Fluorescent lamps used as exposure light sources in copying machines tend to have a tendency for light output to vary greatly depending on the temperature of the tube wall. Furthermore, due to its structure, this fluorescent lamp had a property that the temperature at both ends was high, whereas the temperature at the center was low. Therefore, in order to eliminate fluctuations in the light output of the fluorescent lamp, it was necessary to keep the tube wall temperature of the fluorescent lamp constant throughout. Conventionally, this method uses a single heater to control the temperature of the tube wall of the fluorescent lamp. However, with this method, the temperature is detected at a single point in the center of the fluorescent lamp, and the entire heater is controlled based on this temperature, making it difficult to precisely control the temperature. However, it has the disadvantage that it changes depending on the atmospheric temperature due to the season, indoor environment, etc.

The heater is equipped with a temperature sensor at the relevant location, and the temperature is controlled via this temperature sensor, and the heaters at both ends are self-control type heaters. The purpose is to provide a lighting device for

Now, when you turn on the power to the copying machine, the switches for heaters 2, 2' and heater 4 of fluorescent lamp 1 are turned on, and the tube wall of fluorescent lamp 1 is heated to a temperature at which copying is possible. Become. Copying is carried out in this state, but if the temperature of the tube walls at both ends of the fluorescent lamp 1 rises above a predetermined temperature during the process, the heaters 2 and 2' are controlled to lower the temperature. Make sure to maintain the specified temperature. The method for this does not require very precise control means, as the temperature in this area tends to be higher than that in the center.
Therefore, this is done through ON/OFF control using heat-sensitive reed relays, heat-sensitive thyristors, etc. On the contrary,
Since the temperature of the tube wall at the center is lower than that at both ends, the temperature detector 3 precisely detects changes in the temperature, and the heater 4 is precisely operated to determine the temperature of the entire fluorescent lamp 1. be in a constant state at all times.

The present invention is constructed and operates as described above, and the heaters 2, 2', and 4 are installed separately at both ends and in the center of the fluorescent lamp 1, and the control methods are different for each. By doing so, the temperature of the tube wall of the fluorescent lamp 1 can be kept constant at all times, so the light output of the fluorescent lamp itself will not fluctuate greatly, and therefore, ultimately There are two advantages: high-quality copies can be obtained, the electrical capacity of relays and thyristors can be small because the heaters 2, 2', and 4 are divided, and the above-mentioned advantage is that it is possible to obtain high quality copies. By attaching a temperature sensor to only the required part of the tube wall of the light lamp 1 to control the heater, it is possible to downsize the control circuit. If you use a constant temperature heating element using a heater with a positive temperature coefficient, such as a characteristic thermistor, by always applying a certain voltage to the heater 4, the temperature will be stable at a constant level, and there is no need to control it externally. It also has the advantage that it can be done as follows.
