Device for cooling the pinch seal of an electric lamp, and an electric lamp and an irradiation apparatus provided with this cooling device

摘要

The pinch seal (12) of an electric lamp (11) is kept during operation at a lower temperature by a metal envelope (10), space between this metal envelope (10) and faces of the pinch seal (12) being filled with a heat-conducting mass comprising metal fibers. A considerable temperature decrease is obtained when the spaces between the oppositely arranged major surfaces (13) of the pinch seal (12) and the metal envelope (10) are filled with metal fibers.
