Abstract

674,148. Supply systems for space discharge lamps; transformers. EKCO-ENSIGN ELECTRIC, Ltd., and STICKLEY, W. A. May 30, 1950 [May 28, 1949], No. 14323/49. Classes 38 (ii) and 38 (iv). The ballast for an electric discharge lamp a comprises an autotransformer having an open circuit output voltage approximately equal to the supply voltage and two series connected and closely coupled primary windings W1, W2 with a loosely coupled secondary winding W3 connected between a lamp electrode and the junction between the two primary windings so that when the lamp is in operation ballasting is effected by the loosely coupled and series connected windings W1 and W3. In the case when the usual starting switch in shunt with the discharge path, Fig. 4 (not shown), is dispensed with a further loosely coupled secondary winding W4 may be extended from the secondary primary winding W2, each secondary being provided with a tapping to provide heating current to the lamp electrodes. The transformer, Fig. 6 (not shown), preferably has a shell type core, with the two primary windings concentrically arranged at one end of the centre limb and the secondary windings similarly arranged at the other end. A single tapped primary winding may be used.
