Description

Metallhalogenidentladungslampe für Projektions- zyreckeMetal halide discharge lamp for projection corner
Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Metallhalogenid¬ entladungslampe gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention is based on a metal halide discharge lamp according to the preamble of claim 1.
Derartige Lampen lassen sich beispielsweise für die Videoprojektion, Endoskopie oder auch für die Medizintechnik (Operationssaal-Leuchten) einsetzen. Besonders geeignet sind sie für die Videoprojektion in Flüssigkristalltechnik (LCD), insbesondere auch für Großbildfernsehschirme mit einem Seitenverhält¬ nis von 16:9. Typische Leistungsstufen sind 100 bis 1500 W.Such lamps can be used, for example, for video projection, endoscopy or also for medical technology (operating room lights). They are particularly suitable for video projection in liquid crystal technology (LCD), in particular also for large-screen television screens with an aspect ratio of 16: 9. Typical power levels are 100 to 1500 W.
Für die genannten Einsatzzwecke müssen die Lampen neben einer hohen Lichtausbeute vor allem eine gute bis sehr gute Farbwiedergabe aufweisen. Dies gilt insbesondere auch in Kombination mit Reflektoren, wie sie für Projektionszwecke verwendet werden. Eine gleichmäßige Leuchtdichte- und Farbverteilung auf der Projektionsfläche ist dabei von großer Wichtigkeit.In addition to a high luminous efficacy, the lamps must above all have good to very good color rendering for the purposes mentioned. This is especially true in combination with reflectors, such as those used for projection purposes. An even distribution of luminance and color on the projection surface is very important.
In der EP-A 0 459 786 ist eine derartige Lampe mit Reflektor offenbart. Um die genannten Forderungen zu erfüllen, weist die Oberfläche des Entladungsge¬ fäßes im Bereich einer ersten Elektrode eine re¬ flektierende/thermisch-isolierende BeSchichtung - im folgenden kurz "Wärmestaubelag" genannt - auf. Daran schließt sich unmittelbar ein Bereich an, in dem die Oberfläche eine Mattierung aufweist. Dieser Bereich erstreckt sich mindestens bis zur Mitte zwischen den zwei Elektroden und höchstens bis zur Mitte eines um die zweite Elektrode gewickelten Drahtes. Die Lampe ist für den axialen Einbau in einen Reflektor konzipiert. Senkrecht zur Reflek¬ torachse betrachtet ist einer der oder sind ggf. beide bei Wechselstrombetrieb in unmittelbarer Nähe der Elektrode entstehenden Bogenkerne von derSuch a lamp is included in EP-A 0 459 786 Reflector revealed. In order to meet the requirements mentioned, the surface of the discharge vessel has a reflective / thermally insulating coating in the region of a first electrode - hereinafter referred to as "heat accumulation coating" for short. This is immediately followed by an area in which the surface has a matt finish. This area extends at least to the middle between the two electrodes and at most to the middle of a wire wound around the second electrode. The lamp is designed for axial installation in a reflector. Viewed perpendicularly to the reflector axis, one or, if applicable, both arc cores formed in the immediate vicinity of the electrode during AC operation are from the
Mattierung überdeckt. Ein Nachteil ist, daß dadurch ein beträchtlicher Teil der von diesen Bogenkernen ausgehenden Strahlung durch Streuung an der Mattie¬ rung für eine Abbildung durch den Reflektor verlo- ren geht. Dadurch sinkt auch die effektiv nutzbare Lichtausbeute des Systems Lampe - Reflektor.Matting covered. A disadvantage is that a considerable part of the radiation emanating from these arc cores is lost as a result of scattering at the matting for imaging by the reflector. This also reduces the effective light output of the lamp-reflector system.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, diesen Nachteil zu beseitigen und eine Lampe für Projek- tionszwecke mit verbesserter Lichtausbeute zu schaffen, die sich zudem durch eine homogene Farb¬ verteilung, gute Farbwiedergabe und lange Lebens¬ dauer auszeichnet.The object of the present invention is to eliminate this disadvantage and to provide a lamp for projection purposes with improved luminous efficacy, which is also distinguished by a homogeneous color distribution, good color rendering and a long service life.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merk¬ male des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungen finden sich in den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1. Particularly advantageous designs can be found in the subclaims.
