The compact fluorescent lamp includes a luminous portion having one or more gas-discharge tubes and constructed as a separate starter unit which is typically an adapter connected to the plug connector luminous body, providing mechanical attachment and electrical connection. Luminous body is designed as a spiral or double helix. To obtain the minimum length of compact fluorescent lamp design is provided that the plug connection between the starter and the luminous body in a longitudinal direction of a compact fluorescent lamp at least partially been performed within a space surrounded by the luminous body.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to a compact fluorescent lamp.

Known fluorescent lamp [1], comprising a luminous body with one or more gas-discharge tubes, made in the form of a double helix, which is composed of two helices, having the same pitch and rotated relative to each other by 180 o.

The disadvantage of such a fluorescent lamp is the impossibility of a compact fluorescent lamp.

Known compact fluorescent lamp [2], comprising a luminous body with one or more gas-discharge tubes, a separate starter having a tubular body mounted for electrical and mechanical connection with a luminous body and positioned at least partially within the space surrounded by the luminous body, so that its tubular body mounted approximately centrally within a space surrounded by the luminous body.

The disadvantage of this device is that it has restricted the ability of the device compact due to the fact that the structural length is limited to a minimum length of the luminous body.

The invention is based on the task of creating a compact fluorescent lamp, occupying little space and cost-effective to implement, due to the fact that the luminous body and the starter can be a simple way to share.

Technical result is achieved due to the fact that the compact fluorescent lamp comprising a luminous body with one or more gas-discharge tubes, a separate starter having a tubular body mounted for electrical and mechanical connection with a luminous body and positioned at least partially within the space, surrounded by the luminous body, so that its tubular body mounted approximately centrally within a space surrounded by the luminous body according to the invention mounted to a starter compound of the type adapter with a luminous body through connectors, and the luminous body is designed as a spiral or double helix.

FIG. 4 - shows otedinyaemy starter provided with a connecting part for the compact fluorescent lamp according to FIG. 3, a side view.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of execution compact fluorescent lamp comprising a luminous body 1 in the form of a double spiral, a separate starter motor 2 having a tubular body 3 and partially located inside the space surrounded by the luminous body 1. The tubular body 3 is mounted approximately centrally within a space surrounded by the luminous body 1, 4 ends of glow-discharge tubes 1 arranged in the connecting ring 5. Inside the connecting ring 5 has four rigid element 6 of the plug connection which, when the starter are connected to two resilient elements 7 of the plug connector. The spring elements 7 are soldered, for example, in the printed circuit board 8 and carry out a direct connection with other electrical components 2 starter.

Hard elements 6 pin connections are as clamping connection slots 9, which can automatically connect lead wires glow-discharge tubes. Automatic connection terminals is facilitated by the fact that the rigid structure of the connector 6 provided approximately at the height of the wire leads.

Starter 2 has a connecting part 10 in the form of a threaded holder 27 Edisova E.

The ends of the 4 gas-discharge tube 1 are diametrically opposed; rigid pin members 6, joints are arranged on both sides startera.2. The spring elements 7 connector can be achieved by rigid elements 6 through the axial slots 11.

The great advantage of this compact lamp with a luminous body 1 performing the double helix is ​​that in the connecting ring 5 there are only two ends 4 and therefore in the plane of the connecting ring 5 has significantly more space for the electrical component 2 starter.

FIG. 2, 3 and 4 illustrate the fastening of gas-discharge tube 1. The casing 3 is rigidly mounted on the pedestal 12, which is rigidly connected to the connecting portion 10.

Luminous body 1 is connected with the base plate 13 in a single unit, which includes a base 12 and by turning in the recess 14 is mechanically fixed. The tubular body 3 is inserted through the hole of the base plate 13.

By combining the tubular body 3 with a cap 12 and connecting part 10 as possible and to place elements of the starter in the socket 12 and the connecting portion 10. In this way the length of the tubular body 3 can be minimized.

Execution according to the invention is characterized in addition ease of manufacture and axially direct radiation. Furthermore, in the same volume of the great length tube located.

The invention provides a broad design freedom. They may be disposed two, four, six or more glow-discharge tube, or parts thereof optionally either parallel or obliquely. The connecting portion may be threaded or bayonet, but also simple and inserted without turning to make the product cheaper for mass production.

CLAIM

Compact fluorescent lamp comprising a luminous body with one or more gas-discharge tubes, a separate starter having a tubular body mounted for electrical and mechanical connection with a luminous body and positioned at least partially within a space surrounded by the luminous body, so that its tubular body mounted approximately centered within the space surrounded by the luminous body, characterized in that the starter is mounted to compounds of type adapter with a luminous body through connectors, and the luminous body is designed as a spiral or double helix.
