Stroboscopic device with flash discharge tube having conductive film on outer periphery
View Patent ↗A stroboscopic device includes a flash discharge tube with a conductive film on its outer periphery, a conductive reflector into which the flash discharge tube is inserted, and a heat-resistant conductive medium laminated on a part of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube. The reflector is electrically connected to the conductive film of the flash discharge tube via the conductive medium. This achieves the stroboscopic device with long service life and high reliability by preventing or suppressing occurrence of spark.
1. A stroboscopic device comprising:
a flash discharge tube with a conductive film on its outer periphery;
a conductive reflector into which the flash discharge tube is inserted; and
a heat-resistant conductive medium laminated on a part of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube,
wherein
the reflector is electrically connected to the conductive film of the flash discharge tube via the conductive medium, and
a resistance of the conductive medium is lower than a resistance of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube.
2. The stroboscopic device of claim 1 ,
wherein
the conductive medium is laminated on an end area of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube, and an extended part is provided on a side of the reflector, the extended part being electrically connected to the end area of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube via the conductive medium.
3. The stroboscopic device of claim 2 ,
wherein
the conductive medium is laminated on both end areas of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube, and the extended part is provided on both sides of the reflector, a pair of the extended parts being electrically connected to the both end areas of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube via the conductive medium.
4. The stroboscopic device of claim 2 ,
wherein
the extended part further includes a holder for resiliently holding the flash discharge tube.
5. The stroboscopic device of claim 1 ,
wherein
the conductive medium is a conductive coating with a thickness thicker than a thickness of the conductive film of the flash discharge tube.
6. The stroboscopic device of claim 3 ,
wherein
the extended part further includes a holder for resiliently holding the flash discharge tube.
