  • Low-pressure discharge lamp with connector
    Patent number: 6741018
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a low-pressure discharge lamp (1) including a discharge tube (20) and a base (5) providing for mechanical and electrical connection of the discharge lamp (1). The discharge tube (20) sealed in a gas-tight manner at its both ends is bent substantially in one plane so that the discharge tube (20) has straight (2) and arc-shaped portions (3), and the base (5) connected to the ends of the discharge tube (20) includes at least cathode leads of the discharge tube (20) and electrical connectors (15) connected to said leads. At least one component ensuring mechanical connection to a lampholder is formed on the base (5). The components of the discharge lamp (1) ensuring mechanical connection to the lampholder (16) are placed in a space bordered by the discharge tube (20). A lampholder (16) of the discharge lamp (1) includes components ensuring electrical and mechanical connection to the discharge lamp (1).

  • Discharge lamp with end of life arc extinguishing structure
    Patent number: 6380676
    Abstract: A discharge lamp comprises a discharge tube having discharge electrodes (10) at both ends thereof. Two lead wires (8) are connected to each of said electrodes (10) that lead to the outside atmosphere from the inside of the discharge tube. The discharge tube contains a fill as an arc discharge generating and sustaining medium. A tungsten coil (14) is connected to at least one lead wire (8) of at least one electrode (10) and placed adjacent to said electrode (10). At least one material selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, barium carbonate and strontium carbonate is applied to the inside and the surface of the tungsten coil (14).
