Description of the invention (P [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a discharge lamp and an ultraviolet irradiation device using the discharge lamp (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page). [Knowledge Technology] As Ultraviolet light emitting ultraviolet light reveals various (barrier) dielectric barrier discharge lamps, and such dielectric barrier discharge lamps are sealed with discharge mediators (excimer-generating gases) that generate (excited) excimers. An airtight space, and a pair of electrodes are arranged inside and outside the discharge space, and a high voltage is applied between these electrodes to discharge. From this discharge, ultraviolet rays will be emitted from the discharge media. 9 is a front view showing an example of a conventional dielectric barrier discharge lamp. In FIG. 9, 101 is a cylindrical airtight container, 102 is an external electrode having conductivity, and 103 is an inner portion having conductivity The electrode, 104 is a closed part, and 105 is a high-frequency generating circuit. Inside the airtight container 101, xenon gas is enclosed as an excimer-generating gas. Employees of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs The consumer cooperative printed airtight container 1 0 1 is formed of a UV-transmissive (electrical) dielectric material such as quartz. The external electrode 10 2 is wound in a coil shape to be mounted on the outer periphery of the airtight container 1 0 1. (Circle). The internal electrode 103 is a conductive member having a shape such as a coil shape, a rod shape, a line shape, or a plate shape, and is connected to a lead wire 106 fixed to the sealing portion 104. High frequency Generating circuit 1 0 5 is applied voltage to external electrode 1 2 and this paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm)-4 _ 543074 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (j Internal electrode 1 0 3, to supply the required electrical energy to the (electrical) dielectric barrier. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page} The dielectric barrier discharge lamp constructed in this way is applied by the local frequency generating circuit 1 0 5 When the voltage is between the external electrode 10 and the internal electrode 103, a dielectric barrier discharge occurs between the external electrodes 102 and the internal electrode 103. The dielectric barrier discharges and seals the gas barrier. The exact division of xenon and the like in the container 1 0 1 The generated gas will temporarily combine with the molecular state (excited excimer state). When the molecular state is restored to the atomic basic (normal) state, it will emit light and then absorb less ultraviolet rays. This state is a medium Luminous principle of the barrier discharge lamp. [Problems to be solved by the invention] (Disconnection of external electrodes) As shown in Fig. 9, the external electrodes 1 0 2 wound in a line shape are not to prevent the transmission of airtight containers 1 0 1 Ultraviolet rays are radiated and a thin wire diameter is used. For this reason, if an electric current is passed to the external electrode 102 when the current is applied, the external electrode 102 may be disconnected. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Another example is described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 7-2 7 2 6 92 2 ’A seamless (pressed) cylindrical metal mesh is used. However, when a cylindrical metal mesh is used as an external electrode, the structure of the external electrode becomes complicated and costly. Furthermore, when a cylindrical metal mesh is used as an external electrical device, the ratio of light emitted by the cylindrical metal mesh among the emitted ultraviolet rays will increase, which will reduce the ultraviolet radiation performance. This paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) -5- 543074 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (3 (uniformity of long axis direction of dielectric barrier discharge lamp) (Please read the note on the back first) Please fill in this page again) When the external electrode 1 2 is wound around the outer periphery (circle) of the airtight container 10, an inductance component will be generated. The generation of the inductance component will cause the impedance to change and make the long axis of the airtight container Each part of the direction will form a part that is prone to produce a dielectric barrier discharge lamp and a part that is difficult to produce, so that the part along the long axis direction of the airtight container forms uneven (uneven production) ultraviolet and linear irradiation. Therefore, It can reduce the uniformity of the light irradiated in the long axis direction of the dielectric barrier discharge lamp. [Power (illumination) of the dielectric barrier discharge lamp] To increase the power of the dielectric barrier discharge lamp to increase the ultraviolet illuminance, it is necessary to increase the voltage to be applied However, to increase the voltage to be applied, it is necessary to change the design of the dielectric barrier discharge lamp to a high voltage. For this reason, the object of the present invention is to not increase the winding into a coil. The outer diameter of the outer electrode of the airtight container can prevent the external electrical disconnection caused by overcurrent. Another objective of the present invention is to print the invention by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The uniformity of the light irradiated in the long axis direction. Another object of the present invention is to increase the power (power) of a discharge lamp without increasing the applied voltage to increase the illuminance of ultraviolet rays. Means] The discharge lamp of the invention described in item 1 of the scope of patent application (hereinafter referred to as application item 1, hereinafter the same) is characterized by having: (The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) 543074 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (j (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Electricity) Slim tube-shaped airtight container formed by dielectric material; along the long axis of the aforementioned airtight container Internal electrodes arranged in the direction; external electrodes wound in a coil shape around the outer axis along the long axis direction of the airtight container; contacting the outer