High-pressure discharge lamp
A high-pressure discharge lamp comprising a lamp base ( 3 ), a discharge vessel, and components of an ignition device for igniting the gas discharge in the discharge vessel of the high-pressure discharge lamp ( 1 ), wherein the lamp base ( 3 ) comprises an interior in which the components of the ignition device are disposed, wherein at least the high-voltage components ( 500, 510, 520 ) of the ignition device form an assembly ( 5 ) disposed in the interior of the lamp base and having a dedicated housing ( 50 ).
1. A high-pressure discharge lamp comprising a lamp base, a discharge vessel, and components of an ignition device configured to ignite the gas discharge in the discharge vessel of the high-pressure discharge lamp, wherein the lamp base comprises an interior in which the components of the ignition device are disposed, the components of said ignition device comprising high-voltage components,
wherein
at least the high-voltage components of the ignition device form an assembly disposed in the interior of the lamp base and having a dedicated housing,
said assembly is disposed on an assembly board,
the lamp base forms a second housing having a bottom and a hood-like cover, and
said assembly board is disposed on the bottom of the second housing and the hood-like cover covers the components of the ignition device disposed on the assembly board as well as the assembly itself.
2. The high-pressure discharge lamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the high-voltage components of the ignition device comprise an ignition transformer, an ignition condenser and a spark gap or a similar threshold element.
3. The high-pressure discharge lamp as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the ignition transformer has at least one primary winding and at least one secondary winding as well as a high-voltage terminal connected to the at least one secondary winding, and wherein the high-voltage terminal has a section connected to a power supply protruding from the discharge vessel.
4. The high-pressure discharge lamp as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the section of the high-voltage terminal connected to a power supply protruding from the discharge vessel comprises a clamp contact or displacement contact.
5. The high-pressure discharge lamp as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the ignition transformer has a ferrite core, on which the at least one secondary winding is disposed.
