Dependent claims

A rechargeable emergency lamp tube comprising:

a lamp tube holder, said lamp tube holder comprising an electric socket disposed at a front side thereof, a base disposed at a rear side thereof for connection to an AC power supply output socket to receive input AC power supply, a plurality of partition ribs spaced between said electric socket and said base, and a battery chamber holding a rechargeable battery;
a tube installed in said electric socket of said lamp tube holder and adapted to emit light upon receipt of AC power supply from said electric socket of said lamp tube;
and
a control circuit board fixedly fastened to said partition ribs inside said lamp tube holder and electrically connected to said electric socket and said rechargeable battery, said control circuit board comprising an electromagnetic wave eliminating circuit, said electromagnetic wave eliminating circuit comprised of a fuse, a control contact, an inductor, and a capacitor, and adapted to attenuate electromagnetic wave of input AC power supply from said base, a rectifier filter circuit, said rectifier filter circuit comprised of four resistors, two capacitors, a bridge rectifier, and a Zener diode, and adapted to convert input AC power supply into DC power supply and to rectify DC power supply into voltage and current of a stable pulse wave to charge said rechargeable battery, a power-failure switching circuit, said power-failure switching circuit comprised of two resistors, two transistors, and a capacitor and adapted to switch battery power supply from said rechargeable battery a power converter circuit upon power failure of input AC power supply from said base, and a power converter circuit connected between said electric socket and said power-failure switching circuit and comprised of a resistor, two transistors, two capacitors, an inductor, and a transformer, and adapted to convert DC power supply from said rechargeable battery into AC power supply for transmitting to said electric socket and said tube.
