Definitions
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- EP 0 193 086 and DE-A 4 040 858 which emit light with a spectral composition similar to daylight.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- the discharge vessel can contain up to 0.8 mg per cm 3 of vessel volume.
- halogens iodine and bromine are advantageously used in a molar ratio between 0.2 and 2.
- the figure shows a sectional side view of a metal halide high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention
- a metal halide discharge lamp 1 according to the invention with a power consumption of 400 W is shown schematically (not to scale) as it can be used in a reflector system.
- the discharge vessel 2 made of quartz glass has an essentially spherical shape and has a neck 3, 4 at two diametrically opposed locations, into which pin-shaped tungsten electrodes 5, 6 are melted by means of sealing foils 7, 8 made of molybdenum .
- the ends of the sealing foils 7, 8 facing away from the discharge space are welded to power supply lines 9, 10, which are connected to the electrical connections in the reflector when installed in a reflector system.
- Table 1 shows two fillings according to the invention of the discharge vessel 2 of a 400 W lamp and the lifetimes achieved in each case as well as the lighting data of this lamp. By adding lithium in the filling 2, the color temperature is reduced by approximately 500 K compared to filling 1. Table 1
- Luminous efficacy in lm / W 70 69 average luminance in kcd / cm 2 30 30
- a further exemplary embodiment relates to a metal halide discharge lamp according to the invention with a power consumption of 270 W. Its structure differs from that of the lamp shown in the figure essentially only by a smaller discharge volume and a shorter electrode spacing and is therefore not illustrated.
- Table 2 shows a filling according to the invention of the discharge vessel of a 270 W lamp and the light-technical data of this lamp.
- Luminous efficacy 70 lm / W average luminance 35 kcd / cm 2
