Definitions
- the invention described in this application is concerned with discharge lamps, specifically those in which dielectrically disabled discharges burn during operation.
- discharge lamps which are often referred to as silent discharge lamps
- discharges are generated with a set of electrodes in a discharge medium.
- the dielectric hindrance arises from a dielectric layer between at least part of the electrode set and the discharge medium, this part consisting at least of the anodes when the task distribution of the electrodes is defined.
- the details of silent discharge lamps do not have to be set out here because they belong to the prior art.
- the silent discharge lamps have received increasing attention because a special pulsed mode of operation (WO 94/23442) enables relatively high UV efficiencies to be achieved, which, when using suitable luminescent materials, enable economical generation of visible light.
- the invention relates both to UV lamps and to lamps with visible radiation.
- Flat discharge lamps are particularly interesting. pen that can be used, for example, for backlighting displays, monitors and similar devices.
- Such flat discharge lamps generally have a plate-like structure, ie they have a base plate and a cover plate, which define a discharge space for the discharge medium between them. At least one of the plates must be designed for light emission, with the ceiling plate being considered at least partially translucent here.
- the ceiling panel can carry a fluorescent material that is itself not actually transparent.
- the invention is based on the technical problem of specifying a silent discharge lamp of the type described at the outset with an improved mechanical construction.
- the invention provides: a discharge lamp with a base plate, a cover plate for the light exit, which is at least partially translucent, a discharge space between the base plate and the cover plate for receiving a discharge medium, an electrode set for generating dielectrically handicapped, individual localized discharges in the discharge medium, a dielectric layer between at least a part of the electrode set and the discharge medium and a multiplicity of supporting elements which connect the base plate and the cover plate, characterized in that that the individual discharge areas, apart from those at the edges of the discharge space, are each surrounded by essentially identical patterns of support elements.
- the invention relates to a display device with such a discharge lamp, for example on a flat screen, a display or a similar device in LCD technology.
- the essential idea of the invention is not to use the support elements as few as possible as in the prior art, but on the contrary to distribute a relatively large number of support elements over the surface of the flat discharge lamp.
- the inventors have verified that with correspondingly frequent support, comparatively thin floor and ceiling panels can be used, so that considerable weight savings can be achieved for the overall lamp.
- the total weight of the lamp is of considerable importance for many applications.
- the assembly process and the automatic assembly devices that may be required for lighter panels can be significantly simplified and made cheaper. Lighter plates are also associated with reduced thermal capacities, so that thermal cycles can be run through faster, which further simplifies production.
- improved stability can of course also be achieved with a larger number of support elements.
- the support elements which may themselves be in several parts, but are preferably in one part, should be assigned to individual local based discharges can be arranged in the discharge space.
- the individual localized discharge structures have also been set using the pulsed operating method already mentioned without this invention and can be firmly localized by creating preferred locations on the electrodes.
- the invention is not restricted to lamps with such preferred locations. Rather, it is shown that the invention provides preferred places for individual discharges between the support elements, so that, for example, conventional structures, for example nose-like projections on the cathodes, can also be less pronounced.
- the invention also relates to them.
- this application refers to individual discharges or discharge structures, these statements strictly relate to areas specified by the design of the lamp, in particular the electrodes and the support projections, in which such individual discharge structures can burn. Depending on the operating state of the lamp, discharge structures of different dimensions within these areas are also conceivable. The areas therefore do not necessarily have to be completely filled by a discharge structure. Above all, in connection with the dimming functions of the lamp, it may be desirable to influence the size of the discharge structures. The statements in this application therefore relate to the areas that can be filled by discharge structures at most. If electrode structures are provided for determining preferred positions of the discharges, there will generally be a 1: 1 correspondence with the discharge areas.
- the assignment between support projections and individual discharge areas should be present in the invention at least to the extent that the individual NEN discharge areas are each surrounded by the same pattern of neighboring protrusions. Discharge areas in the edge area of the discharge lamp, ie in the vicinity of the frame or lateral termination of the discharge vessel, are of course excluded.
- the aim here is to design the pattern of the support projections next to one another around the discharge area together with this discharge area in such a way that the luminance is homogenized as far as possible. Then the comparatively large number of support projections does not play a disadvantageous role in the homogeneity (see above explanations for the overall design of the discharge lamp).
- individual support projections can be adjacent to more than one discharge area, this will even be the rule. It is also preferred that the support projections on your part are surrounded by the same pattern of the next adjacent discharge areas, if possible.
- the assignment between support elements and individual discharge areas should also be present in the invention preferably in so far that a plane and a direction can be found through the discharge space between the base plate and the ceiling plate, along which the support elements and the discharge areas alternate.
