Embodiment
Referring now to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.A kind of low-pressure discharge lamp 1 has been shown among the figure, and this discharge lamp 1 has a helical discharge tube 2 that two helix tube parts 21,22 are arranged.Such discharge lamp 1 generally is also referred to as compact fluorescent lamp, and is known in the art, and it can have various tube shape.This discharge tube 2 has constituted an arc chamber that is used for the sealing of discharge process.Lamp housing 4 covers the end 31 of discharge tube 2, and the electric contact 8,9 of this lamp is installed.
Filament 14 embeddings are ensconced in the end 31 of discharge tube 2. Lead 10,12 is connected to filament 14 on the suitable circuit 16 (also seeing accompanying drawing 7) in the lamp housing 4.In discharge tube 2, preserve suitable low-pressure gas.The inner surface of discharge tube 2 is coated with thin layer fluorescent material, and when receiving ultraviolet excitation, this fluorescent material thin layer is luminous.Said ultraviolet ray is to be produced under discharge process by the contained mercury of the gas in the discharge tube 2, wherein discharge be through with the lamp housing 4 of this discharge lamp 1 in circuit 16 filament 14 that links to each other keep.This structure itself also is known.
As knowing finding in the accompanying drawing 2, said discharge tube 2 is provided with a tubulose prolongation 18, and it is positioned at 31 places, end of said discharge tube 2.This tubulose prolongation 18 has the diameter that many littler than the diameter of this discharge tube 2.The free end 41 of this tubulose prolongation 18 extends away from said discharge tube.This tubulose prolongation 18 is blast pipes 28, and more precisely, it is a part that in manufacture process, remains in the blast pipe 28 on this discharge tube 2.Blast pipe 28 shown in the accompanying drawing 2 has bending slightly, and its reason will make an explanation with reference to accompanying drawing 7 in the back, and but, in other embodiments, it also can be straight or crooked more.
As knowing finding in the accompanying drawing 2, said blast pipe 28 is sealed by a barrier film 38 at its free end 41 places.This barrier film 38 typically is a glass by forming with said blast pipe 28 identical materials.Be appreciated that the part 36 that a thickness that this barrier film 38 or film have constituted said tubulose prolongation has reduced in the explanation from behind, this part 36 is positioned at the end 41 of this tubulose prolongation 18.Term " barrier film " expression; The wall thickness of the part 36 that this thickness of said tubulose prolongation 18 has reduced is very little; So that on the direction surperficial perpendicular to it; Its mechanical support ability can be ignored, and it can only comprise and be parallel to its surperficial power, and is just the same as the barrier film of being processed by flexible material.But, this barrier film 38 still can withstand external atmosphere pressure, and in part because of its crooked shape, this shape is that the back is with reference to the result of accompanying drawing 3 to the manufacturing approach of accompanying drawing 6 explanations.
Being close near the space 24 the inner surface 26 that said barrier film 38 is actually this barrier film 38, is the cold spot area of said discharge lamp 1.This barrier film 38 is extremely thin, and its thickness can be about 0.1mm and even littler magnitude.Therefore, compare with other interior section of said discharge tube 2 and said blast pipe 28, even at said lamp 1 duration of work, this barrier film 38 itself and towards the space 24 surface 26 also will have quite the temperature near ambient temperature.As a result, the inner surface 26 of this barrier film 38 is suitable for as cold spot ideally.Compare with the blast pipe closed end with normal thickness, the structure of this barrier film in the blast pipe 28 can reduce 6-9C ° with this cold-point temperature.This also gives the credit to and locatees this barrier film 38 as much as possible away from filament 14.For example, in the present embodiment, said tubulose prolongation 18; That is, the length of said blast pipe 28 can be 30mm, but this length is generally 8-20mm; This length depends on the size of said discharge tube 2 and other parameter of said lamp, occasion that for example normal light output, expectation are used or the like.In general, the diameter of said discharge tube is between the 8-20mm, and the length of said blast pipe 28 is the pipe diameter and even the bigger order of magnitude.The diameter of tubulose prolongation 18 can be between 2-5mm.Because this tubulose prolongation 18 has the little diameter De of diameter Dt than 31 places, said discharge tube 2 ends, therefore the diameter of said barrier film 38 is also still quite little, so it will can not weaken the mechanical strength of this discharge tube basically.In addition, in fact barrier film 38 can be positioned within the said blast pipe 28, as the embodiment shown in the accompanying drawing 2, and therefore can prevent mechanical impact well.