Der Grundgedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, die Mattierung der Oberfläche des Entladungsgefäßes auf einen Bereich zwischen den Elektroden zu begrenzen. Die Breite der mattierten Oberfläche ist dabei kleiner als oder höchstens gleich groß wie der Abstand der Elektroden. Dadurch ist sichergestellt, daß ein Großteil der Strahlung beider Bogenkerne als gerichtete Strahlung durch die klare, d.h. unmattierte Oberfläche hindurchtritt. Diese kann dann effizient mit Hilfe eines geeigneten, bei¬ spielsweise parabolischen Reflektors optisch abge- bildet werden. Durch den Wert der Breite der mat¬ tierten Oberfläche und der Rauhigkeit der Mattie¬ rung kann ein geeigneter Kompromiß zwischen Licht¬ strom und Gleichmäßigkeit der Ausleuchtung erzielt werden. Je nach Anforderung kann der Quotient aus Breite B der mattierten Oberfläche und Abstand d der Elektroden im Bereich 0,1 < B/d _< 1 variieren. Besonders gute Ergebnisse werden mit Quotienten zwischen 0,4 und 0,8 erreicht. Bevorzugt ist die Mattierung zentrisch zwischen den Elektroden auf der Oberfläche des Entladungsgefäßes angebracht.The basic idea of the invention is based on the matting of the surface of the discharge vessel to delimit an area between the electrodes. The width of the matt surface is smaller than or at most the same size as the distance between the electrodes. This ensures that a large part of the radiation from both arc cores passes through the clear, ie non-matted surface as directed radiation. This can then be optically imaged efficiently with the aid of a suitable, for example parabolic, reflector. A suitable compromise between luminous flux and uniformity of the illumination can be achieved by the value of the width of the matted surface and the roughness of the matting. Depending on the requirements, the quotient of width B of the matt surface and distance d of the electrodes can vary in the range 0.1 <B / d _ <1. Particularly good results are achieved with quotients between 0.4 and 0.8. The matting is preferably applied centrally between the electrodes on the surface of the discharge vessel.
Der Vorteil der Erfindung wird deutlich, wenn man die Abnahme des Lichtstroms einer Lampe durch konventionelle Mattierung - gemäß der Lehre der EP-A 0 459 786 - mit jener durch eine erfindungsge¬ mäße Mattierung vergleicht. Während im ersten Fall der nutzbare Lichtstrom auf 65 % abnimmt, erreicht eine vergleichbare erfindungsgemäße Lampe bei identischer Gleichmäßigkeit der Ausleuchtung noch typisch 80 % des Lichtstroms der unmattierten Lampe.The advantage of the invention becomes clear when one compares the decrease in the luminous flux of a lamp by conventional matting - according to the teaching of EP-A 0 459 786 - with that by a matting according to the invention. While in the first case the usable luminous flux decreases to 65%, a comparable lamp according to the invention still achieves typically 80% of the luminous flux of the unmatted lamp with identical uniformity of illumination.
Das Entladungsgefäß besteht aus einem lichtdurchläs¬ sigen Material, beispielsweise Quarzglas. Es ist an zwei Enden hermetisch verschlossen, z.B. durchThe discharge vessel consists of a translucent material, for example quartz glass. It is hermetically sealed at two ends, e.g. by
Quetschdichtungen, und kann an einem oder beiden Enden mit einem Wärmestaubelag beschichtet sein. Ein wichtiges Merkmal ist, daß sich in jedem Fall an beiden Rändern der mattierten Oberfläche zu¬ nächst ein klarer, d.h. unbeschichteter Bereich anschließt. Dieser klare Bereich der Oberfläche kann an beiden Enden unterschiedlich breit ausge¬ führt sein, wodurch zwei ebenfalls unterschiedlich ausgedehnte Wärmestaubeläge resultieren. Bei verti¬ kaler Betriebsweise befindet sich der weniger ausgedehnte Wärmestaubelag oben. Auf diese Weise kann einer sich durch Konvektion einstellenden Temperaturdifferenz zwischen oberem und unterem Ende des Entladungsgefäßes entgegengewirkt und da¬ durch die Lichtausbeute erhöht werden.Crimp seals, and can be attached to one or both Ends be coated with a heat accumulation coating. An important feature is that in each case a clear, ie uncoated, area adjoins both edges of the matt surface. This clear area of the surface can be of different widths at both ends, which results in two differently expanded heat accumulation layers. In the vertical mode of operation, the less extensive heat accumulation layer is at the top.

Vorteilhaft wird die Lampe mit einem Reflektor zu einer Baueinheit zusammengefügt, wie in EP-A 459 786 beschrieben. Dabei ist die Lampe nähe¬ rungsweise axial im Reflektor montiert. Der Reflek- tor ist z.B. dichroitisch beschichtet. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Lampe im Re¬ flektor so orientiert, daß der geringer ausgedehnte Wärmestaubelag in der Nähe des Reflektorscheitels angeordnet ist. Dadurch wird die Abschattung des Reflektors gering gehalten und folglich die Licht¬ ausbeute optimiert.The lamp is advantageously combined with a reflector to form a structural unit, as described in EP-A 459 786. The lamp is approximately axially mounted in the reflector. The reflector is e.g. dichroic coated. In a preferred embodiment, the lamp in the reflector is oriented such that the less extensive heat accumulation layer is arranged in the vicinity of the reflector apex. As a result, the shading of the reflector is kept low and consequently the light output is optimized.
