Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a controller which is mounted between a lamp and a lamp of a fluorescent lamp unit as a plug-in type to reduce illuminance and consumed power in a fixed manner.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Heretofore, there has been no one belonging to the present invention.

[0003]

This has the following disadvantages. (A) It is expensive because the device is controlled for each group. (B) Wiring work by a specialized contractor was required for installation. The present invention has been made to eliminate these disadvantages.

[0004]

FIGS. 1 and 2 show a circuit diagram and a mounting method of a product of the present invention in a fluorescent lamp device for two lamps. Is a transformer, whose purpose is to suppress the current flowing to the lamp. Provided a thermal fuse that senses the temperature of the circuit and opens the circuit when heated. Is a starting capacitor, and is a discharge resistor that assists in discharging.
Is a case for storing karakara. The present invention is a plug-in type fluorescent lamp light controller having the above-described configuration.

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. The current flowing through the lamp is suppressed by the turns ratio of the transformer. The starting capacitor also suppresses the current at the time of starting. The discharge resistor contributes to the discharge of the starting capacitor. In consideration of the safety of the entire apparatus, when the circuit temperature is sensed and heated, the thermal fuse is blown and the circuit is opened. Even when the circuit is released from the circuit, there is no particular difficulty in starting. The operation of each part as described above results in suppressing the lamp current and reducing the power consumed by the appliance itself. Next, a method of mounting the present apparatus will be described. Remove one of the existing fluorescent lamps and insert a copper ring into the pins of the lamp. Insert the ring into the socket and insert the lamp into its original position. This device is mounted on the instrument body, and the procedure is completed. It should be noted that the mounting can be easily performed during the normal lamp replacement operation.

[0006]

According to the present invention, the number of fluorescent lamps used is enormous, and by using this apparatus alone, an effect of reducing power consumption can be expected. By changing the winding ratio of the transformer, the amount of reduction can be selected widely. Cumulative thinking leads to huge energy savings. It is a well-known fact that the facilities to which the system is applied are almost infinite.
