<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve light emitting efficiency by accelerating heat discharging effect in a lighting apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: The temperature of a tube wall in a glass tube of the lighting apparatus can be lowered by having the heat generated in an electrode 3 inside a cold-cathode fluorescent lamp 2 spread to a terminal for power supply 5 since the terminal for power supply 5 which is connected to a lead line for power supply 4 is brought into contact with an exterior wall of the glass tube in the position facing the electrode 3 of the cold-cathode fluorescent lamp 2. Furthermore, by installing the terminal for power supply 5 so that it is also brought into contact with a housing, since the heat spread to the terminal for power supply is discharged outside through the housing of the apparatus, the environmental temperature inside the apparatus can be lowered. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
