剥造方法に関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field A.1] This invention relates to a fluorescent lamp, particularly a fluorescent lamp in which the inner tube and the tube contain mercury. /Electronic media all over the world media
This invention relates to a taxidermy method for modifying the luminous flux rise characteristics of a fluorescent lamp.

ル管構造の小形螢光ランフが有る。As shown in Figure 6, a small fluorescent lamp intended as a replacement for a light bulb is equipped with a +'A tube (11 in V,
An inner tube (2) containing 1'F is arranged, and this inner tube (2) shares a discharge medium containing mercury (1) and 6 mercury, and there is also a small fluorescent lamp having a vacuum tube structure.
この螢光ランプは、水銀の最冷部が外管(1)の内壁に
形成されるため9点灯したとき最冷部の温度上昇に時間
がかかり点灯直後の光束立ち上りが遅いという問題があ
る。This fluorescent lamp has a problem in that since the coldest part of the mercury is formed on the inner wall of the outer tube (1), it takes time for the temperature of the coldest part to rise when the lamp is turned on, and the luminous flux rises slowly immediately after the lamp is turned on.
この問題を解決するたd〕に水銀とアマルガムを形成す
る金属を電極(31の近傍に設けることは公知である。In order to solve this problem, it is known to provide a metal that forms an amalgam with mercury near the electrode (31).

必要な水銀蒸気は主に銀リボン(4)より供給されるた
め光束立ち上り特性を改善できる。As an example of this, in the article [Luminous flux rise characteristics of a separate inner tube type spherical fluorescent lamp] published by the Illuminating Engineers of Japan, Vol. 68, No. 10, the lead of electrode (3) It is stated that the silver ribbon (4) should be attached to line 03. If you do this, the mercury in the lamp will gather on the silver ribbon (4) when it is turned off and form an amalgam, and immediately after the lamp is turned on, it will be attached to the electrode (3).
Due to the heat from the silver ribbon (4), mercury is immediately released and diffused toward the outer tube (1). Therefore, since the mercury vapor required immediately after lighting is mainly supplied from the silver ribbon (4), the luminous flux rise characteristic can be improved.

にするなどの汗意も必要となる。It must be firmly grounded so that it does not fall off during subsequent processes or during transportation. In addition, the inner tube (2) is connected to the electrode (3).
), you will also need to be careful not to get the button ribbon (4) caught.
このため多くの製造1稈と複雑な作業が(・り非工業的

設けるに際し、節部な作業で確実に出来るとともに、材
料の使用量も少なくて済む製造方法を提供することを目
的としたものである。This invention has been made to address these manufacturing drawbacks, and when providing an amalgam-forming substance near the electrode, it can be done reliably with a painstaking process, and the amount of material used is small. The purpose of this is to provide a manufacturing method that requires only a few steps.
酸化銀粉末、微量の硼酸鉛、溶剤とから成るペースト状
酸化銀混合物を電極のカラスステム表面に塗着させこの
後、酸化銀混合物をカロ熱して銀に還元させるとともに

成させるようにした。A paste-like silver oxide mixture consisting of silver oxide powder, a small amount of lead borate, and a solvent is applied to the surface of the crow stem of the electrode.Then, the silver oxide mixture is heated to reduce it to silver, and the lead borate is also melted. A silver deposit was formed on the surface of the glass stem.
通常の酸化銀は粉末状であり2粒子径も小さい。 Ordinary silver oxide is in powder form and has small particle diameters.
従って、V量的には少量でも大きな表面積を持っている
。また、金属の銀に比べて比重も軽く溶剤との濡れ性も

融して、ガラスステムへの銀の被着力を増すこととなる
。Therefore, even if the amount of V is small, it has a large surface area. In addition, it has a lower specific gravity than metal silver, and has good wettability with solvents.Simply mix this silver oxide with lead borate as an adhesive and a solvent, and apply this mixture to the glass stem. Furthermore, when this silver oxide mixture is heated above a certain temperature, the silver oxide is reduced to metallic silver, and the lead borate is also melted, causing the silver to be applied to the glass stem. This will increase adhesion.
また、加熱、還元によって酸化銀から釦になっても粒子
径の成長はあまりないので銀になっても大きな表面積を
保ったままでガラスステムに被着した状態となる。従っ
て、銀リボンなどに比べて。Further, even when silver oxide is turned into a button by heating and reduction, the particle size does not grow much, so even if it turns into silver, it remains adhered to the glass stem while maintaining a large surface area. Therefore, compared to silver ribbon etc.
重量的には少量の銀被膜であっても水銀を吸着しアマル
ガム化させるに十分な表面積を確保できる。Even with a small amount of silver coating in terms of weight, a sufficient surface area can be secured to adsorb mercury and form it into an amalgam.
