Abstract

Abstract Electric tungsten/bromine cycle lamps are provided according to the invention with 2,2-diamino-4,4,6,6-tetrabromo-2,2,4,4,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, 2-amino-2,4,4,6,6-pentabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine or mixtures thereof as a phosphorusbromine-hydrogen source. It has been found that these non-corrosive compounds present a very flexible possibility for dosaging the various types of lamps.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 41 words
An electric tungsten/bromine cycle lamp in which a tungsten filament is positioned in a light-pervious lamp vessel which contains an inert gas, bromine, hydrogen and phosphorus, characterized in that the envelope contains 2,2-diamino-4,4,6,6-tetrabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, 2-amino-2,4,4,6,6-pentabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, mixtures thereof or thermal decomposition products thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 41 words
An electric tungsten/bromine cycle lamp in which a tungsten filament is positioned in a light-pervious lamp vessel which contains an inert gas, bromine, hydrogen and phosphorus, characterized in that the envelope contains 2,2-diamino-4,4,6,6-tetrabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, 2-amino-2,4,4,6,6-pentabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, mixtures thereof or thermal decomposition products thereof.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 79 words
A method of manufacturing an electric tungsten/bromine cycle lamp having a tungsten filament in a light-pervious lamp vessel which contains an inert gas, bromine, hydrogen and phosphorus, characterized in that a solution of a substance selected from the group consisting of 2,2-diamino-4,4,6,6-tetrabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, 2-amino-2,4,4,6,6-pentabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine and mixtures thereof is provided in the lamp vessel via an aperture in the wall of the lamp vessel, the solvent is evaporated, the lamp vessel is filled with an inert gas and is then sealed.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 79 words
A method of manufacturing an electric tungsten/bromine cycle lamp having a tungsten filament in a light-pervious lamp vessel which contains an inert gas, bromine, hydrogen and phosphorus, characterized in that a solution of a substance selected from the group consisting of 2,2-diamino-4,4,6,6-tetrabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine, 2-amino-2,4,4,6,6-pentabromo-2,2,4,4,6,6-hexahydrotriazaphosphine and mixtures thereof is provided in the lamp vessel via an aperture in the wall of the lamp vessel, the solvent is evaporated, the lamp vessel is filled with an inert gas and is then sealed.
