Abstract: The invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp having an ignition aid and comprising a discharge vessel, which is accommodated in an outer bulb. The ignition aid is a UV enhancer having a can-like container (12), which has an inner electrode (18). At least part of the end-face edge of the inner electrode at least comes close to the end face (24) of the container (12). An external electrode is attached to the outside of the container.

Abstract: A high-pressure discharge lamp having an ignition aid, mounted in an outer bulb, wherein the discharge vessel comprises two ends having seals in which electrodes are mounted and wherein a frame having a clip wire retains the discharge vessel in the outer bulb. The clip wire is bent toward the seal of the opposite pole electrode until the bent part formed thereby acts as an ignition aid.

Abstract: A high-pressure discharge lamp having an ignition aid, may include a discharge vessel which is fitted in an outer bulb, wherein a UV enhancer is fitted as an ignition aid in the outer bulb, wherein the UV enhancer comprises a UV-transparent can-like container having an inner wall and end side and longitudinal axis, the container enclosing with its inner wall a cavity which is filled with a gas that can emit UV radiation, an inner vent electrode, which has at least one bend or kink, being fitted in the cavity in such a way that a bend or kink lie as close as possible to the inner wall of the container, and wherein an external electrode is applied externally in the vicinity of the container.
