Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the relative adjustment of an envelope and a cap of a filament lamp 7211841 by means of an optical system with which a reproduction of the fi Aug. 31, 1972 Netherlands................. «

  • the invention relates to a device for the relative adjustment ofenvelope and cap of filament lamps before said cap and envelope are secured together, said device comprising at least one optical system by means of which the filament arranged inside the envelope is reproduced on a number of photoelectric cells which are connected electrically to a control mechanism by means of which holders for cap and envelope present in the device are movable.
  • a device for the relative adjustment ofenvelope and cap of filament lamps before said cap and envelope are secured together, said device comprising at least one optical system by means of which the filament arranged inside the envelope is reproduced on a number of photoelectric cells which are connected electrically to a control mechanism by means of which holders for cap and envelope present in the device are movable.
  • the reproduction of the filament projected on the photoelectric cells should be so sharp that the photoeletric cells are activated onlyby said reproduction.
  • the wall parts of said photoelectric cells through which the light enters the photoelectric cell will have to be so large that in two juxtaposed photo electric cells a very small region is formed between the relevant wall parts which is insensitive to light signals. Photoelectric cells which satisfy said requirements are not available in trade.
  • the device is characterized in that a number-of bundles of light conductors are present which each communicate with their one end with a photoelectric cell, the oppositely located ends of the bundles debouching beside each other into a screen on which the filament is reproduced.
  • the light impinging on the said screen is guided to the wall parts of the photoelectric cells which are sensitive to light signals.
  • a favorable embodiment of the device according to the invention is characterized in that each bundle, at the area where it debouches into the screen, has a striplike cross-section, the length direction of each strip extending at least approximately parallel to the line which joins the centres of the envelope and the cap.
  • the reason for said strip-like subdivision of the screen is the following.
  • the envelope of most filament lamps, of which the filament should occupy an accurate position relative to the lamp cap, shows a rotationally symmetric shape, the axis of symmetry lying in the plane in which the filament extends. In a mechanized manufacture of the filament lamp it has been found difficult in practice to each time clamp and the envelope in the holder in such manner that the plane in which the filament extends each time occupies the same position relative to the screen.
  • FIG. 1 shows diagrammatically an embodiment of the device according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 show the shape and arrangement of the bundles of light conductors respectively in sectional views taken through a horizontal plane and a vertical plane.
  • the cap 1 and envelope 2 to be adjusted relative to each other are each clamped in holders 3 and 4, respectively.
  • the filament 5 is stretched inside the envelope 2 of a transparent material and shows an approximately U-shape.
  • the holder 3 is rigidly secured whereas the holder 4 is movable.
  • the device furthermore comprises two optical systems which are denoted by 6 and 7 and the optical axes of which encloses an angle of approximately
  • the filament is reproduced on screens 10 and 11, respectively, with each optical system constituted by a light source 8 and a lens 9.
  • Each screen is formed on the front of a body 12 and 13 which is normally made ofa synthetic material in which bundles of light conductors 14 are embedded.
  • Each bundle 14 communicates on the rear side of the body in which it is embedded with a photoelectric cell 15.
  • Each photoelectric cell is electrically connected to a control mechanism not shown by means of which the movement of the holder 4 and hence also of the envelope 5 is controlled.
  • each bundle of light conductors at the area of the screen 10 or 11 has a strip-like shape 18 and at the area of the rear side of the synthetic body a shape which corresponds to the shape of the light inlet aperture of the photoelectric cell 15.
  • both parts are secured together, for example, by means of cement.
  • the diameter of the filament is 148 [L and the diameter of the envelope is l lmms.
  • a device for the relative adjustment of envelope and cap of filament lamps before said cap and envelope are secured together comprising at least one optical system by means of which the filament arranged inside the envelope is reproduced on a number of photoelectric cells are connected electrically to a control mechanism by means of which holders for cap and envelope present in the device are movable, wherein a number of bundles of elongated light conductors each of which communicate with at one end with a photoelectric cell, the oppositely located ends of the conductors debouching beside each other into a screen on which the filament is reproduced, each conerally right angles thereto.
