Definitions
- the invention relates to a high-pressure gas discharge lamp (HID [high intensity discharge] lamp) which is in particular free from mercury and suitable for use in automobile technology.
- HID high intensity discharge
- Conventional high-pressure gas discharge lamps contain on the one hand a discharge gas (usually a metal halide such as sodium iodide or scandium iodide) which is the actual light-emitting material (light generator), and on the other hand mercury which primarily serves to form a voltage gradient and has the essential function of enhancing the efficacy and burning voltage of the lamp.
- a discharge gas usually a metal halide such as sodium iodide or scandium iodide
- mercury which primarily serves to form a voltage gradient and has the essential function of enhancing the efficacy and burning voltage of the lamp.
- Lamps of this kind have come into widespread use because of their good properties and they are increasingly applied also in the field of automobile technology. It is also partly required in particular for this application, however, that the lamps should contain no mercury for environmental reasons.
- a general problem with mercury-free lamps is that a given lamp power in continuous operation results in a lower burning voltage and accordingly in a higher lamp current and a lower luminous efficacy.
- US-PS 5,952,768 discloses a discharge lamp with a transparent, preferably dichroic coating which absorbs ultraviolet radiation and preferably reflects infrared radiation so as to bring the coldest regions of the lamp to a higher temperature.
- the object of this is to maintain a higher metal halide vapor pressure and to improve the efficacy, life, and color properties of the lamp.
- this lamp still contains mercury in its gas filling, so that it does not comply with the above requirements relating to its use in automotive technology.
- a further object is to provide a high-pressure gas discharge lamp which has a mercury-free gas filling and has a higher burning voltage than is generally achievable with mercury-free lamps.
- the object is to provide a high-pressure gas discharge lamp with which at least one of the two objects mentioned above (higher efficacy and higher burning voltage) can be achieved without the necessity of increasing lamp power or enlarging the external dimensions of the outer bulb of the lamp. 5
- the object is in particular to provide a high-pressure gas discharge lamp which is suitable for use in automotive technology.
- the object is achieved with a mercury-free high-pressure gas discharge lamp having a discharge vessel which comprises an at least substantially infrared-reflecting coating on its wall portions which are lowermost in the operational position, the dimensioning of said coating being chosen such that after switching-on of the lamp the temperature of the light-generating substances collected on the coated wall portions [5 is increased to the extent that said substances enter the gaseous state at least substantially.
- the temperature rise is substantially achieved in that the infrared radiation issuing from the light arc discharge is incident on the coated wall portions and is reflected there, so that said radiation passes twice through the light-generating substances, which thus are heated correspondingly more strongly.
- the heating may in addition be caused to a minor 20 degree by any portions of the infrared radiation absorbed by the coating, whereby the coated wall portions, and thus also the light-generating substances deposited thereon, are additionally heated.
- the coating is accordingly dimensioned such that the light- 5 generating substances enter the gaseous state as much as possible, preferably fully.
- a high-pressure gas discharge lamp is known from US-PS 4,281 ,267 in which the discharge vessel is provided with an approximately semicircular reflecting coating, which may comprise zirconium oxide, in the regions of the electrodes, i.e. the axial ends.
- the object of this coating is to reduce multiple internal reflections.
- the coating provided on the latter in addition serves to reduce heat radiation.
- the efficacy and the luminous flux of the lamp is to be increased thereby, i.e. a suitable vapor pressure is to be maintained in the lamp.
- the dependent claims relate to advantageous further embodiments of the invention. It is possible to influence the temperature balance in a desired manner by means of the types of dimensioning mentioned in claim 2.
- the location of the temperature rise is determined by the location or extent of the coating (there where the light- generating substances are at least substantially deposited), while the degree of the temperature rise is adjusted by the packing density and by the size of the particles in the coating material, as well as the thickness of the coating.
- the embodiment of claim 3 has the particular advantage that light-reflecting properties can be achieved thereby - for example in the case of a metal coating -, so that an improved focusing of the radiated light in the manner of a primary and a secondary reflector can be achieved in co-operation with an additional main reflector.
