PATENTAMT.PATENT OFFICE.
Bei elektrischen Dampflampen mit flüssiger Kathode tritt eine Verdampfung des Kathodenstoffes ein, wodurch ein Teil der Stromarbeit verloren geht. Um auch die an der Kathode selbst bei niedrigen Stromdichten auftretende, oft beträchtliche Stromarbeit für die Lichtstrahlung nutzbar zu machen, wird diese aus einem schwer verdampf baren Metall, wie Wolfram, Tantal u. dgl., gebildet, jedochIn the case of electric vapor lamps with a liquid cathode, the cathode substance evaporates one, whereby some of the electricity work is lost. This also applies to the cathode, even at low current densities to make use of the often considerable amount of electricity that occurs for the light radiation these are formed from a metal that is difficult to evaporate, such as tungsten, tantalum, and the like, however
ίο gelingt es nicht ohne weiteres, dann einen Strom niederer Spannung hindurchzuschicken, wenn diese sich nicht auf hoher Temperatur befindet. Deshalb muß die Kathode auf hohe Temperatur erhitzt werden. Die. Wirkung tritt bei verhältnismäßig nicht zu hohen Temperaturen ein, und wenn man die Kathode noch mit einem Überzug aus geeigneten Oxyden versieht.If you don't succeed easily, then one Send low voltage current through it if it is not at high temperature is located. Therefore, the cathode must be heated to a high temperature. The. effect occurs at relatively not too high temperatures, and when the cathode still provided with a coating of suitable oxides.
Die Erhitzung der Kathode wird im allgemeinen durch einen durch sie hindurchgehenden Hilfsstrom erreicht, der dann dauernd in Tätigkeit bleiben muß. Durch eine einfache Anordnung aber kann man den Hilfsstrom entbehren und trotzdem die Kathode dauernd auf hoher Temperatur erhalten. Dazu ist die feste Kathode an ihrem der Anode zugewandten Ende so angeordnet, daß sie durch den Zündungäbogen auf hohe Temperatur erhitzt wird. Dies kann auch auf andere Weise durch einen Hilfsbogen geschehen. Damit nach dem Zünden die Temperatur erhalten bleibt, muß das Ende der festen Kathodg, so dünn und klein sein, daß die an ihr auftretende Stromarbeit genügt, die Temperatur zu erhalten. Durch geeignete Abmessungen und Kühlung durch Ableiten kann der Strom beliebig zwischen fester und flüssiger Kathode verteilt werden.The heating of the cathode is generally carried out by one passing through it Auxiliary current reached, which must then remain permanently in action. Through a simple Arrangement, however, one can dispense with the auxiliary current and still use the cathode permanently preserved at high temperature. For this purpose, the fixed cathode is facing towards the anode End arranged so that it is heated to high temperature by the ignition arc will. This can also be done in another way using an auxiliary bow. So that the temperature is maintained after ignition remains, the end of the solid cathode must be so thin and small that that which occurs at it Electricity work is enough to maintain the temperature. The current arbitrarily distributed between solid and liquid cathode.
Eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist auf der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is shown schematically in the drawing.
Die Kathode besteht aus einem leicht schmelzbaren Metall a, z. B. Quecksilber, und einem ringförmig aus dünnem Blech gebildeten Teil b, z. B. aus Tantal. Der Quecksilberbogen wird durch ein enges Rohr c aus feuerfestem Material gezündet, und geht dann durch den festen Ring b nach der Anode, den Ring so lange erhitzend, bis seine Temperatur genügt, die Entladung selber ganz oder teilweise zu übernehmen.The cathode consists of an easily fusible metal a, e.g. B. mercury, and a ring formed from thin sheet metal part b, z. B. made of tantalum. The mercury arc is ignited through a narrow tube c made of refractory material, and then goes through the fixed ring b to the anode, heating the ring until its temperature is sufficient to take over the discharge itself in whole or in part.
