である。In such a configuration, when the power switch SW is turned on at startup, the full-wave rectifier circuit 2. Boost chopper circuit 3.
Voltage is supplied to the inverter circuit 5 via the smoothing capacitor 4. At the same time as this power switch SW is turned on, the power supply voltage is also supplied to the reference voltage source VO. After the power is turned on, the voltage/frequency conversion circuit 9 operates, and the inverter circuit 5 starts switching at a predetermined frequency.
The terminal voltage applied to the discharge lamp 8 is boosted by the LC resonance effect of the capacitor 7, and a preheating current flows through the filament of the discharge lamp 8 through the capacitor 12.
lights up. The control circuit 1o is provided to start oscillation at a switching frequency that lowers the terminal voltage of the discharge lamp 8 so that an overcurrent does not occur in the switching elements of the inverter circuit 5 at the time of starting. That is,
The terminal voltage of the discharge lamp 8 is detected by a resistor 14.15, and this detected voltage is compared with the reference voltage value by a resistor 16.17.
When the detected voltage is larger than the reference voltage value, the output of the error amplifier 19 controls the input voltage of the voltage/frequency conversion circuit 9 according to the detected voltage, and frequency control is performed to increase the oscillation frequency, so that the terminal at the time of starting is controlled. It uses closed-loop control to keep the voltage constant. In this case, the above-mentioned oscillation start control is performed by applying a CR to the non-inverting input terminal of the error amplifier 19.
This is done by applying a reference voltage with a delay time constant, so that the terminal voltage of the discharge lamp 8 gradually increases when the power is turned on. This is because the output voltage of the LC resonance circuit (i.e., the terminal voltage of the discharge lamp 8) can be controlled by performing frequency control to shift the switching frequency of the inverter circuit 5 and the LC resonance frequency of the coil 6 and capacitor 7. be.

あった。However, when the power switch SW is turned off and then turned on again (or when the power switch SW is turned on and off in short cycles), the reference voltage source may be turned on again before the charge in the time constant capacitor 18 is fully discharged. Since VD is turned on, the terminal voltage of the discharge lamp 8 does not gradually rise during startup, so there is a problem that a so-called soft start does not occur and the switching elements of the inverter circuit become overcurrent.

設けたことを特徴とする放電灯点灯装置。(1) An inverter circuit that converts a DC voltage into an AC voltage by switching the oscillation frequency at a frequency from an oscillation means controlled by a control voltage, and a current limiter provided between the inverter circuit and the discharge lamp. a resonant means comprising a resonant coil and a resonant capacitor, and a booster means for increasing the voltage applied to the discharge lamp at the time of starting by utilizing LC resonance effect when applying the alternating current voltage from the inverter circuit to the discharge lamp; , detecting the terminal voltage of the discharge lamp, comparing the detected voltage with a reference voltage by a comparing means, and changing the frequency of the oscillating means according to the detected voltage when the detected voltage exceeds the reference voltage;
Means for performing closed-loop control to constantize the terminal voltage of the discharge lamp at the time of starting, wherein a time constant capacitor is connected to the reference voltage input terminal of the comparison means, and a reference voltage that rises with a time constant at the time of starting is applied. In particular, in a discharge lamp lighting device comprising a control means for controlling the discharge lamp terminal voltage to start from a low value, the voltage is applied between the reference voltage input terminal of the comparison means and its output terminal when the AC power source is turned off. A discharge lamp lighting device comprising a diode for discharging the charge of a time constant capacitor of a comparison means through the comparison means.
