Definitions

  • the invention is based on a high-pressure discharge lamp according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such lamps usually have a relatively low power (order of magnitude 100 W) and are suitable, for example, for indoor lighting. For various reasons, however, the fitting of car headlights with these lamps has become the focus of interest.
  • a one-sided socket discharge lamp which uses a two-sided squeezed discharge vessel as a glass bulb (DE-OS 33 41 846).
  • the power supply led to the end of the discharge vessel remote from the base is here led back along the discharge vessel to the base.
  • the ignition behavior of the lamp is problematic, since the high voltage required for this can easily lead to flashovers between the unprotected power supplies.
  • the free end of the discharge vessel, which is remote from the base is not supported and is therefore insufficiently protected against vibrations.
  • the invention ensures increased vibration and shock resistance.
  • the special design of the contact elements and their arrangement in the base prevents accidental incorrect connection and improves the high-voltage insulation. Touching live parts is excluded.
  • the construction of the base is particularly suitable even with very small dimensions of the lamp and ensures good contact with the socket.
  • the invention in particular makes it possible to carry out the adjustment of the base with respect to the piston with the particularly high accuracy required in headlight lamps.
  • the invention can be used both in lamps with outer bulbs and in lamps without outer bulbs, the base at the first end of the first case Outer bulb - which is provided with a pinch seal - is fastened, while in the second case the base rests directly on the first end of the discharge vessel.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 show a motor vehicle discharge lamp 1 with an evacuated cylindrical outer bulb 2 made of hard glass and a bilaterally squeezed discharge vessel 3 made of quartz glass, the cylindrical outer bulb 2 being aligned approximately in the axis of the discharge vessel 3.
  • the discharge vessel 3 contains two axially aligned electrodes 4, the electrical connection of which to the outside takes place in each case via a shaft 5, a molybdenum foil 6 and a feed line 7.
  • the filling of the discharge vessel 3 contains, in addition to an inert gas, 1 mg of mercury and 0.3 mg of halides of Na, Tl and Sc.
  • the outer bulb 2 has two ends 8, 9, each of which is closed in a vacuum-tight manner by a pinch seal. The melted pump tip 10 is attached laterally in the vicinity of the second end 9.
  • a first power supply 11 made of molybdenum is melted, the next located supply line 7a of the discharge vessel 3 is connected or forms a unit with it.
  • the first end 8 is held in a two-part base 12, consisting of a cup-shaped fixing sleeve 13 made of metal attached to the pinch seal 27 of the first end 8, which in turn is arranged in a receptacle 14 of a cylindrical adjusting ring 15 made of plastic.
  • the setting ring 15 is provided with two contact elements 16, 17, which produce a high-voltage-insulated and reverse-polarity-protected connection to an external power supply.
  • the first power supply 11 is welded to the first contact element 16, via which the high voltage is fed in during the ignition of the lamp.
  • a second power supply 18 connects the second supply line 7b of the discharge vessel to the second contact element 17.
  • the second power supply 18 is expediently divided into two parts, a melting part 19 and a return part 20.
  • the melting part 19 initially forms a U-shaped one Expansion loop 21 and is then guided axially through the second end 9 of the outer bulb 2 remote from the base, where it is melted vacuum-tight into the pinch seal of the second end 9.
  • the melting part 19 is made of molybdenum, so that an adaptation to the thermal expansion coefficient of tempered glass is guaranteed.
  • an end piece 22 of the return part 20 which extends at right angles to the lamp axis, is connected to the melting-down part 19 and is otherwise returned along the outer bulb parallel to the lamp axis up to the second contact element 17.
  • the return part 20 is made of stainless steel wire. It instructs the bend to the end piece 22 has an annular expansion loop 23 and is encased in its axially parallel section by a ceramic capillary tube 24 which - for HV insulation - still projects far into the plastic body of the adjusting ring 15.
  • the longitudinal axis of the outer bulb is shifted somewhat against the longitudinal axis of the discharge vessel (cf. FIG. 2).
  • the shift is in the order of 0.5 to 1 mm.