- the alternating row does not have to be an immediately alternating row (according to the ababab .... pattern).
- Also included is a series in which two support elements or two discharge areas occur regularly, as long as each support element and each discharge area has at least one discharge area or at least one support element as a neighbor (e.g. abbabbabb ... or aabbaabb .).
- the straight line along which the alternating row results connects the centers of the next adjacent or at most next but not least adjacent discharge areas or the centers of the next or next but one adjacent support elements.
- Another idea of the invention is to no longer understand the support elements, as in the prior art, as optical faults in an overall discharge structure which is otherwise as homogeneous as possible. Rather, according to the invention, the relatively large number of the support elements are to be regarded as an integral part of the structure responsible for the final luminance distribution. As a result, the overall structure of the individual discharge areas is optimized together with the support elements and the optical changes caused by them. In principle, regular shadowing by support elements, as long as they are surrounded by a sufficient number of discharge areas, can be compensated for as well by diffusers or other homogenizing measures as was conventionally the case for the few support elements used.
- the support elements themselves can also be used for homogenization, for which purpose they preferably consist of optically transparent material.
- the support plans can Jumps can also be provided with a fluorescent coating, but they can also be completely or partially free of fluorescent (compared to the rest of the ceiling panel), for example wiped clean afterwards. As a result, they can also be brightened because the inevitable extinction of the phosphor layer is eliminated.
- the invention provides that the support elements and the individual discharges, apart from edge effects of the lamp, each have an essentially identical environment, that is to say, for example, all support points are surrounded by the same pattern of adjacent discharge areas and vice versa.
- the discharge areas on each side of a specific electrode strip are separated by supporting elements, e.g. alternate with support elements, i.e. support elements are provided between the discharges.
- supporting elements e.g. alternate with support elements, i.e. support elements are provided between the discharges.
- a particularly simple example is a checkerboard-like overall arrangement of support elements and discharge structures. The exemplary embodiments illustrate this, but also show a counterexample.
- the support elements are designed as support projections in the sense of an integral part of the ceiling plate, the outer contour tapering towards the floor plate in at least one sectional plane perpendicular to the floor plate.
- the support projections of the ceiling panel according to the invention can already be provided as a molded element of the ceiling panel during the manufacture of the ceiling panel, for example during deep drawing, pressing or another suitable shaping process. In principle, they can also be molded on later, but they should be formed in one piece with the ceiling plate during the actual lamp assembly, so that the previous considerable effort for positioning and fixing separate support elements between the plates can be dispensed with.
- the assembly effort would otherwise be considerable.
- a connecting element for example made of glass solder, between the base plate and the support projections.
- Integral production with the ceiling tile is of course the cheapest.
- An advantage of this one-piece design with the ceiling plate in contrast to a one-piece design with the base plate, is that the contact between a support projection and a plate inevitably results in certain shadows in the luminance distribution which can impair the homogeneity and must be compensated for. According to the inventors' knowledge, this compensation is easier the further away the contacts causing the shadows are from the light emission side of the ceiling plate. This applies in particular when using diffusers or other homogenizing elements on the top or above the ceiling plate. The greater the distance from such homogenizing elements, the better the possibilities of the optical resolution of the shadows.
- the previously mentioned tapering contour of the support projections should occur in at least one cross-sectional plane, the cross-sectional plane running perpendicular to the base plate.
- the vertical orientation must be defined locally if the base plate is not flat.
- the support protrusion is narrower in the direction along the plates just above the base plate than further away from the base plate. This taper preferably affects the entire height of the support projection.
- not all of the existing support projections need to be explained here. be shaped.
- these preferably consist of optically transparent material. However, they can be coated entirely or partially with a phosphor, as is the case with remaining ceiling tile is the case.
- the support projections and the rest of the ceiling plate are preferably made of glass.
- the shape of the support projections is preferably designed such that not only does a cross-sectional plane with a tapering cross-section result, but rather there is also no cross-sectional plane in which the support projection widens too much in the direction of the base plate.
- the outer surface extends from the floor slab to the ceiling slab, so we are not talking about a small part of the outer surface.
- the outer surface of the support projection is to form an angle of preferably at least 120 °, better at least 130 ° and in the best case 140 ° or above, to a plane intersecting the support projection and running at least locally parallel to the base plate between the cover plate and the base plate, this angle in a cutting plane perpendicular to the plane mentioned and towards the base plate.
- the angle therefore relates to an outer surface of the support projection which is tilted towards the base plate.