- the embodiment of claim 4 has the particular advantage that the manufacturing process of the lamp itself need not be changed, but that an additional manufacturing step is used for providing the coating on the lamp which is otherwise manufactured in the usual manner.
- the reflected infrared radiation passes not only twice through the light-generating substance, but also twice through the coated wall regions, to which regions the coldest spot also belongs, as was noted above, so that also the temperature thereof is raised.
- the embodiment of claim 5 is capable of preventing light-generating substances from migrating into the pinches upon switching-on of the lamp and the accompanying heating-up, which would cause corrosion there of the molybdenum foils connected to the respective electrodes.
- Claim 6 describes an embodiment with a preferred, particularly effective coating.
- Claims 7 and 8 relate to voltage-gradient generators which are to be preferably used instead of mercury and by means of which a particularly good luminous efficacy of the lamp can be achieved, while claim 9 describes an alternative possibility for achieving this object, in particular a higher efficacy and burning voltage.
- Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic side elevation of a first embodiment
- Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic side elevation of a second embodiment
- Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic side elevation of a third embodiment
- Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic elevation of the third embodiment viewed from below.
- Figs. 1 to 3 show high-pressure gas discharge lamps according to the invention in the operational state.
- the lamps each comprise a discharge vessel 1 of quartz glass which encloses a discharge space 2 and which merges into quartz glass portions (pinches) 5 at its mutually opposed ends.
- the discharge space 2 is filled with a gas which is composed of a discharge gas emitting light radiation through excitation or discharge as well as preferably a voltage- gradient generator, which may both be chosen from the group of the metal halides.
- the light-generating substance is, for example, sodium iodide and/or scandium iodide, while the voltage-gradient generator used may be, for example, zinc iodide and/or other substances instead of mercury.
- certain quantities of rare gases may be introduced into the discharge space 2 so as to increase the gas pressure and thus the efficacy and the burning voltage.
- the respective other ends of the electrodes 3 are each connected to an electrically conductive tape or foil 4, in particular a molybdenum foil, via which an electrical connection is achieved between the connection terminals 6 of the discharge lamp and the electrodes 3.
- These ends of the electrodes 3 and the electrically conductive foil 4 are embedded in the pinches 5.
- the pinches 5 are preferably symmetrically arranged with respect to the discharge vessel 1, i.e. they lie on the longitudinal axis thereof. This has the advantage that the external dimensions of the outer bulb of the lamp according to the invention need not be changed, which is of particular importance especially for the use of these lamps in motor vehicle headlights. In addition, the manufacture of a lamp with symmetrical pinches is simpler and thus more cost-effective. An arc discharge (luminous arc) is excited between the tips of the electrodes 3 in the operational state of the lamp.
- the gas filling of the high-pressure gas discharge lamp according to the invention preferably comprises one or several suitable metal halides as a voltage-gradient generator instead of mercury.
- Said halides have a comparatively low partial vapor pressure, which renders it necessary to change the temperature balance in the discharge vessel 1 so as to achieve substantially the same luminous efficacy (luminous flux) as with the use of mercury as well as the highest possible burning voltage.
- coatings 15 which are preferably provided on the outer surfaces of the discharge vessel 2 and on portions of the pinches 5, or on the inner or outer surfaces of an outer bulb (not shown) which surrounds the discharge vessel.
- the coating 15 on the discharge vessel 2 because the edge of the coating can be attuned more exactly to the positions of the electrode tips and of the arc discharge formed between them there, which tips must not be screened off (in the desired radiation direction) by the coating.
- the coating 15 extends substantially only over the wall regions 10 which are lowermost in the operational position and over portions of the side wall of the discharge vessel 1, whereas the upper wall regions 13 have no coating.
- the portions of the pinches 5 adjoining the discharge vessel 2, by contrast, are provided with the coating 5 over their entire circumference.
- the coating 15 in the first embodiment of Fig. 1 extends over the lower wall regions 10 and the lateral walls of the discharge vessel 1, the coating edge extending below a connecting line between the two electrodes 3 and parallel to this line. The edge of the coating then extends upwards in the direction of the transition between the discharge vessel 1 and the pinch 5 in the region of each electrode tip, said pinch being finally fully surrounded by the coating 15.
