(Prior art) Figure 5 shows a nonlinear capacitor (hereinafter referred to as FEC) having hysteresis voltage-charge characteristics.
This is an example of a high-pressure metal vapor discharge lamp equipped with a starter consisting of: In the figure, 1 is a pair of main electrodes 2
a, 2b and an auxiliary starting electrode 3 provided close to one of the main electrodes, and a light emitting tube in which a metal halide such as added sodium or scandium is sealed together with mercury and a rare gas. It is. An FEC 5 is connected in parallel to the arc tube 1 via a thermally responsive switch 4 having normal-temperature closed contacts. Further, the starting auxiliary electrode 3 of the arc tube 1 is electrically connected to the main electrode 2a adjacent thereto via a resistor 6 and the thermally responsive switch 4.

The discharge lamp starts and lights up because it is applied to the electrode. After the discharge lamp starts, the thermally responsive switch 4 opens due to the radiant heat from the arc tube 1, disconnecting the FEC 5 from the power source and electrically disconnecting the starting auxiliary electrode 3 from the main electrode 2a.

However, in the above-mentioned discharge lamp, when the discharge lamp starts and the thermally responsive switch 4 opens, the power supply 9
- Through a circuit consisting of - main electrode 2a - arc discharge - starting auxiliary electrode 3 - resistor 6 - FEC 5 - power supply 9
A voltage is applied to FEC5. On the other hand, the FEC 5 built into the outer bulb of the discharge lamp is exposed to extremely high temperatures while the discharge lamp is lit. for example
When FEC is installed near the base attachment part of the outer sphere,
The temperature reaches approximately 300°C, which is much higher than the transformation point (Curie point) of the ferroelectric material that makes up FEC. When FEC is placed in such high temperatures,
The material changes from a ferroelectric material to a paraelectric material, and the dielectric constant and capacitance decrease. Since the impedance increases accordingly, a voltage with a high waveform as shown in FIG. 7 is applied between the terminals of the FEC 5. In this way, when a high voltage is continuously applied to the FEC 5 at high temperatures, the silver in the silver film electrode provided on the surface of the ferroelectric crystal constituting the FEC diffuses into the ferroelectric material along the grain boundaries. (referred to as migration), and as a result, the hysteresis characteristics of the FEC are impaired and the high voltage pulse generation function is degraded. Furthermore, since silver diffuses into the ferroelectric material, the insulation resistance of the FEC also decreases, making dielectric breakdown more likely to occur.

However, in such a structure, when a discharge lamp that has been lit is turned off and then restarted within a short period of time, the thermally responsive switch 4 on the side of the starting auxiliary electrode 3
Before b returns to the closed state after the discharge lamp goes out,
If the thermally responsive switch 4a on the FEC 5 side returns to the closed state first, a high voltage pulse is generated but the discharge lamp does not start, which not only damages the discharge lamp lighting circuit but is also dangerous. Therefore, in such a structure, the contact pressure must be adjusted so that the switching contact of the thermally responsive switch 4b on the side of the starting auxiliary electrode 3 returns earlier than the switching contact of the thermally responsive switch 4a on the FEC 5 side. This was an inconvenience.

(Function) In the present invention, since two thermally responsive switches are connected in series to the FEC as described above, any one of the thermally responsive switches opens after the discharge lamp is started. , the FEC circuit is disconnected from the power supply, so the generation of high voltage pulses stops. Also, one of the thermally responsive switches opens the circuit that electrically connects the starting auxiliary electrode to the main electrode that is not adjacent to it, and the other one opens the circuit that electrically connects the starting auxiliary electrode to the main electrode that is not adjacent to it, and the other
Since the circuit that applies voltage to the FEC is opened, it is possible to prevent the FEC's high voltage pulse generation function from deteriorating and insulation resistance from decreasing. Furthermore, when restarting a discharge lamp, no matter which of the two thermally responsive switches closes first, no voltage will be applied to the FEC unless the other one closes, so high voltage pulses will not occur. do not have.
