Patent number: 7511410Abstract: 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: GrantFiled: December 14, 2005Date of Patent: March 31, 2009Assignee: Osram Gesellschaft Mit Beschraenuter HattungInventors: Josef Bauer, Herbert Fülz, Hans-Hermann Gmeiner, Thomas Mehr, Roland Stark, Inge Staudacher, Michael Willacker

Publication number: 20080137344Abstract: A lamp module for projectors, in particular for digital cinema and video projectors, has a reflector system which has at least two reflectors and in which a lamp is accommodated. The reflector system is electrically connected to the lamp and bears the lamp such that the reflector system and the lamp can be inserted into the projector as a preassembled unit and considerably simplifies assembly.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2005Publication date: June 12, 2008Applicant: Patent- Treuhand-Gesellschaft Fur Elektrische Gluhlampen MBHInventors: Richard Lang, Gerhard Loffler, Thomas Mehr, Dirk Rosenthal

Patent number: 7279839Abstract: A short arc high-pressure discharge lamp (1) for dc operation, includes a discharge vessel (2) that has two necks (4) diametrically opposite each other, in which an anode (26) and a cathode (7) made of tungsten are melted in a gastight manner, and which has a filling made of at least one noble gas and possibly mercury. According to the invention, at least the material of the cathode tip (11) contains lanthanum oxide La2O3 and at least another oxide from the group consisting of hafnium oxide HfO2 and zirconium oxide ZrO2 in addition to the abovementioned tungsten.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2003Date of Patent: October 9, 2007Assignee: Patent-Treuhand-Gesellschaft für elektrische Glühlampen mbHInventors: Lars Menzel, Dietmar Ehrlichmann, Thomas Mehr, Stephen Berndanner, Wolfgang Spielmann, Gerhard Leichtfried

Patent number: 6614186Abstract: A short-arc lamp (1) with a discharge vessel (2) which contains an anode (3) and cathode (4) which are opposite one another. The filling medium contains inert gases and/or metal vapors, and the anode comprises a body having a front section (11), a substantially cylindrical body (12) and a rear face (13). Provided in the region of the front half of the cylindrical body is a projection (20) whose radial length (X) projects at least 0.5 mm beyond the cylindrical body (12).Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2001Date of Patent: September 2, 2003Assignee: Patent-Treuhand-Gesellschaft für Glühlampen mbHInventors: Thomas Mehr, Dietmar Ehrlichmann, Gerhard Loeffler
