摘要:
A method for manufacturing a high-pressure discharge lamp includes a process step in which a sealing portion is formed out of a side tube portion of a glass pipe that is designed for use in a discharge lamp. In the step of forming the sealing portion, a compound glass tube, which is composed of an outer tube made of a first glass and an inner tube made of a second glass whose softening point is lower than that of the first glass, is inserted into the side tube portion, which is also formed of the first glass. The side tube portion is then heated so that the side tube portion is brought in tight contact with the compound glass tube. Thereafter, at least the sealing portion is heated at a temperature higher than the strain point temperature of the second glass portion.

A manufacturing method of a high-pressure mercury lamp includes an electric field application step in which an electric field is applied to at least a light emission part (4) with the high-pressure mercury lamp being kept at a high temperature. This can reduce impurities such as hydrogen and alkali metals in a discharge space (8) and glass forming the light emission part (4). As a consequence, blackening and devitrification of the high-pressure mercury lamp while the lamp is lit can be reduced.

A method for manufacturing a high pressure mercury lamp having a high pressure resistance strength includes an electric field application step of applying an electric field to at least a light emitting part while keeping the high pressure mercury lamp at a high temperature. As a result of the electric field application step, impurities such as hydrogen and an alkali metal existing in a discharge space and in glass used for forming the light emitting part (1) and sealing parts (2) can be reduced, with it being possible to suppress blackening and devitrification during lighting.

A lamp with a reflector comprises a high pressure discharge lamp and a reflector. The reflector has a first opening and a second opening. Clearance between a sealing portion of the high pressure discharge lamp and the second opening is substantially filled. The sealing portion includes a first glass portion extending from a luminous bulb and a second glass portion provided in the inside of the first glass portion, and the sealing portion has a portion to which a compressive stress is applied. Moreover, when the sealing portion is disposed to extend in a substantially horizontal direction, a portion of the reflector is formed with an air inlet for introducing an air flow striking against an upper portion of the luminous bulb 1 and then coming into a lower portion of the luminous bulb 1.

A glass pipe 80 for a discharge lamp is prepared which includes a luminous bulb portion 1′ that will be formed into a luminous bulb of a high pressure discharge lamp and a side tube portion 2′. Subsequently, a glass member 70 made of a second glass having a softening point lower than that of a first glass constituting the side tube portion 2′ is inserted into the side tube portion 2′, after which a getter 75 is disposed in the side tube portion 2′. Then, with the pressure inside the glass pipe 80 reduced, the side tube portion 2′ is heated to tightly attach the glass member 70 to the side tube portion 2′, thereby forming a sealing portion.

A high pressure discharge lamp 100 comprises a luminous bulb 1 enclosing a luminous substance 6 inside and a sealing portion 2 for retaining the airtightness of the luminous bulb 1. The sealing portion 2 has a first glass portion 8 extending from the luminous bulb 1 and a second glass portion 7 provided at least in a portion of the inside of the first glass portion 8, and further has a portion (20) to which a compressive stress is applied. In the luminous bulb 1, mercuric bromide (HgBr2) is enclosed.

The formation step of a sealing portion 2 includes the substeps of inserting, into the side tube portion 2′, a glass member 70 made of a second glass having a softening point lower than that of a first glass constituting the side tube portion 2′; tightly attaching forward and backward portions (A and C) of the glass member 70 to the side tube portion 2′ by heating the side tube portion 2′ when the glass member 70 is divided into the forward portion, the backward portion, and a central portion under the assumption that the side of the glass member 70 closer to a luminous bulb portion 1′ is the forward side, thereby forming a cavity 30 between at least a portion of the central portion (B) and the side tube portion 2′; and heating, after the attachment step, a portion including at least the glass member 70 and the side tube portion 2′ at a temperature higher than the strain point temperature of the second glass.
摘要:
A high pressure discharge lamp with a trigger wire wound around a side tube portion has the structure in which the side tube portion has a first glass portion extending from a luminous bulb and a second glass portion provided in at least a portion of the inside of the first glass portion, and in which the second glass portion contains at least one substance of Li, Na, and K of from 0.001 wt % to 1.0 wt % inclusive. This structure provides a high pressure discharge lamp operable with a drastically reduced starting voltage.
