Abstract

The invention concerns a high-pressure metal-halide discharge lamp (1) for fitting in optical systems and with specific arc powers between 60 and 140 W per mm arc length, the discharge tube (2) containing tantalum and dysprosium. At wall loads between 40 and 85 W/cm2, optimum performance is obtained if the gas in the discharge tube contains, per cubic centimetre of tube volume, 0.2 to 1.5 mg of tantalum and dysprosium at a ratio by weight of tantalum to dysprosium of between 0.3 and 1.5. This gives lamp lives of 1,500 h at a colour temperature of 5,500 K.

Description

Metallhalogenid-Hochdruckentladungslampe für den Einbau in optische SystemeMetal halide high-pressure discharge lamp for installation in optical systems
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Metallhalogenid-Hoch- druckentladungslampe mit einer mittleren Bogenlei- stung zwischen 60 und 140 W/mm Bogenlänge für den Einbau in optische Systeme gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a metal halide high-pressure discharge lamp with an average arc output of between 60 and 140 W / mm arc length for installation in optical systems according to the preamble of claim 1.
Metallhalogenid-Hochdruckentladungslampen dieser Art werden insbesondere in Projektions- (Dia-, Overhead-, Schmalfilm- und Kinoprojektion) und Glasfaserbeleuchtungssysteme (Endoskopie, Mikrosko¬ pie, Effektbeleuchtung für Film und Fernsehen) eingesetzt, wo Licht mit Farbtemperaturen zwischen 4000 und 7000 K und guter bzw. sehr guter Farbwie¬ dergabe in allen Farbtemperaturbereichen benötigt wird. Sie zeichnen sich durch einen sehr kurzen Lichtbogen (wenige mm) und höchste Leuchtdichten (im Mittel einige 10 kcd/cm2) aus, was sie für den Einbau in Reflektoren oder sonstigen optisch abbil¬ denden Systemen prädestiniert.Metal halide high-pressure discharge lamps of this type are used in particular in projection (slide, overhead, narrow film and cinema projection) and glass fiber lighting systems (endoscopy, microscopy, effect lighting for film and television), where light with color temperatures between 4000 and 7000 K and good or very good color rendering is required in all color temperature ranges. They are characterized by a very short arc (a few mm) and extremely high luminance (on average a few 10 kcd / cm 2 ), which makes them ideal for installation in reflectors or other optically imaging systems.
Aus der EP 0 193 086 und der DE-A 4 040 858 sind Metallhalogenid-Hochdruckentladungslampen mit kurzen Lichtbögen und entsprechend hohen Leucht¬ dichten bekannt, die Licht mit tageslichtähnlicher spektraler Zusammensetzung abgeben. Nachteilig ist jedoch, daß diese Lampen nur mitt¬ lere Lebensdauern von einigen hundert Stunden aufweisen.Metal halide high-pressure discharge lamps with short arcs and correspondingly high luminance are known from EP 0 193 086 and DE-A 4 040 858, which emit light with a spectral composition similar to daylight. However, it is disadvantageous that these lamps only have an average lifespan of a few hundred hours.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Metallhaloge- nid-Hochdruckentladungslampe zu schaffen, die eine mittlere Lebensdauer von mindestens 1000 Betriebs¬ stunden hat, einen sehr kurzen Lichtbogen mit sehr hoher Leuchtdichte besitzt sowie eine Farbtempera- tur zwischen 4000 und 7000 K - bei sehr guter Farb¬ wiedergabe - aufweist und dieses Ziel mit möglichst wenig Elementen in der Füllung erreicht.The object of the invention is to provide a metal halide high-pressure discharge lamp which has an average lifespan of at least 1000 hours, has a very short arc with very high luminance and a color temperature between 4000 and 7000 K - with very good Color rendering - has and achieved this goal with as few elements in the filling.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merk- male des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1. Further advantageous features can be found in the subclaims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Metallhalogenid-Hochdruckent- ladungslampe wird bei spezifischen Bogenleistungen zwischen 60 und 140 W pro mm Bogenlänge und ver¬ gleichsweise geringen Wandbelastungen zwischen 40 und 85 W pro cm2 Wandfläche betrieben. Mit herkömm¬ lichen Füllungen treten nach kurzer Zeit bei Wand¬ belastungen unterhalb bzw. oberhalb von ungefähr 60 W pro cm2 Kolbenschwärzungen bzw. Entglasung auf, wobei der Wert für diese Grenze je nach Küh¬ lung variieren kann. Dadurch sinkt der nutzbare Lichtstrom bzw. die Lampenlebensdauer wird be¬ grenzt.The metal halide high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention is operated at specific arc powers between 60 and 140 W per mm arc length and comparatively low wall loads between 40 and 85 W per cm 2 wall area. With conventional fillings, bulb blackening or devitrification occurs after a short time at wall loads below or above about 60 W per cm 2 , the value for this limit varying depending on the cooling. As a result, the usable luminous flux drops and the lamp life is limited.