- the support projections according to the invention are delimited by the inclined outer surfaces described, they provide by refraction of light or incident from the discharge space by appropriate alignment of the radiation characteristic of a phosphor layer from the outer surface for an alignment of light into the core area of the support projections. This can counteract the shadow created by contact with the floor slab.
- an overall design of the support projection arrangement and the discharge structure can be optimized for a luminance that is as homogeneous as possible.
- the individual discharge structures typically do not burn under, but between support projections. This means that the maxima of UV generation are also between the support projections. Due to the optical deflection effect, the light can be brought in part from these areas into the areas of the support projections, so that a relatively homogeneous luminance results on the top of the ceiling panel.
- the support projections should taper in the direction of the base plate. It is optimal if the support protrusions are as narrow as possible in the area of contact with the base plate, the term “narrow” being measured in relation to the other dimensions of the support protrusion. “Narrow” is a small fraction, for example less as a 1/3, 1/4 or 1/5 of a typical transverse dimension (along the plates) of the supporting projection, for example halfway up the discharge space. This narrowness should be present in at least one direction, but preferably in two directions in the “local” plane of the base plate. In other words, it can be act as a linearly narrow or approximately point-like contact surface.
- the support projections can run essentially in a rib-like manner along the ceiling slab or can be limited to small areas in relation to the dimensions of the slabs. In the former case, one has to deal with narrow contact surfaces in general with the linear contact surfaces, in the second case with the approximately punctiform ones.
- the rib-like support projections can have certain stabilizing functions, for example providing the ceiling panel with improved bending stiffness in one direction. Furthermore, as explained in more detail in the exemplary embodiments, they can also serve to somewhat separate certain areas in the discharge space from one another in order to influence the discharge distribution. Together with the electrode structure, you can therefore define preferred locations for individual discharges and separate individual discharges along the same electrodes.
- the support projections which are locally delimited in two directions of the plate plane offer the possibility of minimized shadow effects and are usually sufficient for the support function.
- a preferred shape for locally limited support projections can thus be formed by a cone or by a pyramid in which the tip touches the base plate (and may be somewhat flattened or rounded).
- any basic shapes for the cones and pyramids come into question, that is to say any curved surfaces, polygon surfaces or mixtures thereof.
- largely edge-free support projections, ie cones are preferred because certain irregularities in the light distribution can develop through the edges.
- the aim should be to keep the contact area between the support projections and the base plate as small as possible.
- discharge lamps are preferred which are designed for bipolar operation, in which the electrodes therefore alternately function as anodes and as cathodes.
- Bipolar operation overlaps the generally asymmetrical discharge structures to a distribution that is symmetrical over time, which is why the optical homogenization can be further improved.
- Figure 1 is a schematic plan view of an arrangement of individual discharges and support projections according to the invention.
- Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the arrangement of Fig. 1 along the line A-A in Fig. 1;
- FIG. 3 shows a plan view of an electrode set of a discharge lamp according to the invention with symbolized contact points of the support projections with the base plate, in accordance with the arrangement from FIGS. 1 and 2; 4 shows a representation corresponding to FIG. 1 of a second exemplary embodiment;
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic top view of a checkerboard-like arrangement of support projections and individual discharge areas.
- the circles denoted by 1 correspond to the circular attachment of a support projection on the ceiling plate 3 lying at the top in the cross-sectional view (A-A) in FIG. 2, which is shown as an edge in FIG. 2. With 2 they are down, i.e. to the base plate 4 pointing tips of the conical support projections, which thus form the center of the circle in Fig. 1.
- the ceiling plate 3 is a deep-drawn glass plate.
- the top of the ceiling plate 3 is therefore shaped in the contour largely like the bottom of the ceiling plate 3.
- the top of the ceiling plate 3 could also be flat (or have different shapes).
- the criteria of favorable manufacturability must be observed.
- Fig. 2 shows that the deep-drawn conical support projections have relatively flat side surfaces.
- the vertical dimension is exaggerated in Fig. 2, so that the support projections are actually even flatter than shown.
- the angle between these side surfaces and the base plate is small, ie it is below 60 °, and preferably even below 50 ° or below 40 °.
- 5 denotes electrode strips in which there is no difference between anodes and cathodes, which are therefore all separated by a dielectric layer from the discharge space formed between the top plate 3 and the bottom plate 4.
- the discharge space is designated 6 in FIG. 2.