peripheral surface of the airtight container and along the The airtight container is arranged along the long axis direction, and the auxiliary electrode is wound with the airtight container together with the external electrode and has a wider cross-sectional area than that of the external electrode; and a discharge enclosed in the airtight container Therefore, when a voltage is applied to the external electrode and the internal electrode, a discharge is generated between the two electrodes. Therefore, when X e (xenon) is enclosed, the discharge medium enclosed in the airtight container is temporarily Combined with the molecular state (excimer state), and returning from such a molecular state to the normal (basic) state of the atom, it can effectively emit less reabsorbed light so that the discharge lamp will emit light. The wavelength band of the emitted light Depending on the type of discharge media enclosed in the airtight container, it emits ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 17 2 nm. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs When it is to be constructed so as not to hinder the light from the discharge lamp, it is desirable to make the external electrodes thin. However, when the external electrode is thin, disconnection may occur when a current flows. If an auxiliary electrode is provided, a part of the current will flow to the auxiliary electrode and an overcurrent can be prevented from flowing to the external current. Therefore, the disconnection of the external electrode caused by the overcurrent can be prevented. When the external electrode is wound around the outer periphery of the airtight container, an inductance component is generated. The generation of the inductance component can cause a change in impedance, so that parts that are prone to discharge and parts that are difficult to generate will be formed in each part of the airtight container in the long axis direction. However, the light irradiation amount in each part along the long axis direction of the airtight container will be uneven, which will reduce the irradiation in the long axis direction of the long lamp. The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297) Mm) 543074 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (g (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) The uniformity of light. However, the auxiliary electrode is arranged along the long axis of the airtight container, making the coil shape The external electrode is short-circuited, which can prevent the generation of inductance components. As a result, the change in impedance in the long axis direction of the discharge lamp can be eliminated, and a slightly uniform discharge can be generated in the entire area of the long axis direction of the airtight container, which can improve the discharge lamp. The uniformity of the light irradiated in the long axis direction. When the discharge lamp is represented by an equivalent circuit, it is determined by the resistance component "R" of the discharge space and the gas. The capacitive load formed by the capacitive component "C" in the sealed container portion, when the capacitive component "C" is increased, the power of the discharge lamp can be increased without increasing the applied voltage, so that the light radiated from the discharge lamp can be improved. The capacitance component “C” is to increase the contact area between the external electrode and the auxiliary electrode which will be a part of the external electrode and the airtight container. That is, because the auxiliary electrode is provided in the The power of the discharge lamp can be increased without increasing the applied voltage, so the illuminance of the light radiated from the discharge lamp can be increased. In the discharge lamp of the present invention, when the wire diameter of the external electrode is d 1mm, the winding pitch size When it is hmm, it is defined as a relationship of 1 0 < h / d 1 &1; 100. It is printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The winding size h of the external electrode can suppress the light emitted from the airtight container, and the light shielding rate caused by the external electrode is less than 10%, so that the light irradiation performance can be maintained. On the other hand, when the wire diameter d 1 of the external electrode is 0.1 mm, and if h / d 1 becomes 1 or less, the winding pitch size becomes 1 mm or less, and the external electrode greatly increases. Ground blocking (covering) comes from the paper size. Applicable to the Chinese national standard (O Yang) 8 4 specifications (210 '/ 297 mm) -8- 543074 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (g The light from the electric lamp makes The required light cannot be obtained. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page.) When the wire diameter d 1 of the external electrode is 0.1 mm and h / d 1 is 100 or more, the adjacent The distance between the external electrodes becomes a large interval of 10 mm or more, so that it is difficult to move along the surface to generate a discharge. As a result, the so-called uniformity of the light irradiated in the axial direction of the discharge lamp is significantly reduced. In the discharge lamp of the present invention, shrinkage portions are formed on both ends of the airtight container, and the external electrode is wound around the shrinkage portion several times. Therefore, it is possible to prevent slack in the external electrical wires wound around the outer circumference (perimeter) of the airtight container, and to prevent dislocations in the winding pitch dimension of the external electrodes caused by such slack. In the discharge lamp of the present invention, a seal portion forming a pinch seal is formed on both ends of the airtight container, and a rough surface is formed on the inner side facing the seal portion on both ends of the airtight container and facing the foregoing. The sloped area (office) of the seal. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Therefore, the external electrode wound around the outer periphery of the airtight container will be wound around the rough surface at the inclined surface formed at the two end portions, so that the frictional resistance caused by the rough surface is large. In addition, the wound external electrodes can be prevented from slipping along the inclined surface. Therefore, the wound state of the external electrodes can be stabilized.

