Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Hochdruckentladungslampe gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp according to the Preamble of claim 1.

Es handelt sich dabei insbesondere um Metallhalogenidlampen, deren Farbwiedergabe dadurch verbessert wird, daß ein keramisches Entladungsgefäß benutzt wird, das eine Erhöhung der Betriebstemperatur gegenüber einem Entladungsgefäß aus Quarzglas gestattet. Im Prinzip ist eine Anwendung aber auch bei Natriumhochdrucklampen möglich.These are in particular metal halide lamps, their color rendering is improved in that a ceramic discharge vessel is used that an increase in the operating temperature compared to a Discharge vessel made of quartz glass allowed. In principle is an application but also possible with high pressure sodium lamps.

Aus EP-A 609 477 und EP-A 528 428 sind bereits Lampen bekannt, bei denen ein keramisches Entladungsgefäß mittels zweier Endstopfen aus nichtleitendem Cermet (Kompositmaterial) abgedichtet ist. Der Ausdehnungskoeffizient des Cermets liegt zwischen dem des keramischen Entladungsgefäß und dem der Durchführung. Die Durchführung besteht mindestens auf einer Seite aus einem Rohr aus Molybdän oder aus einem anderem Metall, dessen Ausdehnungskoeffizient ähnlich klein wie der des Molybdäns ist., z.B. Wolfram, Rhenium oder eine Legierung dieser Metalle. Das Rohr ist in den Stopfen direkt eingesintert.Lamps are already known from EP-A 609 477 and EP-A 528 428, in which a ceramic discharge vessel using two non-conductive end plugs Cermet (composite material) is sealed. The coefficient of expansion of the cermet lies between that of the ceramic discharge vessel and the implementation. The implementation consists of at least one Side made of a tube made of molybdenum or another metal, the Coefficient of expansion is similar to that of molybdenum, e.g. Tungsten, Rhenium or an alloy of these metals. The pipe is in the stopper sintered directly.

Aus der EP-A 573 880 ist eine Lampe bekannt, die einen Niobstift als Durchführung verwendet. Er ist im Stopfen mittels Glaslot eingeschmolzen. Zur Verbesserung der Abdichtung wird ein überstehender Grat mit Abscherkante verwendet.From EP-A 573 880 a lamp is known which has a niobium stick as a leadthrough used. It is melted into the stopper using glass solder. For A protruding ridge with a shearing edge improves the seal used.

Bei den für derartige Lampen gewünschten hohen Lebensdauern hat sich jedoch gezeigt, daß die Lampen im Bereich der Grenzschicht zwischen Endstopfen und Durchführung schließlich aufgrund der thermischen Wechselbelastung undicht werden.With the long lifetimes desired for such lamps, however, showed that the lamps are in the area of the interface between end plugs and finally due to the thermal alternating load leak.

Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Hochdruckentladungslampe gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bereitzustellen, die eine hohe Lebensdauer ermöglicht.The object of the present invention is a high-pressure discharge lamp according to the preamble of claim 1 to provide a high Lifetime enables.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Besonders vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen finden sich in den abhängigen Ansprüchen. This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1 solved. Particularly advantageous configurations can be found in the dependent ones Claims.

Dadurch, daß das Rohr eine Ausstülpung besitzt, die sich im wesentlichen quer zur Achse des Rohres erstreckt und im Endstopfen verankert ist, wird das Ausbilden von Undichtigkeiten entlang der Grenzfläche zuverlässig verhindert.In that the tube has a protuberance, which is essentially extends transversely to the axis of the tube and is anchored in the end plug the formation of leaks along the interface reliably prevented.

Bevorzugt ist die Ausstülpung radialsymmetrisch und hat eine geringe Dikke von höchstens 1 mm, bevorzugt weniger als 0,5 mm. Der Außendurchmesser der Ausstülpung sollte bevorzugt höchstens 75% des Außendurchmessers des Endstopfens entsprechen. Vorteilhaft wird eine Lochscheibe verwendet, die am Rohr befestigt ist. Gut geeignet ist auch ein ringförmiger Grundkörper mit Strahlenkranz, so daß die einzelnen Strahlen radial nach außen laufen. Insbesondere kann die Ausstülpung ein rohrartiges Kragenstück zur besseren Befestigung am Rohr besitzen.The protuberance is preferably radially symmetrical and has a small thickness of at most 1 mm, preferably less than 0.5 mm. The outside diameter the protuberance should preferably be at most 75% of the outside diameter of the end plug. A perforated disc is advantageous used, which is attached to the tube. A ring-shaped one is also suitable Base body with a radiation ring, so that the individual rays are directed radially run outside. In particular, the protuberance can be a tubular collar piece for better attachment to the pipe.

