Abstract:
The display apparatus includes an airtight container having an insulating first substrate, an insulating second substrate which faces the first substrate, a conductive frame arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate, a conductive layer which is provided between the conductive frame and the first substrate and which is airtightly bonded to the conductive frame, and an insulating layer which is provided between the conductive layer and the first substrate and which airtightly bonds between the conductive layer and the first substrate; a display unit provided inside the airtight container; wires connected to the display unit; and electrodes. The insulating layer insulates the wires from the conductive frame and the electrodes and has through-holes penetrating from the electrodes toward the conductive frame, and the conductive layer is connected to the electrodes through the through-holes.
Abstract:
A light source capsule (16) having a capsule envelope (18) with a wall (20) defining an enclosed volume (22), and having a sealed portion (24). A light source (26) is positioned in the enclosed volume (22) and has deformable electrical leads-ins (28, 30) extending through the sealed portion (24) of the capsule envelope (18). Stiff lead-in engagers (32) are aligned with the sealed portion (24) of the capsule envelope (18) and are electrically coupled to the electrical leads (28, 30), the lead-in engagers being electrically conductive. The lead-in engagers are fitted through apertures in the base (14) of a lamp envelope (12) to complete a lamp (10).
Abstract:
A fluorescent lamp includes an external electrode and an internal electrode provided at opposite ends of a fluorescent tube. A power conductor may connect to the internal electrode extend outside the tube to provide a connection point for the internal electrode. The tube may include an internal support element at a first end of the tube and a substantially self supporting second end of the tube. A method for assembling a backlight includes obtaining a fluorescent lamp with an external electrode at a first end of a tube, an internal electrode at a second end of the tube opposite the first end, and an internal support element at the second end of the tube. The first end of the tube may be substantially self supporting. The method also connects first and second drive connectors to the first and second ends of the tube.
Abstract:
A method for producing a molybdenum film for lamp construction is provided. The method may include roughening at least a part of the surface of the molybdenum film by sandblasting with a sandblasting means, wherein the sandblasting means contains at least one of aluminum oxide and quartz sand as well as at least one further component.
Abstract:
A lamp (10) comprising an hermetically sealed, cylindrical envelope (12) arrayed about a longitudinal axis (13); two filament supports (14, 16) sealed in the envelop; a filament (18) fixed between the filaments supports; and an internal reflector (20) in the envelope for directing light emitted from the filament outwardly from the envelope.
