<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid a trouble such as a disconnection at an end part of an external electrode of the fluorescent lamp when the fluorescent lamp is manufactured, conveyed and assembled to a device, etc. <P>SOLUTION: The fluorescent lamp includes: a pair of the external electrodes 12 extending onto the outer wall surface of a light-emitting tube 1, in which a phosphor layer 11 is formed on the inner wall surface and a discharge substance is sealed, along a tube axis; an insulation cap 2 mounted on one end part of the light-emitting tube 1; a pair of plate-like feeding terminals 4 which extend in the insulation cap 2 with bending parts 43 elastically coming into press contact with the external electrodes 12 on one end sides and the other end sides projected outward from the bottom surface of the insulation cap 2; and lead lines connected to the other end sides of the feeding terminals 4. The feeding terminals 4 have elastic tongue piece parts 42 springing up in the opposite direction to the light-emitting tube 1, and in the insulation cap 2, wall parts 22D are provided on which the elastic tongue piece parts 42 abuts for regulating movement of the feeding terminals 4 in the tube axial direction of the light-emitting tube 1. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
