies an increase in lamp power and a reduction in the size of a reflector. A lamp device of the present invention comprises a discharge lamp having an arc tube enclosing luminescent materials and having a pair of opposing electrodes disposed therein and a pair of sealed portions extending from the arc tube; a reflector which reflects light radiated by the discharge lamp; a transparent member covering an open end of the reflector and accommodating the discharge lamp in a space between the transparent member and the reflector; and means for preventing an excessive temperature rise wherein the temperature rise of welded parts of wiring members electrically connected to the electrodes of the discharge lamp is restricted.
Abstract:
The electric lamp has a light source (3) having a first (31) and a second light-generating portion (32) in a concave reflector (2). The reflector has an axis of symmetry (20) and a first (21) and a second reflector portion (22), each having an optical axis (23 and 24, respectively) which is parallel to the axis of symmetry (20). Each reflector portion (21, 22) surrounds its optical axis (23, 24) for the greater part. The light source portions (31, 32) each coincide with a respective one of the optical axes (23, 24). The lamp produces a light beam which has only one maximum.

An electric lamp is disclosed comprising a light-transmitting lamp vessel (1) which accommodates a light source (2). At least a part of the lamp vessel (1) is provided with a light-absorbing coating (3), the light-absorbing coating comprising stabilized pigments which are incorporated in a sol-gel matrix. In order to stabilize the pigments, an aminosilane is present. Moreover, a lamp vessel (1) fit for an electric lamp is disclosed, as well as a method of preparing a light-absorbing layer to be applied to the lamp vessel of an electric lamp.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a device and method for exposing a substrate to ultraviolet radiation emitted from a discharge lamp having regions of varying intensity along its length. The discharge lamp includes, inter alia, an elongated vitreous tube, first and second electrode assemblies and a coating on the interior the interior of the tube. The elongated vitreous tube has an outer periphery and axially opposed first and second ends which define an axial length for the tube therebetween. The outer periphery has a plurality of regions defined along said axial length, wherein a first region extends over a predetermined first portion of said axial length and has a helical groove path defining a series of axially spaced apart grooves formed therein. The first region emits ultraviolet radiation having an intensity greater than that emitted from a second region of the outer periphery.
Abstract:
A discharge lamp of the short arc type in which a lead pin, located within a hermetically sealed tube, is prevented from being irradiated with light. Such a construction prevents the lead pin from undergoing a temperature rise thereby preventing the destruction of the hermetically sealed tube. The discharge lamp of the short arc type includes an arc tube adjoined laterally by hermetically sealed tubes through which a lead pin, which supports an electrode, is routed. The hermetically sealed tubes are sealed by graded glass on the lead pins, and the lead pin is prevented from being irradiated with light by providing the outside surface of the hermetically sealed tube, at least in part, with a high emissivity material and then providing a reflectivity material on the exterior surface of the emissivity material.
Abstract:
A mercury-containing material, a method for producing the same and a fluorescent lamp using the same that can enclose a minimal amount of mercury in a glass bulb precisely, prevent flaws in a fluorescent coating while suppressing a noise during a lamp transportation, and prevent deterioration in appearance are provided. A surface of liquid mercury is coated with a continuous film made of metal oxide or metal complex oxide by dipping the mercury in a metal alkoxide solution and then heating the mercury on which the metal alkoxide solution adheres. Accordingly, the minimal amount of the mercury can be enclosed in the fluorescent lamp precisely, thus achieving friendliness to the environment. It also is possible to prevent flaws in the fluorescent coating while suppressing a noise during the lamp transportation and further to prevent deterioration in appearance.

Abstract:
Dielectric barrier discharge lamp The discharge tube (1) of a dielectric barrier discharge lamp is closed off in a gas-tight manner with the aid of a disk-like closure element (7) but without the use of joining means. For this purpose, the discharge tube (1) has a constriction (10), which surrounds the edge of the disk-like closure element (7) in the form of a ring.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp with a substantially elongate bulb which has two neck regions and a vacuumtight discharge chamber in a central position. The invention further relates to a reflector lamp and a projection system comprising such a high-pressure discharge lamp. A disadvantage of known lamps is formed by the too high temperatures of critical components. According to the invention, therefore, it is suggested that the high-pressure discharge lamp is provided at least partly with a reflection layer at least in a neck region. The reflection layer reflects radiation in the entire spectrum (ultraviolet, visible, infrared) and is used in particular as a heat shield layer which reflects the radiation incident on the neck region at the lamp end and acting as heat radiation, so that an additional heating is prevented or at least reduced.