- the electrode strips 5 have jagged or wave-like shapes composed of straight sections. Short sections of the electrode strips 5 between the next adjacent support projections are inclined relative to the main strip direction and ensure a separation of the discharge areas, which are designated by 7 in FIGS. 1 and 2. If these sections were omitted, the discharge regions 7 would just touch. Between these inclined sections of the route, the electrode strips in the area of the discharge regions 7 themselves form sawtooth shapes which are weakly pronounced, the tip of the sawtooth in each case being in the center. These electrode shapes are important for the localization of individual discharges in the region of the shortest discharge distances, ie between corresponding protruding tips of the electrode strips 5. In this exemplary embodiment, an individual discharge which is variable in its extent and which may also be divided into several discharge structures will burn in each discharge region 7.
- the exemplary embodiment clarifies that both the support projections 1, 2 on the one hand and the discharge structures 7 on the other hand are each surrounded by the same neighboring arrangements (the individual discharges 7 or the support projections 1, 2). The only exceptions are positions arranged at the edge of the discharge lamps.
- section line AA drawn in FIG. 1 runs alternately through support projections 1, 2 and discharge structures 7.
- the rectangular checkerboard pattern like arrangement here results in a simple arrangement with a plurality of adjacent directions of these alternating rows, namely in the section drawn in Fig. 1 from a larger lamp structure four horizontal rows and seven vertical rows.
- the individual discharge structures 7 in other electrode shapes could also extend into the area under the support projections 1, 2 of the ceiling plate 3. This also applies to a section (not shown here) along a vertical line in FIG. 1 running through the support projection tips 2.
- the individual discharge structures 7 are represented by approximate squares. In fact, the shape of the individual discharges 7 can also be different.
- the electrode strips 5 shown here also have a profile which, in addition to the local definition of the individual discharge structures, also has good properties with regard to the dimmability of the discharges, for which purpose reference is made to the two applications D 198 44 720 and DE 198 45 228.
- the dimming function is accompanied by a change in the surface area of the individual discharge structures 7, so that they can also be smaller than shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the support projections 1, 2 separate the discharge structures 7, which are arranged between the same electrode strips 5, from one another. Because of the separating function of the support projections 1, 2, the jagged shape of the electrode strips 5 in this exemplary embodiment is also only comparatively slight, in relation to the discharge distance, that is to say the distance between the electrode strips 5.
- FIG. 3 shows a plan view corresponding to FIG. 1 of the base plate 4 with the set of electrodes 5.
- a complete discharge lamp is shown here, with 21 vertical lines in FIG. 3 and 15 horizontal lines in FIG. 3, each with alternating rows of support projections 1, 2 and discharge tion structures 7 are provided.
- the level of the base plate 4 is shown, therefore the support projections show only with their tips 2 in an approximate point shape.
- the discharge structures 7 are not shown for the sake of clarity, but are seated in the operation of the discharge lamp as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- FIG. 3 further shows that the electrode strips 5 are alternately fed to a collective connection 10 on the right in FIG. 3 and a collective connection 11 on the left in FIG. 3, in order to be connected together to an electronic ballast.
- FIG. 3 shows a frame-like structure 8 in the outer region of the base plate 4.
- the “frame” 8 is also a projection of the ceiling plate 3, but not as a conical shape, but as a rib.
- the contact surface of the frame rib 8 also has the base plate 4 has a certain width, because a gas-tight connection of the cover plate 3 and the base plate 4, for example by means of a glass solder, must be provided there.
- shadow effects do not interfere in this area, since it is the edge anyway which the luminance is already decreasing.
- FIG. 3 shows the border of the frame.
- the frame is bent outside the rib 8.
- the electrode connections (with bus structure) 10 and 11 shown here outside could also be accommodated under the bend in a protected manner.
- the thickness of the glass solder used for fastening compared to the only adjacent support projections must be taken into account when dimensioning the frame rib 8.
- the phosphor coating is on the side of the ceiling plate 3 facing the discharge space 6, that is 2 on the underside of the ceiling plate 3, and completely covers the ceiling plate 3 within the limit shown in FIG. 3.
- the lateral surfaces of the support projections 1, 2 are therefore also covered with phosphor.
- Fig. 4 shows a variant of Fig. 1 as a second embodiment.
- Virerden used the same reference numbers for corresponding parts.
- the difference from the first exemplary embodiment from FIGS. 1-3 is that the supporting projections have a rib-like character, that is to say they lie along a line. For this reason, they are designated by 12 in this exemplary embodiment.
- the auxiliary lines 13 clarify that the line-shaped support of the support projections 12 on the base plate 4 in this exemplary embodiment lies essentially above the electrode strips 5.
- the zigzag shape of the electrode strips 5 is used to let the electrode strip protrude alternately to the two sides under the respective support projection 12. Therefore, discharges 7 can burn between adjacent electrode strips, specifically in the area of the electrode strips 5 that is not covered by the support projections.
