Definitions

  • the invention is based on a discharge lamp, in which on the outside the discharge vessel at least one electrode, hereinafter also shortening called outer electrode, is arranged.
  • Such discharge lamps fall under the more general term “dielectric Barrier discharge lamps (DBD lamps) ", where here the wall the discharge vessel for the respective on the outside of the discharge vessel arranged electrode acts as a dielectric barrier.
  • the shape of the Discharge vessel plays in this context at most a subordinate Role.
  • tubular lamp types the For example, in office automation (OA) for copiers, fax machines and Scanners are used, as well as flat lamp types, which, inter alia, in the general lighting, for film lights as well as backlighting for Liquid crystal screens (LCD) are used.
  • OA office automation
  • LCD Liquid crystal screens
  • the discharge vessel consists of a flat bottom plate and a trough-shaped Front panel with a flat central area, both panels in the surrounding edge region are gas-tightly closed with each other.
  • On the Outside of the bottom plate are strip-shaped electrodes made of aluminum glued. This is especially true for large area flat lamps with numerous strip-shaped electrodes, for example a typical 42 "flat lamp Piece, not practical.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a discharge lamp provide at least one outer electrode, which is easier to manufacture is. Another aspect is the improved reliability of the discharge lamp.
  • the advantage of the solution according to the invention is that the laminate prefabricate and then completely on an outside of the discharge vessel stick on.
  • the method is also good for a automated mass production.
  • the production of the lamp thereby cheaper.
  • This solution is particularly advantageous for discharge lamps with several strip-shaped electrodes, e.g. at the in of the aforementioned US 5,994,849 disclosed flat lamp, because then All electrodes with the laminate in a single step the discharge vessel are glued on.
  • the adhesive can be separated directly before sticking the laminate on a designated area of the discharge vessel or on the laminate itself. But to simplify the lamp manufacturing, it can also be advantageous be when the laminate is already provided with an adhesive layer.
  • the adhesive layer preferably protected with a cover, the first immediately is removed before sticking the laminate. So that the adhesive layer when removing the cover does not accidentally dissolves from the laminate, points the adhesive layer preferably comprises a stabilizing agent, for example embedded in the adhesive layer fibers. Alternatively, it is suitable as an adhesive layer also a thin, serving as a stabilizing agent film, the two sides coated with adhesive.
  • the adhesive layer covers all cavities between fills the electrode tracks, so that when sticking as possible no air pockets arise. If larger air pockets form, At this point, part of the electrode tracks rises from the outside of the discharge vessel, which in the worst case to the discharge this point is missing.
  • an adhesive has proven, as in the Tape tesa 4980 from Tesa AG is used. Good results were achieved with adhesive layers, the respective thickness in the range between about 40 to 200 microns, preferably between about 60 to 100 microns. It has surprisingly been found that no undesirable large Voltage drops across the electrodes occur.
  • the laminate is oriented so that the at least one conductor track-like Electrode between the relevant outside of the discharge vessel and the carrier film is arranged.
  • This has the advantage that the carrier film except as a carrier at the same time as a protective film against external Actions and protection against contact acts.
  • the laminate is flexible. This can be done by suitable Choice of material and thickness of the carrier film and the electrode web (s) laminated thereon achieve.
  • the carrier film have electrically insulating Plastics, in particular the materials polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) or Polyester (PET) but also polyimides (e.g., Kapton) have been found suitable.
  • the thickness of the carrier film is a few microns to a few hundred Micrometer, preferably in the range between about 5 microns and 200 microns, more preferably between about 20 microns and 100 microns.
  • the least a conductor-like electrode consists of an electrically conductive Material, in particular of metal, e.g. Copper or aluminum.
  • Your thickness is preferably in the range between about 5 microns and 40 microns, more preferably between about 5 microns and 20 microns.
  • the resulting flexibility of the Laminate makes it possible, preferably an integral feed line for the at least to provide an electrode.
  • the lamp is the free end of the foil-like supply line either directly or by means of a connector connected to the supply end with the Output connected to an electrical supply unit. Is advantageous in any case, that to the usual soldering a separate supply line the discharge vessel can be dispensed with.
  • the width of the electrode tracks is of the electrical requirements of Lamp dependent. For lamps known for one disclosed in US Pat. No. 5,604,410 Pulsed mode is provided, the width of the electrode tracks typically about 1 mm or slightly less or up to a few a few millimeters.
  • the electrode webs can be screen-printed, for example from silver solder, be applied directly to the carrier film.
  • the electrode tracks can also be achieved by means of conventional etching methods from a copper foil laminated with the carrier foil.
  • the copper foil can e.g. glued by means of an adhesive layer on the carrier film be. It is likewise conceivable to apply the carrier foil directly to a copper layer Mistake.
  • a first embodiment relates to so-called aperture lamps with external electrodes, which have a tubular discharge vessel.
  • This lamp type has at least one, typically two strip-shaped outer electrodes on, parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tubular discharge vessel are oriented.
  • at least one with a carrier film laminated electrode track parallel to the longitudinal axis of the tubular discharge vessel glued.
  • two parallel electrode tracks These are in a predetermined mutual distance with a carrier film laminated. This ensures that after gluing the laminate on the outside of the tubular discharge vessel, the two electrode tracks are arranged at the desired position.
  • Laminate glued so that the aperture of the lamp, through which the light is emitted, remains free. This has compared to the conventional one Solution in which the typically glued electrodes subsequently a translucent plastic shrink tubing is applied the advantage that here no reduction of passing through the aperture Luminous flux through a shrink tubing occurs.
  • the discharge lamp a flat discharge vessel - shortening in the following also as a flat lamp designated - with a plurality of conductor track-like electrodes (electrode tracks), the evenly distributed over the surface of the discharge vessel are.
  • the electrode tracks are in at least two comb-like, interlocking Electrode groups arranged on a common carrier film. This laminate thus formed is usually on the back of the flat discharge vessel - i. the outside of the light emission direction opposite surface - glued. With the multiplicity at a large-area flat lamp required electrode paths come the beginning mentioned advantages of the invention naturally particularly bear.
  • the electrode tracks including the collection tracks, with where the electrode tracks form comb-like electrode groups and possibly Leads to these electrode groups, for example, with in the electronics usual exposure and etching process from a copper coated carrier sheet exposed or alternatively from silver solder paste by means Screen printing technique applied directly to the carrier film.
  • the must Electrode sheets may not necessarily be completely straight, but can also have a substructure, as in the following embodiment is shown.
  • the laminate prepared in this way preferably provided on the electrode side with an adhesive layer and subsequently onto a surface, e.g. the back of the discharge vessel of the Flat lamp glued.
  • FIGS. 1a, 1b schematically show a flat lamp 1 with a diagonal of 21.3 "and an aspect ratio of 4: 3 in plan view and side view, respectively.
  • the discharge vessel of the flat lamp 1 is characterized by a front plate 2, a bottom plate 3 and a frame 4 arranged therebetween, wherein the frame 4, the two plates 2, 3 connects to each other gas-tight.
  • the outermost layer of the laminate 5 forms an approximately 50 ⁇ m thick carrier film made of PET (polyester), which also serves as a protective film for it lying about 15 microns thick electrode tracks 5b (for details see Fig. 3) made of copper.
  • PET polyethylene
