Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 93 words
An electric filament lamp, in particular a halogen projection lamp, in which the current supply conductors of the filament arranged at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the lamp are secured in a pinch seal present at one end of the lamp, each of the conductors being surrounded by a member which supports said conductors and is incorporated at its one end in the pinched seal and is located at its other end in the lamp space, wherein the members supporting the relative conductors have unequal lengths calculated from the pinch seal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 93 words
An electric filament lamp, in particular a halogen projection lamp, in which the current supply conductors of the filament arranged at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the lamp are secured in a pinch seal present at one end of the lamp, each of the conductors being surrounded by a member which supports said conductors and is incorporated at its one end in the pinched seal and is located at its other end in the lamp space, wherein the members supporting the relative conductors have unequal lengths calculated from the pinch seal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
An electric filament lamp as claimed in claim 1, wherein the shorter member has a length which is between 20 and 90 percent of the length of the longer member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
An electric filament lamp as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein each member surrounds the associated current conductor with some clearance.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
An electric filament lamp as claimed in claim 1, wherein the member is formed as a helically wound body.
