Description
- This invention relates to operation of electron discharge devices, such as fluorescent lamps, that require the use of a ballast circuit for starting purposes.
- Generally, the ballast circuit for multiple fluorescent lamps include a power supply transformer having a plurality of low voltage output windings connected to the opposite filaments of the lamps, with a capacitor connected to one of the output windings to control the supply under starting and running conditions. Various regulating devices for ballasted fluorescent lamps are known or have been proposed to protect lamp filaments and for other purposes, requiring extensive and often special circuit modifications.
- It is an important object of the present invention to provide a low cost current control device capable of being readily interfaced with existing ballasted fluorescent lamp assemblies to improve ballast efficiency and prolong lamp life expectancy.
- In accordance with the present invention, the low voltage output of a standard ballast circuit connected to one of the filaments of a pair of series connected fluorescent lamps is modified in such a manner as to reduce the current drawn and decrease the operating temperature of the ballast during start up without adversely affecting restart. Toward that end, a current controller is inserted between said one of the lamp filaments and a low voltage output of the ballast circuit otherwise directly connected to such filament. The current controller includes a regulating capacitor, having a capacitance above 4.7 microfarads, that is cyclically charged under control of a current rectifying diode through which a pulsating D.C. plate supply voltage is applied to said one of the filaments in order to maintain its associated lamp in a non-firing state during start up.
- Figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating the installation of the present invention.
- Figure 2 is a circuit diagram illustrating in greater detail one embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 3 is a circuit diagram illustrating another embodiment.
- Figure 4 is a graphical illustration of the voltage signal characteristic modified in accordance with the present invention.
- Referring now to the drawings in detail, Figure 1 diagrammatically illustrates a pair of series connected
electron discharge devices AC voltage source 14 through astandard ballast circuit 16. Thepower lines electron discharge lamps output voltage lines current controller component 28 is placed in one of the three low voltage outputs of the standard ballast circuit for the series connectedfluorescent lamps - Figure 4 illustrates a
standard waveform curve 30 characterizing a typical output signal of the ballast circuit showing a sloping square wave shape.Curve 32 represents the output signal modified by thecurrent controller 28, showing an increase in voltage amplitude without any change in phase. The affect of such output signal modification is to apply a potential difference across thelamp 12 less than the firing voltage applied tolamp 10 for starting both lamps and drawing a reduced current. Further, the overall operating temperature of theballast 16 is typically reduced from 129° F to approximately 112° F to effectively prolong the life thereof. Also, firing of the lamps at a lower temperature increases their life expectancy. Despite the fact thatlamp 12 is maintained in an "off" firing state, immediate refiring occurs under the low potential difference across its opposite filaments to insure restart following power interruptions of short duration. - Figure 2 illustrates in greater detail a series reactor type of
standard ballast circuit 16 including atransformer 34 having aprimary winding 36 connected across theAC voltage lines opposite terminals secondary output windings transformer 34.Secondary winding 42 is connected at one end to theterminal 38 of the primary winding and at its other end to onecathode filament 48 associated withlamp 10 throughoutput line 22. Thefilament 48 is connected directly toline 18 to which theprimary winding terminal 38 is also connected. Theopposite cathode filament 50 oflamp 10 is connected across thesecondary winding 44 byoutput voltage lines capacitor 52 is connected acrosslines - The
filament 50 oflamp 10 is interconnected, in parallel with onefilament 54 oflamp 12, to thesecondary winding 44. Thesecondary winding 46 is connected across theinput terminals current controller 28 through which a low voltage output of theballast 16 is connected byline 26 to theother cathode filament 60 oflamp 12.Input terminal 58 is directly connected toterminal 40 of the primary winding to whichinput voltage line 20 is connected. - The
current controller 28 includes a regulatingcapacitor 62 connected tosecondary winding 46 throughterminal 56 for cyclic recharging. A current rectifyingdiode 64 is connected in series withcapacitor 62 across thesecondary winding 46 throughjumper 66 andterminal 58 and thereby in parallel withcapacitor 62 to both sides of thefilament 60. The capacitordiode network formed by the current controller will accordingly increase the expected magnitude of the voltage output ofsecondary winding 46 as reflected by the impuresinusoidal voltage curve 32 shown in Figure 4. A pulsating DC current is thereby fed to thefilament 60 to establish the nonfiring potential difference acrossfilaments lamp 10 with a reduction in current drawn and the aforementioned decrease in temperature conditions. - In the embodiments illustrated, the AC voltage source has an operating voltage of 120 VAC to 347 VAC at a line frequency of approximately 50 to 60 Hz, while the regulating
capacitor 62 has a capacitance value above 4.7 microfarads, below which the lumen output level of the lamps become impractical. Thecapacitor 62 is furthermore non-poled so that a low AC output of 5 to 6 volts atterminal 56 may charge the capacitor negative or positive. When the capacitor charge reachesfilament 60, bothcapacitors Capacitor 62 then recharges throughdiode 64. Such push pull action of thecurrent controller 28 accounts for the output voltage modification aforementioned and the decrease in current and temperature conditions. - Figure 3 illustrates another embodiment of the invention wherein a transformer ballast type of standard lamp ballast circuit 16' is utilized for the
lamps current controller 28 as in the case of Figure 2. In Figure 3, theinput voltage lines transformer 70 in the ballast circuit 16'. Winding 72 oftransformer 70 is connected acrosslines 18 and 18'. The transformer 34' is connected across lines 18' to provide the low voltage outputs to the lamp filaments as hereinbefore described with respect to Figure 2.
