The inventor conducted a detailed investigation into the quality of the parts, manufacturing process, quality after completion, and lighting condition of this halogen light bulb, and found that there were no abnormalities in any of the parts, manufacturing process, or quality after completion. Nevertheless, we discovered that when the filament was turned on, there were abnormally bright spots (referred to as hot spots) on the filament surface. A follow-up study of bulbs with hot spots revealed that most of them had short lifespans. So, when we disassembled and investigated this short-life light bulb, we found that its assembly accuracy was extremely good.Conversely, we assumed that the hot spots could be solved by making the assembly accuracy rougher, so we conducted various experiments and found that the filament position was rougher. By doing so, hot spots were eliminated and a long-life bulb was obtained.

As shown in FIG. 2, the feature of the present invention is that the filament 6 is located eccentrically within the valve 1 along its axial direction. Therefore, the outer diameter of the coil of the filament 6 is 2r, and the distance between the axis 60 of the coil of the filament 6 and the axis 10 of the valve 1, that is, the amount of eccentricity is d.
Then, d>0 and has a predetermined relationship with r.

Next, I will explain the function of this light bulb, and also explain d>
The reason for setting it to 0 will be explained. When this light bulb is lit, the filament 6 emits a large amount of infrared rays along with visible light. Then, the visible light passes through the infrared reflective film 2 and is radiated to the outside, and the infrared light is reflected by the infrared reflective film 2 and returns to the filament 6, where it is heated and further generates a large amount of visible light and infrared light. This increases the luminous efficiency of the bulb.

However, the reason why the life is significantly shortened when d=0 is not well understood, but it is probably as follows. That is, the filament 6 inevitably has some non-uniformity in its size and shape, and therefore the brightness of the filament 6 is somewhat non-uniform. Therefore, since the diameter 2r of the filament 6 is smaller than the diameter of the valve 1, the filament 6
When the bulb 1, that is, the infrared reflecting film 2, are perfectly concentric circles, the infrared rays emitted from the high brightness point return to the high brightness point and heat it, causing it to emit an even larger amount of infrared rays. Therefore, the temperature of the high brightness point increases in a chain reaction, becoming significantly hotter than other parts, forming a hot spot. Although tungsten evaporates at this hot spot significantly more than at other locations, the amount of tungsten deposited is not greater than at other locations.
It is believed that for this reason, the filament 6 becomes thinner at the hot spot and has a shorter lifespan.

On the other hand, when d>0, the infrared reflective film 2
Since the image of the hot spot becomes blurred, the proportion of infrared rays emitted from the bright spot that returns to the bright spot decreases, and as a result, the temperature of the hot spot does not become very high, so the amount of evaporation of tungsten does not increase as much. It is thought that this will lead to a longer lifespan.

Therefore, the appropriate value for the amount of eccentricity d is related to the coil diameter 2r of the filament, and if 2r is large, d must also be large. Therefore, it is considered appropriate to express d as a multiple of r.

Next, the relationship between the amount of eccentricity d and the efficiency improvement and life of the light bulb was investigated through experiments. The light bulb used has the structure shown in Figure 1, and the rating is 100V, 100W, 1600
m, the outer diameter of valve 1 is 11 mm, and filament 6
is a tungsten double coil, and the coil outer diameter is
The 2r used was 1.6 mm, the coil length was 10 mm, and the number of turns was 11. The results are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. In both figures, the horizontal axis shows the amount of eccentricity d as a multiple of the coil radius r, the vertical axis in Figure 3 shows the efficiency improvement of the light bulb in %, and the vertical axis in Figure 4 shows the life in units of time. All curves show a correlation. From FIG. 3, it can be seen that the efficiency improvement is maximum when d=0, gradually decreases up to d=2r, and then sharply decreases. On the other hand, from Figure 4, when d = 0, the life is less than half of the rating, and as d increases, the life increases rapidly, and in the range from d = 0.2r to d = 2r. It can be seen that the rating is almost satisfied, and as d becomes larger, the life becomes significantly longer. from this result,
It can be seen that d is preferably in the range of 0.2r to 2r.

The same was true for halogen bulbs with other ratings. Furthermore, the present invention can also be applied to a halogen light bulb in which a plurality of filaments are arranged in a line via a short-circuit wire in a long tube-shaped bulb, such as a halogen light bulb for copying machines, to obtain similar effects. If the infrared reflecting film is provided on at least one of the inner and outer surfaces of the bulb, the above-mentioned effects can be obtained. Further, the filament may be a single coil or a double coil.
