Abstract: A ceramic discharge vessel having end portions and an inner space formed therein is filled with an ionizable light emitting substance and a starter gas. The end portion has an inner wall surface facing an opening formed in the end portion. A hollow portion is formed in the conductive member. The conductive member is inserted into the opening of the end portion of the vessel. A joining layer joins the inner wall surface of the end portion and the outer surface of the conductive member. A recess facing the opening is formed in the end portion, and the recess extends circumferentially with respect to the central axis “X” of the vessel. When the conductive member is inserted into the opening of the end portion of the vessel and joined, the adherence or residue of joining material onto the end face or inner surface of the conductive member may be prevented.

Abstract: A ceramic discharge chamber for a lamp, according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention, comprises a first member which includes a leg portion and a transition portion, wherein the leg portion and the transition portion are integrally formed as one piece from a ceramic material, and a second member which includes a body portion, wherein the body portion is bonded to the transition portion of the first member. The ceramic discharge chamber can be formed by injection molding a ceramic material to form the first member, the first member forming a first portion of the ceramic discharge chamber; and bonding the first member to a second member which forms a second portion of the ceramic discharge chamber. The members which form the ceramic discharge chamber can greatly facilitate assembly of the discharge chamber, because the discharge chamber can be constructed with only one or two bonds between the members. The reduction in the number of bonds has the advantages of expediting assembly of the discharge chamber, reducing the number of potential bond defects during manufacturing, and reducing the possibility of breakage of the discharge chamber at a bond region during handling. One or more of the members may also include a radially directed flange which allows the members to be precisely aligned during assembly to improve the quality of the lamp.

Abstract: A ceramic envelope for high intensity discharge lamp is provided including a cylindrical barrel section forming an electric discharge light emitting space; and having annular closing sections closing both ends of the barrel, respectively; and capillary sections that insert and fix an electric discharge electrode to protruded outwardly so as to be to oppose each other from the substantial center of both closing sections. The envelope essentially consists of alumina, and is formed to have light transmission properties by adding MgO. Then, the thickness of the barrel section at the boundary between the barrel section and the closing section is increased by providing a tapered section in the vicinity of the center of an electric discharge light emitting space. Thus, a high emitting envelope for high intensity discharge lamp capable of extending the service life of the lamp can be provided, even if the electric discharge space is cylindrical.
