Abstract: A discharge lamp which enables glare reduction, so that a lighting fixture can be simplified and reduced in weight. The discharge lamp includes an arc tube having a discharge space, a pair of electrodes having tips facing with each other within the discharge space, an outer tube enclosing the arc tube, a base that fixes one side of the outer tube, and two band-shaped light-intercepting films extending on a surface of the outer tube in the direction of the axis of the arc tube and in parallel with each other, wherein in at least one of the light-intercepting films, an extending portion is formed that extends on the side of the top of the outer tube with respect to the tip of the electrode within the discharge space and in the circumferential direction of the outer tube. Accordingly, unevenness in the intensity distribution of the light distribution pattern can be reduced, and generation of glare can be prevented. Furthermore, because it is not necessary to add a further mechanism for reducing glare such as a light-intercepting plate, a lighting fixture can be simplified and reduced in weight.

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.

Abstract: An electrodeless fluorescent lamp employs a glass envelope made from a single linear tube filled with inert gas and mercury vapor. Phosphor and protective coatings are disposed on the inner surface of the envelope walls. An induction coil of few turns made from silver coated copper or Litz wire is wrapped around the linear tube in its axial direction. The inductively-coupled axially uniform plasma is generated inside the linear tube. The discharge electric field and current form a closed-loop path inside a tube in its axial direction. The lamp is operated at frequencies from 100 KHz to 100 MHz and RF power from 10 W to 2000 W (dependent on lamp size and number of turns). The lamp power efficiency and efficacy are comparable to those in electrodeless lamps of closed-loop shape operated with and without ferrite core.

Abstract: Arc tube (10) has a bulbous body (12) with a hollow center portion (14) and opposite ends (16, 18). Each of these ends has a cylindrical terminal-receiving section (20, 22) extending therefrom. The hollow center portion (14) has an internal length A and an internal diameter B that provides an aspect ratio of less than 5 and an outer surface area to inner surface area ratio, measured in square units, of less than 1.5. Electrodes (24) and (26) are hermetically sealed in the terminal-receiving sections (20, 22). The lamp uses less than 7 mgs of mercury. The low pressure operation allows the use of the arc tube in lamps without a shroud and the low mercury allow the lamp to pass TCLP requirement and be conventionally landfilled.

Abstract: A lighting system includes a fluorescent lamp 4 and a main body 1 for attaching the fluorescent lamp 4 thereto. The main body 1 is provided with a socket assembly 6 for the attachment of the fluorescent lamp 4, and an electronic ballast 7 for operating the fluorescent lamp 4 at dimmed levels (as well as at the full light level). The fluorescent lamp 4 is composed of a discharge tube formed of four U-shaped glass tubes that are connected together to form a square in plan view. Each glass tube has an inner diameter of 13.5 mm, and the discharge tube is filled with a rare gas containing neon and argon (at 50:50 ratio by volume). When operating the fluorescent lamp 4 at the full light level, the electronic ballast 7 applies the nominal lamp current of 0.43 A.
