Description
本申请为分案申请,原申请的申请号为03804229.0(国际申请号为PCT/US03/04768),国际申请日为2003年2月18日,发明名称为“用于气体放电灯的起动器组件”。
技术领域
本发明涉及用于气体放电灯的起动器,特别涉及一种用于起动气体放电灯的具有磁性开关和控制电路的起动器组件。
背景技术
本发明要求在2002年2月19日申请的名称为“Point Of Use WaterTreatment System”的美国临时专利申请US60/357908的在35 USC §119(e)下的优先权。
本申请这里结合如下文献供参考:在2002年4月26日申请的名称为“Inductively Powered Lamp Assembly”的美国专利申请US10/133860、在2000年6月12日申请的名称为“Fluild TreatmentSystem”的美国专利申请US90/592194、在2002年9月18日申请的名称为“Inductively Coupled Ballast Circuit”的美国专利申请US10/246155、以及名称为“Water Treatment System with InductivelyCoupled Balast”的公布的美国专利US 6436299。
本发明涉及用于气体放电灯的起动器,特别涉及用于起动灯的具有磁性开关的起动器组件。传统地,气体放电灯使用专用起动器开关机构来驱动灯。当灯首次接通时,电力流过旁路并穿过起动器开关和经过灯电极。这个电力对电极预热,使灯中的气体电离,由此产生导电的介质。在电极被足够加热之后,起动器开关打开,使灯镇流器提供电压脉冲,并且电流可以穿过气体放电灯产生电弧。常规的起动器开关采用包含氖或一些其它气体的小放电泡。该放电泡具有彼此相邻设置的两个电极。在电极之间产生电流电弧,使得在放电泡内产生少量的热量,使一个双金属电极弯曲,从而它与另一电极接触。当两个电极接触时,电流不再在电极之间放电。因而,没有带电粒子流过气体。在没有来自带电粒子的热量的情况下,双金属电极冷却,弯曲并远离另一个电极。这就打开电路,使镇流器将能量转移给灯电极,并接着使灯点亮。当电流流过旁路时,在灯镇流器的一部分中建立磁场。这个磁场由流动的电流保持。当起动器开关打开时,电流暂时与镇流器断开。磁场崩溃,导致电流急剧跳跃,使得镇流器释放其存储的能量和使气体放电灯发光。
其它的气体放电灯依赖于设计,不包括起动器开关。相反,灯的镇流器恒定地引导电流流过两个电极。这个电流构成为使得在两个电极之间存在电荷差,在灯两端建立电压。
或者,气体放电灯可依赖于施加于灯电极的高启动电压,产生环形放电,用于起动灯。灯电极表面上的多余电子强制有些电子进入气体。这些自由电子使气体电离,并且几乎立即使电极之间的电压差建立电弧。
上述起动器设计存在的第一个问题是:它们不能容纳灯预热需求的变化。必须为特定气体放电灯的预热需求或气体放电灯的窄范围设计特定的起动器。上述起动器设计存在的第二个问题是:它们不适于由灯材料和灯结构引起的气体放电灯的变化。这些变化可能产生灯的预热需求的变化。这种变化可能导致灯起动器设计的改变,或者放弃偏离规格的灯。上述起动器设计存在的另一个问题是,它们不能适应气体放电灯预热需求的变化,特别在这些气体放电灯随着使用和时间而变化时。本发明的起动器组件克服了与常规气体放电灯起动器相关的这些和其它问题或使其最小化。
发明内容
本发明包括用于气体放电灯的专门的起动器组件。该起动器组件包括电流通路,该电流通路具有连接到气体放电灯的第一电极的第一支路以及连接到气体放电灯的第二电极的第二支路。该电流通路包括磁性开关。该磁性开关通过由控制电路控制的电磁体来激励。控制单元可用气体放电灯所需的预热时间来编程。在替换实施例中,控制单元可以用气体放电灯的预热时间的范围来编程。根据这个实施例,控制单元可以设有预热时间,该预热时间在灯的每次起动期间增加,或者在灯寿命期间增加。
在另一个替换实施例中,起动器组件还包括控制单元和射频识别系统。射频识别系统包括与气体放电灯耦合的转发器。射频识别系统从灯转发器获得关于灯的信息。然后将这个信息提供给控制电路。控制电路可以在这个信息基础上修改灯的预热时间。本领域技术人员都能理解到可以使用非接触以及接触型识别系统来代替射频识别系统。

具体实施方式
本发明在其应用上不限于如图中和说明书中所示的结构的细节和部件的设置。尽管结合这个特殊应用进行说明,但是本领域技术人员都能意识到本发明在权利要求书的范围内能以各种方式实施。此外,尽管以与紫外线灯一同使用为例示出了本发明的磁性起动器电路,但是本领域技术人员都能理解到本发明能够结合利用起动器电路的任何类型的气体放电灯使用。
I、灯结构
