  • High pressure discharge lamp with tungsten electrode rods having first and second parts
    Patent number: 6590340
    Abstract: The high-pressure discharge lamp comprises a sealed lamp vessel (1) having a quartz glass wall (2) enclosing a discharge space (3). Metal foils (4) are embedded in the wall, connected to electrode rods (6a) projecting from the wall into the discharge space. The electrode rods (6a) have a first part (7a) and a second part (7b). The second part is made of tungsten with a diameter of 120 to 180 &mgr;m or molybdenum with a diameter of 120 to 350 &mgr;m, or tungsten-molybdenum mixtures with a diameter of 120 to 350 &mgr;m. The second part, which is positioned within the wall (2), prevents premature failure of the lamp caused by leakage.
