Description of the Related Art Conventionally, the cathode of a flash discharge lamp, such as a xenon discharge lamp, is composed of a sintered body coated with or containing an electron radioactive substance and a rod or plate made of a conductor supporting the sintered body.

燥させることが知られている。Conventionally, the method for obtaining this cesium-containing sintered body, that is, a sintered cathode, is to impregnate the sintered body with an aqueous solution of a cesium compound, and then dry the sintered body in air or in an inert gas. It has been known.

電圧が高くなるという問題を生じていた。Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, with such a drying method, it is difficult to sufficiently remove moisture impregnated into the sintered body. Residual moisture inside the sintered cathode may be released and remain inside the tube.
As a result, there has been a problem in that the discharge starting voltage varies widely and the discharge starting voltage becomes high.

とを特徴とするものである。Means for Solving the Problems The artificial flash discharge lamp manufacturing method of the present invention involves impregnating a sintered body with an aqueous solution of an electron radioactive substance and then heating the sintered body in a vacuum to remove moisture. The method is characterized in that it includes a step of drying.
作 用
この構成により、乾燥時焼結体の水分が蒸発しやすくな

実施例
以下、本発明の一実施例についてキセノン放電ランプの
製造方法を例にとって説明する。EXAMPLE Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described using a method for manufacturing a xenon discharge lamp as an example.
まず、外径1.611Ql11長さ3.2mmのタング
ステン−ニッケル焼結体に10チの炭酸セシウムヲ含む
水溶液を含浸させる。次に、この焼結体を真空チャンバ
ー内に入れ、真空排気を行い、真空度が10−5’ T
orr台に到達した後、加熱を開始する。First, a tungsten-nickel sintered body having an outer diameter of 1.611 mm and a length of 3.2 mm is impregnated with an aqueous solution containing 10 mm of cesium carbonate. Next, this sintered body is placed in a vacuum chamber and evacuated to a vacuum degree of 10-5'T.
After reaching the orr stage, heating is started.
加熱を開始すると、水分が焼結体内部から離脱するため
、真空度が低下するので、圧力が1O−3Torr以下
になるように加熱を制御する。最高加熱温度を160′
Cとし、この温度で真空度が加熱前の状態、すなわち1
0 Torr台に復帰するまで加熱を続行すると、焼
結型陰極が得られる。When heating is started, the degree of vacuum decreases because moisture leaves the inside of the sintered body, so heating is controlled so that the pressure is 10-3 Torr or less. Maximum heating temperature 160'
C, and at this temperature the degree of vacuum is the state before heating, that is, 1
If heating is continued until the temperature returns to the 0 Torr level, a sintered cathode is obtained.
このようにして得られた焼結型陰極をピン状の陽極とと

結果となった。The sintered cathode thus obtained was incorporated into a glass tube together with a pin-shaped anode to produce 24 xenon discharge lamps (products of the present invention), and an aging (forced lighting) test was conducted. When the discharge starting voltages of these xenon discharge lamps were measured before and after aging, the results were as shown in Table 1.
一方、比較のため、従来の方法により得られた焼結型陰
極を用い、上記と同様の構成を有するキセノン放電ラン
プ(従来品)を24本製作してエージング試験をした。On the other hand, for comparison, 24 xenon discharge lamps (conventional products) having the same configuration as above were manufactured using sintered cathodes obtained by a conventional method and subjected to an aging test.
これらのキセノン放電ランプのエージング前後の放電開
始電圧を測定したところ、第1表に示すとおりの結果と
なった。When the discharge starting voltages of these xenon discharge lamps were measured before and after aging, the results were as shown in Table 1.
(以下余b) 第 1 表 なお、第1表中、枠内の余白個所は0本を意味する。(Hereafter, remainder b) Chapter 1 Table In Table 1, blank space within the frame means 0 lines.
そして、それらの放電開始電圧(平均値)を計算により
求めると、第2表に示すとおりとなった。The discharge starting voltages (average values) were determined by calculation and were as shown in Table 2.

ができたものと考えられる。Table 2 As is clear from Tables 1 and 2, the product of the present invention has smaller variations in discharge starting voltage before and after aging than the conventional product, and has a lower discharge starting voltage, resulting in stable characteristics. I know that there is. This is because in the case of the conventional method, the residual moisture varies during drying, which increases the dispersion of the discharge starting voltage, and this residual moisture has a harmful effect on the sintered cathode, which has a large amount of residual moisture.
This leads to an increase in the discharge starting voltage, whereas in the case of the method of the present invention, moisture is sufficiently removed during drying of any sintered cathode, and as a result, the above-mentioned problem can be solved. considered to be a thing.