- adjacent discharge structures 7 extending from a specific electrode strip 5 to a specific side are each separated by supporting projections.
- This feature relates to the fact that the discharge structures cannot converge to form a single discharge structure. In the present case, this is ensured by the fact that the supporting projections 12 cover the electrode strips 5 between such adjacent individual discharges 7 (twice).
- the convergence of adjacent individual discharge structures 7 in the previous exemplary embodiment was achieved by the spatial arrangement of the support projections 1, 2 between the discharge structures themselves, that is to say between their centers of gravity. Otherwise, this exemplary embodiment differs from the previous one in that the support projections in the cross-sectional profile shown on the left in FIG. 4 are wave-like and come into contact with the base plate 4 in a somewhat rounded manner.
- This rounded shape of the contact makes it easier to perceive the function of the separation between the discharge areas along the same electrode strip 5. Otherwise, the vertical dimension (in the direction of a perpendicular on the base plate 4) is also exaggerated in this cross-sectional illustration.
- the structures are actually flatter. However, the minimum angle of 120 ° already mentioned several times in this exemplary embodiment does not exist over the entire height of the support projections. The middle area of the support projections is actually somewhat steeper. However, the upper area and the lower area are in the preferred angular range.
- FIG. 5 Another embodiment is shown in FIG. 5.
- the lines drawn through with a stronger line represent electrode strips, which in turn are designated by 5.
- the electrode strips 5 do not have a slightly serrated, but otherwise straight, shape, as in the first two exemplary embodiments. Rather, after a “sawtooth period” of the electrode strips 5, intermediate sections running obliquely backward are provided. These intermediate sections lie parallel and under rib-like support projections 12, which otherwise correspond to those of the second exemplary embodiment from FIG. 4.
- the courses are again indicated with auxiliary lines 13 and in 5 is shown in a cross-sectional profile along the line CC in this case, too.
- the special shape of the electrode strips 5 results in a field of individual discharges 7 which is very dense compared to the checkerboard arrangements of the first and second exemplary embodiments.
- the individual discharge 7 shown is cut at an oblique angle. In comparison to the sectional representations of the discharges in FIGS. 2 and 4, it is therefore not lifted to the same extent from the base. (As a rule, the invention is not about surface discharges, but rather discharges burning in the volume of the discharge space, which form arcs to a certain extent.) In fact, however, the discharge 7 is also somewhat spaced from the base plate 4 in its central region, which is no longer shown in the drawing is.
- All three exemplary embodiments have in common that the extremely dense arrangement of support projections in comparison with conventional discharge lamps results in a large plate stability. So that both the ceiling plate 3 and the base plate 4 are designed to be relatively thin-walled. For the rest, it is provided in the exemplary embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 3, not to use a separate frame between base plate 4 and ceiling plate 3.
- the one-piece design of the supporting projections with the ceiling plate 3 results in a drastically reduced assembly effort and significantly shorter process times.
- the support projections shown in the exemplary embodiments each have essential shapes for the invention. In all of the exemplary embodiments, they extend in a tapering manner from the ceiling plate 3 to the base plate 4, the tapering taking place transversely to the rib direction in the case of the rib-like support projections from the second and the third embodiment, in the case of the conical support projections 1, 2 from the first embodiment in FIG each cross-sectional plane perpendicular to the plates.
- angles of 40 ° occur between the base plate 4 and the lateral surfaces of the support projections, the overall surface of the support projections remaining facing the base plate 4. This implies an angle of 140 ° between the lateral surface and the plane parallel to the base plate already explained above through the discharge space, this angle of 140 ° being defined facing the base plate.
- the ceiling plate 3 including the supporting projections 1, 2 or 12 is coated with phosphor, this leads to the radiation characteristics of the visible radiation being inclined in such a way that a brightening of the contact area derplatte 4 conditional shadow results. So light from the surroundings is directed into the center of the support projection.
- This can also be supported by optically effective structures on the top or above Ceiling plate 3 may be provided. These optically effective structures can be integrated in the ceiling plate 3 or can be provided as a separate element.
- the support projections are each surrounded by an arrangement of discharge structures 7 that is as uniform as possible. In the first exemplary embodiment, this is the case in that each support projection 1, 2 receives light contributions from four discharge structures 7 distributed uniformly around it and the support projections 1, 2, apart from the edge of the discharge lamp, do not differ in this.
- the support projection ribs 12 are supplied with light contributions due to discharge structures 7 on both sides, additional homogenization being provided by the alternating arrangement.
- the third exemplary embodiment in FIG. 5 is still improved insofar as, in addition to the alternating arrangement, the discharge structures are closer together and thus smaller discharge-free regions result.
