The disclosure includes a glow-discharge lamp including: an elongate casing transparent to illuminating radiation and containing a plasma gas; a device for applying an electric field for maintaining a plasma in the so-called positive column region of the casing, the device including two electrodes forming an anode and a cathode located in the casing at each end thereof; and a radio-frequency or microwave cathode plasma source arranged in the casing in relation to the cathode-forming electrode, such as to generate a high-frequency discharge located on the surface of the electrode in order to generate the plasma. The disclosure also includes a lighting method of such a glow-discharge lamp.

A lamp socket includes a first socket portion, a second socket portion, and a neck portion joining the first and the second socket portions. The first socket portion defines a first cylindrical volume proximate to an open end of the lamp socket. The second socket portion is concentric with the first socket portion and defines a second cylindrical volume distal from the open end of the lamp socket. The second socket portion has a smaller diameter than the first socket portion.

End-of-life indicators for lamps, and methods for indicating the end-of-life for lamps, are provided. A solid state light source end-of-life indicator is located on the exterior of a housing of a lamp, and includes at least one light emitting diode. The solid state light source end-of-life indicator emits light at the end of the life of the lamp. The solid state light source end-of-life indicator may emit light upon receiving an end-of-life signal from an end-of-life detection circuit, which detects when the lamp is at an end of its life.

Provided is a light assembly including a bulb, a lamp base enclosure having circuitry therein configured to supply power to the bulb, and an integrated and dial electrically coupled to the bulb and the lamp base. The dial is operable for selecting one of a plurality of predetermined power settings for the light assembly prior to installation.
摘要:
A luminaire comprising a fluorescent light bulb, mercury sorbent, and a secondary covering is presented along with methods for making and using a luminaire that has mercury sorbent placed under a secondary transparent or translucent covering, coating, or skin and over the glass-casing of the fluorescent light bulb comprising the luminaire so that elemental mercury will not escape to the environment surrounding the luminaire if and when the glass-casing of the fluorescent light bulb ever breaks or ruptures.

The present invention discloses an improved compact induction lamp, which includes a lamp bulb coated with a phosphor layer on its inner wall and contains inert gas and mercury vapor. The lamp bulb is connected to a housing and mounted to a lamp base. The housing may include a control circuit. A magnetic ring located within a ring cover surrounded the lamp bulb and enclosed one cross section of the lamp bulb. A wire coil wrapped around the magnetic ring is connected with the control circuit and to the lamp base, which generates an electromagnetic field to lighten the lamp. A double wall exhaust tube containing mercury amalgam is disposed of in the housing at the lamp base to provide mercury vapor to the inner space of the lamp bulb. The double wall exhaust tube provides a mean to prevent the amalgam from penetrating into the lamp bulb and allows the lamp to be mounted in any direction the lamp may be operated.
摘要:
Lighting apparatuses including a first endcap including a first light socket, a second endcap spaced from the first endcap including a second light socket, reflector rotatably attached between the first endcap and the second endcap, the reflector including a reflective surface partially enclosing a reflector interior space and defining a focal point within the reflector interior space. The first light socket and second light socket are collectively configured to support light sources substantially near the focal point. The first endcap and the reflector include complimentarily configured interlocking members.
