Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for introducing a precisely metered amount of mercury in the discharge vessel of a lamp, in particular in a straight fluorescent lamp, wherein the discharge vessel is connected to a lamp holder and acted upon by the lamp holder with a gas stream and further via a mercury introduction channel with a predetermined amount Mercury is filled. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding device.
  • Fluorescent lamps are produced on fully automatic production machines, where lamp blanks in a horizontal position undergo various processes. These include: baking out the phosphors slurried into the discharge vessel, melting an electrode at the end of the discharge vessel, evacuating the discharge vessel, filling the discharge vessel with an inert filling gas, introducing a predetermined amount of mercury and then hermetically sealing the discharge vessel at both ends of the discharge tube ,
  • the heating of the mercury strip in the finished lamp has the consequence that possibly other unwanted components, in particular H 2 are released from the metal strip, which negatively influence the ignition and burning properties of the lamp.
  • a getter material is usually additionally attached to the metal strip, which also has to be heated inductively to activate it.
  • the heating necessary to activate the getter or to release the mercury is achieved by inductive energy input, wherein a very strong alternating electromagnetic field must be applied for heating the metal strip to 900 ° to 1000 ° over a period of 10 to 30 seconds.
  • the energy consumption at a lamp throughput of 7000 / h is considerable and the energy efficiency of this method is extremely low.
  • the production of the metal strip with pressed-on mercury and getter compounds (usually in welded ring form) and the handling in the lamp manufacturing make the getter tape technology very expensive and expensive.
  • the object of the present invention is in contrast to provide a method for introducing a precisely metered amount of mercury in the discharge vessel of lamps, with which the dosage can be made much more accurate than in the prior art. Furthermore, a corresponding device should be specified.
  • This object is achieved according to a central idea of the present invention in that in a preparation step at or after the metering of the amount of mercury to be introduced, the mercury is placed in a metering volume in the form of a single contiguous drop, then in a filling step, the entire amount of mercury to be incorporated Maintaining the previously formed drop is transported into the discharge vessel and wherein a switching mechanism is provided, which bypasses the gas flow through the bypass passage during the preparation step and the bypass passage blocks during the filling step, such that the gas flow during the blocking of the bypass channel on the dosing volume is guided and entrains the drops in the discharge vessel.
  • a key consideration therefore is to bring the total gas flow for the process of introduction behind the already pre-dosed drops of mercury, to let the droplets entrained by the gas flow into the discharge vessel.
  • the dosage of the droplet could already be made spatially separated or well in advance, it is preferred if the metering takes place through or within the metering volume. However, it is ensured that exactly the predosed amount of mercury is ready for filling into the discharge vessel.
  • the drop is formed as a structure of at least approximately spherical shape.
  • the device is accordingly provided in a further preferred embodiment with a metering bore which is dimensioned so that the drop therein into a single, formed by the metering bore in the periphery to a predetermined diameter ball.
  • the metering well is designed so that the drop can only fit as a ball, which is also claimed as an independent concept of the present invention.
  • the metering bore was elongated, so that the mercury has split into a plurality of small balls. However, this division is not reproducible, the balls are small and are poorly promoted.
  • deflections with angles greater than or equal to 90 ° are advantageously avoided.
  • the drop over two deflections, each with about 45 ° can be performed.
  • a curved acceleration channel can be further provided that this opens kink-free and / or steplessly in the feed channel.
  • the drop of mercury is guided in such a way that steps or edges in the direction of introduction are avoided during transitions.
  • Corresponding transitions can be formed either completely flat or the droplets can be guided so that the diameter of guide means at the transitions widened, so that the drop of mercury in the direction of motion encounters no obstacle.
  • the metering volume can be formed as a metering bore and have a length which corresponds approximately to the diameter of a circle inscribed in the cross section of the metering bore.
  • the length of the metering well may also be sized slightly shorter than the diameter of a circle inscribed in the cross section of the metering well to ensure that the mercury flow is cut off above the metering well despite the high surface tension of the mercury the metering hole actually only makes exactly one drop.
  • the object of the present invention is also achieved by a device for introducing a precisely metered amount of mercury into the discharge vessel of lamps, in particular straight fluorescent lamps comprising at least one lamp receptacle to which the discharge vessel is connected, wherein the device continues to be characterized in that the lamp receptacle has a feed channel which communicates with the interior of the discharge vessel and a metering unit is provided which pre-meters a predetermined amount of mercury in a metering volume and transfers the metered volume in the metered volume of mercury to the feed channel for the purpose of introduction into the discharge vessel wherein the metering volume is sized to form the mercury therein into a single drop, and wherein the metering unit includes a switching mechanism to bypass a metering volume through a bypass passage if necessary, block and / or redirect the stream of gas flowing.
  • the key consideration is, if necessary, redirect the gas flow during the introduction of the drop of mercury such that the drop is entrained by the gas flow into the discharge vessel.
  • the metering volume is designed as a metering bore and dimensioned such that a drop of at least approximately spherical shape is formed.
  • the metering bore of the device according to the invention is formed with walls that are shaped or aligned with each other so that the at least approximately formed in spherical droplets touch only points or sections of the walls of the metering hole.
  • the formation of a sphere or spherical shape approximated compact structure is thus favored; At the same time, frictional forces are reduced during the subsequent release from the metering bore.
  • the metering bore may be formed as a recess having a cross-sectional shape substantially in the shape of an isosceles triangle.
  • the legs of the isosceles triangle may be arranged to extend in a straight line in a first embodiment, in an alternative embodiment, they may be based on the interior of the metering bore also convex or concave running.
  • an acceleration channel is provided between the dosing unit and the feed channel, which is aligned so that the drop is transferred by utilizing the gravitational force with an additional gravitational pulse into the feed channel.
  • the divided into a plurality of individual spheres mercury also accelerated by gravitational force hits the feed channel.
  • an additional gravitational pulse is used for the transport of the mercury within the feed channel in the direction of the discharge vessel.
  • Acceleration channel and feed channel can be arranged relative to each other so that the acceleration channel opens at an angle ⁇ 90 °, preferably ⁇ 60 °, more preferably ⁇ 50 ° in the feed channel. This will be an undisturbed Transport of mercury from the acceleration channel ensured in the feed channel.
  • the bypass channel opens into the feed channel and has one or more inlet openings facing away from the discharge vessel for charging the discharge vessel with a gas stream, in particular with inert filling gas.
  • the at least one, preferably two or more inflow openings can be closed with covers, the inflow openings being arranged off-axis relative to the feed channel.

