    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for operating a high pressure discharge lamp includes input terminals for connection to a supply voltage source, lamp connection terminals for connection of the lamp, and a power supply coupled to the input terminals. The power supply provides a current to the lamp in the form of successive periods of current and includes a pulse generating element for generating a current pulse superpositioned on the periods of the current to the lamp. The pulse generation element is synchronized with an image writing signal.

    Abstract: An illumination unit has a light source, in particular a high-intensity discharge lamp or an ultra high performance lamp, a main reflector and a back reflector with an aperture opposite the main reflector. Light is reflected from the light source through the aperture onto the main reflector. The centers of the light source and the back reflector are located or shaped relative to each other such that a first sector angle (L 2 -L 2 ') enclosed between the light source center and the edge of the back reflector aperture is smaller than 180°. The efficiency of light emission is considerably increased. Preferred embodiments, each of which can cause a further increase in light output, relate to various shapes of the back reflector and the inner walls of the gas discharge space, as well as to the shape of the part of the glass bulb that surrounds the gas discharge space.

    Abstract: A discharge lamp, and particularly a high-pressure gas-discharge lamp (an HID (high-intensity discharge) lamp or UHP (ultra-high performance) lamp), having a reflector and a cooling means is described. The cooling means comprises at least one nozzle ( 3 ) by which a flow of gas can be directed onto the discharge lamp, the at least one nozzle ( 3 ) being so arranged that it does not extend, at least to any substantial degree, into a beam path produced by the lamp ( 2 ) and the reflector ( 1 ). In this way, the cooling means does not produce any obstacles on the beam path for the light. With preferred embodiments, it is possible to produce a turbulent flow that surrounds particularly the discharge vessel ( 21 ) of the lamp and that considerably increases the effectiveness of the cooling means. Further embodiments also allow the discharge lamp to be operated in a plurality of different positions without individual regions of the lamp being too little or too severely cooled.

    Abstract: The invention describes a method of shutting down a high pressure discharge lamp (1) in which a pair of electrodes (2) are disposed in an arc tube (3). This method comprises the steps of reducing the lamp power (PA) to a reduced operation level that enables the maintenance of an arc discharge between the electrodes (2) in a transition state from a lighting state to an extinguished state; driving the lamp (1) at the reduced operation level such that that the lamp (1) cools down; monitoring the lamp voltage (U) during this lamp power reduction process and during driving of the lamp (1) at the reduced operation level with regard to a defined discharge process stability criteria and increasing the lamp power (PA) if the discharge process stability criterion is not satisfied; completely shutting down the lamp power (PA) after sufficient duration to allow the lamp (1) to cool down to a state in which the gas pressure is such that the lamp (1) could be reignited shortly after being extinguished. Moreover the invention describes an appropriate driving unit (7) for driving a high pressure discharge lamp (1) and an image rendering system (40), particularly a projector system, comprising such a driving unit (4).
