Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a discharge lamp, which is preferably designed for dielectric barrier discharges. The innovation is that a frame is used in order to set, and secure in its position, an electrode running at a distance from the vessel faces in the discharge vessel of the discharge lamp. This frame is simultaneously used as an exhaust tube.
Claims18
A method for producing a discharge lamp (1) having a discharge vessel (2) filled with a discharge medium and having an electrode (6) running at a distance from the vessel faces (3) in the discharge vessel (2), wherein during the production of the discharge vessel (2), an exhaust tube through which the discharge vessel (2) is evacuated and/or filled with the discharge medium, and which is subsequently sealed hermetically, is applied to the discharge vessel (2), characterized in that a frame (10, 14-18) made of non-conductive material, which fixes the electrode (6) at a predetermined position in the discharge vessel (2), is arranged in the discharge vessel (2), and this frame (10, 14-18) or a part of this frame (10, 14-18) is designed and used as an exhaust tube or part of an exhaust tube.