根据本发明一个实施例的气体放电灯组件示于图1和2中,并一般表示为10。为了公开的目的,结合用于在38瓦使用而转换的常规类型的PL-S 11瓦紫外线(UV)灯来介绍本发明,如在2002年4月26日申请的名称为“Inductively Powered Lamp Assembly”的美国专利申请US10/133860中所述类型的灯,这里结合它的主题仅供参考。灯组件10一般包括灯电路12和外部套管70。在本例中,灯电路12包括一个次级线圈14,优选是小直径导线22形式的线圈。次级线圈14从相关镇流器(未示出)的初级线圈感应地接收功率。整个灯电路12和灯18完全被封闭在外部套管70内。在所示实施例中,外部套管70的至少一部分是透明的,并且不由电线或其它元件穿过。外部套管70优选包括主体90和盖子92。主体90一般是具有打开端和封闭端的圆筒状管。将灯电路12安装在主体90内之后,将盖子92密封在主体90的打开端上,以便封闭灯电路12。灯18一般是具有石英套管的常规PL-S型灯,该石英套管具有互连的两个平行腿72a-b,以便协作限定腔室28。腔室28部分地被抽真空,并含有所希望的放电气体,如汞气。芯柱32a-b位于每个腿72a-b的底部。一对常规或定制设计的电极36a-b设置在腔室28内,并且各安装在每个芯柱32a-b的顶部。在本例中,外部套管70优选由石英制造,以便允许UV光有效地通过。在非UV应用中,外部套管可以用玻璃、特氟隆或塑料制造,这部分地取决于由灯产生的热量和灯的工作环境。例如,可供选择的的外部套管可用具有密封相对端的特氟隆管(未示出)的长度来制造。特氟隆管可以安装在灯组件的其余部件上,并且其相对端可以卷绕或以别的方式密封以封闭特氟隆套管。优选地,特氟隆管的每端往回折叠到其自己上并使用热量和压力卷绕。
进一步参考附图,特别是图1和2,灯组件10还包括灯头50和支架86,支架86在外部套管70内保持灯18的相反端。灯头50一般是圆筒形的并且其尺寸可以使其紧密装配在外部套管70内。除了保持灯18的每端之外,灯头50还接收电容器16和磁性开关34,如下面更详细的说明。灯头50限定用以接收次级线圈14的绕组的环形凹槽80、用于接收每个腿72a-b的底端的一对孔82a-b、以及用于包含电容器16和磁性开关34或如下面更详细说明的转发器126的一对空隙84a-b。灯组件10还包括设置在次级线圈和电极36a-b下面的热反射器58。热反射器58优选成形为在安装它的位置与灯套管52的横截面形状匹配,并优选用常规反射材料如铝或铝箔制造在合适的基板上。支架86一般为圆盘形,并且其尺寸允许它紧密配合在外部套管70内。支架86优选包括通过摩擦配合在石英套管52的腿72a-b之间的小突起88。灯头50和支架86的精确设计和构成可以根据应用而改变,这取决于外部套管70以及灯电路12的各种部件的设计和构成。灯头50和支架86优选用能承受高热量的材料如陶瓷或高温塑料制造。
能给感应灯组件10供电的各种镇流器对于本领域技术人员来说都是公知的。相应地,不再详细介绍镇流器。特别适用于所示实施例的灯的一种镇流器在2002年9月18日申请的名称为“InductivelyCoupled Ballast Circuit”的美国专利申请US10/246155中公开了,这里引证其全部内容供参考。这个镇流器可以很容易适于提供本发明的公开实施例的有效操作。
II、起动电路
参照附图,特别是图3和4,其中结合上述UV灯组件10示出了所示实施例的起动器组件。灯电路12由电极36a-b、电容器16、次级线圈14、和磁性开关34构成。适用于本发明的磁性起动器组件的一个典型灯电路在于2002年4月26日申请的名称为“Inductively PoweredLamp Assembly”的美国专利申请US10/133860中公开了,这里引证其全部内容供参考。
进一步参照图3和4,磁性开关34用导线串联连接在电极36a-b之间并由电子模块100激励。电子模块100由控制电路102、电阻器104、FET 106、二极管108和电磁体110构成。电磁体110设置在靠近磁性开关34的位置上,当被充电时,在那里它能选择性地闭合开关34。控制单元102控制电磁体110的操作。控制单元102可使用本领域公知方式编程,以便在固定时间间隔或在每次给灯电路12供电的“预热时间”内对电磁体110充电。根据所示实施例,灯镇流器(未示出)从初级线圈(未示出)向次级线圈14提供功率。灯镇流器(未示出)还向控制单元102提供灯起动信号。然后控制单元102利用5伏信号闭合FET 106,穿过电磁体110产生165伏电荷。这个电荷电磁体110产生使磁性开关34闭合的磁场,由此使得电流从次级线圈14直接流过电极36a-b,而不流过腿72a-b。结果是,电极36a-b被快速加热。预热时间的固定间隔之后,控制单元102打开FET106,使电磁体110去激励。电磁体110的去激励使开关34打开,从而使电流流过电极36a-b之间的腿72a-b。开关34的打开经常提供来自灯镇流器(未示出)的用于起动气体放电灯18的电压电涌。磁性开关34优选基本上垂直于镇流器初级线圈(未示出)的场而设置,以便磁性开关34不被初级线圈(未示出)的磁场激励。所示实施例的磁性开关34是由Coto,零件号RI-48A制造的常态开路的磁性簧片开关,尽管本领域技术人员将意识到任何基本相同的磁性开关将起到等效的作用。所示实施例的灯组件10的预热时间间隔是400毫秒,尽管本领域技术人员将理解到这个预热时间可以在不同灯结构之间以及相同结构的灯之间变化。所示实施例的电磁体110由Elytone coil,零件号YT-50054-1制造。尽管以场效应晶体管(FET)示出,但是本领域技术人员都能理解到任何继电器件都可用于给电磁体110施加功率。所示实施例的控制单元102由Microchip Technology公司的微处理器,零件号18F452构成。