Description of the invention (L (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) In such a structure, when the ultraviolet irradiation device 21 is used to irradiate the object 2 8 with ultraviolet rays, it will be as shown in Figure 8 As shown, the object to be irradiated 28 is arranged at a position opposite to the dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1 of the ultraviolet irradiation device 21, and the high-frequency generating circuit 2 3 is driven. Because the high-frequency generating circuit 2 3 is driven, it will be based on the above The light emission principle radiates ultraviolet rays from the dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1, and the ultraviolet rays transmitted through the airtight container 2 and the outer tube 7 collide with the surface of the illuminated object 28, so that the surface can be cleaned. The dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1 is Equipped with the double tube structure of the airtight container 2 and the outer tube 7, it can prevent dirt from adhering to the external electrode 5. It can also prevent metal ions flying out of the external electrode 5 from adhering to the irradiated object 28. It can also access the medium The barrier discharge lamp 1 is irradiated with the object to be irradiated, and therefore, the object to be irradiated can be irradiated with ultraviolet rays with good efficiency. The ultraviolet irradiation device 21 is configured so that a plurality of dielectric barrier discharge lamps 1 are in a close state. , So that the amount of ultraviolet radiation can be slightly uniform on the surface of the object to be irradiated, so that the cleaning performance by ultraviolet rays can be improved.

The nitrogen barrier can also be used to cool the dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1 so that the temperature rise caused by the heat at the time of light emission can be prevented and the accompanying As the temperature rises, the luminous efficiency of ultraviolet rays will be reduced. Therefore, the Chinese paper standard (CNS) A4 (210X29? Mm) can be applied to this paper size. — — &Quot; -24-543074 A7 ______B7 5. Description of the invention (Seven maintenance High luminous efficiency. According to the ultraviolet irradiation device 2 1, because of the ultraviolet rays irradiated to the object 2 8 (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page), Barrier discharge lamps 丨 form directly facing each other, so when a plurality of dielectric barrier discharge lamps are arranged to imitate the concave and convex shape of the surface of the irradiated object 28, good efficiency can be achieved even for the irradiated object 28 that does not form a planar shape. Furthermore, the ultraviolet irradiation device 2 1 of this embodiment will be described using the dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1 described in the first embodiment as an example, but it can also be used instead of the dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1. The dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1 a described in the second embodiment, or the dielectric barrier discharge lamp 1 b described in the third embodiment. [Effects of the invention] Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs according to the application item 1 The discharge lamp of the invention has an external electrode wound in a coil shape around the long axis of the airtight container, and is arranged in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the airtight container in the long axis direction, and is wound around the airtight with the external electrode. The container has an auxiliary electrode with a wider cross-sectional area than the external cross-sectional area. Therefore, although the external electrode does not interfere with the light from the discharge lamp, It is small in size so that a disconnection is easily caused by an overcurrent, but an auxiliary electrode is provided to prevent an overcurrent from flowing to an external electrode, thereby preventing an external electrode from being disconnected due to an overcurrent. When the external electrode is wound around the outer periphery of the airtight container, inductance will be generated to reduce the uniformity of the light irradiated in the long axis direction of the airtight container. However, by providing an auxiliary electrode along the long axis direction of the airtight container, it can be short. Coiled external electrodes to prevent inductance. This paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210X297 mm) -25- 543074 A7 ___B7 V. Description of the invention (^ (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this (Page) 'The impedance change in the long axis direction of the discharge lamp is eliminated, and a stable discharge can be generated in the entire area of the long axis direction of the airtight container, so that the uniformity of the light irradiated in the long axis direction of the airtight container can be improved. Or, if the discharge lamp is represented by an equivalent circuit, it is a capacitive component formed by the resistance component "R," of the discharge space portion and the capacitance portion "C" of the airtight container portion, and the capacitance component is increasing " C ”, it is not necessary to increase the power of the discharge lamp by increasing the applied voltage, so that the illuminance of the light from the discharge lamp can be increased, and the external electrode and the formation can be increased. The contact area of the auxiliary electrode that is part of the external electrode and the airtight container can increase the capacitance component "C", that is, because the auxiliary electrode is provided, the applied voltage can be increased unnecessarily. Power, so that the illuminance of the light radiated from the discharge lamp can be increased. According to the present invention, in the consumer lamp of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, in the discharge lamp of application item 1, the wire diameter of the external electrode is d 1 mm, wound When the pitch size is hmm, the relationship is defined as 1 0 < h / d 1 < 100. Therefore, the light shielding