  • Method for connecting a current supply wire with a contact patch of an electrical lamp
    Patent number: 6759618
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for connecting a contact plate (2) a lamp cap to the supply conductor wire (4) which is passed through an aperture (2a) in the contact plate (2). With the aid of a wire (5) which serves as filler, the supply conductor wire (4) and the contact plate (2) are soldered together, by generating an arc between the additional wire (5) and the supply conductor wire (4) or the contact plate (2). The solidified molten material of the additional wire (5) closes off the aperture (2a) and produces a reliable soldered join between the supply conductor wire (4) and the contact plate (2). The polarity of the electric voltage used to generate the arc is advantageously such that the additional wire (5) acts as an anode and the contact plate (2) or the supply conductor wire (4) acts as a cathode. The soldering process according to the invention advantageously takes place under an inert-gas atmosphere.

  • High-pressure discharge lamp for motor vehicle headlights
    Patent number: 6752524
    Abstract: The invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp for motor vehicle headlights which is provided with an annular flange (127) for mounting the high-pressure discharge lamp in the lamp holder of the motor vehicle headlight. According to the invention, the annular flange (127) is fixed on the base (125) by means of a snap or latching connection and is adapted to the lamp holder of motor vehicle headlights for halogen incandescent lamps. As a result, the high-pressure discharge lamp according to the invention can be inserted in motor vehicle headlights for halogen incandescent lamps.
