Description

R. ARNDT April 26, 1966 DISCHARGE LAMP ELECTRODE WITH INTEGRAL COOLING MEANS Filed Nov. 8, 1962 INVENTOR Richard Arndt BY L '7 A L, A ENT b United States Patent 3,248,591 DISCHARGE LAMP ELECTRUDE WITH INTEGRAL COOLING MEANS Richard Arndt, Berlin-Friedman, Germany, assignor to Patent-Treuhand-Gesellschaft fur elektrische Giulilampen m.b.H., Munich, Germany Filed Nov. 8, 1962, Ser. No. 236,354 Claims priority, application Germany, Nov. 10, 1961,
6 Claims. Cl. 313-217 heretofore been made from a sintered tungsten body which was provided at one end with a recess for attaching the support rod, and at its opposite or discharge-supporting end with another recess in which a swaged or tightly compacted (as by melting) plug-like tungsten insert was anchored by means of a shrink fit. This insert had a coneshaped portion that projected beyond the sintered body portion of the anode and served as an arc-hupporting tip. The electrode was fabricated in this piece-meal fashion because it was heretofore very difiicult to produce tightly compacted or swaged tungsten bodies of the required size and shape, and then to complete their fabrication by attaching them to the support rod. In addition to being difficult and costly to make, it has also been found that under certain unfavorable conditions sintered tungsten bodies, even though previously thoroughly degassed in a vacuum, may give off absorbed gases during operation which contaminate the rare gas atmosphere of the lamp and result in the premature failure of the electrodes.
It is, accordingly, an object of the present invention to provide an anode of tightly-compacted refractory metal that is smaller and has a lower surface temperature, when operated, then the prior art electrodes.
The foregoing object and other advantages are achieved according to the present invention by making the anode from a solid piece of swaged tungsten and providing annular indentations, such as thread-like grooves, in its surface which are coated with a material that increases the heat conductivity of the body portion of the anode and thus cools it by enhancing its ability to radiate heat. The coating is preferably applied to the grooved surfaces by a sintering process.
A better understanding of the invention will be obtained by referring to the'accompanying drawings, where- FIGURE 1 is a fragmentary view, mainly in section, of a high-pressure discharge lamp embodying the present invention; and,
FIG. 2 is an enlarged elevational view, partly in section, of the improved anode shown in FIG. 1.
With specific reference to the drawing, in FIG. 1 there is shown a high-pressure discharge lampcomprising a quartz envelope 1 having sealed therein the improved anode 2 of the present invention and a suitable cathode 3. The anode 2 is securely anchored in place by means of a tungsten support rod 15 that is attached to the anode and is hermetically sealed through an arm or stem 17 that is attached to and extends from the envelope. The cathode 3 is similarly held in place by a support rod 8 that is embedded in an oppositely extending stem 16.
The anode'2 comprises a solid piece of swaged tungsten which, as shown more particularly in FIG. 2, has a cylindrical body portion and an arc-supporting tip portion 10. The body portion is provided with indentations such as annular grooves 9, the adjoining lateral edges whereof are disposed at a predetermined angle ,8 with respect to each other, preferably at an angle of about These grooves serve as cooling surfaces for the anode. The depth of the cooling grooves 9 is from about one to three millimeters. In the case of a xenon high-pressure lamp designed to operate without artificial cooling and having a rating of 2500 watts, the groove depth is preferably about two millimeters.
In order to obtain the greatest possible heat conducting cross section from the front tip of the anode 2 to the peripheral surface of its cylindrical body portion, the arc-supporting tip portion 10 is flattened and conically shaped so that lines tangent to its sloping sides and disposed in an axial plane of section define a predetermined angle 7, which is preferably about 90.
The heat conductivity of the cooling grooves 9, and thus the ability of the grooved surfaces to radiate heat, is increased according to this invention by means of a sintered layer of suitable refractory material such as tungsten powder or tantalum carbide. Good results have been obtained by using a mixture of tantalum and graphite wherein the ratio of tantalum to graphite ranges from about 20:1 up to 40:1. Nickel powder in an amount up to about 10% and preferably less than 1% by weight, together with any desired quantity of tungsten powder, may also be added to the aforementioned mixture prior to sintering, or to the coating formed therefrom.
As a specific example, the grooved cooling surfaces of the anode 2 are coated with the heat conducting layer in the following manner. The anode is first mounted on the support rod and heated to a temperature of about 2000 to 2400 C. in a xacuum and kept at this temperature for several minutes to weld the anode and rod together and drive off surface impurities prior to the coating operation. The anode assembly is then cooled and the powder mixture is applied to its grooved surfaces in a suspension of butyl acetate with 5% cellulose binder. The coated anode is then reheated, preferably'by high frequency, to a temperature of about 2000 to 2400" C. in a vacuum in the order of 10" millimeters of mercury to effect the simultaneous sintering and degassing of the coating. The anode is then cooled and withdrawn from the vacuum system thus completing its fabrication.
As shown in FIG. 2, the end of the anode 2 facing the envelope stem is also cone-shaped but is provided with more gradually sloping sides so that lines tangent to such sides and disposed in an axial section plane define an angle 5 of about This end of the anode is also provided with a flat 13 and a cylindrical hole or bore 14 in which the support and conductor rod 15 (see FIG. 1) is anchored.
It has been found that making the anode from a single piece of swaged or tightly compacted tungsten body in accordance with the invention has greatly reduced the amount of gaseous impurities given off during operation. The operating temperature of the arc-supporting tip of the anode is also about 80 C. to C. cooler than that of prior art type electrodes having a mass that is about 15% larger. The use of a tantalum carbide layer on the grooved cooling surfaces of the anode has, in addition, produced a gettering effect which further improves the useful life of the lamp.
It will be appreciated from the foregoing that the objects of the invention have been. achieved insofar as an improved anode construction has been provided which not only decreases the mass and cost of the anode but enables it to operate at a much lower temperature than the prior art structures and thus prolong the useful life of the lamp. While one embodiment has been illustrated and described, it will be appreciated that various changes in both the configuration and mode of manufacturing the electrode may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