Turn over now and see accompanying drawing 3 to 6.Illustrated among the figure and can be implemented in one such as the step that forms the method for cold spot area on the discharge tube 2 of the such discharge lamp of the discharge lamp in the accompanying drawing 11.
This method is from form 2 beginnings of a discharge tube in known manner.When forming this discharge tube 2 or subsequently, at least one end 31 of this discharge tube 2, form a tubulose prolongation 18.At least in the zone of this discharge tube end 31, this tubulose prolongation 18 is formed the diameter De that has less than the diameter Dt of this discharge tube 2.Advantageously, that kind as described above is utilized the tubulose prolongation 18 of a blast pipe 28 as this discharge tube 2.This tubulose prolongation 18 is formed: the free end 41 of this tubulose prolongation 18 extends away from the end 31 of this discharge tube 2.A kind of like this structure with discharge tube 2 of a blast pipe 28 is known in the art, and it also comprises connecting line 10,12 and filament 14, does not just carry out illustrated in detail here and has explained.
In one embodiment of the invention, the part 36 that thickness has reduced is arranged on the said tubulose prolongation 18, that is, and and on the blast pipe 28 in this programme.The part 36 that this thickness has been reduced forms a barrier film 38 (also seeing accompanying drawing 2).Advantageously, use the material of said tubulose prolongation 18 that this barrier film 38 is formed on the free end 41 of this tubulose prolongation 18.
A kind of like this barrier film 38 can form through the manufacture process with reference to accompanying drawing 4 to 6 graphic extensions, and these accompanying drawings show the free end 41 of said blast pipe 28.At first, between the inner space 34 of said discharge tube 2 and ambient pressure, set up a pressure reduction.In practice, this is by perhaps realizing through the other said discharge tube 2 of discharge tube opening emptying through said blast pipe 28.This emptying is to represent through the adpting flange 50 of a standard vacuum equipment (not shown).Must be noted that: emptying discharge tube 2 (be emptying or rather, and charge into low-pressure gas) is the part of standard lamp manufacture process.Last in this step, the internal pressure of said discharge tube is about 4 millibars.
After emptying or even with this evacuation section side by side, in the position that needs are made barrier film 38, the free end 41 of said tubulose prolongation 18 is heated.This heating process is realized by known method, preferably uses the flame 42 of blowtorch 40 to heat.Under the sufficient condition of energy, the material that heating can the said tubulose prolongation 19 of fusion.In general, said discharge tube 2 is processed by glass, so use normal glass processing factory equipment just can realize heating and fusion, for example is similar to United States Patent (USP) the 4th, 329, disclosed equipment in No. 166.
Along with the material of said tubulose prolongation 28 in the position fusion that is receiving flame 42 heating, under the effect of the inner space 34 of said discharge tube 2 and the pressure reduction between external pressure, by the material production of this fusion an air bubble-shaped configuration 37.Attach Figure 4 and 5 and represent, along with the fusion of the material of said blast pipe 28, its wall 33 is at first inwardly heaved, and heaves the wall 35 (seeing accompanying drawing 5) that part reaches opposite side up to this.Flame 42 is thereafter also with the wall 35 of the said opposite side of fusion, separated two parts 28 of being connected to the said blast pipe on said blast pipe 2 and the said flange 50 ', 28 " (seeing accompanying drawing 6).During this period, the glass material of fusion is with continuing to appear air bubble-shaped configuration 37, and this air bubble-shaped configuration 37 begins in said blast pipe 28, to heave.
