摘要:
An arc tube includes a light emitting body for light therein and a ceramic tube having a first capillary and a second capillary integral with respective opposite sides of the light emitting body. A first electrode is inserted and sealed in the first capillary, and a second electrode is inserted and sealed in the second capillary. The first electrode is sealed in the first capillary by shrink fitting.

The present invention relates to a ceramic tube for a high-intensity discharge lamp, comprising a hollow member and a plug member. The hollow member contains a substantially cylindrical body and a closure for closing one end of the body, and the plug member is inserted into an insertion opening formed at the other end of the body. Before the insertion of the plug member, the insertion opening has a tapered portion with a diameter decreasing in the direction from the open end to the inside at least in an area into which the plug member is inserted. After the insertion of the plug member, an outer wall of the plug member is bonded to an inner wall of the insertion opening.

A ceramic base plate is divided into a plurality of substrate regions 2 each having corner part 8. A dividing groove 7 is formed between the substrate regions 2 adjacent with each other. The corner part 8 of each of the substrate regions 2 faces a spacing 9B communicated with the dividing groove 7. At least a part of the corner part 8 is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped part of the corner part is tangent to a center line 7a of the dividing groove 7 at a cross point “P” of the spacing 9B with the dividing groove 7. The ceramic base plate is broken along the dividing groove 7 to produce ceramic substrates.
摘要:
A translucent polycrystalline sintered body is mainly composed of an alumina, is suitable for the manufacture of an arc tube for a high-intensity discharge lamp, and has an average grain diameter of 35 to 70 μm, preferably 50 to 60 μm. In a case where the sintered body is in a 0.5-mm-thick flat plate shape, the in-line transmittance of the sintered body is 30% or more, preferably 50% or more. In this case, the ratio between maximum and minimum in-line transmittance values is 2:1 to 1:1 in the visible region of 360 to 830 nm. The bending strength of the sintered body is 250 MPa or more, preferably 300 MPa or more.