  • the dosing unit comprises a tilting spoon unit, which is mounted coaxially to the feed channel and can be tilted between a dosing position and a release position, wherein the tilting with the rotation of the lamp holder takes place in that the center of gravity of the tipper unit by their geometric configuration and / or by an additional trim weight is well outside its axis of rotation about the feed channel.
  • a separate drive of Kipplöffelmaschine is not required; Rather, the change takes place between dosing and release position solely due to a triggered by gravity tilting movement with rotation of the lamp holders, which - as from US Pat. No. 2,699,279 respectively.
  • US 2,726,799 known per se - can be arranged equidistantly spaced in a predetermined number on a circular disk rotating in the production process.
  • the tilting spoon unit comprises a scooping arm with a spoon arranged on its end side.

  • the spoon has, on its side facing away from the scoop arm, a roof tapering radially outwards, in particular to a ridge or a point, which allows mercury to run off the radial outside of the scoop favored. This ensures that mercury, which is located on the radially outer side of the spoon, not on the tipper unit along toward the inflow opening and / or yet to be explained gas passage bore, which is aligned in the release position with the metering bore, can flow.
  • the feed channel has an upstream first portion and a downstream second portion coaxially aligned with each other and at the same time rotatably supported against each other about their common axis.

  • the bypass channel may preferably be formed. This opens at its one end in the first section of the feed channel. At the opposite end it forms one or more inflow openings for the entry of a gas flow into the bypass channel.
  • the already mentioned covers for closing the inflow opening (s) are fixed relative to the fixed metering sleeve, preferably formed integrally with the metering sleeve.
  • this has the consequence that at the same time the inflow openings can be brought into coincidence with the covers or out of overlap with the covers with pivoting of the tipper unit relative to the fixed dosing.
  • this causes that in a preparation step, the inflow openings are not covered by the covers, so that flows past in the preparation step, the gas flow through the inflow through the bypass channel at the drop. Only in the filling step, the inflow openings are blocked by the covers by rotation of the metering sleeve relative to the inner part, so that in this way the bypass channel is blocked.
  • the gas stream is then passed over the metering volume and entrains the drop in the discharge vessel.
  • the tipper unit may be provided with an already mentioned gas passage bore which, in the release position of the tipper unit, is aligned with the metering bore so that the pressure of the inflation gas present at the gas passage bore effects the transport of the drop into the feed passage.
  • the gas passage bore can have deflection means, in particular a deviation sleeve, in order to keep excess mercury running off the dosing unit away from the gas passage bore in the respective dosing operation. In this way it is avoided that mercury passing along the tipper unit passes into the gas passage bore and thus, in addition to the exactly predosed droplet, further mercury likewise passes into the feed channel.
