摘要:
A single ended, short arc, low wattage, high pressure, metal vapor discharge lamp is electrode stabilized and employs arc constrictors selected from the group of lanthanides, actinides and thorium to provide a brightness of 175,000 cd/in.sup.2 when operated at 75 watts.

摘要:
A low wattage single-ended metal halide arc discharge lamp has an isothermal arc chamber with an outer diameter (t) substantially equal to the product of a first constant and the lamp wattage plus a second constant; a fill gas and a pair of electrical conductors sealed into and passing through one end of the arc chamber to provide a pair of electrodes therein having a spacing therebetween of about a distance to provide a substantially uniform current for lamps in the range of about 35 to 150 watts.

A high intensity discharge device operable in any orientation employs electrodes whose major portions are parallel and whose minor portions converge toward each other. The converging minor portions can be loops of electrode material.

A D.C. operable, miniature, low-wattage, single ended, arc discharge lamp. The cathode electrode includes electrical field modifying means to insure that the arc strikes between the electrode tips. During high pressure (.about.10 atm) operation electrode heating of the anode is dominated by electron bombardment, which creates substantially higher heat at the anode tip than at the cathode tip (the cathode being heated by ion bombardment and cooled by thermionic electron emission). Heat conducted down the anode electrode is dissipated in the single press and contributes to the heat conduction in the closely adjacent cathode electrode thereby reducing the net heat loss therein and helping to maintain the desired cathode temperature.

A miniature, low-wattage, discharge lamp operable on direct current employs substantially parallel electrodes sealed in a single press seal. The electrodes are configured to provide an arc which is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the lamp with the cathode being substantially longer than the anode. Heat generated at the anode is dissipated through the seal to the cathode allowing the cathode to operate hot enough to be stable. The chemical fill for the lamp employs a mol ratio of thorium to cesium to permit good light output and good color rendition.
摘要:
A single ended, low-wattage, high pressure, metal vapor discharge lamp includes first and second main electrodes and an auxiliary electrode resistively coupled to one of the main electrodes. The lamp provides a glow region remote from the main arc region and keeps wall blackening confined to areas remote from the main arc region. The lamp starts easier and minimizes detrimental glow time.

A high intensity discharge lamp includes arc extinguishing means functional when the outer envelope of the lamp fails. The extinguishing means comprises a pressure sensing diaphragm and a terminal which will melt back when an arc is drawn therebetween. The extinguishing means operates within a time interval of several milli-seconds.
摘要:
A low wattage metal halide arc discharge lamp has a press seal at one end thereof with two main electrodes sealed therein. The ratio of the distance from an electrode tip to the nearest arc tube wall over the arc length is greater than 0.4.
摘要:
A single ended metal halide arc discharge lamp contains mercury, sodium halide, scandium, scandium halide and a starting gas. The molar ratio of sodium halide to scandium halide is between about 5 to 8 in order to obtain optimum luminous efficacy.