Everybody understands; Said air bubble-shaped configuration 37 also needs not be a complete bubble; But only comprise the curved surface that the material by fusion forms; Here the shape of this curved surface almost completely be by the viscosity of the pressure that puts on its both sides, material and hot strength with and the shape decision of fixing periphery, be similar to the shape of blowing soap bubbles.Like this, the wall of this air bubble-shaped configuration 37 has constituted a barrier film 38 or film.This barrier film 38 is that the melted material by said tubulose prolongation 18 forms.
After having produced this air bubble-shaped configuration 37, with the material cooled of said tubulose prolongation 18 to being lower than melt temperature, thereby said barrier film 38 is solidified.If said discharge tube 2 has no other opening, then when forming said barrier film 38, realized this sealing of emptying discharge tube 2.Like a dream, through forming the shape of air bubble-shaped, said barrier film 38 will present the space 34 that extremely is suitable for resisting in the said discharge tube 2 and the shape of the pressure reduction between the ambient pressure automatically.And this barrier film 38 can be withdrawn to the inside of said blast pipe 28 slightly, thereby protects this barrier film 38 to avoid the influence of external mechanical influence.The barrier film of processing in this way can be approached very much, at the 0.1mm even the littler order of magnitude.
Take off said discharge tube 2 from said emptying equipment, so just realized the sealing of said blast pipe 2 and the formation of said barrier film 38, only need be no more than several seconds time with a kind of single procedure of processing.Through accurately adjusting machined parameters, can regulate the thickness of said barrier film 38 and the degree of depth of withdrawal in said blast pipe 28.The bending of the blast pipe 28 shown in the accompanying drawing 2 and 7, can be before said barrier film 38 forms, during or carry out afterwards.
Be noted that usual processing method is to use two and even a plurality of relative flame to come for blast pipe seals, or when using a single flame to heat, rotate said blast pipe.And in the method that here proposes, a single flame is only used in suggestion, and does not rotate said blast pipe 28.But, other technology also is suitable for making disclosed barrier film 38.
After having processed said blast pipe 2, attach it on the lamp housing 4.Referring now to accompanying drawing 7, the amplification sectional view of lamp housing 4 has been shown among this figure.Like finding among this figure, said lamp housing 4 covers are sealing the end 31 of said discharge tube 2, and therefore also overlap the end 41 of sealing said tubulose prolongation 18, that is, and and the end of said blast pipe 28.Can find out also that in this accompanying drawing said blast pipe 28 is crooked, be the inner space that adapts to said lamp housing to adapt to this lamp housing 4, to say more accurately.Minimum for the heat load on the cold spot area at free end 41 places that make said blast pipe 28, said lamp housing 4 is provided with a dividing plate 60.This dividing plate 60 is divided into first space segment 64 and second space segment 62 with the inner space of this lamp housing 4, and therefore said dividing plate 60 is with these two space segments, 62,64 separate coming.This first space segment 64 is holding said drive circuit 16, and these second space segment, 62 covers are sealing the end 31 of the said discharge tube 2 that is connecting said tubulose prolongation 18.Like this, the heat that is produced by drive circuit 16 has been realized the isolation of the cold spot area on the end 41 with said blast pipe 28 at least in part.
Through on said lamp housing 4, in the zone of said second space segment 62, ventilating opening 66 is set at least, make the cooling of said discharge tube 2 cold spot areas obtain further reinforcement.But, also can such ventilating opening 66 be set for said first space segment 64 that cover is sealing said circuit 16, shown in accompanying drawing 7 embodiment illustrated.
The present invention is not limited to the shown and disclosed content of embodiment, but other element, improvement and change are also contained within the scope of the present invention.For example, those skilled in the art is clear, and said tubulose prolongation must not be the blast pipe of said discharge tube, though this is most preferred scheme, but a tubulose prolongation that can provide barrier film separately can be set on said discharge tube.And, a barrier film can all be set on the two ends of discharge tube.Such cold spot area can not only be formed on the helical lamp, and can be formed on all types of compact fluorescent lamps.Said barrier film can also be formed on the quite short blast pipe top seal.
