Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0479087A1] The invention relates to a high-pressure discharge lamp having a rotationally symmetrical discharge vessel (19) of quartz glass, whose electrode system is fused into the bulb neck (20) by means of a molybdenum foil fusing-in technique. With the exception of the molybdenum sealing foils (24), all the metallic parts (22, 25, 26) of the electrode system which are fused into the bulb neck (20) are enveloped by profiled molybdenum foils (29, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37). This prevents the quartz glass sticking to the electrode shafts (22) and the current supply leads (26) when the sealing foils (24) are being fused in. The profiled molybdenum foils (29, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37) permit stress-free thermal expansion of the electrode shafts (22) and of the current supply leads (26), and also permit better alignment of the electrode system in the lamp bulb. <IMAGE>
