Patent number: 8044559Abstract: A discharge lamp of the short arc type has a bulb with an arc tube and sealing tubes extending at opposite sides of the arc tube and which contains a discharge gas and a pair of opposed electrodes supported on lead pins which protrude from the outer end of the sealing tubes, the lead pins being affixed to graded glass in the sealing tube. A cooling fin surrounds the outer surface of one of the sealing tubes; and is formed of a pair of plate-shaped bodies each of which has a curved portion that contacts an outer surface of the sealing tube a strip-shaped portion extending radially from each of opposite edges of the curved portion. The strip-shaped portions of the plate-shaped bodies positionally overlap, and cooling openings are formed in the strip-shaped portions of only one of the plate-shaped bodies. Preferably, a gap is formed between the plate-shaped bodies.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2008Date of Patent: October 25, 2011Assignee: Ushiodenki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Takehiko Iguchi, Hitoshi Nakabayashi, Katsuoki Miyasu

Patent number: 7808620Abstract: A testing device equipped with: a microchip having a receiver for a test fluid, a discharge lamp which emits light into the microchip test fluid receiver, a light source housing in which the discharge lamp is located, and an arithmetic calculation mechanism, which calculates the concentration of the component to be detected, based on the intensity of the light emitted from the test fluid container unit. To reduce the size of the device and to shield the arithmetic calculation mechanism from electromagnetic waves generated around the light source, the light source housing is equipped with shielding connected to the ground on the outside of the light source housing made of insulating material. The light source housing is positioned within an enclosure of the testing device holding the microchip and containing the arithmetic calculation mechanism, analysis output device(s), and other components of the testing device.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2009Date of Patent: October 5, 2010Assignee: Ushiodenki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yoshimasa Ogawa, Katsuoki Miyasu, Yoshihiko Okumura

Patent number: 7545087Abstract: To devise a small light source device in which breaking of the bulb of the light source lamp can be suppressed and in which breaking of the bulb will not damage the window component, a light source lamp supported in a housing by only one of two hermetically sealed tubes at opposite ends of an arc tube, a cooling rib is mounted on a lead pin in the one of the sealed tubes that faces toward the window component and has a larger dimension in the radial direction than the maximum diameter of the opening edge of the light exit opening in the housing. The cooling rib serves to block bulb fragments and should it contact the peripheral edge area of the light exit opening with its edge that faces the window component, due to its size, neither the lead pin nor the cooling rib will contact the window component.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2006Date of Patent: June 9, 2009Assignee: Ushiodenki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Katsuoki Miyasu, Takehiko Iguchi, Shunichi Morimoto
