Abstract

The ceramics arc tube includes columniform main body, and ball ends at two ends of the main body. Central tip at the ball end is extended outward to form capillary, which is a hollow tube passing through the ball end. The method includes steps: adding 0.005-0.5% magnesia to superfine alumina powder in high purity, and mixing it to organic binder, carrying out granulating procedure; using the mixture to prepare main body, and ball ends by injection molding; assembling the main body, and two ball ends, and after degreasing it at low temperature and pre-sintering procedure, connecting the three parts to form an integral arc tube; under 1750 - 1850 deg.C, putting the pre-sintered arc tube to hydrogen sintering furnace for heat preservation for 2-6 hour so as to obtain semitransparent ceramics arc tube of alumina. Features are: assembling injection molded main body, and ball ends directly in order to suit scale production, long service life, high light effect and color rendering etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a metal halide lamp arc tube and a manufacturing method, in particular to a translucent alumina ceramic arc tube and a manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Ceramic materials have the characteristics of acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance, and excellent chemical stability. Compared with metal halide lamps made of quartz materials, ceramic metal halide lamps using polycrystalline alumina translucent ceramics as arc tube materials have high operating temperature, high luminous efficiency, low light decay, good color rendering, and long life. advantage. [0003] At present, the arc tubes of ceramic metal halide lamps are mainly made of translucent alumina ceramics, and there are mainly three types of shapes, namely cylindrical, cylindrical and conical combined, and ellipsoidal. Each type can be divided into 1-piece, 2-piece, 3-piece and 5-piece due to different manufacturing methods. [0004] C...
