Description

Verfahren zum vakuumdichten Einschmelzen von als Stromleiter dienenden Metallfolien Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum vakuumdichten Einschmelzen :elektrischer Stromleiter in hochschmelzende Gläser, insbesondere in aus Quarzglas bestehende Hochdrucklampen, bei dem als Stromleiter in bekannter Weise eine Folie aus Molybdän oder Wolfram verwendet wird, deren Dicke nur höchstens etwa 2o #t beträgt, vorzugsweise aber- nur eine Dicke von i o bis 15 #z aufweist. Solche Metallfolien haben sich besonders als Stromeinführungsleiter für die aus Quarzglas bestehenden Hochdruckmetalldampflampen bewährt, die Dampfdrücke bis zu i oo Atm. und darüber erreichen können.Method for vacuum-tight melting of metal foils serving as current conductors is at most about 20 #t, but preferably only has a thickness of 10 to 15 #z. Such metal foils have proven themselves particularly as current introduction conductors for the high-pressure metal vapor lamps made of quartz glass, the vapor pressures of up to 100 atmospheres. and can achieve it.

Es ist bekannt, daß beim Einschmelzen dieser bei höheren Temperaturen leicht oxydierenden Molybdän- und Wolframfolien mit Sorgfalt darauf geachtet werden muß, daß die mit der Folie in Verbindung stehende Atmosphäre frei von oxydierenden Gasen ist. Man hat daher bisher das Einschmelzen entweder unter Vakuum oder in Gegenwart von reduzierenden oder indifferenten Gasen vorgenommen.It is known that when these are melted down at higher temperatures easily oxidizing molybdenum and tungsten foils are carefully observed it must be that the atmosphere in contact with the film is free of oxidizing agents Gases is. So far, one has therefore melted down either under vacuum or in the presence made of reducing or inert gases.

Diese Vorsichtsmaßregel, die eine beträchtliche Erschwerung des Einschmelzvorgangs darstellt, ist nicht erforderlich, wenn erfindungsgemäß zuerst auf die Molybdän- oder Wolframfolie ein äußerst dünner, nur eine Dicke von etwa i #L und weniger aufweisender Überzug .aus einem schwer schmelzbaren, nicht oxydierenden Metall, insbesondere Rhodium, aufgebracht und wenn das darauffolgende Einbetten in das bis zum Erweichen erhitzte hochschmelzende Glas in atmosphärischer Luft vorgenommen wird. Es hat sich überraschenderweise ;gezeigt, daß ein solcher äußerst feiner Überzug, der also eine wesentlich geringere Dicke aufweist !als die Metallfolie selbst, tatsächlich ausreicht, um mit Sicherheit eine Oxydation der Metallfolie zu verhindern, so daß diese nunmehr gefahrlos in atmosphärischer Luft eingeschmolzen werden. kann.This precaution made the meltdown process considerably more difficult represents, is not necessary if according to the invention first on the molybdenum or tungsten foil is extremely thin, only about i #L thick and less Coating .from a hard-to-melt, non-oxidizing metal, in particular Rhodium, applied and if the subsequent embedding in the until softening heated refractory glass is made in atmospheric air. It has Surprisingly; it was shown that such an extremely fine coating, the one much lower Thickness! Than the metal foil itself, actually sufficient to definitely prevent oxidation of the metal foil, so that these can now be melted down safely in atmospheric air. can.

Der äußerst feine Schutzüberzug über c Metallfolie--wird durch an sich bekannte Verfahren, wie beispielsweise Aufdampfen, Kathodenzerstäubung oder durch Elektrolyse, @erzeugt. Beim Einschmelzen der Folie kann der bis zum Erweichen .erhitzte und sich um die Folie legende hochschmelzende Glaskörper gegebenenfalls noch zusätzlich an die Folie angequetscht werden.The extremely fine protective coating over c metal foil - is through an known methods, such as vapor deposition, cathode sputtering or by electrolysis, @generated. When the film is melted, it can soften .heated high-melting glass bodies placed around the film, if necessary can also be squeezed onto the film.

Man hat zwar bereits Stromeinführungsleiter mit- Metall überzogen. Dort handelt es sich jedoch um Drähte, die ill gewöhnliche Gläser eingeschmolzen werden sollen und ferner um wesentlich dickere Metallüberzüge, da diese dazu dienen, einen geeigneten Gesamtausdehnungskoeffizienten des mit Metall ummantelten Drahtes zu erzielen.It is true that current lead-in conductors have already been covered with metal. There, however, it is a matter of wires that have melted down ordinary glasses and also to have much thicker metal coatings, as these are used to a suitable total expansion coefficient of the metal-sheathed wire to achieve.

Die bekannte Maßnahme, die Oxydation von Einschmelzdrähten durch eine Schutzschicht .aus Borax oder ähnlichen Stoffen zu verhindern, ist völlig unbrauchbar, wenn es sich um hochschmelzende Gläser handelt.The well-known measure, the oxidation of fuse wires by a Protective layer of borax or similar substances to prevent is completely useless, when it comes to high-melting glasses.

Rhödiumüberzüge sind an sich bekannt, ,ivur-den aber bisher nur zu :ganz anderen 1e@ benutzt, z. B. Silbergegenstände oder `Refie'k' n gegen Korrosion zu schützen.Rhodium coatings are known per se, but have only been used so far : completely different 1e @ used, e.g. B. Silver objects or `Refie'k 'n against corrosion to protect.
