摘要： A high intensity arc discharge lamp having an elongated outer vitreous envelope sealed by a dome at its upper end and a base assembly at is lower end. An elongated arc discharge tube within the envelope is supported at its lower end by the base assembly and at its upper end by a supporting frame, the lower end of the supporting frame also being supported by the base assembly. To stabilize the upper end of the supporting frame against movement with respect to the outer envelope, a curvilinear flat retaining spring is affixed at one end to the upper end of the supporting frame, the other end of the retaining spring being in free cantilevered compression contact with the dome of the envelope.

摘要： An electric lamp having a light source capsule with a generally planar press seal, having two opposing major faces and two minor faces extending therebetween, includes an improved support strap for securing the seal to a frame support rod. The support strap includes a stiffly resilient strip of metal having two spaced and opposing major leg portions each extending in contact with a respective major seal face, an elastically deformable jaw portion substantially not in contact with a seal face, and end portions fixed to each other adjacent one of the seal faces. The elastically deformable portion is arranged such that with the strap end portions fixed to each other it is elastically deformed and firmly biases other portions of the support strap against at least two of the seal faces for holding the seal therebetween. The elastically deformable portion is dimensioned such that the seal is firmly held by the strap despite the usual lamp-to-lamp variations in seal dimensions which occur during high speed lamp manufacture, obviating the need for hand fitting or expensive and complicated strap fitting equipment.

摘要： A high intensity discharge lamp having a pair of discharge devices with one of them initially operative. The discharge devices are laterally adjacent with the higher temperature end of the operative discharge device proximate the lower temperature end of the inoperative discharge device for heating it during lamp operation. This facilitates starting of the inoperative discharge device after a momentary power interruption.

摘要： A high pressure discharge lamp having a wire connected to at least one of the electrode assemblies of its arc tube. The wire is formed with two separated legs joined at a common point. The legs are both bent toward the common point. The distance between the legs of the wire contracts and expands to compensate for the expansion and contraction of the lamp's arc tube as the lamp is turned on and off.

摘要： A high pressure lamp assembly having an improved structure for supporting the discharge tube while providing an opening bi-metallic switch for electrically disconnecting the auxiliary electrode. Metallic frames are disposed at the upper and lower ends of the discharge lamp to provide at least partial support to the discharge tube. A non-conductive bridge assembly is connected between the lead through of the auxiliary electrode and a conductive rod extending from the stem. The non-conductive bridge provides at least partial mechanical support to the discharge tube. Connected across the non-conductive bridge is the starting resistor and bi-metallic switch element. When the bi-metallic element is unheated, it provides electrical connection through the starting resistor to the auxiliary electrode. When heated by the heat from the discharge tube, the bi-metallic switch moves out of engagement with the ceramic bridge and thus breaks the electrical connection to the auxiliary electrode.
