2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in the advertising industry and the like, it has been practiced to display characters or pictures for advertising on the surface of a fluorescent lamp as an advertising medium, and the fluorescent lamp is a glass by discharge. A fluorescent lamp for general lighting, in which the tube emits white light, is used,
A thermosetting color ink or the like is used as the ink for displaying characters or pictures for advertisement on the surface of the fluorescent lamp.

[0003]

However, in such a conventional fluorescent lamp, as described above, the characters for advertisement are displayed on the surface of the fluorescent lamp for general lighting with thermosetting color ink or the like. Since it is configured to do so, the characters etc. do not develop color by themselves, they only appear bright in a state in which white due to the emission of the fluorescent lamp is mixed, and the part other than the characters etc., that is, the background Since it also develops white, the characters and patterns are blended into the background and assimilated, that is, the characters and the like are difficult to recognize and cannot give a strong impact, and the effect of the advertisement is extremely low.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a fluorescent lamp in which characters and the like can be easily recognized and can have a strong impact, and which is highly effective in advertising. Especially.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the invention according to claim 1 directly applies the phosphor-coloring ink which is colored by the above-mentioned ultraviolet rays onto the surface of the ultraviolet-ray emitting lamp which emits ultraviolet rays. It is characterized by having done.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided an ultraviolet ray emitting lamp which emits ultraviolet rays, and a film which is attached to the surface of the ultraviolet ray emitting lamp and is transparent to the ultraviolet ray.
It is characterized in that it comprises a phosphor coloring ink which is applied to the surface of the film and which is colored by the ultraviolet rays.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the letters and patterns for advertisement displayed by the fluorescent coloring ink are directly irradiated with the ultraviolet rays emitted from the ultraviolet ray radiating lamp, whereby the letters etc. are fluorescently colored. In addition, since the portion other than the characters and the like becomes a background that does not develop color, the colored characters and the like do not blend into the background and are not assimilated, and can be clearly recognized from the background to be easily recognized and have a strong impact.

[0008]

Embodiments of the fluorescent lamp according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In this fluorescent lamp, as shown in FIG. 1, the phosphor coloring ink 2 is directly applied to the surface of the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 to display characters 3 for advertisement and pictures 4 and the like. Is formed of a glass tube 1a and a phosphor 1b applied to the inner peripheral surface thereof, and the phosphor 1b is made of a substance that emits ultraviolet rays.

That is, the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 is constructed so as to radiate ultraviolet rays from the phosphor 1b through the glass tube 1a, and the ultraviolet rays thus radiated are directly applied to the characters 3 and the patterns 4 and the like. ing.

Further, the phosphor coloring ink 2 does not develop a color under the light of sunlight or a fluorescent lamp for general illumination which does not emit ultraviolet rays, and exhibits a white color. It is configured to emit a fluorescent color by the emitted ultraviolet rays.

[0012] Further, the letters 3 and the designs 4 for the above-mentioned advertisement.
Any means may be used as a means for displaying, for example, not only by handwriting, but also by a curved surface printing machine or the like.

As the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1,
Glass used in so-called black light blue fluorescent lamps or general fluorescent lamps that effectively emit only near-ultraviolet rays (300 to 400 nm) using a special glass tube that does not transmit light in the visible region. It is possible to use a so-called black light fluorescent lamp that emits ultraviolet rays in the same region as the black light blue fluorescent lamp while using a glass tube made of the same material as the tube.

Further, as the above-mentioned phosphor coloring ink 2,
For example, UV short wave (254 nm) or UV long wave (365n)
It is possible to use the one that develops a fluorescent color in m), and it is also possible to apply the one that develops an ultraviolet ray having a wavelength other than that.

Next, the method of use and the operation of the fluorescent lamp constructed as described above will be described with reference to FIG.

According to this fluorescent lamp, the ultraviolet radiating lamp 1 is connected to the power supply connector 5 of the fluorescent lamp for general lighting installed at the store, inside the store, or at the station.

When electric power is supplied from the connector 5 to the ultraviolet radiating lamp 1 in the state of being connected as described above, the ultraviolet radiating lamp 1 emits ultraviolet light, and the ultraviolet light thus radiated also has the letters 3 and 3. The pattern 4 or the like is directly irradiated, and the character 3 or the like itself emits a fluorescent color.

