Abstract:
A light irradiation device includes a protective tube, which has a wire insertion path therein, a light source unit facing and disposed along an upper part of the protective tube, and a gutter-shaped concave reflection mirror facing the light source unit and provided below the protective tube. The concave reflection mirror is received in a gutter-shaped concave accommodating part provided in a holding body, and has flange portions extending from the outer surface in the horizontal direction. The convex reflection mirror is detachably affixed to the holding body with the flange portions.
Abstract:
A light-emitting device includes an autotransformer, a circuit module and a light-emitting module. The autotransformer includes a first positive conductive wire for receiving a first input voltage within a first predetermined voltage range, a second positive conductive wire for receiving a second input voltage within a second predetermined voltage range, and a common negative conductive wire electrically mated to the first positive conductive wire and the second positive conductive wire. The first predetermined voltage range is larger than the second predetermined voltage range. The circuit module includes a driver electrically connected to the autotransformer, and a predetermined operating voltage value for driving the driver is substantially within the second predetermined voltage range. The light-emitting module is electrically connected to the driver. Therefore, one of both the first and the second positive conductive wires along with the common negative conductive wire are electrically connected to an AC power source.

Abstract:
Apparatuses are disclosed which include a discharge lamp configured to emit ultraviolet light, a power circuit configured to operate the discharge lamp, and a reflector system configured to redirect ultraviolet light emitted from the discharge lamp. In some embodiments, the apparatuses include a support structure containing the power circuit and supporting the discharge lamp. In some of such embodiments, the reflector system is configured to redirect ultraviolet light propagating away from the support structure to a region exterior to the apparatus and which is between approximately 2 feet and approximately 4 feet from a floor of a room in which the apparatus is arranged. In other embodiments, the reflector system may be additionally or alternatively configured to redirect ultraviolet light propagating away from the support structure to encircle an exterior surface of the apparatus. In any case, the reflector system may, in some embodiments, include a repositionable reflector.

Abstract:
A multi-spectral uniform light source provides a single light source for a variety of applications. The gas or gases inside the light source may be exchanged for another gas or gases depending on the desired application and need for a particular wavelength of emitted light.
Abstract:
A high intensity light source comprises a solid dielectric sheet having its back surface in contact with a conducting medium, which is electrically conducted to a fixed potential (such as ground) and its front surface free to receive electric charge to be electrostatically bound to the sheet. In one example, the charge is delivered to the surface by a unipolar Corona discharge arrangement having a plurality of Corona sources at different locations over the surface of the sheet. In order to generate a light output from the source, the electric charge build-up on the surface is discharged as an electric discharge by the rapid application of a switchable voltage to at least a localized region of the surface.