  • the pinch seal of the discharge vessel and the outer bulb are rotated by 90 ° to save space.
  • the cup-shaped fixing sleeve 13 has a circular base part 25 and a circumferential cylindrical edge 26 which points to the piston and is bent at a right angle.
  • the bottom part 25 is provided with a longitudinal slot 28 which is adapted to the cross section of the pinch 27 of the first end 8, resilient barbs 29 being bent on its broad sides and locking behind projecting pins 30 formed on the broad sides of the pinch 27.
  • the edge 26 of the Fixing sleeve 13 is provided with holes (not visible).
  • a hollow cylinder 31 is formed on the piston side of the cylindrical adjusting ring and forms the receptacle 14 for the fixing sleeve 13.
  • the diameter of the cylindrical edge 26 is expediently somewhat larger than the inside diameter of the hollow cylinder 31 and slotted in the longitudinal direction, so that when it is inserted into the receptacle, the fixing sleeve is provisionally held by spring forces.
  • the fixing sleeve can still be moved in all spatial directions. After the adjustment has been made, the fixing sleeve is connected to the hollow cylinder 31 by HF welding, plastic material penetrating into the bores of the edge 26, as a result of which a particularly secure fastening is achieved.
  • a massive cross piece 32 is formed on the setting ring 15 on the side opposite the hollow cylinder 31. It is equipped with two axially parallel blind holes 33, 34, which keep the greatest possible distance from one another in order to make high voltage flashovers and leakage currents more difficult.
  • the first contact element 16 is arranged in the first blind hole 33. It consists of a metallic hollow cylinder 35 with a bottom part 36.
  • the outside diameter of the hollow cylinder 35 is adapted to the inside diameter of the first blind hole 33, the bottom part 36 abutting the bottom of the blind hole.
  • the height of the hollow cylinder 35 corresponds approximately to half the depth of the blind hole 33. This serves to provide particularly good protection against high voltage flashovers.
  • a tubular projection 37 is integrally formed on the adjusting ring 15 in the center of the second blind hole 34.
  • the second contact element 17 consists of a second metallic hollow cylinder 38 with a second bottom part 39. However, the second bottom part 39 is arranged in the opposite way to the first bottom part 35 in the first contact element 16 on the second hollow cylinder 38.
  • the second contact element 17 is held on the tubular projection 37, the inside diameter of the second hollow cylinder 38 being matched to the outside diameter of the tubular projection 37.
  • the bottom part 39 lies on the end of the projection 37.
  • the height of the second hollow cylinder corresponds to approximately 75% of the depth of the blind hole. Overall, this arrangement of the contact elements ensures good protection both against high voltage flashovers and against leakage currents.
  • the first, live power supply 11 is welded centrally in the bottom part 36 of the first contact element.
  • the second power supply 18, coming from the base-distant second end 9 of the outer bulb 2, is returned in parallel to the outer bulb 2 in the axis of the second contact element 17. It is received by a bore 40 in the hollow cylinder 31. This bore 40 extends continuously to the tubular projection 37.
  • the diameter of the bore 40 is adapted to the outer diameter of the capillary tube 24 (made of electrically insulating, rigid material, for example ceramic or glass).
  • the second power supply 18 finally ends at the second base part 39, where it is welded.
  • the capillary tube 24 extends from the base distant end 9 of the outer bulb into the projection 37 and is guided in the bore 40 for about a third of its length, it acts as additional support for the second power supply 18 and the end 9 of the outer bulb remote from the base, whereby the vibration and shock resistance is further increased.
  • the capillary tube continues to act in a manner known per se as additional electrical insulation and protection against UV quanta.
  • the base construction according to the invention Due to their temperature resistance, plastics such as Ultem or Rayton are suitable for the setting ring.
  • plastics such as Ultem or Rayton are suitable for the setting ring.
  • a reduced overall height of the lamp is achieved due to the reduced installation depth of the base. Because there is no need for ceramic or micaver as the base material, the base is not only easy to machine, but is also characterized by its lower weight.
  • Dividing the second power supply in two makes it easier to manufacture the lamp and to adjust the base on the bulb.