- the edge of the coating 15 extends over the lateral walls of the discharge vessel 1 substantially in a V-shape from the uppermost transition point between the discharge vessel 1 and the pinch 5 in the direction of the lowermost point of the discharge vessel 1.
- the edge of the coating 15 is directed more steeply downwards at the lateral walls of the discharge vessel 1 away from said transition point, such that a portion of the lower wall region 10 is not covered by the coating.
- Fig. 4 which is a plan view of the lower side of the lamp.
- edge gradients are obviously possible for the coating which are modifications of the gradients shown, i.e. in which, for example, the distance of the edge of Fig. 1 to the connecting line between the electrodes is greater or smaller, or the steepness of the gradient of the edge of Figs. 2 and 3 is greater or smaller, or in which the edges are not straight but curved.
- the coating is substantially impermeable to visible light, that the light arc, in particular its hottest location (hot spot), as well as the electrode tips are not hidden or screened off with respect to a reflector.
- the coating is substantially formed by zirconium oxide (ZrO 2 ).
- Alternative materials may be used, however, for example Nb 2 O 5 and Ta 2 O 5 , which have an even better infrared-reflecting power than ZrO 2 , but which are comparatively expensive.
- the infrared radiation originating from the arc discharge is reflected by the coating for a major portion and is absorbed for a smaller portion or not at all.
- the coated wall portions and the light-generating substance deposited thereon are accordingly heated more strongly by the double passage of the infrared radiation than the portions free from coating during lamp operation.
- the reflectivity, and accordingly the degree of heating is essentially determined by the composition of the coating 15, in particular its packing density and particle size, and also substantially by its thickness.
- the coating 15 is provided on those regions and with such a packing density, particle size, and thickness, that the light-generating substance accumulated on the lowermost wall regions 10 and said wall regions themselves, which are also the coldest spots, are heated as strongly as possible after switching-on of the lamp.
- a luminous efficacy of the lamp can be achieved in particular with the coating 15 thus dimensioned such as had been possible until now substantially only with gas fillings containing mercury. Furthermore, the spectral characteristics and the color point of the generated light and the lumen maintenance correspond substantially to those of lamps which do contain mercury, which is of particular importance for automotive applications.
- the burning voltage of the lamp is also substantially increased by the coating 15 in comparison with known mercury-free lamps, again in dependence on the layer thickness, particle size, and packing density.
- a suitable coating of certain regions renders it possible also to achieve a particularly homogeneous temperature distribution over the wall of the discharge vessel 1 and the pinches 5.
- Table 1 shows the luminous efficacy for various lamp types without coating in comparison with the luminous efficacy of said lamps with a zirconium oxide coating provided in accordance with Figs. 1 to 3, and the respective differences between these luminous efficacies.
- Table 2 juxtaposes the burning voltages of these lamp types without and with the coating according to the invention mentioned above, as well as the differences between the two burning voltages resulting therefrom.
- Table 3 finally, lists the temperatures of the coldest spots for the same lamp types without coating and with the coating according to the invention mentioned above, with the resulting temperature differences.
- a luminous efficacy and/or burning voltage satisfactory for certain applications may be achieved with the coating 15 according to the invention also if mercury is omitted without replacement, if so desired, i.e. without the use of a voltage-gradient generator, or if certain quantities of rare gases (for example xenon) are introduced into the discharge space 2 as an alternative to the voltage-gradient generator so as to raise the gas pressure.
- a voltage-gradient generator or if certain quantities of rare gases (for example xenon) are introduced into the discharge space 2 as an alternative to the voltage-gradient generator so as to raise the gas pressure.
- the principle of the invention by which the temperature of the coldest spot of the discharge vessel is raised, is obviously also applicable to lamps which do contain mercury and in which the environmental disadvantages of mercury are accepted.
- a temperature rise may serve, for example, to increase the luminous efficacy or to reduce the lamp power for a given efficacy.