At this time, since the portion A other than the characters 3 and the like becomes a background that does not develop color, the colored characters 3 and the like clearly stand out from the background without blending into the background and being assimilated.

By the way, as described above, a black light fluorescent tube, a black light blue fluorescent lamp or the like can be applied as the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1.
In particular, while the surface of the black light fluorescent lamp exhibits a bright color such as white when turned off and when turned on, the surface of the black light blue fluorescent lamp exhibits a dark color such as dark blue when turned on as well as when turned off, When the black light blue fluorescent lamp is applied as the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1, when the characters 3 and the design 4 etc. are colored, the portion A other than the characters, that is, the background is a dark color such as dark blue, and the black light fluorescent lamp. Since the contrast between the characters and the like is higher than that in the case of using, the characters and the like stand out more clearly from the background without being blended into and assimilated into the background.

Therefore, according to the above-mentioned embodiment, since the phosphor coloring ink is directly applied on the surface of the ultraviolet radiation lamp to display the characters and pictures for the advertisement, the ultraviolet radiation lamp is radiated. Ultraviolet rays are directly irradiated on letters, etc., which causes the letters themselves to develop a fluorescent color, and the part other than the letters etc. becomes a background that does not develop color, so the colored letters etc. do not blend into the background and become assimilated. It clearly stands out from the surface, is easy to recognize, and has a strong impact.

FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the fluorescent lamp according to the present invention, in which the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 is constructed to radiate ultraviolet rays, and the fluorescent coloring ink 2 is used for the above ultraviolet radiation. It is similar to the above-described embodiment that it is configured to develop color by the ultraviolet rays from the lamp 1, and therefore detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In the fluorescent lamp shown in the figure, a film 6 is attached to the surface of an ultraviolet radiation lamp 1, and a fluorescent coloring ink 2 is applied to the surface of the film 6 to form letters 3 for advertisements and advertisements. The picture 4 and the like are displayed.

That is, the characters 3 for advertisement and the picture 4 etc. displayed by the phosphor coloring ink 2 are arranged on the surface of the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 through the film 6, and the ultraviolet radiation from the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 is Character 3 through film 6
It is configured to irradiate the pattern 4 and the like.

As the film 6, the ultraviolet ray from the ultraviolet ray radiating lamp 1 can be transmitted, and the film 6 is easily attached to the surface of the ultraviolet ray radiating lamp 1, and is suitable for screen printing using the phosphor coloring ink 2. It is preferable to appropriately select and use such a material, and examples of the material that meets such a condition include colorless and transparent or colored vinyl chloride.

Next, the manufacturing method and operation of the fluorescent lamp constructed as described above will be described with reference to FIG.

According to this fluorescent lamp, after printing and displaying the advertisement letters 3 and the picture 4 on the surface of the film 6 by printing means such as screen printing using the phosphor coloring ink 2, the adhesive is adhered. The printed film 6 is attached to the surface of the ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 by using a chemical agent or by utilizing only the heat shrinkage of the film 6 without using an adhesive agent.

In the fluorescent lamp manufactured as described above, when electric power is supplied from the connector 5 to the ultraviolet radiating lamp 1, the ultraviolet radiating lamp 1 radiates ultraviolet rays and radiates in this way. Ultraviolet rays film 6
The letters 3 and the patterns 4 etc. are irradiated with the light through, and thereby the letters 3 etc. themselves emit a fluorescent color.

At this time, since the portion A other than the characters 3 and the like does not develop a color and becomes a background, the colored characters 3 and the like stand out clearly from the background without being assimilated into the background and being easy to recognize. It can have an impact.

Therefore, according to the above embodiment, it is of course possible to provide a fluorescent lamp which is easy to recognize characters and has a strong impact and which is highly effective in advertising, and of course, it is possible to use a fluorescent coloring ink. Since the displayed characters and pictures for advertisement are arranged on the surface of the ultraviolet radiation lamp through the film, the advertisement for the advertisement is made on the surface of the film by screen printing with phosphor coloring ink in advance. Since it is possible to print the characters and pictures, it is not necessary to use a special printing means such as a machine for curved surface printing, and it is possible to easily manufacture a fluorescent lamp of this kind having a high advertising effect.

In the above embodiment, the case where the straight line type ultraviolet radiation lamp 1 is used has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this type and, for example, a circle line type ultraviolet radiation lamp may be used. Of course.
