Abstract

Disclosed herein are a filament lamp for heating a disk-shaped workpiece in such a way that the filament lamp rotates relative to the workpiece and radiates light thereonto. Further, the present invention provides a structure that enables the filament lamps to uniformly heat the workpiece even with respect to the radial direction of the workpiece. For this, the filament lamp includes an arc-shaped emitting part which extends in a circumferential direction of the relative rotation, and an auxiliary emitting part which is disposed inside a circle extending along the arc-shaped emitting part and extends from the arc-shaped emitting part in a direction crossing the circle. In addition, the present invention is configured such that areas of the workpiece that correspond to spaces between the arc-shaped emitting parts of the adjacent filament lamps pass just below the corresponding auxiliary emitting parts.

Claims (10)

1. A filament lamp for heating a disk-shaped workpiece in such a way that the filament lamp radiates light onto the disk-shaped workpiece while the filament lamp and the disk-shaped workpiece rotate relative to each other, the filament lamp comprising:

an arc-shaped emitting part extending in a circumferential direction of the relative rotation; and

an auxiliary emitting part disposed inside a circle extending along the arc-shaped emitting part and extending from the arc-shaped emitting part in a direction crossing the circle.

2. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary emitting part has a linear shape.

3. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary emitting part is provided in a medial portion of the arc-shaped emitting part.

4. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the auxiliary emitting part is provided in a medial portion of the arc-shaped emitting part.

5. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary emitting part is integrally connected to an end of the arc-shaped emitting part.

6. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the auxiliary emitting part is integrally connected to an end of the arc-shaped emitting part.

7. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the arc-shaped emitting part and the auxiliary emitting part are integrally formed to be round.

8. The filament lamp as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the arc-shaped emitting part and the auxiliary emitting part are integrally formed to be round.