III、替换实施例
本发明的磁性起动器组件的替换实施例进一步包括射频识别(RFID)系统。参见图5,所示实施例的灯组件10进一步包括转发器126,电子模块100还包括RFID电路124,RFID电路是本领域公知的,在题目为“具有感应耦合镇流器的水处理系统”的美国专利US6436299中介绍了一种典型的RFID电路,这里引证其内容供参考。RFID电路允许数据的非接触读取,该数据从转发器126发送到控制单元102,或者在替换实施例中,在转发器126和控制单元102之间双向发送。
射频识别系统124由控制单元102使用,以便获得专用于UV灯组件10的信息。由于UV灯射频识别转发器126位于UV灯组件10中,因此这些器件决不会分离,这允许控制单元102通过基站360从转发器126读取信息或向转发器126写信息。
参见图5,UV灯射频识别转发器126包括转发器天线362和读/写(e5551)芯片364。读/写(e5551)芯片还包括电可擦除可编程只读存储器(EEPROM)器件366,该器件366在存储位置中物理地储存用于每个相应UV灯组件10的相关信息。在当前优选实施例中,该信息包括紫外灯序列号和紫外灯预热时间。
紫外灯序列号对于每个紫外灯组件10来说是唯一的。紫外灯预热时间涉及紫外灯18预热所需的时间量。
射频识别系统124包括基站360、线圈380、多个二极管382、384、386、388、390、392、394、多个电阻器396、398、400、402、404、406、408、410、412、414、416、418、420以及多个电容器422、424、426、428、430、432、434、436,它们如图5所示那样电连接。本领域技术人员将意识到上述部件的连接对于本领域技术人员来说是公知的。射频识别系统124已经使用在用于TK5551A-PP所述的说明安装在电子模块100中,如前所述,TK5551A-PP是由TEMIC半导体制造的。对于本发明的目的,重要的是注意到基站360使用线圈380,用于与紫外光射频识别转发器126双向通信。控制单元102与基站360电连接,因此控制单元102可与基站360通信。射频识别系统124与第一DC电源180和第二DC电源184连接,如图5所示,提供具有在操作期间起作用的能量的射频识别系统124。
在所示实施例的一个改型中,储存在EEPROM器件366中的是使用本领域的公知方法用灯组件10序列号编程的。在灯组件10起动过程中,射频识别系统124从转发器126重新得到用于灯组件10的序列号。灯组件10序列号由基站360发送给控制单元102。使用本领域公知的方法,然后控制单元102查询预编程的查询表,在从转发器126重新得到的序列号的基础上确定特定灯组件的预热时间。控制单元102在规定的预热时间内激活电磁体110,由此在起动灯组件10之前对元件36a-b预热。
在所示实施例的第二改型中,储存在EEPROM器件366中的是使用本领域的公知方法用灯组件10序列号编程的。EEPROM器件366还构成为储存由本发明的起动器组件起动的每个灯组件10的起动数量。在起动灯组件10时,射频识别系统124从转发器126重新得到灯组件10的序列号。灯组件10序列号由基站360发送给控制单元102。然后控制单元102查询被储存在EEPROM器件366中的预编程查询表,在灯组件10序列号和起动灯组件10的总数量的基础上确定灯组件10的预热时间。灯组件10已经起动之后,控制单元增加被储存在EEPROM器件366中的起动灯组件10的总数量。在本发明的一个实施例中,随着起动数量增加,灯组件10的预热时间增加。
在另一替换实施例中,储存在EEPROM器件366中的是使用本领域的公知方法用灯组件10的预热时间编程的。在起动灯组件10时,射频识别系统124从储存在EEPROM器件366中重新得到灯组件的预热时间。灯组件10预热时间由基站360发送给控制单元102。然后在每次给灯电路12供电时,控制单元102使用这个预热时间激励电磁体110。
本领域技术人员都应该理解其它识别系统也可以与本发明一起使用,如接触型识别系统。但是,本发明的优选实施例使用了射频识别系统124,因为这种系统提供了固有的优点。
磁性起动器组件的结构可以根据应用在本质上变化,这大大取决于灯类型和相关功率需要。利用各种已有照明系统很容易修改本发明。上面的说明是关于本发明的各个实施例。在不脱离在所附权利要求书中限定的本发明的精神和较宽目标的情况下可以做出各种改型和改变,本发明的范围将根据专利法的原理来解释,包括等效的说法。对元件的单数的任何注明如使用“一个”、“该”、“所述”等不限制该元件的数量为单个。