rate of shielding the light irradiated from the airtight container by the external electrode can be suppressed to 10% or less. The light irradiation performance can be maintained well. When it is stipulated in this way, the pitch gap of the external electrodes can be prevented from being too wide, so that the discharge along the inner peripheral surface of the conductive airtight container can be promoted and the discharge can be stably generated. According to the present invention, in the discharge lamp of the application item 1, the shrinkage portions are formed at both ends of the airtight container, and the external electrode is wound around the shrinkage portions several times, so that it can be prevented from being wound around the airtightness. The external electrodes around the device are loosened, and the dislocation of the external electrode winding pitch caused by slackness is prevented. According to the present invention, the discharge lamp in the application item 1 forms a pinch seal. Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) ~ '-26-543074 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (h Both ends of the airtight container are formed on the inclined surfaces of the two ends of the airtight container facing the sealing portion There is a rough surface. Therefore, the outer electrode is wound on the rough surface facing the inclined surface formed at the sealing portion at both ends of the airtight container. The large frictional resistance of the rough surface can prevent the external electrode from sliding along the inclined surface. Therefore, the winding state of the external electrode can be stabilized. According to the present invention, in the discharge lamp of claim 1, the internal electrode has an internal power supply electrode disposed on a slightly central axis in the airtight container and extending toward the central axis, and along the inner peripheral surface of the airtight container. A plurality of conductive supports connected to the internal power supply electrode are formed in a ring shape and are arranged at equal intervals along the central axis of the airtight container. Therefore, when the internal power supply electrode is suspended by its own weight, etc., it conducts electricity. The flexible support is held in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the airtight container, so that the internal power supply electrode can be prevented from drooping. By preventing this sag, it is possible to prevent a large deviation in the distance between the internal electrode and the external electrode, so that it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a discharge-prone portion and a difficult-to-discharge portion caused by a large deviation in the distance between the internal electrode and the external electrode. Therefore, the discharge can be generated slightly uniformly in the entire area of the long-axis direction of the airtight container, and therefore, the uniformity of the light irradiated in the long-axis direction of the airtight container can be improved. Because of the conductive support, the distance between the conductive support which is a part of the internal electrode and the inner peripheral surface of the airtight container can be shortened, so that the discharge along the inner peripheral surface of the airtight container can be easily generated, which can improve the startability. , Which can further reduce the start-up voltage and the voltage for maintaining the lighting. According to the discharge lamp of the present invention, when the wire diameter dimension of the external electrode is d 1 mm and the pitch dimension of the conductive support is H mm, the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) is applied as the paper size. ) (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) #-Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs-27- 543074 A7 _ B7_ V. Description of the invention (Please read the notes on the back before filling in this (Page) 1 0 0 < H / d 1 < 3 0 0 and the formation of the conductive support can be arranged at an appropriate interval, so as to promote the occurrence of creeping discharges that convey the inner peripheral surface of the airtight container, and to produce stability According to the present invention, in the discharge lamp of claim 1, since the auxiliary electrode is disposed near the tip portion of the outer periphery of the airtight container, the auxiliary electrode or the tip portion may obstruct the light radiated from the airtight container. However, when the tip portion and the auxiliary electrode are arranged nearby and located on the side that does not need to irradiate light, the observation of the light from the discharge lamp can be maintained in a good state. The tip portion can be used as an auxiliary device. According to the present invention, a plurality of auxiliary electrodes are provided in the discharge lamp of the application item 1 according to the present invention, so that it is possible to more reliably prevent the external electrode from being generated by an overcurrent flowing to the external electrode. If the wire is broken, the contact area between the auxiliary electrode and the airtight container, which is part of the external electrode, becomes larger, so that the capacitance component "C" when the discharge lamp is represented by an equivalent circuit of a capacitive load can be increased. Without increasing the applied voltage, the power of the discharge lamp can be further increased, and the illuminance of the light irradiated from the discharge lamp can be further improved. The Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs, printed according to the present invention, and applied for item 1 The discharge lamp is connected to the auxiliary electrode with the lead wire to be energized to the external electrode. Therefore, all the lamp current can be prevented from flowing to the external electrode only in the connection part with the lead wire. Therefore, it can be prevented by the overcurrent. The disconnection of the external electrode caused by the invention. According to the invention of claim 2, the discharge lamp of claim 1 is provided with light.
