Patent number: 6768264Abstract: A short arc lamp is optimized for improved thermal performance characteristics. The short arc lamp includes a ceramic body having a concave reflective surface formed in an upper end thereof, a base adapted to receive the base end of the ceramic body in abutting relation, and a window frame assembly positioned in abutting concentric relation with the upper end of the ceramic body. In particular, the ceramic body is formed from beryllia (beryllium oxide) which has superior thermal transfer characteristics. The lamp is further provided with a specialized coating which help keep infra-red (IR) light energy from escaping from the lamp. In one instance, the coating is an IR reflective coating placed on the window of the lamp to reflect IR light energy back into the lamp where it can be conducted outwardly through the beryllium oxide body and base.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2003Date of Patent: July 27, 2004Inventors: Paul L.

Patent number: 5721465Abstract: A xenon arc lamp comprises a cylindrical ceramic body in which an elliptical reflector is molded to have a diameter of about 1.4 inches. The ends each have metal electrical contact rings, one for the anode and one for the cathode. The body has two different diameters with a step in between at the middle that is formed into the ceramic. A standardized anode heat sink for lesser-powered conventional one inch modular lamp bases is fitted to the base and makes thermal contact to the ledge underside of the step in the ceramic. Thus two dissimilar orthogonal heat transfer interfaces are formed, one radial which is metal to metal, and one axial which is ceramic to metal. A standardized cathode heat sink for the same lesser-powered conventional one inch modular lamp bases is relieved for about half of its inside length to accommodate the 1.4 inch reflector diameter and is fitted to the front.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 1996Date of Patent: February 24, 1998Assignee: ILC Technology, Inc.Inventor: Roy D.

Patent number: 5399931Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is a short arc lamp comprising an alumina ceramic cylindrically shaped body with a concave opening at one end that is silvered to form a reflector, a cathode suspended within the concave opening in opposition to an anode that protrudes through a hole in the center of the concave opening from the opposite end of the body, a circular iron base that supports the anode at its center and attaches to the body with a metal ring that bridges a separation between the base and the body, and a copper heat transfer pad that is brazed to the inside of the metal ring and the body such that heat is efficiently transferred from the area of the concave reflector near the hole for the anode to a heat sink that attaches to the metal ring outside the lamp. A copper plug brazed as an integral part of the anode serves to distribute heat efficiently throughout the anode.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 1993Date of Patent: March 21, 1995Assignee: ILC Technology, Inc.Inventor: Roy D.

Patent number: 4559466Abstract: Conventional discharge tubes comprise electrodes within a separate containing vessel. The electrodes are joined to an external circuit by electrical conductors which pass through the vessel wall via an insulated side arm. Such a construction has disadvantages in that careful manufacture is required and it is also difficult to produce a desired distribution of the active medium in a laser and maintain a stable optimum temperature. In an attempt to reduce these problems the invention provides a discharge vessel which comprises electrical conductors and insulators arranged alternately so that a separate discharge vessel is not required. Since the discharge vessel is partially thermally conducting, temperature control is facilitated by its fast response to stabilizing controls, heat being supplied from an external source.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1983Date of Patent: December 17, 1985Assignee: English Electric Valve Company LimitedInventors: Timothy P. Donaldson, Colin A. Pirrie, Arthur Maitland

Patent number: 4437039Abstract: High-intensity-discharge (HID) sodium lamp has a starting aid comprising a conducting ceramic which is hermetically sealed to and extends through an alumina arc tube at least at one end thereof to form an electrically conducting path. The conducting ceramic is fused to the alumina arc tube and is electrically conductive by virtue of having embedded therein a small percentage of finely divided refractory metal. At least during starting, the conducting ceramic is electrically connected through a resistor to the opposite lamp electrode and, as a result, on application of energizing potential, a glow discharge is established between an arc-tube-interior portion of the conducting ceramic and the adjacent electrode to ionize the atmosphere within the arc tube and facilitate lamp starting.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 1979Date of Patent: March 13, 1984Assignee: North American Philips Electric Corp.Inventor: Daniel A. Larson

Patent number: 4318024Abstract: A flash tube is disclosed having metallic end caps attached either in the shape of a plate or a cup upon ends of a glass or quartz tube. They are attached by adhesive, or are soldered on by soldering glass. One of the end caps internally supports a sintered body as a cathode. Soldering temperatures and a distance of the sintered body from the soldered joint when soldering glass is used are chosen such that no activating metal of the sintered body evaporates, since this reduces the work function of the electrons at the ends of the tube.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 1979Date of Patent: March 2, 1982Assignee: Heimann GmbHInventors: Werner Rech, Wolfgang Welsch, Josef Zimlich
