Publication number: 20060238121Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrical incandescent lamp (1), in particular a halogen incandescent lamp, in which luminous element limbs (14, 16) extend in lamp vessel structural parts (42, 44), the lamp vessel structural parts surrounding the luminous element limbs in sections at a distance, and the axes of the lamp vessel structural parts (42, 44) extending at a distance from one another in order to increase the energy efficiency of the incandescent lamp, in particular if a layer (42a, 44a) which reflects IR radiation is applied to the lamp vessel structural parts. When using the pinch-sealing technology, it is possible to achieve a small system voltage halogen lamp having a long life expectancy and at the same time requiring little energy for reaching the operating temperature.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2006Publication date: October 26, 2006Applicant: PATENT-TREUHAND-GESELLSCHAFT FUR ELEKTRISCHE GLUHLAMPEN MBHInventor: Roland Stark

Publication number: 20060132016Abstract: The subject matter of the disclosure is a PAR lamp arrangement having an integral lamp, in particular an integral halogen lamp, which is inserted into a base and is surrounded at least in sections by a reflector, the base and the integral lamp being connected via contact springs, and the reflector being covered by a diffusing screen. According to the invention, the reflector is made from aluminum and is provided with a reflective surface or coating. Owing to the aluminum reflector used and the fact that the integral lamp is held via contact springs, improved holding of the integral lamp is made possible with reduced weight and production complexity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2005Publication date: June 22, 2006Applicant: PATENT-TREUHAND-GESELLSCHAFT FÜR ELEKTRISCH GLÜHLAMPEN MBHInventors: Josef Bauer, Herbert Fülz, Hans-Hermann Gmeiner, Thomas Mehr, Roland Stark, Inge Staudacher, Michael Willacker

Patent number: 6918710Abstract: An improved package, suitable for holding a treatment fluid comprising a volatile solvent and kits comprising the package containing the treatment fluid and an applicator are disclosed. The package comprises a reservoir for the liquid which is sealed by a ruturable seal. A cap, coupled to one end of the reservoir, is in the form of a sleeve which is axially translatable along the reservoir from first to second positions. A cutting tool integrated with the cap ruptures the rupturable seal as the cap is moved from first to second positions so that the liquid can thereby be made accessible through an opening in an end wall of the cap. The package provides excellent protection for volatile liquids, yet can be easily opened by a simple press-action, instantly providing access to the liquid so that it can subsequently accessed by a liquid applicator.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2003Date of Patent: July 19, 2005Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Kate Budds, Mark Jarvis, Roland Stark

Patent number: 6514445Abstract: A process for forming a grooming implement is provided. The steps include providing a blank having a head and a handle, wherein the head has one or more void spaces which divide said head into at least two segments, and injecting an elastomer into the void space at a temperature of at least about 245° C. thereby fusing the elastomer to the segments and forming a resiliently flexible joint. The elastomer is the sole mechanical link between the segments such that the segments can flex relative to each other and the elastomer can be stretched to about 120% of its unstressed length without separation of the elastomer from the segments.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 1999Date of Patent: February 4, 2003Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: David Victor Cann, Kilian John O'Neill, Roland Stark

Patent number: 5686783Abstract: To retain an electric lamp bulb (1), without cement, in a base sleeve (2), nd provide a strain relief for insulated connection leads (6, 7) extending from the lamp, the base is formed of a metallic base sleeve having two opposite side walls (2a, 2b); a base block formed of two parts (3a, 3b) is located within the base sleeve, the parts being essentially F-shaped defining recesses which, when the parts are placed against each other with the recesses facing each other, form through openings (4, 5) within which the electrical connection leads (6, 7) are located. The parts are slightly smaller than the width of the base sleeve, and, upon deformation of the side walls of the base sleeve, for example by forming inwardly projecting dimples (9), the parts are shifted against each other and the insulated electrical connection leads are thereby clamped in the through openings, providing strain relief.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 1996Date of Patent: November 11, 1997Assignee: Patent-Treuhand-Gesellschaft fuer elektrische Gluehlampen mbHInventor: Roland Stark
