  • Patent number: 6570328
    Abstract: The electric lamp comprises a lamp vessel (1) and an electric element (4). The electric element (4) is electrically connected to the outside via a current feedthrough (8) which comprises a molybdenum gauze as a metal sealing part (6). The risks of too strong oxidation of the metal sealing part and of excessive tensile stresses in the seal are both decreased when the molybdenum gauze (6) is used, hence the safety of the lamp is increased.