Insbesondere läuft die Ausstülpung an ihrem äußeren Rand spitz zu, so daß eine besonders gute Verankerung im Cermet erreicht wird. Außerdem werden Störungen der Cermetstruktur durch den fließenden Übergang vermieden.In particular, the protuberance tapers at its outer edge, so that a particularly good anchorage in the cermet is achieved. Also be Disruptions in the cermet structure due to the smooth transition avoided.

Gute Ergebnisse lassen sich erzielen, wenn das Rohr aus zwei Teilrohren zusammengesetzt ist, deren Enden im Bereich des Endstopfens miteinander verbunden sind. Dabei gibt es mehrere Möglichkeiten, wie die Ausstülpung im Bereich der Verbindung zwischen den Teilrohren angebracht ist. Bei einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Ausstülpung zwischen den beiden Teilrohren als separates Teil eingesetzt. Bei einem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Ausstülpung am verbindungsseitigen Ende eines Teilrohres als integraler Teil des Teilrohres angeformt. Dabei kann die Ausstülpung am verbindungsseitigen Ende entweder des entladungsseitigen Teilrohrs oder des entladungsabgewandten Teilrohrs angeformt sein.Good results can be achieved if the tube consists of two partial tubes is assembled, the ends of which are in the area of the end plug are connected. There are several options, such as the protuberance is attached in the area of the connection between the partial pipes. At a The first embodiment is the protuberance between the two Pipe tubes used as a separate part. In a second embodiment is the protuberance at the connection-side end of a partial pipe as integral part of the pipe section. The protuberance on connection-side end of either the discharge-side partial tube or of the partial tube facing away from the discharge.

Die Verbindung zwischen den beiden Teilrohren kann auf verschiedene Weise erfolgen. Eine erste Möglichkeit ist, daß die beiden Teilrohre stumpf aneinander angeschweißt sind. Eine andere Möglichkeit ist, daß ein kurzes Stück des entladungsseitigen Teilrohrs in das entladungsabgewandte Teilrohr eingepaßt ist. Die Durchmesser der beiden Teilrohre sind in diesem Fall unterschiedlich und so aufeinander abgestimmt, daß der Innendurchmesser des einen Rohres dem Außendurchmesser des anderen Rohres angepaßt ist. The connection between the two partial tubes can be different Way. A first possibility is that the two partial tubes are blunt are welded together. Another possibility is that a short one Piece of the partial tube on the discharge side into the partial tube facing away from the discharge is fitted. The diameters of the two partial tubes are in this case different and coordinated so that the inner diameter one tube is adapted to the outer diameter of the other tube.

Eine besonders gute Verankerung der Ausstülpung im Endstopfen wird erreicht, wenn die Oberfläche der Ausstülpung uneben ist. Statt plan zu sein, kann diese halskrausenartig gewellt sein oder auch eine hohe Oberflächenrauhigkeit besitzen. Andere Möglichkeiten sind Querschnittsveränderungen der Scheibendicke oder radial umlaufende Knicke, Rillen oder Furchen in der Scheibe.A particularly good anchoring of the protuberance in the end plug is achieved if the surface of the protuberance is uneven. Instead of being flat this can be curled like a ruff or a high surface roughness have. Other options are cross-sectional changes the disc thickness or radial circumferential kinks, grooves or furrows in the disc.

Die Herstellung derartiger Lampen erfolgt, indem die Ausstülpung, die bevorzugt aus demselben Material wie das Rohr besteht, zunächst auf das Rohr aufgeschoben wird und mit diesem über den gesamten Umfang verschweißt wird. Dabei ist auf Dichtigkeit zu achten. Eine geeignete Methode ist Laser- oder Elektronenstrahlschweißen. Um die so präparierte Durchführung wird nun die Cermet-Preßform gelegt und das Cermetpulver eingefüllt. Dann wird das Cermet gepreßt, so daß ein Grünkörper entsteht, der die Durchführung bereits enthält. Die Elektrode wird bevorzugt zu diesem Zeitpunkt oder sogar noch später, nämlich erst nach dem Vorsintern, an die Durchführung angeschweißt. Ansonsten entspricht die Herstellung dem eingangs zitierten Stand der Technik.The manufacture of such lamps is done by the protuberance, which is preferred made of the same material as the pipe, first onto the pipe is pushed on and welded to it over the entire circumference becomes. Attention must be paid to tightness. A suitable method is laser or electron beam welding. To carry out the preparation so prepared now put the cermet mold and poured the cermet powder. Then the cermet is pressed so that a green body is formed, which is the implementation already contains. The electrode is preferred at this time or even later, namely only after the pre-sintering, to the implementation welded on. Otherwise, the production corresponds to that cited at the beginning State of the art.
