Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric light bulb with an incandescent spiral, which is enclosed by a tube bulb and is supported by at least one retaining ring, which in turn is in contact with the tube bulb.
  • the incandescent lamp is a gas-filled incandescent lamp (so-called halogen light floodlight) with a tube bulb flattened at both ends, especially of halogen line spotlights. Furthermore, the invention relates to the manufacture of the tubular bulb by forming and inserting the retaining ring in the piston.
  • the spiral is provided in a known manner with the retaining ring in such a way that a mandrel is inserted into the spiral and the part of the retaining ring comprising the spiral is clamped onto the turns of the spiral, after which the spiral provided with the retaining ring is inserted into the tube bulb and the Mandrel is withdrawn.
  • the relatively brittle spiral can break when the mandrel is inserted into the spiral, during the clamping of the retaining ring on the spiral, the spiral can deform in an undesirable manner and further disadvantageous deformations can occur when the spiral is inserted with the retaining ring into the piston.
  • the retaining rings are only loosely fitted to the inner wall of the tube bulb, they cannot hold the spiral in the axis of the bulb with corresponding certainty during the operation of the incandescent lamp, so the spiral can easily move out of the axis of the tube bulb.
  • an essential process step in the manufacture of the retaining ring is the one in which a mandrel is drawn into the spiral in order to be able to pull the ring part comprising the spiral onto the spiral.
  • the object of the invention in addition to eliminating the disadvantages mentioned above, is to provide an incandescent lamp with such a retaining ring, which forms a unit with the tubular bulb, and furthermore the development of such a method for producing the tubular bulb with the retaining ring, with the help of which the complete automation of lamp assembly manufacturing technology can be solved.
  • the invention is based on the finding that the spiral can be held more precisely and without deformation in the axis line of the tube bulb during operation of the lamp if the retaining rings form a unit with the tube bulb and not with the spiral.
  • the spiral of gas-filled incandescent lamps with a tubular bulb flattened at both ends was converted from one with the other Inner wall of the tubular piston in contact with the first section and adjoining, surrounding the spiral and thereby holding this in the axis of the tubular piston second section existing retaining ring, the first of which is provided with a length exceeding a complete turn and a larger diameter Section presses against the inner wall of the tube bulb, during which the second section adjoining the first section, which has a smaller diameter and also a length exceeding a complete turn, has an inner diameter which exceeds the outer diameter of the spiral arranged in its interior and thus surrounds it loosely.
  • one end of a flexible metal wire is attached to a mandrel of appropriate size provided with an insert, the wire by winding onto the mandrel body and onto the insert, likewise in a length exceeding at least one winding turn applied, then cut the wire at its unsecured end.
  • the tube piston located in the axis of the mandrel is then pulled onto the mandrel provided with the wire up to a corresponding stop point. As soon as the tube bulb reaches the stop point, the attached wire end is exposed by pulling back the insert.
  • the larger diameter section of the retaining ring made of flexible metal wire now presses against the inner wall of the tube bulb.
  • the mandrel is withdrawn and, if necessary, positioned to produce another retaining ring.
  • the largest diameter of the retaining ring wound on the mandrel must be designed in such a way that it does not prevent the tube piston from being pulled onto the mandrel, ie the tube piston can be guided onto the mandrel without friction.
  • the diameter of the smaller diameter section of the retaining ring wound on the mandrel is determined by the dimensions of the insert and the elasticity of the wire and has to be such that it surrounds the spiral of the light bulb only loosely.
  • the spiral of the incandescent lamp is pulled into the retaining rings using a special tool.
  • the spiral can move freely inside the retaining ring, so it retains its shape both during assembly and during operation and does not deform.
  • the gas-filled incandescent lamp provided with a retaining ring designed according to the invention can be operated not only in a horizontal position but also in any position.
  • the retaining ring remains in any position of the piston due to its position pressed against the inner wall of the piston in the position assumed during assembly, in contrast to the conventional retaining rings, which only remain in the position received during assembly in the horizontal position of the piston.
  • a holding a spiral 2 in the axis of the tube bulb 1 holding ring 3 is arranged.
  • the retaining ring 3 has two sections: a spiral-shaped first section which exceeds a complete winding path in length and which presses tightly against the inner wall of the tubular bulb 1, and this adjoins the first section and also has a length which adjoins the first section spiral-shaped second section which completely exceeds the winding path, the inside diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the first section, but exceeds the outside diameter of the spiral which extends in its interior.
  • the retaining ring 3 cannot move in the tube bulb 1, but the spiral 2 can move in the retaining ring 3 in the axial direction, since the length of the second section of the retaining ring is greater than one turn of the winding but shorter than the conventional one, which means that The number of spiral passages that are not glowing in a corresponding manner and are excluded from the function is lower.
  • FIGS. 3a and 3b An example of the manufacture and insertion of this retaining ring 3 in the piston is illustrated schematically in FIGS. 3a and 3b.
  • one end of a flexible metal wire in the present example a tungsten wire
  • a tungsten wire is inserted into a recess formed on the mandrel 5 after the displacement of an insert 6.
  • the insert 6 is returned to its original position, whereby the wire end is fastened.
  • the mandrel 5 is moved in the radial and tangential direction, during which the insert 6 also moves forward.
  • the wire winds on the mandrel body and on the insert.
  • the tube piston 1 arranged in the axis line of the mandrel 5 is moved forward until a predetermined position is reached (up to a stop point), i.e.
  • the advantage of the retaining ring designed according to the invention is that the deformation of the spiral of the incandescent lamp is largely prevented and is secured during operation of holding the spiral in the axis line of the lamp in any position of the incandescent lamp.