Der Füllung der erfindungsgemäßen Lampe, die aus Quecksilber, mindestens einem Edelgas und minde¬ stens einem Halogen und Cäsium besteht, ist Tantal und Dysprosium, vorteilhafterweise mit einem Ge- wichtsverhältnis zwischen 0,3 und 1,5 zugesetzt, wobei die Summe der Füllmengen dieser beiden wich¬ tigen Zusätze vorteilhafterweise zwischen 0,2 und 1 ,5 mg pro cm3 Gefäßvolumen beträgt. Tantal hält auch bei relativ geringen Wandbelastungen den Halogenkreisprozeß aufrecht und verhindert so weitgehend eine Schwärzung und Entglasung des Kolbens, so daß eine hohe mittlere Lebensdauer erzielt werden kann. Außerdem trägt Tantal zum Kontinuumsanteil im optischen Spektrum bei. Dyspro- sium sorgt mit seinem Viellinienspektrum für einen hohen Strahlungsfluß im sichtbaren Bereich des optischen Spektrums. Durch den erfindungsgemäßen Zusatz von Tantal und Dysprosium wird also die Entglasungsneigung und Kolbenschwärzung minimiert - d.h. die mittlere Lebensdauer wird entsprechend verlängert - und der Lichtstrom und die Farbwieder¬ gabe werden optimiert.The filling of the lamp according to the invention, which consists of mercury, at least one noble gas and at least one halogen and cesium, is tantalum and dysprosium, advantageously added with a weight ratio between 0.3 and 1.5, the sum of the fill quantities of these two important additives advantageously being between 0.2 and 1.5 mg per cm 3 of vessel volume. Tantalum maintains the halogen cycle process even with relatively low wall loads and thus largely prevents blackening and devitrification of the bulb, so that a long average service life can be achieved. Tantalum also contributes to the continuum portion in the optical spectrum. With its multi-line spectrum, Dysprosium ensures a high radiation flux in the visible range of the optical spectrum. The addition of tantalum and dysprosium according to the invention thus minimizes the tendency to devitrification and blackening of the bulb - ie the average life is extended accordingly - and the luminous flux and the color rendering are optimized.
Soll die Farbtemperatur gesenkt und/oder eine besonders gute Farbwiedergabe erzielt werden, kann optional zusätzlich Lithium bis zu 0,2 mg pro cm3 Gefäßvolumen zugesetzt werden, welches den Rotan¬ teil der Strahlung erhöht, was insbesondere bei einem Einsatz der Lampe in einem dichroitischen Kaltlichtreflektor von Vorteil sein kann, der die Farbtemperatur der reflektierten Strahlung gegen¬ über der Gesamtstrahlung der Entladung etwas er¬ höht. Außerdem ist Lithium ein atomarer Linien¬ strahler, der bevorzugt im heißen Bogenkern strahlt und deshalb von entsprechend fokussierenden Spe- zialreflektoren, die nur den inneren Bogenkern abbilden, besonders effizient abgestrahlt wird.If the color temperature is to be reduced and / or particularly good color rendering is to be achieved, lithium up to 0.2 mg per cm 3 of vessel volume can optionally be added, which increases the amount of rot in the radiation, which is particularly the case when the lamp is used in a dichroic Cold light reflector can be advantageous, which slightly increases the color temperature of the reflected radiation compared to the total radiation of the discharge. In addition, lithium is an atomic line radiator, which preferably radiates in the hot arc core and is therefore radiated particularly efficiently by correspondingly focusing special reflectors which only depict the inner arc core.
Zur Bogenstabilisierung kann das Entladungsgefäß Cäsium bis zu 0,8 mg pro cm3 Gefäßvolumen enthal- ten. Als Halogene werden vorteilhafterweise Jod und Brom in einem molaren Verhältnis zwischen 0,2 und 2 verwendet.To stabilize the arc, the discharge vessel can contain up to 0.8 mg per cm 3 of vessel volume. As halogens, iodine and bromine are advantageously used in a molar ratio between 0.2 and 2.
