| 20080297064 | High-pressure discharge lamp and light sources device using the same - The high-pressure discharge lamp includes: a pre-seal glass inserted in the internal space of each of seal portions and integrally comprising a metal foil sheathing portion which sheathes a metal foil, an electrode sheathing portion which sheathes a portion of an electrode that extends from a first end of the metal foil toward a base portion and an external lead pin sheathing portion which sheathes a portion of an external lead pin that extends outwardly from the other end of the metal foil; and a conductor for generating discharge between the conductor and the metal foil. The electrode sheathing portion is fused to the base portion. The external lead pin sheathing portion has an outer surface hermetically fused to an inner surface of one of the seal portions. A clearance hermetically sealed between the pre-seal glass and the seal portion encapsulates inert gas therein. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20090322242 | Starting circuit of starting device for high-pressure discharge lamp including auxiliary light source, starting device including the starting circuit, and lighting system including the starting device - A starting circuit of a starting device for a high-pressure discharge lamp including an auxiliary light source has a diode placed in a forward direction in one of a pair of output lines which connect a main lighting circuit for generating AC voltage to the high-pressure discharge lamp and the auxiliary light source; a capacitor having one end connected to a cathode side of the diode; a boosting transformer including a primary winding, and a secondary winding having one end connected to an anode side of the diode or to the other output line and also having the other end connected to the other end of the capacitor; a high-frequency voltage generation circuit for continuously generating high-frequency voltage in combination with the primary winding; and a short-circuit switch for maintaining a short-circuit condition at both ends of the diode after the high-pressure discharge lamp is started. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100026726 | IMAGE PROJECTION SYSTEM BY MEANS OF DIRECT CURRENT TYPE HIGH VOLTAGE DISCHARGE - The image projection system is capable of freely adjusting a tone to suit user preferences. The system has a synchronization signal generating device that generates a synchronization signal composed of a plurality of on-off patterns in synchronism with rotation of a color filter and outputs each of predetermined power levels corresponding one-to-one with the on-off patterns to the high-pressure discharge lamp at fixed timing. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100171421 | HIGH-PRESSURE DISCHARGE LAMP - The high-pressure discharge lamp includes: an arc tube; sealing portions which respectively have preseal glasses embedded therein, and at least one of which has an inert gas enclosing space which is arranged so as to be in contact with an outer surface of a corresponding the one preseal glass; a pair of feeders including a pair of electrodes, external lead rods, and metal foils, respectively; an external conductor which is arranged on an outer surface of the one sealing portion so as to be corresponded to the inert gas enclosed space, and connected to the external lead rod from the other sealing portion; and an internal conductor which is arranged in the inert gas enclosing space in the one sealing portion, and which has an electric potential identical to that of one feeder corresponding to the one sealing portion around which the external conductor is arranged. | 07-08-2010 |
